Proof Of Christ's Second Coming In The First Part Of This Century...
According To Bible Numerology
The dates set forth by the writer are questionable and could be misleading, but nevertheless we believe are close to the approximate dates when these events did in the past and will in the future occur.
1. If the readers desire to have a part in the Lord's work as soul workers, it would be great for them to begin their own tract ministry by down loading our messages and send or give copies to others. What could be more important for you as an ambassador for Christ than to support the Body of Christ in this way? The messages are already written, so why not pass them on to others? {See 2- Corinthians 5:14-21}.
2. As to the writer's belief and doctrine, we are strictly Biblical! We adhere to no denominational beliefs unless what they teach is taken from the true Word of God and taught in the correct context. We believe that we are to be busy proclaiming the truths for the present age of grace, in view of the soon coming of our Lord. We believe in ...
a. The verbal inspiration of the Word of God {2- Timothy 3:16}.
b. The Deity of Jesus Christ, and the Trinity of the Godhead ... {Titus 2:13; - & - 2- Corinthians 13:14}.
c. The total depravity of man, and everlasting punishment of those who reject Christ ... {Romans Ch. 3; John 3:36; - & - Revelation Ch. 20:15}.
d. Redemption by the blood of Christ, and by grace, not of works {Titus 3:5; - & - Ephesians 2:8-9}.
e. Everlasting life and the security of the believer ... {John 10:29}.
f. The personality and everlasting punishment of Satan ... {Job Ch. 1; - & - Revelation Ch. 20}.
g. The imminent Rapture [Resurrection] of the Body of Christ, followed by the great 7 year Tribulation Period and the literal Millennial Reign of Christ on this earth {1- Thessalonians 4:16-18; 1- Corinthians 15:50-55; - & - Revelation Ch. 20:1-6}.
3. The reader will notice that we have put words in parenthesis in the various Bible verses, this is done to help the student have a better understanding of the old King James language which is often a little bewildering to some folks who are not use to that kind of speech. Therefore, please bear with us as we teach the message.
4. A good idea would be to read your Bible along with each verse we have quoted. It is also very important, for the student to look up all the added Bible texts that we have referred to in the message. This will give the reader much added information! Another thing we should mention is that when we copy a verse from the Bible we will change much of the spelling from the archaic King James language to the modern way of spelling, such as ... "searcheth to searches, thy to your, standeth to stands, knoweth to knows, maketh to makes, nay to no, bringeth to bring or brings, hath to has or have, saith to says, doeth to does, wherefore to therefore, thee to the, justifieth to justify, helpeth to help, liveth to lives, ever to always and etc." None of this will take away from the true meaning of the original text.
5. In beginning this message, we have prepared a Chart that we feel will be of great help in the following study.
6. We should state here that the study and understanding of Biblical Numerology is a science of the number system that is visible throughout the entire structure of our Bible. Naturally this type of science is not for every one, and in fact, many ministers themselves look upon this type of study as pure nonsense. Nevertheless, there have been research books written concerning this type of science by prominent Theologians, and to ignore or ridicule this science is very unwise.
7. {2- Peter 3:8} teaches very clearly that a thousand years is as one day. The interpretation is: that the Lord looks upon a thousand years of man's time here on earth as being no more then a day to God. Time in eternity is really meaningless, but God uses "time" for man since the physical body is constructed of flesh and bone and is subject to decay from birth until death. Since mankind, after the sin of Adam and Eve, was born with an old sin nature our life in a physical body wouldn't be permitted to withstand life upon this earth longer than just under a thousand years. When God created the earth and man, He performed this creation in six 24 hour days. Perhaps the chart below will give a better idea of the thousand year day that Peter was referring to in his Epistle.
8. When the Lord talked to Adam and Eve, He told them that if they were to eat of the tree of good and evil, they would die that very same day. Scripture ...
9. "And the Lord God commanded the man saying, of every tree of the garden you may freely eat: but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, you shall not eat of it: for in the day that you eat thereof you shall surely die, {Genesis 2:16-17, K. J. V.}."
10. Anyone familiar with this story knows the outcome. First Eve and then Adam ate of the tree and this began the process of physical death that very moment, because they immediately received the old sin nature. Now it is true that neither person died physically on the 24 hour day they partook of the fruit of the tree, because after this Adam and Eve produced sons and daughters. Scripture...
