PART 1
Well, I’ve been scribbling on my white board again and came up with another rapture theory that I thought was worth tossing out there as a possibility. This theory once again hinges around the number 153, it’s connection to 17 & 3, and various scriptural verses pertaining to the escape of the Body of Christ, before the partial blindness of Israel is lifted; possibly both figuratively and this time also physically! Did that peak your interest?
I’m going to start with the numbers. If you haven’t seen the below linked website before, please check it out really quick and pay careful attention to the little diagram at the bottom that lists 3 sets of 7 weeks each. As is shown, the 3rd day of the 3rd 7 day week, is also the 17th day of the month. This study has more depth than most are willing to dig into, but the bottom line is that 3 & 17 seem entwined with the value of 153 and resurrection, which I’ll show below has a hidden scriptural link to the “fulness of the gentiles” and therefore the “partial blindness” being removed from Israel.
www.theopenscroll.com/number17and153.htm
A few fun # facts:
• 17 is the 7th prime number
• 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10+11+12+13+14+15+16+17=153
• 3 * 3 * 17 = 153
• “With a few exceptions like 370, 371 and 407 the third part of all numbers transforms to 153.” (concept explained in the above link for details on this odd algorithm, which the Wikipedia for the number 153 also shows)
• A Tetrahedron of 17 rows equals the triangle number of 969, which was the age of Methuselah when he died. In 3D this looks like a triangle.
• An equilateral triangle of 17 rows equals the triangle number 153. In 2D this looks like a triangle.
• Jesus 1st miracle transformed water into wine, where six water pots contained 2-3 ferkins each; avg 2.5 * 6 =15 ferkins; convert to gallons 15 * 10.2 = 153 gallons. If the pots were filled to the brim and you convert to the British equivalent of a gallon, one also gets 153.
• Jesus last miracle in John 21:10-11 involved 153 fish being caught in the net that was not broken, which had 7 disciples in the boat.
(Note: Jesus mentioned his time had not yet come before the water to wine miracle, and the great catch of 153 fish was after he cried out, "It is finished" on the cross. Therefore, this may indicate that these miracles hint at the mystery to come; specifically the formation of the Body of Christ. The fish had to be caught & brought up into the boat and the wine was transformed, which mirrors with harpazo & we shall be changed.) Also, in John 2:1, we find out that the changing of water to wine happened on "the 3rd day."
Check out this quick video for a visual of the triangle referenced bullet points.
I also am fascinated with the statement, “A hypercube cut along 17 faces unfolds into a three-dimensional cross. There are exactly 17 two-dimensional space (plane symmetry) groups.” I think this video shows that concept rather well.
Another fun number fact is that 7 * 153 equals 1071; when assigning each letter its numeric value and getting the sum for each word, we see 1071 equaling the same value as Joint-Heirs, White Robes, Sinless, and phrases such as “the righteous shall inherit the land,” and “but Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.”
www.biblewheel.com/GR/GR_1071.php
I am particularly fond of Joint-Heirs found in…
Romans 8:17 – “And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.”
And also fond of White Robes …
Revelations 6:11 – “And 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."
One might ask, why are these words so rapture related? Well, as seen above in Romans 8:17 the joint-heirs with Christ will be glorified together with him. Sounds like the rapture to me. Also, the white robes seem to be intertwined with receiving eternal glorified bodies, after our earthly tabernacles are dissolved and that ties into the rapture because we’ll receive those bodies during the rapture.
2 Corinthians 5:1-2
5 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. 2 For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:
While on the topic of 153, here’s a bonus verse that has 1, 5:3 built right into it and seems linked to the kick off of tribulation.
1 Thessalonians 5:3 - For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
I realize I must move on to something less boring quickly, but let me just touch on one last concept, which I eluded to earlier, which was the statement saying there is “a hidden scriptural link to the “fulness of the gentiles” and the “partial blindness” being removed from Israel.” We’ve looked at how the # 3 & 17 connect with 153, but did you know that John 21:11 and Romans 11:25 are connected by the number 17? Here’s their connection. Romans 11:25’s 17th word is G4457 (porosis / blindness) and John 21:11’s 17th word is G5118 (tosoutos/ so). These two verses contain the 1st occurence of each of these words in the Bible, and have a single word value of 2190. I think that’s quite interesting in light of the context of those verses.
John 21:11 – Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, an hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the net broken.
Romans 11:25 – For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
I think it’s also worth noting that there are 10 Bible verses with phrases that sum to a text value of 2190. Chronologically, the first verse with this sum gives a tie in to the “as in the days of Noah.”
