I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on what Pastor Mark Biltz has been putting out on his YT channel. I know we have been through so many "high watch" times that it becomes wearying, but I also know we must not give up. If what Mark shows is true, then in about five to six weeks, we will have a very high watch time. For myself, I am anxious, but ready. For those that would argue, 'well this has to happen first, or that has to happen first', I say, does it really? God will do things according to His will.

I am wondering about the meaning of being on "high watch". We will not miss the Rapture if we are not looking up to the Heavens in the very moment Jesus comes to get us.
I'd rather be found occupied with the work He gave us to do.
That being said, in a purely statistical sense the likelihood of the Rapture increases with each passing day, approaching 100%, and now 2022 is already very high. 2023 will be even higher.
Is it a Jubilee? Maybe. But then again, the Jubilee year must occur AFTER the Sabbath year, regardless if we are counting 49 year or 50 year cycles (in the former case it would overlap with the first year of the new cycle), so what does that leave us with? Sabbath year 2021-2022 and Jubilee 2022-23 I would think. Will the Rapture be on the beginning or the end of a Jubilee year? I don't know.
So, still a lot of unknowns in the equations which could combine to make it 1, 2, 3, 4 years later. Therefore, I think we are on continual "high watch", like the wise manager:
On the other hand, should we watch *more* in autumn? What would that mean? Sin less? Work harder? Evangelize more? Be lazier in the rest of the year? I don't think that's a very good model to base a Christian life on. The only practical application I can think of is to make even surer that my post-Rapture-left-behind documents are definitely easy to be found (like, put them on a desk).

Funny thing, stormyknight, someone shared that exact video with me and it partly inspired me to review the evidence in a new article and video. As it stands, I think the evidence a new seven-year cycle begins this fall is nearly 100%, although a few detractors suggest the Shmita year is actually a year too early, so that a new seven-year cycle would actually begin in one year, next fall. I think Biltz is spot-on and I review the evidence below. His claim that this fall also begins a jubilee is a bit more questionable. It's possible if Ezekiel's jubilee mentioned in Ezek. 40:1 occurred on Tishri 10 of 576 BC. That's the exact date I had a few weeks ago. After further review I think the next jubilee is actually 2029-2030, which I discuss. www.unsealed.org/2022/08/monumental-change-could-be-coming.html

firefrorefiddle , I get what you mean about "high watch" times, that's why I put in quotes to begin with. To me, those times are like a 'nudge nudge, hey pay attention' times. But, we're human, we get complacent. Even when we try our best to be diligent in our prayers. We know from other factions and congregations that if a person just stands in place and waits for our Lord, things fall apart and the persons life turns upside down. We know we have to continue living, but in doing so, life still gets in the way or distracts us from time to time. So calling attention to a "high watch" time is not a bad thing in my opinion. Gary , I have watched more than a few videos on calendar counting, as I'm sure you have as well. How can we be 100% sure? I don't quite accept that the rapture could be 'any minute', but that it will most likely coincide with the fall appointed times, but the hour and the day will not be known until it happens. I'm going to watch your video tonight, as I don't have time right now. I just wanted to shoot this out.

Gary when I scrolled down to see your post I noticed in the video (before playing it) the scene of the people with something happening around them is a car with NJ license plates. Was this from a movie or did something happen here in the Garden state that I didnt hear about

I'm anxious too. I'm paranoid for this September since January 2019. Where I count the 1290, the 1335 expires in September. 2022 is a seventh year. I don't really know that it means anything. 1,994 7 + -------------------------- 2,001 = 7 + -------------------------- 2,008 = 7 + -------------------------- 2,015 = 7 + -------------------------- 2,022 = 7 + -------------------------- 2,029 = 7 + -------------------------- 2,036 = 7 + -------------------------- 2,043 = 2043 is the Jubilee, going back to the week where Jesus said: "I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.
And the Artaxerxes decree in 457BC.
So it's not long to wait for sure. (goosebumps)

