Hi:

PEARL HARBOR DAY SIGN

Thanks for reminding me. Japan just had two huge earthquakes, a 7.3 and a 6.2, on Pearl Harbor Day. Dec. 7, 2012.

The strongest I have ever felt was 6.0 and that brought down part of the VA hospital, and I wasn't anywhere near the epicenter. I don't pay much attention to 4.0 or 5.0. They rattle the windows and vibrate my chair, but a 6.0 is scary. One time when we lived in La Mirada, nearer to Los Angeles than Riverside, we heard an earthquake in the middle of the night that not only rattled the windows, but sounded like a train was running over our bed. That was astonishing. I didn't know it could do that. Damage we have had is cracked driveway, cracked patio slab, cracked walls, cracked ceiling, broken ceramic fish that fell down from a high ledge. Not too bad for an earthquake prone region. We are near the San Andreas Fault.

"Tsunami waves up to 3 feet high hit the coast of Japan Friday, after a strong earthquake in the sea that shook buildings 300 miles away in Tokyo.
"The temblor was registered at a magnitude of 7.3 and struck at 5:18 p.m. local time (3:18 a.m. ET), according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
"The earthquake hit in the same area as the devastating quake and tsunami in March last year that killed nearly 20,000 people and triggered the world's worst nuclear crisis in 25 years.
"Friday's quake struck about 200 miles southeast of Kamaishi, the USGS said. The epicenter was 6.2 miles beneath the seabed, according to the Japan Meteorological Agency."

"M 6.2 - OFF EAST COAST OF HONSHU, JAPAN - 2012-12-07 08:31:14 UTC...253 km E Sendai"

I live in Riverside, CA, and Sendai is our sister city. I feel for them. They got the tsunami warning and had to flee, not knowing how big a tsunami would come ashore. The tsunami warning was turned off after a couple of hours. I saw one map of the island of Honshu. It was covered with earthquake circles. There must have been a flurry of smaller earthquakes besides the two big ones.

FIRST-TRUMP RAPTURE

I think Dec. 14, 2012 has the best chance of being the date of the First-Trump Rapture, because it will be Teveth 1, the only day during Hanukkah that the trumpet is to be blown. They were to blow the trumpet on the 7 feast days and the first day of each month.

Hurricane Sandy’s fury Oct 29 and 30 plus 40 days brings us to Dec. 7, Pearl Harbor Day, and Dec 8, Kislev 24, the Eve of Hanukkah. Kislev 24 is mentioned in Haggai 2:18,19. From this day and upward, we are to be blessed.

Tonight, my friend Suzie in Pensacola called to tell me that Fox News said that 40 years ago, on Dec. 14, 1972, Eugene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt, 11th and 12th men to walk on the Moon, lifted off of the Moon. It is a good sign. Launched from Earth on Dec 7, Apollo 17, the last of the Apollo Moon landing series, left the Moon one week later, on Dec. 14. They arrived on Earth on the 19th.

The Rapture is to be as in the days of Noah. Forty days from Cheshvan 17 is Dec. 12 – 12-12-12. That is the date when the 40 days of rain stopped in Noah’s day.

The next day, 12-13-12, will be my 84th birthday. The night of Dec. 13/14 is when the Geminid Meteor Shower is expected to peak. Gemini stands for the Bride and Bridegroom sitting together in heavenly places.

The next day, 12-14-12, is Teveth 1, when the trumpet is to be blown. It is also the day Esther, meaning star, was made Queen. What is to be has already been, and there is nothing new under the Sun.

Est 2:16-18 says, “So Esther was taken unto king Ahasuerus (meaning lion king, suggesting the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, Jesus) into his house royal in the tenth month, which is the month Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign. 17  And the king loved Esther above all the women, and she obtained grace and favour in his sight more than all the virgins (Esther was a wise virgin); so that he set the royal crown upon her head, and made her queen instead of Vashti. 18  Then the king made a great feast unto all his princes and his servants, even Esther's feast; and he made a release to the provinces, and gave gifts, according to the state of the king.”

