Studying the sixth hour (when darkness come over the land) till the ninth and what it signifies, there seems to be some similiarities between these. So I figured Id post them maybe someone can add


Amos 8:9 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord GOD, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day:

Mar 15:33 And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.

Isaiah 9:19 Through the wrath of the LORD of hosts is the land darkened

Mark 15:34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

Isaiah 54:7 For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee.

Isaiah 54:8 In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD thy Redeemer.

This connected to the sure mercies of David which follows after which the apostles speak of in relationship to Christ (by whom we have forgiveness of sins)

For example, if we take from the last two verse, and rehighlight for emphasis, it would continue like this....


Isaiah 54:7 For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee.

Isaiah 54:8 In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD thy Redeemer.

Acts 13:34 And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David.

Acts 13:35 Wherefore he saith also in another psalm, Thou shalt not suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

Acts 13:38 Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins:

Luke 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.



Zech 13:1 In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin and for uncleanness.

John 9:34 But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water.


Ephes 1:7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

Romans 3:25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;

I just wrote a post in the eschatology forum called the Third Part, which explains the symbolism of the 6th hour to the 9th hour, if you care to read it. But bring your thinkin cap. Peace.

I'll check it out bro, but you know me I cant think numbers, I have tried, maybe its not filled with those (but knowing you) ^_^

If I can just wrap it into Christ I am content, if it gets too complicated I get lost and math is my weaknest link, so I will check it out later ((heres hoping)):prayer:

Adding to this another way As the Sun


He done this before them...

Mat 17:2 And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun,

Likewise it says...

Psalm 104:19 He appointed the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth his going down.

Likewise He says... (of His going down)

Luke 9:44 Let these sayings sink down into your ears: for the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men.

Notice also the sun as well is darkened in his going down

Isaiah 13:10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth , and the moon shall not cause her light to shine .

Whereas likewise he says...

John 9:5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.

Then here (as posted above)

Amos 8:9 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord GOD, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day:

Likewise in accord with it....

Luke 23:44 And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.

Here as the Sun (strength!) and the seven stars in His hand

Rev 1:16 And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.

Right on key!

Rev 1:18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore,


Then this....

Amos 5:8 [Seek him] that maketh the seven stars and Orion


Then here...

Rev 1:16 And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.

Which are...

Rev 1:20 The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches

Likewise...

Romans 1:20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

Trying to confirm it from more then just one angle, which sorta helps, so you can swing it around a few times, rather then a once over. God be blessed, He is so incredible :thumbsup:

Given the veil of the temple was rent (the sun who knoweth His going down) likewise the earth darkening at his going forth and speaks to Christ (the Sun of righteousness) being in us, likewise it says...

Isaiah 60:19 The sun shall be no more thy light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee: but the LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory.:thumbsup:

"In them" in relation to the sun here.....

Psalm 19:4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,

And likewise now...

Isaiah 60:20 Thy sun shall no more go down; neither shall thy moon withdraw itself: for the LORD shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended.

And likewise Jesus said ye are a city

And since we look not at the things that are seen (which are temporal) but at that which is unseen (which are eternal) it say...

Rev 21:23 And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.

I thought that was so kool, because the day dawn and the day star arises in our hearts (the more sure word of prophecy) the testimony of Jesus Christ (which is also) confirmed in is.

Okay... I was going to make a separate post for this and call it Gogoltha, the problem was is I didnt know how to start it, for one, the verse pointer is obscure (in a sense) but not really. Rather revelatory though. Given the above posts (showing the sun knowing his going down) and we know that Christ is our passover, and revelation shows the great city Jesus was crucified in is "spiritually called" Sodom and Egypt, maybe pointing these out first might make it easier to catch. I posted on this before a year or so ago and some folks were catching it, but I think I should be able to show something better (and Im not always that good at that).

I think this is quite amazing


Keep in mind this...And the above post speaking of it (second one up above this one)

Psalm 104:19 He appointed the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth his going down.


Now here...watch how its worded...

Duet 16:6 But at the place which the LORD thy God shall choose to place his name ((((in))) **there** thou shalt sacrifice the passover at even, at the going down of the sun, at the season that thou camest forth out of Egypt.

Just to reafirm where our Lord was crucified is spritually called...


Rev 11:8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.

Even as we also know Christ is our passover likewise...

