The real Christian calendar

The simplest and most accurate calendar made by God himself and set in the heavens for all mankind

The God’s calendar is clearly detailed in Genesis 1:14 and Psalms 104:19.
In original text says – Genesis 1:14 – And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for appointments, and for days, and years:

and Psalms 104:19 reads – He made the moon for appointed times: the sun he knows setting of him.

Thus we see that God created and set the paths of Sun, moon and stars for appointed times (High Sabbaths, Sabbaths) and for signs, days and years.

Thus moon is made specially for the appointed times (high Sabbaths, Sabbaths), that is why no moon or new moon is taken as 1st of months ( no moon is easier to identify than full moon).

And by Sun , he knows setting of him (Psalms 104:19) and stars , sun and moon are for calculating appointed times , days and years (Genesis 1:14) we use stars , sun and even moon (for orbital precession) for accurately measuring the solar year by spring Equinox – usually around March 20,21.

Both lunar cycle and solar year are fairly constant although very minor variations occur in 1000s of years. All calendars used by mankind use this spring equinox and solar year as the reference point by their own intercalations over few years time. Since God has let us known the nearly accurate value of solar year and solar equinox , we need not do the inaccurate and complex method of intercalations in every few years as man made calendars do. Every year the date for spring equinox can be found out accurately and the new moon / no moon nearest to this solar equinox date can be taken as 1st day of the year.

In this calendar set by God we need to just add the extra (leap) days of the 13th lunar cycle to the 12th (last) month, after 1 year and then for 3 times after every 2 years to complete an 11 year cycle of 4 leap years. Then add the extra (leap) days of the 13th lunar cycle to the 12th (last) month, after 1 year and then for 2 times every 2 years to complete an 8 year cycle of 3 leap years. So adding these two (11+8) we get a leap year cycle of 19 years of 7 leap years which is being repeated. 

Lunar calendar from 3999 BC to 6000 AD can be obtained from this link:-
http://www.paulcarlisle.net/mooncalendar/
and this link:-

and solar equinox dates from 56810 BC to 62138 AD can be obtained from this link (android app)-http://www.strickling.net/android_en.htm#PlanetDroid

– please note that lunar calendars for dates prior to 701 BC ( the approximate year when God moved the shadow 10° backward on the dial of Ahaz making the 30 day lunar cycle till then to about 29.53 days) are not accurate as they are ignorantly calculated with 29.53 days instead of 30 days.

From the above links we can know dates 3999 BC to 6000 AD. Also 3 BC – September 11 which could be the correct date of Birth of Lord Jesus Christ according to most scholars. So taking 3 BC as 1st year of Christ Era (C.E) we get a Christian calendar. Thus we can convert gregorian year into Christian year by adding 3 to AD and subtracting 3 from BC (Before Christ). Also AD (Anno Domini- Year of the Lord ) is changed to Christ Era for better understanding of all. BC- Before Christ is not changed as it can be easily understood.

If lunar calendar for more dates are obtained, then we can easily make Christian calendar for that dates also. Thus 2021 AD (gregorian) will become 2024 CE – Christ Era in the Christian calendar.

Notice that since this calendar is exactly alligned with solar year of 365.24219 days, it does not differ in 1 year or so as seen in the current Hebrew Calendar when we calculate from 3 BC (actual year of Christ’s Birth) – in Hebrew Calendar if we take 3 BC as 1 CE we will get 2021 AD as 2022/2023 AD instead of actual 2023/2024 AD if it were more perfectly alligned with solar year.

The link to this simplest and most accurate calendar made by God himself and set in the heavens for all mankind , starting from 2021-22 AD is given here :- https://yahovahrevelations.blogspot.com/

Changing of 360 day year to 365.24219 days and 30 day lunar month to 29.53 days when God gave sign for healing of King Hezekiah of Judah, by changing shadow 10° backward on the dial of Ahaz

The Bible’s account of the global flood Noah’s time, confirms a five-month period consisting of precisely 150 days between the 17th day of the second month to the 17th day of the seventh month (5 x 30 days = 150 days). So atleast, 2nd to 7th month had 30 days each unlike our modern Gregorian or Hebrew calendars. Most of the ancient calendars used by grandsons and great grandsons of Noah like Mizraim, Elam, Aram, Javan, Tarshish etc. were also 360 day with 12, 30 day months . Ancient calendars found in Egypt – Mizraim proves this fact.

In 2 Kings 20:9-11, we read God changed the shadow 10° backward on the dial of Ahaz as a sign for healing of King Hezekiah. 10° backwards in sundial means 40 minutes backwards. So calculating 40 minutes per day for 3 years will amount to about 29.4 days. Thus before this event which occured in about 701 BC , lunar months were 30 days as we see in almost all ancient calendars which got reduced to about 29.53 days and 360 day solar year was extended to 365.24219 day solar year due to orbital variations by which earth’s orbitaround the sun which increased in radius and moon’s orbit around the earth which decreased in radius due to increased gravitational attraction of earth on moon, after this event.

This fact of change of God’s calendar during the time of King Hezekiah of Judah at about 701 BC in which God changed Ahaz dial 10 ° backwards resulting in change of lunar months from 30 days and solar year from 360 days to about 29.53 days lunar months and 365.24219 is further confirmed by the dates that prophet Ezekiel gives in the 5th and 6 th years of of King Jehoiachin’s captivity by King Nebuchadnessar of Babylon as depicted in Ezekiel 1:1-2, 3:16, 4:1-1, 8:1 which comes more than a 100 years after God moved the shadow on dial of Ahaz as we saw in 2 Kings 20:9-11.

From these scriptures we see atleast 430 days have to be finished between 12th of 4th month of 5th year and 5th of 6th month of 6th year. This is impossible in 365/366 day solar calendars like gregorian as only a maximum of 419 days occur between these dates. This is possible only in lunar-solar calendar like Hebrew calendar that employs 30 or 29 leap days every 2 or 3 years as 436 days occur in Hebrew calendar between these 2 dates. That is an additional 6 days for prophet Ezekiel after he completed the 430 days to be seated in front of elders as seen in Ezekiel 8:1.

So it becomes confirmed that after the time of God moved the shadow 10° on dial of Ahaz, Israelites intercalated 29 or 30 days every 2 or 3 years and months became alternating between 29 and 30 days so as to start each month started on new moon, because moons revolution time around earth changed from 30 to about 29.53 days when God moved the shadow 10° on dial of Ahaz as we see in 2 Kings 20:9-1. In Psalms 104:19- says God made moon for the appointed times – High Sabbaths and Sabbaths.


7th day Sabbath and High Sabbaths (appointed times/feast days of Israel) fulfilled by Lord Jesus Christ

We read clearly in Bible – God’s Eternal Word that Christ died (Crucified) on a passover day (1st month 14th day) and was ressurected from dead on the night of First Fruits days after 3 nights and 3 days (1st month 18th day). The week of unleavened bread which symbolizes the fact that Christ’s ultimate and eternal sacrifice on the cross shedding his precious sinless blood for the remission sins of all mankind is observed from 1st month 15th to 21st day. – All four Gospels.

After First fruits day on which Lord Jesus Christ resurrected we read in God’s Eternal word that 50 days later on Pentecost/ Harvest day , Holy Spirit came upon disciples assembled on upper room with great power as promised by Lord Jesus Christ before his ascension to heaven 10 days back and thus God’s Assembly / church was born on Pentecost/ Harvest day. – Acts Chapers 1 and 2.

Pre-Tribulation Rapture is represented by the Trumpet feast. Trumpet of Archangel will be sounded at the rapture and is represented by Trumpet day on 7th month 1st day. Also many scholars consider Trumpet day of 3BC (September 10th) to be Birth Day of Lord Jesus Christ. – 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17, 2 Thessalonians 2:3-7, 1Corinthians 15:35-58.Revelation 3:10, 7:9-17, Isaiah 26:19-21, Mathew 24:32- 25:13, Mark 13: 28-37, Luke 17:26-36.

Second coming of Lord Jesus Christ with 10,000’s of saints and throwing alive Antichrist / Beast and False Prophet into lake of fire and sulfur and killing those with them with the sword that comes out of the mouth of Word of God – Lord Jesus Christ and defeat of Satan and chaining Satan and throwing him and locking him in Abyss for 1000 years as revealed in Revelation 19:11- 20:3 is represented by Atonement day on 7th month 10th day.

Lord Jesus Christ’s millennial kingdom in which saints rule along with Lord Jesus Christ in his 1000 year kingdom – are represented by Tabernacle/Shelters feast on 7 th month 15th to 21st day- Zechariah 14:3-21, Revelation 20:6. This Millennial Kingdom extends forever as Eternal God's Kingdom in New Jerusalem, New Heaven and New Earth and is represented by the God's eternal kingdom, which comes after the previous 4 man made  kingdoms are destroyed as seen in Daniel 2:44, 7:14,27, Revelation 21,22 chapters and  Isaiah 66:22-24.

Final Judgement by God and the New Eternity of New Jerusalem, New Heaven and New Earth are represented by the Last Great Day feast which comes after the 7 day tabernacle feast on 7th month 22nd day. Revelation 20:11-22:21

In Collosians 2:16 – 23 we read these appointed times including 7th day Sabbath are shadows of Christ who fulfilled (spring feasts) and will fulfill (fall feast) these appointed times. And we are not required to set any special rules regarding these appointed times or food or drinks.

But since roman- gregorian calendar corrupted God’s eternal word by their good friday-easter which are mere transmutations of venus fertlity goddess spring festival making time between Christ’s crucifixion and resurrection to be mere 1.5 days at the maximum when God’s eternal word clearly says Christ will be 3 days and 3 nights between crucifixion and resurrection of Lord Jesus Christ will be in the heart of earth as prophet Jonah was inside the belly of the whale for 3 days and 3 nights and that this is the only sign that will be given to a wicked and adulterous generation – Matthew 12:39-40.

Also Roman government changed solar mass of december 25th to ‘Christ’ mass when actual birth date of Lord Jesus Christ was on the month of september in 3 BC. Also 7th day of week Sabbath on saturday was changed to 1st day of week in which pagans of roman empire venerated their sun god idol (sunday) to appease these pagans of roman empire.

Although some christians claim that the Shabbath day was changed from 7th day of the week to the 1st day of the week because Lord Jesus Christ was resurrected on the first day of the week on first fruits day and because by power and anointing of Holy Spirit, God’s assembly was born on Pentecost day which was the first day of the week, they fail to recognise the reality that God set the 1st day of the week only after he already set 7th day Sabbath  as appointed time as we read in Leviticus chapter 23 , when God set the appointed times through Moses. Even before that God set apart the 7th day as holy, after the re-creation of earth and heavens in 6 days as we see in Genesis 2:2,3.


God set the 1st day of the week for the First fruits day and Pentecost 1000’s of years before Christ as the annual prophetic symbolic days that were to be fulfilled by the the resurrection of Christ and birth of God’s Assembly /church as we read in Leviticus chapter 23 and its fulfillment we read in the New Testament in the ressurection of Lord Jesus Christ on First fruits day and birth of God's Assembly on Pentecost/Harvest feast day, both on the first day of week in the Gospels and Acts of Apostles respectively.

Roman government also changed many of the pagan idols to ‘christian’ names in the 5th century AD and used them in prayer and worship as the idolatry of intercession/veneration of saints. God clearly condemns idolatry throughout his eternal words – Holy Bible . Some scriptures are Exodus 20:3-5, Revelation 9:20, Romdns 1:18-32, 1 Corinthians 10:7-21. In Revelation 21:8 God clearly says idolaters and all liars, cowardly unbelievers, sexually immoral, murders , occult magicians will be thrown into eternal hell fire which is second death.

So inorder to restore God’s Assembly/ Church and come out of God’s wrath it is important to reinstate the old Christian calendar that was based on the Hebrew calendar. Also in this calendar the day begins and ends in 6 PM (sunset) as it was in ancient Hebrew calendar unlike the roman calendar in which the day begins and ends at 12 AM (midnight).

In Hebrews 4:1-11 we see that 7th day Sabbath symbolizes the rest which God has promised for all those who believe and trust in him.
In Hebrews 4:9-11 – There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.

For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his.
Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.

Early Christians knew Sabbath, festivals ( 4 spring festivals already fulfilled by crucifixion,resurrection of Jesus and birth of church on day of Pentecost – upper room and 4 fall festivals, all of which are mentioned in Leviticus 23 ) and temple sacrifices ( in the remembrance of ultimate and eternal sacrifice Jesus the Messiah / Christ on the cross at Calvary , Jerusalem some 2000 years ago) all were shadow of things to come of which the  the body/reality is Lord Jesus Christ or in other words they all point to Lord Jesus Christ and the coming establishment of God's kingdom forever.

In the near future when true Christianity will be restored and the God’s house rebuilt in Jerusalem, sacrifices will be offered there in remembrance of Christ’s eternal sacrifice on cross at Calvary, near Jerusalem, shedding his sinless precious blood for the remission sins of all mankind, so that all who will accept by faith this salvation through Lord Jesus Christ shall have eternal life.

The God’s house itself will be called “Prayer house for the people of all nations”. This will happen immediately after the soon coming WW3 and before the rapture. This restored church – the true religion aka the God’ Assembly , will have all people living on earth as it’s members. But when Jesus comes back on the day of trumpets (rapture) believers will be taken and hypocrites left behind on earth to face the great tribulation.


God’s Timeline


32 Events

Approximate year of re-creation event by God can be calculated from 586 BC date of last King of Judah before Babylonian captivity going back through Kings of Judah till 4th year of King Solomon when they started building 1st House of God. From that point we have a 480 years till Exodus and 430 years till Abraham taking Issac for sacrifice at 130th year of Abraham, from which we have geneological chronology till Adam and thus point of Re- Creation, which gives the value of 3992 BC + 11 years = 4003 BC – Christian calendar or 4006 BC in the gregorian calendar.

This 11 years are added as approximation for months as months and days are not given in the Bible with regard age of Patriarchs from Adam to Abraham . So we have about 19 such year points till the Re- Creation event without months , so 19/2=9.5 approximated to 11 years, since more births takes place in September to December months compared to other months.

In 2 Kings 20:9-11, we read God changed the shadow 10° backward on the dial of Ahaz as a sign for healing of King Hezekiah. 10° backwards in sundial means 40 minutes backwards. So calculating 40 minutes per day for 3 years will amount to about 29.4 days. Thus before this event which occured in about 701 BC , lunar months were 30 days as we see in almost all ancient calendars which got reduced to about 29.53 days and 360 day solar year was extended to 365.24219 day solar year due to orbital variations by which earth’s orbitaround the sun which increased in radius and moon’s orbit around the earth which decreased in radius due to increased gravitational attraction of earth on moon, after this event.

We get another calendar from 4003 BC upto 701 BC if we take longer year of 365.24219 taken from 701 BC backwards to the year of Re- Creation by God in 4003 BC in which the year of Re- Creation by God is 3956 BC and if gregorian date of 4006 BC  is taken as the year of Re- Creation by God we get longer year date of Re- creation by God as 3959 BC. These 4 calendars are as follows :-

Christian standard year – actual 360 day year length from 701 BC backwards is taken which takes us to 4003 BC as the year of recreation by God.

