Letter From Sir Isaac Newton in 1704 Predicts When The World Will End
Sir Isaac Newton, a renowned scientist known for formulating the laws of motion and gravity, predicted the world as we know it would end in 2060. MailOnline 17 FEB 2025 ![]() ![]() Doomsday clock ticks forward to 89 seconds to midnight, when mankind will destroy Earth ![]() ![]() Newton scrawled this ominous warning on a letter slip above a series of mathematical calculations more than 300 years ago. He believed in biblical visions of the Apocalypse ? specifically the Battle of Armageddon ? and based his prediction on his Protestant interpretation of the Bible and events that followed biblical history. This prophesied war is described in the last chapter of the Book of Revelation, and pits the forces of good (led by God) against the forces of evil (led by the kings of the Earth). Scripture states that this battle would mark the end of the world, ushering in a new era of peace brought by God. Newton used math and dates in biblical history to land on the apocalypse, employing days mentioned in scripture as years to interpret the prophecy. To him, these time periods (especially 1260 years) represented the time span of the abandonment of the Church and the rise of corrupt Trinitarian religions, chiefly Catholicism that some Protestant view as a cult. Newton studied history to determine the precise date that this abandonment formally began, and settled on 800 AD: the year that the Holy Roman Empire was founded. The year 800 AD plus 1,260 gave Newton the year 2060. So then the time times & half a time are 42 months or 1260 days or three years & an half, reconing twelve months to a yeare & 30 days to a month as was done in the Calendar of the primitive year, reads the 1704 letter. And the days of short lived Beasts being put for the years of lived [sic] kingdoms, the period of 1260 days, if dated from the complete conquest of the three kings A.C. 800, will end A.C. 2060. It may end later, but I see no reason for its ending sooner. Stephen D. Snobelen, a history of science and technology professor at the University of Kings College in Halifax, said Newtons prediction did not involve the use of anything as complicated as calculus, which he invented, but rather simple arithmetic that could be performed by a child. Newton used 1260, 1290, 1335 and 2300 days that are found in the Book of Daniel and Revelations, which discuss the end and beginning of certain times. However, he instead saw them as years using the day for a year principle, a method used to interpret Biblical prophecies that states the word day symbolizes a year. In the Book of Revelations, Christ and the saints would intervene to establish a global Kingdom of God that would reign for 1,000 years on Earth, according to Snobelen. Newton also believed that around this time, corrupt branches of Christianity would fall, and the true Gospel would be preached openly. Before the second coming of Christ, the Jews would return to Israel, according to biblical prophecy, and rebuild The Temple. ![]() While Newton did not believe the world would cease to exist in 2060, he did believe that the Battle of Armageddon would usher in the second coming of Christ and a new era of peace |
