We Might Be Closer Than You Think
No one knows (Mt. 24:36, 42, 44; 25:13; Mk. 13:32, 35; Acts 1:7)? Or, you should know (Mt. 16:3; 24:43, 48–50; Mk. 13:37; Lk. 12:37, 39, 56; 21:34, 36; 1 Thess. 5:4; Heb. 10:25; Rev. 1:1; 3:3)?
Rather than trying to argue a side, I say both are true. God lives in the deep water, my friends, and we can follow Him without trying to place Him in the box we feel comfortable with.
And when it comes down to it, if we take God's word at face value, the thrust of the message on this topic seems to be that trying to figure out the exact day with certainty is essentially a fruitless effort, however, we should be so acutely aware of the manifold signs that God has abundantly given that when the day does come we won't be surprised in the least. It will fit like a glove. And without knowing an exact date on the calendar, we can still be confident we are in the season at the culmination of a myriad of end time signs.

The Age of the Earth
Based on the Masoretic Text (MT) of the Old Testament and most pre-Masoretic extra-biblical calculations of the age of the earth, we are now living extremely close to the 6,000th year from creation. There is an ancient tradition in Judeo-Christianity that teaches that the history of the world will encompass a period of 7,000 years, mimicking the seven days of creation: 6,000 years of labor and sin, followed by 1,000 years of Sabbath, which will be the era of Messiah. This 1,000 year "Sabbath" seems like a foregone conclusion based on Revelation 20:1–6; and the 6,000 years of labor can be strongly deduced from verses such as Psalm 90:4 and 2 Peter 3:8 (also notice that Psalm 90 is where we get a biblical definition for the length of a generation; Ps. 90:10).
The problem is, while there is very clear biblical evidence that the very generation we are living in is presently within a few years in either direction of the 6,000th year, there is a lot of disagreement about exactly when that will be. According to the MT, the Flood occurred 1,656 years from creation, but beyond that, we have to rely on various secular sources to connect some of the dots, especially in the period of the Divided Kingdom. For that reason, there isn't exact consensus among those who accept the literal truth of Scripture. Borrowed from Answers in Genesis, below is a chart presenting the calculations of various chronologists for the date of creation based on the LXX (#1–5) and MT (#6–32):
Note that the first five calculations are based on the Greek manuscript tradition (Septuagint/LXX), which has a variant genealogy in Genesis adding roughly 1,200–1,500 years to what the MT contains. The MT is based on the Hebrew tradition and is what is found in the vast majority of Bibles today.
Also note that E. Greswell (#17) arrived at the same year as James Ussher, who was the most famous Christian chronologist. The 17th century Ussher calculated creation to 4004 BC based on the best available information at the time, however, there is good evidence that creation may have been a few decades later, sometime in the first half of the 40th century BC, which is where we see the largest grouping of chronologies in any 50-year period.
A few years ago I made separate cases for the Petavius calculation (3983) and Johannes Kepler's (not in the above list, but was 3977), however, Kepler's calculation may have been mistranslated into English as 3977 when it was in fact 4977.
In any case, I was looking over this chart yesterday and two calculations that I had previously overlooked suddenly caught my attention—those of Becke and Klassen (3974 and 3975, respectively). Where had I seen those dates before?
Suddenly it occurred to me that in the months leading up to September 23, 2017, when we were diligently studying to find out if an alignment similar to the Revelation 12 Sign had ever occurred before, I had discovered that the next closest match in all of history was in July of 3974 BC.
I marked the pregnancy as "No", but only because it included Mars in Virgo's womb and it wasn't quite as "perfect" as the 2017 alignment. In retrospect, maybe that was significant. Mars has always represented judgment and war. Could this have been the Fall of Mankind when enmity (war) began between the seed of the woman and the seed of the serpent? Furthermore, Saturn (representing satan) formed one of the twelve stars of the crown and was near Regulus (the king star)—perhaps representing satan, via the deception in Eden, gaining dominion over the earth by swindling Adam and Eve. He tried to set his throne above the stars of God (Isa. 14:12–15; Ez. 28:12–19).
In the alignment of 3974 BC there was also a very symmetrically-arranged crown of twelve stars, a 9–10 month retrograde of Jupiter in Virgo's womb, and the sun and moon in their proper places.
Consider for a moment the possibility that this was in fact a sign given by God at or near the Fall of Mankind when He gave the prophecy of Genesis 3:15–16 foretelling the age-long battle between the Messiah with His people (seed of the woman) and satan and the unbelievers (seed of the serpent). The imagery of a woman, serpent, and male child would form the very basis for all future prophecy, culminating with the final showdown in Revelation 12.
Given that biblical years always overlap two Gregorian years and the Fall didn't occur immediately at creation, might Klassen and Becke have both been right? They came to extremely similar conclusions. Perhaps creation was in 3975, followed by the 9–10 month retrograde of Jupiter culminating with the Fall, heavenly sign, and Genesis 3 prophecy in 3974 BC.
If that's the case, then the 6,000th year from creation would be 2026 AD (3,975 + 2,026 = 6,001 years; you then subtract one year since there is no year '0' on the Gregorian calendar). 2019 is seven years before that.
Let's take a look at the alignment of July 28, 3974 BC. This will blow your mind.
1. Saturn (satan) attempting to raise his throne above the stars of God (see Isa. 14:12–15; cf. Ez. 28:12–19).
2. A crown of 12 stars.
3. Virgo clothed in the sun.
4. Mars (enmity, war, judgment) befalling mankind. Consider also God's judgment on Eve of painful labor! Mars may have entered Virgo's womb as the judgment was given (Gen. 3:16)!
5. Jupiter in a similar location to September 23, 2017 following a 9–10 month retrograde within Virgo's womb.
6. The moon is under Virgo's feet.
Another Interesting Coincidence: In February 2017 I identified a possible astronomical sign in 2321 BC that may have signified the Great Flood. You can read about that here under the section on Aquarius. That date is surprisingly close to when the Flood would have to occur if creation was in 3975 BC. As a matter of fact, 1,656 years after 3975 BC would be 2319 BC, roughly two years after the sign, just as the Revelation 12 Sign may have been roughly two years before the beginning of the next global cataclysm (2019?).

Modern Signs
I have to give credit to brother Paul from RevelationChapter12.com for spotting some of the details in this next section. This will also blow your mind.
Think back to the 2014–15 Blood Moon Tetrad. It had been observed that a similar pattern of total lunar eclipses on Passover-Tabernacles-Passover-Tabernacles marked both Israel's reestablishment and the conquest of Jerusalem. Israel's rebirth was the ultimate end times sign, possibly marking the starting point of the Fig Tree Generation, which will survive to see all of the end of the age events fulfilled. A generation is 70–80 years according to Psalm 90:10. That means all Tribulation events may occur sometime within the 2018–28 range. We must be awfully close. Israel turned 70 on May 14, 2018 and will exit its 70th year on either May 10th (Iyar 5 on the Hebrew calendar) or May 14th of this year. Consider that for a moment.
In 2017 we pointed 70 years back to the U.N. mandate to divide the land, but that was faulty significance. The U.N. mandate failed to divide the land, and the very next year Israel became a nation, but a Palestinian state has never since come into being, thus the land has not yet been divided. "Palestine" has only been an idea—a concept in the mind of unbelievers. They haven't yet pulled the trigger.
Israel declared independence on May 14, 1948, but the very next day a coalition of Arab enemies declared war on the fledgling country. Would Israel survive? The war was bloody, lasting nearly a year, and 1 out of 100 Israelis were killed in the fighting. But with God's miraculous intervention, the country survived with major fighting ending on March 10, 1949.
The next month, precisely on Passover, the final ceasefire of the war came into effect, signifying Israel's victory and the fact that Israel was now here to stay. The fig tree had put forth leaves. This was April 13, 1949 and it also happened to be the date of the first Blood Moon in the first Blood Moon Tetrad in modern times. The first heavenly sign following the rebirth of Israel.
70 years later is April 13, 2019, seven days before Passover. Note that Israeli elections are scheduled for April 9th and President Trump and Jared Kushner have said the "Deal of the Century" will not be unveiled until shortly after Israeli elections.

