The sequence in Genesis is correct, however the question may be better asked, what is the meaning of the 1260? ( never trust a man that asks his own questions
). Here is where the meat of the matter comes in. Do the two witnesses prophecy for 1260 days or concerning the meaning of it. This is where it is not coming together for you, but that's OK, one step at a time. I'll tell you a funny thing about the seemingly unrelated subject, the migrations of the earth and moon in relation to the sun. ( by now your thinking, where did I find this nut
). Well, the last prophecy (the way I see it) to go out before Christ returns IS the 1260, then the two are killed. So why would I mention the sun and moon?
Genesis 1:14-16 (King James Version)
[sup]14[/sup]And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:
[sup]15[/sup]And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
[sup]16[/sup]And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
Well, it seems we have our first sign and our last, what are the chances?
Now the sun and the moon from our perspective, do this dance in the sky, they go through a series of eclipses called the saros. Now these series last an average of 1260 years ( Hey have you seen that number anywhere before? ) This is where an inquisitive mind might say,....hmmmm!
Are you going Hmmmm?