1Cr 5:7 For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:

So **again**...

Duet 16:6 But at (((the place))) which the LORD thy God shall choose to place his name (((in))) ***there*** thou shalt sacrifice the passover at even, at the going down of the sun, at the season that thou camest forth out of Egypt.

Where'd they bring him to?

Mark 15:22 And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, (((The place of))) **a skull**


His name pertains to the forehead

Rev 22:4 And they shall see his face; and his name shall be (((in))) their **foreheads**

1Cr 2:16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But ((((we have))) the mind of Christ.

Did you catch that?

Let me try cutting them somewhat....

Again...

Duet 16:6 But at (((the place))) which the LORD thy God shall choose to place his name (((in)))


To here...

Mark 15:22 And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, (((The place of))) **a skull**

Likewise...

**there** thou shalt sacrifice the passover at even, at the going down of the sun,

1Cr 5:7 For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:

For US....(because we are carnally minded)

Rom 8:6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.

Likewise....

John 10:10 I am come that they might have life

The carnal mind is emnity (which is "great hatred") toward God, Christ ( the passover lamb ) was to be sacrificed in the place he would PLACE HIS NAME (((IN))) and He was crucified "in the place of" THE SKULL

By Him WE PASS from one place (called "death" of which is called the carnal mind) unto another place (called) "life" and peace (which is to be spiritually minded) as in given "the mind of Christ" (The Fathers name pertains to "the forehead"

1John 3:14 We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death.

Col 1:21 And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled.

Likewise the covenant

Heb 10:16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;

Ephes 4:23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;

Its a heart and mind thing. The mind (Galgotha) can be seen more there where at the tomb (where the stone is removed) and the dawn is (is likewise expressed in Peters words) till the day dawn as it pertains to our hearts (as does the circumcision of the heart).

So as sometimes we were alienated and enemies in our own skulls (our own minds). Its the same place where Christ was crucified (called by interpretation "the place of a skull") right? Christ being the passover was to be sacrificed in the very place where he puts HIS NAME ((( IN ))) and His name pertains to THE FOREHEAD .

Does it Make better sense how I am reasoning with this?

Crucified in a place "spiritually called Sodom" (as well as Egypt) Where two angels appear to Lot and also where two angels appear at where Jesus body is laid which stood by His disciples. Its where the dawn is shown, as well as the day dawn in our hearts). Likewise the morning arises before the angels hasten Lot out of Sodom.

Which is interesting, as these also appear to correlate

2Cr 3:14 But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ.

Christ is the door

Gen 19:11 And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied themselves to find the door.

As likewise Christ is the truth

2Titus 3:7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

Looking at these, not sure

Luke 13:25 When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are


John 20:19 Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.

Its pretty kool though, if He is given us A SIGN, AT (((THE PLACE))) The LORD thy God shall CHOOSE TO PLACE HIS NAME ***IN*** = (((THERE))) ~in a figure~ sacrifice the passover = Jesus Christ

HE CHOSE **THE PLACE OF A SKULL**

Make sense how I am reasoning with this?

God bless you

Always good to see your contributions, Fire! Love your comment to InSpiritInTruth, "If I can just wrap it into Christ I am content." :thumbsup:

In keeping with that, it's wonderful confirmation when we can see that "our ideas" (like what you're saying about Golgotha and forehead) were already conveyed long ago, by Moses. In the law no less!? You may recall that's kinda my "niche," as I was floored by a couple statements, that we are the righteousness of G-d in Christ Jesus, and Christ fulfilled the law.

Of course you might not see what I see, but here's confirmation:

"And thou shalt make a plate [of] pure gold, and grave upon it, [like] the engravings of a signet, HOLINESS TO THE LORD. (Exodus 28:37) And thou shalt put it on a blue lace, that it may be upon the mitre; upon the forefront of the mitre it shall be. And it shall be upon Aaron's forehead"

Not hard to guess the significance of it being held in place by blue lace, is it? ^_^

We also see this again here:

"And they made the plate of the holy crown [of] pure gold, and wrote upon it a writing, [like to] the engravings of a signet, HOLINESS TO THE LORD.
(Exd 39:31) And they tied unto it a lace of blue, to fasten [it] on high upon the mitre; as the LORD commanded Moses. Thus was all the work of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation finished: and the children of Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so did they."

