It has been bothering me that less than 2000 years passed after the Lord's death and resurrection till the Second Coming of the Jesus Christ in most of the educated speculations. Simple calculation is that we assume the Lord died when he was 33 years old, many people were told Jesus was born in 2 or 3 BC. Let's say He was born in 3 BC, that gives us the year of His death and resurrection is 30 AD. 30 plus 2000 years of the New Covenant minus 7 year tribulation gives year 2023, still 3 years away. But, Rabbi Jonathan Cahn, in one of the programs of an adamant post-trib believer Jim Bakker show, said that Jesus Christ was born in 6 BC. That gives us the year of His death and resurrection is 27 AD. 27 plus 2000 years of the New Covenant minus 7 year tribulation gives year 2020 for the Rapture of the Church. Wow, This is it if Rabbi Chan is correct on this. Works for me! TR Not knowing exactly what year it is since the year Jesus was born definitely makes it impossible to pinpoint a year for the Rapture. However when Israel became a nation in 1948 that had to have started a countdown that we could at least get a timeframe from. I am leaning toward the real Pentecost rapture which falls on July 17 this year. Jesus has fulfilled Passover, Unleavened Bread, and First Fruit. My belief is he shall fulfill the next feast which is Pentecost. Some say Pentecost has been fulfilled by Holy Spirit. It is only partially fulfilled. It shall be 100% fulfilled by Jesus. 2nd Coming. I have felt for a few years now that if the Rapture were to occur on a Feast Day, the primary candidate is Pentecost. Can you please explain what you mean when you say "the real Pentecost" is July 17th?
