Randy, I really appreciate your posts!  IF the Lord wants 70 years from 1948 till the Second Coming, THEN we will go up in the Rapture this fall, and you are most correct that Rosh Hashanah (the feast of not knowing the day and hour!) is the most likely time!  2012 + 7 = 2019, but the Great Tribulation (last 3 1/2 years of the 7 year Tribulation Period (Daniel's 70th week)) is shortened by one third (Matt. 24:21 & 22 and Rev. 8:12).  One third of 3 1/2 years is one year and two months.  So, by our current time standard, 2019 would actually be 2018, which is 70 years after 1948!  First century prophetic events were all wrapped up in around 70 years (IF Jesus was born around 0 AD, and we consider that the Romans sacked Jerusalem, scattered the Jewish people to the nations, and tore down the second temple in 70 AD---------70 years!).  And finally, the parable of the fig tree in the Bible links the first century with our present time period since Israel's return in 1948.  70 years the first time around, so why not now also?!

Again, IF the Lord wants 70 years this time around from Israel's return in 1948 till the Second Coming, THEN we are leaving!!!!  And most likely around Rosh Hashanah!

Keep giving us your posts, Mr. "Tick-Tock" Randy!  You are right on target!
