Preface

After completing, Israel: The Handwriting on the World, it became time to first revisit the tetrad theory of lunar eclipses that coincide with the Feasts of the Lord. Through that study it then lead to other signs of interest such as solar eclipses, planetary conjunctions, and other signs in the heavens that were spoken of in Scripture. The results were astounding and needed to be documented because it was information missing from other presentations of this subject being popularized. The documentation that follows is taken from the web site articles and has been reassembled into this book as a follow up to Israel: The Handwriting on the World. When Mark Biltz's tetrad theory first came to light, it was about seven years ago. The prevailing thought in 2008 was that the tetrad of 2014-2015 possibly pointed to the 70th Week, or also known as the seven year Tribulation, as occurring from 2008 to 2015. This is now clearly not the case because we are not in the Tribulation and the Church is still here. Even now, the significance of the tetrad of 2014-2015 has still been somewhat of a mystery in its application as to what and when something related to Israel might occur. Previously, the tetrads had not been given much time in this authors research because there did not seem to be any direct connection to the events of Israel. The events of Israel's independence (1947-1949) preceded the tetrad of 1949-1950. Usually signs precede events. The tetrad of 1967-1968 also seemed ambiguous and not directly connected to the Six-Day-War. It was just close, but not directly on target, or so it seemed.

The theory was also ignored for the most part since it did not fit the various scenarios developed by this author that pointed to the significance of 2017. No connection of the timing stood out as being exactly significant. The fact that many of the eclipses could not even be seen from Israel (when presented as such) also did not help. Now that the eclipses are occurring, many people have begun to wonder about their validity. People wonder if there will really be a significant event concerning Israel at around this time and they may be fearing more naysaying from the mockers from even within the Church. But Gods ways are not mans ways and even this author missed the boat on the significance of the tetrads. By applying none other than the principles found in Israel: The Handwriting on the World, the significance of the tetrads would be exposed. If applied earlier, that book would have increased in size in proportion to what will follow. The beauty of all this was that once one piece of the puzzle was determined, an avalanche quickly ensued as the pieces came together and the picture became clearer leading to more discoveries. What followed then was not only discoveries about the tetrads, but also discoveries about the associated solar eclipses and planetary conjunctions. Instead of vague signs, what is occurring in the heavens today are calculated events pointing towards the coming Day of the Lord. As has been said before in the last book, there is no way this could be made up from ones own ingenuity. One problem in prophetic studies is the wide range of biblical interpretations regarding the Second Coming. Often these have changed or adjusted to fit the sign as interpreted by the theorists. It is hard for one to even keep up with the many theories being espoused today. The belief held here is in a future seven year period as defined by the 70th Week of Daniel. The Church is still present on earth as of today and awaits her Rapture or taking to


6

heaven to escape the Day of the Lord. After the Church has departed, then Israel becomes Gods way of communicating His truth to the world. In the middle of those seven years, the Antichrist commits the Abomination of Desolation in the coming rebuilt temple. Those living in Israel who heed the warnings of Christ will then flee to the wilderness for preservation. At the end of the seven years, Jesus returns to Earth. In short these writings believe in a Pre-tribulation (or Pre-70th week) Rapture that precedes a seven year period for the Jews. This is the foundation and framework. As this examination unfolds, it is believed that the data coincides with the seven years of 2017 to 2024. This was also the conclusion in Israel: The Handwriting on the World. This author is not aware when so much has been shown to coincide with this time. This analysis tries to be straightforward and consider only signs that are apparently significant. The conclusion must be cohesive and encompass all of the important points. Hopefully, fewer rocks are left unturned as this research has progressed. As we focus in on the nearness of the Lords return and study these things we must consider what to do with that knowledge. To some, this may be more speculation, but the Bible is clear that believers are not to be in the dark on the matter. By seeing the Day approach, we are to be fervently using our gifts to prepare ourselves and others for what is about to come. Even without knowing the discoveries that follow, one should be able to understand that the Day of the Lord is about here as world events match the biblical prophecies. However, God has given these signs and clues to show that His plan is unfolding now. This is all then a powerful witness to the accuracy of the Bible and the accuracy of its message. That message should be used for the purposes of salvation before the Rapture and also after when people may recollect and observe the fulfillment.

Hopefully this study conveys what God has revealed and its testimony that points to the return of the Messiah Jesus Christ. God is not willing that any should perish, but yet, many will elect to not choose the gift Jesus has provided. The choice is clear, simple, and yet profound as spoken of by Jesus himself. And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

John 3:14-17 Do you believe it? Do you trust your lifes destiny to Jesus Christ alone? Gods grace is freely given to those who believe.

Introduction Then God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and seasons, and for days and years

Genesis 1: 41 Can you bind the cluster of the Pleiades, or loose the belt of Orion? Can you bring out Mazzaroth in its season? Or can you guide the Great Bear with its cubs? Do you know the ordinances of the heavens? Can you set their dominion over the Earth?

Job 83 : 33-13

He counts the number of the stars; He calls them all by name.

Psalms 741 :4

Lift up your eyes on high, and see who has created these things, Who brings out their host by number; He calls them all by name, By the greatness of His might And the strength of His power; Not one is missing.

Isaiah 40:26 When most people look to the heavens today for inspiration, it is mostly in awe of its expanse and perhaps order. To suggest that God has also used the heavens to communicate His truth is


9

often greeted with some form of disbelief or puzzlement. However, this is the case, as is evident in the Scriptures and the history handed down to us. Right at the onset, the Bible tells us in Genesis that all of the lights in heaven were made to be signs for us and also for the use of time measurement. We later find that the stars were named by God and that it was all done according to His plan. What may seem random is not and heavenly signs are the first thing mentioned to give us an indicator when significant things in history are about to occur. But here we approach dangerous territory. This may begin to sound to many people like something akin to modern astrology, but that is not the case. What most people know as astrology today is merely a corruption of Gods original intent. Modern astrology does not do what follows in this book. Modern astrology is like a corrupt biblical theology where its read is not in line with Scriptures original intent and meaning of its words. So it is also with the heavens. God has made everything for a legitimate reason, but leave it to fallen men with the aid of Satan to corrupt and hide what was clearly written or designed. When Jesus was born there was a clear sign made in the heavens that the Magii understood. They knew the king of promise was born in Israel. There are different theories on what this may have been, but the bottom line is that God gave a sign in the heavens just like He said He would do in Genesis. This was undefiled astrology. It was then enlightened astrologybiblical astrology. Biblical astrology is consistent with the Bible. Modern astrology fits the desires and plans of people and runs contrary to Scripture. Biblical astrology examines the names of the constellations and its stars to find the message contained therein. E.W. Bullingers, The Witness of the Stars, or Joseph Seiss, The


10

Gospel in the Stars, are two such books that lay out Gods plan, as reflected in the stars, to redeem the human race. Virgo, the Virgin, is the first sign which contains stars that signify the coming promise of the Messiah. The most visible star is Spica, which means an ear of grain. The Hebrew word for this star is Zerah and is the same Hebrew word used in Genesis 3:15 meaning seed. The beta star Zavijava means the beautiful or desirable Lord. Tsemech is the gamma star and its Hebrew meaning is branch, but this word in Hebrew is only used in the Bible with reference to the Messiah. Another star, Vindemiatrix, in Chaldean means the branch who comes or the son and in the Arabic it is Al Mureddin, which means who shall come down or who shall have dominion. Virgo is a picture of the promise of the seed of the woman. This is a portion of the constellations that represent important truths in line with those of the Bible. That is biblical astrology. The fixed stars were named and tell the biblical story from Virgo the Virgin until Leo the Lion of Judah. The next important items on the list are the planets, which were also known as wandering stars. The wandering stars that are seen are Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. If we add the sun and moon, that gives us seven lights. Those seven lights also give us the names for the days of the week. The order of the week is in the following order: Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, and Saturn. Each light also has its meaning to the Hebrews. The Sun refers to holiness, the Moon to renewal, Mars to atonement or war, Mercury to a scribe, Jupiter to the Messiah, Venus to glory or splendor, and Saturn to rest. These lights of meaning then travel through the twelve constellations of the Mazzeroth or Zodiac. The keys to taking the signs of the heavens further than what is mostly available on this topic today revolved around two things. The first item was to do simple day counts from the heavenly events to the actual events that occurred in history. Patterns were then observed to show that these were not random


