Well, we have been bombarded with foolishness, especially over the last few decades, about such things. There has been a lot of "crying wolf" that has gone on. It makes it difficult to actually take the time to look at things that have, are, or will occur.
But, let's take a look at some sign realities and folks can decide what to do with it. The analysis on these various events have been done by separate people, not working in a vacuum, and not really in collusion with others. The fascinating thing is how these events are in convergence with each other.
Mark Biltz was one of the first to take notice of the blood moon tetrad and it's significance. There were 4 blood moon (full lunar eclipses) in 2014 and 2015 cumulatively. One on Passover and one on Feast of Tabernacles, two years in a row. Total of 4. that is eye catching. Not necessarily unique, but not very common either. Folks doing planetary motion program analysis showed that this is extremely rare for all 4 to fall only on Biblical feast days, two years in a row.
Add in that Star of Bethlehem event of 2015. That was where Jupiter and Venus, the two brightest planets, were side by side in such a way to be the largest and brightest star to the naked eye. I can't recall the guy who first broke this information before it happened. One thing that is interesting, the Wise Men of the gospel account said they had seen the star two years prior to coming to Bethlehem to bring gifts. Well, it has been two years since that 2015 event.
This year, the U.S. saw the first total solar eclipse that covered coast to coast since 1776, the country's founding. And this event occurred just before the start of the 40 days of repentance before Yom Kippur / Day of Atonement, or Elul 1 on the Jewish calendar. Might not be significant, but the folks investigating this stuff with those astronomical programs found that on the same day of the Jewish calendar, when Jonah was told to warn Ninevah to repent or God would bring destruction on them, there was a total solar eclipse that occurred to Ninevah. I don't believe is coincidences. And the U.S. can't seem to get any of it's act together. We can't even keep hi tech Navy warships from running into other ships this year. 4 occurrences so far this year. Add in a rather spectacular hurricane event, with another bearing down. Harvey is estimated to be the 2nd most costly natural disaster to hit us. Hurricane Irma is still a ways off, but almost at Cat 4 status and heading our way, most probably the East Coast on this one. Little too soon to tell exactly where. It will be in our area before too long.
Then we come to the Revelation 12 event that is to occur on September 23rd. That one was discovered by Scott Clarke and he has detailed analysis of this cosmic alignment that matches the woman in Revelation 12 sign. Clarke put this stuff out almost 6 years ago. Some have tried to debunk it, but when you analyze their approach, they are a little disingenuous by leaving out significant details of the event. Most use standard tired arguments that are designed to shut down serious analysis. Several researchers have peer reviewed Clarke's findings and it is quite sound. This event falls at the end of Rosh Hashanah, another significant Jewish feast day, and the next one on the agenda after the ones Yeshua fulfilled at His first coming. Those that have researched the cosmic alignment that seems to mirror Revelation 12 have confirmed that this alignment hasn't occurred in the previous 6000 years or 1000 years in the future.
Yeshua said that the generation alive when the things He described in Matthew 24, would not pass till all be fulfilled. Many have speculated how long a generation is. 50 years? 70 years? or what?
In 1897, the first Zionist Congress was convened to work on establishing a Jewish homeland. 120 years ago. In 1917, 100 years ago, the Balfour Declaration was issued by Great Britain (who controlled the middle east after the fall of the Ottoman Empire during WW I) to allow Jews to migrate to what is now Israel. In 1947, 70 years ago, UN 181 that partitioned out land for Israel was done, and the following year the State of Israel was established. In 1967, 50 years ago, Israel reclaimed all of Jerusalem. That makes 2017 a scriptural Jubilee year.
Paul said in 1 Thessalonians 5:3 that when people are claiming Peace and Safety, sudden destruction will come upon them. The United Nations each year has a International Peace Day. The have a slogan for each one. It falls on September 21st, which for the first time in 16 years of this annual event occurring, it falls on Rosh Hashanah, two days before the Revelation 12 sign. Here are the slogans of several years past....
2014: The Right of Peoples To Peace
2015: Partnerships for Peace - Dignity for All
2016: Sustainable Development Goals: Building Blocks For Peace
Now 2017 and compare to Paul's statement above....
2017: Together for Peace, Respect, Safety, and Dignity for All.
One can take all of this and figure out what it all means. Some postulate that the Rapture occurs at the Revelation 12 sign cosmic convergence this September 23rd. Could be. One thing for certain, I think that all of the above events, lining up the way they do, is letting us know that something bad is on the horizon. Two distinct scriptures come to mind before dismissing all this stuff out of hand as BS.......
Proverbs 18:13 (NKJV) He who answers a matter before he hears it, It is folly and shame to him.
Numbers 14:11 (NKJV) Then the Lord said to Moses: “How long will these people reject Me? And how long will they not believe Me, with all the signs which I have performed among them?
Umm, yeah OK buddy......whatever that's supposed to mean.
