Apostles and Elders Organizing the Church

The Total Lunar Tetrad on passover, tabernacles and again on passover and tabernacles occurred in 1949/50 (6th time since Christ) when Israel became a nation and 1967/68 (7th time since Christ) when Israel entered Jerusalem.

It is the first time since Christ there were two feast Tetrads as close as this 18 years apart.

"The disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of this age?" (Matt. 24.3) "And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you" (v.4).

Jesus said when Israel becomes a nation again (v.32) you will know "right at the door" (v.33) when He returns. I don't see how I could know right at the door if it is more than a life-span away. Psalm 90.10 says the limit of our age is 70 to 80 years so about 75 years is the maximum time from 1948 when Jesus steps down on the mount of olives (Zech 14.4, Acts. 1.11, Rev. 1.7, 19.11-16). We won't know the hour (v.42), but we can know the day. We can't know the end of the 1000 years when the earth will be burnt up (vv.35,36), but we can know when Jesus returns in Person with His overcomer believers (5 wise virgins, Matt. 25.1-13) to reign on earth for the 1000 years (Jude 14,15; Rev. 20.4-6).

Other Scripture Jesus explains in more detail. Joel 2.31 says we can know when the great and terrible day of the Lord is, that is, the Tribulation (Dan. 9.27), according to the trifecta (exact order) of a "great earthquake," "sun black as sackcloth," and the "moon red as blood" (Rev. 6.12). Many other verses support the signs in the heavens to know when the first rapture commences according to readiness (Matt. 24.40-42, Luke 21.36, Rev. 3.10) "before the throne" (7.9) before the first trumpet of the Tribulation starts (8.7ff) at which point the parousia of Christ begins. Parousia of Christ begins with the first rapture to the throne then Jesus comes on the cloud then through the clouds to meet the saints at the start of the last trumpet in air (Rev. 11.15, 15.2-4). The first rapture is a conditional rapture for these are conditional statements. The saints who are "alive" and "left" since they were not raptured at the first rapture are raptured with those who ar resting who shall be resurrected that gives us comfort to be raptured together in the final harvest at the start of the last trumpet (1 Thess. 4.14-18).

Eclipses happen all the time, so we are looking out for rare eclipses. The maximum number of eclipses per year, solar and lunar combined, comes to 7. 2,520 is the smallest number divisible by all numbers from 2 to 10. It's Daniel's basic working unit in his seventy sevens. The last seven is also 7 years x 360 days per year. The combination of all these events will help us know exactly when the 2,520 days of the Tribulation take place.

The next feast Tetrad is 2014/15 so this would signify when the Temple construction would need to begin to be consistent with the 6th and 7th Tetrads. And it won't happen again till 2582/83 so we know this is it! As hard as it is for us to believe we are actually the generation Jesus returns to, this should not be cause for doubt about these signs. When Jesus says He is returning and we can know it then have no doubt about it! Praise the Lord!

In front of the Tetrad in 2014/15 are there any unique solar eclipses? There are 4 types and the Hybrid is the rarest occurring 5% of the time. There are 3 kinds of Hybrids and the rarest is the H3 at about 4%. There are also two types of eclipses in general: long-dated and short-dated. Long-dated are very rare. For example, the H3 long-dated occurs in 2172, 2967, 3051, 4349. It just so happens miraculously on Nov. 3, 2013 there is a long-dated H3 Hybrid solar eclipse. It will be the 4th since Christ which is approximately a 1 in 700 probability (3/2012).

But we also need a great earthquake. We have two. Haiti 2010 was the 2nd worst earthquake in terms of total deaths and the highest in deaths per capita. Japan 2011 was the greatest amount of destruction in terms of wealth destroyed and it is the 5th worst in terms of magnitude. Clearly God's judgment is showing itself. Japan is Buddhist/Atheist. Haiti is mostly Roman Catholic. Plus, people ought to know better than to live in such hot zones. Sadly we suffer from the sins of our parents back to 4 generations and people are born in such places. In the first half of the Tribulation the Vatican will be nuked: "And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire" (Rev. 17.16). Revelation 17 is the first half of the Tribulation and Revelation 18 is the second half. These are the details of the major points in Rev. 8 to 11. The first half is the first four trumpets in Revelation 8. Hence, "there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp...the name of the star is called Wormwood" (Rev. 8.10,11).

The probability for the two Tetrads on the two key dates for Israel in the 20th century because there was only one century with two before, combining that with a 2% chance a Tetrad could fall on one of the dates and 1% on the remaining date, we are looking at a 1 in 100,000 chance. Combine that with the solar eclipse with a probability of 1 in 700, the odds ratchet up to 1 in 70,000,000. The odds for a "great earthquake" in terms of deaths per capita or wealth destruction within 3 years of the H3 eclipse is about 1 in 2010.

Combining the trifecta of the great earthquake, hybrid eclipse and lunar tetrad the odds come to approximately 1 in 141 billion. We are not done.

So now we need a 2,520 day period. Since the last 3 feasts correspond to when Jesus returns, Feast of Trumpets which is the first rapture would be the start of the Tribulation. I pray there is a special day on the 2,520th day. But the Feast of Trumpets in 2014 and 2016 don't lead to a special day 2,520 days later, and the 2,520th day from Sept. 14, 2015 Feast of Trumpets takes us to Aug. 7, 2022. Aug. 7 has no apparent holiday.