11

events. These patterns were then observed to occur in standard ratios of mathematics. One such ratio observed multiple times was the use of pi or known as the ratio of the circle to its diameter. This phenomenon was also observed in the previous book. These numbers may get overwhelming to the reader and may take time to process. Sometimes it takes diagramming them out to get a handle of what is going on and it is quite likely there may be more to these observations that has been overlooked even here. As more of these ratios and counts have been found, the likelihood that they are by chance is extremely small. Yet, no matter how conclusive, it will still take faith to believe that we are at the verge of a terrible time. This then gets to the elephant on the page and that is the idea of knowing the day or the hour of our Lords return. A major portion of Christians do not watch for the signs or indicators since they believe they cannot know. The texts appealed to the most are Jesus statements that no one knows the day or hour, not even the Son of Man, but the Father only (Matthew 24:36, Mark 13:32). This then seems like an open and shut case with no further inquiry needed. However, that is a mistake. In the above Gospel accounts, Jesus never referred to the Rapture. He only talks about the coming Tribulation and his Second Coming at the end. Right after describing his Second Coming he says no one knows that time. Then he mentions that the days are like the days of Noah where one is taken and one is left, but this is not the Rapture. Instead it is the separation of the wicked from the saved with the wicked being taken to where the birds are gathered for feasting on flesh (Luke 17:34-37). This is then also consistent with the Apostle Paul who is the first to reveal the mystery of the Rapture of the Church, meaning it was not revealed earlier by Christ. It is interesting that in the Gospel of Luke (Paul) that instead of mentioning not knowing the day or hour, it records the words of Jesus that the people should watch and pray that they be counted worthy to escape all of these


12

thingspre-mysterion code for the Pre-Tribulation Rapture (Luke 21:36). When Jesus gives the Olivet Discourse to his disciples, they do not know when the Second Coming will be. However, Jesus gave them the sign of Daniel, which gives the 1,260 day countdown from the Abomination of Desolation until Christs physical return to earth to set up the Millennial Kingdom The point is that Christ is speaking of not knowing the time of his return at the Second Coming at the end of the seven years, but when the Abomination of Desolation occurs, the people at that time will be held accountable to understand the time. This is why Jesus then gives the command to watch, but we as the Church are also commanded to watch in order that we might also actually know. For the Christian, we look forward to when Christ returns to receive us in the heavens to go where he is to escape the coming judgment (John 14:1-4, Isaiah 26:19-21, Luke 21:36, 1 Corinthians 15:50-54, I Thessalonians 4:16-18, Revelation 3:10). We are also commanded to watch for that coming day and we are told that if we do not watch, the Lord will come to us as a thief in the night and we will not know the day or hour (Revelation 3:3). When people say the Lord comes as a thief in the night that is only for the people in darkness (1 Thessalonians 5:4). Unfortunately, that is not the predominant understanding of these passages, though it is quite clearwe watch to know. The thief in the night picture is of the High Priest or Captain of the guard returning to see if the people on watch are watching. Jesus comes as a thief to those who are sleeping on watch and the custom was that those found sleeping had their garments taken so that they would be found naked and ashamed (Matthew 24:43, 2 Timothy 2:15, Revelation 16:15). The bottom line is that we as believers in Christ should be looking for his return. This may be a difficult thing to overcome and realize that we are to watch in order that we might know. Revelation 3:3 seems


13

pretty clear that we don't know only because we have failed to watch and see what God is showing us through His Word, His historical revelation, and the signs in the heavens. But why would not God reveal the most important time that is coming when He has warned previous generations of their coming times? Has God changed? The faithful have always been able to discern the time. A final key to the prophetic puzzle is the Feasts of the Lord. The feasts are called rehearsals for what is to come. A proper understanding of the feasts will lead to understanding that these rehearsals were fulfilled to the day and hour of the events concerning our Lords First Coming. On Palm Sunday, Jesus rode the donkey into Jerusalem on the same day the lamb was to be selected for Passover. Indeed, Jesus became our Passover Lamb and was raised from the dead on Firstfruits. Jesus then ascended to heaven 40 days later and on Passover Sunday the Holy Spirit was given to the Church. The rehearsals were fulfilled and the remaining three feasts await fulfillment on their exact days as well. Indeed, God has laid out His plan that we might know. Jesus wept over Jerusalem on Palm Sunday because Israel did not know the time and importance of that day. What will Jesus find when he returns soon on the next scheduled feast day? As we then hurdle towards the most talked about time of the Bible, it should be expected that similar signs as in the past will herald these coming events. Signs in the heavens have been given before, so it stands that they will be given again at the most critical time of human history. The Scriptures are clear that heavenly signs will occur at the time of the end. We should be looking up to what God is showing us. He is showing us right now. In our time now we have seen tetrads of lunar eclipses, solar eclipses, comets, and planetary conjunctions. Though we do not find the much talked about blood moon tetrads specifically in the Bible, their rarity and timing should lead believers to become


14

more aware of the time in which they live. To neglect what has been shown to be rare and significant in the past would be folly. The believer should be watching and discerning. And then when we are actually given a sign of the heavens laid out in the Book of Revelation itself, it is really time to pay attention. It is surprising how many have glossed over this sign and reduced it to mere symbolism. Instead it should be seen as a neon flashing sign with arrows, but it has become obscured by a traditional short-sighted understanding of that book. What follows then is a look into what the heavens are showing us. With a bit of persistence, and following previously found patterns, the significance of these events look to point to the very near future. We look to be on the verge of the Day of the Lord. From the standpoint of the stars alone, God has set another witness to this coming time. We have been warned repeatedly.

Chapter 1

The Lunar Tetrads

The first lunar eclipse of the current tetrad of 2014-2015 occurred on April 15, 2014. For those who do not know, a tetrad is four total lunar eclipses on the Feasts of Passover and Tabernacles spanning two years. April 15, 2014 was Passover, so the next eclipse is on the next Feast of Tabernacles and then it repeats. Many people have been wondering what the prophetic significance may be. Only eight tetrads have occurred since the time of Christ. The current tetrad has even captured the attention of the mainstream media. What causes people to wonder about the significance of the tetrads is for the fact that the last two tetrads came near the time Israel was reestablished in 1948 and then also the time Israel won Jerusalem in the Six-Day-War in 1967. Going further back in history, the next nearest tetrad occurred in 1493-1494 and at the time of the Spanish Inquisition. After 2015, the next tetrad is over 500 years away. The issue with the tetrads of 1949-1950 and 1967-1968 is that they are claimed to be significant to the events concerning Israel, though they did not directly coincide on the days of those events. However, are there any significant day counts between the eclipses and the events? None have been demonstrated seemingly to date by other Lunar Tetrad/Blood Moon proponents. With that in mind, let us take a closer look at the rebirth of Israel.


16

On November 29, 1947 the UN passed the Partition Plan making the way for the foundation of Israel. On May 14, 1948 Israel was declared an independent nation. War immediately ensued with its Arab neighbors for exactly 300 days until the raising of the Ink Flag on March 10, 1949 and the end of the war. This day was found to be very significant in Israel: The Handwriting on the World. However, are signs not there to show a coming event and not follow the events themselves? This had been a problem with accepting the whole tetrad theory. Not only do the eclipses not coincide, but the eclipses of 1949-1950 came after the events. Before the tetrad even began, Israel gained their independence and won the war. But maybe there is something more here than meets the eyeand usually there is. Let us look again at November 29, 1947 when the UN voted in the Partition Plan to allow for the establishment of Israel. Between this date and the first lunar eclipse of the 1949-1950 tetrad is 500 days or a duration of 501 days. This is intriguing, but there is more. When Israel gained its independence on May 14, 1948, 333 days later was this same lunar eclipse. And remember, 300 days later, the war ended on March 10, 1949--33 days before that eclipse. This is all intriguing and similar to other discoveries that have been made with regards to peculiar day counts. These day counts then provide an important pattern for the remaining tetrads that does get replicated. As we consider these day counts of 501, 333, and 33 days, it had previously been discovered that from the raising of the Ink Flag on March 10, 1949 until the end of the Six-Day-War on June 10, 1967 was exactly 6,666 days. That is 6,666 days from the end of one war to the end of another. Peculiar indeed! The time frame of the three tetrads is also 66 years from 1949 to 2015. This then brings us to the next tetrad of 1967-1968.


