***I am in no way trying to set dates, just thinking outloud and getting people's opinions***
With all the talk about possible attacking Syria and with the Feast of Trumpets starting on Saturday the 7th, anyone find this interesting?
Interesting, yes. Surprising, no. Here is my opinion: the US attacks Syria, Iran/ Russia retaliates, Israel ups the ante with a nuclear strike, then "terrorists" go at it full force, then who knows what. Throw in some aliens, diseases, etc and we'll have ourselves an "end of the world" to contend with. "Pope, save me" lol
Of course, this is just how things are orchestrated to happen. The people who run the world control Syria, Iran (remember the US/ CIA took it over in 1953?), Iraq, Al Queda, Russia, Israel, and the US. It's all entirely staged, scripted like a novel and we get to be the pawns in their warped machinations - they understand prophecy backwards and forwards in ways we could barely understand. Ever wonder why all this foot dragging? Why doesn't something ever happen? It's not supposed to go down until the timing is proper as per prophecy. So what's the timing?
As with most things dealing with dates, we've got to go to Daniel 9.
24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.
25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
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.
27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
The term weeks is translated from shabua/ Shavuot which has many definitions: 7, heptad, weeks, the Feast of Weeks (7 weeks) in-between Passover and Shavuot, and Shavuot the holiday itself. So,
after 62 Shavuot/ shabua/ weeks, messiah is cut off
or makes a covenant (H3772 karath). This event, whatever it means exactly, has already passed (it is most likely referring to the
UN security councils sanctions against Iran for its nuclear pursuits which were issued exactly on the 63rd Shavuot.) Counting from the creation of Israel on Nov. 29, 1947 and the subsequent 1st Shavuot that Israel would have celebrated on June 13, 1948, the 63rd Shavuot was at dusk May 18, day of May 19, 2010.
63rd Shavuot , MAY 19, 2010
64th Shavuot, JUNE 8, 2011
65th Shavuot, MAY 27, 2012
66th Shavuot , MAY 15, 2013
67th Shavuot , JUNE 4, 2014
68th Shavuot , MAY 24, 2015
69th Shavuot , JUNE 12, 2016
70th Shavuot , May 31, 2017
In the middle of this 7 Shavuot, the anointed one will break a covenant. Which party it is that breaks the aforementioned sanctions convenant is not clear to me (seems to be Russia or Iran from various news items at important dates possibly Russia supplies Iran with missile defense). The middle of the 7 Shavuot (the 63rd through the 69th Shavuot) until messiah can mean a few things: the 1260th day would be Oct. 29th, 2013 and the middle of 7 solar years would be 1278 days, ending on Nov. 16, 2013. The 1290th day would be Nov. 28, 2013.
From Matthew 24, we get a pattern of events: an Armageddon type tribulation, then the sun is darkened, moon will not give light, stars fall, powers of the heavens are shaken, then the sign of the son of man, then the "rapture" (which in reality, is being gathered together in the wilderness, not a cosmic vacuum cleaner (the idea for which does exist for a reason).
26 So if anyone tells you, There he is, out in the wilderness, do not go out; or, Here he is, in the inner rooms, do not believe it. 27 For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. 28 Wherever there is a carcass, there the vultures will gather.
29 Immediately after the distress of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky,
and the heavenly bodies will be shaken. 30 Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then all the peoples of the earth[
c] will mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory.[
d] 31 And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.
Starting from the birth of Israel, the 63rd Shavuot of Dan 9s 70 weeks/ Shavuot,
May 19, 2010:
- Add 1260 days to get
Oct. 29, 2013. Thats when the tribulation of those days is
over. Assuming that this lasts for ten days of tribulation (Rev. 2:10), the distress of those days, this would put the start of this particular tribulation on
Oct. 19, 2013.
Then the sun is immediately darkened thereafter on Nov. 3, 2013, with a
rare hybrid solar eclipse (the moon is automatically darkened on that night since, by its nature, all solar eclipses happen on new moons/ at the beginning of the month in a lunar based calendar). The moon being darkened also seems to have something to do with NASA's new "LADEE" mission going off today which will go live around 60 days from now - ie just after the NOv, 3rd eclipse.
