"August 15, 2007 and Elul 1"


 

Doves,

 

Earlier this month I was looking at the Jewish Calendar and reading Tony’s post dated 7/26/2007.

Moses Ascends Sinai for the 3rd 40 Days

On the early morning of the 1st of Elul of the year 2448 from creation (1313 BCE) Moses ascended Mount Sinai, taking with him the stone tablets he had hewn by divine command (see "Today in Jewish History" for yesterday, Av 30), for G-d to re-inscribe the Ten Commandments. On the mountain, G-d allowed Moses to "see My back, but not My face" (which Maimonides interprets as a perception of G-d's reality but not His essence) -- the closest any human being ever came to knowing G-d -- and taught him the secret of His "Thirteen Attributes of Mercy" (Exodus 33:18-34:8).

Moses remained on the mountain for 40 days, until the 10th of Tishrei (Yom Kippur), during which time He obtained G-d's whole-hearted forgiveness and reconciliation with the people of Israel following their betrayal of the covenant between them with their worship of the Golden Calf. This was the third of Moses' three 40-day periods on Mount Sinai in connection with the Giving of the Torah. Ever since, the month of Elul serves as the "month of Divine mercy and forgiveness."

August 15, 2007 also happens to fall on the day that the Catholic Church celebrates the “Assumption of Mary”.  Although I do not believe in their doctrine of “Assumption” because it is without evidence, it does make me wonder if it might serve as prophetic shadow.  Because it is a shadow, the event will not be taking place perhaps, but it shadows a significant event to come.

 

There are many cultures that have story’s about the TWINS (even Star Wars), yet there has never been any fulfillment to the mystery, though there is evidence that it is an important piece in the prophetic puzzle.

 

Zec 4:14  Then said he, These [are] the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth.

 

Mat 20:23  And he saith unto them, Ye shall drink indeed of my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on my right hand, and on my left, is not mine to give, but [it shall be given to them] for whom it is prepared of my Father.

 

Rev 11:3  And I will give [power] unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred [and] threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.

Rev 11:4  These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.

 

1Cr 9:24 ¶ Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.

 

Since I made mention in an earlier post about Hurricane Rita (meaning Pearl ), that it hit land on 9/24/2005, it had to signify a significant event coming.

 

Hag 2:18  Consider now from this day and upward, from the four and twentieth day of the ninth [month, even] from the day that the foundation of the LORD'S temple was laid, consider [it].

Hag 2:19  Is the seed yet in the barn? yea, as yet the vine, and the fig tree, and the pomegranate, and the olive tree, hath not brought forth: from this day will I bless [you].

Hag 2:20 ¶ And again the word of the LORD came unto Haggai in the four and twentieth [day] of the month, saying,

Hag 2:21  Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah , saying, I will shake the heavens and the earth;

Hag 2:22  And I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms, and I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the heathen; and I will overthrow the chariots, and those that ride in them; and the horses and their riders shall come down, every one by the sword of his brother.

Hag 2:23  In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, will I take thee, O Zerubbabel, my servant, the son of Shealtiel, saith the LORD, and will make thee as a signet: for I have chosen thee, saith the LORD of hosts.

 

I also mentioned about Hurricane Martha in 1969.

Watch…

 

Elul 1 = 8/15/1969

Elul 1 = 8/15/1977

Elul 1 = 8/15/2007

 

3135g = Pearl

3136g = Martha

3137g = Mary

 

In essence, Moses, a type of Zerubbabel, ascends the mountain of God Elul 1 in the year 2448 from creation, on the same day (this year) as it is assumed Mary ascended 8/15.

 

2448g = Judah (he shall be praised)

 

Mentioned only twice in the NT.

 

Mat 2:6

And 2532 thou 4771 Bethlehem 965, [in] the land 1093 of Juda 2448, art 1488 not 3760 the least 1646 among 1722 the princes 2232 of Juda 2448: for 1063 out of 1537 thee 4675 shall come 1831 a Governor 2233 , that 3748 shall rule 4165 my 3450 people 2992 Israel 2474.

Luk 1:39

And 1161 Mary 3137 arose 450 in 1722 those 5025 days 2250, and went 4198 into 1519 the hill country 3714 with 3326 haste 4710, into 1519 a city 4172 of Juda 2448;

 

 

In the grand scale, Jesus was and is the Governor that will rule the people of Israel and is the literal fulfillment of the prophecy.  Yet there is a type or similitude being cast toward a work of Grace which God is the author and finisher of.  In essence, I see a joining between Judah and Ephraim, making them as one.  I believe this is the connection between the heavenly prototype (Jesus) and the work of Grace (Ephraim).  Just as there is a bride of Christ, Ephraim will also have a bride to represent what the church will look like as people who are one with Christ.

 

If you have ever seen a crystal grow, the New Jerusalem is likened unto a crystal.  When the earthly joins to the heavenly, everything earthly will become aligned and adhere together as if it is a crystal that grows.  Then as it will become like army that does not break its ranks.  Every part will move as if it is one part.  Everyone in the body will flow together as one.

 

When do we get raptured you might ask?  You and I might be very well ready to go.  But how many of us have searched the highways and byways to compel people to come.  We have our invitation, but we are not concerned about the people who have not received one.

 

If you KNEW that Jesus was returning in a week, a month, a year, would you not lay everything aside and compel everyone you knew that Jesus was returning?  I would.  Perhaps if there is a last trumpet, there is also a first that calls us to assemble our ranks.  Then as a mighty army, we will make a complete sweep of every house and every nation to find every last one that will be saved.  As Jesus explains,…

 

Luk 15:8 ¶ Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she find [it]?

 

When God lights his candlesticks, you will know the time is very short.

 

Blessings,