| Passover 1949: The fig tree put forth leaves |
Side Note: Considering the significance of 9/23/17 being the date of the greatest heavenly sign foretold in the Bible (Rev. 12:1–2), I find it fascinating that the British Mandate for Palestine, finally securing a Jewish homeland, and triggering the Fourth Aliyah, began on September 29, 1923. Furthermore, Israel's War of Independence lasted exactly 9 months, 2 days, and 3 weeks. Clearly God controls history (Acts 17:26).
- - -
The Ultimate Deal
Why was the greatest heavenly sign in 2017? Perhaps it was a roughly two-year warning, but consider this: the Daniel 9:27 covenant is what triggers the Day of the LORD, because it is a breaking of the everlasting covenant. God judges all the nations for dividing the covenant land (Joel 3:2; read more about this here under "What's Next?"). The Trump-Kushner peace initiative is a very likely candidate for the deal, or at least the basis for a further strengthening by the antichrist once the Church is removed.
The Trump-Kushner peace initiative began on August 20–22, 2017 when Jared Kushner and other U.S. officials traveled to the Middle East to present ideas to key Middle East leaders and solicit feedback. They left for the Middle East on Sunday, August 20th, and met with Crown Prince Salman on the 22nd (their first meeting).
What's significant about those dates? Right in the middle was the Great American Eclipse on August 21st, 33 days before the Revelation 12 Sign. Perhaps God was marking the occasion: "You know, this little jaunt to the Middle East that no one is paying attention to is ultimately going to lead to the Day of the LORD." See my article The Divine Message of the August Eclipse.

Conclusion
Am I offering you a specific day or hour for the rapture or the signing of a covenant or any other major event? Absolutely not. All I'm saying is that the pieces of the puzzle are in place and we are remarkably closer than most in the world (and Church) realize. The April-May 2019 timeframe is well worth watching.
P.S. A dear sister in Christ named Lisa Leenie passed away on September 28, 2015, the date of the final Blood Moon over Jerusalem in the 2014–15 Blood Moon Tetrad. I vividly remember discussing the LORD's return with her back in the old RITAN days (Rapture in the Air Now). She was gracious, full of the Spirit, and trustworthy.
In September 1988 she had a vivid and powerful dream in which an angel handed her a scroll. On the scroll was written the numbers 11192. She was told the numbers were a date. We don't know much beyond that, but 11,192 days from September 1988 when she had the dream brings us precisely to the April-May 2019 timeframe.
God is not the author of confusion. Eventually all of these signs will lead to what we're longing for.

Still reading, Gary, but wanting to share this for what it's worth. In 2017 I did a count in the bible strictly going off the numbers presented, and then later with adding a little info from history. So this may not be exactly precise, but it's pretty mindblowing:
ReplyDeleteADAM TO THE FLOOD: 1656 YEARS
This count begins with Adam being 130 years old when his son Seth was born. I don't know if Adam's age is reckoned from the day he was created or the day he was removed from the garden of Eden after the fall. Nevertheless, here is what we're given in scripture: This is the book of the genealogy of Adam. In the day that God created man, He made him in the likeness of God. He created them male and female, and blessed them and called them Mankind in the day they were created. And Adam lived one hundred and thirty years, and begot a son in his own likeness, after his image, and named him Seth. (Genesis 5:1-3)
I added up all of the descendants given on up to the time of the flood, adjusting to add the time between Noah's birth and the flood: Noah was six hundred years old when the floodwaters were on the earth. (Gen. 7:6)
+ 2 YEARS
This is the genealogy of Shem: Shem was one hundred years old, and begot Arphaxad two years after the flood. (Genesis 11:10)
ARPHAXAD TO ABRAM: 350 YEARS
This one was a little tricky. Scripture says: Now Terah lived seventy years, and begot Abram, Nahor, and Haran. (Gen. 11:26) Assuming Abram was born first, I originally added 70 years to the count to come up with 1948 and what felt astonishing: 1948 years from the 1st Adam to Abraham, the father of Israel. However, I was wrong. Through a conversation with someone as interested in this as I (on YouTube, no less) I realized that Abram must not be the first son...but the second or last. Acts 7:2-4 tells us: “...The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Haran, and said to him, ‘Get out of your country and from your relatives, and come to a land that I will show you.’ Then he came out of the land of the Chaldeans and dwelt in Haran. And from there, when his father was dead, He moved him to this land in which you now dwell.”
Then, going back to Genesis, we read: And Terah took his son Abram and his grandson Lot, the son of Haran, and his daughter-in-law Sarai, his son Abram’s wife, and they went out with them from Ur of the Chaldeans to go to the land of Canaan; and they came to Haran and dwelt there. So the days of Terah were two hundred and five years, and Terah died in Haran. (Gen. 11:31-32)
Now the Lord had said [past tense] to Abram:
“Get out of your country,
From your family
And from your father’s house,
To a land that I will show you.
I will make you a great nation;
I will bless you
And make your name great;
And you shall be a blessing.
I will bless those who bless you,
And I will curse him who curses you;
And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”
So Abram departed as the Lord had spoken to him, and Lot went with him. And Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed from Haran. (Gen. 12:1-4)
So we see that Terah died at 205, and once he died, Abram departed from the land at age 75. This leaves Terah at 130 years old when Abram was born.
As the YouTube commenter wrote, God often chose the second or lesser to become the greater. He chose Isaac over Ishmael, Jacob over Esau, Joseph over his brothers, David over his brothers, Shem over his brothers, and so forth. So it fits that Abram was not the first son as previously supposed.
ABRAM TO COVENANT: 99 YEARS
So going back to the count of Terah being 130 year old at Abram's birth, the count turns to events rather than births.
Con't...
When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless. And I will make My covenant between Me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly.” Then Abram fell on his face, and God talked with him, saying: “As for Me, behold, My covenant is with you, and you shall be a father of many nations. No longer shall your name be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraham; for I have made you a father of many nations. I will make you exceedingly fruitful; and I will make nations of you, and kings shall come from you. And I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you in their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and your descendants after you. Also I give to you and your descendants after you the land in which you are a stranger, all the land of Canaan, as an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.” (Gen. 17:1-8)
DeleteFROM ABRAHAM'S COVENANT TO THE EXODUS & THE LAW: 430 YEARS
Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He does not say, “And to seeds,” as of many, but as of one, “And to your Seed,” who is Christ. And this I say, that the law, which was four hundred and thirty years later, cannot annul the covenant that was confirmed before by God in Christ, that it should make the promise of no effect. (Galatians 3:16-17)
EXODUS & THE LAW TO BEGINNING CONSTRUCTION OF THE FIRST TEMPLE: 480 YEARS
And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel had come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon’s reign over Israel, in the month of Ziv, which is the second month, that he began to build the house of the Lord. (1 Kings 6:1)
THE *FOURTH YEAR* OF SOLOMON'S REIGN TO THE BEGINNING OF OUR CALENDAR: 966 YEARS
This is one of the questionable figures, because history offers conflicting dates as to when King Solomon began his reign. Some say 970 BC, others put it in the 800s BC. Also, what determines BC (before the birth of Christ) and the start of our own calendar is a bit nebulous. Some say Christ was born anywhere from 3-4 BC and even earlier. At any rate, I'm calculating based on what we readily have available to go on, which is the beginning of our calendar.
+ 2017 (THIS CURRENT YEAR)
= 6000 years exactly
Delete(Apologies for all the comments! Just so excited and watching with all my heart!)
Delete"If that's the case, then the 6,000th year from creation would be 2026 AD (3,975 + 2,026 = 6,001 years; you then subtract one year since there is no year '0' on the Gregorian calendar). 2019 is seven years before that."
WHOA! This is amazing!
This entire article is giving me chills. Thank you for putting it together. Come, Lord Jesus!!
Great calculations! Is amazing how precise we can be with the time up to the Flood, but after that it gets a little more difficult depending on how one handles Abraham. The most difficult though is Solomon and the subsequent divided kingdom. Either way, we are super close to 6,000 years.
DeleteThis is INCREDIBLE,...Lyn, are you seeing this post?!!!! Gary, talk about having your finger on the pulse! Hillary your joy level is awesome to witness* Shalom people!
DeleteAdmittedly some play in the dates, but still the math & convergence of signs is so amazingly awesome! ONLY our super amazing, astoundingly brilliant beyond anything we can fathom (as we only catch glimpses) GOD could have planned and coordinated EVERYTHING to work out the way it has-is. One obvious bit of basic numbers using the 3974 BC date, 3974 + 2019 (takes into account zeroing of transitionery year from BC to AD) + 7 years' Tribulation period = 6,000.
DeletePerhaps NOT the best analogy, but it's like the guy selling Ginsu knives at the carnival. First he slices and dices and shows off what the knives can do, gets you hooked, and then closes in with, "But, WAIT, there's MORE!" God started off with signs, then more signs, and now they're all coming together for the close of the Church Age. Thank you - again, impressed with how brilliant YOU guys are and blessed in knowledge. Blessings!
Gary and Hillary, thank you for sharing this awesome stuff!!!