The stars falling refers partly to Trumpet 5, Apollyon, who has the keys to Hell (something hits the earth on Nov. 21, 2013 to kick off 5 months of Trumpet 5 to take us to April 21, 2014, the start of the 7 year covenant. (for more on this see
this.) Whats the 7 year covenant? In addition to Israel/ Palestine, it is possibly
this:
In their landmark January 2008 Wall Street Journal editorial, the Four StatesmenGeorge Shultz, William Perry, Henry Kissinger, and Sam Nunnurged world leaders to chart a course to the elusive "mountaintop" of a nuclear-free world. They listed as one important step along the way the acceleration of "work to provide the highest possible standards of security for nuclear weapons, as well as for nuclear materials everywhere in the world, to prevent terrorists from acquiring a nuclear bomb." Following the Four Statesmen's roadmap, in July 2009, President Obama proposed a summit to challenge world leaders to "discuss steps...to secure loose nuclear materials; combat smuggling; and deter, detect, and disrupt attempts at nuclear terrorism."[1] As part of the broader nuclear disarmament goals he originally outlined in Prague, Obama convened this group to foster "an international effort to secure all vulnerable nuclear material around the world within four years."
The article is dated April 20, 2010. Add 4 years to get 1 day away from the magic date of April 21, 2014 as the start of the 7 year covenant that is confirmed!
Add 1290 days to get
Nov. 28, 2013.
Add 1335 days to get
Jan. 12, 2014, the sign of the son of man in heaven. Now, check
this out from NASA
Veteran meteor researcher Paul Wiegert of the University of Western Ontario has been using a computer to model the trajectory of dust ejected by Comet ISON, and his findings suggest that an unusual meteor shower could be in the offing.
"For several days around January 12, 2014, Earth will pass through a stream of fine-grained debris from Comet ISON," says Wiegert. "The resulting shower could have some interesting properties.
The earth will pass through Comet ISONs previous path towards the sun, showering the earth with particulate and then we will see the comet as it is on its way out of the solar system. ISONs particulate shower on January 12th, 2014 will function as Trumpet 1s Hail and Fire, and the comet itself will function as Trumpet 3, the burning torch, Wormwood. What this means is that there is a Trumpet 2, a burning mountain to be thrown into the sea, in-between the hail and fire of Trumpet 1 and the burning torch of Trumpet 3. I assume that this is the Cumbre Vieja volcano which would, in the worst case scenario, hit the east coast with a tsunami in 12 hours if I remember correctly - this seems to go in tandem with the recent "FEMA III" alert for the east coast.
So, lets just step back and try to put it all together. The time of Jacobs trouble starts in the middle of the 7, the middle of the 7 Shavuot from Daniel 9, the 63rd Shavuot through the 70th, October 29, 2013 through May 31, 2017 (but remember, that there is tribulation
before this middle marker of Oct. 29, 2013). This 7 year period is distinct from the 7 year covenant (the nuclear weapons treaty and/or an Israel & Palestine treaty in April 2014.) The 7 years of Shavuot 63 -69 is May 19, 2010 through May 31, 2017. The 7 year peace covenant, the covenant with Death and Hell, is April 21, 2014 through April 21, 2021.
Since Satan will imitate Christ, this pattern should hold up: a war will end on Oct. 29, 2013 (the 1260th day when Babylon falls), then the sun and moon will be immediately darkened this is the Nov. 3, 2013 hybrid eclipse (all solar eclipses happen at the new moon, so by definition: the sun is darkened and the moon will not shed its light because its the new moon.) Then the stars will fall is a reference to Apollyon of Trumpet 5 falling on 11-21-13, the abomination of desolation on the 1290th day, Nov. 28, 2013, (a statue in dedication to a fallen leader), and then the sign of the son of man will appear in heaven (Satan imitating the sign of the son of man is Comet ISON) on the 1335th day would be Jan 12, 2014 which would do double duty as bringing the hail and fire of Trumpet 1 and then the burning torch/ Wormwood of Trumpet 3 is the comet itself in the night sky. The eruption of the Cumbre Vieja volcano would come shortly after the Hail and Fire as it would be the burning mountain of Trumpet 2 which spiritually means the fall of Babylon/ Lucifer, yet is materially expressed in different ways through the end-times.)