17

The first eclipse was on Passover of 1967 on April 24. This eclipse came exactly six weeks before the start of the Six-Day-War. From the start of the Six-Day-War until the last eclipse of the tetrad it was exactly 70 weeks or 490 days. This is also another provocative number of days between an eclipse and an event of Israel. However, there is also another interesting coincidence to this tetrad. As far as the tetrads are concerned, each period of four eclipses covers 532 days. From eclipse to eclipse it is usually 177 days. On April 1, 1969 another significant event occurred when Israel established the Jerusalem Quarter Development Company to rebuild war torn Jerusalem. April 1, 1969 was the first Passover after the completion of the 1967-1968 tetrad. If we count the days from the start of the Six-Day-War until Passover of 1969, it will equal 666 days. April 1, 1969 was also significant as it was also 62 weeks of years (434 years) from the decree given by Suleiman the Magnificent in AD 1535 to rebuild Jerusalem and those walls


18

standing today. This is like a redux of the 70 Weeks of Daniel with a twist. Seven more weeks of years (49 years) from 1969 until the last week of seven years would mean 2017s fall festivals may likely be the beginning of the 70th Week, if we are following a similar pattern of Daniel 9. So the tetrad of 1967-1968 and its 490 days seems to bear witness of this connection to the future 70th Week and completion of another 490 year cycle. It must also be noted that from the last eclipse of 1968 on Tabernacles October 6th that the Yom Kippur War started exactly five solar years later on October 6, 1973. So the tetrad of 1967-1968 links all of the significant dates of that time in an observable non-coincidental pattern. But again, none of the events occurred directly on the days of the eclipses themselves. This may be important to note as we consider the possibilities of the next tetrad that is upon us.

We then advance 47 years from the start of the last tetrad until the year of 2014. Are there or will there be any coincidences with


19

the current tetrad? The next tetrad landing on the feast days will not occur again for hundreds of years, so any further significance comes down to the one we are presently witnessing. It must be interjected here that while the tetrads demonstrate significance of a divine order, that is not to say that these are a fulfillment of Joel 2:31 or Revelation 6:12. That future event is one of a cataclysmic nature during the Tribulation. The tetrads have shown significance and it should be safe to say that there will be future significant events counting from this tetrad, but until then, we only have speculation until another pattern can be proven after the event has occurred. However, some interesting finds may be significant. In the tetrad of 1949-1950, the day counts of 501 and 333 seemed significant. If 501 days are used from the last eclipse of 2015, it will arrive on Shevat 15 (February 11) in 2017 and this is the day known as Rosh Hashanah for TreesTu BShevat. This day may become even more significant in 2017 when one considers the following concerning the meaning of the holiday with regards to the almond tree. "The almond tree has special significance for Tu B'Shevat. The word for "almond" is shakeid, which comes from a root that means to "watch" or "wake" (i.e., shakad). The almond tree is among the first trees to "awaken" from its winter sleep... We therefore eat almonds on Tu B'Shevat to celebrate the return of spring. In the Scriptures there is a play on words regarding the use of "almond" and God's "watchfulness" (i.e., faithfulness): "And the word of the LORD came to me, saying, 'Jeremiah, what do you see?' And I said, 'I see an almond branch.' Then the LORD said to me, ' You have seen well, for I am watching over my word to perform it'" (Jeremiah 1:11-12)." 1

20

Even if no event occurs on Tu B'Shevat, it is still significant in its timing. If Daniel's 70th Week does begin 40 weeks later, hopefully the watchful see what is soon coming. But even if many are still not awake, God is ultimately watchful and faithful to His own Word and will soon perform it. As Israel was partitioned 501 days before the first eclipse of 1949-1950's tetrad, a day of watchfulness comes 501 days after the last eclipse of 2014-2015's tetrad. However, there is more to this final eclipse of 2015 and the only one that can be seen from Israel. On November 3, 1878 Petah Tikva (a door of hope) was established as Israels first agricultural settlement. The shocking thing is that this day has 50,001 days between it and the last lunar eclipse of 2015. Is this purely coincidence? One should not easily dismiss this coincidence. The establishment of Israel and their return is a work of God. The eclipses are miraculously timed and spaced from such events. There is then another day stemming from this Tabernacles eclipse of 2015. As we have seen 501 or 50,001 days come into play, we have also seen 33 and 333. What about 3,333? Is it possible to find another day of significance? If we count 3,333 days from the Tabernacles eclipse of September 28, 2015 we will arrive at November 11, 2024--the anniversary of the end of World War 1. This day comes 30 days after the Day of Atonement in 2024 and is therefore Day 1290, if 2024 is the ending year of Daniel's 70th Week. There is then a final number not on the below diagram. If we count the days from 2013s 66th anniversary of the UN Partition Plan of 1947, we will find that it is then 666 days until the Tabernacles eclipse of 2015. It can also be counted as 4,000 days until Day 1290 in 2024. These are but a few examples of coincidences being found with regards to the Tetrads, but there is always more. It was also found


21

that 3,333 days back from 2015s Tabernacle eclipse came to August 14, 2006. August 14 is the anniversary day of the end of World War 2, but in 2006 it was the day that the Hezbollah-Israeli War ended. That war lasted 33 days (This find helped complete the other finds that have been found in the previous book concerning the war of 2006. All of those finds hinged off of that wars start date of July 12, 2006). Here we have the only lunar eclipse of the 2014-2015 tetrad that can be seen from Israel exactly between Israels end of their last big war and the end date of 1290 days and therefore the end of the final war. Two periods of 3,333 days then equates to 6,666 days. Those days times pi (3.14) is also the exact span of days from the first eclipse of 1949-1950s tetrad until the end of the Hezbollah-Israeli War of 2006! This similar timeline was also demonstrated in the previous book to exist between the raising of the Ink Flag, the start of the Hezbollah War, and the Day of Atonement 2024. Essentially it is an equation where the radius of the circle that is used is 3,333. (2pr) + 2r. By the way, between May 14, 2014 (66th anniversary) and the Tabernacles Eclipse of 2015 is also 501 days. The pattern of 501 repeats.


22

The patterns then seem clear at this point. The tetrads are offset at significant day count intervals from the events themselves. However, there is yet another tetrad to consider and apply the same principles found here. Even a tetrad from the time of Columbus has bearing on our time. It brings even more order to the final equation.

Chapter 2

The Tetrad of Tetrads

In the previous chapter, attention was brought to significant day counts involving Israel and the three tetrads of lunar eclipses that have occurred on the Feasts of the Lord. The tetrads of concern were 1949-1950, 1967-1968, and the current one of 2014-2015. Instead of being signs with mere relative nearness to the events, day counts demonstrated what looks to be a divine order of a precise nature. As with any discovery, there is always room for more discovery. Hence, we move to the other tetrad given significance in the blood moon narrative that occurred in 1493-1494. In 1492 Columbus discovered America for Spain, but in 1492 the Spanish Inquisition also began, which began a national purge of those unacceptable to the state religion. Concerning those from Israel, they were no longer welcome, unless they converted to Catholicism. The Spanish Inquisition also began on the 9th of Av, which is the anniversary day of both Jerusalem Temples being destroyed in 587 BC and 70 AD. Interestingly, 600 days after the start of the Inquisition was the third eclipse of the tetrad on March 22, 1494 and thus, it was also 777 days until the final eclipse of the tetrad on September 15, 1494. The day count pattern is similar to the other recent tetrads and that makes this tetrad of 1493-1494 apparently significant. Is it any wonder that


24

the Inquisition is regarded as one of the most significant moments of Jewish history of the Diaspora? The important fact was that the tetrad of 1493-1494, though remote, was also significant with regards to Israel. But was that the end of its significance? The span of time involved in a tetrad is three sets of 177 days between eclipses. This totals 531 days for the duration of the tetrad. What happens if each day is representative of one year? If we add 531 years to 1493 the resulting year is 2024. As has been demonstrated, 2024 looks to be the final seventh year that fulfills the majority of prophecy in the Bible.