DeleteThe most compelling argument I've seen yet is on the YouTube channel of SR Monette. He breaks down how Daniel 9:24-27 could very well have exactly prophesied Jesus' first coming and His second coming to the day. We have to remember most current day Jews don't think Daniel's prophecy has been fulfilled yet and if you start that prophecy in 1535 when Suleiman the Magnificent decreed the walls of Jerusalem to be rebuilt you come to this Hebrew year that ends in May. Fascinating series of 5 short videos. Highly recommended. Also, as a side note, the pronoun "he" in Daniel 9:27 is not clear who it refers to - Messiah or antichrist. I even looked in the Septuagent and it has a note the antecedent of the pronoun isn't clear. We obviously think it refers to the antichrist but the current Rabbi's may very well think it refers to Messiah because in their mind Messiah hasn't come yet... which will lead them to sign a covenant with the false messiah!
ReplyDeleteReading Daniel 9:24-27 from the mindset of a Jew looking for Messiah almost has to point to Passover this year being extremely significant. There are no other commandments to restore and build Jerusalem that are even close. Supposedly multiple prominent rabbi's in Israel have said Messiah is going to appear around the election (April 9) and they're getting that from Daniel 9. I'm not very knowledgeable on dual fulfillment of prophecy but it sure seems to point to Daniel's 70th week starting at Passover this year. That doesn't pinpoint a date of the Rapture but we know it has to be at some point before then.
DeleteI thought SR Monette's theory was fascinating as well. I read about it a few years ago from someone else and discounted it because I thought surely prophecy would not use a muslim, but Cyrus was not a believer (as far as we know) and he and other unbelievers were used by God to fulfill prophecy so SR Monette's theory now make much more sense to me.
DeleteAmazing! Thank you.
ReplyDeletePersonally I had a strong impression in my Spirit when reading through the book of Jasher (chapter 6) for the first time last year. The prayer of Noah in the ark moved me greatly as I just felt (and still feel) the same since 9/23/2017 came and went without the rapture happening. I suddenly thought of perhaps having spiritually'entered the ark' on that day with a time following being shaken and tossed to and fro in the increasing speed and aggravating evil of the world we still have to endure around us. I did a research on when Noah would exactly exit the ark which was after 1 year and a few months into the next following, on the 27th day of the 2nd month which then would also correspond to our Gregorian month of May 2019 (more or less as the calendars have been corrupted a long time ago). It's just an idea from that scripture in Jasher but it stuck to my mind...
ReplyDeletehttps://www.sacred-texts.com/chr/apo/jasher/6.htm
And Noah prayed unto the Lord, and cried unto him on account of this, and he said, O Lord help us, for we have no strength to bear this evil that has encompassed us, for the waves of the waters have surrounded us, mischievous torrents have terrified us, the snares of death have come before us; answer us, O Lord, answer us, light up thy countenance toward us and be gracious to us, redeem us and deliver us. (verse 31)
AMEN, MARANATHA! Come LORD Jesus, come quickly now without any further delay!
...entirely astounding Annabel, Lord keep us!
DeleteThank you again brother Gary for another fantastic article.
ReplyDeleteI want to pass on a link to an article that I read in 2013 that has stuck with me ever since I read it. It's by Bill Koenig Who you might be familiar with. The article is about the significance of April 19-20. Since reading that article, I've always watched to see if anything BIG would happen during that time. Since then there was a lot of focus on the possibility of the Feast of Trumpets and so many other signs and possibilities, the article fell off my radar. Now it seems that this April has become a high watch period. Bill has since updated the article with some new information. I thought it worth while to pass it along to you as it might help you put another piece into the puzzle.

Yes sir , TY much bro!
DeleteI think we can all “feel” the nearness of His coming. It’s so intense. Thank you, Gary, for yet another wonderful piece that keeps us all revved up and ready to go!
ReplyDeleteGood article. I'd discount any dates derived from the LXX. The MT is God's inspired and preserved word while the LXX is satanic drivel.
ReplyDeleteA highly reasonable study to the contrary...
Deletehttps://youtu.be/VI1yRTC6kGE
WOW... AMAZING.. I don't know who to thank most:....
ReplyDeleteGARY.. wonderful article... I loved all those "we cant know the day or the hour" and the "we should know" scripture references at the start of your post.
HILARY.. Great work on the calculations...
SUPERSIGNMAN.. Yeah I seen Sr Monette's short video series, and he makes some great points about the next couple of months, being extremely high watch.
We are so close, if you listen closely, you can almost hear Jesus pushing his mighty throne back, back, excusing himself saying, "Dad, hold that thought, I will be back in a moment, actually I will be back in the blink on an eye"
:) awesome Jordan!
DeleteJordan, wonderful picture there, at the end, but remember, as Pastor Tim Henderson recently pointed out, in the Jewish Wedding Tradition it is the FATHER who decides/advises the SON as to When it is Time to Snatch the Bride, hence the extremely well-known idiom, of the time, blaring out the clue of the wedding and the Bridegroom grabbing his treasure unexpectedly, when Jesus used that very phrase, Telling ALL that 'no MAN knows the day or hour, but only my FATHER, which art in Heaven, " and the crowd knowingly nods, smiles and says, "ahhhhh, but of course!...." Maranatha
DeleteYes you are right Jimboni, indeed that very passage was in my mind after I hit the "publish" button. D'UH !!
DeleteOn take two it should have been:
...We are so close, if you listen closely, you can almost hear God whispering to Jesus, "SON it is time! Go get your bride and whisk her off her feet", and Jesus pushing his mighty throne back, saying, "OK Dad, I will be back in a moment, actually I will be back in the blink on an eye".
SEVEN Thumbs UP!
DeleteJordan dear brother, your thought just perfectly fits into the other part of an 'interrupted conversation' for the saints when the rapture happens: 2 Kings 2:11
DeleteMight be we will just 'hold our thought' when speaking to a brother in Christ as well while going up and finish our sentence in Heaven? Although I think we will be overwhelmed by what we will experience then and perhaps forget about what we were talking about but theoretically this would be the case 'in the blink of an eye'. I could imagine such e.g. when talking to my husband... Blessings to you! ;-)
Hi Annabel from 2 Kings 2 do you have any revelation on the 42 boys and the 2 bears? I know the are no insignificant details in the Bible and I know this is a type of something or there is some wisdom to be gained from understanding this.
Delete^Looked into it a bit more, interesting picture of rapture actually.
DeleteProphets warning of rapture are us the watchmen and watchwomen
Elijah is us taken away, Holy Spirit taken
Elisha a type of left behind believers, must keep their eyes on us before we are taken to remember the Gospel, receive a double portion of anointing for the trib
42 children represent 42 months or 3.5 years the children of Israel will be devoured by 2 bears, antichrist and false prophet. They who mock God, symbolized by Elisha.
*Elisha a type of left behind nonbelievers who will become trib saints
DeleteTypo!
@Steve Oh dear friend, good observations! ;-) IDK about Elisha being a type of "trib saints" left behind but here it is rather like "judgement" (Elijah) leaving and "grace" (Elisha) remaining to me. Of course, all these events have multi-layered meanings and connotations. From 2 Kings 13:20-21 I can see some "Jesus type" resurrection power coming from Elisha.
DeleteRegarding the 42 children mocking the prophet, I have those living around me (more than just 42) for years in fact so I know this must be endtimes LOL! But the number surely is a symbolic hint to the antichrist spirit as also mentioned here:
http://www.biblestudy.org/bibleref/meaning-of-numbers-in-bible/42.html
Unlike in this text, the Hebrew meaning of "little children" is really literal and NOT just "young men". The children mocking and blaspheming Jesus and his followers (the Christians) are also always getting younger today, so that makes me suggest only very small toddlers and babies to be eventually spared from judgement in the rapture. Very often today, you will meet even a 5yo already completely embracing evil and being vile in character already.
As the natural BEARs' main killing method is EMBRACING (suffocating the victim) you can also see the Vaticans' Ecumenism strategy and the Laodicean church era in this picture (joined together). Your observation about the 2 parts of political AC and false prophet will certainly also be correct. Probably the 2 bears are female because those are the ones mainly hunting? Usually, bears will also hunt and live alone except during breeding season so this is an unusual situation with 2 females anyway. Couldn't find anything specific about that.
TY for your thoughts, blessings to you!
Funny you mention Elisha..
DeleteYTC pink trees and blue bugs had a dream about Elisha and Elijah last night: (2 mins)
https://youtu.be/CcrFwWyDOjE
I have my own take on the prophetic significance of the two bears and Elijah/Elisha situation in 2 Kings 2. In fact, I wrote an article about it. Link below.

