John and Doves:

Several years ago I discovered the 7- days of creation in Genesis 1, were hidden in the 1^st and 2^nd chapters of the Gospel of John. I studied it out for quite along time, and was absolutely fascinated with what I found. I feel it is time to turn this information loose on the five doves to see if anyone else would find it interesting as well, and would relay their info to us all.

Back then my interest was in trying to “glean” any information out of both Genesis and John trying to figure out the dates when lets say the 6^th day ended (6000^th year), and the 7^th day began. I guess that’s my motivation even more so today as I see the day approaching, and I hope that will be yours as well with this information. I will try and not make this long and boring, I think I will quickly take each day and expound on it a little, hoping you will study it a lot.

As you study this consider the following facts: A) The natural always comes before the spiritual (1Cor 15:46) B) ”The Old is the New contained” and “the New is the Old explained”

C) The end is declared from the beginning (Isa. 46:10) D) The old testament is the “shadow” of things to come, whereas the New Testament is the “light” casting the shadow. E) One day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as a day (2Peter 3:8).

DAY ONE:

Gen. 1:1-3, = John 1:1-5

“LIGHT”

Ge. 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

Jn 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God

Ge 1:3-5 And God said, let there be light: and there was light. 4. And God saw the light that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. 5. And God called the light day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

Jn 1: In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5. And the light shineth in the darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

DAY TWO:

Gen. 1:6-8, = John 1:6-13

“DIVISION AND SEPARATION” CAUSED BY THE FIRMAMENT

Ge. 1:6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters

Jn. 1:6-8 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7. The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the light, that all men through him might believe. 8. He was not that light, but was sent to bear witness of that light. 9. That was the true light which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

Ge. 1:8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.

Jn. 1:12-13 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: 13. Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

DAY THREE:

Gen.1:9-1 = John 1:14-28

“EARTH AND SEED”

Ge. 1:9-10 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. 10, And God called the dry land Earth…

Jn. 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwell among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father.) full of grace and truth.

Ge. 1:12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his king, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

Jn. 1:18 No man hath seen God at any time: the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the father, he hath declared him.

DAY FOUR:

Gen. 1:14-19 = John 1:29-42

Revelation Revealed: “Jesus (Sun) and his Church (moon) revealed after 4000 years on the 41^st day after Christ’s baptism”

Ge. 1:14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven…and let them be for SIGNS, AND FOR SEASONS, AND FOR DAYS, AND FOR YEARS:

Ge. 1:16-17 And God made two great lights; the greater light (Jesus the Sun )to rule the day, and the lesser light (The Church:moon) to rule night: he made the stars (Jews) also. 17. And God set them in the firmament of Heaven to give light upon the earth.

Jn 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world

Jn. 1: Vs 31 “manifest”, Vs 32 “saw”, Vs. 33 “see”, Vs. 34 “saw”, Vs. 36 “looking”

Ge 1:16 And God made …the lesser light (The Church:moon) to rule the night:...

Jn. 1:41-42 He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is being interpreted, the Christ. 42. And he brought him to Jesus, And when Jesus beheld him, he said, Thou art Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, A stone (like the moon)

DAY FIVE:

Gen. 1:20-23 = John 1:43-46

“LIFE BEGINS”! Religion is man seeking after God

“THE CHURCH AGE GOES FORTH”

Ge. 1:20 And God said, let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of Heaven.

Jn. 1:43 The day following Jesus would go forth into Galilee, and findeth Phillip, and saith unto him Follow me

Ge. 1:22 And God blessed them saying, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the sea…

Jn. 1:45 Philip findeth Nathanael…

Jn 1:46 And Nathanial said unto him, Can there any good come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see.

(Note: “the day following” in vs-43 thru vs-51, is the “42^nd” day after Christ’s baptism. This also commences the “5000^th” Biblical year (5^th day) since the first day in Gen 1:5

DAY SIX:

Gen 1:24-31 = John 1:47-51

“LIFE CONTINUES”! Relationship is God seeking after man

“THE CHURCH AGE CONTINUES TO GO FORTH HIGHER”

Ge. 1:24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so

Ge. 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion…

Jn. 1:47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!

Jn. 1:48-49 Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knoweth thou me? Jesus answered and saith unto him, Before that Phillip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee. 49. Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God: thou art the King of Israel.

Jn. 1:51 And he saith unto him, Verily, Verily I say unto you. Hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.

(That is after the 6^th day or 6000^th year): in “the third day” according to Hosea 6:2)

DAY SEVEN:

Gen. 2:1-3 = John 2:1-11

“REST AND BLESSINGS BEGIN”

Ge. 2:1-3 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. 2. And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made: and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. 3. And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.

Jn. 2: 1-2 And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there: 2. And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.

Jn. 2:5 …Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it (this is the law of the Millennium)

Jn. 2:6 And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews (Jacob’s trouble)

Jn 2:10…but thou hast kept the good wine until now.

JOHN 2:11 This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory…

I believe contained within these texts are hidden the answers we are all searching for: clues to the timing of Christ’s return. I believe we can go as deep into this as we wish. I have only scratched the surface; the tip of the iceberg so to speak. I hope some of you will take it from here and tell us what you found. Any comments?

In His Service,
