Greetings to John, from Arlene who tries to speak the truth in love......
QUESTION TO JIM BRAMLETT RE: 1998 THRU 2005
Thank you, Jim for your continuing excellent posts, and keeping us alert and awake, and waiting. Your article on the titled dates was very intriguing. I wonder if you could give some thought to the 14 years that Jacob (type of Christ?) had to "work" for the "fruitful" bride, Leah, who was foisted upon him by Laban (Leah = the church?), and then turn right around after her "week was accomplished", and work again for his true love Rachel, who was not fruitful, and very aware of it, until God have mercy upon her and gave her a son....(Rachel = Israel?). If Christ receives the church as a bride, who has been a fruitful harvest, then the tribulation years (seven more years of work for Christ), would result in the second bride Rachel (Israel).
Jim, if you could think of this and put it together with your fourteen years, and also your ideas on Joseph, I would appreciate your thoughts. Joseph stored "grain" during the first 7 years (the church), and then his brothers returned to him and didn't recognize him, during the second 7 years, picturing the tribulation Jews returning to the Lord.
Thanks so much in advance....Your sister,,,,Arlene
