THE BIBLICAL TIMELINE

RANDOM NUMBERS

On February 23 and February 25 we showed a total of 27 + 31 = 58 numbers that factor into significant integers: 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 11, 12, 13, 17, 23, 37, 40, and 43. On the last post, February 28, we codified the data. We now factor 99 random numbers between 17 and 13000 and see how many times we get our significant numbers. The integers below were generated and factored on Sunday, March 1, 2009 at 8:20 A.M. (CST) . Those numbers underlined denotes those that factor into our significant integers.

Below are the only integers, N, that factored into our significant numbers.

We have only about 16% or sixteen out of 99 numbers that factor into our significant integers. The highest number is 23; we have no factors of 37, 40 and 43. We have mostly the lower numbers: 2 and 3 and 5, which is what we'd expect. Suppose we have a grab bag full of integers and we blindly reach in and grab one (denote as N). Since every other number is divisible by n = 2, we'd have a 50% chance that our number N is divisible by 2. Since every third number is divisible by n = 3, we have a 33% chance that our number N is divisible by 3. So for any number N, the higher the significant number n, the less chance we have that n will divide N. Therefore we aren't surprised not to have drawn any numbers divisible by our significant numbers n where n = 37, 40, or 43.

We can compare the above 99 numbers to 33 poker games with three players represented by the three columns. Player number 1, (the first column) had only two winning hands. Player number 2 (second column) had six winning hands. Player number 3 (third column) had eight winning hands (2 + 6 + 8 = 16) and went home the winner. But out of these 33 games they together only had 16 winning hands and 83 losing hands.

Suppose now that the next night they play 57 games. Everyone calls player number 3 V.I. for village idiot. What if out of these 57 games V.I. pulls 57 winning hands. The previous night they together pulled a total of 16 winning hands out of 33 games and 99 hands. Suppose V.I. pulls a 43 for 19% of the deals, a 37 for 15% of the deals and a 23 for 20% of the deals (see February 28). The previous night the numbers 37 and 43 never even showed up in 99 hands.  How long would it take player number 1 and number 2 to suspect that V.I. only wants everyone to think he's an idiot? By the same token how long does it take before we suspect those 57 numbers listed on February 28 were rigged?

So who rigged those fifty-seven numbers? Those who wrote the Bible? That would mean they had to arrange events and define the "correct" number of years between them. Thus they would have favored what adds up rather than what's historically correct. But as of this writing, I know of only one discrepancy between Scripture and the secular dating: the year B.C. 722 and the Biblical one: B.C. 709 for the Assyrian destruction of Israel.

No one knew the timeline until the latter half of the last century. How could anyone have rigged those numbers if they didn't know what they were? What's that? I rigged them? Here, search me: Contents: Part 2. See if I didn't get them straight out of the Bible.

We complete Part three on Saturday, March 4. 

DETERMINING THE DATES

On February 23 and February 25 we showed that given certain dates, a and b on our calendar, the inclusive or exclusive number of years be- tween them factor into significant numbers too many times for coinci- dence to explain. Someone might look at these numbers and make the following counterargument.

From the five calendars we have 166 different dates:

Calendar #1: 27 dates
Calendar #2: 22 dates
Calendar #3: 40 dates
Calendar #4: 49 dates
Calendar #5: 28 dates
Total:          166 dates

Suppose a and b denote dates on our five calendars. We let
N = {c_i| c_i = |a – b| or c_i = |a – b| – 1 if a < 0 and b > 0 or c_i = |a – b| + 1, 1 ≤ i ≤ |N|}. In other words c_i € N is a number of years (inclusive or exclusive) between dates a and b on our five calendars. We let |N| be the number of elements in N. We have a total of 166 dates. Therefore
|N|/2 ≤ (166 x 165)/2 = 13695.ⁱ Since we include exclusive years as well as inclusive we can set |N| ≤ 27390. So we have |N| ≤ 27390 numbers from which to pick ones evenly divisible by significant numbers. Clearly out of |N| ≤ 27390 intervals of years we would expect to find more than sufficient numbers c_i such that c_i is divisible only by our significant in- tegers.

The flaw in the above argument lies in the fact that context and factori- zation must determine the date b in relation to a. We couldn't let a = 1988 and b equal the year of some Hebrew judge or king. The context wouldn't allow it. Suppose c_i = |a – b| and c_i is evenly divisible by significant num- bers. Then not only do the numbers a and b have to relate to each other in some meaningful way but the factorization of c_i = |a – b| must make sense and complement the context.

