Amidst all of the so called historical "facts" has anyone noticed that our calendars are only as good as the timeline they are attached to, and that the timeline is only as accurate as the story it's attached to? Let's face it, all history is literally narrative or story. As each story has a timeline with a beginning, middle, and an end it would only be logical to conclude that it's timeline operates much the same way. Assuming that the story is not covering false accounts of the lives of the people it discusses, we may further deduce that we can use the calendars to track the days: therfore with the time and location being known at all times one will never be lost...until we get to the Bible.
I have noticed that amidst all of the histories scattered on the earth concerning man's time here on earth cover one or three of the elements of a story:
1) Beginning
2) Middle
3) End
All of the stories however do share a common theme: their histories are incomplete and inconsistent; and, additionally there is no reason given to us in the stories of the Veyda's, the Quran, the Greeks, the Zoroastrians, Celts, or any other nation why we should believe their histories to be the most accurate and ancient as opposed to the rest of mankind. Why should we believe that a solar, lunar, astral, or agriculture calendar should be followed? Oddly enough, though the Bible is the only book to lay claim that all men can profit from the knowledge and wisdom in it, why is it that many have not taken this claim more seriously? When we turn to the Bible and ask questions as to what calendar God established many fail to receive the answer.
If this was not enough we also have a gross error in that people actually believe that God did not set a timeline for us to follow and know where in time we are. If there is no timeline in the Bible then why do we bother with BC and AD which were created in order to know the number of years before Christ and the year of our Lord? Why should we care about any dates in history without having a beginning and end to connect to our present time? After all people keep track of the time in order to know when something begins and ends don't we? Why state the number of years before Christ's birth if we do not know how many years it was prophesied for Christ Jesus to be born in the first place? Why set times for the end of the world if God had not told us the end from the beginning?
That being said why is the history of Jesus our Savior so scantily covered? Why so little detail as to His death and birth? The blame is both on the Christian and Jews: the latter wishes to deny the coming of the Messiah; and, the latter wishes to separate itself from the people from whom our Savior was born from. Upon further inspection we see much time and energy invested by many on both sides to obscure works they consider apocryphal, pseudopigraphal, and deuterocanonical: I do not refer to the mystical writings, vain superstitions, or gnostic gospels which have been proven to be heretical and of Satan. I refer to writings such as Jasher, 1 Enoch, Jubilees, I & II Adam and Eve, the Infancy Gospels (a.k.a Protoevangelium), and The Assumption of Moses, and the Apocyphal Acts of the Apostles just to name a few. I will deal with each of these books at length in separate blogs in the future if YHWH wills. For now I will say that these books help to shed much light and fill in the misssing information of many of the narratives of the old and new testament stories concerning the patriarchs, the life of Jesus and His apostles. These same books (along with others) have been the focus of much attack and criticism, and suppression by scholars and historians who fail to give a proper explanation as to their disregard of such works. In the time being please view my blog entries Is the Bible Really Profitable for All Things 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3.
Now in order to avoid unecessary speculation I will say that the Bible tells us in Genesis and Revelation that we have 7,000 years until the end of the world and that after 6,000 years have passed will the 1,000 year reign commence: but of that day or hour of the 6,000th year we do not know when YHWH God will return, only He knows. For as it was in the days of Noah so too will it be in the second coming of the Son of Man: He will come as a thief to those who are not prepared and busy in His Work.
In conclusion I hope that questions will be raised in your minds to examine the truth of what you have been taught and check it against the measure of scripture which is to guide our mind and body to be with Jesus Christ in Paradise and avoid the burning lake of fire which is reserved for those who disobey Jesus and His Testimony. While I have not worked out every single detail chronologically speaking God has promised that we are in the 119th Jubilee and near the opening of the sixth seal which, will open once the Euphrates river will be completely dried up which is spoken of in Revelation. Who will be ready for our Lord Jesus' second and final coming?
