Could it be, that when Jesus was on the cross and declared, "It is finished" he meant that everything in this physical world, including the keeping of the feasts by man, were completed in Him? He will reinstitute the feasts He wants all to observe during His millenial reign? Just thinking out loud... Grumpyoldchristian, I like your math. Even if it is off a little, and I don’t see that it is, it still points to how close we must be! Very encouraging. Thanks! So I’m a stats person and lining up the current prophetic events along with all the variables, we still appear to be at a 99.9% possibility of being raptured during 2020 and way sooner than later by far, even with the .1% unaccounted for outlier :mdrmdr: :mdrmdr: :good: :popcorn :popcorn :unsure: :prayer-hands: :flyup: Grumpy said, "but Jesus broke the mold with the day of His ascension." there is a long ago thing that happened on the day we call ascension day, 40 days from the resurrection day of 17 Nisan (including 17 Nisan as day 1) 30 days in Nisan. 30 - 17 = 13 more days to complete Nisan. 40th day from resurrection - 13 days = 27 days. 27 Iyyar, or 27th day of second month is Ascension Day. what happened on the 27th day of the second month in the past, in the bible? Genesis 8:13 In the six hundred and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried from off the earth. And Noah removed the covering of the ark and looked, and behold, the face of the ground was dry. 14 In the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth had dried out. 15 Then God said to Noah, 16 “Go out from the ark, you and your wife, and your sons and your sons' wives with you. 17 Bring out with you every living thing that is with you of all flesh—birds and animals and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth—that they may swarm on the earth, and be fruitful and multiply on the earth.” 18 So Noah went out, and his sons and his wife and his sons' wives with him. the other thing about that passage is Gen 8:13, the waters being off the earth. many years later, that was the day the tabernacle was set up -Ex 40 Exodus 40:17 In the first month in the second year, on the first day of the month, the tabernacle was erected. Jesus ascended on the anniversary of the day that Noah and his family stepped out of the ark, 27th day of second month. Acts 1:3 I like your math too Tammie. You are right; what are the chances of all of these things converging? Beyond comprehension for sure! Statistically speaking, the percentage of the probability of all these converging signs is mathematically unprecedented—- in other words, no comparison as there is no other time in the history of the earth following the birth of the savior. So we are out of here in a minuscule variance of time. :yahoo: :prayer-hands: I've been wondering which is safer to ask?! Your age, or how grumpy are you?! TR A grumpalumpagus status report? That could be fun :mdrmdr: :calvin :mdrmdr: Age is a Variable related to the condition equal to a combination of perception of the mind and physical relevance of the body divided by years on earth and multiplied by eternal expectation :yahoo: :wacko: :groan Amy is that from the same tribe as the umpalumpas? :wacko:
He presented himself alive to them after his suffering by many proofs, appearing to them during forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God.
