Hi John and Doves,



To begin my thought, let's calculate the year of Exodus. Solomon began his reign in 969 BC. In his fourth year which was 965 BC, he began to build the temple. 965 BC was also the
 480th year since Israelis left Egypt. 965 BC was 480th year, 966 BC was 479th year, 967 BC 478th year,....1444 BC the 1st year they left Egypt. Exodus occurred in 1444 BC.




From my thread " Where are we now since Adam" , I have calculated the year Israelis left Egypt occurred in year 2538 from Adam.




1444 BC is year 2538 from Adam.




Abraham was born in 1948. From Genesis 12:4, God called Abraham when he was 75 years. This event took place in year 2023 since Adam (1948+75).
 Abraham responded by departing out of Haran. This is the beginning of old testament, the history of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, twelve tribes, their sojourning in Canaan, Egypt, Moses, conquer of Canaan under Joshua, 12 judges, Saul, David, Solomon, kings
 of Israel and Judah, ..... unto Jesus.




Let's convert year 2023 into BC.




1444 BC = 2538 from Adam. 2538 - 2023= 515 years. Adding 515 years to 1444 BC, we have 1959 BC as the year Abraham departed out of Haran.
 1959 BC is the year old testament began.




Jesus was crucified in 32 AD. 32 AD is the end of old testament, 32 AD is also the beginning of new testament.




Between 1959 BC and 32 AD, there were 1990 years ( 1959 + 32 -1). The length of old testament is 1990 years. If God places an equal period
 for new testament era, then 2022 is the end of new testament era ( 1990 + 32 AD ).




1959 BC Abraham departed out of Haran, beginning of old testament------------1990 years -----------32 AD Jesus' crucifixion, end of old testament,
 beginning of new testament-------1990 years ----------2022 AD, end of new testament era. End of church era. God unleashes 7 years tribulation to find who's worthy to enter the millennium kingdom, including the Jews.




As we can see, if God calls the church home in 2022, and puts an end to Age of Grace in 2022, then God does place an equal period for the
 old testament era and new testament era. They both are 1990 years.