Matthew 24:37 – But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
… and that 1st 2190 valued verse is Genesis 7:18.
Genesis 7:18 – And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters.
The last verse with a total value of 2190 is Ezekiel 34:28.
Ezekiel 34:28 – And they shall no more be a prey to the heathen, neither shall the beast of the land devour them; but they shall dwell safely, and none shall make them afraid.
The dwelling in safety makes me think of the secret chambers mentioned in Isaiah 26:20.
Isaiah 26:20-21 Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast. For, behold, the Lord cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.
Another interesting verse summing to 2190 (out of the only 10 verses with this sum in the Bible) is Psalms 36:8.
Psalms 36:8 – They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.
I think it’s more than safe to assume that the Body of Christ will likewise be abundantly satisfied in their dwellings with the Lord after being raptured and getting to drink from the river of life.
Here’s a quick link showing all of the 2190 valued words and verses that I mentioned above.
www.biblewheel.com/GR/GR_Database.php?SearchBy_Gematria=2190
The point of all of this was to show there seems to be numbers that God has connected in unique and rather fascinating ways to concepts and verses pertaining to the rapture. Pointing back to the first linked study on 153, consider the links it has to 3 & 17.
Now let’s get to the fun part and take a look at Adar 29th/Nisan 1st, which is the wrap up of the biblical year and coincides with March 17th of this current and most likely 120th jubilee year (depending on ones time zone).
Exodus 24:16-17
16 And the glory of the Lord abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days: and the seventh day he called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud.
17 And the sight of the glory of the Lord was like devouring fire on the top of the mount in the eyes of the children of Israel.
PART 2
I would like to propose that the answers to the following questions may reveal that the coming transition between Adar 29th/Nisan 1st is possibly the maximum limit that the Body of Christ can continue to remain on earth, before being raptured.
Do the 7 days of creation outline a pattern for things to come? (Yes)
I am no theologian, so this is going to be a high-level review of these concepts, but let's start by considering the 7 days of creation. Man was formed on day six. Six is the number of man. God rested on the 7th day. Since a day is to the Lord as a thousand years, many have postulated that the 7 days of creation may mirror with God's plan for the earth. The general idea is that man's dispensations cover the first 6,000 years and then God will setup his kingdom to come, for the 1,000 years after the tribulation, until Satan is then unbound from hell to once again deceive the world, before he and those who join him, are ultimately cast into the lake of fire forever. Therefore, the 7th day is reflective of us entering into his rest (God rested on the 7th day) during his kingdom of peace, where even the lion and lamb will play together. Mathematically, 7,000 total years equates to 140 jubilees, where the 120th would complete the 6,000th year.
Will God let his spirit strive with man for more than 120 jubilees? (Not likely)
Genesis 6:3 And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.
torahbelievers.wordpress.com/2014/04/12/the-120-years-of-genesis-63-as-an-120-jubilees-prophecy/#ampshare=https://torahbelievers.wordpress.com/2014/04/12/the-120-years-of-genesis-63-as-an-120-jubilees-prophecy/
Does big events in Israel reveal the jubilee cycle? (Yes)
The below hyperlinked video mentions current Christians being "spiritual Israel" and I am opposed to that line of thought because of its failure to properly distinguishing between God's purpose with Israel and the mystery kept secret since the world began, but nevertheless, check out the short video and you'll get a quick recap of why Tishri 1st is not the calendar that God is using for a jubilee cycle.
Nisan 1st begins the biblical new year, which is also defined in the Bible, in the book of Esther, and the historical events being 50 years apart suggestions those events occurred in jubilee years. I'll try and find some charts that show this later when I have more time, but they're posted all over the internet, if one looks. The important point is that those charts pointing to the year 2017 are slightly flawed because they are Gregorian based, rather than being based on God's biblical calendar, which doesn't end until Nisan 1st. Israel's major events happening in the spring are why this idea has been deduced as correct.
Esther 3:7 In the first month, that is, the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of king Ahasuerus, they cast Pur, that is, the lot, before Haman from day to day, and from month to month, to the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar.
I can never decide which calendar or time zone to consider most accurate, but my Microsoft Outlook calendar, after adding in Hebrew lunar months, lists 3/17/18 as Nisan 1st for my timezone. If sunset is the true start of a Hebrew day, and if "in the twinkling of an eye" is a Jewish idiom for sunset, then maybe that moment between Adar 29th/Nisan 1st is the time we are to encourage one another is coming, as we watch for our blessed hope.