11. "And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were 800 years: and he begat sons and daughters: and all the days that Adam lived were 930 years: and he died, {Genesis 5:4-5}."
12. According to {Genesis 6:29} Noah lived to the age of 950. And then we have Methuselah, Scripture ...
13. "And the days of Methuselah were 969 years; and he died, {Genesis 5:27}."
14. He did not live a whole one thousand years and he was the oldest man who ever lived. When men received the old sin nature, no one from that day onward until the 7th Millennium would live a I000 year day. Of course during the 7th Millennium this will be a different story.
15. According to Scripture, from the creation of Adam until the Second Coming of Christ, will be a 6000 year period. From Adam to Abraham was 2000 years [two days]. From Abraham to Christ's birth was another 2000 years, which represented 4 days [Millenniums] in time. The Lord Jesus Christ died on the cross of calvary in the approximate year A. D. 33, It has been another 2000 years since His birth to the year A. D. 2000.
Chart ...
Day ... 1, Garden of Eden 4000 B. C. Adam - & - Eve created. Adam 930 years old when he died, {Genesis 1; - & - 5:1-5}.
Day ... 2, Enoch, ... his life as a Prophet 3000 B.C. He was 365 years old when he was resurrected, {Genesis, 5:21-24}.
Day ... 3, Abraham, ... his life as the first Hebrew 2000 B. C. ... {Genesis 14:13; 17:1-11}.
Day ... 4, Solomon, ... Third King of Israel, Reigned 40 years, 1000 B. C. {1- Kings 11:42-43}.
Day ... 5, Birth of Christ, ... this was His first coming to the world as the Messiah, A. D. 1. He was rejected by His own people.
Day ... 6, Dark Ages, ... A. D. 1000... Much persecution of Christians and Hebrews, by the Roman Church.
Day ... 7, Resurrection of the Body of Christ and the Tribulation Period following, A. D. 2001?? onward, ... 2nd- Coming, A. D. 2008- 2018???... End of Antichrist, and the beginning of the Kingdom Reign of Christ, {Revelation 19:20; 20:10}. "White Throne Judgment of the damned!" A. D. 3000 or perhaps a very short time afterward? {Revelation 20:11-15}.
Day ... 8, End of Satan, A. D. 3000? ... Beginning of Eternity, {Revelation 20:10-15; - & - Ch. 22}.
16. The time is now almost here for the Body of Christ to be resurrected from this earth and then Christ's Second Advent. First we receive the first glimpse of the time period between Christ's first Coming and His Second Advent. We must emphasize the point that the prophet in [these verses] is speaking only to Israel as a nation. The prophecy he utters actually looks forward several hundred years into the future to A. D. 70 with regards to the invasion of Palestine by the Roman Government.
The Kingdom Of Christ On This Earth Foretold In Hosea Ch. 6 According To Biblical Numerology...
17. {V.1} Scripture, "Come and let us [Israel] return unto the Lord: for He has torn [i. e. separated us from our land], and He will heal us; [make us well as a great nation]; He has smitten [conquered and divided us], and He will bind us up [after the end of the second 1000 year day, after the birth of Christ]. ...
18. {V.2} After two days [two "one thousand year days," from His birth till His second coming], will He revive us [Israel as a nation], in the third day [after the beginning of the third 1000 year period from His birth which should be somewhere between A. D. 2008 ... and A. D. 2018???], He will raise us up [as the leading nation of the world during the 7th millennium], and we shall live in His sight [because Christ will be reigning from His throne in Jerusalem]. ...
19. {V.3} Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the Lord: His going forth is prepared as the morning; and He shall come unto us [Israel] as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth, {Hosea 6:1-3}."
[All emphasis in parenthesis in the above verses are added for a better understanding].
20. Notice that Peter, in his Second Epistle, throws considerable understanding toward the interpretation of the above verses.
21. Scripture, "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, {2- Peter 3:8}."
22. You notice that in {Hosea 6:1} the prophecy is spoken in a way to cause one to think that this prediction has been fulfilled in the past, even though he utters it hundreds of years before it is to be fulfilled. He states, "Come and let us return unto the Lord: for He has torn us." In other words to tear something is to split it apart or divide it into pieces. This prophecy actually looked forward to the year A. D. 70.