Christian long year – 3956 BC is the year of Re- Creation by God, if 365.24219 year length taken from 701 BC backwards to the year of Re- Creation by God in 4003 BC

Gregorian standard year – actual 360 day year length from 701 BC – gregorian year backwards is taken which takes us to 4006 BC as the year of recreation by God.

Gregorian long year – 3959 BC – gregorian year is the year of Re- Creation by God, if 365.24219 year length taken from 701 BC- gregorian year backwards to the year of Re- Creation by God in 4006 BC – gregorian year.

Here after till 701/704 BC the format Christian Standard year /Gregorian standard year/ Christian long year /Gregorian long year will be used.

After 701/704 BC the Christian long year /Gregorian long year format will be used as standard year of 360 days was changed in the year 701/704 BC when God turned the dial of Ahaz as a sign for healing of King Hezekiah.







1. >13.8 billion years BC – God’s past eternity. The triune God ( God the Father- Elohim, God the Son Yahweh Shuah / Yahshuah / Lord Jesus the Messiah/ Christ  and God the Holy Spirit ) existed from eternal past and created all things - John 1:1-3, Psalms 90:2, Malachi 5:2, Hebrews 9:14, 1 Timothy 1:17

– Billions of years are based on limited human understanding that is subject to change , while events are based on God’s eternal word that stands forever. – Matthew 5:18, 24:35, Luke 21:33, Isaiah 40:8, Psalms 119:89, 1 Peter 1:25

2. >13.8 billion years BC – God Creates Third Heaven- Genesis 1:1, Nehemiah 9:6, Psalms 148:4,5, Isaiah 45:18

3. >13.8 billion years BC – God the Father foreordains Son- Lord Jesus Christ as the Slain Lamb , writes names of those who are to be saved in the Book of Life and prepares Eternal kingdom- Revelation 13:8,17:8, 1 Peter 1:19,20, Ephesians 1:4-, Matthew 25:34, Hebrews 4:3

4.~13.8 billion Years BC- God Creates Second Heaven – Genesis 1:1, Psalms 33:6, Nehemiah 9:6, Psalms 148:1-5, Isaiah 45:18

5.~13.8 billion Years BC- God Creates Angels – Psalms 33:6, Nehemiah 9:6, Psalms 148:2-5

- Both angels and mankind are created by God as spirit beings by God's breath (Psalm 33:6, Genesis 2:7). Once created they live eternally  with access to tree of life in the eternal New Jerusalem  , New Heaven and New Earth if they accept God and his eternal salvation work through Lord Jesus Christ ( God the Son ) or die in eternal hell fire  if they reject God. Revelation 19:11 - 22:21, Isaiah 66:22-24, Mark 9:18, Matthew 18:8, 25:41. 

6. ~ 4.5 billion Years BC – God creates First Heaven and Earth – Genesis 1:1, Isaiah 45:18, Job 38:4-7, Nehemiah 9:6

7. B/n 4.5 and 3.5 billion Years BC – First rebellion of Satan/ Helel and cutting off (fall of) Satan to Earth – Ezekiel 28:12-16, Isaiah 14:12-17, Luke 10:18

- When God created the earth morning stars sang together and all the angels shouted for joy as we read in Job 38:4-7. So fall of Helel/Satan to the earth that occured after his initial rebellion ( Ezekiel 28:12-17, Isaiah 14:12-17, Luke 10:18 ) must be after this creation of earth by God. God's word says in Isaiah 45:18 - For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else. So God created various living creatures including birds and near human creatures as we read in Jeremiah 4:23-28. 


We read in Jeremiah 4:25 -  I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled. So there was no humans visible in this pre-Adamic earth. Yet there were cities ( Jeremiah 4:26 ) and birds in this pre-Adamic earth. So God must have created some nearly human being along with birds and other living creatures in this pre-Adamic earth as fossil evidence also indicate . Angels inhabited these living creatures ( serpent that decieved Adam and Eve ) including these nearly human beings and they built cities. 


But when further rebellion of satan taking 1/3rd of all angels to earth ( Revelation 12:3,4 ) against God took place, then by God’s commandment death / futility entered this creation ( Romans 8 :20,21 ) and when they still wouldn't repent of this rebellion against God, earth became ( original text of the Bible in Genesis 1:2 the word is “became” , not “was” ) formless and void, covered with water and darkness due to God’s judgement/wrath upon satan and fallen angels- 1/3rd of all angels and God casts some those angels that sinned to hell and chains them under darkness for judgement of the great day. – Genesis 1:2, 2 Peter 2:4, 3:5-7, Jeremiah 4:23-28.


 


Then God re-created the earth and heavens and created man (Adam and Eve) in 6 days and rested on the 7th day and set apart 7th day as holy and blessed that day as we read in Genesis chapter 1 & 2. After this re-creation and creation of man in 6 days again this satan and 1/3rd of all angels ( fallen angels ) corrupted mankind which resulted in God's judgement with global flood at Noah's times and after that also these fallen angels corrupted mankind at the Babel rebellion which resulted in God scattering of humans all over earth by disintegration of languages and division of earth with water. In both these times God gave commandment both to Adam and Noah to replenish and fill the earth for God's glory, but both times mankind gave in themselves to sin and corruption by  satan and 1/3rd of all angels ( fallen angels ) and God reduced their lifespan greatly , created giants and God gave them to the power of these fallen angels as we read in Deutronomy 4:19  And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host of heaven, shouldest be driven to worship them, and serve them, which the LORD thy God hath divided unto all nations under the whole heaven. 


After this Babel rebellion and fall of mankind into idolatry, God chose Abraham and through him Israel nation and through Israel nation God brought forth his son Lord Jesus Christ for the blessings and eternal salvation of all mankind and all nations that will fear and trust in God. 


This corruption of mankind by fallen angels is clearly taught by Lord Jesus Christ and Apostles. We read in  Ephesians 6:12 " For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places" - which clearly indicate fallen angels. And also in James 4:7 - Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.


Corruption by  fallen angels is seen in fall of Adam and Eve ( Genesis 3rd chapter ) , giants ( Genesis 6:4, Numbers 13:33 )  babel tower ( Genesis 10:25 - 11:28 ) idolatry ( Joshua 24:2, Deutronomy 4:19, Romans 1:22-32 ) sexual immorality ( Romans 1:22-32, Genesis 18:16-19:38 ) rebellion against God's order for safety of mankind, ancient egyptian and assyrian kings hairstyles ( 1 Corinthians 11:1 - 16 ), pyramids, tutankhamun knife, crop circles, ufo and some other unexplainable phenomenon that create confusion and fear in mankind.


8. B/n 4.5 and 3.5 billion Years BC – Further rebellion of Satan taking 1/3rd of all angels to earth – Revelation 12:3,4

- Revelation 12:1-6 -  And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:

And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.

And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.

And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.

And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.

And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.


- The women here in Revelation 12:1,2 is Israel nation as we are confirmed by the dream that God gave  Joseph in Genesis 37:9  which is the nation of Israel with 12 tribes and man child that the woman brought forth in Revelation 12:5, is Lord Jesus Christ who was born by the Holy Spirit and power of God the father - the highest as we see in Luke 1:35 and Lord Jesus Christ was resurrected from the dead 3 days and 3 nights  after he was crucified , by shedding his sinless precious blood for the remission of sins of all mankind, so that all who will believe in Lord Jesus Christ shall have eternal life. Lord Jesus Christ after his resurrection was taken up to the throne of God and there he intercedes for us to God the Father as wee see in Romans 8:34.


The red dragon in Revelation 12:3,4 is Satan who in his initial period after he fell into sin corruption and rebellion and was slain to earth, as signified by the tail region of the red dragon,  took 1/3rd of all angels into his influence and cast them to earth with his tail. In the later period Satan decieved all world through the city of Rome with its idolatry and lies as signified by the seven heads and ten horns upon his head, which which we see again in Revelation 17:3 and 7-18 and is thus confirmed by those scriptures.


9. ~ 3.5 billion Years BC – Death/Futility enters creation – Romans 8 :20,21

10. ~ 3.5 billion Years BC to 4003/4006/3956/3959 BC – Earth became ( original text of the Bible in Genesis 1:2 the word is “became” , not “was” ) formless and void, covered with water and darkness due to God’s judgement/wrath upon satan and fallen angels- 1/3rd of all angels and God casts angels that sinned to hell and chains them under darkness for judgement of the great day. – Genesis 1:2, 2 Peter 2:4, 3:5-7, Jeremiah 4:23-27

Try searching google for “water in black hole”. You will see NASA has found enormous amounts of water on the borders of our visible universe known as black holes.
In Psalms 104:3- He layeth beams of his upper chambers on water…
In Psalms 148:4- Praise Him, you heavens of heavens, And you waters above the heavens!

Also read 2 Peter 3:5-7- “For this they willingly forget, that the heavens there were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water were brought together by the word of God; through which the cosmos (world- meaning 2nd heaven- outerspace, earth and its atmosphere) that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.”

Try to draw this mental picture: Think of a dark and ruined solar system with water strewn throughout it like one big messy galactic spill. That is what Genesis 1:2 is speaking about. And imagine the planet Earth drifting awash in this roaring and rolling, formless mess and orbiting around a dead star. Where would such waters have come from? Well, it is an established scientific observation that aging stars create and give off lots of water.

Certainly there must have been lots and lots of stars in the heavens that were “of old” and, if something had caused the entire cosmos to have gone dark and all the stars died, then there would be excessive water everywhere throughout space.

Also note that by God’s word heavens of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water were “brought together” (greek word “sunestosa” used here means brought together ,cohere or contracted ) and thus cosmos (meaning 2nd heaven- outerspace – entire universe, earth and its atmosphere) that then was, being overflowed with water, perished. This means that by God’s word the cosmos (ancient universe) was contracted so that the water from dead stars flooded the entire ancient universe and thus the whole cosmos that then was ( ancient universe) perished.

The extinguished stars were reignited/ restored /made to work in the 4th day of re-creation by God, so that stars, sun and moon are seen in our present heavens . Before that the contracted universe was spread out by creating a firmament ( constituting the outer space and the earth’s atmosphere ) in the 2nd day of the re-creation by God , which scientists of today might percieve as an expanding universe or as a cyclically contracting and expanding universe, but reality is that this is done by God almighty who existed from eternal past who created this earth and the heavens ( 3 heavens – God’s throne – 3rd heaven, outer space – 2nd heaven, atmosphere – 1st heaven ) and this present earth and heavens are reserved for fire ( 2 Peter 3:7, Revelation 20:11 – And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. )
And after that God’s eternity will begin forever in New Jerusalem, New Earth and New Heaven with all those who trust in God by accepting the eternal ultimate sacrifice of Lord Jesus Christ on the cross at Calvary, Jerusalem some 2000 years ago for the remission of sins of all mankind so that all who will believe in him shall have eternal life and keep the commandments of his eternal words – Holy Bible.

Scriptures speak about 3 heavens-1-Earths Atmosphere-Sky.
2-Outer Space-Angelic/Satanic realm.
3-The real Heaven-Dwelling place of God. ~ Apostle Paul mentions in his letter to Chorinthians about being ascended to third heaven – 2 Corinthians 2:12- I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know–God knows.

Also note that God's Eternal Word - Holy Bible says in Isaiah 44:24 that God is making all things and he is strecthing the universe (also in Job 9:8 ).  That is universe is still being streched by God, which scientists of today might percieve as an expanding universe.  Thus  limited human understanding called science has assumed a cyclically expanding (streched out) - when God first created the the 2nd heaven about 13.8 billion years -( billions of years calculations are also subject to change as it is by limited human understanding called science ) as seen in Genesis1:1 and contracting - when God contracted the universe including earth and destroying it with water as seen in 2 Peter 3:5,6 and then again cycle continues by expanding universe as we see in creation of firmament by God in Genesis 1:6-8. But this cycle will not continue as expanding and contracting forever as limited human undertsanding called science today falsely assumes, but God's Eternal Word clearly says that this present heavens that God is even today stretching out -expanding (Isaiah 44:24)  and the earth shall be consumed by fire as seen in  2 Peter 3:7 on the  judgment day and perdition of ungodly and also in Revelation 20:11-14, and after that New Heaven, New Earth and Holy City of God - The New Jerusalem shall exist forever as we see in Revelation 21,22 chapters.


11. 4003/4006/3956/3959 BC – God begins restoration/ re-creation works and creation of Adam and puts Adam in charge of garden that God created in Eden. God also creates a helper companion for Adam- Eve – Genesis 1:3- 2:25

Note that concerning the second day of recreation in Genesis 1:8 the Lord God says nothing about this being good. Although God says, “it was good” concerning days 1, 3, 4, 5, 6 He does not say that about the work of the second day. Ever wondered about that? The reason is very simple. Although this division was not good, it was necessary to protect the creation from the flaming glory of God’s Holiness. Nothing impure can stand in His presence, and even the presence of a regenerated heavens and earth was not completely pure before God (see Job 25:5).

Also God doesn’t say darkness is good, but God says light is good in Genesis 1:4. That is why in the coming eternal New Heavens, New Earth and New Jerusalem there is no night and sea/oceans- Revelation 21:1,23-25.

In 2nd day God created a firmament between waters that engulfed the cosmos (world- meaning 2nd heaven- outerspace, earth and its atmosphere) which also covered the earth or more clearly the earth was floating in this intergalactic flood that destroyed entire cosmos.

Genesis 1:7-8 -And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.

And God called the firmament Heavens. And the evening and the morning were the second day.

– Thus God created a firmament which encompassed the whole of 2nd heaven- visible universe and 1st heaven- earths atmosphere. The waters above the firmament are perhaps what we now see as water in black holes.

Thus God created a firmament which encompassed the whole of 2nd heaven- visible universe and 1st heaven- earths atmosphere. The waters above the firmament are perhaps what we now see as water in black holes. Scientists consider black holes as the edge / border of our physical universe into something outside were all dimensions exist. What is important is that scientists have found out existense of water in these borders of our universe known as black holes, not some water but trillions of trillion times water than that of all the earths oceans and water systems combined as this link will show you-www.wired.com/2011/07/black-hole-hol
-or just google search – “water in black hole”, if the link is not working.

Thus God’s eternal word says- Psalms 148:4- Praise Him, you heavens of heavens, And you waters above the heavens! and in
Psalms 104:3- He layeth beams of his upper chambers on water

-Light of God’s glory – Genesis 1:3, Revelation 21:23. Notice that light in Genesis 1:3 is not sun, moon or stars as they are created only in Day 4. Thus this light is the Light of God’s glory which we see in the coming New Jerusalem- Revelation 21:23.

– The extinguished stars were reignited/ restored /made to work in the 4th day of re-creation by God, so that stars, sun and moon are seen in our present heavens . Before that the contracted universe was spread out by creating a firmament ( constituting the outer space and the earth’s atmosphere ) in the 2nd day of the re-creation by God , which scientists of today might percieve as an expanding universe.