Amazingly, two of the other tetrads' eclipses were also linked to November 11, 2024 by specific day counts. The first eclipse of the tetrad of 1949-1950 was exactly 6,666 x pi + 6,666 days before that date. The last eclipse of 2014-2015s tetrad is exactly 3,333 days before that very date. This date of November 11, 2024 looks to be Day 1290 spoken of by Daniel. That is 1,290 days after the mid-point of the 70th Week of Daniel. That day is 30 days after the Day of Atonement, which looks to mark the end of the


25

Tribulation. Maybe we should consider the following verse with regards to the final sign of the sun and moon: Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heaven will be shaken. Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the Earth will mourn, and they will see the the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. Matthew 24:29-30 However, there is still one other tetrad that has not been linked to 2024. The tetrad of 1967-1968 is that tetrad. The lunar eclipse that occurred on the Feast of Tabernacles 1968 occurred exactly 490 days after the Six-Day-War began, which brought to mind Daniels 70 Weeks. What is odd is that 20,000 + 490 days after this eclipse is the date of November 11, 2024. 20,490 days seemed a bit suspicious in itself, but when tied to a previous period of 490 days, it seemed highly significant especially since the 3,333 days of the current tetrad also has a significant number of days before that eclipse as well. 2006s Lebanon-Israeli War ended 3,333 days before the eclipse of September 28, 2015 and that war lasted 33 days. This can be seen in the diagram below. In the end, it looks like the tetrads are in themselves a Tetrad Quartet that points to significant events of Israel concurrent with each tetrad, but that overall, all four of the tetrads narrow in on the time that is the zenith of biblical prophecythe establishment of the Messianic Kingdom on Earth. Is this what the numbers are revealing? To this author it would seem so. Each person will have to decide the likelihood of these claims. Even for those who remain suspicious of this, it would be wise to consider the possibility that we are at the very door. Consider the matter carefully.


26

Extra note: 2006s war involving Israel began (120 x 120 - 120) days from the day Israel gained the Temple Mount on June 7, 1967. The war started 120 days before Heshvan 17, 2006, which was the anniversary day that the Flood of Noah began. That day can also be expressed as 40 360-day years from June 7, 1967. 4,000 days from Heshvan 17, 2006 comes to Heshvan 1, 2017, which looks to be 30 days after the Feast of Trumpets 2017, but 30 days before the possible start of the 70th Week of 2520 days.

Chapter 3

The Great Sign

Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a garland of twelve stars. Then being with child, she cried out in labor and in pain to give birth.

Revelation 12:1-2 Some months ago it was circulating that the first eclipse of 2014-2015s lunar tetrad demonstrated the possible start of the Tribulation. This is because the first eclipse came nearly 1,260 days before the coming appearance of a sign that looks to be the fulfillment of Revelation 12. It was concluded that this sign on September 23, 2017 was the possible mid-point of the Tribulation with the Tribulation running from April 2014 to April of 2021. This theory did not seem right since the midpoint of the seven year Tribulation should be the opposite season to allow for a fall festival conclusion of the 70th Week to fulfill the Feasts of the Lord. Further, it can be discounted now since we are not in the Tribulation and the eclipse has passed. However, the heavenly sign itself on September 23, 2017 does look to be the sign of Revelation 12. It is, therefore, time to address this sign as to how it fits the coming time of the end.


28

September 23, 2017


29

Revelation 12 comes right after the conclusion of the seventh trumpet and what is the end of the seven year tribulation. With chapter 12, we cut away from that time to a picture of the overall war of Satan upon Israel and the Messiah. The woman is Israel and the twelve stars are the twelve tribes of Israel. Paralleling Josephs dream, the moon and sun also represented his mother and father (Genesis 37:10), and as we later learn in Revelation 12, the child is the Messiah. This sign plays out in the heavens on September 23, 2017 when the sun goes down in Israel. That day is Tishri 3 and the Fast of Gedaliah. While the sign of Revelation 12 pictures Israel and the Messiah, it is still a great sign in heavena literal sign. It should be treated as a sign of major significance. The problem is that some have viewed this sign as relating to the middle of the Tribulation. The reason that is done is because of its context with the dragon (Satan) who is thrown down from heaven to persecute Israel for 1,260 days (3.5 years) until the conclusion of the 70th Week. However, this sign is broader in scope since it also refers to the birth of Jesus over 2,000 years ago. Some have even tried to say this sign played out at the time of Christs birth, but the planetary alignments put forward of that time do not match what occurs in 2017. For those who have been following this work here, there was an important discovery made eight years ago regarding the Great Pyramid and its heavenly alignment just three days earlier on September 20, 2017. It almost seems comical now that the great sign of Revelation 12 was missed at that time while focusing in on three days earlier. However, that find, along with this sign of Revelation 12, frame what seems now to become one of the most significant days in future history. That day is known as the Feast of Trumpets, Yom Teruah (the awakening blast), the Day of Shouting, the Day of the Resurrection, Coronation Day, and the Last Trump. It is believed this day is the day of the transformation of the dead and living saints at the time known as


30

the Rapture. The Feast of Trumpets or Rosh Hashanah is in the middle of these signs. The sign of Revelation 12 has many details that are common occurrences, but uncommon when all put together. The first part of the sign is the woman clothed with the sun. This happens every year, but it narrows the time down to around the autumnal equinox at this time in history. That woman is represented by Virgo--the virgin. She is clothed by the sun from mid-September to early October. September 23, 2017 meets these requirements. The next requirement is that the moon must be under the feet of Virgo. With the sun in Virgo and her feet to the east, the moon must be a few days past new moon. Since the Hebrew Calendar is lunar and the Feast of Trumpets (September 21, 2017) is on the new moon, September 23-25 places the moon in the correct position. This happens every year on the Hebrew Calendar as long as the new moon did not occur too early or too late in relation to the equinox, which would put the sun too high or low in Virgo. Here it is perfect. The requirement of the moon and sun narrows it down to a couple days in certain years. The rest of the parts of the sign must then coincide with this time if we are able to observe this sign. On September 23, 2017 there are four planets in the vicinity that complete the sign and its ultimate uniqueness. Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Jupiter play their parts. Above the head of Virgo is the constellation Leo. In Leo at this time there will be Mars, Venus, and Mercury. With Leo being a constellation of nine principle stars, the three wandering stars (planets) make it twelve at this time. Thus the garland of twelve stars is upon the woman. For three planets to be in Leo at this time with all of the other preconditions makes this rare. Combined with the final piece of the picture below is what makes this sign difficult of not nearly impossible to replicate anywhere close to the time in which we live. How rare? A search 150 years before and 150 years


31

after September 23, 2017 produced no other results 2 . Mark Chiswell searched 7,000 years of history, 6,000 back and 1,000 forward, to find only this occurrence in 2017. The final piece of the sign is Jupiter. Jupiter was known by the Jews as the planet of the Messiah. Jupiter enters the sign of Virgo on August 27, 2016, which coincides with a close conjunction of Venus. The next such close conjunction with these two brightest planets is 49 years later. Jupiter itself enters Virgo about every 12 years. The August 27, 2016 conjunction comes exactly 400 days before Yom Kippur 2017. Yom Kippur always ends Teshuvah, which is a 40 day season of repentance. Does Jupiter and Venus mark a ten-fold application needed at that time? Jupiter then spends those 400 days in Virgo. As the sign of Revelation 12 forms on September 23, 2017, Jupiter is in the womb of Virgo and is about to be born. Remember, the meaning of Tribulation refers to the period of labor pains before birth. The world is going to go through a period of delivery to result in the Messianic Kingdom. This sign speaks to those coming seven yearsthe worst in human history. However, we have been warned and God will deliver those who have put their trust in Christ by taking them to heaven before the seven years begins. For those who will miss that opportunity, Gods grace will still abound for those who change and believe that Jesus Christ is the Savior of the world, but they will have to endure the Tribulation. Jupiter, though spends more than 400 days in Virgo. It is provocative that six days before what looks to be the start of the 2520 days of the Tribulation, Venus and Jupiter make another conjunction (but not visible because of the sun) on November 13,

2 Mark Chiswell wrote emails to this author sharing his finds with regards to this sign. Mark Chiswell constructed a spread sheet to examine history and future alignments that could fit Revelation 12. http://bit.ly/1rRoKVc. He also made a video of his discoveries. http://bit.ly/1qTwrLs.