Notice this one item was THE FINAL POINT! Like so:

"Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: (Ephesians 4:14) That we [henceforth] be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, [and] cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, [even] Christ: From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love."

Looks like you've been busy ... :hug:

Beautiful my brother:hug:

I love seeing those things in Him too Raze, amen bro. I have purposed in my heart one thing to prove Jesus Christ and to see the cross central in the wisdom of God. Just in finding those things that testify to Him out of the law and the prophets. I have an infatuation with those things and sure enjoy the company of others who have a love toward the same thing.

Proving Christ our Lord, so others can see Him, believe in Him be sealed and walk this blessed walk with Him and the Father.

Thats where its at for me, nothing brings me greater joy:thumbsup:

God bless you brother

Im reposting this, adding in two verses showing the waters of Noah included in this picture and the words of Peter likewise speaking to the same. This is pretty kool, starts off the same but check it out

Start here AT the cross of Christ.... 6th hour = noon

Amos 8:9 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord GOD, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day:

Mar 15:33 And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.


And ofcourse we know....

Isaiah 9:19 Through the wrath of the LORD of hosts is the land darkened

What did Jesus say?

Mark 15:34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?


And we see likewise...

Isaiah 54:7 For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee.

And again...

Isaiah 54:8 In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD thy Redeemer.

What verse is before this last one?

Isaiah 54:9 For this is as the waters of Noah unto me: for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.


There it is! The waters of noah:thumbsup:

Now lets take the last two verses above this last one (and rehighlight them) and show them by the apostles own words going forward...

This one...

Isaiah 54:7 For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee.


And this one again...

Isaiah 54:8 In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD thy Redeemer.


Which is speaking of is Christ...

Acts 13:34 And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David.

Acts 13:35 Wherefore he saith also in another psalm, Thou shalt not suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

Acts 13:38 Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins:

Luke 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.

Zech 13:1 In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin and for uncleanness.

John 9:34 But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water.

Ephes 1:7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

Romans 3:25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;

Peter says...

1Peter 3:21 The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:

And again...

Isaiah 54:9 For this is as the waters of Noah unto me: for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.

Pretty kool! I hadnt noticed that before! I so missed those in adding them into this, wasnt looking at how they applied perfectly here in Christ, so I reposted it

So he is "set forth" upon the cross to be a propitiation as shown in Romans 3:2 (above)

1) relating to an appeasing or expiating, having placating or expiating force, expiatory; a means of appeasing or expiating, a propitiation
a) used of the cover of the ark of the covenant in the Holy of Holies, which was sprinkled with the blood of the expiatory victim on the annual day of atonement (this rite signifying that the life of the people, the loss of which they had merited by their sins, was offered to God in the blood as the life of the victim, and that God by this ceremony was appeased and their sins expiated) hence the lid of expiation, the propitiatory
b) an expiatory sacrifice
c) a expiatory victim

Then if you look (above) at 2Peter 3:21 is where the conscience plays in, our faith (in His blood) the conscience plays into it, for example

Heb 9:14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

Theres alot of kool stuff on the conscience, thats where Paul exercised himself unto actually, to have a conscience "void of offense" toward God and man. Whereas he speaks of folks making shipwreck not holding to faith with a good conscience. Thats another post but theres so much other stuff that ties into this which Paul expounds on, hard to show everything in the tiniest of details, but its vast what Christ fulfilled and how everything seems to fall into place in scripture being centered on the cross of Christ.


What a great God we have!

Our God be blessed in the name of Jesus Christ (our precious Lamb)

God bless:thumbsup:

It is pretty cool when your mind is opened up to those deep spiritual insights shown to us first in a natural way. The Lord first shows us things in the natural, to reflect on a much deeper spiritual meaning, which can only be searched out by way of the Holy Spirit.

I like the insights you gave on the place of the skull, which is also shown to us as the strength of the head. This is also shown in the covering of the head, which is the hair. When the hair of the head of man is just trimmed from time to time, it is the strength of the man; just like Samson. But we saw how Samson was made blind after his hair was cut off, he then lost the strength of his head.

But for the woman it was given for a covering, to protect her from those evil angels to come. Just as the woman would flee into the wilderness from those spiritual flood waters come out of the mouth of the dragon for the time determined.

Many believe this spiritual flood is yet to take place in the final hours of the last days. But the Lord showed in scripture that this dark period, and this spiritual flood would take place after the Messiah was cut off.