– We read in Genesis 1:9,10 – And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.

So in Genesis 1:9,10 waters were gathered together to one place and dry land appeared (not lands). This is the first Supernatural plate tectonics- Movement of plates of earth’s crust and upper portion of mantle (lithosphere) by God’s intervention – Genesis 1:9.

Notice that in Genesis 1:9,10 waters were gathered together to one place and dry land appeared (not lands). So Genesis 1:9,10 points to single landmass as proposed by “pangea” – supercontinent instead of continents and islands seperated by waters (seas) as it is now which occured at the end of Babel dispersion (which took about 7 years from the time God disintegrated the tongues at Babel ) at the time when Peleg was born to Eber . Peleg – the name meaning divided with waters in Hebrew also in Aramic and Arabic the term “Falaj” has the same meaning.

Note that that original supercontinent may not be exactly identical to the proposed Pangea. A supercontinent formed by union of proposed Laurasia and Gondwanaland orientations with current regions of middle east occupying the central portion seems to be more probable with regards to the Babel scattering by God.

– Notice that God’s word doesn’t say anything about marine plants being created. Marine plants are composed of Algae and Sea grass. Sea Grass are terrestrial plants that moved to shallow sea near landmasses over time. Like all plants, seagrasses photosynthesize in the submerged uppermost layer of water, and most occur in shallow and sheltered coastal waters anchored in sand or mud bottoms. They could have moved from land to sea during 2nd and 3rd supernatural plate tectonics. Marine algae are not actually plants although they also have choroplasts for photosynthesis, but moving creatures and can be included with other moving creatures of sea mentioned in Genesis 1:20. Also some might ignorantly argue that the Re- creation account of Genesis chapter 1 donot include microrganisms. But God’s eternal word clearly says God created all things which does include microrganisms, Marine algae, sea grass etc. in the following Bible verses – Psalms 104:24, 103:22, Colossians 1:16, John 1:1-3, Proverbs 16:4.


Also note that regarding spherical shape of planet earth we read in God's Eternal Word - Holy Bible - Isaiah 40:22- It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretching out the heavens as a curtain, and spreading them out as a tent to dwell in:

- Isaiah wrote this verse he used the Hebrew word "khug" to describe the shape of the earth. Although this word is commonly translated into the English word "circle," the literal meaning of this Hebrew word is "a sphere.


Also in Job 26:7 - He stretcheth out the north

over the desolation, and

hangeth the earth upon

nothing.


Luke 17:34-36 also implies that Jesus knew the earth was spherical - Luke 17:34-36 - I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.

Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 


In the same verse, that is Isaiah 40:22 in God's Eternal Word - Holy Bible in which God reveals  that he sits upon the sphere of earth, God also reveals in  Isaiah 40:22 that he streches the heavens ( universe ) like a thin gauze ( also in Job 9:8 ) Today scientists have found out that  sun moves around centre of   milky way galaxy ( which is found to be a  black hole at the centre of milky way ) and that planets in solar system and other stars of  milky way move around the centre of milky way galaxy in about the same plane - that is universe is flat in shape. And also this is the same for all other galaxies of the universe thus all galaxies that constitute this universe are in the same plane like a thin gauze - flat in shape. Also scientists have found out recently that galaxies are interconnected by thin cobweb like structures which further confirms the thin gauze like structure which are composed of dense junctional areas ( as represented by galaxies ) and interconnecting thin strands (as represented by these thin cobweb like structures that are recently discovered, which interconnect galaxies) of this universe that God's Eternal Word - Holy Bible says in Isaiah 40:22. That is the whole universe is more or less in the same plane and thus flat in shape. Almost all of the cosmological models of universe ( which is the branch that deals with shape of universe ) have found out that universe is flat in shape and also that universe is expanding. Notice that this verse Isaiah 40:22 says God is "streching" the heavens (universe) like a thin gauze, that is universe is  flat in shape like a "thin gauze" as almost all of the cosmological models of universe have confirmed. Also the "thin gauze" in Isaiah 40:22 implies that the galaxies are interconnected by thin cobweb like structures which which have dense junctional areas ( as represented by galaxies ) and interconnecting thin strands (as represented by these thin cobweb like structures that are recently discovered, which interconnect galaxies).


The term "streching" used in this verse and also in Isaiah 44:24 and Job 9:8 are in present tense. That is God's eternal Word - Holy Bible confirms that God is streching (expanding) this current heavens (universe). Infact the very word "gauze" originated from  "Gaza" region of Israel from where this gauze materials were exported to European and other countries since very ancient times. Thus in reality it is exactly as  God's eternal word - Holy Bible says - in Isaiah 40:22 - God streches the heavens ( universe ) like a thin gauze.





12. 4003/4006/3956/3959 BC to 2341/2344/2318/2321 BC – Fall of Mankind (Adam and Eve) till global flood Noah’s time- Genesis 3:1- 8:22


In original scriptures in Genesis 3:22 read as - " And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one from us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:"

This has been mistranslated as "the man is become as one 'of' us". "From" refers to the origin of things, whereas "of"  is commonly used in possessive structures (the window of the door) or in others. Thus satan decieved Eve when he said you shall become as God knowing good and evil ( Genesis 3:5) when in reality they will become only as those coming from God. Thus only those coming from God can have knowledge of good and evil. God created man from dust of the earth. Because God wanted Adam and Eve to know and experience only good things from him and live with him forever by eating from the tree of life, unless sin enters and corrupts their bodies made from dust by eating from tree of good and evil that God forbade them, man cannot have knowledge of good and evil.


In Genesis 3:22 translating or copying that man is become as of one of us (that is man has become as God ), makes it look as if God is lying as Satan said to Eve you will become as God in Genesis 3:5. On the contrary translating as from God as it is in the original text makes Satan the liar as it is in reality and gives a clear understanding of what happened when Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit which gives knowledge of good and evil.



We read in 2 Corinthians 4:6,7 -   For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not out of us. 

Thus God knew before creating mankind from dust of earth that they will fall into sin and later he will send the light of his Holy Spirit to indwell in their mortal corrupted bodies made from dust of the earth, so that mankind will not boast that this transcendence of the power of God came out of them but humbly accept the reality that it came from God who created them. 



God has not given this transcendence of the power of Holy Spirit to angels, so angels long to look unto these things ( 1 Peter 1:12 ). Angels are not made from dust of earth but by the spirit of God (Psalms 33:6 ). So that angels may not boast that this transcendence of the power of Holy Spirit came out of them and not from God, it has not given to angels, and thus the angels ( sprit beings ) long to see this transcendence of the power of Holy Spirit in the "earthen vessels" of mankind.


Satan and fallen angels ( 1/3rd of all angels ) were already in a fallen/evil state and had experienced God's wrath/judgement of the universe being destroyed by water due to their corruption as we read in 2 Peter 3:5,6 - “For this they willingly forget, that the heavens there were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water were brought together by the word of God; through which the cosmos that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: , and in Genesis 1:2 - And the earth became without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And satan tricked the woman to eat the fruit that God forbade and she also gave it to Adam (Genesis 3: 1-24 ), and thus they sinned and sin and death entered mankind.


Thus unless man is now rescued from his body made from dust which have become mortal and corrupted because of eating the fruit that God forbade, by having immortal bodies from God, he cannot have access to tree of life and live forever.

Thus we read in 1 Corinthians 15:50 -58 - Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.

O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?

The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.

But thanks be to God, who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

And also in Revelation 21:14,15 - Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city. Outside are the dogs, those who practice magic arts, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.


Thus God commands us in 1 Thessalonians 5:21-22 - But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good. Abstain from every form of evil.

And in Galatians 5:16 -But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desires of the flesh.”


Our current human bodies made from dust of earth because God created Adam from the dust of the earth as we see in Genesis chapter 2 and thus rest of mankind that came through Adam was brought from depths of earth as we read in Psalms 139:15 ( cyclical soil formation through accumulation and decay of organic matter through weathering ). 


Before Adam and Eve sinned and thus corruption entered their bodies made from dust of the earth, they were allowed to have access to tree of life in the Garden at Eden planted by God almighty. But once they sinned by eating the fruit of the tree that gives knowledge of good and evil which God forbade them, sin entered and corrupted them and they also became as from God because they got knowledge of good and evil. So God forbade them from eating from tree of life and living forever - Genesis 3: 22-24. 


Those with resurrected bodies which are from God and are uncorrupted because they are washed clean with the precious sinless blood of Lord Jesus Christ ( the Lamb of God ) shed on the cross at Calvary, Jerusalem some 2000 years ago for the remission of sins of all mankind, so that all who will trust in this only salvation plan of God for all mankind through Lord Jesus Christ shall have eternal life as they are allowed to have access to tree of life in the New Jerusalem, as we read in  Revelation 22:14,2. Thus this is in contrast to God denying of access to tree of life to Adam and Eve after they sinned by eating from the forbidden tree in the garden at Eden that we see in Genesis 3:22, because their corrupted bodies became as from God by eating the forbidden fruit that gives knowledge of good and evil when in reality God created them as from dust of earth. This is because knowledge of good and evil is a capability that God intended for resurrected bodies only and not that made from dust of the earth. God's original intention for Adam and Eve was to live forever in the garden that he planted at Eden eating from the tree of life, knowing only good things.




– – Global flood – Genesis 6:5 to 9:25 – 2342-2341BC

God’s judgement on sinful mankind – Global flood in Noah’s times

Height of Noah’s ark was 30 cubits (16 metres -Genesis 6:15) and waters rose 15 cubits (8 metres) above the tallest mountains on the earth (Genesis 7:20) . Noah’s ark came to rest on mount Ararat ( height – 5137 metres) – Genesis 8:4, exactly after 150 days after 150 days after the God's judgement of global flood started. That is from 2nd month 17th to 7th month 17th 150 days as the year length was 360 days and 12 lunar months of 30 days, before God gave the sign for healing of King Hezekiah in 707 BC. Noah’s flood Calendar depicting a calendar with 12 , 30 day months is seen in Genesis 7:11- 8:14.

Thus Noah’s ark came to rest on mount Ararat ( height – 5137 metres) – Genesis 8:4, exactly after 150 days after the God's judgement of global flood started. So by 150 days water had only reached 5137+8 meters as waters rose 15 cubits (8 metres) above the tallest mountains on the earth (Genesis 7:20) . We also read waters started to abate only after 150 days - Genesis 8:3. But there are many taller mountains in the world now, particularly in the himalayan ranges and the andes , Mount Everest being 8849 metres .  So at the time of global flood himalayan ranges,  the andes and Mount Everest were less than 5137 metres or less than whatever the height of Mount Ararat was, at that time. 


So why this discrepancy? – Because after the flood God caused – The mountains rose, the valleys sank down–unto the place which Thou hadst founded for them – Psalms 104:8 – by a supernatural plate tectonic movement by which the mountains rose and sank down valleys beneath the oceans- ocean floors to accomodate flood waters.


Thus this is the second Supernatural plate tectonics- Psalms 104:9- 2341 BC. Thus by 10th month 1st day (74 days after the 150 days)- Genesis 8:5, top of mountains were seen and by 1st day of 601th year of Noah's earth was drained of water and by 2nd month 27th day of 601th  year of Noah earth was dry.



Noah’s grandfather Methuselah died at the year of the flood in 2342 BC. Noah’s father Lamech died 5 year before the flood . Thus Methusaleh was 7th from Adam and Noah the 8th as we see in 2 Peter 2:5, because Lamech (who died 5 years before his father Methuselah ) and Hanok ( who was taken by God when he was 365 years old) are not included in this count from Adam. – 2 Peter 2:5, Genesis 5:18-7:11.


Methusaleh name means "when he is dead it shall be sent". Thus  God  revealed to Hanok that something is going to happen when his son Methusaleh is dead. Note that after Methusaleh was born to Hanok when he was 65 years he walked with God for 300 years  and then was taken by God and thus he was not seen - Genesis 5:21-24.





13. 2341/2344/2318/2321 BC to 1913/1916/1896/1899 BC – After the global flood till God’s covenant with Abraham – Genesis 9:1 – 17 :27

– Babel dispersion – disintegration of tongues and scattering of mankind over face of earth Genesis 11:1-9 – 2244 BC to 2238 BC

Babel rebellion and God’s judgement

Nimrod was son of Cush who was son of Ham who was son of Noah. Genesis 10:10 says- And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.

Genesis 11:1-9 – And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there.
And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them throughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter.
And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.
And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.
And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.
Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.
So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.
Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.

Original text says God disintegrated the tongues (language) and scattered them over face of earth . God divinely scattered them over the single landmass of Pangea . It may not be exactly identical to the proposed Pangea. A supercontinent formed by union of proposed Laurasia and Gondwanaland orientations with current regions of middle east occupying the central portion seems to be more probable with regards to the Babel scattering by God.

God divinely scattered them over this single landmass during a duration of some 7 years and then divided the earth with waters when Peleg was born to Eber . Peleg – the name meaning divided with waters in Hebrew also in Aramic and Arabic the term “Falaj” has the same meaning. Thus present day continents and islands divided with waters (seas) was formed and God scattered mankind over the face of earth. Thus this is the third Supernatural plate tectonics – Genesis 10:25 – Peleg – division of earth ( by waters) – 2238 BC

Also note that God disintegrated the tongues (languages) at Babel, according to the families of 3 sons of Noah – Shem, Ham and Japheth . ( Genesis 10:5,20,31). Thus from them originated all nations, tribes and languages of earth.

– Abraham born – 2044 BC – Genesis 11:26

– Noah’s death -1991 BC – Genesis 9:28,29 and Genesis 11:26 – Abraham 54 years.

– God calls Abraham while he was in Mesopotamia ( Ur of Chaldeans ) Acts 7:4, Genesis 11:31- 12:9 ~ 1990 BC

–  God removes Abraham from Haran to Canaan when his father was about to die -Acts 7:4, Genesis 11:31- 12:9 – 1969 BC.


-  We read in Genesis 18:12 that Sarah considered Abraham ( Abraham was 99 years old at that time) to be too old to bear hear a child . Sarah was barren from an early age as we read in Genesis 11:30. Only 13 years before this Abraham obeyed his wife Sarah's advice and lay with Hagar his cocubine at she gave birth to Ishmael. So within this 13 years Abraham also became old and lost his ability to procreate. That is when God steps in and blesses Abraham and Sarah as we read in Genesis 18: 10-15. After God almighty blessed Abraham and Sarah we see that Sarah who was barren from an early age giving birth to Issac one year after, exactly as God almighty said. We also see that not only God restored Abraham's ability to procreate in his old age by giving him Issac at the age of 100, this ability to procreate was extended to him even beyond death of his wife Sarah at the age of 127. 


For we read in  Genesis 25:1-2  - " Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name was Keturah.

And she bare him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah. " This happened when Abraham was more than 137 years old after the death of his first wife Sarah and the marriage of his son Issac to Rebekah after that. That is how God blesses those who obey and trusts him.





14. 1913/1916/1896/1899 BC to 1432/1435/1422/1425 BC -From God’s covenant with Abraham till exodus of Israel from Egypt and conquest of Canaan – Genesis 18:1 to Joshua 21:45.


