                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[2nd coming, I cannot even begin to tell you how much you are validating what I have been seeing, researching, and hearing. So very exciting, almost sireal. Been waiting so long.....  I take visions cautiously, but the few I have watched over the weekend are so exciting. Praying for a summer wheat harvest of new grain as early as July 28 and watching steadily through middle of August.

Per Ezra 3:8 “Now in the &lt;b&gt;second year&lt;/b&gt; after their coming to the house of God at Jerusalem, in the &lt;b&gt;second month&lt;/b&gt;, Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel and Jeshua the son of Jozadak made a beginning, together with the rest of their kinsmen, the priests and the Levites and all who had come to Jerusalem from the captivity. They appointed the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, to supervise the work of the house of the LORD.”

For Israel that means October/November for possibly starting the foundation of the third temple :yahoo: :yahoo: :flyup:]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Noah's flood began on the 17th day of the second month, and ends on the 27th day of the second month a year later. If tribulation does happen on the 17th day of  Av this year,  and ends 7 years later on the 27th of Av, then we have a very interesting scenario.

17th day of month X ------------ 27th day of same month X

A note here.

August 18 Av 17 2019 Tribulation begins ——– 2520 days ——– July 12 Tammuz 27 2026 Jesus returns to earth —– 30 days ——- August 11 Av 28 End of 1290 days

When I add days or subtract days, these day count can vary if we include the last day. Adding 30 days to Tammuz 27 2026, we could have come to August 10 Av 27 2026. Then there are exactly 7 years and ten days separating these two days.

Av 17 2019 ---------------------- 7 years and 10 days----------- Av 27 2026 End of tribulation

And like Noah's flood, the tribulation begins on the 17th day of a month, and ends on the 27th day of the same month, except this time is 7 years apart.]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Revelation 2:10 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.

Not every churches will go into the rapture. Some church shall be left behind. They represent the apostate church. Take Smyrna for example. Jesus foretells they have tribulation for 10 days. We know the tribulation shall last 7 years. So these 10 days has to be figurative, and not literal.

Now, let's go back to the number 153. While 3 represents the 3 days of crucifixion, burial and resurrection, 50 represents Shavuot / Pentecost. They both point to the establishment of salvation ( 3 ), and church ( 50 ). And I have stated that 100 may point to the end of salvation, with Jesus returning on Tammuz 26/27 which is 100 days from the 3 days.

Take 2019 to 2026 for example. Tammuz 27 falls on July 12 2026. Jesus shall return on that day. Subtract 2520 days from July 12 2026, we come to August 18 this year as the beginning of tribulation. August 18 also falls on Av 17 in Jewish calendar.

From 1260 and 1290 days, we also learn that it shall take Jesus 30 days to deal with AC, the false prophet and all nations. Adding 30 days to July 12 2026, 1290 days shall end on August 11 2026 or Av 28. Below is the illustration of the timeline.

August 18 <strong>Av 17</strong> 2019 Tribulation begins -------- 2520 days -------- July 12 Tammuz 27 2026 Jesus returns to earth ----- 30 days ------- August 11 <strong>Av 28</strong> End of 1290 days

When 1290 days signals the end of tribulation, here's an interesting scenario. There are roughly 10 days between Av 17 2019 and Av 28 2026, if we take it figuratively.

Are these the 10 days Jesus has spoken of in Revelation 2:10? We shall see.]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Let's look at the number 100 again. While 3 and 50 represent the establishment of Salvation and the Church respectively, I have stated that 100 represents the End of Salvation with Jesus returning to earth on Tammuz 26/27.

Take 2019 to 2026 timeline for example, Tammuz 26/27 falls on July 11/12 in 2026. Jesus returns in the season of summer. Are there any scriptures which suggest second coming shall take place in summer?

Daniel 2:32 This image's head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass, 33 His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay. 34 Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces.

35 Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and <strong>became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors</strong>; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.

The key words are "<strong>became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors</strong>". The stone is Jesus. When Jesus returns, he shall smite the image, the feet and the iron and clay, and break them into pieces. This is the final kingdom controlled by Anti Christ, aka the ten toes. When that happens, they shall become like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors. God didn't say spring threshingfloors or winter threshingfloors, but summer threshingfloors. This shall place Jesus' return in summer. And adding 30 + 45 days to Tammuz 26/27, we come to Tishri 15 Tabernacles as the conclusion of Jesus' judgment on AC , the false prophet, and all nations.]]></content:encoded>