Excellent! And So Exciting!!
ReplyDeleteAlso your 11192 made me jaw drop. Not more than a couple weeks ago I had a dream where I visited my old college dorm. I noticed the number on the door was 2292. (Not my actual dorm room number). But upon waking that number stuck with me. I dissected it several ways and finally settled on what made most sense. I broke the 22 in half to be two elevens, and the 9+2 is a third eleven, being 3:11.
Another option was that I was 22 when I went to college in ‘92. I don’t know, this just sticks in my mind.
I so appreciate your website, articles and fellowship I find here with all my brothers and sisters! God bless and Maranatha!!
Not sure the start of creation is when the 6,000-year clock starts. But, rather then fall of man being the start of that clock. ;-)

DeleteSometime in April-May is the seventeenth day of the second month, the EXACT day that Noah entered the Ark (Gen. 7:11).
DeleteAnonymous I believe I looked into the idea that it's on April 19th a few weeks ago.
DeleteAlso note the 'Breba crop' is a crop of figs from the fig tree which actually stay on through the winter and then fall off in spring. As many unripe figs shaken by a mighty wind... Or as 'winter fruit', which make it thru and come to full ripeness in winter and then fall off in spring... seems fitting.
Since the Tu B'shevat is for "watching" and "new year for trees" and we had the most recent blood moon (Jan 21st) after the 1 year (to see if the tree produces more fruit or else it can be hewn down) which was also a blood moon on the previous Tu B'Shevat exactly one year before...
And the 3 supermoons 3 months in a row. Jan 21, Feb 19, March 21st (Purim)... but March 21st is ACTUALLY PASSOVER! Torah calendar has extra (pregnant) month being added in 2020, not 2019. So the jewish ppl will likely be celebrating Purim when it's actually passover... (Sorry for those who already know this, I'm rambling)... Then they will celebrate Passover on April 19th.... Hmmm.

And DARKNESS DESCENDING I've always loved your site just FYI: waiting for new articles and checking daily.
ANONYMOUS ... I'm actually working on one right now that I consider to be one of the crown jewels of the sight. I've been working on it for a few months now, but unfortunately, life gets in the way if I can say it like that and I don't always have time to work on it. However, I have gotten some time back lately and almost to completion of my current article I'm working on. I hope to have it done and published by tomorrow night, but if not, definitely during the week next week. As a matter of fact, I have had this current unpublished article confirmed to me by the Lord in a most unique and interesting way. I plan on sharing that story at the end of the article. Stay tuned.
DeleteAnd that's a wrap. I'm done with the article and it is now published and ready to read. Enjoy. I would consider this to be some good ground N' pound.

Delete"The Greeks wrote of those days in their Arcadian mysths"
"mysths" or "myths"?
Richard Faulkner ... Lol ... thanks for the heads up on that. I meant myths. I will correct it. After I had hit the publish button last night, I went through the article to correct any mistakes like a usually do and found a few spelling snafus, a few places where I could have inserted this or that and took out this or that, even found where I quoted a scripture, but gave the wrong scripture reference, but I missed the "myths" mistake. I'm a stickler for perfection when I do these articles.

Delete"This particular them [sic: theme] behind this movie"
Richard Faulkner ... Right on 👍 😆 Looks like I'm on a role.
DeleteA white horse carrying a rider with a bow was marked in the sky a few days ago and I see not talk of it here. Sirius is the white horse. It was occluded for a few minutes by an asteroid. In other words it was eclipsed. The path of the eclipse passed over Venuzuela. The US and its vassals in Europe want Venuzuelas oil and gold. They pretend to offer aid to Venuzuela to stage a false flag provocation in order to mask their desired to militarily intervene in the affairs of that soveriegn state. Russia will defend Venuzuela if the US attacks. The exceptional nation is broke and it wants to steal the gold and oil assets of Venuzuela in the name of democracy... although Venuzuelans support their elected president Maduro. The Guaido regime change obama lookalike puppet is a mason in the same lodge as Soros. What is the USA nowadays.?

ReplyDeleteWhere We’re Headed
Long ago, the prophet Ezekiel described an invading force that will form in the last days. In Ezekiel 38-39, he describes this force in detail. Ezekiel said invaders will come from the north of Israel, and a man named Gog will lead them (Ezekiel 38:2-6). Here are the nations who will join Gog, followed by their modern-day names:
Rosh = Russia
Magog = Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Afghanistan
Persia = Iran
Cush = Sudan
Put = Libya
Meshech, Tubal, Gomer, and Beth-togarmah = Turkey
Notice anything? That’s right. The three most powerful nations on the list – Russia, Iran, and Turkey – now reside in Syria. If U.S. troops pull out of Syria, their absence will pave the way for further influence in Syria from these three nations. They’ll consolidate their power until every square inch of the nation becomes a de facto province of one of the three. On February 14, the leaders of Russia, Iran, and Turkey met in Sochi, Russia, to devise a joint plan to wipe out terrorists in Syria. Their military forces are now cooperating in Syria. This puts their joint military forces right on Israel’s border. And not just any border – Israel’s northern border. Ezekiel said this invasion force will come from the north (Ezekiel 38:15; Ezekiel 39:2). So now we have the three most powerful nations in Gog’s invading force cooperating with each other and stationed on Israel’s northern border. Is this mere coincidence? I don’t think so.
Never before have the military forces of these three nations been on Israel’s northern border at the same time. And never in the history of the world have the three cooperated militarily. Until now… The Bible said this would happen, and here we are.
( from Rapture Ready article on February 20)
I never saw any contribution to this war situation by Lybia or Sudan yet. Not one during the last few years. If they're missing in the list today this cannot be prophecy properly fulfilled.

The Beast from the Sea
13 Then [a]I stood on the sand of the sea. And I saw a beast rising up out of the sea, having [b]seven heads and ten horns, and on his horns ten crowns, and on his heads a blasphemous name. 2 Now the beast which I saw was like a leopard, his feet were like the feet of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority. 3 And I saw one of his heads as if it had been mortally wounded, and his deadly wound was healed. And all the world marveled and followed the beast.