– 1913 BC ,1st month – Abraham takes Issac for sacrifice on Mount at Moriah – Genesis 22:1-19.


- In Genesis 24:65 we read that Rebekah covered herself with a veil upon seeing Issac for the first time to whom she was betrothed. Rebekah cam from a pagan idolatrous culture after mankind fell into idolatry after a few generations of Noah probably at the time of Peleg. But Issac accepted the veiling that Rebekah did as we read nothing contrary to that in the scriptures. Issac took her to his mother's tent and took her as his wife and loved her ( Genesis 24:67 ) . Thus we can understand that this custom of veiling woman in divine occasions ( as with marriage here ) was a custom that predates the idolatrous culture that mankind fell into at the time of Peleg. It was followed by Noah and probably even before him in the pre-flood Adamic period. Thus this also confirms what God's word commands through Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 11:1-16 regarding head coverings. This God's commandment regarding head covering is explained in greater detail in the post Five Pillars of coming God’s Church of which all mankind will be members and God’s restoration party in this Bible study aid blog.


- 1884 BC - Twins born for Isaac and Rebekah. And the first to came out was ruddy and all of  him as a fur robe of hair, and so they called his name Esau meaning hairy Esau was also called Edom - meaning red, because of the red pottage that Jacob gave him by which he sold his birthright. And after that came out his brother and his hand was  holding Esau's heel and his name was called Jacob, meaning at the heels (close behind).

Jacob's name is often incorrectly taught as meaning to be schemer/ supplanter etc. when in reality it only means to follow close behind/at the heels.


The kids grew up and Esau became skilfull hunter of open field and Jacob became a  flawless/ blameless tent dweller. This is mistranslated as Jacob was a plain man living in tents, when the correct translation is Jacob was a flawless/ blameless tent dweller.


One day Esau came after hunting weary and saw  his brother Jacob's red pottage and asked him to please let him have some for he was weary. Jacob knew his brother Esau cared little for his birthright and when he saw that it was a good time to ask his brother to sell him his birthright, and so he plotted a little and asked Esau to sell his birthright to him, to which Esau conceded, saying behold, i am going to die, what use is my birthright. Thus Esau's reply confirms that he didn't value his God given birthright as the elder one of the twins. 

This is further confirmed  in Hebrew 12:6 which  warns us not to be profane like Esau who sold his birthright for one meal. This profanity of Esau is further confirmed when he took Hittite wives who were descendents  of Canaan with whom God forbade Abraham and his desendents from  marrying and this was a great grief to Isaac and Rebekah - Genesis 26:35,27:46.


After that Rebekah made a greater plot using  Jacob and got birthright from Esau for  Jacob as recorded in Genesis 27: 1-46. Rebekah then asks Jacob to flee to her brother Laban's house in Paddan Aram to escape the anger of  Esau who  sought to kill Jacob kill Jacob. Rebekah then said to Isaac that she was irritated because  of the daughters of Heth:if Jacob take a wife of the daughters of Heth such as these which are of daughters of the land then what good shall my life do me? 


Thus Jacob departed for Laban's house but before departing he prayed to God to bless him  and allow him to return safely. And God blessed him and after many years Jacob returns with 2 wives and 11 sons and 1 daughter and great  number of flocks, herds and camels, manservants and womenservants. In an effort to make peace with Esau Jacob makes arrangements to protect his wives, womenservants and children by sending them over the Jabbok river to other side.

And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day. And when he saw that he prevailed not against him he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him. And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me. And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob. And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as thou has struggled with God and with men, and hast prevailed. Genesis 32:22-28. This is again confirmed in Genesis 35:10 And God said unto him, Thy name is Jacob: thy name shall not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy  name: and he called his name Israel.

- Zecheriah13:8,9 is not about only Israel or Jewish people in Armageddon as many Bible scholars interpret but in reality it is about the whole mankind that God created on this earth. Notice the words "on the whole earth"- that is whole earth through time and space till eternity,1/3rd of mankind that God created will be left therein as they will have eternal life, the rest 2/3rd of mankind will perish and die in eternal hell fire. 


Also notice the fact that Zecheriah 13:7 is a prophecy about the crucifixion of Lord Jesus Christ that occured some 2000 years ago in Calvary, Jerusalem and at that time his disciples left Jesus exactly as God revealed to Zecheriah many centuries before that event. Thus this prophetic verse of Zecheriah 13:7 points to the fact that Lord Jesus Christ was crucified by shedding his sinless precious blood on the cross at the Calvary, Jerusalem some 2000 years ago for the remission of sins of all mankind so that all who will believe in Lord Jesus Christ will have eternal life. Thus in the next verses Zecheriah 13:8,9 God is saying in the whole earth through time and space till eternity,1/3rd of mankind that God created will be left therein as they will have eternal life, the rest 2/3rd of mankind will perish and die in eternal hell fire.


Also notice the Bible verses in Revelation 12:4 in which God points out 1/3rd of all angels followed satan and his rebellion against God and fell from their God given destiny.




19. 35 CE / 32 AD to 73 CE / 70 AD – New Testament God’s Assembly and destruction of Jerusalem by Romans and scattering of Jews all over the world – Acts 1:12- Revelation 5:14

– Birth of God’s Assembly – Pentecost/ Harvest feast day – 9/3/35 CE – Acts 2:1-42




20. 73 CE / 70 AD to 453 CE / 450 AD – Early God’s Assembly- Revelation 2:1-11-dual understanding




21. 453 CE / 450 AD to 1423 CE / 1420 AD – Idolatry and Lies corrupt much of God’s Assembly – 1 Timothy 4:1-4, Revelation 2:12-29 -dual understanding




22. 1423 CE / 1420 AD to present times – Restoration of God’s Assembly- Joel 2:28,29, Revelation 3:1-22- dual understanding




23. 1951 CE / 1948 AD to present times- Restoration of Israel nation- Amos 9:14,15, Ezekiel 37:10-23, Ezekiel 4:3-6, Leviticus 26:3,7,8,18-28


- In 2 Peter 3:8 we read - But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. – Also in Psalms 90:4 – Prayer of Man of God – Moses.


So taking 701 BC as this event when God changed 10 ° backward on King Ahaz’s dial as sign for King Hezekiah’s healing, backwards until the point of 6 day Re- Creation by God are 360 day years – which from Bible chronology we get as 4006 BC. But taking this as 365.24219 day year as it is now we get 3959 BC as the creation year, and so 6000 years 6 days will be completed in 2041 AD . Since timings may not be accurate any dates from 2039 to 2042 are possible.


Hosea 5:14-6:3 shows 2 days = 2000 days from AD70 or 69 or 68 (possible dates of Destruction of Jerusalem ).

So if 2 days are taken as 2000 years of 360 days each as other Old Testament prophecies of Daniel 70 weeks (Daniel 9:24-27) and Ezekiel 430 year ( Ezekiel 4:3-6 , which was multiplied 7 times according to Leviticus 26:18,21,23,24,27,28) then we arrive at 2041 as the possible date of Lord Jesus Christ coming to take His Church.


Since timings may not be accurate, particularly with regards to destruction of Jerusalem which is said to have taken place either in 68,69 or 70 AD, any dates from 2039 to 2042 are possible.


Majority of world nations including Israel got independence after WW2 during the period from 1945AD to 1989AD, this is what Lord Jesus Christ said in the parable in Luke 21:29,30 , where the fig tree is Israel and other trees the other nations of which most are in Asia and Africa that got independence during this same period.


In Mark 13:28-30 to Matthew 24:32-34 this same parable by Lord Jesus Christ is presented a little differently because it focus only on Israel the fig tree and the particular period when its branch is yet tender and puts forth leaves. This period occured in the 6 day war in 1967 AD, when Israel recaptured most of its long lost lands including all of Jerusalem.


Thus if we take the time period given in Luke 21: 29,30, which is from 1945 AD to 1989 AD, 1967 AD will fall almost to the middle of it. Thus Luke 21:29-32 Mark 13:28-30 and Matthew 24:32-34 is speaking the same thing although in Luke it is given in a broader view with respect to many other nations ( other trees ) that regained independence during this same period.


From Psalm 90:10 we see that time span of a generation is 70 to 80 years and so from 80 years from 1967AD we reach 2047AD, which is about the time Lord Jesus Christ will set up his eternal kingdom on this earth after the 7 year great tribulation period and thus all these things will come to pass in the same generation from 1967AD to 2047 AD, which also points to the timing of the rapture (coming of Lord Jesus Christ to take back his faithful believers from this earth to heaven before the 7 year great tribulation period that will occur on all inhabited earth) to be about 2040-41 AD.



Also in the coming millenial rule of Lord Jesus Christ year length could be 360 days making 360000 days instead of 365242.19 days if the changed year length is taken.

This extra 5242.19 days may account for the below given 5 events that comes after the pre-tribulation rapture of God’s Assembly excluding the 1000 year rule of Lord Jesus Christ . Note that the millenial (1000 year) rule of Lord Jesus Christ doesn’t come to an end at 1000 years – note that satan and the people whom he decieved (gog and magog) where destroyed by fire from heaven when they surrounded the camp of saints and the beloved city and thus God’s eternal kingdom continues forever in the New Jerusalem , New Heaven and New Earth : –


1. The possible gap period between the Rapture and the 7 -360 day year tribulation ( delusion and wrath period) 


2. 7 year – 7 × 360 day year tribulation ( delusion and wrath period )


3.Possible time between Lord Jesus Christ destroying beast and false prophet and those with them and chaining of satan for 1000 years and setting up of God’s Eternal Kingdom .


4.Time of 2nd gog magog war when satan is set loose after 1000 years


5.The final judgement of God.


Thus 7 days of God ( 7000× 365.24219 days) will be over and from the 8th day onwards New Eternity of New Jerusalem , New Heaven and New Earth shall begin for all who will trust in Lord Jesus Christ.




- Negative stereotyping  by false counter reformation activities of secularism, feminism, atheistic evolution and communism is being actively pursued by freemason- jesuit axis and other agents of mystery babylon - rome. This is done through dual definitions given to these ideologies so that the false , more harmless and easily palatable definition is given to the general public, but the real destructive definition is hid from the general public by agents of catholic sect and rome.



Secularism is defined as general harmony and peace between various religious sects, but in reality it is for the creation of single pan idolatrous religion in rebellion with God based on atheistic evolution and other lies under the control of satan through mystery babylon - rome. Catholicism is a minor version of this pan idolatrous religion incorporating christian pagan idolatrous themes through which satan and mystery babylon rome exerts influence over mankind for their own eternal destruction. This pan idolatrous religion will become more evident when the Holy Spirit of God is taken out of this earth along with the God's Holy Assembly in whom this Holy Spirit of God indwells before the 7 year great tribulation period. 



Feminism is defined as empowerment of women and equality between the sexes. But in reality it is a lie based on atheistic evolution lie and other lies like misinterpretation of scriptures  ( God's eternal Word - Holy Bible ) . Thus this feminist lie destroys the safety boundaries set by God for mankind and destroys family and society through lies like promoting seductive dressing and fashion for women, claiming falsely that it will empower women and earn them equality with men, and also degrading God's truth by promoting the lie of female Pastors/Bishops and promoting sexual immorality like homosexuality.



Communism/Socialism is defined as equality between masses particularly economic equality but in reality its a lie based on atheistic evolution lie and othed lies that seeks to destroy the natural Godly order that according to the work wages should be and Godly charity of helping the poor. This is done by taking God out of the society and giving power into the hands of crony, crooked and corrupt people through fraud elections and other means and satan using these crony, crooked and corrupt governments to loot the hard work of the masses and destroy those who expose the truth.


 This was clearly seen to whole world through National Socialist Government of Germany in WW2 by its massacring of 6 million Jews and 5 million Slavic people and also through Stalin and other rulers of communist/socialist USSR that massacred some 20 million of its own people. Also the communist government of Combodia which killed more than a million of its own people because they where not farmers and through activities of all other communist/socialist governments.


Thus it is the duty of every Christian to use the superficial false definitions of each of these lies that are secularism,  feminism, communism which are inturn based on atheistic evolution and other lies and use it for restoration of God's kingdom and God's Holy Assembly /Church on this earth by preventing the real destructive definitions of these lies coming to pass by the power of God through his Holy Spirit as God clearly commands in Revelation 18 Revelation 18:6 - Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.


Isaiah 3:1- 4:6 deals God's judgement on feminist, secularist, communist, atheistic evolution lies and sexual immorality of seductive womens fashion that occured in the world in the last days that is 20th and 21st centuries, and God's cleaning and restoration of Jerusalem, Israel and whole earth from these lies and sexual immorality of  seductive womens fashion and other sexual immorality and lies.




- In Daniel 2:42 in original text we read -  And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so at end of the kingdom it shall be partly strong, and partly frail.


Also in Daniel 7:20,24-27,  Revelation 12:3, 13:1-18, 17:10-18 we read these 10 toes as 10 horns.


So at the end of Roman Empire ( 4th Empire in the dream of King Nebuchadnessar ),  10 kingdoms will emerge from Roman empire, which we see today as - Italy, Switzerland, France, Spain, Luxembourg, Belgium, Netherlands, Germany and Austria. They are partly strong like iron and partly frail like clay. 


Iron like destroying strength of roman empire denotes its despotic monarchial rule with its corrupted idolatrous catholic religion.


These 10 countries have been influenced by true Christianity - Protestantism and before that by Anabaptists, Waldensians, Cathars, Paulicians, Bogomils, Celtic Christians, Gothic Christians and various other true Christian groups. But this rock like strength of God's kingdom ( The final 5th kingdom that replaces all these 4 empires is God's kingdom which is rock that is cut out without hands - cut out without hands meaning that it is not by power of man but by the power and will of Almighty Living Eternal God ) has been weakened to clay ( clay comes from rock ) due to anti-Christian counter reformation activities of idolatrous heretic catholic sect which are lies of secularism, atheistic - evolution, feminism and communism and that was done through jesuit-freemason axis. Thus clay represents secular multi party democracies influenced by lies of atheistic evolution,feminism and communism.


Although in this earth, iron may be stronger than rock, but reality is that this is a supernatural ( Divine ) rock cut out without hands that destroyed the whole statue made of gold, silver, brass, iron and clay and then became a great mountain that filled the whole earth and continued forever and thus God' eternal kingdom will encompass the whole universe , that is the coming New Jerusalem, New Heaven and New Earth forever ( Revelation 21:1- 22:21, Isaiah 66:22-24 ) as this universe - heavens and the earth will be destroyed by fire 2 Peter 3:7, Revelation 20:11.


After these ten horns the beast denoted as as another horn different from these 10 will arise and will subdue 3 of the 10 kingdoms - Daniel 7: 24


We read in Revelation 17:12  And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.

So these 10 kingdoms shall rule one hour with the beast. One hour could mean the 7 year great tribulation period that comes just before the setting up of God's eternal kindom as Revelation 3:10 also says.


The ten horns - These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.

These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful. - Revelation 17:13,14.


We also read - And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.

For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.