Are we about to finish the 120th Jubilee? (Yes - hopefully!)
I believe the fig tree bloomed on May 14th. 1948, when Israel was declared to be a nation again, which kicked off the generation that shall not pass away, until Jesus returns at his second coming after the 7 year tribulation. A generation is 70 years or up to 80 "if by reason of strength" If the tribulation kicks off at 70, then Israel is sure going to earn those extra 7 years past 70. Anyways, this coming May 14th will get Israel to their 70th birthday. At the very max, one would expect the second coming to be within 10 years after this coming 70th anniversary, which would land at the maximum 80 year mark or the year 2028.
Psalm 90:10 The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.
Matthew 24:32-34 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
However, as seen above there is evidence to suggest that we're currently in a jubilee year, so that next jubilee year wouldn't come around for another 50 years. Since the fig tree generation should not extend another 50 years, per the Psalm 90:10 definition of a generation, one might conclude that this biblical year is the last jubilee before the restrainer is removed after the 120th jubilee completes.
www.unsealed.org/2017/05/learn-parable-of-fig-tree.html?m=1
Who is the restrainer? (Holy Spirit)
www.google.com/amp/s/www.gotquestions.org/amp/restrainer.html
How long will the restrainer keep restraining? (Rapture)
If God's spirit (the Holy Spirit) is the restrainer, which will only strive with man for 120 jubilees, then maybe the rapture is the removal of the restrainer, which then lets the anti-Christ rise to power and begin his feeble attempt to destroy Israel.
2 Thessalonians 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
PART 3
Well, I'm out of time... a
realize a lot of the above concepts are not fleshed out, and I haven't
even gotten to the parallels between the Rapture and the Sign of Jonah
and the Crucifixion.
To be continued....
*insert dramatic cliff hanger here hehehe…. I will not leave you hanging completely, IMO the coolest concept is that when we're caught up to be the Lord in the air, we will be in the same sort of clouds that concealed God's glory on mount Sinai. Dark clouds, so thick that it could blot out the sun & many stars, cause a blindness to sweep over the earth, and most importantly, give Israel another "Sign of Jonah" as the Body of Christ emulates Jesus, the head of the body, by staying with God in the clouds for three days before returning to heaven, at the kick off of the tribulation on potentially March 20th. Also worth looking into is the many "third day" references to Israel. These could play into Nisan 3rd very well and yet may be a seperate idea than the 3rd day stuff dealing with the rapture. Might God be working in the Gregorian calendar for tge Body of Christ and the biblical calendar for the nation of Israel? I find tgis interesting not only because of the 3/17 stuff, but also because not every year do we see a 3 day gap between March 17th and "the 3rd day" of the biblical year (Nisan 3rd).
Well, I’ve been scribbling on my white board again and came up with another rapture theory that I thought was worth tossing out there as a possibility. This theory once again hinges around the number 153, it’s connection to 17 & 3, and various scriptural verses pertaining to the escape of the Body of Christ, before the partial blindness of Israel is lifted; possibly both figuratively and this time also physically!

• 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10+11+12+13+14+15+16+17=153

If God's spirit (the Holy Spirit) is the restrainer, which will only strive with man for 120 jubilees, then maybe the rapture is the removal of the restrainer, which then lets the anti-Christ rise to power and begin his feeble attempt to destroy Israel.
2 Thessalonians 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
PART 3
Well, I'm out of time... a
realize a lot of the above concepts are not fleshed out, and I haven't
even gotten to the parallels between the Rapture and the Sign of Jonah
and the Crucifixion.
To be continued....
*insert dramatic cliff hanger here hehehe…. I will not leave you hanging completely, IMO the coolest concept is that when we're caught up to be the Lord in the air, we will be in the same sort of clouds that concealed God's glory on mount Sinai. Dark clouds, so thick that it could blot out the sun & many stars, cause a blindness to sweep over the earth, and most importantly, give Israel another "Sign of Jonah" as the Body of Christ emulates Jesus, the head of the body, by staying with God in the clouds for three days before returning to heaven, at the kick off of the tribulation on potentially March 20th. Also worth looking into is the many "third day" references to Israel. These could play into Nisan 3rd very well and yet may be a seperate idea than the 3rd day stuff dealing with the rapture. Might God be working in the Gregorian calendar for tge Body of Christ and the biblical calendar for the nation of Israel? I find tgis interesting not only because of the 3/17 stuff, but also because not every year do we see a 3 day gap between March 17th and "the 3rd day" of the biblical year (Nisan 3rd).