I don't know if it is significant or not, but the EuroVision Song Contest 2019 will be held in Tel Aviv in May. The finale will be on May 18. Americans are not very familiar with EuroVision, but it is a big deal in Europe, and Israel is a participating country in spite of not being in Europe. Since they won the contest last year they get to host it this year. It will draw a lot of attention to Israel from Europe, and it may be happening around the time of the roll out of Trump's peace plan.
ReplyDeleteI have always asked myself how Israel can be part of an "Euro" vision contest anyway.
DeleteGary,
ReplyDeleteAn excellent recap and introduction of new astronomical elements to the mix! I think you're onto something with the ancient alignment of July 28, 3974 BC. That alignment speaks volumes to me!
You are right in saying,
"when it comes down to it, if we take God's word at face value, the thrust of the message on this topic seems to be that trying to figure out the exact day with certainty is essentially a fruitless effort, however, we should be so acutely aware of the manifold signs that God has abundantly given that when the day does come we won't be surprised in the least. It will fit like a glove."
The same conclusion came over me recently as I have been studying the ministry of the two witnesses to come. For all of our searching and study we will not know with certainty until the Day and Hour arrive. Even if we DID KNOW the Day and Hour before hand; what good would it serve? The world (and most of our brothers and sisters in Christ) would not believe it with certainty. Only the Holy Spirit can overcome that level of scepticism. All that it would serve are those who are either already "in the know" or those who are "encouraged to know" that the Day and the Hour are close.
My prayer is that when the Day comes that it does fit like a glove!
Amen.
Amen, Richard! My thought also was that the living saints should not be in advantage of someone physically passing away who also can perhaps feel the day of his death approaching but not (yet) knowing exactly. Example: 2 Kings 13:14 / 2 Kings 20:1
DeleteIsn't it interesting that as the Trump-Kushner initiative peace deal looked to split the land of Israel, so did the Great American Eclipse completely dissect the US from one end of the land to the other.
ReplyDeleteAnother huge sign? Israel launched a satellite yesterday,Feb. 21, 2019, which will land on the moon April 11. It will be Israel's first time on the moon and they will join the U.S., Russia and China as the only nations to do so.
ReplyDeleteThe satellite is called Beerisheet -which is the Hebrew name for Genesis - literally "In the beginning". It will have an Israeli flag, the Hatikva ( Israeli National Anthem), and the Tanakh (Old Testament in Hebrew.)
Adding to the significance is the timing : right after the elections in Israel; right before Passover; and purportedly right before the big reveal of Trump's peace plan.
God drawing all eyes to Israel as Jacob's trouble is about to commence?
Wow...reading the scriptures today is like reading a newspaper. Everything coming together just like the Word of God said it would long ago. Come Lord Jesus.
ReplyDeleteRight after the September 23, 2017 Great Revelation 12 sign appeared and we found ourselves still here I saw a 2 year cycle in the Blood Moons and from the final blood moon to the Great American Eclipse and Rev 12 sign another 2 year cycle. I'm wondering if He is showing us these signs in 2 year cycles warning us to get ready to meet Him in the 2nd year of the final cycle. When we count 726 days from 9/23/2017, in the same manner we counted 726 days after the final blood moon to 9/23/17, we come to September 19, 2019. I realize that does not fall on any significant feast days or anything else but I do find it interesting. After all, Jupiter did exit the womb of Virgo 14 days prior to the Feast of Trumpets and the great sign in 2017. This year, in 2019, September 19 is approximately 11 or 12 days prior to the feast of Trumpets on the 30th. Food for thought.
ReplyDeleteI also reread Exodus 12 and realized that Passover was a great Exodus for the people of God. Jesus died on this very day, Passover. He left the earth on Passover. How fitting would it be if the Head of the body left on Passover and 2000 years later the rest of His body left on the same Passover in a great exodus as well? Just saying.
Furthermore, I also see God warning whosoever will look up and listen for 6 or 7 years prior to the great event of the catching away. That is just like God.
Delete2 + 2 + 2 = 6
Now if you throw in the comet Ison from 2013 as a solid sign from heaven we can add 1 more year to that for a total of 7. 7 years of warning before 7 years of great tribulation is in character for Yahweh.
SOME OF MY RECENT OBSERVATIONS
ReplyDeleteThe point of my studies has been to understand how the pieces of the puzzle fit together with respect to Scripture. This has me working with a few assumptions,
1. The Great Sign that began on 9/22/17 is a reference (beginning) point
2. We are given day counts relative to the end of the Tribulation (1260/1290/1335)
3. The first Sabbath was what we call today Shabbat HaGadol (the Great Sabbath)
Spring is preceded by Shabbat HaGadol (The Great Sabbath) and bookends Passover, Feast of Unleavened Bread, Feast of Weeks and Feast of Trumpets with Shabbat Shuba (Sabbath of Return). Day of Atonement and Feast of Booths fall outside of this Sabbath (Shabbat) cycle. I find it most interesting that the Equinox *may* begin the counting of days and that a Sabbath is when the count *may* have began!
If starting with the beginning of the Great Sign (on the Fall Equinox, 2017) and use the prophetic year (360 days or a "time") as our timescale AND visualise this timescale as a clock (or compass) broken into 90-degree segments, we see,
Fall, 2017 -to- Spring, 2018 = Half a time (180 days)
Spring, 2018 -to- Spring, 2019 = A time (360 days)
Spring, 2019 -to- Spring, 2020 = A time (360 days)
Spring, 2020 -to- Spring, 2021 = A time (360 days)
...or "a time, two times and half a time". What scripture lays out as 1,260 days may be represented as 180 + (360 * 3). If you use the lunar (Hebrew) calendar then the days will be slightly different due to the varied length of months and an added leap year (5779). (I use the Spiritual calendar not the Civil calendar). Continue the count and you have,
Spring, 2021 -to- Spring, 2022 = A time (360 days)
Spring, 2022 -to- Spring, 2023 = A time (360 days)
Spring, 2023 -to- Spring, 2024 = A time (360 days)
Spring, 2024 -to- Fall, 2025 = Half a time (180 days)
...once again totally 1,260 days. Note where we begin and where we end! The day count begins and ends with Fall (meaning the Fall Festivals). So if that is our "beginning to end" count, our calendar *may* fit inside of these days.
We know how many days the elect of Israel will be nourshed in the wilderness (1,260), and we know how long it is from the taking away of the regular offering and the abomination that makes desolate (1,290). (Note: I am coming of the belief that the removal of the church is NOT the taking away of the regular offering - another day another posting if you will). We know how many days one must wait to be blessed! (1,335). We also know the length of the ministry of the two witnesses. (1,260) All of these day counts point to the end in the Fall of 2025 if according to this timeline and MAY NOT EXIST ENTIRELY IN TRAIN, END-TO-END, BUT MAY OVERLAP.
SOME OF MY RECENT OBSERVATIONS (Cont)
DeleteCOUNTING SABBATHS
I am using the Sabbath as a counter and counting Sabbath days since the beginning of the Great Sign. Doing so you get some very interesting results. When counting Sabbaths SINCE THE GREAT SIGN you find the following,
+55 Sabbaths = M7D26 on Spiritual calendar, Parashah #1, Beginning of Torah Readings (Genesis 1:1-6:8). Note how the Torah readings begin month 7, day 26, a potential nod to Strong's (G726) being "ἁρπάζω" (harpazo) meaning to "to seize, catch up, snatch away" or what we otherwise understand as "rapture".
+66 Sabbaths = Winter Solstice (12/21/18)
+70 Sabbaths = Super Blood Moon (1/21/19)
+77 Sabbaths = Spiritual New Year (3/9/19)
+80 Sabbaths = Spiritual Passover, Feast of Unleavened Bread VII / Red Sea Crossing
+83 Sabbaths = Civil Passover / Spiritual Second Passover (88-days since Super Blood Moon and meteoroid impact 36-seconds after totality began)
88 Sabbaths = May 24/25, 77 days since the Spiritual New Year began, 1,263 days until the Blood Moon of November, 2022. A potential fit for the ministry of the two witnesses? (Revelation 11:3-9)
LOOKING FURTHER AHEAD
If to count from the Super Blood Moon over all of the Americas that occurred near the Beehive Cluster ("Manger") in the Constellation Cancer forward 360 Sabbaths you land on Hanukkah I, 2025. Counting from the beginning of the Great Sign on 9/22/17 430 Sabbaths you land on Hanukkah I, 2025. Both counts are bound by an offset of 70 weeks. See this article from Chuck Missler for some interesting reading on these counts,
Ezekiel's 430 Days - Timely Speculation?
As I have been looking at potential timeframes for the ministry of the two witnesses (Revelation 11:3) I was taken by the timing of a May 24th, 25th arrival. This day is 77 days after the Spiritual New Year and falls on the 88th Sabbath since the beginning of the Great Sign. This Sabbath is called "Shelach" which means "Send" and includes Torah readings (Numbers 13:1-15:41) and Haftarahs (Joshua 2:1-24).
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE TORAH AND HAFTARAH READINGS!!! They cover the spying out of the land of Canaan and the spying out of Jericho. Two spies in the land? Two sent before judgement is brought on Jericho?! A city (civilization) destroyed how? By fire?! Hmmm, sounds more and more like a parallel to the two witnesses sent by God to Jerusalem to witness for 1,260 days. I have a whole separate post I can make on the two witnesses. Another time perhaps.
If the two witnesses of (Revelation 11:3) were to come on that day 5/24/19-5/25/19, the days Torah readings certainly do reflect it! Add 1,260 days to 5/24-5/25 and you land 3-1/2 days before the total lunar eclipse that with cover the whole of the Pacific Basin and Ring of Fire!
November 8, 2022 Total Lunar Eclipse (Blood Moon)
A future Purim is another candidate date that I am considering. Much yet to be covered!
IN CLOSING
All is part of a model I have been working with as I pick it apart in my daily studies. It is not meant to arrive at a date of the Resurrection/Rapture but a study tool in an attempt to fit together the puzzle pieces of Scripture into a cohesive picture that fits the Hebrew Spiritual calendar and our modern Gregorian calendar. Yes, I would like to "know" the day; but it would only benefit me as I could not *prove* that I was right. That I may encourage another? Yes, I can and hope to do that!
Please forgive any typos! I haven't had the time to fully edit this as I would have liked.
Happy Hunting!