And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth. - Revelation 17:16-18. 

Thus these 10 kingdoms which emerged from Roman empire will hate the city of Rome and burn it with fire.





24. Future – Future – Israel's neighbours defeated in their war against Israel –Isaiah 17:1-14 , Jeremiah 49:34-39, Psalm 83:1-18, Zechariah 12:2-8


- This current Israel Hamas war that was started in October 2023 by Hamas attack on Israel, could escalate to a regional war to fulfill various prophecies of God's Eternal Word - Holy Bible like - Isaiah 17:1-14 , Jeremiah 49:34-39, Psalm 83:1-18, Zechariah 12:2-8.



- Zecheriah 12: 6 says - And Jerusalem will be inhabited in her own place , even in Jerusalem. This denotes the heavily contested orginal area of old Jerusalem which today is 80% inhabited by gentiles, although Israel has full control over Jerusalem from 1967 onwards, after the Psalm 83 war, Isaiah 17 etc.,majority area of this Old Jerusalem will be inhabited by Jewish population and probably God's House that was destroyed by Romans in AD70 will be rebuilt as other prophecies of God's Eternal Word - Holy Bible says. The God’s House will be rebuilt in Jerusalem and it shall be called “the house of prayer for people of all nations” exactly as Jesus predicted nearly 2000 years ago . Animal and other sacrifices will be offered there in the remembrance of the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross, just as it symbolized the coming sacrifice of Lord Jesus Christ in the old testament period. This will remain till coming of Lord Jesus Christ in mid heavens to take his church from this earth ( rapture). 


- God's house could be built at any time before the rapture of God's Assembly. It could be either after Psalm 83 war or after first Gog Magog war when God's Holy Spirit is poured upon Israel nation and Israel as a nation looks upon God whom they pierced by crucifying Lord Jesus Christ on the cross some 2000 years ago in repentence, which will occur after the first Gog Magog War as we see in Zecheriah 12:9 - 13:2.


- In Deutronomy 18:15, Jeremiah 31:31-34 , Luke 5:37-39 , Hebrews 8:13 and many other scriptural verses indicate that old Mosaic covenant will be replaced by a new and better covenant which is the Melchizedek covenant ( Hebrews 6:20 - 9:28 ) in which Holy Spirit of God resides within the believer and teaches him to lead a life pleasing to God. So God also made some changes in the Mosaic Levitical sacrificial laws given to Israel in Numbers 28,29 chapters as we see in the Millenial God's House ( 4th God's House ) in Jerusalem in Ezekiel 46:4-7,11-15, 45:13 - 25, 43:18-27, when God's Kingdom is established forever on this earth and Jesus Christ rules all earth from Jerusalem for a 1000 years which shall continue forever after that in the  New Jerusalem , New Earth and New Heaven as this present earth and heavens will be destroyed by fire in the final God's judgement ( Revelation 20,21,22 chapters ). Whether these changes shall be made in the 3rd God's House which shall be present in the 7 year great tribulation period and some years before that is something that needs to be seen. Also whether these animal and grain sacrificial offerings in God's House shall continue forever in New Earth , New Jersualem , New Heavens we donot know. But Revelation 21:22 we are told there will be no God's House in New Jersualem, for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the God's House of it. According to Revelation 10:4 there are still things not revealed.



 This current Israel hamas war that was started in October 2023 could escalate when Israel is provoked to attack Iran nuclear facilities by Iranian proxies as Israel has already attacked Syrian and Iraqi nuclear facilities in the past. Iranian proxies like Hezbollah, Syrian Govt and Houthis are also currently at war with Israel. Then Iran will give a lethal blow to Israel using their Syrian proxy ( Isaiah 17:4 - 11 ) and at that point the sorrounding nations will conspire against Israel to destroy them laying seige against Jerusalem and Judah ( Zecheriah 12:2-8, Psalm 83:1-18 ) and at that point onwards God will start to intervene miraculaously ( Zecheriah 12:4,5 ) and Israel will defeat and devour surrounding nations, fulfilling Isaiah 17:1-14 , Jeremiah 49:34-39, Psalm 83:1-18, Zechariah 12:2-8.


- Traditionally Bible scholars interpreted Zecheriah 12:1-9 as the Armageddon war in which all nations come against Jerusalem mentioned in Zecheriah 14:1- 21 and Revelation 19:11-21, which occurs at the end of the 7 year great tribulation period when Lord Jesus Christ will come with 10000s of saints and set up God's eternal kingdom on this earth which will continue forever ,initially on this earth for a 1000 year period and it shall continue forever in the coming New Jerusalem, New Heaven and New Earth. Zecheriah 12:1-9 is not the Armageddon war, because there is no mention of seige against Jerusalem in Zecheriah 14:1. In Zecheriah 14:2 - 4 we see that God will gather all nations against Jerusalem in battle and city will be taken, houses rifled, women ravished and half of the city shall go into captivity and the residue of the people shall not be cutt off from the city. Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.

And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. So we can see very clearly Zecheriah 14:1 is the invasion of Jerusalem in which city shall be captured just before the second coming of Lord Jesus Christ to this earth. There is no mention of any seige here. On the contrary in Zecheriah 12:2 we see a seige against both Judah and Jerusalem by surrounding nations. Zechariah 12:2 reads that Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about ( surrounding nations ), when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem. In Zecheriah 12:3 we see that all the nations are gathered on Jerusalem, but there is no mention of all nations going in battle to Jerusalem and capturing Jerusalem as we read in Zecheriah 14:2. Notice that in Zecheriah 12:3 all nations "are" gathered "on" Jerusalem , which means it is an indirect ( on ) and continuous ( are ) stance of all world nations particularly since the creation of Israel nation in 1948. This indirect and continuous stance of all nations against Jerusalem is that East Jerusalem be made capital of Palestine and thus dividing Jerusalem which in God's eyes is always the undivided capital of Israel. We can see that this was the policy regarding Jerusalem of even USA continuously. Moreover in Zecheriah 12:3-8 we see that this seige is unsuccesful and Israeli armies will devour all the surrounding nations on the right and the left. In Zecheriah 12:9- 13:2 we see a glimpse of the first Gog Magog war that comes some years after this unsuccesful seige against Jersualem and Judah and after that first Gog Magog war God pouring out his Holy Spirit upon Israel nation and Israel nation turning back to God Lord Jesus Christ in repentance.




- Isaiah 17:7,8 indicate that when Iran will give a lethal blow to Israel using their syrian proxy, there will be a general  repentance of mankind by leaving their idolatry and turning to their maker God almighty and his eternal salvation through Lord Jesus Christ. But as we see in Revelation 9:20 there will be many who will secretly or openly continue their idolatry against God to incur God's eternal wrath. This general repentance of mankind and turning back to God will be followed by Israel as a nation looks upon God whom they pierced by crucifying Lord Jesus Christ on the cross some 2000 years ago in repentence, which will occur after the first Gog Magog War as we see in Zecheriah 12:9 - 13:2.




25.Future- Gog Magog war -1- Ezekiel 38: 1- 39:29

- God pours out his Holy Spirit  upon Israel nation and all people of this earth and Israel nation will look unto the Lord whom they pierced and cry in repentance - Ezekiel 39:29, Daniel 12:10-14, Acts 2:17, Joel 2:28.


  



26. Future – Brief Time of Peace – 1 Thessalonians 5:3.


- God gives mankind maximum time for repentance. So it is likely that the rapture ( departure of God's Assembly from earth to heaven ) will occur just after the first Gog Magog war mentioned in Ezekiel 38,39 chapters of God's eternal word - Holy Bible. This is likely also because in 1 Thessalonians 5:2-3 of God's eternal word - Holy Bible, it is said that For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.


That travail upon a woman with child is the 7 year great tribulation period from which those reject God will not escape. Those who trust in God that is God's Assembly, will know that this peace that comes after the first Gog Magog war will be very short lived and that rapture (departure of those who really trust in God from this earth to heaven) and the 7 year great tribulation period after the rapture will soon follow. 


So we need to continue in trust and fear of God and wash our cloths (minds), by renewing our mind in repentance with the power of Holy Spirit of God and with the precious and sinless blood of Lord Jesus Christ which was shed on the cross at calvary, Jerusalem some 2000 years ago for the remission of sins of all who will trust in God.







27. Future – Coming of Lord Jesus Christ in mid-heavens to take his faithful believers (church) before the 7 year great delusion and wrath/ tribulation period -Rapture. – 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17, 1:10, 5:1-11, 2 Thessalonians 2:3-7, 1:7, Revelation 3:10, 7:9-17, 1 Corinthians 15:23, 15:35-38, Isaiah 26:19-21, Mathew 24:13 & 24:32- 25:13, Mark 13:28-37, Luke 17:26-36, Romans 5:8,9.


– God controls everything in the universe , but he has allowed satan and fallen angels to influence/corrupt the 2nd heaven , 1st heaven and earth for a short time between past and future eternities. God rules in 3rd Heaven and his will is done now in 3rd Heaven ( Matthew 6:10, Luke 11:2). In near future there will be a battle in heaven between Michael and his angels and dragon ( satan ) and his angels and this  takes place along with rapture (departure of God’s Assembly from earth to heaven ) or just after the rapture , but before the middle of 7 year great tribulation period and dragon and his angels prevailed not and neither was their place found any more in heaven as we see in Revelation 12:7-14 - And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,

And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.

And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.

And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.

And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.


For a better understanding of the chronological order, the Book of Revelation can be divided into 7 parts. They are as follows:-


1. Revelation 12:3,4 - Further rebellion of Satan taking 1/3rd of all angels to earth after his initial rebellion against God.



2. Revelation 12:1,4,5 - Israel nation and First coming of Lord Jesus Christ.



3. Revelation 1:1- 5:14 -  Revelation of Lord Jesus Christ , instructions to the early Church and indirectly to the whole Church age, vision of the Heaven and the Throne of God.



4. Revelation -  6:1- 11:19, 12:6- 12  -  First half of 7 year great tribulation period. 


Revelation 7:9- 17 is a vision of Saints in Heaven after the Rapture. The Rapture will occur before the begining of 7 year great tribulation period and the saints who are raptured is seen in this vision as standing before the Throne of God in Heaven. So it can be considered to be along the chronological order after Revelation 7:8.


- Revelation 7:14  says multitude of saints from all nations, tribe, peoples and languages whom nobody could number "came out " of the great tribulation and washed their robes clean with the blood of the lamb. The phrase "came out of the great tribulation " in Revelation 7:14 confirms the  phrase "I also will keep you out of the hour of temptation" in Revelation 3:10. Thus these innumerable multitudes of saints seen before the throne of God are the saints who are raptured before the 7 year great tribulation and thus they "came out of the great tribulation" as in  Revelation 7:14 or "are kept out of the hour of temptation which is the 7 year great tribulation period" as in Revelation 3:10, by being departed from this earth to heaven as we read in 2 Thessalonians 2:3,7 and 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17.



-  Revelation 11:3  speaks about the first half of 7 year great tribulation period and the second half of the 7 year tribulation period is mentioned in Revelation 11:2. This second half of the 7 year tribulation period is also mentioned in Revelation 12:6,14,13:5, and also in Daniel 12:7,11 and 12. In Daniel 9:27 both first half and second half of the great tribulation period is mentioned.


- The tribulations of the 7 year great tribulation period starts before the half of the 7 year period. It is mentioned from Revelation 6:1 to 19:21. It starts with 7 seal judgements and in the 7th seal judgement is embedded 7 trumpet judgements and in the 7th trumpet judgement is embedded 7 vials of final judgements. The last 3 trumpet judgements, that is 5th,6th and 7th are also called as woes in Revelation 8:13, 9:12, 11:14.




5. Revelation 12:13- 19:21 - Second half of 7 year great tribulation period that ends by defeat and destruction of satanic forces by Lord Jesus Christ.



6. Revelation 20:1- 15 - Chaining of Satan for 1000 years and judgement,  First Resurrection , Global millenial rule of Lord Jesus Christ, 2nd Gog Magog war, 2nd Resurrection and final judgement by God.



7. Revelation 21:1- 22:21 - Future eternity of New Jerusalem, New Heaven and New Earth.





28. Future – Great delusion and wrath/tribulation of God on unbelievers and hypocrites for 7 years – Revelation 6:1-19:11, Revelation 3:10, Daniel 9:27, 12:1,2,7, Zechariah 14:1,2 , Matthew 24:15-28, Mark 13:14-23, Luke 21:34,35 Isaiah26:20,21, 24:1-20, Job 38:22,23, 2 Thessalonians 1:6,8


- Daniel 9:27 says that he ( prince to come/beast/antichrist ) shall make a firm covenant with many for one week; and for half of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the offering to cease; and upon the wing of detestable things shall be that which causeth appalment; and that until the extermination wholly determined be poured out upon that which causeth appalment.


So the covenant could be not just with Israel but also other nations. Also the covenant need not be for 7 years , it can even be for an indefenite period. The important thing is covenant will last only for 7 years as this prince to come/ beast/antichrist will be thrown alive along with the false prophet into the lake of fire and sulfur  - Revelation 19:20 - And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.




29. Future – Second coming of Lord Jesus Christ destroying beast, false prophet and those with them, throwing beast and false prophet to eternal hell fire, chaining of Satan in bottomless pit for 1000 years and Global rule of Lord Jesus Christ from Jerusalem for 1000 years- Revelation 19:11- 20:6, Jude 1:15,16, Zechariah 14:3-21 , Matthew 24:29-31, Mark 13:24-27, Ezekiel 40:1-48:35, Luke 21:27, 1 Thessalonians 1:9,10




30. Future – Second Gog Magog war and Satan thrown into eternal hell fire – Revelation 20:7-10




31.Future – Final Judgement by God – Revelation 20:11-15




32. Future – God’s future eternity - God is creating New Heavens, New Earth and New Jerusalem for all those who will trust in him and it shall remain forever – Revelation 21:1- 22:21, Isaiah 66:22-24




God’s prophetic calendar for discerning the signs of times


Israel’s First Captivity in Egypt and return to the promised land on the 14th day of Nisan, Passover (Exodus 12:40) exactly 430 years after the Lord made a covenant with Abraham (Genesis 22:16-18). God prophesied that Abraham’s descendants would be in affliction and bondage for precisely 430 years. The 430 year period spoken in begins when the Abrahamic covenant was ‘confirmed (Gal 3:17, Genesis 22: 16-18) by God after God saw Abraham was willing to obey God and sacrifice his Son- Issac (Abraham was 160 years and Issac was 30 years when this event took place – contrary to the popular notion that Issac was a kid/teenager when this happened) , more importantly this confirmation of covenant by God points to Lord Jesus Christ through whom all nations will be blessed(Genesis 22:18, Galatians 3:16,17).


“Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years. And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years,even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the Lord went out from the land of Egypt” (Exodus 12:40-41). On Passover, 430 years later, the captivity ended. The Apostle Paul confirmed that the captivity lasted precisely 430 years (Galatians 3:17).


