Will Jesus Christ return to Earth in the year 2015?
And can studying NASA's website provide evidence for such a scenario?
A minister who promotes the Old Testament roots of Christianity suggests a rare string of lunar and solar eclipses said to fall on God's annual holy days seven years from now could herald what's come to be known as the "Second Coming" of Jesus.
"God wants us to look at the biblical calendar," says Mark Biltz, pastor of El Shaddai Ministries in Bonney Lake, Wash. "The reason we need to be watching is [because] He will signal His appearance. But we have to know what to be watching as well. So we need to be watching the biblical holidays."

No sure about the Bible prophecy part, but folks sure have bought into the lie of pretribulational dispensationalism typical of this site.
Oh Lawdy....I'm honored that you place so much faith in my abilities in telling the future, but I'm guessing that divining such events as what are discussed in this thread are beyond my feeble, furry abilities......I think that once I prove an ability in consistently predicting the stock market, I can think about moving on to predicting other things. I'll get back to you on this when the Wall Street Journal features me in a glowing article, heralding me as the 'prescient wonder-stoat' :-)
Oh, name calling, that’s real mature.
Could you be specific ?
XS>But it will occur on a Holy Feast Day commanded by YHvH, the creator of the universe.
There is no such command or idea in the Bible.
Those who look to the feast days of rabbinism for these ideas are described by apostle Paul as being in bondage.
.... (Galatians 4)
The feast days of rabbinism are part of the old covenant and are represented by earthly Jerusalem and Hagar the bondswoman. Those who look for answers in shadowy feast days are demonstrating their allegiance.
But the Jerusalem above is free. The inhabitants of the New Jerusalem have no need of looking for answers in astronomical tables or rabbinic traditions.
Our hope is a sure one. It is based on the testimony of Christ Himself, not the predictions of men.
My previous reply was The creator of the universe commanded the seven Holy Feasts forever. When one makes fun of Jews who are Yah'shua's Chosen People, Yah'shua (Jesus) was not a Catholic nor was He a christian but was and still is a Jew. So those who speak against The Jewish People, speak against Yah'shua ( Jesus ). When one speaks ofThe feast days of rabbinism are part of the old covenant Paul explains in Romans 11 Those who reject the Commandments of the creator of the universe but To try and cite Rav Sh'aul (who was speaking allegorically in Galatians 4 as he stated as such ) Yah'shua himself re-celebrated Passover by offering Himself as the Passover Lamb to cover our sins. He re-celebrated the Feast of Unleavened bread by removing all sin for anyone who would call on His NAME Yah'shua. He rose from the Dead on the Feast of First Fruits where the best was offered to YHvH. The Ru'ach HaKodesh ( Holy Spirit ) filled the Apostles on the Holy Feast of Shavuot (Pentecost). He will come and re-celebrate the Holy Feast of Trumpets, the Day of Atonement and the Feast of Sukkot There are many who believe the "church" has replaced Israel and there is no longer any future events. Preterism ( denying all future prophesy ) many believe began with Spanish Jesuit Luis De Alcazar (1554-1613) Yah'shua is the NAME above all names ; He alone is L-rd ! This personal attack is incredible.
shalom b'SHEM Yah'shua HaMashiach Adonai

But the personal attack remains
one runs the risk of the goat and sheep judgement in Matthew 25:31-46.
They misunderstand both Rabbinical thought and misunderstand the Holy Word of Elohim.
The New Covenant is with Israel and Judah as outlined in Jeremiah 31:31-37.
Very specifically: Romans 11 where Paul discusses who is grafted into whom.
NAsbU Romans 11:17 But if some of the branches were broken off,
and you, being a wild olive, were grafted in among them
and became partaker with them of the rich root of the olive tree,
NAsbU Romans 11:19 You will say then, "Branches were broken off
so that I might be grafted in."
Paul warns against the pride of a Gentile follower of Yah'shua.
NAsbU Romans 11:22 Behold then the kindness and severity of God;
to those who fell, severity, but to you, God's kindness,
if you continue in His kindness; otherwise you also will be cut off.
NAsbU Romans 11:23 And they also, if they do not continue in their unbelief,
will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.
embrace the Paganism introduced and codified by Constantine the Pagan Emperor,
who called and promulgated his will to the Empire, risk the wrath of the creator of the universe.
as a reason to reject the direct commands of YHvH
demonstrates a misunderstanding of Paul the Rabbi trained under Gamaliel the Elder.
in the Future.
Well that site will sure upset the covenant folks who perpetrate the delusion that it all happened in 70 AD lol.
I do not see a personal attack or a statement “making it personal” by reading your mind or attributing motives to you.
I believe he called me a Liar more than once.May you one day know shalom in the NAME of Yah'shua.OBTW why was my reply deleted with no reason given ?
Topcat is very abusive and abrasive;
I have avoided his/her abuse for at least two years now.
I guess he/she is protected by confession.
Topcat has been stalking me with abusive remarks for over two years
In this case if the other Freeper's claim that your statement is false - is false, then that is what should have been said. For instance, "it is false to say the feast days are not commanded in the Bible (with reference to book, chapter, verse.)"
Also, no confession is "protected."
You don't have to explain it to me as I was one of the committee who started the religion forum.
