Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground? And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it: 9And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down Luke 13:7-9

The prophecy of Jubilees mentioned a 400 year period or 8 Jubilees from 1517-1917. leading up to the Balfour declaration by Britain that Israel would have its own land. Then the land would be barren for 1 Jubilee. June 7th 1967, Israel recaptured Jerusalem in the 6 Day War. The following Jubilee was prophesied to usher in the Messiah. So 2017 could be an important marker--14 years from it is 2031, 2000 years from Messiah being cut off. It also seems to fit Luke 13. 

From 2017 to 2020, Jesus was looking for fruit, the unsaved repenting. The "give it one more year casting dung on it" to see if that increased the harvest could align with the difficulty of the Covid Pandemic turning people to God from early 2020-2021. 

As mentioned in the article from last week, If Jesus was crucified in ad 31, September 2021 potentially being the rapture coincides with the 10 days of awe between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, the Second Coming. The 10 years from 2021-2031 might be a perfect fit.