Israel’s Second Captivity and Return When many of the kings of Judah began to rebel against God,numerous people turned to idol worship and pagan gods despite God’s warnings through His prophets. The 10 northern tribes of Israel were conquered by the Assyrians in 721 B.C.E. (2 Kings17:6).


Then, Jeremiah prophesied that the Kingdom of Judah would also be removed for precisely 70 years from the Promised Land beginning in 606 B.C.E. because of their sins. “And this whole land shall be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years” (Jeremiah25:11). Precisely 70 years later on the first day of Nisan, 536B.C.E. King Cyrus of Persia released the Jews, just as Jeremiah had prophesied. Despite the royal permission, only a small remnant of the Jews left Babylon and returned to Israel. The vast majority never returned, choosing rather to reside in the nation of their captivity.

God gives Ezekiel 430 year (390+ 40) prophecy in Ezekiel 4:3-6, which got multiplied by 7 times as God said in Leveticus 26:18, 21, 23-24, 27-28.


The Third and Worldwide Captivity The Bible contains numerous prophecies of a final return of the exiles to the Promised Land in the “last days.” In light of the precision of the prophecies about the duration of the earlier captivities, it seemed probable that God must have revealed to his prophets when the Jews would return from their final captivity to establish their nation.


The prophet Ezekiel was given a vision concerning the final return of his people. “This shall be a sign to the house of Israel. Lie thou also upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it:according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon it thou shalt bear their iniquity. For I have laid upon thee the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days,three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel. And when thou hast accomplished them, lie again on thy right side, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: I have appointed thee each day for a year” (Ezekiel 4:3-6). Thus Israel would be punished for 430 years (390 years and 40 years).

At the end of the 70 years of prophesied captivity in Babylon, in Nisan 536 B.C.E., only a small remnant of the house of Judah returned to Jerusalem to fulfill the prophecy. The vast majority of the Jews ( note just of tribe of Judah, but Benjamin and other 10 northern tribes who were led into captivity by Assyrians earlier where also living in Assyria and its surrounding areas under the Persian empire) remained in the Persian Empire in exile. Therefore, when we deduct the 70 years in Babylon that ended in Nisan 536 B.C.E. from Ezekiel’s 430 years of punishment, Israel still had 360 years of further captivity due following the end ofthe Babylonian Captivity. Despite the precision of Ezekiel’s prophecy there was no return to the land, either 430 years or 360 years after 536 B.C.E.

The solution to this mystery is found in Leviticus 26. The Lord established promises and punishments for Israel based on her obedience and her disobedience. God told Israel four times in this passage that if, after being punished for her sins, they still would not repent, the punishments previously specified would be multiplied by seven (the number of completion). “And if ye will not yet for all this hearken unto me, then I will punish you seven times more for your sins” (Leviticus 26:18; also Leviticus 26:21, 23-24, 27-28).

In other words, if the Israelites did not repent, the punishment previously promised (360 years)would be multiplied seven times (360 years x 7 = 2,520 biblical years) to reach a total of 2,520 years. Therefore, as of 536B.C.E., the final restoration to the Holy Land would occur only after 2,520 biblical years.

The prophetic year of book of Daniel also confirms this fact by describing one-half of the 70th week ( Daniel 9:24-27 ) as containing exactly 1,260 days ( 3.5 x 360days ). Sir Robert Anderson, the brilliant head of Scotland Yard in 1895, described the 360-day year in his book The Coming Prince. The Calculation The Babylonian captivity ended in the spring of 536 B.C.E., 1stNisan. This date is the starting point for our calculations. The period of worldwide captivity would last 2,520 biblical years x360 days = 907,200 days. Converting this figure into our calendar year we divide the 907,200 days by 365.25 to reach a total of 2,483.8 calendar years. ( Remember that there is no year "zero" between 1 B.C and 1 AD ).

The end of Israel’s worldwide captivity would occur after a total of 2,483.8years had elapsed from the end of the Babylonian Captivity in the spring of 536 B.C.E.End of Babylonian Captivity: Spring 536 B.C.E. + the duration of Worldwide Captivity: 2,483.8 Calendar Years = When the Worldwide Captivity would end: Spring 1948. The Rebirth of Israel: May 14th 1948 On May 14, 1948, the Jewish people proclaimed the independence of Israel and the end of their worldwide captivity at the precise time prophesied by the prophet Ezekiel. On this very day a united Israel took its place as a sovereign, independent state among the nations.

If 516 BC is taken (destruction of City and Temple of Jerusalem by Babylonians occurred in 586 BC, and after 70 years temple was rebuilt) ,then adding 360 × 7 =2520 year (360 day year) we will reach spring of 1967 June 5-10 – the 6 Day war, when Israel retook possession of Jerusalem city for first time after 70 AD.



God gives Daniel 70 Weeks Prophecy ( Daniel 9:24-27) –

Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy Place .
— Daniel 9:24

Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
— Daniel 9:25

The commandment to restore and build Jerusalem was given by Artaxerxes Longimanus on March 14, 445 B.C. (The emphasis in the verse on “the street” and “the wall” was to avoid confusion with other earlier mandates confined to rebuilding the Temple.)
During the ministry of Jesus Christ there were several occasions in which the people attempted to promote Him as king, but He carefully avoided it: “Mine hour is not yet come”.


The Triumphal Entry

Then, one day, He meticulously arranges it. On this particular day he rode into the city of Jerusalem riding on a donkey, deliberately fulfilling a prophecy by Zechariah that the Messiah would present Himself as king in just that way:

Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.
— Zechariah 9:9

Whenever we might easily miss the significance of what was going on, the Pharisees come to our rescue. They felt that the overzealous crowd was blaspheming, proclaiming Jesus as the Messiah the King. However, Jesus endorsed it!

I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out. – Luke 19:40.
This is the only occasion that Jesus presented Himself as King. It occurred on April 6, 32 A.D.-
Luke 3:1: Tiberias appointed in A.D. 14; 15th year, A.D. 29; the 4th Passover occurred in A.D. 32.

69 weeks of 360-day years totals 173,880 days.
When we examine the period between March 14, 445 B.C. and April 6, 32 A.D., and correct for leap years, we discover that it is 173,880 days exactly, to the very day!


The Interval (Dan 9:26)

There appears to be a gap between the 69th week (verse 25) and the 70th week (verse 27):

And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.

— Daniel 9:26

The sixty-two “weeks” follow the initial seven, so verse 26 deals with events after 69th week, but before the 70th. These events include the Messiah being killed and the city and sanctuary being destroyed.

As Jesus approached the city on the donkey, He also predicted the destruction of Jerusalem:

For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side, And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.

— Luke 19:43–44

The Messiah was, of course, executed at the Crucifixion…”but not for Himself.”

The city and the sanctuary were destroyed 38 years later when the Roman legions under Titus Vespasian leveled the city of Jerusalem in A.D. 70, precisely as Daniel and Lord Jesus Christ had predicted. In fact, as one carefully examines Jesus’ specific words, it appears that He held them accountable to know this astonishing prophecy in Daniel 9! “Because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.”


The 70th Week

There is a remaining seven-year period to be fulfilled. This period is the most documented period in the entire Bible. The Book of Revelation, Chapters 6 through 19, is essentially a detailing of that climactic period.
The interval between the 69th and 70th week continues, but it is increasingly apparent that it may soon be over.



God’s Revelation of 1 Day = 1000 years from 2 Peter 3:8 (Apostle Peter ) and Psalms 90:4 (Prayer of Man of God – Moses ) and 2 day prophecy of Hosea 6:2

In 2 Peter 3:8 (KJV) But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. – Also in Psalms 90:4 – Prayer of Man of God – Moses.

So taking 701 BC as this event when God changed 10 ° backward on King Ahaz’s dial as sign for King Hezekiah’s healing, backwards until the point of 6 day Re- Creation by God are 360 day years – which from Bible chronology we get as 4006 BC. But taking this as 365.24219 day year as it is now we get 3959 BC as the creation year, and so 6000 years 6 days will be completed in 2041 AD . Since timings may not be accurate any dates from 2039 to 2042 are possible.

Hosea 5:14-6:3 shows 2 days = 2000 days from AD70 or 69 or 68 (possible dates of Destruction of Jerusalem ).
So if 2 days are taken as 2000 years of 360 days each as other Old Testament prophecies of Daniel 70 weeks (Daniel 9:24-27) and Ezekiel 430 year ( Ezekiel 4:3-6 , which was multiplied 7 times according to Leviticus 26:18,21,23,24,27,28) then we arrive at 2041 as the possible date of Lord Jesus Christ coming to take His Church.

Since timings may not be accurate, particularly with regards to destruction of Jerusalem which is said to have taken place either in 68,69 or 70 AD, any dates from 2039 to 2042 are possible.

Also in the coming millenial rule of Lord Jesus Christ year length could be 360 days making 360000 days instead of 365242.19 days if the changed year length is taken.

This extra 5242.19 days may account for the below given 5 events that comes after the pre-tribulation rapture of God’s Assembly excluding the 1000 year rule of Lord Jesus Christ . Note that the millenial (1000 year) rule of Lord Jesus Christ doesn’t come to an end at 1000 years – note that satan and the people whom he decieved (gog and magog) where destroyed by fire from heaven when they surrounded the camp of saints and the beloved city and thus God’s eternal kingdom continues forever in the New Jerusalem , New Heaven and New Earth : –

1. The possible gap period between Rapture and the 7 -360 day year tribulation ( delusion and wrath period) ,

2. 7 year – 7 × 360 day year tribulation ( delusion and wrath period

3.Possible time between Lord Jesus Christ destroying beast and false prophet and those with them and chaining of satan for 1000 years and setting up of God’s Eternal Kingdom .

4.Time of 2nd gog magog war when satan is set loose after 1000 years

5.The final judgement of God.

Thus 7 days of God ( 7000× 365.24219 days) will be over and from the 8th day onwards New Eternity of New Jerusalem , New Heaven and New Earth shall begin for all who will trust in Lord Jesus Christ.




High Sabbaths (appointed times/feast days of Israel) fulfilled by Lord Jesus Christ in greater detail

Few people are aware of the eight festivals God reveals in the Bible. Even fewer are aware that they center around and teach us a great deal about Jesus Christ and His role in God’s plan for all mankind.
“The feasts of the LORD, which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, these are My feasts” (Leviticus 23:2). Sounds impressive, doesn’t it? God Almighty saying in Scripture, “These are My Feasts.”

Yet for most of traditional Christianity, these “feasts of the LORD” are thought to have been kept only by the Jews and are deemed meaningless for Christians. New religious holidays have been substituted that supposedly center on Jesus Christ.

How did all this come to be? What is the true meaning of these “feasts of the LORD”? Do they have anything to do with Jesus Christ, or is their symbolism limited only to long-ago events? If we truly want to find the answers in the manner God instructs us, then we should follow the advice He inspired: “Test all things; hold fast what is good” (1 Thessalonians 5:21).

The Bible gives us a good example of how to examine a belief to see if it is correct. When the apostle Paul traveled to Berea, he taught the Bereans certain things that must have been surprising to them. But they didn’t close their minds or reject them. Instead, they were willing to give them a fair hearing by carefully examining the Scriptures. What was the result? We read in Acts 17:11-12 that these men and women “were more fair-minded than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness, and searched the Scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so. Therefore many of them believed …”

So in examining the feasts of the Bible, will we give them a fair hearing as well? Do the Scriptures reveal whether these feasts teach us important truths about Jesus Christ?

1. The Passover: A Christ-centered feast?

The Passover is the first of God’s annual feast days mentioned in Scripture. It commemorates the greatest event in the people of Israel’s history—their miraculous liberation from Egypt. The second book of the Bible, Exodus, is dedicated to narrating this history. Observant Jews have been celebrating this feast for more than 3,400 years.

But is this feast only to celebrate the Israelites’ departure from Egypt? Does the New Testament have anything to say about the occasion?
When John the Baptist saw Jesus Christ coming to the Jordan River to be baptized, he exclaimed, “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!” (John 1:29).

In the Bible the lamb is a symbol of the Passover because a lamb was slain at the beginning of the Passover and eaten that night. The Israelites knew the blood of the lamb had protected them from the death of their firstborn on that first Passover night they kept in Egypt (Exodus 12:12-13).

In the New Testament, the Gospels record that Christ kept the Passover with His disciples several times. On the night before His death, Jesus knew He was fulfilling the symbolism of the Passover lamb in voluntarily giving His life for the sins of the entire world.
Notice Luke 22:14-16: “When the hour had come, He sat down, and the twelve apostles with Him. Then He said to them, ‘With fervent desire I have desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer; for I say to you, I will no longer eat of it until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.’“

Jesus then instituted the new symbols that represented not the sacrifice of a lamb, but His far greater sacrifice (Holy Communion / Qurbana / Eucharist). In fact Holy Communion / Qurbana / Eucharist were started under the priestly order of Melchizedek , when Melchizedek blesses Abram by giving bread and wine after his war victory ( Genesis 14:17-20 , Psalms110:4 ).

In Hebrews chapter 7 priestly order of Melchizedek is clearly depicted , Hebrews 7 is as follows – 1This Melchizedek was king of Salem and priest of God Most High. He met Abraham returning from the defeat of the kings and blessed him, 2and Abraham gave him a tenth of everything. First, his name means “king of righteousness”; then also, “king of Salem” means “king of peace.” 3Without father or mother, without genealogy, without beginning of days or end of life, like the Son of God he remains a priest forever.
4Just think how great he was: Even the patriarch Abraham gave him a tenth of the plunder!

5Now the law requires the descendants of Levi who become priests to collect a tenth from the people—that is, their brothers—even though their brothers are descended from Abraham. 6This man, however, did not trace his descent from Levi, yet he collected a tenth from Abraham and blessed him who had the promises.
7And without doubt the lesser person is blessed by the greater. 8In the one case, the tenth is collected by men who die; but in the other case, by him who is declared to be living. 9One might even say that Levi, who collects the tenth, paid the tenth through Abraham, 10because when Melchizedek met Abraham, Levi was still in the body of his ancestor.

11If perfection could have been attained through the Levitical priesthood (for on the basis of it the law was given to the people), why was there still need for another priest to come—one in the order of Melchizedek, not in the order of Aaron? 12For when there is a change of the priesthood, there must also be a change of the law. 13He of whom these things are said belonged to a different tribe, and no one from that tribe has ever served at the altar. 14For it is clear that our Lord descended from Judah, and in regard to that tribe Moses said nothing about priests.

15And what we have said is even more clear if another priest like Melchizedek appears, 16one who has become a priest not on the basis of a regulation as to his ancestry but on the basis of the power of an indestructible life. 17For it is declared:
“You are a priest forever,
in the order of Melchizedek.”
18The former regulation is set aside because it was weak and useless 19(for the law made nothing perfect), and a better hope is introduced, by which we draw near to God.
20And it was not without an oath! Others became priests without any oath, 21but he became a priest with an oath when God said to him:
“The Lord has sworn
and will not change his mind:
‘You are a priest forever.’ “

22Because of this oath, Jesus has become the guarantee of a better covenant.
23Now there have been many of those priests, since death prevented them from continuing in office; 24but because Jesus lives forever, he has a permanent priesthood. 25Therefore he is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them.
26Such a high priest meets our need—one who is holy, blameless, pure, set apart from sinners, exalted above the heavens.

