Christ (1 Thess. 4:16) may rise on the same calendar day that
Christ arose. That day would be on the Sunday after the Spring
full moon in Israel, which occurs on Nisan 14
20(traditionally,
after the almond blossoms bloom in Spring). That will then
give those in the present day Mystery Church, who are alive
and remain, 40 days (previous typology had this time element)
before ascending or being raptured on the same day that Christ
ascended. Hallelujah!
Let’s now return to the discussion of prophecy and the
resurrection/restoration on the third day.
RESTORATION ON THE THIRD DAY—Continued
Since we have established that the days of Hosea 6:2 are
days of one thousand years each (as is the Millennial Day), we
can now make calculations concerning the time when the end
will come. Let’s assume the time when God left (Christ was cut
off) was 30 A.D.
21If you add 30 A.D. + 2,000 years, you get
2030 A.D. This would be the beginning of the third day or the
third 1,000 years!
THE COUNT DOWN—GOD USES 490’s
This date is also consistent with God’s number of 490, or
70 sevens, from the book of Daniel. By overviewing history, it
appears that God’s dealings with the Hebrew race will involve
four 70-week periods, each totaling 490 years (details to fol-
low). However, the actual time of each period is not recorded
20
The first month of the sacred year, called Abib in the Pentateuch,
for which it is substituted only in the time of the captivity (Neh. 2:1;
Esth. 3:7).