23. When Historians look back to that year, they understand how the Roman General Titus, in his invasion of Palestine, actually tore Israel apart. He completely destroyed the Hebrew Temple and about one million of the Hebrews were killed and hundreds of thousands were taken into captivity by the Romans. Many were sold into slavery, while many others were destroyed in gladiatorial combat in the Roman coliseums.
24. The point is, they were scattered throughout the entire known world, and are still scattered even to this very day. They were split, torn and divided, undoubtedly, because they had worshipped other god's and later had a chance to receive Christ as their Messiah but turned their back from Him, therefore dismissing Him as an impostor.
25. In turn, the Lord turned His back away from His own people and dismissed them by postponing their covenant inheritance for another two millenniums when they would finely receive Him as their Messiah. This is primarily what the prophet in {V.1} above was talking about, because he states: "Let us return unto the Lord for He has torn us," which is what happened in A. D. 70, when the Hebrews were torn from their land and separated from it. The Verse goes on to say: "He [God] has smitten and He will bind us up." At the Second Coming He will bind and return them to their rightful inheritance as a nation.
26. {V.2} Above states ... "After two days [2000 years] will He revive us."
27. This means that 2000 years after the birth of Christ, He will return and bring all the Israelites back to their promised land from wherever they may be living upon this earth. This will be the fulfillment of the prophecy of "Dry Bones" foretold in the book of {Ezekiel Ch. 37}. Scripture...
28. "In the third day [beginning of the third thousand year after Christ's birth] He will raise us up and we shall live in His sight." [During this century the Lord has already began His gathering of the Hebrews to their promised land].
29. The 7th Day that God rested after His Creation is a type of the 7th Millennial day of man upon this earth. Christ will return somewhere around A. D. 2001 or shortly after and He will Resurrect the Body of Christ. We do not believe that this is just somebody's guess. The Scriptures are very clear concerning the various time periods. Naturally, the translation of the Body of Christ from this earth will take place at least 7 years or perhaps a little more before the Lord's Second Coming. {Revelation Ch. 20} states that the people who are saved during the Tribulation Period portrayed in {Revelation Ch. 7}, will reign upon this earth with Christ for a thousand years. This includes both Hebrews and Gentiles alike, but only the Hebrews will become Priests of God during the 7th Millennium {see Isaiah 61:6; - & - Revelation 7: 9-13}. Scripture ...
30. "... And they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years {Revelation 20:4}." "Blessed and Holy is he that has part in the first resurrection; on such the second death [Hell] has no power, but; they shall be priest of God and of Christ [Jehovah of Hosts], and shall reign with Him a thousand years {Revelation 20:6}." [Concerning Israel's Millennial Priesthood]: see {Exodus 40:15; - & - Isaiah 61:6}.
31. This thousand years will be a day of rest, because Satan will not be upon the earth nor will he be anywhere in the heavens.
32. {V.1} Scripture, "And I [John] saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key to the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.
33. {V.2} And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,
34. {V.3} And cast him into the bottomless pit [Abyss], and shut him up, and set a seal upon {sealed it over] him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season, {Revelation 20:1- 3}." Scripture ...
35. {V.18}" But be you glad and rejoice forever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy. {V.19} And I [Messiah] will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in My people [The Hebrews]: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying. {V.20} There shall be no more an infant of days, nor an old man that has not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed, {Isaiah 65:18-20}
36. During that 1000 years, Israel will be the leading nation of the world. The child will not be accountable for his sins until he reaches the age of one hundred even though he will be born with an old sin nature. After he reaches the hundredth birthday, if he still will not receive Christ, who is at that time reigning personally on His throne in Israel as his Messiah and Lord, he will then be accursed and die a lost sinner. Those who become Christians at any time during the millennium will live on through the rest of the 1000 years.
37. {V.2} Scripture, "... For as the days of a tree are the days of My people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the works of their hands, {Isaiah 65:22}." "... And we [Israel] shall live in His sight {Hosea 6:2}, [because as we have already pointed out Christ will at that time be reigning in Israel and]: "Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the Lord: His going forth is prepared as the morning: and He shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain into the earth, {Hosea 6:3}."
