The
Revelation 12 Sign and the Number 8 in Rapture Timing (Part
1)
God,
Himself, wrote the number one best-selling book of all time
and had the Holy
Spirit pass it down to humanity by way of 40-some people who
copied it down into
what has become known as the Bible.It
is arranged more or less chronologically from the beginning of
humanity (Genesis)
until the Last Days (the Book of Revelation).
The
Revelation 12 Sign was a series of events and astrological
alignments that took
place on September 23, 2017.These
events and alignments have never taken place in the past and
will never again
take place in the future.They were
unique, they were from God, and they conveyed a message to
humanity about End
Time events.This
message was so
important that God devoted an entire chapter of His book to
them.I am
convinced that the Revelation 12 Sign
was about the Rapture of the Church.It
was a milestone on God’s timeline, from which to measure
forward to the rapture.
September
23, 2017, was not only the date that the Revelation 12 Sign
occurred, but it
was also the Feast of Trumpets (Rosh Hashanah) in 2017.The Feast of
Trumpets is one of the seven
Jewish moedim and many (like myself) are convinced that it is
all about the
Rapture of the Church.
According
to www.biblestudy.org:
The
number 8 represents a new beginning, meaning
a new
order or creation, and man's true "born
again" event
when he is resurrected from the dead into eternal life.
According
to whatbiblesaying.com:
The number 8 is frequently mentioned
in the Bible and is symbolically associated with new
beginnings and the theme
of resurrection.
Both of these references
from the internet suggest to me that the number 8 is
associated symbolically
with the Rapture of the Church in the Bible.
Each
year the date of the Feast of Trumpets varies from sometime in
mid-September to
somewhere in mid-October due to the timing of the moon’s
rotation around the
earth.
In 2025 the Feast of
Trumpets will,
coincidentally, take place on September 23rd – precisely
8
years from September 23, 2017, when the Revelation 12 Sign
took place and the
Feast of Trumpets also occurred.
Based
on the observations listed above, I am enthusiastically
optimistic and hopeful
that the Rapture of the Church will take place on September
23, 2024, which is
both the Feast of Trumpets and the eighth anniversary of the
Revelation 12
Sign.
Please
read Part 2 of The Revelation 12 Sign and the Number 8 in
Rapture Timing
that I will ask John to post in the 5 Doves Letters.In Part 2, I will
discuss what the Revelation
12 Sign was and why I believe it is all about the Rapture of
the Church.I
will also discuss the significance of the
Feast of Trumpets and why I believe it is also about the
rapture.
