Have you been able to look at the calculations from the millennium, for that is where all God`s numbers are related to?

regard Marilyn.
Respectfully.... the years as we know them are an invention of man. They or may not be accurate, we simply have no way to know with "100% certainty."

Generally I avoid these kind of threads because usually you end with some folks (or a person) that thinks God talked to them or that they are smarter than anyone else. But in the end... we are called to learn how to walk in God's path and bear witness to His glory and namesake (character/reputation) to the increasingly dark world around us. Spending time on dates and events distracts us from much more important work.

Please realize Marilyn, my last comment wasn't directed at you, only at those who use these kinds of topics to divide brethren.

No, I have not.

In BOTH Revelation 1:3 and Matthew 24:33 the Greek word for Near is "Eggus"

Strong's Concordance
eggus: near (in place or time)
Original Word: ἐγγύς
Part of Speech: Adverb
Transliteration: eggus
Phonetic Spelling: (eng-goos')
Short Definition: near
Definition: near.Definition
near (in place or time)
Translation
close (1), near (27), nearby (1), nearer (1), ready (1).

Please show me ANY source that supports your claim that "eggus" means "Could be thousands of years away, but once it starts it will unfold quickly."

No I mean the word in Revelation to which i was reffering is not that one.

Reach the first chapter with an interlinear bible, you'll see what I'm pointing out.

Dog turd? I guess you elevate yourself above others?

Look... just give me some TIME PERIOD SOURCES and you will have made a wonderful point. Without them, you have nothing.

I wasn't singling out any one preacher, but on the whole they really don't know anything useful. This is demonstrated by a complete lack of Spiritual Authority.

And what time period sources would you like? I have posted many links supporting everything I have stated in this thread. Except the dog turd bit.
But I can pull statistics on how pastors in this nation are failing miserably. Better yet, how the Rothschild and Rockefeller empires have been buying, controlling, and shaping nearly every Seminary College since before WW2.

So which resources would you like links to?

Yes. It is unequivocal
And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand.

The events of Revelation started in AD96....

Oh, well you've misunderstood an important facet of the Book of Revelation. It wasn't written in 96A.D. so to speak. John was there, in the Spirit, when it happens. Meaning He literally was present in the future, then sent back to when and where he was.

From Creation, to Crucifixion, to Rapture, to Judgment, to Armageddon.

Adam was created 4004 B.C. according to the genealogies of The Word.
The World: Born in 4004 BC?
I will use 4004 B.C. as 0 C.E. And explain the "calendar" of God.

7 year shmitah cycles. 7th year is a sabbatical year.
12 is commonly used by God as a division of years, of dividing labor, apostles, tribes, constellations, etc.
The approaching end of the age viewed in the light of history, prophecy and science

7x12=84 (12 shmitah/sabattical years)

84x12=1008 (12 shmitah x 12 = 1 millenium)

1008×4=4032 (4th millennium = sacrifice of Christ (28 A.D.))

1008×6=6048 (6th millennium = Return of Christ (2044 A.D.))

6048 C.E. : 6th millennium ends 2 years before the 120th Sabbath (50x120=6050)
"And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years."


1008x7=7056 (end of the millennial reign of Christ on this earth, beginning of Armageddon, then the New Heaven and New Earth)

1st miennium 0 C.E. - 1008 C.E. / 20 Jubilees
2nd 1008 C.E. - 2016 C.E. / 20 Jubilees
3rd 2016 C.E. - 3024 C.E. / 20 Jubilees
4th 3024 C.E. - 4032 C.E. / 20 Jubiless
5th 4032 C.E. - 5040 C.E. / 20 Jubilees
6th 5040 C.E. - 6048 C.E. / 20 Jubilees
7th 6048 C.E. - 7056 C.E. / 21 Jubilees

Crucifixion of Christ
April 28th 4004 C.E./ 28 A.D.
1st feast: Passover
10) PhD Dates Crucifixion to AD 28 - 2028 End (Of The World)

(Christ then fulfilled the feasts of Unleavened Bread, and First Fruits; on their days. Ascended into heaven 10 days before Pentecost. Pentecost was then fulfilled on its day by the Impartation of the Holy Spirit
A Concise Overview of the Seven Feasts of Israel )

Rapture of the Spirit Filled Believers in Christ
Sept 8th 6044 C.E./2040 A.D.
Planetary Alignment of Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and the Crescent (New) Moon; on the 5th Feast, the Feast of Trumpets.
2040 - Wikipedia
Jewish Calendar 2040 | Hebcal Jewish Calendar
Interestingly the Hebrew names of each of these planets and a New Moon all have a meaning, and in the order of their alignment create a cohesive sentence:

Mercury: the light bearers
Venus: are liberated
Mars: those who are covered by His blood
(Litteraly "the Red Ones)
Jupiter: are redeemed
Saturn: for the Sabbath
Crescent/New Moon: through the door to the inner room of Almighty God.