38. What a wonderful day that is going to be. Jesus will be King of Kings over the whole earth. He is Israel's King! Concerning Christians today, Christ is the Head of the whole Body of Christ. Notice that the text states, "After two days will He revive us, [Israel]." They have been refugees in the world's nations without a land or home of their own but after the 2000 years from Christ's birth, the Body of Christ will be completed and called up into Heaven. Then the Lord will bring all the Hebrews back to Israel according to their former status and will fulfill His Ancient Covenants with them. In the Third Day, "in the first part of this very century on till A. D. 3000," ... they "will live in His sight."
39. While man's view is divergent on the subject, most all agree that we cannot know the precise time of the coming of Christ. On the other hand, the Second Coming must be studied according to Bible Numerology. This, the student should realize, is a part of Bible Science that can be helpful for any Bible student. Also a study of days yields important knowledge concerning the various dispensations, [time periods].
40. It should be noted that the Garden of Eden event with Adam, Eve and the serpent took place in 4000 B. C. It is from this fact that we are using the chart above. Notice that it is 4000 years from Adam's creation to the birth of Christ. The chart indicates that it will be 2000 years from the birth of Christ to His Second Coming.
41. Notice also on the chart "Antichrist is on the scene around A.D. 2001 or there about." This indicates that the Lord will return and put an end to the Tribulation Period and the Antichrist at His 2nd Coming. [We believe that the World Leader, the Antichrist is right now at this very time setting somewhere on the sidelines preparing himself to take over the one World Government, the New World Order and the One World Church System, and to rule and reign supreme over the earth throughout the Tribulation Period. Time is short for humanity to prepare themselves for what is close at hand to take place].
42. We believe as our chart indicates, that the 7th Day will began officially in 2001 A. D. then the Resurrection of the Body of Christ a short time afterward, and then the beginning of the 7 year Tribulation Period. At the end of the 7 years, the Battle of Armageddon will take place at the time of Christ's Return and Jesus will cast Satan into the Pit of Hell. Christ will then cast the Antichrist and the False prophet into the Lake of Fire! This 7th Day will be of a 1000 year duration usually called the Millennium. When the 1000 years are at an end, the Devil will be released from the Pit, but only for a short season. {See Revelation 20:1-3; 7-10}.
43. This 1000 year period, including the 7 year Tribulation Period, is referred to as: The Day of the Lord {Joel 2:1} or as the Lord's Day. Revelation 1:10}. Sunday, in this age, is recognized as the Lord's Day for the Christian. But we are not talking here about a 24 hour day but about a 1000 year day.
44. On the chart beginning with the Tribulation Period shortly after the end of day- 6, notice that Day 7 ends with the Devil being cast into the Lake of Fire to stay there for the rest of eternity [see Greek text]. Day 7 will be the Lord's Day as is shown on our chart. It concerns the Millennial Reign of Christ when He will sit on the Throne of David for the whole thousand year period. Incidentally, the meaning of the word "Millennium," in the Greek is "Chiliasm" from the Greek "chilias" meaning one thousand and was taught as a Premillennial view during the first 300 years of the early Body of Christ Period. But the word millennium itself is from the Latin "mill" meaning "one" and "ennium" meaning "years."
45. The Lord's Day for Israel refers to a "Millennial Sabbath of rest which the nation is to enter into {Hebrews 4:1-11}." The above Scriptures therefore, are referring to their millennial rest. This 1000 year Sabbatical Rest is to be the reality of which the following were Types and Shadows. "7th Day Rest ... {Genesis 2:2; Nehemiah 9:14}," "7th Week Rest ... {Leviticus 23:15; Acts 2:1-2}," "7th Month Rest ... {Leviticus 23:43}," "7th Year Rest ... {Leviticus 25:1-5; Exodus 21:1-3}," "7th Millennium Of Rest ... {Revelation 20:4}."
