'Blood Moon' Eclipse on Holy Monday Sparks Prophecies of 'Rapture'

A rare "blood moon tetrad" will arrive with the start of a total lunar eclipse, beginning late on Monday evening--or, for most of the East Coast, early Tuesday. The eclipse, in which the full moon will be darkened by the earth's shadow, will coincide with the Jewish festival of Passover. In a bizarre, rare calendrical coincidence, the Jewish holiday of Sukkot in October will also feature a solar eclipse--as will both Passover and Sukkot next year as well.

I will stick with the biblical term “resurrection”.
No kidnap and rape for me. That would be most dreadful.

[Ezekiel]

That might be a reference to America.

One of the oddest memories I have is of watching a press conference given by Rumsfeld. I don't remember if it was before or after April 2003 (fall of Baghdad), but around that era.

Anyway, seeming out of nowhere he started describing America as being a country living in safety, without bars or gates. The words and phrases were right out of Ezekiel, but he sure wasn't [intentionally] doing any quoting.

I was shocked but didn't take notes, as I was watching TV at the gym while on the treadmill. Normally at home I wouldn't have been watching TV (and even less likely CNN).

By the time I realized the true importance of the statement (many months later), I tried but couldn't track it down. He was giving these press conferences every day, so it was a needle in a haystack. I wasn't smart enough to get on the computer later that day to find a news video or transcript. :(

Seriously? The Jews believe in a single God, not the triune God of the Christians. In Judaism, the notion that God became a mortal man is incomprehensible.

[Kackikat]

Jesus was a Jew, and the Israelites are God’s chosen people, period. So they believe that God of the Old Testament is God. Christians believe in Jesus as God’s son, and the Holy Spirit given to Christians (ACTS) after Jesus died, resurrected, and ascended into heaven.
God is still God, and Jews worship only one part of him, but it’s still the same God.

“Jews and Christians do NOT belong to God’s family.”

You are kidding, right?

[Kackikat]

So you are just going to throw away Romans Chapter 11: Vs 25-27? Interesting.

[martiangohome]

Yikes. Okay, reverse that.

Christians believe that Jesus is God’s son. Jews believe that is nonsense, since their God doesn’t have sons, or Holy Ghosts, or the like.

Christians like to believe that their God is the God of the Jews, but that don’t make it so.

Total cloud cover here to buddy, I was gonna break out my telescope and have me a big time. Been planning it for weeks. Damn dirty clouds.

[Finalmente]

Was al this predicted in the bible codes?

[Fledermaus]

Just another small inconvenience of living in the heaven known as the south.

I remember climbing half up a water tower on a huge hill to see comet Kohoutek and by dark the clouds came in. Fortunately the comet was a dud.

go watch Noah. or for that matter Captain America

Romans Chapter 11 VS 25-27

I did have one big piece of good luck today. We came within a gnats a$$ of tearing off to Kennedy Space Center to see the space x rocket launch. The kids were whining that they didn't want to go and for once I listened to them. Found out later today that the launch was scrubbed. God almighty that would have been just awful.

"Christians like to believe that their God is the God of the Jews, but that don’t make it so."

From Genesis, the Geneology:

Hebrew ------English

Adam ----- Man

Seth ----- Appointed

Enosh ----- Mortal

Kenan ----- Sorrow;

Mahalalel ----- The Blessed God

Jared ----- Shall come down

Enoch ----- Teaching

Methuselah ----- His death shall bring

Lamech ----- The Despairing

Noah ----- Rest, or comfort.

A full eclipse, not visible in Israel. Yawn. There is a 25% chance that ANY full lunar eclipse will fall on a Jewish holiday. 3 Jewish holidays each year fall on full moons by definition.

Earthquakes come as a surprise. Jews have surprise birthday parties. Coincidence? Earthquakes are caused by Jewish birthday parties. Can a rapture be far away?

[Iscool]

I hope Mr. Darby didn't spend too much time and effort inventing that since Paul invented it thousands of years earlier

Isn't it funny that the religion which kept the scriptures not only from the lay people but the priests is the one that denies what the scriptures say...

And they still don't read nor believe the scriptures and they still deny it...

[Paperpusher]

Since most Jewish High Holy days are based on moon phases, it should not be surprising that Blood Moons fall on Jewish holy days.
See
http://www.examiner.com/article/lunar-eclipse-blood-moon-sparks-woes-about-biblical-prophecy-of-apocalypse

for a good debunking of this theory.

I don’t care about the word, the concept is wrong.

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17, “…then we who are alive, who are left, shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air;…”

1st, this IS the Second Coming of Christ, which clearly follows the Tribulation, and not an event preceding or interrupting the Tribulation.
2nd, it is very public and audible, rather than secret or hidden from those not “raptured”.

[jmcenanly]

Since Lunar Eclipses always occur at the Full Moon, and some Hebrew Holy Days also occur at the Full Moon, would it not make sense that every now and then, a Hebrew Holy day wil fall on a Lunar Eclipse?
