"The number 153"


 
Hi John and Doves,

Now that we know Daniel 7 weeks prophecy speaks of two very important days, Nisan 15 and Shavuot Pentecost, the mystery of the number 153 should be revealed to us now. 

153 consists of three numbers. They are 3, 50, and 100. 3 represents the three days event,  crucifixion on Passover, burial on Unleavened Bread, resurrection on first fruit. 50 represents Pentecost Shavuot. 100 represents completion. Jesus shall return on Nisan 15. A commandment is given forth on this day to rebuild Jerusalem. Fifty days later, on Pentecost Shavuot, restoration of Israel and Jerusalem is complete. This wraps up the tribulation and ends all the prophecies concerning the Second Advent.God's work on the church and His people Israel comes to completion on Shavuot Pentecost.

There will be an offering  held on Pentecost Shavuot. Jesus is the High Priest. He shall offer the remnant of Israel and tribulation saints to God the Father. God may even come out from His dwelling place, descends from heaven, and partakes this event.

There is another way we can look at the number 153. It still consists of the numbers 3, 50, and 100.  3 is the three days event,crucifixion, burial and resurrection. 50 is Pentecost. 100 represents Israelis is required to observe Passover and Pentecost 100 times before their Messiah will return. Crucifixion took place in 32 AD. 50 days later, Holy Spirit came to dwell on the disciples. The Jews faced their destruction in 70 AD. Between 32 AD and 70 AD, there were 38 years of observing Passover and Pentecost (70 minus 32). 100 minus 38=62. There is a remaining 62 years of observing Passover and Pentecost  after they came back as a nation in 1948. But they did not capture the old city Jerusalem and  the temple mount until 1967 six days war. So the remaining observation of Passover and Pentecost should begin in 1967. Adding the remaining 62 years to 1967, we come to 2029 (1967+62) as the fulfilment and completion of the number 100 in 153. 2029 should be the year their Messiah appears to the Jews. This is the second time, because they missed him the first time.

To be more exact, the calculation of 100 is this;

32 AD is the year crucifixion and Pentecost appeared. So the first year they commenmorate these two events was 33 AD.  33 AD is the 1st year, 34 AD is the 2nd year, 35 AD is the 3rd year, ......70 AD is the 38th year. Jerusalem was destroyed during the fifth month in 70 AD.  There was a total 38 years of observing Passover and Pentecost between 32AD and 70AD.

100 minus 38=62. 

There is  a remaining 62 years of commemorating Passover and Pentecost since they captured the old city Jerusalem and Temple Mount in 1967. They captured Temple Mount in the summer of 1967. So the commemoration and observation of Passover and Pentecost began in 1968. 1968 is the 39th year, 1969 is the 40th year, 1970 is the 41st year, .....2029 is the 100th year.