46. Bible chronology runs from the creation of Adam, the first man, onward through six millenniums, just after the end of the 6th Millennium will begin ... "the Millennium of Rest." Remember, One Day is as a 1000 years and a 1000 Years is as One Day. Therefore, the 7th Millennium will be the 1000 years that Christ will reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords upon this literal earth. Concerning the 8th Millennium, it is not mentioned as such because eternity will follow on after the New Earth along with the New Heavens have been recreated {see Revelation 21:1}. After the end of the 7th Millennium we are told that time shall be no more {Revelation 10:6}. Notice how the days occur in the Gospel of John ...
The Wedding In Cana Pictures The Second Coming According To Bible Numerology
47. Scripture "The next day John saw Jesus coming to him, and said behold the Lamb of God, which takes away the sin of the world, {John 1:29}."
48. This reference concerns the Lord's first coming and His sacrifice on the cross for sin. {V.35} speaks of the "Next Day" [i.e. The end of the second day]. {V. 51} refers to the heaven opening and "Angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man" which pictures the Second Coming of Christ. We know this because of what the next verse says: Scripture ...
49. "And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee ..., {John 2:1}."
50. The marriage in Cana pictures the Millennium. These 3 Days are typical of the 3 one thousand year periods from Christ's birth and on through His 1000 year reign. The marriage also pictures that of the marriage portrayed in ... {Revelation 19:7-9}.
The Story Of The Samaritans Is A Type Of The Second Coming According To Bible Numerology
51. Scripture {V.5}: "Then cometh He [Jesus] to a city of Samaria. ..."
52. {V.39} "And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on Him ..."
53. {V.40} "So when the Samaritans were come unto Him, they besought Him that He would tarry with them: and He abode there two days, {John Ch. 4:5, 39-40}."
54. The Lord Jesus was not being accepted by the Israelite Pharisees and was being troubled by them. They and their followers believed nothing of what he taught. Therefore, He made a trip into Samaria where He met a woman at a well. The point we wish to bring out in these verses are "The Days" which are mentioned. In {John 4:40}, we notice that: "... Christ abode there for two days," and Israel had not accepted Him previously. Therefore, He went to the Gentile Samaritans and many of them believed and accepted Him as the person whom He said He was and because of the Word He taught them. He visited these Samaritan Gentiles for two Days before He continued His ministry with Israel again.
These two days are a type of the two one thousand year days from His birth until His Second Coming. This is also typical of the two one thousand year days that Jesus spends setting at the right hand of the Father. Naturally, these 2000 years in typology consist of the Gentile ... Adopted Body of Christ Period from its beginning with the Apostle Paul to its Rapture [Resurrection]. The Scripture states ...
55. "Now after two days He departed thence and went into Galilee, {John 4:43}."
56. "Then when He was come into Galilee, the Galilaeans [Hebrews] received Him ... {V.45}."
57. Here we see that Jesus goes on the Third Day back to the Hebrews in Judea and they receive Him. This third day is a type of the thousand year day that follows His Second Coming in the beginning of the 3rd Millennium after His Birth. And this is a wonderful picture and type of the Lord Returning at the Second Coming to be received by His Hebrew Bride. He will reign over them from then on.
The Story Of Lazarus Portrays The Second Coming According To Bible Numerology
58. In John we find another account of Christ's 1000 Year Reign in Bible Numbers. In {John 11:3-7} we should note that Lazarus typifies Israel, Scripture ...
59. {V.3} "Therefore his [Lazarus's] sisters sent unto Him [Jesus], saying, Lord, behold, he [Lazarus] whom you love is sick.
60. {V.4} When Jesus heard that, He said, this sickness [of Lazarus] is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby.
61. {V.5} Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.
62. {V.6} When He [Jesus] had heard therefore that he [Lazarus] was sick, He abode two days still in the same place where He was.
63. {V.7} Then after that [two days] says He to His Disciples. Let us go into Judea again."
64. In {John 11:6} after Jesus had received word of Lazarus, He "... Abode Two Days still in the same place where He was." And in {V.11} Jesus states that "our friend Lazarus; sleeps; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep." Yet Jesus said in {V.14} "... Lazarus is dead." Then in {V.17} ... "when Jesus came, He found that he [Lazarus] had lain in the grave 'Four Days' already." In {John 5:1-9}, we find the impotent man, and then in {John 9:1-7} the blind man, and of course Lazarus in {Ch. 11}.