Return of Christ for The Judgment:
Oct 1st 6048 C.E./2044 A.D.
Bethlehem star, sign of The Son of Man which is the Occultation of Regulus by Venus
On the 6th Feast, the feast of Atonement/Yom Kippur
2044 - Wikipedia
Jewish Calendar 2044 | Hebcal Jewish Calendar
Star of Bethlehem - Wikipedia

If you read all of the way through, thank you. I hope this helps create a dialogue of constructive investigation, not accusative arguements without mutual respect :) I know it's a hot topic.

Sorry to burst your bubble but in the past days were faster , also days will be shorten because if not no flesh would be saved ( Matthew 24:22) , moreover sun will go down at noon ( Amos 8:9) so your prediction can be very off , actually tribulation could start tommorow nobody knows .

So you'd rather not comment on the use of Eggus in Revelation 1:3 then?

Does it have ANY discernable meaning?

A year is simply one orbit of the earth around the sun. It takes exactly 365.24 days THAT is certain.

I do not consider myself smarter that anyone, but I can do addition and the timeline I posted in #8 exactly sets out God's 7000 year Plan for mankind.
Ignoring what God has plainly informed us about is not a distraction and is nothing short of sinful.

The reckoning of years and seasons is entirely possible. Despite pre and post dilluvian changes, and despite possible calendar alterations from the time of Joshuas Long Nite, we can rely on Gods accounting of Jubilees, Shmitahs, and Feasts.

As these were apart of God's 7 milleniam plan from before creation day 1.

Also there are the signs in Heavens placed by God to mark events.

It's in perfect context, but only if the reader understands that the context is that it was spoken in the future, at the onset of the events immediately to take place. And that once they start, it will all come to a conclusion very quickly.

We have some differences of perception as to the research of the biblical timeline, but I believe we are predominately in agreement. However I would posit one thing for consideration. That on God's Calendar a milleniam is 1008 years, not 1000.

Divinely inspired, Eyewitness Apostle John, Infallibly Told His 1st Century Contemporaries "Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near."

Random, Fallible Internet guy "R.A.M." tells His 21st century Blog post Contemporaries "No, the time was NOT near back then".

When faced with choosing which of these two POLAR OPPOSITE claims to accept as true, My money is on the Apostle. Every time.

Is it possible for you to critique my post #8? Show us exactly where you disagree, please.

1008 = 1000? Where does that come from?

Time is relative my friend.
Why do you presume His words to be either false or already conaumated?

Henry Grattan Guinness.

1 millenium is 7 × 12 ×12
One sebatical cycle × 12 = 84.
84 × 12 = 1008

1000 plus 8, 8 beong Gods number for a new begining.
Guiness dod the most well researched writting on the subject.

Have you been able to look at the calculations from the millennium, for that is where all God`s numbers are related to?

regard Marilyn.
I still need to examine your earlier post, but i am looking into it. Thus far the predominance of my learning has been to understand " the signs of the times" which God posts in the heavens.

However i must say, i get a witness to the understanding of which you have shared.

Hi Marilyn,
Is this addressed to me?

Hi A71,

So sorry, I thought I had quoted RAM but was in a hurry this morning as had to go out. So obviously the quote from RAM didn`t get posted. So, no it wasn`t referring to you, bro.

regards, Marilyn.

Hi RAM,

I see you are pursuing that thought, and that is OK as that is what has come to mind. So I will start a thread soon regarding my thoughts on God`s calculations from the Millennium, back. Hope you can join us there.

regards, Marilyn.

Hi Ken,

I didn`t take offense. And I can understand what you are saying as there has been so many nutties, trying this and that and fallen on their faces. However.....what comes to mind is -

1. `No one knows the day...` Jesus while on earth speaking to the people of Israel who were blinded.
2. `You are not in darkness so that this day should overtake you as a thief.` (1 Thess. 5: 4)
3. The Holy Spirit has been given to the Body of Christ to lead them into ALL truth of Christ and His purposes.
4. `We are to come together (perhaps in 2`s and 3`s) & all the more as you SEE the day approaching.` (Heb. 10: 25)
5. Also God has given specific numbers in His word, and thus will clarify what & when they are for.

I have seen that God`s numbers are related to the millennium, and thus I put them in that order. No other calculations are needed than what God has given. Easy & straightforward. I will post a thread soon regarding this and hope to see you there for a good discussion.

regards, Marilyn.
