Hi friends, Im not so strong with those about Holy days etc. Bu this is deeply interesting, - last year I was disappointed when nothing happen at Ascension day, because I believed in, that this was the day, remembering the words from the Angels to those who saw Jesus go away in the clouds. But nothing happen last year.Now Randy write in his letter yesterday, that the day of firstfruit is 27th of April, and 4o days after, 6/7 of June is Ascension day, and Gloria say in her letter, that the true pentecost is June 6/7, - could someone explain for me ? - because I now have the same feelings in my stomick as last year, about Ascension day.Have a blessed weekend all of you, - Marana-tha, ybic, Jan Mikael !Gloria McCrea (28 Mar 2008)
"True Hebrew Pentecost"
If the rapture truly fulfills a Jewish Feast, Pentecost would be my second guess. (Feast of Trumpets would be my first guess.) I'd even accept "no man knows the day nor the hour" (out-of-the-blue imminency.)
In case it's to be on Pentecost this year, it's good to keep in mind that the Biblical Hebrew way of figuring out when that will be is different than what some may assume.
This data is from Hebrew-Christian sources:
"Pentecost always occurs on a Sunday 50 days after the Feast of Hebrew Firstfruits.
"Feast of Firstfruits is always on the Sunday after the Passover."
(Source : antipas.net/pentecost.htm)
"A false Pentecost is Sunday, May 11, 2008, 28 days before true Pentecost.
True Pentecost begins June 7, 2008, at sundown."
Can any of you with a Hebrew-Christian knowledge verify this?