That feast reminds me, I had a dream where Ed and I were walking up to the door of a large warehouse-type building in Heaven. A boy I brought to the Lord just before he was killed ran up and hugged me. Inside, we were seated at long tables covered with white tablecloths, then served food.

The word for month is chodesh. If there is no day number, it means the first day of the month, because it means both new moon and month. The new moon is the first day of the month. Next Friday is Teveth 1.

The Last-Trump Rapture is suggested by Esther 2:19. It says, "And when the virgins were gathered together the second time, then Mordecai (meaning little man) sat in the king's gate."

My husband Ed flew to Heaven on Teveth 1, 5772. I think the wise virgins will fly to Heaven on Teveth 1, 5773, Dec. 14, 2012. Jesus said he would give us the morning star. In Israel, Saturn will rise about 1:10 AM on Dec. 14. At that time, the only other planet visible will be Jupiter. I hope we will be caught up to Saturn the night of Dec. 13.14.

> 2Th 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not > come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be > revealed, the son of perdition

Actually, in 2 Thess 2:3, it is "he apostasia," THE DEPARTURE, or THE DISAPPEARANCE. That makes a big difference. Why?

In Scripture, the use of the definite article means that THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE ALREADY HAVE BEEN INTRODUCED TO. IT IS SOMETHING THAT WE SHOULD ALREADY KNOW. II Thess. 2:1-17 refers back to when the Rapture was discussed previously in 1 Thess 4:13-18. To understand the Rapture, then the revealing of the man of sin afterward, we should put all the information in the two passages together.

There are two mistakes in the KJV translation of II Thess. 2:1-3. The “day of Christ” should read “day of the Lord”, which is also the Day of God’s Wrath. After the KJV came out, three older copies of the Bible were found. All three, the Vatican Codex, the Alexandrine Codex, and the Sinaitic Codex have “day of the Lord”.

The word translated “falling away” is apostasia. It should be translated departing. It was so translated in the English Bibles before the KJV came out.

1. Wycliffe Bible (1330), "departynge first"
2. Tyndale Bible (1525/26), "departynge first"
3. Coverdale Bible 1535), "departynge first"
4. Crammer Bible (1539), "departynge first"
5. Beeches Bible (1583), "departing first"
6. Beza Bible (1583), "departing first"
7. Geneva Bible (1560), "departing first"

In the Liddell-Scott-Jones Lexicon of Classical Greek, apostasia means: 1. rebellion against God, apostasy, 2. DEPARTURE, DISAPPEARANCE, 3. distinguishing, and 4. distance.

To get a feel for what the Greek words really mean, let’s follow a rabbit trail in Strong’s Greek Concordance.
G646 apostasia
Feminine of the same as G647; defection from truth (properly the state), (“apostasy”): - falling away, forsake.
G647 apostasion
Neuter of a (presumed) adjective from a derivative of G868; properly something separative, that is, (specifically) divorce: - (writing of) divorcement.
G868 aphistēmi

From G575 and G2476; TO REMOVE, that is, (actively) instigate to revolt;

usually (reflexively) to desist, desert, etc.: - DEPART, draw (fall) away, refrain, withdraw self.
G575 apo
A primary particle; “off”, that is, away (from something near), in various senses (of place, time, or relation; literally or figuratively): - (X here-) after, ago, at, because of, before, by (the space of), for (-th), from, in, (out) of, off, (up-) on (-ce), since, with. In composition (as a prefix) it usually denotes separation, DEPARTURE, cessation, completion, reversal, etc.
G2476 histēmi
A prolonged form of a primary word στάω staō (of the same meaning, and used for it in certain tenses); to stand (transitively or intransitively), used in various applications (literally or figuratively): - abide, appoint, bring, continue, covenant, establish, hold up, lay, present, set (up), stanch, stand (by, forth, still, up). Compare G5087.
G5087 tithēmi
A prolonged form of a primary word θέω theō (which is used only as an alternate in certain tenses); to place (in the widest application, literally and figuratively; properly in a passive or horizontal posture, and thus different from G2476, which properly denotes an upright and active position, while G2749 is properly reflexive and utterly prostrate): - + advise, appoint, bow, commit, conceive, give, X kneel down, lay (aside, down, up), make, ordain, purpose, put, set (forth), settle, sink down.
G2749 keimai
Middle voice of a primary verb; to lie outstretched (literally or figuratively): - be (appointed, laid up, made, set), lay, lie. Compare G5087.