2017. This is 444 days from the conjunction of August 27, 2016. Is it any accident then that Jupiter leaves Virgo when the Tribulation will begin? The next sign in the Mazzeroth (Zodiac) is the scales of Librajudgment. It all lines up at the right time. However, let us go back from the sign of Revelation 12 to the day of the first lunar eclipse of the Tetrad of 2014-2015. The eclipse of April 15, 2014 occurred at a specific place in the heavens. As a time marker that points to the sign of Revelation 12, it should also have some significance. This eclipse on Passover 2014 occurred right next to the star of Spica in Virgo. Jesus own body was sacrificed for us on Passover. He was the Seed of the Woman. He was the ear of grain that must die that life may abound. Spica in Hebrew is Zerah meaning seedthe Seed of the Woman. It is the same word as found in the promises of Genesis. It is fitting then that this sign of the lunar eclipse points to the sign of Revelation 12, which speaks of the Messiahs birth, but also to the necessary second part of Jesus coming back to Earth. With an interval of 1260 days between the signs (inclusive count of April 15, 2014 to September 25, 2017), it would seem logical that the day count represented a leg of the Tribulation. But it cannot anymore unless one is to believe we are in the Tribulation, but we are NOT. However, this sign straight from Revelation 12 that appears in the sky from September 23 to September 25 cannot be ignored. Placing this sign in context with all of the other signs and calculations presented here, it would seem that this sign is better understood as a warning of the Tribulation that will soon begin. The conclusions in the ongoing research is that it looks like the Rapture will occur on the Feast of Trumpets 2017, which would be on September 21. That day is sandwiched between the sign involving the Great Pyramid and Revelation 12. If the Tribulation ends on the Day of Atonement 2024, then 2,520 days back from


33

that day is November 19, 2017. The sign of Revelation 12 then comes 57 days before the Tribulation. This gap matches the gap between the end of Daniels 69 weeks on Palm Sunday and the beginning of the Church on Pentecost. The sign of Revelation 12 makes sense as a sign warning to us all that the Tribulation is coming, just as depicted in the sign itself with the virgin (Israel) about to go through tribulation. For the Church, our time is then short. The requirements of the sign make it extremely rare making 2017 the only year in which it coincides with the final generation. By default, it must be a sign that precedes the Tribulation and signs should be a warning of what is soon coming. But all too often, the heavenly sign of Revelation 12 is glossed over and not looked at as an actual visible sign that can be observed. It happens in just over two years. Its time to get ready...


34

Additional Note While perusing through Jupiters position among the stars, there was something else that presented itself. On the 9th of Av 2024, Jupiter will be in the sign of Taurus. It will be between the horns. The common Hebrew name for Taurus is Shur, which can mean both coming and ruling or in other words, the coming judge. In short, Taurus represents the coming governor, Jesus Christ, with his congregation (meaning of the Pleiades, which is in Taurus). On the day known for Jewish sorrow due to the number of calamities that have fallen on this day, Mars comes into conjunction with Jupiter between the horns. Mars, in Hebrew Maadim, meaning the Adam, the Red One or the Son of Man. On this day it is believed there will be 60 days left of the Tribulation. This sign looks to speak of that time when Jesus will shortly return to end the Tribulation with the Church accompanying him.

No other signs or conjunctions after this at this time come into view. However, there will be the final signs of the stars falling from the sky, and the moon and sun being darkened. It must also be remembered here that on the 9th of Av 1994, Comet Shoemaker-Levy struck Jupiter causing much fear when the effects of such a collision were observed and then imagined upon Earth. The 9th of Av 2024 will be the 110th anniversary from the beginning of World War 1 and 30 years from Shoemaker-Levy.


35

Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: And then shall appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the Earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of Man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

Matthew 24: 29-30

Chapter 4

The Solar Eclipses

In the previous article concerning the Great Sign of Revelation 12, a 400 day connection was found to Yom Kippur 2017 via a conjunction of Venus and Jupiter on August 27, 2016. However, there is another sign to note. It is the solar eclipse of August 21, 2017. From this eclipse it is 40 days until Yom Kippur 2017, which is on September 30. Before the modern Hebrew calendar, from Elul 1 until the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) it was 40 days and known as the Season of Repentance. The Modern Hebrew Calendar gives us 39 days from Elul 1 to Yom Kippur. The total solar eclipse of August 21, 2017 essentially begins this traditional 40 day Season of Repentance. The diagram on the right depicts the moment of the eclipse of the sun at the heart of Leo next to Regulus. Thirty days later Venus will conjunct with Regulus just before the Feast of Trumpets. A total solar eclipse just before Elul 1 last occurred on August 11, 1999. The next total solar eclipse after 2017 at the time of Elul 1 is August 12, 2026. However, only the eclipse of 2017 is next to Regulus. Since the rebirth of Israel in 1948, no other total solar eclipse occurs


37

next to Regulus (star of the King) kicking off the Season of Repentance. This sign then adds to the matrix of signs at this time. One of the problems in initially including this sign was for the fact that it will not be visible in the lands of the Bible. As shown on the map below, it is largely limited to the Americas. However, the eclipses location near Regulus seems to be one of the more significant details of the sign. However, after the release of Jonathan Cahns, The Harbinger, too often the significance of America has been dismissed. America was a nation founded by Christians for religious liberty that has benefited the world

through missionary outreach. Is it not appropriate that at the close of the Church Age that this eclipse be a sign impacting the area that has been important to the Church at its end? After all, it would appear that after the Rapture of the Church, the weak or negligent

allies of Israel are judged by God in Ezekiel 38-39. For those in America, it may be an especially critical time to repent as it looks like it will be just days away from receiving judgment even before the 2,520 days of the 70th Week begins. For those alive at this present time who have not believed in the Lord Jesus Christ would do well to repent and believe in Him, otherwise they will be left behind to endure the coming Day of the Lord. The Season of Repentance is the call to repent before the Day of the Lord. Jewish tradition says those who are written in the Book of Life (the saved) will be resurrected on the Feast of Trumpets. The undecided and evil ones will then have time to repent during the time of judgment that ends at the Day of Atonement. The period of time between the Feast of Trumpets and the Day of Atonement is representative of the seven years of the Tribulation. It is fitting then that an eclipse of such


38

significance occurs at the time of the Season of Repentance. It looks to be another sign pointing towards the significance of 2017, as the time that looks to begin the seven years before Christ establishes his kingdom on Earth. In the diagram below, the periods of 444, 400, and 40 days are displayed. The period of 40 days have just been discussed. The period of 400 days provides a tenfold countdown to Yom Kippur 2017. It is also interesting that here we see the number 444. Other duplicates have also been encountered such as those with 3 and 6 in the discoveries involving the lunar tetrads. Here it is the number 4. It is even then more shocking to find the duplicates of 8. This involves another future solar eclipse.

There is another total solar eclipse on the horizon that occurs on March 20, 2015. Sandwiched between the lunar eclipses of the current tetrad, it occurs just before the religious new year begins on Nisan 1 (March 21). This eclipse will be visible in the North Atlantic (the Faroe Islands-a fishing economy) and will occur in the constellation of Pisces. Pisces speaks of the Redeemers People or us. Here there is a solar eclipse that occurs 888 days


39

before the Season of Repentance 2017. 888 is the number of our

Redeemers name in GreekJesus (). Consistent with the other patterns seen with these signs, is it not a surprise that another 88 days after the 888 will come to the day that looks to begin the count of 2,520 days? The eclipse of 2015 is also significant in that it will be seen from the North Pole as its six months of darkness ends on the Equinox. Those conditions make this a very rare event. Not only does this eclipse occur in Pisces, but as viewed from the North Pole, one would be able to see the King Star, Regulus, crossing

meridian with the solar eclipse 153 degrees away. Likewise, that makes the next solar eclipse in 2017 next to Regulus 153 degrees away as well. Yes, that is the fish number from John 21. But the rarity of this eclipse at this time and at that location bring another shocking find. A day consists of a period of light and darkness, which is usually 24 hours. However, at the North Pole, one day of light and darkness is one year. This is because it has six months of darkness and then six months of

light. Years then become days in this sense of the definition. As we count down to the period of seven years that make up the 70th Week of Daniel, it appears that those seven years begin in 2017. Here then is an interesting parallel. How many of these year for a day periods exist from Daniels Prophecy of the 70 Weeks in 539 BC until AD 2017? That time is 2,555 years, but if converted to 2,555 days, which makes seven years (7 x 365) from the perspective of the North Pole. It is then seven years until the


