Isaac Newton, renowned scientist and devout believer, calculated the world’s end to occur in 2060, using equations derived from biblical prophecies. According to him, it marks not destruction but a transformative era.

Newton believed the Bible was a divine revelation. He saw prophecies as “histories of things to come,” and his calculations, as noted by Stephen Snobelen of the Newton Project Canada, aimed to decipher these holy timelines.
Newton’s apocalyptic prediction came from arithmetic so straightforward a child could perform it. Using biblical time periods, he crafted his calculations, arriving at 2060 as a pivotal date.
Newton warned of “wars and cataclysms” leading up to 2060. These turbulent times, he believed, would precede a new beginning, as foretold in the Bible’s symbolic language.
For Newton, 2060 wasn’t the end but the start of a 1000-year Kingdom of God. He cited biblical prophets, envisioning an era of peace where “nations shall not lift up a sword against nation.”
Newton’s scientific brilliance extended to theology. He interpreted prophetic texts with the same rigor he applied to universal laws, believing divine truth intertwined with human destiny.
Stephen Snobelen’s research sheds light on Newton’s apocalyptic vision. He suggests Newton viewed the prophecies not as doomsday predictions but as symbolic of renewal and divine justice.
Newton’s 2060 prediction aligns with his hope for a better future. His writings hint at a world where humanity evolves toward peace and prosperity under divine guidance.