For example we couldn't use a = -11013 and b = -10883, the year Adam's patriarchal period ends. Firstly we have no context that relates b to a. After 130 years Eve gave birth to Seth, who could carry on the patri- archal linage. But so what? Nothing relates to that. It's true that
|-11013 – (-10883)| = 130 = 13 x 10 and 13 and 10 are significant num- bers. But the number 13 denotes the second coming of Christ near the end of the world, not after only 130 years of the earth's existence. So secondly the factorization of c_i = |a – b| must complement the context. Therefore to say we have |N| ≤ 27390 numbers to choose from is not true.

In all 57 entries on February 23 and February 25 we first justified dates a and b before determining c_i. For example on our first entry on February 23 we had a = -11013 and b = 1988 as the beginning of the great tribula- tion. 1988 relates to -11013 in determining the earth's age at the end of the churches and its related events. We know that at the beginning of the great tribulation God tests us to see who will abandon the congregations. So we'd expect to find the number 40. Also God comes into the churches as the judge, so we'd expect the number 13. Those with the word of God (2) who remain in the churches face damnation. So we expect the number 5 or 23 or 37 or 43. So we now have reason to look at |-11013 – 1988| – 1 = 13000. That 13000 = 13 x 5^2 x 40 should come as no surprise. Our first entry is valid, as are all the others. But simply choosing intervals of years that factor favorably won't explain our 57 entries.

CONCLUSION

In this last and final post we sum up arguments for Divinity and our time- line. On February 11 we looked at Israel as the fig tree. Matthew 24:32 predicts Israel's reemergence as a viable nation: ³²Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:

We saw that summer is the time of harvest and begins on September 7, 1994 (see Jeremiah 8:20; also February 2 and February 11). Nowhere else do we read of a conquered and dispersed peoples again becoming a na- tion in their own homeland almost 2000 years later. But Israel did in 1948 despite the Arab world trying to eliminate them. Luke 13:6-9, and Mark 13 also predicts this reunification. Matthew 21:19 prophesizes the Jews would forever reject Christ. To this day Israel still refuses to admit Jesus as one of theirs, despite the impact He as a Jew had on the world. Since Israel again became a nation in 1948, no one can claim the prophecy of the fig tree was written after the fact.

On June 16, 2008 we looked at Daniel 8 and his vision: ¹In the third year of the reign of king Belshazzar around B.C. 550. We read that Media and Persia would conquer Babylon eleven years later and in two hundred years Alexander the Great would take Media and Persia: ⁵…an he goat (Alexander the Great) came from the west…and ⁷…smote the ram, and brake his two horns: and there was no power in the ram to stand before him… ²¹…the rough goat is the king of Grecia: and the great horn… be- tween his eyes is the first king. God also prophesizes Alexander the Great in Daniel 10: ²⁰ Then said he, Knowest thou wherefore I come unto thee? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia: and when I am gone forth, lo, the prince of Grecia shall come. Indeed in B.C. 330 Alex- ander took over Persia as prophesied two hundred years before. Of course those who don't want to believe will argue that Daniel was written after the fact.

On January 28 we looked at the 1290 days of Daniel 12:11, which took us from B.C. 1877—when Jacob had to leave Canaan and go into Egypt—to B.C. 587—when the Jews had to leave Judah and go into Babylon. Of course Daniel in Babylon wrote the 1290 days after the fact, but he couldn't have known when Jacob left the land of Canaan; so never on his own could he have subtracted 587 from 1877 to come up with the 1290.

On January 31 we saw that double the 1290 days of Daniel 12:11 brought us from B.C. 587 to A.D. 1994, but we didn't know the day or month. On February 2 the 2300 days (6.3 years) of Daniel 8:13-14 brought us back to 1988. We guessed correctly that the church age must end on May 21, 1988, the day before Pentecost. So we added the 2300 days of Daniel 8:14 to May 21, 1988 and landed on September 6, 1994, which turned out to be 1 Tishri 5755. From Leviticus 23:24 we know 1 Tishri is a Jubilee day, a proclamation of the Gospel and freedom from bondage to sin. We'd already determined from verses like Revelation 8:1 that from May 21, 1988 to September 6, 1994 virtually no one became saved, but on 1 Tishri 5755, outside of the churches, God began saving the great multi- tude of Revelation 7:9, 14. We'd determined September 6, 1994 from the 2300 days of Daniel 8:14—written before anyone knew anything about the church age or the period afterwards. That the 2300 days lands on 1 Tishri 5755 defies human meddling. No one back in the time of Daniel could have known anything about A.D. 1994.

