Dear twobombs,

Thanks for your thoughts.

With regard to the second coming of Christ, give consideration to this:

On the day of Pentecost, Peter referenced the prophet Joel…because Joel had prophesied of that day. On the first day of the church, Peter marked the signs that mark the initiation of the church, and marked the signs that mark the gathering of the church. John also referenced the signs that mark the gathering of the church; he did so in Revelation. Following this reference, John gave us a vision of the day we stand before Heaven’s throne.

After our gathering, the seventieth "seven" shall commence: 3.5 years of God's prophets and 3.5 years of Satan's prophets.

In the book you will find:

Chapter 2: Revelation
Chapter 3: Daniel & Joel
Chapter 4: Calendar/Psalms

After you've had the chance to review it, I welcome you to comment/question on this thread.

God bless your heart,

Revel
 

Relative to prophecy and time…

Consider the unmistakable drama in the exchanges between Christ and the religious hierarchy on the subject of prophetic fulfillment and the timing of it.

How important was the knowledge of prophecy, and time, to the temple authorities? Their own prophet—Daniel—marked the very year the Messiah would walk in the Holy Land.

But what does the record show?
…Religious authorities giving heed to Daniel, studying the timing of his prophecy…and welcoming their Messiah? …Nope. Too busy making up worthless doctrines of men… concerned about losing their power in the religious hierarchy… preoccupied selling pots and pans and birds and spikenard bottles at the temple. They could have known…
 
Now, it’s our time…

If the timing of prophetic fulfillment was important enough to mark for the first coming of Christ, how can we as the body of Christ—in clear conscience before Heaven—conclude that the timing of prophetic fulfillment is unimportant (to us) for the second coming of Christ?

------------------------------------------------
Here is a summary of what God marked for us:

The Psalms…150 in number… they correspond to the years of the twentieth century and the twenty-first century. This is our calendar.

Historical events of the twentieth century were marked in the Psalms. These events came to pass in the very years the Psalms marked them. This prophetic calendar is (now) anchored in what is already in the history books. It’s history and prophecy interlocked.

Next to arrive on the global stage…the apocalyptic events: The return of Christ to gather the church, the plagues, the rise of the Antichrist (and the condemnation that shall be upon him), Armageddon and the kings that fight with the Antichrist, the Apocalypse and the armies that fight with the true Christ, and the cries of triumph at the commencement of the millennial kingdom…all marked on the calendar…all in line with the chronology given in the Book of Revelation… and in agreement with the seventieth “seven” given by Daniel.

Please allow me to clarify my original post: You can read The Prophecy without charge by simply logging on to the site. All you need is Adobe Acrobat to view it; if you don't have it, you can download it from the site.

Also, with regard to God and time, please give consideration to this:

The prophet Daniel marked the precise year of Christ’s Crucifixion and ascent to Almighty God. God marked time. He enabled his people to know the year to look for the promise of his Lamb, our Savior. Why?

If God marked the first coming of Christ, can he mark the second coming of Christ?
Why not? If God marked the year for the twelve tribes…, why not for the church?
I submit to you that he did: Christ’s return in the clouds and his Apocalypse are marked in time.

Another thought to consider is this: With the Apocalypse marked, the followers of Moses are again informed of the year that their Messiah shall come for them. Only this time, seven years of hell precede it.  

The bigger picture is this: The harvest. Who is ascending and who is left behind? Satan wants as many left behind as possible. We seek the opposite. In these final days before our Lord’s return, truly, his purposes must certainly be ours.

2007: It’s too late for those who reject the truth…
2014: Welcome to Satan’s nightmare…
2015: Welcome to divine authority on Earth…

1945: Prophecy fulfilled

There is a “calendar” in the Old Testament that speaks to our generation….

Regarding his return, Christ said no one would know the moment in time—the “day or hour.”

This statement is in alignment with the way the calendar marks time; it does not address days and hours, but years.  This prophetic calendar marked the timing of “historical” events of the twentieth century, and the timing of end-time events that apply to the twenty-first century—which includes Christ’s return in the clouds.

Read this revelation given in the Old Testament in the book titled The Prophecy…posted at www.thetimeline.org.

God bless.
