Dear Doves:
Thanks to 1 Cor 10:31 for agreeing with my view.
And here is a new thought.
Since the period of 40 days from the new moon of Elul to Yom-kippur is for Israel for Repentance,
the Rapture could occur as the Church Age ends before or on the new moon of Elul.
1) Before
As I wrote in the previous letter, a conjunction of Venus and Jupiter occurs on 8/27-28.
Interestingly, this conjunction can be seen far better in Israel.
To me, it's a sign from God notifying Israel people that He is taking the Gentile Bride instead of
them because of their disbelief and disobedience.
2) On
As it's written in Colossians 2:16-17, the new moon is a thing to come, and the body is of Christ.
This Scripture must be fulfilled.
The new moon is also called as a veiled moon.
And 2 Corinthians 3:18 tells us an importance of veil.
"And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord's glory, are being transformed into
his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit"
Elul has a meaning of gleaming, and it fits to Isaiah 60:1.
"Arise, shine, for your light has come, and glory of the Lord rises upon you"
"Elul" can be expanded as an acronym for "Ani L'dodi V'dodi Li" meaning "I am my beloved's and
my beloved is mine" (Song of Songs 6:3).
Therefore, if the Gentile Bride is taken on the new moon of Elul, it will make Israel people to seek
the truth and to repent for 40 days for their disbelief and disobedience.
And it's possible that Vincent Tan's $2.34(=9) might be meant for this coming 9/2-4 which is from
the waning moon of Av to the new moon of Elul.
No one knows the day or the hour, but we all know it's very close.
Maranatha!