65. These Scriptures refer in type to the nation of Israel as being, No. 1: Morally Impotent, No. 2: Blind, and No. 3: Dead. These three demonstrations in healing and raising the dead, pictures the last miracle as the greatest showing forth the Deity of Christ. The sick man may be healed, but there is no remedy for death. Death convicts man as being lost sinners and conducts them to judgment. For because of sin, "It is appointed unto man once to die, and after this the Judgment." So Jesus waited for sin to do its utmost as to the body, and then went to manifest His Divine glory in raising it to life, already corrupt. It is still the same in Israel today. The nation is dead in rejection of Christ. But Christ loves it as we see in {John 11:3} in its two divisions, represented by Martha and Mary, {V.5 - & - 51-52}.
66. Soon the present Body of Christ will be resurrected and this period of history will be closed. Then the Lord will raise the nation of Israel up into their future Kingdom and into their Millennial life {Hosea 6:2}. It should be easily comprehended by the reader that the "Two Days" mentioned in {V.6} represented the time from the birth of Christ until the beginning of His Millennial Reign. The 4 Days In {V.17} is typical of Israel being dead to Christ from the calling of Abraham, who was the first Hebrew, until the Second Coming of Christ. From Abraham to Christ's birth was 2000 years [Two days] and another Two Days [two thousand years] until Christ's return to this earth.
67. {V.11}, where Lazarus was asleep, represents Israel in a sleeping condition from Abraham until the Second Coming [four days]. Israel was asleep to her Messiah, and she rejected Him as such, and is a picture of a man that has just died, as {V.14} states. Jesus waited "Two Days" in {V.6}, a picture of the time from His birth and death when Israel rejected Him and remained blind to Him but after [Two Days] from His birth until the Rapture [two thousand years] Jesus opens the eyes of the blind man, [the Hebrew Nation "called Jacob" during the Tribulation Period], {See Jeremiah 30:7}. From the Rapture to the Second Coming is at least a seven year period and two thirds of the Hebrews on earth will be killed [cut off] during the Tribulation Period {Zechariah 13:8}. One third will be left alive to inherit the Millennial Kingdom [7Th. Day]. The two days also represent the two Millenniums of the Body of Christ being called into salvation from off this earth!
The Transfiguration Portrays The Second Coming According To Bible Numerology ... After Six Days
68. In {Matthew 17:1-2}, we receive another look at this same prophecy according to Bible Numerology which also concerns the end of the six thousand years when Christ returns to the earth. Scripture ...
69. "And after six days Jesus takes Peter, James and John his brother, and brings them up into an high mountain apart, and was transfigured before them: and His face did shine as the sun, and His raiment was white as the light."
70. These two verses show how the Lord Jesus was transfigured on the Mount of Transfiguration, which is a type of the Second Coming of Christ when He returns to the earth and stands again upon the Mount of Olives: Scripture ...
71. "And His feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of olives, which is before Jerusalem, {Zechariah 14:4}."
72. This will be the fulfillment of the prophecy given by the two Angels in {Acts 1:10-11}.
73. Jesus will be in His glorious eternal body as portrayed in {V.2} of Matthew. And notice that {V.1} says "After Six Days." These "Six Days" are a type of the 6000 years mentioned before from Adam's creation until A. D. 2000. Six is always associated with the number of man which is one short of perfection. Seven is the Holy number and the Lord rested on the 7th Day after His creation. Man ruled the world in failure for the first 6000 years, but Christ will reign in perfection for the Sabbath or 7th Millennial day. To prove that His Transfiguration is a type of His Second Coming , the Apostle Peter states: Scripture ...
74. "For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we [Peter, James and John] made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eye witnesses of His Majesty, {2- Peter 1:16}."
75. And again we find even more proof that the Transfiguration was a picture of Christ's Millennial Kingdom Return when we read the Lord's Own Words;
76. Scripture, " Verily I say unto you, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of Man coming in His Kingdom, {Matthew 16:28}."
