Dear John & Doves,
 
  I decided to see what unbroken string of numbers make up 1017 and 2004, and to see what important smaller strings of numbers I could find inside of them like Hebrew or Greek gematrias for the Ten Patriarchs, or their ages at important times in their lives since we are hoping that the Rapture takes place on 1017 in 2004. <grin>  Below are my findings.
 
  48 thru 65 = 1017.  Inside of that string of numbers are the following:  48 + 49 = 97 prime number x 3 = 291st day (10/17.)  Prime # 97 x 2 = THE BRIDE THE LAMB'S WIFE 194 in English gematria.  48 thru 53 = 303 yrs. Mahalaleel lives after Enoch's rapture.  48 thru 54 = ENOS 357 in Hebrew.  48 thru 63 = JESUS 888 in Greek. 49 thru 62 = 777 Lamech's age at death.  49 thru 63 = 840 yrs. Enos lives after his son Mahalaleel is born.  49 thru 65 = 969 = Methusaleh's age at death.  50 thru 52 = 153 yrs. Enos lives after Enoch taken to heaven. (153 fish is the sign of the saved church). 50 thru 54 = 260 chapters in New Testament.  50 thru 61 = 666 MARK OF THE BEAST.  50 thru 64 = NOAH 855 in Greek.  51 thru 54 = CAINAN 210 in Hebrew.  52 + 53 = 105 Seth's age when his son Enos was born.  52 thru 55 = JARED 214 in Hebrew.  52 thru 56 = 270 electoral votes need to win in a presidential election in a leap yr.  53 + 54 = BRIDEGROOM 107 in English.  53 thru 55 = 162 Jared's age when his son Enoch was born. 162 also Hebrew gematria for Benjamin, and 162 inches is the measurement on Noah's ark from the bottom of the top deck to the escape window.  54 thru 59 = 339th day (Clay's supernatural experience began with the Lord in 1997.)  54 thru 62 = 522 inches is the measurement of Noah's ark from the bottom of the ark to the escape window. 56 + 57 = 113 Lamech's age at Enoch's rapture.  56 thru 64 = 540 inches which is the measurement of Noah's ark from bottom to top.  57 thru 60 = 234 yrs. before Noah's flood Jared dies. 57 thru 62 = ENOS 357 in Hebrew.  58 thru 62 = 300 age of Methusaleh at Enoch's rapture.  59 thru 62 = 242 word in Strong's Greek dictionary which means "leap, or spring up."  The 242nd chapter of the NT is Rev. 4 which is a rapture chapter.  61 thru 63 = 186th chapter in NT which another rapture chapter of 1 Thess. chapter 4.
 
  109 thru 117 = 1017.  Inside of those string of numbers are the following:  109 thru 114 = 669 yrs. Methusaleh lives after Enoch was raptured to heaven.  112 thru 114 = 339th day that Clay's supernatural experience began with the Lord.  112 thru 117 = 687 Methusaleh's age when his son Lamech is born. (687 divided by 3 = 229 leap yr. day).  Also 113 thru 115 = 342 (342 inches is the measurement on Noah's ark from the bottom of the second deck to the escape window.)  And 114 + 115 = 229 leap yr. day.
 
  167 thru 172 = 1017. Inside of those string of numbers are the following:  167 which is a prime number when multiplied by 12 = 2004.  Also 169 + 170 = 339th day which was the day Clay's supernatural experience began with the Lord.  171 + 172 = 343rd word in Strong's Concordance Hebrew dictionary for "calamity; destruction," and word #343 in Strong's Concordance Greek Dictionary which means "to unveil -- open, taken away."
 
  72 thru 95 = 2004. Inside those string of numbers are the following:  72 thru 83 = 930 Adam's age at death.  74 + 75 = 149 MAHALALEEL in Greek.  76 + 77 = 153 yrs. Enos lived after Enoch taken to heaven.  77 thru 79 = 234 yrs. Jared dies before Noah's flood.  77 thru 81 = 395 yr. Mahalaleel born & 395 is Manasseh in Hebrew.  77 thru 86 = 815 yrs. Enos lives after his son Cainan born.  77 thru 91 = 1260 days in Great Tribulation.  78 + 79 = 157 (157 hex = 343 dec = 527 oct, and 527 was Jared's age at his son Enoch's rapture.) 79 thru 93 = 1290 yr. Mahalaleel dies.  81 thru 86 = ASHER 501 in Hebrew.  81 thru 88 = LAMECH 676 in Greek.  81 thru 90 = NOAH 855 in Greek.  82 thru 88 = 595 yrs. Lamech lives after Noah born.  84 thru 87 = 342 inches from the bottom of the second deck on Noah's ark to the escape window.  84 thru 91 = SETH 700 in Hebrew.  85 thru 89 = 435 yrs. Jared lived after his son Enoch was taken to heaven.  85 thru 94 = 895 age of Mahalaleel at death.  86 thru 95 = 905 age Enos dies.  89 thru 91 = 270 electoral votes needed to win in a presidential election in a leap yr.  90 thru 93 = 366 yrs. Jared dies before Noah's flood, and 366 days in a leap yr.  90 thru 94 = 460 yr. Jared born. 93 + 94 = 187 age of Methusaleh at his son Lamech's birth..
 
  God bless,