Jesus is that strength of the head, and Jesus is that door way to the Ark of the Lord. But for the children of Israel who did not recieve him at that time the door would then be shut after (7 days) more, just as it was in the days of Noah. This counting down of ( 7 weeks of sabbaths more) started from the time of the harvest of the firstripe of the firstfruits, until( pentacost) 7x7=49 days.

After this time there would be a new meat offering as is shown in the law. This would mark the start of the New Covenant period of the Gentiles.

The timing of this spiritual flood was also shown in Daniel 9:26;"And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with (a flood,) and unto the end of the war desolations are determined."

Again, we see how the natural takes on a much deeper spiritual meaning.

Amen brother, beautiful, thats what I find likewise, as you are renewed in your mind in the Holy Ghosts teaching your understanding changes and your ability to connect things gradually grows, taking from what is His and making it known to us in the way He does that. I dont do that perfectly, I am still being taught, though accostumed to how He speaks or shows me a thing (which is always the reason for my "pause") and not so eager (as before) to judge in those things. Which is rather awesome I must say, strange things dont sound so strange anymore (lol). I suppose because at one time (we) by nature of ourselves regard it as foolishness (and naturally unrecieveable) in that place.

I fell on Galgotha by accident, but whats weird (as I shared with you before) I had written a poem on it and was given the signifiers but I (even then) was not catching even as I was given the other and did not, it was always later down the line these things come up again.

I always wondered (aside from a handful of plain verses) where the apostles were seeing those things, and then you start catching them in their similitudes and begin to see (and from where) their expounding came from. Someone only observing the letter of scripture (by itself, having no Spirit) would need it in stone (meaning written to them very plain in letters). And so when sharing here (unless its tight) you find these sorta of folks here who do those drive bys with a single verse (trying to get cha) ^_^ Which before would get me angry now I sorta find it cute (lol) because it just reveals where they are at (and so they become discernable) and this tells you not to speak to them the same way. Its rather mindblowing (the whole thing) His words, His most precious Spirit, the manifestation of the dynamic of the body of Christ, all of it.

Im am so thrilled about growing in Christ now more then ever (I cannot express that enough) and am so thankful to Him for this gift. Bless His great name!

God bless you my brother, you are always a pleasure

SpiritInTruth, you know brother... I have been thinking about this for awhile now (and usually I wait a couple years to get to know someone better) but I had to ask you. I have my own forum (myself) and I would like to extend my welcome to you to join us (there) if you were willing. Theres just a handful of us there (which is by choice) but you are more then welcome to join us there if you were interested. You can talk more freely there. Well, what I mean is, Chicapea is there too (just to give you a sense of the place). So its not of people who are of debate (with strife) but of discussion (us comparing things together).

Would sure love to dig into these things more with you there if you'd like.

Had to ask you (finally) :thumbsup:

God bless you brother

SpiritInTruth, these ones are the ones I am looking at now, separately yet theres two in John, one at the first day of the week and again after eight days later

Luke 13:25 When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are:

John 20:19 Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.

John 20:26 And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you.

Do you see any significance on the last two why its noted that way?

This is the first time I am looking at this inparticular

God bless

Fire, I had never really payed that much attention to those 2 verses in John before, but I believe they may have something to do with the law of cleansing. If you search the words shut up, and seven you will see what I mean. Heres one example in Leviticus 14:38-40;

"Then the priest shall go out of the house to the door of the house, and shut up the house seven days: And the priest shall come again the seventh day, and shall look: and, behold, if the plague be spread in the walls of the house; Then the priest shall command that they take away the stones in which the plague is, and they shall cast them into the unclean place without the city."


That has symbolism written all over it. Keep in mind the scriptures refer to the Lords house being made up of his people, which are also refered to as living stones. These would be the clean stones verses the unclean.

Also "without the camp" refers to this unclean world we live in at present. Just as Paul said, let us go without the camp and offer our selves a living sacrifice, where also our Lord was crucified.

In the law the outward fleshy parts of the animal were to be sacrificed outside the camp for (a sign) given to us, how we also must put off, or sacrifice that unclean fleshy minded man that did once defile us.

I hope that helps.

As far as posting on another forum, I have no problem with that, but I would still post here as well. The way I look at it, the more exposure the better. Peace.