77. If the reader is only a fair Bible student he cannot fail to understand this prophecy. Peter, James, and John were the ones Jesus was referring to when He uttered that statement and they were the ones who went upon the Mount when He was transfigured before them, which was a type of His Second Coming. Remember John was the one who saw Christ return to the earth literally at His Second Coming ... {Revelation 19:11-13}. {See Job 19:25-27}.
The Second Coming According To Moses: In Bible Numerology
78. Moses told Israel to "be ready against the third day." He was speaking prophetically about the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus at the beginning of the third Millennium. Scripture...
79. "And be ready against the third day, for the third day the Lord will come down in the sight of all the people [i.e; Israel] upon Mount Sinai, {Exodus 19:11}."
80. The above verse says Mount Sinai, but in type this refers to the Mount of Olives {Zechariah 14:4}. Again, glance at our chart and note that we have referred to the first coming of our Lord as beginning "One Day" [from A.D. 1. to A.D. 1000]. This is found between the 5th and 6th Days.
81. The Second Day is shown as that thousand year day which began at A. D. 1000 through the year 2000 A. D. and ends with the resurrection of the Body of Christ. And then the 7 year reign and destruction of the Antichrist, is portrayed as taking place in the beginning of the 7th day on our chart. Moses said to "be ready against the Third Day" [after the birth of Christ] again we repeat: Moses was naturally speaking only to the Hebrew nation, for he said: "The Lord will come down in the sight of all the people [of Israel]." When Israel was to ready herself for the Second Coming of Christ in the "Third Day," this is a picture of the Hebrew Bride of Christ fulfilling the Commandment foretold in {V. 11} above and portrays the glad tidings that the saved Israelites shows forth in {Revelation 19:7} where they have completed their readiness according to what Moses had told them to do!
82. Scripture, "Let us be Glad and rejoice, and give honour to Him [Christ]: for the marriage of the Lamb [of God] is come, and His wife [Betrothed Hebrew Bride] has made herself ready, [to begin the marriage ceremony of herself to the Lord of Lord's]."
83. The reference here is to the Second Coming of Messiah, the Lord Jesus Christ. And this is noted on the chart as taking place in the time period beginning with the third 1000 year day after the birth of Christ, which is at the beginning of the 7th Day A. D. 2OO8 or a short time afterwards, and after the end of the "Sixth Day." Also since the Tribulation Period will be against or somewhere in the beginning of the "Third Day," the Hebrews should at that time ready themselves for their Messiah Bridegroom, and we repeat ... shortly after the beginning of the present third Millennium.
84. The reader will notice that we have not chosen a 24 hour day or a precise year for Christ's Return, to do so could be very foolish! We must be aware that our calendar may be off a short period of time. On the other hand knowing that the Second Coming will be at least seven years after the Rapture [translation of the Body of Christ], all we have to do is to watch the scenario that takes place in Israel and Russia for the key to the end time will be in that part of the world. Those events which occur in those places are at this present time proof that the advent of our Lord is soon to take place. Christ made very clear that in the "Third Day" He would be perfected.
85. Scripture, "And He said unto them, go you, and tell that fox [Herod Antipas]. Behold I cast out devils [Demons], and I do cures to day and tomorrow, [Two Days] and the "Third Day" I shall be perfected, {Luke 13:32}."
86. How easily it is to understand this text according to the number system portrayed in Scripture! Naturally Jesus will be perfected as King of King's and Lord of Lords when He rules over His subjects during the third Millennium [from His birth ]. The Psalmist states, Scripture ...
87. "For a thousand years in your [the Lord's] sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night, Psalm 90:4}."
88. The foot note in my Bible says that "the longest span of any human life [Methuselah lived 969 years] is but a day to God, Who is no more bound by time than is a man who sleeps through the night watch." Scripture ...
89. {V.32} "Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his [Israel's] branch is yet tender [becomes a new nation], and puts forth leaves, [such as the Gaza Strip, the Golan Hights - & - West Bank], summer [the Millennial Reign of Christ] is near:
90. {V.33} So likewise when you shall see all these things, know that it [the Millennial Reign of Christ] is near, even at the doors.
91. {V.34} Verily I say to you, This generation [that is living at that time] shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
92. {V.35} Heaven and earth shall pass away [and a new Heaven and earth will be recreated after that], but My Words shall not pass away, {Matthew 24:32-35}."