40

final seven years of Daniel. The solar eclipse of 2015 points to the key elements and days of 2017.3 However, that is not all with this eclipse and 2017. From March 20, 2015 it is 918 days until the Sign of Revelation 12 on September 23, 2017. That can be broken down to six periods of 153 days. This seems significant since this eclipse also occurs 153 degrees from Regulusthe star of the King. There is also another interesting number tied to the eclipse of March 20, 2015 that will be covered later that relates to 153. The year 2015 has another date of interest. Yom Kippur 2015 proves to be 2,520 exact weeks from June 7, 1967 when Israel won the Temple Mount. This can also be expressed as 49 360-day years. The original tetrad theory thought Yom Kippur 2015 may be the Tribulation endpoint. That is now impossible. However, in counting these days, Yom Kippur 2015 is an exact 700 days before Elul 1, 2017 and the Season of Repentance. What Yom Kippur 2015 may involve, if anything, is open for discussion, but it has no conclusion in some truncated version of the 70th Week. On another note, there is also another total eclipse on March 9, 2016. 490 days from this eclipse is the 17th of Tammuz 2017... Are all of these alignments an accident? The solar eclipses along with the lunar eclipses all seem to point towards the same year2017. It is that year that possesses unique signs that would appear to highlight the beginning of the seven year Tribulation. The patterns seem clear, but it still takes faith to believe. As this is being written and discovered it is also the 17th of Tammuz today (2014). How provocative. Israel has just finished one

intense week of rocket attacks with miraculously having no deaths until today. One of the final tests of the Church will probably be the Churchs handling and blessing of Israel. Will we hand off the torch properly or not? A lot depends on whether the Church rightly understands its place in Gods Plan and is watching for the Day.

Additional Note The 2017 eclipse across America at the possible close of the Church is provocative. When 9-11 occurred, it seemed as if Gods protection on this nation was being removed. The fact that the location of 9-11 was next to the church where our founding fathers prayed at after their first meeting was profoundly shown in The Harbinger. Jonathan Cahn thinks something of economic significance may occur to America on Elul 29, 2015, which is September 13th. On this day there will also be a partial solar eclipse, but not visible from the United States. However, June 7,


42

1967 has proven to have significant day counts that emanate from it. On September 11, 2017, it will be 18,360 days from June 7, 1967. This is 51 360-day years or 153 x 120 days. This has been discussed previously in the first book. That September 11th also comes up at this time may be another clue to the further demise of the United States right about the time the Church will end. According to the War in Ezekiel 38-39, the United States at that time will do nothing substantial to help Israel. However, Israel will get help from someone much better. Israel will be victorious through God alone and many in Israel will begin to see the light.

Chapter 5

The Pisces Events

It had been previously noted that the total solar eclipse on March 20, 2015 occurs 888 days before the Season of Repentance 2017 (Elul 1August 23). This eclipse is in the middle of the ongoing lunar tetrad that is occurring on the Lords Feast Days in 2014 and 2015. This solar eclipse also occurs in Pisces just before the religious new year begins on Nisan 1 (March 21). However, there is another event in the heavens that repeats the Pisces theme and follows a similar countdown. On February 22, 2015 there will be a conjunction of Mars and Venus in the constellation of Pisces. This conjunction will occur in nearly the same place as the solar eclipse of March 20th just twenty-six days earlier. The computer models to the right show the similarity. But does this event reveal another peculiar day count? From the total solar eclipse of March 20, 2015 it was found that not only was it


44

888 days until the Season of Repentance, it was then another 88 days until what looks to be the start day of Daniels 70th Week. This is because November 19, 2017 comes 2,520 days prior to the Day of Atonement 2024. If we count the days from the other Pisces event of the Mars and Venus conjunction, that day surprisingly comes 1,000 days prior to the start of the 2,520 days. Is that just another interesting coincidence? Or is it another piece of awe in a building puzzle that points to 2017? Pisces speaks of the Redeemers People. 888 is the number of our Redeemers name in GreekJesus. Then there is this conjunction of Mars (judgment) and Venus (Messianic splendor) 1,000 days before the start of the 2,520 days of the 70th Week of Daniel. Could these 1,000 days be pointing to the fact that the Day of the Lord will then begin at this time, a day that is equivalent to none other than 1,000 years? After all, the Tribulation and the reign of Messianic peace are all part of the Day of the Lord. This was viewed as the seventh day of the sabbatical week of 7,000 years. These unique day counts then focus on what looks to be the start of the 70th Week of Daniel. It is this authors conclusion that this time is not begun with a peace treaty confirmed by the Antichrist. Instead, the Abrahamic Covenant is confirmed by our Lord when He delivers Israel from the war described in Psalm 83 and Ezekiel 38-39. When God delivers Israel, their eyes will be opened and then many in Israel will be saved. The 144,000 Jewish male virgin witnesses attest to that fact. Even a broader scope of Israelites will believe and follow what our Lord has revealed to aid in their protection through the worst period of human history. It will not be until the end of the seven years that all the Israelites alive then will believe in their Messiah. With the timing of all of these events and the escalation of others, time is drawing to a close on the Church Age. In the end,


45

we should be able to have seen the end, and the heavens seem to be a factor in this. Keep looking upliterally!

Chapter 6

Jupiter and Venus

On August 18, 2014 Jupiter and Venus came within 0.3 degrees of each other in the constellation of Cancer. This author witnessed the event without being aware that it was going to occur. Sometimes getting up and out of the house early has its payoffs. Just before the sun came up, the planets were close to the horizon and it took a double take to ensure that it was not an oncoming plane. Being attuned recently to the Jupiter-Venus conjunction of 2016 meant it was time to look and see if there could possibly be a tie into the prophetic scenario. The previous study of a Jupiter-Venus conjunction was centered on August 27, 2016. This coming conjunction will have a rare separation of just 0.06 degrees. It was found that it will occur 360 days before the total solar eclipse in Leo on August 21, 2017. The day count from the August 18, 2014 conjunction until


47

the August 27, 2016 conjunction will be 740 days. Therefore, the day count from August 18, 2014 until the solar eclipse in Leo is exactly 1100 days. It will then be another 30 days until the sign of the Great Pyramid and then one more day until the Feast of Trumpets 2017. That brings the count to 1131 days, which may seem like an obscure number, or rathermaybe not. 1131 days was curious since it was similar to another number used before involving the ratio of pi (1113 divided by pi equals the length of the Lunar Year). It was found that 1131 days divided by pi (3.141592654) is equal to 360 (360.0084813). Not only is 360 the length of the year found in Bible prophecy, but it was also the time between the close conjunction of Venus and Jupiter in 2016 and the total solar eclipse in Leo in 2017. The significance of these signs was established earlier. The Cancer sign of 2014 numerically ties into the other signs and the Feast of Trumpets 2017 by pi. Was there any other significance to the conjunction of 2014? This conjunction occurred right next to the star formation known today as the Beehive. It is a mass of stars that makes sense of the name, but it was given other names in ancient times. It was called Praesepe, which means a multitude, offspring. In ancient Egypt, Cancer was known as Scarabeus., which was the sacred beetle that depicted the coming resurrection. It was also called Klaria, which meant the cattle folds. In the Arabic it was Al Sarian, which meant the one who holds or binds. The Syriac Sartano meant the same. The Greek for Cancer was Karkinos, which meant holding or encircling. The Latin Cancer means the same as the Greek. The stars of Cancer also bear the overall message of the constellation. There are 83 stars in Cancer. The brightest star Tegmine means holding. The star Acubene means sheltering or hiding place. The star Ma'alaph meaning assembled thousands. The star Al Himarein meaning the kids or lambs. The meaning

of the constellation and its stars has thus been stated by E.W. Bullinger as Messiahs redeemed possession held fast. Cancer is then a picture of Messiahs redeemed who are resurrected and then protected depicting a still future eventthe Rapture. With Cancer having 83 stars it seems striking that Psalm 83 also speaks of the hidden ones who are now protected before the war to destroy Israel begins at the onset of the Day of the Lord. In that Psalm the enemies of Israel have also plotted against those who have been delivered to safety via the resurrection. This would seem to be a clue that all is not well before the Rapture. Indeed we are witnessing that very thing escalate today in the Middle East and this should not be a surprise, if we are just a few years away from that event.