With a little investigation I found out Tisha B'Av, the day the Jews commemorate the destruction of the 1st and 2nd Temples would be on Saturday Aug. 6 (Av 9) in 2022. However, whenever it is on a Saturday it is held the day after instead (Av 10) Aug. 7.

This happens to be a Sunday Aug. 7. The odds of a Sunday return is 1 in 7 and the odds of Tisha B'Av being held over from Saturday is also 1 in 7, so that brings the total probability to 1 in 6.9 trillion. If one takes into account less than 50% of 2,520 day periods from Feast of Trumptes fall on Tisha B'Av seven years later, we could should double the odds to 1 in 13.8 trillion. However, it's really 100% because there are no two feast Tetrads 18 year apart, no H3-Tetrad combo on record that I know of, and similarly, no great earthquake-H3-Tetrad trifecta prior to 2013-2015 or afterward to my knowledge.

Now we know when the first rapture and start of the Tribulation take place. Knowing this, let us be spiritually ready so we may be acconted worthy to be included in the first rapture (Matt. 24.40-42, Luke 21.36) to be received up to the throne in 3rd Heaven (Rev. 7.9) and not have to pass through the Tribulation. Praise the Lord! Amen.

There are some additional corroborating points. Jesus steps down on the 1260th day of the Great Tribulation, judges the nations to the 1290th day and for 45 days more after that sets up Israel as the center of all nations. 75 days later from the 1260th day to the 1335th day in Scripture takes us to Oct. 21, 2022. This occurs after the 3 feasts. Feast of Tabernacles is Oct. 10, 2022. It runs for 7 days to Oct. 16, 2022. Then there are two holidays after on the following two days, the second which is Simchat Torah when Israel takes out the Torah Scrolls from the Holy of Holies to read them and the items of the ark of the covenant (rod that budded, manna from heaven, and ten commandments). Just as there is a 4 day inspection of the lamb before passover, there is likewise a 4 day inspection of Jesus (Oct 18, 19, 20, 21), starting on Simchat Torah, before the millennial reign begins on Oct. 22, 2022.

There also needs to be 2300 days left in the Tribulation (Dan. 8.14) after the Temple is finished. There are 2300 days from April 21, 2016 to Aug. 7, 2022 so that puts 220 days from Sept. 14, 2015 to April 20, 2016. Passover is April 22, 2016. The 4 day inspection of the Lamb is April 18 (Monday, Nisan 10), 19, 20, 21 to dedicate the lamb and red heifer to the newly constructed Temple. This is fascinating because Daniel's prophecy from the declaration to rebuild the Temple Nisan 1, 444 BC is exactly 69 sevens or 173,880 days to March 28, 33 AD (Gregorian). This first day inspection of the Lamb was also Monday. The 4 day inspection was Monday to Thursday, March 28, 29, 30, 31. Then Jesus died on the cross Friday, April 1, 33 AD which Satan calls April Fool's Day to mock His atoning sacrifice. The irony is Satan is rendered inoperative because our old man has died on the cross with Christ. Therefore, Satan has no flesh to work through since it is dead. Having died with Christ we are able to put to nought the deeds of the flesh. Yet Satan is still god of this world until Jesus returns.

There also needs to be 2300 days left in the Tribulation (Dan. 8.14) after the Temple is finished. There are 2300 days from April 21, 2016 to Aug. 7, 2022 so that puts 220 days from Sept. 14, 2015 to April 20, 2016. Passover is April 22, 2016. The 4 day inspection of the Lamb is April 18 (Monday, Nisan 10), 19, 20, 21 to dedicate the lamb and red heifer to the newly constructed Temple.

Having died with Christ we are able to put to nought the deeds of the flesh. Yet Satan is still god of this world until Jesus returns.

There are for the Two Witnesses 1260 days from April 18, the first day inspection of the lamb, to Sept. 30, 2019 Feast of Trumpets. There are also 49 sets of 7 from the day Israel entered Jerusalem June 7, 1967 to the Day of Atonement, Sept. 23, 2015, the day the 50th year is declared. 2015 is in fact the 120th Jubilee over 6000 years from 3986 BC. Adding up the ages of the Old Testament saints takes us to 4004 BC, so Adam reached the age of accountability in the Garden of Eden when he was 18 years old in 3986 BC. There are a lot more tidbits of information I could provide but I will add this: Ezekiel's prophecy on his side for 390 days then 40 on the other take us to exactly May, 1948 (you can find the calculation at Biblocality Forums). Ezekiel was prophesying when Israel would become a nation again and remain so forever thereafter (apart from the 2 years or so it is overrun during the Great Tribulation).

After 1260 days of the first half of the Tribulation brings us to Feb. 25, 2019 the first day of the Great Tribulation and start of the 5th trumpet (1st woe). The 1st woe lasts five months. The 2nd woe begins July 25, 2019 and lasts 13 months to Aug. 18, 2020. That leaves the 3rd woe which lasts 24 months. Since by 2035 our current 900 billion barrels of oil is tapped out at 37 billion barrels a year (averaging 100 million a day), the nations certainly won't wait till the last drop. So time wise the greatest war this world will ever see fits into the Great Tribulation period perfectly, particularly, the 6th and 7th woes from July 25, 2019 to Aug. 7, 2022. The saddest part of all of this, apart from so many unsaved souls, are the armies totaling 200 million (Rev. 9.16) which will congregate in the middle east over oil and that nuclear holocaust will kill 1/3 of the people of earth in "fire and brimstone" (v.18).

You really can't ask for better signs than these and more serious and sobering impending events to come.