A FOOTNOTE
DeleteThe Fall Equinox, 2017 began at 20:01 UT on Friday, September 22nd, 2017. The Great Sign began September 22/23, 2017 with Shabbat Shuba seven (7) days later on 9/30.
May it be that the Great Sign will *end* on September 22/23, 2025? Fall Equinox will occur at 18:20 UT on Monday, September 22, 2025...AS WELL AS A PARTIAL SOLAR ECLIPSE! Shabbat Shuba is five (5) days later. End-to-end the equinox falls on the same day.
Beginning and the end, the Day of Trumpets, Yom Teruah? According to this timeline it certainly could be. If so, then we may be lighting the first candle of the menorah for the Feast of Dedication on Millennial Kingdom Day 1....Hanukkah I, 2025.
September 23rd is a day dear to our family as it also happens to be my wife's birthday.
What a birthday present that would be!!!
I can only imagine.
Richard, I TRULY don't want to live through another crucial summertime season like the last one in 2018 and we might hopefully leave before... But if it is Gods plan so be it. TY for all your through studied, Gods will be done, blessings to you! MARANATHA!

Pastor Rich; always love your comments.
Darkness Descending; love your site always waiting for new stuff.
P.S had a great, vivid vision-like dream of myself writing down: 17th , Midnight.
Don't know what month or on what calendar but I found it interesting since I had been researching and asking about the 21st of March and the 19th of April...
Anon,
DeleteI don't know and am not saying that this has anything to do with your dream, but the end of the timeline that I have been working with is M9D25 or what we otherwise know as Hanukkah. In 2025 Hanukkah I falls on Wednesday, December 17th (according to the Spiritual calendar).
LOOKING AT SKY GUIDE
Looking as the night sky above Jerusalem at midnight on Wednesday, December 17th, 2025 we see,
1. Virgo rising in the East
2. Jupiter in Gemini (near Pollux)
3. Uranus (Heaven) abreast the Pleiades in Taurus
4. Saturn conjuncted with Neptune in Pisces below the Western horizon
5. Sun, Moon, Mercury and Venus in opposition to Mars between Sagittarius A and Scropius X-1. (Mars is in Sagittarius near the galactic core)
This is very interesting as in this I *personally* see the following...
ANGELS
If we understand the planets and stars as messengers then we may also call them "angels". The word "angels" is derived from the Hebrew word "מלאכים" (Malahim) meaning messengers.
Natanel Barak of the Israel Institute of Biblical Studies has an entertaining and informative introduction to angels in the Hebrew Bible.
So, if we are on the same page regarding what a messenger (angel) is, then we may understand the wandering stars (planets) as angels just as the Bible refers to stars as angels. In a sense, they are all messengers.
The sky over Jerusalem will be dominated by Leo in the East with Regulus (the king star) and bright Jupiter (man-child of Revelation 12) in Gemini high overhead. Opposite of Gemini is Taurus the bull. That is interesting to me considering the roots of the Hebrew alephbet and the image of the bull.
(Continuing...)
DeleteALEPH
For that, see Ancient Hebrew Research Center for an in-depth introduction to ancient Hebrew.
See this article for a primer on ancient Hebrew The Ancient Semitic (Early) Alphabet. In it the author explains the early roots of the Hebrew language and the symbolic meaning of the characters.
Quoting, The Ancient Semitic (Early) Alphabet by Jeff Benner,
"Each letter represents a sound and a concept. The first letter, (Note that Hebrew is read from right to left), is the aleph (pronounced ah-leph) and represents the 'Ah' and 'Eh' sounds. Aleph is a Hebrew word meaning 'ox,' and this letter is a picture of an ox head and represents the concept of "strength,' from the strength of the ox.'"
When looking at Taurus I cannot help but see a GIANT ALEPH in the stars. YMMV. But if Taurus was a symbol of power or strength then the next symbolic element makes a lot of sense. At this time we see the planet Uranus in Taurus and very near the Pleiades.
HEAVEN (THE HEAVENS)
Uranus gets it's name from the Greek god Οὐρανός (Ouranos). See Wikipedia's Uranus (mythology) for more on that. You will also want to reference Biblehub.com and their concordance for (G3772),
Strong's Concordance (G3772)
ouranos: heaven
Original Word: οὐρανός, οῦ, ὁ
Part of Speech: Noun, Masculine
Transliteration: ouranos
Phonetic Spelling: (oo-ran-os')
Definition: heaven
Usage: heaven, (a) the visible heavens: the atmosphere, the sky, the starry heavens, (b) the spiritual heavens.
Uranus (Heaven, the heavens) is seen in the company of the Pleiades, also known as the "seven sisters".
Hmmm, seven sisters, seven stars, seven lampstands, seven churches?
Time to get your Bibles out and prepare to start digging. Too much to unpack here without writing a sermon. I will leave it to you to prayerfully dig on these subjects. The resources provided above are enough to get you started on that!
Putting all of this symbolic imagery together may we see the congregation of the seven churches before the throne of heaven seated in power? Perhaps.
EAST TO WEST
The Western sky is where you will find Saturn and Neptune in conjunction in the constellation Pisces. Hmmm, Saturn the sixth planet is in opposition to Jupiter the fifth planet. One in the east...one in the west.
East to west, now where have I heard that before?
Saturn is in company with Neptune. Wikipedia has an interesting bit on the mythology of Neptune.
Quoting, Wikipedia,
"Neptune was the brother of Jupiter and Pluto; the brothers presided over the realms of Heaven, the earthly world, and the Underworld."
Hmmm, if we were to take it that Neptune were to symbolise a presiding power of the heavens then it's proximity to Saturn is interesting. Check-out the mythology of Saturn.
Quoting, Wikipedia,
"[Saturn] god of generation, dissolution, plenty, wealth, agriculture, periodic renewal and liberation"
Hmmm, Saturn, god of plenty, wealth, liberation. Rebellion even? I suppose that depends on your perspective doesn't it. Saturn is also know as the god of agriculture. That too is an interesting symbol.
What was the offering that Cain brought before the LORD? See (Genesis 4:3) for that. Was not Cain "a worker of the ground"? (Genesis 4:2) More parallels or is my imagination getting away with me?
So how may we see the symbolism of Neptune and Saturn? And where are they? In Pisces.
More to come...
Anon, I find your 'Breba crop' comment very compelling! Thank you for that hint! Blessings to you, MARANATHA! :-)
DeleteHmmmm ... this Saturn significance is a major part of my next article, that I will have posted later today or tonight.
DeleteSUPREME SUPREMACY
DeleteThe observations that I have been making here rely heavily on symbolism. They make certain assumptions, not the least of these being the fact that God is sovereign over all things. All things. God can and does use all things according to His purpose. The enemy has attempted to obfuscate purpose and message via distortion and perversion of the truth through sin.
With that said, I believe that what we know as the cosmos, constellations and stars and the original meaning and story told by them has been lost in time due to the fall of man and sin.
Jewish scholars study what they call the Mazzaroth.
Quoting Wikipedia,
"Mazzaroth is a Biblical Hebrew word (מַזָּרוֹת Mazzārōṯ, LXX Μαζουρωθ, Mazourōth) found in the Book of Job and literally meaning 'a garland of crowns'. but [sic] its context is that of astronomical constellations, and it is often interpreted as a term for the zodiac or the constellations thereof. (Job 38:31-32). The similar word mazalot (מַּזָּלוֹת) in 2 Kings 23:3-5 may be related."
Mankind has always looked to the stars and it is of no wonder. Adam and Seth were the earliest astronomers. They knew that the stars held no sway on mankind, God does. With the same knowledge we may look to the stars understanding that God Himself has placed them there each one according to His purpose.
31 "Can you bind the chains of
the Pleiades or loose the cords
of Orion?
32 Can you lead forth the Mazzaroth
in their season, or can you guide
the Bear with its children?
33 Do you know the ordinances of
the heavens? Can you establish
their rule on the earth?
(Job 38:31-33 ESV)
The words of the Father Himself! Thus I ask the question, may we understand human mythology as having corrupted and distorted the ordinances of the Mazzaroth so to confuse and obfuscate God's true meaning?
I believe it is a reasonable line of though to explore. Thus this posting...
THE SKIES OVER JERUSALEM
At midnight on the morning of Wednesday, December 17, 2025, the skies over Jerusalem hold Uranus (Heaven) in Taurus (power/strength) in tandem with the Seven Sisters (lampstands/churches) known as the Pleiades. Jupiter is in Gemini near Pollux and Leo has risen above the Eastern horizon with Regulus (king star) leading the way. Orion (symbolic Christ) stands in the centre of the Western sky framed by Jupiter (king planet/man-child of Revelation 12) on his right-hand and Uranus (Heaven) on his left.
No other planets are visible in the skies over Jerusalem at midnight.
THE SKIES OF NORTH AMERICA
DeleteWhen I started considering the question of your dream Anon I thought about where the Sun would be in the sky? If 12/17/2025 were Kingdom Day 1, where would the sun be? In what constellation?
It struck me that no constellation properly represented a time of the *end* -- or in this case, a time of the *beginning*. The winter months have the Sun very near the Galactic plane. On looking it up in Sky Guide guess what I found. The Sun will be right at the Galactic plane on 12/17/2025 or M9D25 (Hanukkah Day 1).
When observing the stars from North America at 5 pm (Eastern) / 12 am (Jerusalem); joining the Sun are Mercury and Venus in the constellation Ophiuchus with Comet Wirtanen exiting Libra and the New Moon opposite Wirtanen in Scorpius. And what do we find just on the other side of the galactic plane?
Mars.
When viewed through visible light there is nothing remarkable about the scene. When viewed through Gamma Rays Mars is completely cut-off from the other planets and the Sun. It's as though the galactic plane were a barrier of separation between the inner family of planets and the fourth planet of our solar system. View it again in X-rays and Mars seems surrounded by a host of ghostly stars dotting the chasm which is the plane of the galaxy.
And what lies at the heart of our galaxy? A super massive 27 million km wide black hole called Sagittarius A containing the mass of over 4 million Suns. It is a place of complete separation from the cosmos. Not even light can escape its gravity. It is quite literally an abyss.
Where is Mars?
Standing before the abyss.
All of this is visible in the Western skies when seen from North America at about sunset on the evening that begins Hanukkah. It stands in contrast to the scene above Jersualem. Total contrast.
Taurus is rising in the East with Uranus abreast the Pleiades. Saturn and Neptune are high in the Southeastern sky in Pisces. The Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars setting in the West.
Powerful and poetic imagery.
CLOSING COMMENTS
So far I have described physical locations of the stars and planets on a day that is the 17th of the month and at midnight in Jerusalem. Is it a match to your dream? Maybe? Maybe not.
But I thought I would share these observations as they are interesting and it is worthy to share what is coming on what may be the Day of days. Perhaps some of this information may kickstart a Bible study?
One more note: Some sources claim that Orion is representative of the Christ. A deeper study may not support that. I have not dug in depth on that point myself so suggest you dig on these representations yourself using Scripture as your guide.
In retrospect I would not have mentioned that in my earlier post. Not having a mechanism to edit posts makes changes impossible without destroying the flow of long posts like this. I have therefore chosen to mention that here instead of break-up the flow of this post.
Happy Hunting,

