Listed in a March 7, 2017 Tweet. It is what President John F Kennedy is reported to have said about the CIA just a short time before he took that trip to Dallas.
According to John Hagee on Sunday, 1967 was a Jubilee year, so 2017 is, as well.
“The Hebrew year is 5777.”
Zecharia Sitchin claimed that the Hebrew calendar year 1 was the event at the tower of Babel.
That sounds reasonable. 233 years from the Garden of Eden to the Tower of Babel. The United States Constitution is 230 years old this year, so that seems to be a reasonable amount of time for Humans to screw up almost Paradise. ;-)
In any event, the Hebrew calendar is divinely set because it is used to encode the dates of many events in the Bible in the various Bible codes: Gematria, Big-little letters, and equal letter skip codes.
Is 2017 a jubilee year?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1. No - 2017 is the Christian calendar.
2. No - Yovel (jubilee) isn’t observed and even if it were, it would only apply to a super select few people in the world.
3. No - ‘jubilee’ is just what’s popular among those who don’t live by the Jewish calendar and don’t understand the various cycles - ultimately to prove some ridiculous ‘prophecy.’
[[Prophecy ping, please.]]
Pinging the End Times ping list
Don’t forget the ancient pictographs
They are quite interesting to say the least
even more so than the equidistant lettering and the numeric value of each letter is quite interesting to ( not the sum total but each individual letter )
As the Hebrew sages say, “It’s a tapestry that is so finely woven that only YHWH could have done it.” It defines the end from the beginning! How cool is that? ;-)
Well, he is an endtimer, so presumptions do come easy for him.
We need to speak daily of the coming Rapture of The Ekklesia, so those who are not taken cam have the knowledge to reject the great lie and call out to God for Salvation.
Yes, and we know from the Parable of the Ten Virgins that half of those who think they are saved don’t have enough “oil” for the journey. So we need to help those who think they are Christians, but are not, to get with the program.
With your Bible background may I ask you to help us with something regarding the parable of the ten bridesmaids? And yes, the word should be bridesmaids not virgins. Are the ten bridesmaids, not the bride? These in the parable are the ones who are tasked with watching for the Bridegroom’s approach, to alert the Bride. Is there a more accurate way to understand the players in the parable? The Bride is not spoken of directly, just her bridesmaids who job it was to watch for the Bridegroom. The five with oli for their lamps we understand tyo be those with Holy Spirit fuel. Could we see the five who did not bring ‘oil’ as ther ones left behind when the Bride and the faithful leave? ... Could those left behind be the ones who will show up in Heaven after the Tribulation begins? Or are the five with oil the ones who will show up after Tribulation begins? Can you see the conundrum? The Bridegroom will not be coming for five brides ... the parable is about the bridesmaids.
Understand that we see through a glass darkly at this point, and these things are not “salvation issues”, here is what I think is going on.
When Jesus was asked why his disciples didn’t fast, He said it was because the “friends of the Bridegroom” didn’t fast while the Bridegroom was still with them. So we started out as the “friends of the Bridegroom”, and after the Ascension the true believers became the “Body of Christ” with Jesus as our Head.
The “Body of Christ” was “conceived” at Pentecost in 32/33 AD and will be “born from above” at the Feast of Trumpets in September 2017. This is when the dead in Christ rise first and those who are alive are caught up to meet Jesus Christ in the air.
I think you rightly identified those who are caught up as the five wise Bridesmaids. While we are here we can be filled with the Holy Spirit, to varying extents, but is is more like being “conceived again” than “born again”. These join the Saints that Jesus brought out of Abraham’s Bosom on his resurrection on the Glassy Sea of Revelation 4 and 5.
Those five foolish Bridesmaids are the believers who are alive, and believe, but are just not filled with enough of the Holy Spirit to go. They will be saved, but they have to go through part of the Tribulation and get their heads cut off. (I think this is pretty good incentive to ask for as much Holy Spirit everyday as one can take.) Some of these folks show up at the opening of the Fifth Seal under the altar, and all of them show up as “a multitude from the Great Tribulation”, Revelation 7:9-17.
So that is what is going on in Heaven. Back on Earth, we have the 144,000 male virgin Jews, 12,000 from each tribe, counting Joseph double, and excluding Dan. (This is why I suspect that the Anti-Christ will come out of the Tribe of Dan.) We have the believers who have been left behind, and those whose names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life, but will come to faith in Jesus Christ during the Tribulation and are killed for it. These folks get “reaped” in Revelation 14:14-16.
A faithful remnant of Israel flees into the wilderness and is protected for 1260 days. (Revelation 12:6) This appears to be the people who initially populate the Millennial Kingdom as ordinary human beings. They get 1000 years without any Satanic temptation, but at the end of the 1000 years, when Satan is let loose again, many go over to his side. Not a good move. The rebellion is crushed and the final resurrection and judgement takes place.
Now the good have been separated from the evil, and the Universe undergoes another “phase transition” to the “new heaven and new earth”.
Then we finally get to the part where “the bride, the Lamb’s Wife” is revealed, and it is a city! The new Jerusalem with high walls, 12 gates named for the Tribes of Israel, and 12 foundations named for the 12 Apostles of the Lamb.
Now we, the saved, are still around as individual beings (Revelation 21:24-27) who visit the new Jerusalem, and partake of its blessings (Revelation 22:1-5)
So, to me at least, the Bride is still a mystery. I know there are those who try to say that the Church is the Bride of Christ, but the Bible makes clear that Israel is the Wife of YHWH, and that she divorced Him, He wants her back and will go to great lengths to get her back.
If you stick with being a faithful member of the Body of Christ, keeping His Commandments, i.e., Love God, and Love your neighbor, and asking to be filled with the Holy Spirit at every opportunity so that you can carry out your assigned task, then you are going to be OK.
Thank you for your response.
