You stated “Jesus' ministry started with His baptism…”.  However, according to Matthew and Mark, Jesus began to preach after he heard John the Baptist was committed to prison.

Matthew 4:12-17 1599 Geneva Bible

12 ¶ [a]And when Jesus had heard that John was committed to prison, he returned into Galilee,

13 And leaving Nazareth, went and dwelt in [b]Capernaum, which is near the sea in the borders of Zebulun and Naphtali,

14 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the Prophet, saying,

15 The land of Zebulun, and the land of Naphtali by the way of the [c]sea, beyond Jordan, [d]Galilee of the Gentiles: (Were some Gentiles in the group of people who sat in darkness and saw a great light?)

16 The people which sat in darkness, saw great light: and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death, light is risen up.

17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Amend your lives: for the kingdom of heaven is at [e]hand.

 

Mark 1:14 1599 Geneva Bible

14 ¶ [a]Now after that John was committed to prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the Gospel of the kingdom of God,

 

Reference Daniel 9:24-27 1599 Geneva Bible.  Scripture says Jesus was crucified after week 62 which follows the first 7 weeks (7+62=69 weeks).  So according to scripture, Jesus was crucified in the 70^th week.  Scripture says the Messiah will be cutoff/crucified in the middle of the week.  Jesus’ crucifixion in the middle of the 70^th week means there are only 3.5 years remaining in the 70^th week to be fulfilled doesn’t it?

 

Pastor Bob, is there just one rapture or more than one?
