Hi John,

 

I am writing this email to respond to a post by Julia on your website about the number 47, here is my story: -

 

I am a Christian, I became a Christian at age 14, but then wandered from the faith for 32 years. I am now 47 years old and my faith has been restored this year, and things are happening to me that I can’t explain other than that they are supernatural. I am zealous in my faith but my wife is not a Christian, she has aggressively opposed me in anything Christian I do or say. I took her to lunch one day and I told her I want to work full time for Jesus. She told me that if I do this she will divorce me. I told her that her decision to want to divorce me would not change my mind, I am determined that one day soon I will work for Jesus. We agreed over lunch that I would move out of our bedroom into another room for a separation period of 1 year, and after 1 year we would divorce (that’s the law here). Just before we left the restaurant, something made me look at the table number, the waiter had seated us at table 47. When we got home for some reason we did not talk to the children that day or night, and went to bed as normal. The next morning my wife was very tearful and apologised to me, and she said that she didn’t want to leave me and she wants to make our marriage work. Since then she has been much more tolerant of my Christianity.

 

Prior to this I became interested in blood moon tetrads, and I discovered that it is 47 years since the last blood moon tetrad. I also discovered that 47 days after the first blood moon in the tetrad in 1967, Israel captured Jerusalem and the war was over.

 

I find this all very interesting and see the hand of God in everything!

 

Blessings,

Martin