Could it be that the planets that represent the Messiah (Jupiter) and His glory (Venus, the morning star) gathered at the promise of our resurrection to protection (Cancer) signaled the actual coming Rapture in a mere 1,131 days or pi times the prophetic year of 360 days? That the most significant


49

conjunction of the same planets comes 360 days before a total solar eclipse at the start of the Season of Repentance is also beyond coincidence. It would be interesting to see when such an alignment of events would ever occur again. Even within this final generation, it is probably impossible. If God will show us signs in the heavens, and He has, then with these, we should take note and take a moment of pause.

The Jupiter and Venus Conjunction on July 1, 2015 The next conjunction of Jupiter and Venus is slated for July 1, 2015. This conjunction will be at 0.3 degrees of separation like the last one 317 days previously on August 18, 2014. This conjunction will be seen in the evening after sunset in the constellation of Leo. At first there seemed no obvious day counts of significance. However, a key factor was the use of pi, just like the previous conjunction. The day count from the conjunction of July 1, 2015 will be 814 days until the Feast of Trumpets 2017. In the previous conjunction, this end date of the Feast of Trumpets 2017 was also significant from the time of that conjunction. What was the possible significance of 814 days from July 1, 2015? 814 divided by pi equals 259 which produces no matches. 814 times pi equals 2,557, which also might seem inconclusive. However, 2,557 days is the length of seven solar years. Of course seven years is the length of the upcoming Tribulation that essentially begins with the Rapture. That is essentially, since the 70th Week of Daniel is to be 2,520 days, which looks to begin two months after the Rapture. It must be said how interesting that in both conjunctions and calculations that different years are used. First was the prophetic year of 360 days and then here there are seven solar years of 365.2422 days. It should be fairly straightforward that these


50

calculations are no accident or coincidence. It is by design. But clearly, two conjunctions involving both uses of a year and pi narrowing in on the Feast of Trumpets 2017 cannot be overlooked or dismissed as coincidental. With God, all things are possible, even aligning the planets and the stars.

The Jupiter and Venus Conjunction on October 25, 2015 With the findings of the last two conjunctions, it seemed best to press on with any others between now and 2017. Technically, there is a conjunction between Venus and Jupiter on August 4, 2015, but it has a very large separation and did not make some lists of coming conjunctions. More on that in a bit. However, on October 25, 2015 there is another conjunction with one degree of separation in the hind section of Leo with Mars nearby. Was there anything that seemed significant with this conjunction? If we count the days from this conjunction, it will be found that 666 days later is the total solar eclipse of August 21, 2017 in Leo. Continuing the count on towards the Fall Feasts of the Lord, it


51

will then be 700 days until September 23, 2017, which is the day of the Sign of Revelation 12! Two periods of day counts that are not arbitrary then coincide with other signs of importance. We must then go back to the conjunction of Jupiter and Venus that seems too far apart to be significant on August 4, 2015. If we run the time through the star programs a much closer grouping occurs between Mercury, Jupiter, and Regulus on August 7, 2015. This occurs 777 days before the Feast of Trumpets 2017, which is the first day of the seventh Hebrew month. This is interesting since from the end of the Lebanon War of 2006 (August 14, 2006) it was also 777 days until the Stock Market drop of 777 points on September 29, 2008just before the Feast of Trumpets or on them at the time, if one was in Jerusalem. That is just some more food for thought. The grouping of Mercury (Messenger or Scribe) with Jupiter (Messiah) at Regulus (King of Judah) 777 days before the Feast of Trumpets (Day of Resurrection or coronation of the King) is most remarkable. How often will a sign like this occur 777 days before the Feast of Trumpets? And this is just one sign among many pointing to this year of 2017. It all comes as one big impossible package that is in synch. Here then is the counts of 666 and 777 days. Other such numbers have appeared in the other discoveries with regards to the other conjunctions or blood moons. For example, there is also 444 and 888 days. Then there is 3,333 days. The 3,333 days repeats and also we have seen 333, 666, and 6,666 days. Some involve the same dates but use the different counts listed here. It is nothing short of amazing and demands all of these things be placed in one comprehensive diagram (in a later chapter). To do so would probably lead to other finds and conclusions that help solidify Gods unveiling plan of these last days. It is not an accident.

The Next Beehive Conjunction

Purely by chance, another conjunction was found among the Beehive of Cancer. On July 17, 2016, 40 days before the very near conjunction of Venus and Jupiter on August 27, 2016, comes this conjunction of Mercury and Venus in the constellation of Cancer. Forty days is interesting enough, but this also means that the prior conjunction of Venus and Jupiter in Cancer on August 18, 2014 was exactly 700 days earlier. 700 days was also found to exist between the October 25, 2015 conjunction of Venus and Jupiter and the apparent fulfillment of the Revelation 12 sign on September 23-25, 2017. This also means that this conjunction on July 17, 2016 is also 400 days before the solar eclipse in Leo on August 21, 2017. It seems apparent then that this conjunction in the Beehive is important in the countdown to 2017. One fascinating aspect of the previous conjunction of Jupiter and Venus in the Beehive on August 18, 2014 was that it came 1131 days before the Feast of Trumpets 2017. That number


54

divided by pi equals 360 days which not only is a certain unit of time used in the Bible, but also that the close conjunction of Venus and Jupiter on August 27, 2016 will come 360 days before the total solar eclipse in Leo on August 21, 2017. It also must be remembered that another pi number was found to have occurred before the Feast of Trumpets 2017. 814 days before that feast there is a conjunction of Venus and Jupiter on July 1, 2015. Those number of days multiplied by pi are equal to 7 solar years of 2,556 days. The key here is that pi was found in two calculations. And now with this second Beehive conjunction discovery, a third use of pi unfolds. The Beehive conjunction on July 17, 2016 completes a 700 day count from the Beehive conjunction of August 18, 2014. That first conjunction in the Beehive also comes 1100 days before the total solar eclipse in Leo on August 21, 2017. The numbers of 700 and 1100 form a half pi ratio. Pi is often represented as 22/7 in fractional form. Therefore, 2 x 1100/700 is also equal to pi. If day counts of 1100, 700, and 400 were not enough, now another similar ratio of a circle of pi is involved. Are these coincidences then as easy as pi? However, there is always more pi in this case. All of the day counts in these calculations of pi are inclusive day countsthat is to count the start and end days. Of the day counts listed above, the period of 400 days remains unchecked. By inclusive count, it is actually 401 days from the second Beehive conjunction until the total solar eclipse in Leo on August 21, 2017. If we take 401 days and multiply it by pi, we will find that it equals 1,260 days. Of course, 1,260 is the portion of each half of the seven year Tribulation, but it was also the number of days from the first eclipse of the current tetrad (April 15, 2014) until the fulfillment of the Revelation 12 sign on September 23-25, 2017. The inclusive count of 1,260 days ends at September 25th. The math and astronomy involved are one thing, but when


55

these things also line up with significant locations such as the Beehive in Cancer, it is another. These Beehive signs point to the gathering of thousands upon thousands to the sheltering placethe rooms (mansions) that have been prepared for us. Will we be protected on the day the ratio of the circle or encircling (the Greek meaning of Cancer) points us towardsthat being the Feast of Trumpets 2017? That all depends on whether we have believed and accepted the gift of God, which is salvation through Jesus the Messiah.

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

John 3:16-17 Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Fathers house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.