On January 12 we determined the date of the first Pentecost as May 21, 33 and that Christ's baptism fell somewhere in the fall of A.D. 29. On January 26 we picked 1 Tishri 3790 (September 25, 29) as the most likely date because of its spiritual significance. We then saw that from Septem- ber 25, 29 to May 21, 33 is exactly 1335 days. We consulted Daniel 12:12 that prophesizes 1335 days for Christ's ministry, almost 600 years before A.D. 33. No one knew about this ministry at the writing of Daniel, much less how long it would last.

On May 21, 2011 we have the rapture, when God shuts the door on the unsaved. When we go to our calendar converter and plug in May 21, 2011, we get 21 May 2011 corresponds to 17 Iyar (the 2^nd Hebrew month), 5771. In Genesis 7: ¹¹In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened…. ¹⁶And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in.

God shuts the door on the unsaved in B.C. 4990 and A.D. 2011 on the 2^nd month and the 17^th day of the Noachian and Hebrew calendars re- spectively. Those that don't want to accept Scripture can write that off as coincidence; but the probability is more than 1 to 360.

Genesis 7:24 has the great flood lasting 150 days, or five months on the Noachian calendar. The flood represented judgment, as does the five month period of Revelation 9:5, 10, after the Rapture on May 21, 2011. Thus we add five months to May 21, 2011 and land on October 21. We now go to our calendar converter  and plug in October 21, 2011. We get 21 October 2011 corresponds to 23 Tishrei, 5772. As we'd determined on February 9, Tishri 23 is the last day of the feast of tabernacles in ancient Israel and the dedication of Solomon's temple, which points to the harvest of the true believers on May 21, 2011 (according to Revelation 11:11-12). Thus we'd expect 23 Tishri 5772 as the end of the world. But it was only after we derived October 21, 2011 independently from anything concerning the feast of tabernacles, did we discover that the date falls on 23 Tishri of the Hebrew calendar. But no one knew anything about the last five months of the earth's existence until after A.D. 2000; and John wrote the book of Revelation circa A.D. 95. He couldn't have known anything about May 21, 2011 as the date to add to the five months; yet such addition lands us on the last day of the feast of tabernacles. 

Since October 1, 2008 we found we could calculate Biblical dates of sig- nificant events and that the years between them factor into numbers that defy human authorship. We concluded on March 2 that the numbers de- rived and tabulated on February 28 must have been rigged in order to fac- tor as they did on February 23 and February 25. A few of them could have been written off as coincidence—but not all 58 of them. Human authors could not have rigged the numbers because they didn't even know what they were (see March 5).

In Acts 1 the Bible confirms that we wouldn't know the end dating until after the church age: ⁶ When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the king- dom to Israel? Christ ignores the import of the question and prophesizes: ⁷…It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.

Also in Daniel 12 God prophesizes that no one would know the end times until the end. ⁸And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things? ⁹And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.

Isaiah 29 defines a book that is sealed as indecipherable: ¹¹And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I cannot; for it is sealed:¹²And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned.

If no one can come up with another explanation for these numbers on February 23 and 25 then Divinity stands alone and unchallenged. God contrived the dating as He did so that we could know it's authentic and our calculations are correct. I think we'd better start begging God for mercy before May 21, 2011 because by then it's too late. Revelation 14:7 is most appropriate for our time ⁷…Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters. That hour of…judgment is now here and ticking away.

Anyone wanting a second analysis of this timeline can contact the Family Radio Ministry in Oakland and request a free copy of the booklet, We Are Almost There, and the book Time Has an End, both books written by Harold Camping. The former booklet is the latest and the most accurate. Anyone wanting more information on the end of the church age can re- quest the book, The End of the Church Age and After and the booklet, Wheat and Tares, both books by the same author.

I'll continue to publish supplements to my previous work and date them the same as the post they refer to plus one day; for example the supple- ment to this post, dated March 4, is March 5). For links to these posts consult the Pages and click, Supplements.

 For now the evidence for Divinity is in; let the jury decide. As for me I'm convinced that the Bible is the Word of God.

END TIME EVENTS

On March 4 we claimed that until recently no one knew the timeline; therefore no one could have rigged the dates to conform as they did on February 23 & 25. Daniel 12:8-9 predicts that we wouldn't know these events until the time of the end: Daniel asks, ⁸…O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things? ⁹And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.

As we saw on March 4, Isaiah 29 defines a sealed book (the Bible) as indecipherable: ¹¹And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I cannot; for it is sealed:¹²And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned.