Here is that passage in the KJV. Notes in parentheses are mine.

2Th 2:1  Now we beseech you, brethren (believers), by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him (i.e., by means of the Rapture),
2Th 2:2  That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ (i.e., day of the Lord)  is at hand.
2Th 2:3  Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day (i.e., the Day of the Lord) shall not come, except there come a falling away (departing, i.e., the First-Trump Rapture) first, and that man of sin (i.e., the Satan possessed False Prophet) be revealed, the son of perdition (like Judas Iscariot,  possessed by Satan);
2Th 2:4  Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
2Th 2:5  Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?

We are the temple of the Holy Spirit. After we depart, the earthly Temple can be built.

2 Timothy 2:19 says, "Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ DEPART (G868 aphistemi) from iniquity."

1 Timothy 6:5 says, "Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such WITHDRAW (G868 aphistemi) thyself."

2 Corinthians 12:8 says, "For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might DEPART (G868 aphistemi) from me."

Acts 12:10 says, "When they were past the first and the second ward, they came unto the iron gate that leadeth unto the city; which opened to them of his own accord: and they went out, and passed on through one street; and forthwith the angel DEPARTED (G868 aphistemi) from him."

Luke 4:13 says, "And when the devil had ended all the temptation, he   (G868 aphistemi) from him for a season."

I think "apostasia" in 2Thess 2:3 should be translated "departure." The older Bibles had it right. The KJV was the first to get that wrong. Sadly, several modern versions have followed the KJV.

In the Geneva Bible, the "day of Christ" should be "day of the Lord", another mistake in this passage. Older manuscripts were found after the KJV was translated, the Sinaitic Codex (331 AD), the Alexandrine Codex (1078) and the Vatican Codex (1475 or 1481). All three have "day of the Lord".

The Day of Christ is the day of the First-Trump Rapture of I Thess 4:16,17, and the Day of the Lord is the day of the Last-Trump Rapture of I Cor 15:51,52 and the Day of God's Wrath.

2Th 2:2,3 in the Geneva Bible says, "That ye be not suddenly mooued from your minde, nor troubled neither by spirit, nor by worde, nor by letter, as it were from vs, as though the day of Christ (should be day of the Lord) were at hand. Let no man deceiue you by any meanes: for that day (i.e., the Day of the Lord) shall not come, except there come a DEPARTING first, and that that man of sinne be disclosed, euen the sonne of perdition" (emphasis mine).

After the First-Trump Rapture of the temple of the Holy Spirit, maybe on 12-14-12, the literal Temple can be built. Also, after we are gone, the False Prophet can be revealed. I wonder if that will happen 7 days later, on 12-21-12. Satan may have known the date he could enter into the False Prophet.

Agape,

Notice that on jan 17, 1995 was the Great Hanshin Eathquake in Japan-the largest of the 20th century since 1923=over 6400 people killed

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Hanshin_earthquake

this was 5897 days before 3-11 Japan

5897=777th prime

recall Hiroshima to 3-11 Japan was 33 x 726 days

Now from the Great Hanshin Quake to the one today-12-7-12= 9 x 726 days

G0726=harpazo

It is interesting that the 726 number is used again

from 3-11 to 12-7 is 637 days a number I am unfamiliar with

it is 7x 91 though

the 91st day of jewish calendar from tishri 1 is the 8th day of Hannukah.

I see significance repeatedly to the 1st day and 8th day of Hannukah

I talked about the 639 number from 3-11 in this post

http://www.fivedoves.com/letters/nov2012/wills1130-2.htm

There are 646 days from 3-11 to 12-16-the 8th day of Hannukah

G646 is used in the hotly debated verse-is the daparting the rapture or the falling away of faith. You can google Clay Cantrell's take on it if you care.

2Th 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