Doesnt the 7 years of tribulation start with the signing of the peace plan? If so, then even if its unveiled after the April election, does not mean it will be signed then. I'd say with the partys involved it would be months before their is an agreement. Wouldn't be surprised if the signing of it happens in September....

ReplyDelete"Sirius’s shadow will cross southern parts of Chile and Argentina, Central America and the Caribbean. This will happen on Feb. 18th between 09:11 pm PST and 09:27 pm PST.
"According to David Dunham of the International Occultation Timing Association, the eclipse could last for as much as 1.8 seconds, with Sirius fading to minimum brightness for 0.2 seconds of that time. The angular diameter of Sirius is 0.006 arcseconds. Asteroid Jürgenstock is just a little wider: 0.007 arcseconds, so theoretically Sirius should be completely blocked. “But the asteroid may be a little larger or smaller than predicted, and it’s likely to be irregularly-shaped, so there is a good chance that even at the center, the star will not completely disappear,” notes Dunham.
Named after Venezuelan astrometrist Jürgen Stock, asteroid 4388 Jürgenstock orbits..."

Doing research around your statements concerning Sirius riding a white horse, having a bow, etc. and would love some sourcing on these to abate my ignorance. Interesting to see, however, that it's single reference in their holy work, entangled with the word 'Bow', is considered a proof-text of the divinity of their fallen one and his writings, though I will decline sourcing that so as not pollute this page.

ReplyDeleteRichard, Gary, or others,
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know the Hebraic meaning behind 2026 (Gregorian year in 7rs.) and 5786 (Israel year in 7yrs)? I realize that the Gregorian and Hebraic year markers are off, but as God would have foreseen that, I'm curious as to what the numeric meaning for each year might suggest.

Delete[Boy it sure would be nice to have an edit function after posting]
DeleteOne more try!
Meaning of 2026 and 5786?
Short of the core essentials of Bible canon for which we all agree, I'm not entirely sure of the meaning of the things I write about! I share observations and questions based upon Biblical truths and look for avenues where Scripture interprets itself. The LORD knows the mind of God for the meaning of such things.
With that in mind I expect (and assume) many meanings to a given sign. Like light shining through the facets of a diamond, it streams from a singular source in different directions and colours based upon perspective and the lens through which you view it. What one angle hides another reveals.
With that said, these years give an indication of where we are since Creation Day 1. (Yeah, everyone knows that). I would look into the 2,026th and 5,786th verse of Torah. (That has been getting "popular" lately). There may be significance in parallel day counts, who knows. It is not a question I have been asking, but a little prayerful digging and study and you can be on your way to searching that out yourself.
Happy Hunting!
Is there a good resource online to see which # a verse is in the Bible out of the total # of verses?
DeleteI'm digging on Open Source Software Gary and expect that the Sword Project may have resource for that. The CrossWire Bible Society and Hackathon.Bible may be other resources.
DeleteI also found pay-to-play software that does this OOB,
https://www.swordsearcher.com
I know nothing about this vendor, have no connection to them and have never used this software. I am looking for FLOSS sources so went no further there.
YMMV
Gary, I've done a little digging and talked with the developer of the WEB/WEBBE Bible and found that really old translations/software may offer Bible by verses rather than chapter and verse; but that is a bad idea. The reason being that different translations have different orders [and verses] as we both know.
DeleteThe gentleman I talked to felt it not a good idea to do this for that reason. The concept is therefore perhaps only valid for the translation being used be it ASV, KJV, NIV, TNK, etc. Such a study may require use of a single source as being authoritative. Much like what Bible coders do using Torah.
It's 3973 BC not 3974. I checked Stellarium. Thanks. Shalom.
ReplyDeleteYou will need to correct the date.
Stellarium includes a '0' year, which does not exist on the Julian/Gregorian calendars. So when you look at -years in Stellarium you have to subtract 1 year to convert to BC.
Delete-3973 = 3974 BC.
Not sure if this is old news here or not but...

I have followed this site and I love it. I do have a question, how can the peace plan come after the rapture? I would think with all of the Christians and Israel supporters gone the Middle East would have no incentive to cooperate with a peace plan.
ReplyDeleteThe idea is that there's a (regional) ME peace plan discussed NOW but when the rapture has happened this framework will give way to some GLOBAL peace plan AFTER we're gone, including the building of the 3rd temple for the Jews. This might also fulfill the word of Daniel 9:27 describing a covenant that is 'enhanced / exceed / made bigger' as the Hebrew word for 'confirm' literally says (H1396 gabar).

