Dear Doves,
I believe that the Transit of Venus that recently occurred may be hinting at our soon rescue from Babylon. We are strangers in this world, strangers without a home on this planet, just like Daniel was all those thousands of years ago. Like him, we are waiting rescue from God, but this time in the form of the Rapture.
There are some fascinating mathematical facts about the recent Transit of Venus that should give us great hope that our rescue will be soon at hand. The Bible is clear that the planets, the stars, the sun and the moon were all put there for signs (among other reasons). The recent Transit of Venus is just one of those signs, and a big one at that.
First some background on Venus:
- Venus is known as the morning star and the evening star. Venus is called this because it is exceptionally bright in both the morning and the evening just before the Sun pops up.
- In Revelation 22, Jesus refers to Himself as the morning star (while it is also true that Satan had been called the morning star, as per Isaiah, that title no longer applied to Satan after he fell).
- This specific mention of Jesus as the morning star, Venus, in the Bible, has meant that, when something occurs with Venus, I sit up and take notice.
Second some background on the Sun:
- The Sun is often referred to as representing God the Father. It is so bright that one cannot stare at it without losing their sight (God told Moses that looking on His full glory would cause instant death).
- No life on this planet would exist without the Sun, just like it wouldn’t exist without God (sorry evolutionists). The Sun supplies us with all of our energy. When we burn wood, we are burning stored sunlight. When we start our cars, we are burning stored sunlight.
- The power of the Sun is beyond comprehension. Similarly, its creator, GOD, is also beyond comprehension!!
Third some background on the June 5/6 Transit of Venus:
- The Transit of Venus is an exceedingly rare event. It only happens once every 110 to 130 years, and, when it does, it always happens twice within 8 years of each other.
- The last two Transits happened on June 8, 2004 and June 6, 2012.
- However, did you notice that, from June 8, 2004 to June 6, 2012, there are EXACTLY 8 years x 365 days? In other words, the two leap days in 2008 and 2012 are ignored. Two similarities to “as in the days of Noah”: (i) 365 days is the number of days that were now in the year AFTER Noah left the ark (not counting leap day adjustments); and (ii) there were exactly 8 people saved in the ark, including Noah!!
I believe this precision is telling us to notice two things - this celestial event AND the number eight. For those who study numerics in the Bible, you will recognize the number eight as referring to New Beginnings.
My personal take on the Transit of Venus, and what it MAY have been meant to symbolize, is summarized as follows:
- Venus journeyed across the Sun by travelling East to West from the earth's perspective. However, from the Sun's perspective, Venus was travelling from RIGHT TO LEFT.
- I believe this may symbolize Jesus (Venus) moving from the RIGHT hand of the Father (Sun) and travelling to the left side to "get His Bride" in the near future.
- Why would Jesus EVER leave the right hand of the Father? We know the Rapture won't occur until the Son is told by the Father to go get your Bride. Being the perfect Son, obedient as in life, He stood up from His seat at the Right hand of the Father to come get us. This is a really nice parallel!!
- In turn, the sudden removal of the Bride will remove that which keeps the man of lawlessness, Obama, in check (in reality, the Holy Spirit that resides within us).
Additional Observations on the Transit of Venus
Could the Transit of Venus have been the world's final warning that the Church will be soon removed and that the earth would never be the same? I believe so. Here are some additional interesting facts about this Transit to get us excited that perhaps it is:
- LENGTH OF TRANSIT: The Transit of Venus took EXACTLY 6 hours and 40 minutes. 40 minutes = 2/3rds of an hour = .666666. In other words, the Transit took 6.66 hours to complete, perhaps symbolic of the AC (666) to soon arise shortly after we are removed.
- RELATION TO 9/11: The timing of the Transit in relationship to one of the biggest events in recent history is also quite remarkable. From 9/11 to the Transit of Venus on June 6, 2012, there is EXACTLY 7 x 70 x 8 days!! I will elaborate on this number below.
- Many feel the Lord warned us to repent on 9/11 and turn back to the Lord and not the world. MANY did!! But only for a short time!!
- But the Lord has patience and mercy and STILL gave us even more time.
- How many times must we forgive other, Jesus was asked? The Lord’s reply, “7 x 70 times”!!
- Look again at the EXACT number of days from 9/11 to the Transit of Venus!! 7 x 70 x 8!! In other words, we have gone through 8 CYCLES of 7 x 70 times as at the Transit of Venus TO THE EXACT DAY!!
- Also, do not forget that 8 is the number of New Beginnings!! Again, how wonderfully symbolic!!
Has the Lord's patience finally run out on this world? Is it finally time for the Son to remove His Bride from this rapidly deteriorating world? Is the remarkable timing and symbolism of this Transit of Venus hinting at our soon departure?
I believe the answer to all three questions is a resounding YES!! The question that remains is, HOW LONG? All signs are pointing to SOON, VERY SOON!! In particular, the celestial signs point to us possibly being in the final 21 Day War as per Revelation 12, which ends 21 days inclusive from the Transit’s beginning on June 5 / 6 to June 25 / 26!!
This is just around the corner!! If you haven’t already, read Gerry Almond’s awesome post on this subject below:

Possible Rapture before June 25 / 26
While Gerry and I both agree 21 days would NOT be necessary for our Awesome Lord if He so chose (as He could defeat Satan in an instant), this is probably more likely both a symbolic AND literal period of time. A period of time using Daniel as its precedent, thereby marking its importance in the Lord’s Redemption Plan!!
In other words, and in line with Navi’s post yesterday, it doesn’t HAVE to be 21 days in length. 21 days is just our “best guess” speculation on the length of the war as outlined in Revelation 12, based on the precedent in the Book of Daniel.
June 18th: I find it noteworthy that 40 days from Obama’s Gay Marriage Declaration on May 9, 2012 lands on June 18th. In turn, June 18th is EXACTLY 7 days prior to June 25th. Don’t forget that Noah was given a 7 day warning to load the ark. Could a Rapture on June 18th end up being a 7 day warning be for those fence walkers and Jews that the 1260 day reign of the Anti-Christ begins on June 25th / 26th?
June 21st: Also note that, the Summer Solstice + 1290 days (Daniel 12:11) takes us right to year end 2015. The Summer Solstice is a highly occultic date and could be the date planned for Sudden Destruction (with the Rapture just before). Interestingly, it will be Prince William’s 30th birthday on this particular day.
The above is astronomy NOT astrology
There may be some that are reading this article that are nervous about the above analysis. Don’t be!! Our watching of celestial objects for signs is SPECIFICALLY outlined in the Bible and is actually one of the first instructions to us in the Bible as outlined by God Himself:
Genesis 1:14, “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:"
In other words, the study of the stars in a BIBLICAL context is astronomy mixed with God's handiwork. In contrast, the study of the stars in a MYSTICAL context, wherein the God of the Bible has no part, is astrology. In other words, I fully agree that astrology is forbidden and should not be dabbled in and, without a doubt, the above is definitely NOT astrology!!
MARANATHA!! Surely our redemption draws EXTREMELY near!!