27Unlike the other high priests, he does not need to offer sacrifices day after day, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people. He sacrificed for their sins once for all when he offered himself. 28For the law appoints as high priests men who are weak; but the oath, which came after the law, appointed the Son, who has been made perfect forever.

The Passover symbols would now represent Christ’s complete sacrifice—the unleavened bread representing His sinless body that was beaten for us, and a sip of wine signifying the lifeblood He would shed to wash away our sins.

From then on, this feast took on a much greater new meaning to the Church. Instead of being abolished, this feast now revealed its true, ultimate meaning. The disciples now realized the Passover lamb was only the physical forerunner of that perfect sacrifice which was Jesus Christ. Now they would keep this feast with far greater significance and comprehension.

Some 25 years after Christ’s death, the apostle Paul instructed the Corinthian congregation—composed of believing Jews and gentiles alike—about the Passover: “Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us” (1 Corinthians 5:7).

Paul understood this ancient feast of the Passover had now revealed its true meaning with Christ’s sacrifice. It was part of God’s plan for all of mankind that Jesus would come and sacrifice Himself for the sins of the world—and the Passover anticipated it.

So, far from being obsolete, the Passover was revealed to have a vastly important meaning for Christians, with Jesus Christ being at its very center.

The apostle Paul explained this new understanding of the Passover to the Corinthian brethren when he instructed them on how to observe it: “For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed [Passover night] took bread; and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, ‘Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me.’
“In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, ‘This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.’ For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death till He comes” (1 Corinthians 11:23-26).

So in the New Testament, the Passover becomes an annual reminder and symbol of Christ’s sacrifice for all of us.
God’s feasts reveal the future.

The apostle Paul clearly understood that these biblical feasts were harbingers of what was to come in God’s master plan of salvation. In a passage frequently misunderstood by many, Paul shows these feasts of the Lord were “shadows” of things to come—not of things that have already happened.

He warned the brethren not to be intimidated by some who were questioning their manner of keeping God’s feasts, as well as the Sabbaths, new moons, and eating and drinking. He said, “So let no one judge [criticize or condemn] you in food or in drink, or regarding a festival or a new moon or sabbaths, which are a shadow of things to come . . . Let no one cheat you of your reward …” ( Colossians 2:16-18).

Paul was combating a group of false teachers who were introducing several strange doctrines, including worshiping angels (verse 18) and abstaining from wholesome food and drink (verse 21). He told the brethren to ignore them and continue observing what he had taught (and he certainly taught keeping the Passover, as we have seen). Regrettably, the Colossian brethren had been confused by these false intruders who tried to judge Colossian brethren as said in Colossians 2:16-21 16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holy day, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:
17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.

18 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,

19 And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.

20 Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances,

21 (Touch not; taste not; handle not;

So Paul mentions how important they are, as foreshadowing coming events in God’s plan for mankind. These events have not been completely accomplished so far, and many are still in the future.

Even the Passover’s symbolism was not completely fulfilled with Christ’s sacrificial death. Jesus Himself said He will again take the Passover with all the believers in God’s Kingdom (Mark 14:24-25; Luke 22:15-16)—an act that represents the ultimate triumph of His sacrifice when all believers join Him in His Kingdom.

2. The Days of Unleavened Bread: Is Christ at the center?

What about the Days of Unleavened Bread? Are they obsolete, solely an Old Testament symbol? Or are they also glorious shadows of things to come?

In the Old Testament, the Days of Unleavened Bread were understood to be a memorial of what occurred after the Passover night, when all the Egyptian firstborn died.
The next morning the Israelites packed their belongings and traveled to a nearby gathering place, ready for departure. That evening, they left Egypt by night. “It is a night of solemn observance to the LORD for bringing them out of the land of Egypt” (Exodus 12:42).

Before that evening, one last thing occurred: “And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough which they had brought out of Egypt; for it was not leavened, because they were driven out of Egypt and could not wait, nor had they prepared provisions for themselves” (verse 39).
This feast of the Lord is clearly spelled out in Leviticus 23:6: “And on the fifteenth day of the same month [as Passover] is the Feast of Unleavened Bread to the LORD; seven days you must eat unleavened bread.”
What does this feast have to do with Christ? What does it teach us about Him?

Unleavened bread—bread made without leaven—is mentioned in the Bible as something pure and unpolluted. All the grain sacrifices to be burned were to be made without leaven. “No grain offering which you bring to the LORD shall be made with leaven, for you shall burn no leaven nor any honey in any offering to the LORD made by fire” (Leviticus 2:11).

In the New Testament, the apostle Paul explains the spiritual symbolism of unleavened bread. Rebuking the Church members in Corinth for their acceptance of sin, he tells them: “Your glorying is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump? Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us” (1 Corinthians 5:6-7).

Yes, as Paul states, it is the sacrifice of Jesus Christ that removes our sins, and so we become “unleavened” in a spiritual sense. So, again, Jesus Christ is the focus of this feast of the Lord. The shadow of this feast points to what Jesus would do for all of us in cleansing us of sin and helping us to live sin-free lives.

Paul told the Corinthian brethren that they should continue to keep this feast that followed the Passover. “Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth” (verse 8).
We see, then, that the spiritual meaning of the Days of Unleavened Bread was revealed.

Its deeper significance wasn’t ultimately found in what had occurred in the Old Testament, but in Jesus Christ, the sinless one, who purged our sins and gave us a chance to be spiritually “unleavened” before God. As the apostle Jude noted, Jesus “is able to keep you from stumbling, and to present you faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy” (Jude 24).
So Jesus Christ is at the center of this second feast of the Lord, too. He makes it possible for us to be spiritually “unleavened” before God.

3. First Fruits: Is Christ at the center of this feast?

Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ , 3 days and 3 nights after his death by crucifixion is represented by the first fruits day – on this day Lord Jesus Christ presented himself before his disciples after his resurrection.

1 Corinthians 15:20-23 gives the scriptural fulfillment of festival of first fruits as our resurrected Lord Jesus Christ:-

20But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep. 21 For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man. 22 For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive. 23 But each in turn: Christ, the first fruits; then, when he comes, those who belong to him.

Christ fulfilled the feast of first fruits by being the first fruits of the resurrection. Others in the Bible (such as Lazarus and Jairus’ daughter) had been raised from the dead prior to Christ’s resurrection but they were resurrected back into their old bodies which would eventually die again. Jesus was the first to be raised into a new resurrection body, never to die again! So He is the ‘sheaf’, the first of the harvest, that is waved before the Lord in celebration and with thanksgiving.

And just as the sheaf was waved to represent the entire harvest to the left and the right, so the resurrection of Jesus was not just for Himself. He represented the many that ‘shall come from the east and the west’ (Matthew 8:11) to faith in Him and be raised from the dead as well!

As the offerings that were made on the feast of firstfruits were a sweet savor to God2, how much greater was the sweetness on the day Jesus rose from the dead? Corresponding to the fact that the crop was not kosher until the firstfruits were waved before God, so it took the resurrection of the Jesus to make us acceptable to God – Romans 4:25 ‘He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.’ Or, as Paul said: 1 Corinthians 15:17 ‘And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins.’

But thank God that death could not hold Him down! And what of the day that this was to happen? We read above that this wave offering before the Lord of the firstfruits was to occur ‘the day after the Sabbath’. This is the first day of the week – The day that Jesus rose from the dead!

4. Pentecost: Is Christ at the center of this feast?

In the Old Testament, the Feast of Pentecost is called the Feast of Weeks (Exodus 34:22). This is because Leviticus 23:15-16 mentions counting seven weeks (or Sabbaths) or “fifty days” from the day the wave sheaf was offered during the Days of Unleavened Bread. Thus the feast acquired the name of “fiftieth,” which is what Pentecost means in the Greek language of the New Testament.

In the New Testament, 50 days after Christ had been resurrected, the first Christians were celebrating Pentecost, one of the feasts of the Lord. And, as recorded in Acts 2, what a day that was! On it they received the Holy Spirit from God. Suddenly the Old Testament Feast of Weeks had taken on a new meaning for them. The shadow of this feast had now become a reality! Pentecost would become the God’s assemblies anniversary of the receiving of God’s Spirit and thus the birth/ start of God’s Assembly.

Jesus Christ revealed the significance of this feast by sending the Holy Spirit to His brethren in the faith. He had told them, “Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high” (Luke 24:49; compare John 16:7).

God’s Spirit plays a crucial role in the life of Christians today as it did then. When a person receives God’s Spirit upon repentance and baptism, that Spirit begins a process of spiritual transformation in the person’s life, a transformation the Bible calls conversion.

Through this process, we shed our own way of thinking and living and allow Jesus Christ’s attitude and way of life to guide everything we do. Paul described this life-transforming change in Galatians 2:20:
“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me” (King James Version).

Thus we see that Jesus is at the center of the Feast of Pentecost as well. Yet the ultimate fulfillment will only be realized after He returns to earth to establish God’s Kingdom, when all will have access to God’s Spirit. So this feast should still be kept as a memorial and a shadow until its purpose is completely accomplished.

5. The Feast of Trumpets: Is this a Christ-centered feast?

The next biblical feast is referred to in the Bible as the Feast of Trumpets. It is “a holy convocation commemorated with trumpet blasts” (Leviticus 23:24, NRSV). God said when the trumpets were blown, “you will be remembered before the LORD your God, and you will be saved from your enemies” (Numbers 10:9).
Is the Feast of Trumpets also a shadow of Jesus Christ and His role in things to come?

Often in the New Testament the sound of trumpets is tied to Christ’s coming in mid-heavens to take his bride God”s Assembly before the great tribulation of 7 years – Pre tribulation Rapture. Notice Paul’s description of the resurrection of the dead at the time a great trumpet announces Christ’s return: “Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed—in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed” (1 Corinthians 15:51-52).

We find this again described in 1 Thessalonians 4:16: “For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.” So Pre-Tribulation Rapture of God’s Assembly is represented by the Trumpet feast. Trumpet of Archangel will be sounded at the rapture – 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17, 2 Thessalonians 2:3-7, 1Corinthians 15:51-58.

So Christ will ultimately fulfill the symbolism behind the Feast of Trumpets. He is the center of this foreshadowing feast too.

But until the sound of the trumpet is heard, this feast is still pointing to the future, and its meaning is still to be fulfilled—with Jesus at its center.

Also some consider the Feast of Trumpets Day in 1 CE ( 3 BC ) to be the birth date of Lord Jesus Christ from astronomical data which matches the scripture account of birth date of Lord Jesus Christ in Revelation 12:1-2, The sign of the women that the Bible is referring to here is to the constellation Virgo. Revelation 12 further states that this woman was “clothed with the sun” another celestial body. The sun, as it appears to travel through the ecliptic each year, enters into the mid-body between the neck and the knees of the constellation Virgo, clothing her with the sun for approximately a 21 day period during any given year.

In the year 3 B.C. which we later show by other celestial events in the heavens to be the year of the birth of Jesus Christ, the sun was in this position from August 27th through September 15th. Revelation also declares that “the moon was under her feet and a crown of 12 stars on her head” With these three specific details, they claim to pinpoint the birth of Christ very precisely. In 3 B.C. the sun and the moon in Virgo occurred on only one day and that was September 11. Also the crown of 12 stars on the head was constellation of Leo with 9 stars that appear over head of Virgo constellation That night however Mercury, Venus and Jupiter were also in Leo making a total of 12 stars representing the 12 tribes of Israel. The configuration of the sun and the moon was visible in Israel on September 11, 3 B.C., between 6:18pm and 7:39pm. So they say Lord Jesus Christ was born on September 11, 3 B.C sometime in that eighty-one minute span of time between 6:18pm and 7:39pm.

Exactly one month before (on August 12) the world would have witnessed the close conjunction of Jupiter and Venus when they were only .07 degrees from one another when they appeared as morning stars on the eastern horizon. This was a very close union. And, after that on September 14, Jupiter – the King planet and Regulus -the King star came to their first of three conjunctions in this extraordinary year. Then, over an eight month period, Jupiter made its “crowning effect” over the King star Regulus. These celestial events might have guided the wise men from East described in Matthew 2:1-12.

Notice that first conjunction of Jupiter with Venus occurred about a month before birth of Lord Jesus Christ and that might be when they first saw the star of King of Jews / Christ – Matthew 2:2-6. And after they left Herod’s palace the star again guided them till the house in Bethlehem where Jesus was ( Matthew 2:9-12 ) So this might have been the second conjunction of Jupiter with Regulus which God used supernaturally to guide the wise men till the house in Bethlehem where Jesus was.

Also notice that this was not in the manger that Jesus was placed on the night in which he was born , when shepherds came to visit him as Angels instructed them ( Luke 2: 5-20 ), but a house in Bethlehem. At that time inns used to be places of not just stay but also giving care to the sick,wounded (Parable of Good Samaritan by Lord Jesus Christ in Luke 10: 34,35), pregnant and because there was no place in the inn, Lord Jesus Christ was placed in manger ( Luke 2:7,16 ). So after his birth on the manger Lord Jesus Christ was soon transferred to a house in Bethlehem where the wise men from East came to visit and worship him with gifts probably 2-3 days after the birth of Lord Jesus Christ on September 14 , 3 BC on the second conjunction of Jupiter with Regulus.


Luke 2:1-3 states that  And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be enrolled. And this enrollment was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.

And all went to be enrolled, every one into his own city. 

During this time Cyrenius was like a vice emperor in the  Roman orient from 12 BC TO AD 16. First such enrollment occured when  Cyrenius was ruling in Syria and other parts of Roman orient ( Note that misguided critics often cite sub- rulers of Quirinius in small areas of Syria and Middle East to escape from this reality and truth ) during the period from 8-6 BC.  2nd such enrollment occured in  from summer to early fall of 3 BC. 


Also Tertullian and Eusebius says Yahshua's birth was on  41st year of Augustus Ceaser which makes Jesus birth on 3BC. Augustus Ceaser began ruling soon after assasination of Julius ceaser in 44 BC. Augustus Ceaser (Octavian) after many power struggles got full control only in 31 BC. Again Clement of Alexandria in Egypt at about 200 AD, says birth of Yahshua occured 194 years before death of Roman Emperor Commodus in 192 AD which brings us to 3 BC.

Luke 3.1 states that John the baptist began preaching in the 15th of Tiberius reign. Tiberius started his reign on August, AD14 , thus Yahshua the Anointed One began preaching in 29 AD when he was about 30 years ( Luke 3:23 ). Also 70 weeks prophecy of Daniel points that Triumphal entry of Lord Yahshua the Anointed One on donkey with people holding palm branches on either side occured on April 6, 32 AD.Thus all these facts points to 3BC, September birth of Lord Yahshua the Anointed One, because subtracting 33.5 years from April 32 AD we reach September of 3 BC.