We now wish to show that God did indeed write about certain events and, though they've been in Scripture for two thousand years, we didn't know about them until after they occurred.

As we've shown in Part 3, we live at the end of time, as of this writing only two years from Doomsday on May 21, 2011 (see February 4). Therefore we should now know what God has hidden from us. We read of the seals coming off in Relation 6, but first we backup to Revelation 5: ¹…I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. ²And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?

That the Book is written within and on the backside means nothing more can be added. The Bible is complete and has been for two thousand years.  But no one except Christ can open the seals of the book: ³And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon. However ⁵…one of the elders saith…the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David (Christ), hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.

In Revelation 6 Christ opens one of the seals: ¹…when the Lamb opened one of the seals… ²…I saw…a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. Here Christ on the white horse will conquer by saving the elect within the congregations during the church age. Therefore prior to the Great Tribulation, with the ¹…four angels…on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth…(see June 28 & July 12), God saves the ⁴ …hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel (within the churches; see June 30).

Continuing with the second seal in Revelation 6: ³And when he had opened the second seal…⁴…there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.

Revelation 6:3-4 refers to Satan during the church age who takes away peace (salvation) from the earth. They kill one another via unsaved church leaders who bring false gospels (the great sword) into the congre- gations (see July 9). They also silence the true believers who advocate the Bible according to John 16: ²They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.

Only within the last ten to fifteen years has anybody understood John 16:2 and has became aware that Satan had been infiltrating the congre- gations with tares (unsaved pastors and church leaders; see July 9). Thus only recently has this second seal been removed.

Continuing with the third seal in Revelation 6: ⁵And when he had opened the third seal…I beheld…a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand. ⁶And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.

In Matthew 20:1-16 the head (Christ) of the vineyard (the churches; see June 25) sends labors into the field (the world) to work for a penny a day. The wheat, barley, oil and…wine represent the elect in the churches. God with the pair of balances separates the wheat from the tares (the non elect: see July 7). In Daniel 5 Daniel tells Belshazzar, ²⁷TEKEL; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting. In Job 31 Job declares, ⁶Let me be weighed in an even balance, that God may know mine integ- rity.

Continuing with the fourth seal in Revelation 6: ⁷And when he had opened the fourth seal… ⁸…I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

Revelation 6:7-8 concerns the great tribulation when only Hell (the grave) and spiritual Death exists inside the churches (see July 23). The sword, the Bible, condemns those remaining in the churches to this spiritual death. Those in the congregations hunger for the Word of God, but have only the beasts of the earth (church leaders) with false gospels (see Au- gust 6).

Continuing with the fifth seal in Revelation 6: ⁹And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: ¹⁰And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? ¹¹And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.

Revelation 7:9-17 refers to those now in the white robes of Revelation 6:11, who ¹⁴…came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. The little season of Rev- elation 6:11 refers to the great tribulation as used in Revelation 20:3. For the church age Christ ³…cast him (Satan) into the bottomless pit…till the thousand years (the church age) should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season (i.e., for the 23 years of great tribulation; see August 20 and January 31). 

Continuing with the sixth seal in Revelation 6: ¹²And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake (Judg- ment Day has arrived); and the sun (Christ) became black as sackcloth of hair (i.e., Christ no longer saves anyone), and the moon (The Gospel) be- came as blood (Scripture now only condemns rather than saves); ¹³And the stars of heaven (those in the churches) fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. ¹⁴And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together (The Gos- pel is no more); and every mountain and island (nations and kingdoms of the world) were moved out of their places. ¹⁵And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; ¹⁶And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: ¹⁷ For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? In Revelation 6:15-17 these men try to hide in what they had on earth before judgment day. See February 7 for the last five months of the world's existence.

We have to skip ahead to Revelation 8:1 to get to the seventh seal, which backtracks to the beginning of the great tribulation: ¹And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour This half hour of silence refers to the first 2300 days of the great tribulation (see August 9 and February 2). 

The book had seven seals (Revelation 5:1) and ³...no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon. (Revelation 5). Christ removes the seventh seal at the be- ginning of the great tribulation (Revelation 8:1). Therefore we could fig- ure out the timeline no sooner than May 21, 1988; i.e., at the end of the church age. Acts 1:7 verifies this fact: Christ tells the apostles, ...it is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.  So even though Scripture has remained the same book, we couldn't understand much of it until the prophecy of Daniel 12:8-9 fulfilled itself: ⁸…O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things? ⁹And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.