56

And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. And where I go you know, and the way you know. Thomas said to Him, Lord, we do not know where you are going, and how can we know the way? Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

John 14:1-6

Tetrads, Solar Eclipses, and

Conjunctions Recap

Over the past year, many peculiarities have been found that add credibility to the significance of the tetrad of blood moons and their associated solar eclipses. Even planetary conjunctions lend their support of the Last Days scenario. It is truly remarkable and beyond human ingenuity. While the sun and moon turning to darkness concurrently is reserved for the time at the end of the Tribulation of seven years, these events point ahead or back to the significant events of our era. Our appointment draws close. The Blood Moons In review, the first tetrad of blood moons of our era occurred in 1949-1950. Israel was reborn in 1948, but this rare event of blood moons on four days of the Feasts of the Lord tie into the events of Israels rebirth. Here is a list of those days and what has been found so far:

1. Passover 1949 (April 13): Comes at an interval of 500 days after the UN partition Plan for Israel 1947. It is also 333 days after Israel is made a nation on May 14, 1948. Still it is 33 days after Israel wins its 300 day war for independence with the raising of the Ink Flag on March 10, 1949. This was incredible. It is also noteworthy that


58

from the raising of the Ink Flag until the end of the Six-Day-War it was also 6,666 days. But as detailed in the previous book, an additional 6,666 days multiplied by pi will come exactly to the Day of Atonement 2024. This eclipse also comes 6,666 days times pi plus 6,666 days before another important dayDay 1290 from the middle of the 70th Week..

2. Tabernacles 1949 (October 7) 3. Passover 1950 (April 2) 4. Tabernacles 1950 (September 26)

The second tetrad of blood moons occurred from 1967 to 1968. Shortly after the first eclipse, the momentous Six-Day-War occurred. All significant events at that time hinged off of this tetrad as well. Here is the list of those days:

1. Passover 1967 (April 24) This eclipse occurred exactly 6 weeks before the Six-Day-War. 666 days after the war began, the Knesset established the JQDC to rebuild war torn Jerusalem on Passover of 1969. This also occurred 62 weeks of years after Suleiman the Magnificent decreed the rebuilding of Jerusalem and its walls in AD 1535a possible secondary application of Daniel 9.

2. Tabernacles 1967 (October 18) 3. Passover 1968 (April 13) 4. Tabernacles 1968 (October 6) This eclipse occurred 490

days after the beginning of the Six-Day War. This eclipse also occurred exactly 5 solar years before 1973s Yom Kippur War. This eclipse also comes 20,490 days before what looks to be Day 1290 on November 11, 2024.

The current set of blood moons is occurring from 2014 to 2015. Many people have wondered what this may bring next in the prophetic scenario. Here are the mathematical connections of


59

significance or potential significance:

1. Passover 2014 (April 15) This eclipse comes 1260 days before the sign of Revelation 12 on September 23-25 2017. The eclipse occurred next to the star Spicathe Seeda rare event in itself.

2. Tabernacles 2014 (October 8) 3. Passover 2015 (April 4) 4. Tabernacles (September 28) This eclipse comes 3,333

days after the end of Israels 33-day war with Hezbollah on August 14, 2006 (Anniversary of the end of WW2). This eclipse also comes at 50,001 days after the founding of Petah Tikva on November 3, 1878. In a similar vein, this eclipse comes 501 days after the 66th anniversary of Israels reestablishment on May 14, 1948. This eclipse is also 501 days before Rosh Hashanah for Trees (known as a day for watching) on February 11, 2017. The eclipse of September 28 is also 666 days after the 66th anniversary of the UN Partition Plan of November 29, 1947. 3,333 days after this eclipse will arrive at November 11, 2024, which looks to be the day of 1290 days from the 70th Week mid-point. November 11, 2024 is also 6,666 days plus 6,666 days times pi from the first blood moon of 1949. This eclipse also comes 333 days before August 27, 2016, which will be a spectacular conjunction between Venus and Jupiter. Are the tetrads significant? Absolutely. Next come the intervening total solar eclipses and then the conjunctions of Venus and Jupiter in this list.

Total Solar Eclipses These total solar eclipses occur from the start of the tetrad of blood moons until the summer of 2017.


60

1. March 20, 2015 - 888 days until the Season of Repentance 2017 with another 88 days until the possible start of the 70th Week of Daniel. This eclipse also comes 153 degrees away from the location of the August 21, 2017 eclipse. March 20, 2015 is also 918 days (153 x 6) before the Sign of Revelation 12 on September 23, 2017. This eclipse is also 969 days (think Methuselah) before the final conjunction of Jupiter and Venus on November 13, 2017. 969 is a related number to 153, which was covered in the previous book.

2. March 9, 2016 490 days until the 17th of Tammuz 2017. 3. August 21, 2017 - Two days before the Season of

Repentance 2017. 1100 days after Jupiter-Venus conjunction on August 18, 2014. 666 days after Jupiter-Venus conjunction on October 25, 2015. 401 days after Mercury-Venus conjunction in the Beehive on July 17, 2016 (1260/pi). 360 days after Jupiter-Venus conjunction on August 27, 2016.

Jupiter-Venus Conjunctions It wasnt until the first conjunction on August 18, 2014 that this was developed. Here is the sequential conjunctions of Jupiter and Venus since the start of the Tetrad of 2014-2015.

1. August 18, 2014 - Conjunction next to the Beehive in Cancer. 1100 days until total eclipse on August 21, 2017. 1131 days until the Feast of Trumpets 2017. 1131 days divided by pi equals 360 days.

2. July 1, 2015 - Conjunction occurs 814 days until Feast of Trumpets 2017. Seven solar years divided by pi equals 814 days.

3. October 25, 2015 - Conjunction occurs 666 days before solar eclipse of August 21, 2017. Conjunction occurs 700 days before Revelation 12 Sign on September 23, 2017.


61

4. August 27, 2016 - Superior conjunction occurs 360 days before solar eclipse of August 21, 2017. This conjunction occurs 333 days after the last blood moon of September 28, 2015. 444 days after this conjunction comes the next Venus-Jupiter conjunction.

5. November 13, 2017 - Last conjunction before the potential 70th Week in 6 days. 444 days after last conjunction. 777 days after the last blood moon on September 28, 2015. Interestingly it is then another 2,556 days (7 solar years) until November 11, 2024 that looks to be Day 1290. That day is 3,333 days from the last blood moon of September 28, 2015. This last conjunction is also 969 days after March 20, 2015s solar eclipse.

Mars-Venus Conjunction Another conjunction that seemed noteworthy was this conjunction on February 22, 2015. This conjunction comes 1,000 days before the possible start date of the 70th Week of Daniel on November 19, 2017. That day is 2,520 days before the Day of Atonement 2024. This conjunction occurs in nearly the same place in Pisces as the total solar eclipse a few weeks later. Jupiter-Mercury-Regulus Conjunction On August 7, 2015 there is this conjunction between Jupiter (Messiah) and Mercury (Messenger) next to Regulus (the star of the King). This event occurs 777 days before the Feast of Trumpets 2017. In an interesting similarity, 777 days before the Feast of Trumpets 2008, the war between Hezbollah and Israel had ended on August 14, 2006. Just as the Feast of Trumpets began in Israel in 2008, the stock market in the USA collapsed 777.7 points. The day before the Feast of Trumpets 2017, Venus (the Morning Star) will also be in conjunction with Regulus (the


62

star of the King). One Last Tetrad - 1493-1494 The tetrad of 1493-1494 has also come to be seen now as relative to the end. The third eclipse was 600 days after the Spanish Inquisition was enacted on July 30, 1492. The fourth eclipse was then 777 days after the enactment. The length of any tetrad is 531 days to cover all 4 eclipses. 531 years after 1493 is 2024... Numbers such as these cannot be made out of thin air. At every turn, there is coincidence. We have been warned...

Chapter 9

Gods Partition Plan

On the same day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying: To your descendants I have given this land, from the river of Egypt to the great riverthe River Euphrates.

Genesis 15:18 For behold, in those days and at that time, When I bring back the captives of Judah and Jerusalem, I will also gather all nations, And bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat; And I will enter into judgment with them there On account of My people, My heritage Israel, Whom they have scattered among the nations; They have also divided up My land.

Joel 3:1-2

On November 29, 1947 the United Nations passed the Partition Plan by a vote of 33 to 13 with 10 nations abstaining. The Plan was that when the British Mandate ended the land would be divided between Israeli and Arab. The United


64

Kingdom had until October 1, 1948 to withdraw and they did withdraw on May 14, 1948. It has now been over 67 years since the Partition Plan was passed. Recently much attention has been drawn to the tetrad of blood moons of 2014-2015, as well as the associated total solar eclipses. However, there appears to be another item of four of glaring importance. Pieces of that puzzle were shared with this author by Charles Saffell who runs the web site, JoybySurprise. What struck this author was the four total solar eclipses that came or will come near Israel in this era. The first total solar eclipse on August 11, 1999 came at the onset of the Season