Also note that Angels announced Birth of  Lord Yahshua the Anointed One to Shepherds ( Luke 2:8-14 ) on the same night that Lord Yahshua the Anointed Onet was born which was on the day of Trumpets and 8 days after his birth he was circumcised and named as  Yahshua meaning God Lord is Saviour thus announcing the birth of saviour to all world – Luke 2:21 ,likewise in the rapture of God’s Assembly the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout of command in sound of Archangel and trumpet of God- 1 Thessalonians 14:16 – For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God.

6. The Day of Atonement: Is Christ involved in its meaning?

Perhaps the most unusual of the biblical feasts is the Day of Atonement. In Old Testament times, it included an elaborate ritual described in Leviticus 16. The high priest was to present two male goats, the first of which was sacrificed for the nation’s sins (verse 15). Then, after the sins of the nation were symbolically placed on the other goat, it was expelled into the desert to a life of wandering (verses 21-22).

What does the Day of Atonement reveal about Jesus Christ’s roles? Is He also at the center of this feast?

The direct outworking of purification of mankind by God through his divine judgement and wrath upon ungodly people (2nd half of the 7 year delusion and wrath period) and Second coming of Lord Jesus Christ with 10,000’s of saints and throwing alive Antichrist / Beast and False Prophet into lake of fire and sulfur and those who followed them and killing those with them with the sword that comes out of the mouth of Word of God – Lord Jesus Christ and defeat of Satan and chaining Satan and throwing him and locking him in Abyss for 1000 years as revealed in Revelation 19:11- 20:3 is represented by Atonement day.

The Bible is full of rich symbolism, and the New Testament Church quickly realized Christ in His first coming was at the center of the feasts of the Lord. Just as He was described as being “our Passover” and “the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world” (Revelation 13:8), so they came to understand that He was at the center of the Day of Atonement. How? He fulfilled the role of the male goat slain for the sins of Israel and carried outside the camp (Leviticus 16:27).

We read in Hebrews 13 about the Day of Atonement, and Christ being symbolic of the male goat and other animals slain on that day as sin offerings. “For the bodies of those animals, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned outside the camp. Therefore Jesus also, that He might sanctify the people with His own blood, suffered outside the gate [of the city of Jerusalem]” (verses 11-12).

Atonement means purification from sins, which occurred when Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins, shedding his precious sinless blood on the cross at Calvary, Jerusalem some 2000 years ago, so that all who will repent of their sins and trusts in Lord Jesus Christ will have eternal life. The outworking of this purification of mankind from sins shall be directly started by the great wrath Judgement of God that will hit all ungodly people in the 2nd half of 7 year tribulation period.

Second coming of Lord Jesus Christ with 10,000’s of saints and throwing alive Antichrist / Beast and False Prophet into lake of fire and sulfur and those who followed them and killing those with them with the sword that comes out of the mouth of Word of God – Lord Jesus Christ and defeat of Satan and chaining Satan and throwing him and locking him in Abyss for 1000 years as revealed in Revelation 19:11- 20:3 is represented by Atonement day.

Thus this direct outworking of purification of mankind by God through his divine judgement and wrath upon ungodly people and Satan who deceived them is represented by the Atonement day.

Not only does the Day of Atonement depict Christ’s sacrifice for sin and a true spiritual reconciling of the people with God, but Christ is directly involved in the symbolism of the other male goat that was cast out into the desert by a strong man (Leviticus 16:21).
The second goat, over which the sins of the Israelites were confessed, represented the instigator of those sins—none other than Satan the devil.

At Christ’s second coming, He will instruct a powerful angel to bind Satan and cast him into a place of restraint for 1,000 years, exiling him from mankind just as the live goat was exiled from the Israelite camp on the Day of Atonement. “Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, having the key to the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. He laid hold of the dragon, that serpent of old, who is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years” (Revelation 20:1-2).


Lord Yahshua the Anointed One began his public ministry probably on the Atonement Day or around that period on 32 CE in Christian Calendar or 29 AD in Gregorian calendar, because that would give 3.5 year public ministry till Passover day on AD32 when Lord Yahshua the Anointed One was crucified and after 3 days and 3 nights on the First Fruits Day of AD32 he was resurrected. This will be completed in the latter half of the coming 7 year great tribulation period and at the end of this 7 year great tribulation period Lord Yahshua the Anointed One himself shall defeat and destroy all those who rebel against him and set up God’s Eternal Kingdom first on this earth, and when this earth and heavens are burned in the final God’s judgement after 1000 years , this God’s eternal kingdom shall continue forever in the New Jerusalem, New Earth and New Heaven.


7. The Feast of Tabernacles: How is Christ the center of this feast?

Next is the biblical feast of Tabernacles. In the Old Testament, it was kept to remind the Israelites of all of God’s miraculous interventions during the 40-year period in the wilderness. “All who are native Israelites shall dwell in booths, that your generations may know that I made the children of Israel dwell in booths when I brought them out of the land of Egypt” (Leviticus 23:42-43).

What does the Feast of Tabernacles have to do with Jesus Christ? Jesus is recorded to have kept this feast in John 7:2-36. The symbol of the tabernacle in the New Testament is rich with meaning.

During Christ’s earthly ministry, the apostle John mentions that “the Word became flesh and dwelt among us” (John 1:14). The Greek term for “dwelt” here actually means that He “tabernacled” among us. Just as Jesus Christ as the Creator God of the Old Testament (John 1:1-3, 10; Hebrews 1:2; Colossians 1:16) “tabernacled” with the Israelites in the wilderness, He now did so with His people in His physical life many centuries later.

The apostle Paul says that the Israelites in the wilderness all “drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ” (1 Corinthians 10:4, New International Version).

At Christ’s second coming, He will again “tabernacle” with those who are saved. He will dwell with His people for a thousand years, and this 1,000-year rule of Jesus Christ over the earth is the ultimate fulfillment of this feast. “Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with Him a thousand years” (Revelation 20:6).

In Zechariah 14 :16-19 we see that all nations on earth will have to come to Jerusalem for worshiping Lord Jesus Christ -Yahweh Shuah the Messiah (Yahshuah The Messiah) and for feast of Tabernacles during the global millennial rule of Lord Jesus Christ from Jerusalem. If any nation doesn’t come for worshiping God and attending festival of Tabernacles in Jerusalem, they will not have rain as punishment.

So Christ is definitely at the center of this feast too—as the ruler who “tabernacles” with His people for a thousand years.

8. The Last Great Day- How is Christ the center of this feast?

Final Judgement by God and the are New Eternity of New Jerusalem, New Heaven and New Earth are represented by the Last Great Day feast which comes after 7 day tabernacle feast – Revelation 20:11- 22:21.

The Feast of Tabernacles lasted seven days. Then, on the eighth day, there followed another, separate feast day, the last of the biblical feasts (Leviticus 23:36). What does this day have to do with Jesus Christ?

The Feast of Tabernacles lasted seven days. Then, on the eighth day, there followed another, separate feast day, the last of the biblical feasts (Leviticus 23:36). What does this day have to do with Jesus Christ?

In John 7, an account of Jesus Christ’s last Feast of Tabernacles on earth, we find Jesus declaring the significance of its conclusion. “On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, ‘If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water” (John 7:37-38).

He was talking about the God’s church which began with the anointing of Holy Spirit at the Harvest/Pentecost festival some 2000 years ago and will end when Lord Jesus Christ comes to take back his church-rapture/1st resurrection as signified by feast of trumpets.

The scriptural passage Lord Jesus Christ speaks in John 7:37-38 is from Ezekiel 47:1-12 which is the river of life that flows out of the God’s House in Jerusalem in the coming millenial global rule of Lord Jesus Christ – Ezekiel 47:1-12 – And he brought me back unto the door of the house; and, behold, waters issued out from under the threshold of the house eastward, for the forefront of the house looked toward the east; and the waters came down from under, from the right side of the house, on the south of the altar.

Then brought he me out by the way of the gate northward, and led me round by the way without unto the outer gate, by the way of the gate that looketh toward the east; and, behold, there trickled forth waters on the right side.
When the man went forth eastward with the line in his hand, he measured a thousand cubits, and he caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the ankles.

Again he measured a thousand, and caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the knees. Again he measured a thousand, and caused me to pass through waters that were to the loins.
Afterward he measured a thousand; and it was a river that I could not pass through; for the waters were risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be passed through.

And he said unto me: ‘Hast thou seen this, O son of man?’ Then he led me, and caused me to return to the bank of the river.
Now when I had been brought back, behold, upon the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other.

Then said he unto me: ‘These waters issue forth toward the eastern region, and shall go down into the Arabah; and when they shall enter into the sea, into the sea of the putrid waters, the waters shall be healed.

And it shall come to pass, that every living creature wherewith it swarmeth, whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live; and there shall be a very great multitude of fish; for these waters are come thither, that all things be healed and may live whithersoever the river cometh.

And it shall come to pass, that fishers shall stand by it from En-gedi even unto En-eglaim; there shall be a place for the spreading of nets; their fish shall be after their kinds, as the fish of the Great Sea, exceeding many.
But the miry places thereof, and the marshes thereof, shall not be healed; they shall be given for salt.

And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow every tree for food, whose leaf shall not wither, neither shall the fruit thereof fail; it shall bring forth new fruit every month, because the waters thereof issue out of the sanctuary; and the fruit thereof shall be for food, and the leaf thereof for healing.’

This river of life that flows out of the God’s House during the millenial global rule of Lord Jesus Christ is pointing to the eternal river of life that flows out of God’s throne in New Jerusalem City that will come after the Millenial global rule of Lord Jesus Christ. Revelation 22 :1-5.

Revelation 22:1-5 – And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him:
And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.
And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.

In old testament except for a brief revelation in Isaiah 66:22-24-Isaiah 66:22-24 – For, as the new heavens and the new earth that I am making, Are standing before Me, An affirmation of Jehovah! So remain doth your seed and your name.

And it hath been from month to month, And from sabbath to sabbath, Come do all flesh to bow themselves before Me, Said Jehovah.

And they have gone forth, And looked on the carcases of the men Who are transgressing against me, For their worm dieth not, And their fire is not quenched, And they have been an abhorrence to all flesh! – details of the coming eternal New Jerusalem , New Heaven and New Earth is not given. It was given to Apostle John in the last book of New Testament – Revelation – Revelation 21:1- 22:21.

In Revelation 22:17 Lord Jesus Christ says- And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely. This is the river of life in the eternal New Jerusalem city and whoever washes himself by the sinless blood of Lord Jesus Christ which was shed for the remission of sins of all mankind on the cross at Calvary some Jerusalem some 2000 years ago by putting his trust / faith in Lord Jesus Christ will have access to the tree of life and river of life mentioned in Revelation 22:1-2 and 14-17 which is the real meaning of New Jerusalem / Last Great Day.

Thus we see that last great day feast that comes after the Tabernacle (Millenial ) week points to the eternity of New Jerusalem, New Heaven and New Earth that is promised to all who trust in Lord Jesus Christ.
In Revelation 22:17 Lord Jesus Christ says- And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely. This is the river of life in the eternal New Jerusalem city and whoever washes himself by the sinless blood of Lord Jesus Christ which was shed for the remission of sins of all mankind on the cross at Calvary some Jerusalem some 2000 years ago by putting his trust / faith in Lord Jesus Christ will have access to the tree of life and river of life mentioned in Revelation 22:1-2 and 14-17 which is the real meaning of New Jerusalem / Last Great Day.

During Christ’s 1,000-year reign, all of mankind will be offered God’s Spirit. And beyond that, the Bible reveals there will come a future time when Christ will judge according to their works, those who rise up in resurrection of the dead from all past ages.

In Revelation 20, we read what happens after the Millennium (pictured by the Feast of Tabernacles) is completed:
“Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away … And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books” (Revelation 20:11-12).

This period is also called the White Throne Judgment, and it is Christ who has been appointed to judge all of mankind (John 5:26-27; Romans 14:10).

So Christ will also carry out the central role of this final feast, that of carrying out the final judgement of all those who were not included in the rapture aka first ressurection.They will be judged according to their works and will be thrown to eternal lake of fire and sulfur,if their names are not written in the book of life-Revelations20:11-15. After that the New Eternity of New Jerusalem, New Heaven and New Earth also is represented by the Last Great Day feast which comes after 7 day tabernacle feast. – Revelation 21,22 chapters.

Thus, the eight feasts of the Lord are “a shadow of things to come,” and Jesus Christ is at the center of all of them. Yet He has not brought them to ultimate fulfillment; that will only occur in the coming Kingdom of God.

Yes, Christ is our Passover, He is the Unleavened Bread that purifies us, the Giver of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, the coming King whose arrival is announced by the blast of the trumpets, the one who banishes Satan for a thousand years, and who tabernacles with man as King of kings. Finally, He is to judge all mankind not included in first resurrection / rapture according to their works,before the New Heavens,New earth and New Jerusalem for all eternity. Thus, these holy feasts remind us of the central role Jesus Christ has in carrying out in the eternal salvation plan of God.

For God’s Assembly in new testament everyday is a victory festival of Lord Jesus Christ –
Colossians 2:8-23 (RKJNT) Beware, lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, which depend on the traditions of men and the rudiments of the world, and not on Christ.
For in him all the fulness of Deity dwells in bodily form.
And you are complete in him, who is the head of all rule and authority.
In him also you were circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:
Having been buried with him in baptism, you have also risen with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.

And you, being dead in your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh, he has made alive together with him, having forgiven us all transgressions;
Cancelling the bond of debt, with its legal decrees against us, which was contrary to us, and taking it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
And having disarmed rulers and authorities, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
Therefore, let no man judge you in matters of food, or drink, or regarding a festival, or a new moon, or a sabbath day:
Which are a shadow of things to come; but the reality belongs to Christ.

Let no man defraud you of your reward, delighting in self-abasement and the worship of angels, taking his stand on visions, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
And not holding fast to the Head, from whom all the body, supported and knit together by its joints and ligaments, grows with a growth that is from God.

Therefore, if you are dead with Christ to the elementary principles of the world, why, as though still living in the world, do you submit to such ordinances as,
Do not touch; do not taste; do not handle?
These all refer to things which perish with use; and are based on the commandments and doctrines of men.
These things indeed have an appearance of wisdom with their self-imposed worship, and self-abasement, and severity to the body; but are of no value in restraining the indulgence of the flesh.

So according to Collosians 2:15,16 Christ has obtained the victory by – “Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;

And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:

Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.”

So everyday is like victory festival of Lord Jesus Christ for all Christians. Since we have Lord Jesus Christ who is the body , nobody needs to judge us in keeping these festivals , shabbath etc. which are actually shadow of things to come which have and will be fulfilled in Lord Jesus Christ as we have seen in this study.

So we need to understand setting rules of men are mere vainity as clearly said in Collosians 2:20-23 – Therefore, if you are dead with Christ to the elementary principles of the world, why, as though still living in the world, do you submit to such ordinances as,

Do not touch; do not taste; do not handle?

These all refer to things which perish with use; and are based on the commandments and doctrines of men.

These things indeed have an appearance of wisdom with their self-imposed worship, and self-abasement, and severity to the body; but are of no value in restraining the indulgence of the flesh.