DeleteAN ASTRONOMICAL OBSERVATION ON 3/8/19
ReplyDeleteSunset of Friday, March 8, 2019 will ring in the Spiritual New Year, 5779. I have been looking at the stars as they are arrayed above Jerusalem and find an interesting alignment.
The sun sets at 5:42 PM local (3:42 PM GMT+2) in Israel. By 10:15 PM the last of the visible planets, Mars, will have set leaving Virgo fully risen in the East and Taurus with the Pleiades standing on the Western horizon. Israel rises. Judgement falls. (Or may we say, "Power is removed?") Sirius stands as the bright spot in the centre of the skies.
THE FLIP SIDE
Opposite in the skies, below the horizon are (IN ORDER WEST TO EAST),
1. Mars (At the feet of Aries the ram)
2. Uranus (In the upper/left chord of Pisces)
3. Moon (New moon in the right chord of Pisces)
4. Mercury (In the right chord/head of Pisces)
5. Sun (In outpouring of Aquarius)
6. Neptune (In conjunction with the Sun in Aquarius)
7. Venus (In the head of Capricornus)
8. Saturn (At the shoulder of Sagittarius)
9. Jupiter (At the right foot of Ophiuchus)
Then I noted the following,
Mars, Uranus, Mercury, Neptune, Venus, Saturn and Jupiter. Seven planets also known as "wandering stars" or stars. Stars, another term used to define angels in the Bible. Angels, meaning messengers.
Seven angels?
Hmmm,
1 Then I saw another sign in
heaven, great and amazing,
seven angels with seven plagues,
which are the last, for with
them the wrath of God is
finished.
(Revelation 15:1 ESV)
Hmmm, could we be seeing a PREVIEW of the seven angels (messengers) yet to come? And on a night I would consider a high-watch night for the coming of our Lord on the clouds? The restrainer (power/strength) is removed?
How many branches of the Temple Menorah? Seven.
How many branches of the Hanukkah Menorah? Nine.
How many wandering stars (angels) do we see arranged in the skies just behind the horizon of Jerusalem on New Year 5779? Seven.
How many heavenly bodies are arrayed across the sky opposite of Israel that night? Nine.
Of the NINE bodies seen that night which is in the middle?
The Sun!
Four stars to the left of the Sun; four stars to the right. Arrayed just as the eight (8) candles of the menorah at Hanukkah!
And what of the middle candle? What is it for? It is the service candle and used only to light the others. This middle candle serves the others and provides their source of light.
The middle candle is akin to being the light of the world. The middle candle is symbolic of Christ Jesus Himself! The light of the world!!
But this scene will be hidden by broad daylight on the other side of the world. Israel will not see it. Instead they will see Virgo standing in the East, the woman alone in her wilderness, Leo and the king star Regulus before her, Sirius centre stage with Orion next to Taurus and the star cluster known by the "Seven Sisters" or Pleiades in the West.
Still, I cannot help but wonder if the Seven Sisters are representative of the Seven Churches. Seven golden lampstands that stand in the presence of God in power and glory?
What did I say is the ancient meaning of the letter "א" in Hebrew? (See my earlier post above).
Power. Strength.
Or am I just imagining things?
Glory of God in the highest. Grace and peace to you through our LORD and King Christ Jesus.
Happy hunting!

DeleteThis strikes me as 'superb"!
ReplyDeleteI have been seeing where many of the prominent Rabbi's have been saying the Messiah will appear during Purim (March 20th - 21st). As we know this would actually be the AC, they just don't realize that yet.....if this were so would we not be gone before then?
ReplyDeleteHi Nan,
DeleteYes, if these Rabbi's statements are accurate trustworthy and true, I believe we would be gone by then. The Ecclesiastical Jewish New Year is this weekend (3/8-3/9). Spring begins less than two-weeks later (3/20). Torahcalendar.com has Passover (3/21-3/22), the Feast of Unleavened Bread (3/22-3/29) and counting of the Omer beginning (3/23-3/24). Some Rabbi's have been saying (or so I hear) that the first *messiah*, son of Joseph will appear by the Israeli elections on April 9th?
If *they* are right about "their messiah" appearing during Purim (3/20-3/21) according to Hebcal.com, then we should be going vertical soon. But according to Torahcalendar Purim has already come and gone last month!
[insert scratching heads here]
Yes, there is a one month difference between Torahcalendar.com and the civil calendar. So when Hebcal.com, for example, says it's Purim, Torahcalendar says it's Passover.
Please bear in mind that there is a vast difference in who observant Jews believe the messiah to be and who we know Him to be. They are expecting two saviours, one the son of Joseph and one the son of David. One from the tribe of Ephraim (Joseph) and one from the tribe of David if I recall.
You decide. Either way, it's on us to be watchful but be ready!
Share the good news of Jesus while you can!
Blessings,
Pastor Rich

ReplyDelete1 Now concerning the times
and the seasons, brothers,
you have no need to have
anything written to you.
2 For you yourselves are fully
aware that the day of the Lord
will come like a thief in the
night.
3 While people are saying,
"There is peace and security,"
then sudden destruction will
come upon them as labor pains
come upon a pregnant woman,
and they will not escape.
4 But you are not in darkness,
brothers, for that day to
surprise you like a thief.
5 For you are all children of
light, children of the day.
We are not of the night or of
the darkness.
6 So then let us not sleep, as
others do, but let us keep
awake and be sober.
7 For those who sleep, sleep
at night, and those who get
drunk, are drunk at night.
8 But since we belong to the
day, let us be sober, having
put on the breastplate of
faith and love, and for a
helmet the hope of salvation.
9 For God has not destined
us for wrath, but to obtain
salvation through our Lord
Jesus Christ,
10 who died for us so that
whether we are awake or
asleep we might live with
him.
11 Therefore encourage one
another and build one another
up, just as you are doing.

Ah! ANOTHER example of the number "1111" that keeps showing up! "1" Thessalonians 5:"1-11".

Gary thank you so much for your continued diligence and your very in-depth articles. I became quite the pro at Stellarium in 2017 as many of us did. However, I cannot for the life of me get Stellarium to show what you show as occurring in -3974. Could you please confirm this and get back to me here. I (of course) set my location to Jerusalem and just cannot replicate that screen capture above.
ReplyDeleteI went for a spin with Sky Guide and had to wind my clock back to July 31, 3973 BC to find your picture. Added to it was a triple conjunction of Neptune at the feet of Virgo along with the New Moon and Jupiter. The time of that observation is 07:40 PM (Jerusalem) on 7/31/-3973 viewed from coordinates, 31° 46' 31" N, 35° 14' 11" E using Sky Guide 7.1.1 (350) on Apple iOS 12.1.4 for iPhone.
DeleteYep - Pastor Rich got it! Stellarium doesn't technically show BC because it includes a year '0' whereas as there is no year 0 on our calendar.
DeleteThus in Stellarium, -3973 = 3974 BC.
Always subtract 1 to whatever negative date you have in Stellarium to get the BC equivalent.

DeleteAN INTERESTING PIN-POINT
ReplyDeleteA meteor exploded in the Earth's atmosphere with ten times the energy of the Hiroshima atomic bomb
Quoting, CNN,
"While you were living your life on December 18th, 2018, a giant space rock exploded 16 miles above the Earth's surface, giving off ten times the energy of the atomic bomb detonated over Hiroshima. No big deal."
This is an interesting event as a photograph of the event has been circulating taken by Japan's Himawari satellite. See the following Twitter posting on the event,
Simon Proud @simon_sat
This event stands out to me as the photo was captured from a satellite not designed to capture such events and from a distance of some 40K km distant! Quite literally a *wilderness* away. The day on which this occurred was Tuesday, December 18, 2018. I have yet to drill down on the exact time of the event, but in general, it occurred 33 days prior to the Total Lunar Eclipse of Sunday, January 20, 2019, during which another meteor was witnessed impacting the moon right after totallity occurred. The 33 days may standout as the timing between the Great American Solar Eclipse of Monday, August 21, 2017, and the beginning of the Great Sign on Shabbat Shuba at the Feast of Trumpets.
It was interesting to note the power released in the explosion of the meteor last December. The fireball was compared to the Little Boy fission bomb dropped on Hiroshima. That weapon yeilded on the order of 10-13kt (kilotons) of TNT. The meteor was estimated to have released energy 10 times that or equivalent to one W76-1 thermonuclear warhead which is currently in service with United States strategic nuclear forces. The W76-1 is a variable yield weapon with the "W76 Mod 0 and Mod 1 has a yield of 100 kilotons." (Quoting Wikipedia - linked below)
Quoting, Wikipedia,
"The W-76 is carried inside a Mk-4 re-entry vehicle. U.S. Trident I and Trident II SLBM/submarine-launched ballistic missiles may carry W76 warheads as one warhead option, along with W88 warheads in the Trident II."
The December fireball occurred on month ten, day ten (M10D10) according to Torahcalendar.com which is recorded as the "Fast of Month 10" marking the Siege of Jerusalem. A review and study of: 2 Kings 25:1, Jeremiah 52:4 and Zechariah 8:19 are in order.
I have the feeling this only scratches the surface of data to consider in this event. This information was collected as part of my study of the two witnesses of (Revelation 11:3-13 ESV) and is offered for anyone who wants to run with it as my time is limited and I wanted to get this out there ASAP.
