1 Peter 1:10
Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you:
This verse proves that the prophets didn't know all about what they wrote.
This is obvious from the allegories and metaphors they used; how could they know what they represented, but we today can figure out most of them.
Provided, that is; we don't have a closed mind.

Shall we store food or is it pointless and just prepare to die ?

I wouldn't focus in that since the time will be unexpected. Instead focus in edifying God's kingdom and those who are in need or troubled. Walk in love, not in fearful forethought lest the enemy deprive you of hope that God has given to us.

Verily I tell you, it will be like the days of Elijah. Even if food is absent in those days, you would need to live a supernatural lifestyle. Stop thinking in the box of limits, and open yourself to God's supernatural power!

Joel 2:32 and Acts 2:21 tells us what to do.
But we are told to take cover, Isaiah 26:20-21 and a 3 day supply of food and water will be needed.
I have started a new thread on the Lords Day of Wrath. What it will be and who are affected.

Why 3 days ?

The Coronal Mass Ejection that the Lord will use, will be gone by then.
After that we trust the Lord's promises for food and transport. Isaiah 35:1-10

Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.

Just FYI, so will most of the power grid and computers, all the magic toys that make our modern society work, if this happens... (which I would agree, it could)

They enquired, searched, found the grace by which we receive salvation, and prophesied of it.

Being inspired by the Holy Spirit, they knew exactly whereof they spoke and wrote.

Unlike today's futile futurism.

This sounds like a reference back to the Passover in Egypt............

Isaiah 26:
20 Come, My people[those in Christ?], enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast.
21 For, behold, Jehovah cometh forth out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the land for their iniquity:
the land also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.


Exodus 12:
22
Take a cluster of hyssop, dip it into the blood in the basin, and brush the top and the two sideposts of the doorframe with some of the blood. None of you shall go out the door of his house until morning.
23
When the LORD passes through to strike down the Egyptians, He will see the blood on the top and the two sideposts and pass over the door;
so He will not allow the destroyer to enter your houses and strike you down. [Revelation 9:11]

Ironically, the Passover is when God allowed the destroying Romans to decimate Jerusalem...Interesting

Revelation 9:11
They had as king over them the angel of the Abyss, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon and in Greek is Apollyon (that is, Destroyer).

The day on which Titus encompassed Jerusalem, was the feast of the Passover...........

Friday June 26, 2015.

It's 1290 days before the "darkened" sun,
and a moon that will not give her light.

DS/AoD<-------1290Days------->EoW.

Peaceful Sabbath.


Upon counting the days from Friday June, 2015 to where those 1290 would end from this date this year. Its right before my first child will be born.

I'm not troubled by this. I'm ok with this.

I would have been deeply troubled had this happened just a year ago.

To All,
Beware of false prophets. There is NOTHING in the above date or assertion which has ANY merit. The 1,290 is still future, and the associated event is still future.
Thanks,

Where does this theory come from? I've heard it before.

Futurized fantasies have merit?