I'm going to watch your video tonight, as I don't have time right now. I just wanted to shoot this out. Great question! "Nearly" is the key word there. I think in my first video I may have said something to the effect of 90 or 95% certain. To be clear: that's not certainty that the rapture is this year, just near-certainty that a new seven-year cycle begins. I had heard many like Cahn and Biltz mention the Shmitas, but I had never heard of anyone exhaustively comparing to see if the modern Shmitas line up with the ancient Shmitas. To summarize, here is what we know with certainty (i.e., historically factual): 1. Israel keeps the Shmita cycles today. Not every Israeli mind you, but many, including the orthodox communities. The Israeli High Court also handed down a nationwide Shmita ruling in 2007. 2. The first Shmita observed since Israel became a nation again was in 1951-1952. 3. The first Shmita observed since the Jews started returning to the land was in 1888-1889. 4. Leviticus 25 says to begin counting the Shmitas and Jubilee cycles "when you enter the land." This would mean the next Jubilee would be 2029-2030. 5. We know with certainty when nearly a dozen historic Shmitas were kept in the first few centuries AD and the last few centuries BC because we have records. Some of these include 68-69 AD, 38-37 BC, 132-133 AD, etc. These perfectly align with Israel's modern Shmita observance* *6. A scholar named Wacholder reevaluated the data and argued that all these historic Shmitas were misinterpreted and actually occurred a year later (e.g., the 68-69 Shmita would have been 69-70, etc). From what I've seen, his arguments seem to be mistaken, so the original reckoning seems to be correct (links below demonstrate). So in summary: we can know with 100% certainty that the biblical Shmita year is either this year or next, which means a new seven-year cycle begins either next month or one year from next month, but I think the evidence is more compelling for next month. www.pickle-publishing.com/papers/sabbatical-years.htmbiblearchaeology.org/abr-projects-main/the-daniel-9-24-27-project-2/4760-daniel-9-24-27-the-sixty-ninth-and-seventieth-weeks

davewatchman , I don't know what it means either, but it's good to see you Dave! Good to see you too. Miss you too.
You guys haven't changed a bit.
I don't think Biltz knows anything. It's just like the annual feast day "high watch" video. All he's got is the 2022 Shmita.
I don't know that that means anything.
But after posting this:
1,994
7 + -------------------------- 2,001 =
7 + -------------------------- 2,008 =
7 + -------------------------- 2,015 =
7 + -------------------------- 2,022 =
7 + -------------------------- 2,029 =
7 + -------------------------- 2,036 =
7 + -------------------------- 2,043 =
2043 is the Jubilee, going back to the week where Jesus said: "I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.
And the Artaxerxes decree in 457BC.
I noticed it lines up with the two trips of Apophis in 2029 and 2036.
I think that the materials we covered here already are saying it's happening now.
The cries from these stones are reaching their crescendo now:
Peaceful Sabbath.

I was finally able to watch your video tonight, Gary , Impressive work, indeed! I'm in awe of your perseverance to put all that together. And, like you, I am amazed when certain year cycles coincide with certain events, repeatedly even. davewatchman , I have to say, my anxiousness has been a building 'thrilled' anxiousness. Do you all remember the months and years just before the Rev. 12 sign? 9/23 was showing up everywhere. At first no one seemed to notice, but then it got more obvious where Hollywood actually made a movie, "23". And then the actual sign was found to be coming. I'm not sure who discovered it, but I remember Scotty Clarke doing extensive videos on it. Anyway, it seems to be happening again. My wife and I were just talking about it the other day and how I wished I'd saved all those videos of the different instances of 9/23, and then, just today, the guy over at God's Roadmap to the End put out a new video called "Predictive Programming" where he shows both the old and new instances of 9/23 showing up. It's giving me goosebumps, I can tell you that! I really hope to see you all very soon!

I didn't watch much of the God's Roadmap to the End video. Even though I'm a bit of a number tard, it should be right up my alley. But there's lots of movies, we can probably find 9/23 all over the place. And if Satan did know anything, and then let that news filter down to his people, I don't want to find it that way.
I like reading the comments from the video instead: These guys might be right. There's multiple "timelines" in the Bible adding up to this time now. witness1 called it her "dual 70 week theory". We're already in the "final 7 year clock". Between now and the completion of 2024/2025, it's going to all take place.
From old witness1, this man sealed the deal:
And then he died of a heart attack the month after doing it.

Well, I think there is the rub. If Satan knew the rapture was going to happen on Sept. 23, why would he broadcast it like that? There is nothing he could do about it anyway. I'd think he would do everything he could to hide it. Having said that, I do believe Satan has a lot of control over what comes out of Hollywood and the media, but God Himself has control over everything and if He wants to place the number 9 and 23 in our visual media, He will. I believe He did it before the Rev. 12 sign to get His people's attention that 'something' is going to happen on that date. And something did happen. And if He's doing it again with such short notice, something else is going to happen on that date. It doesn't mean it will be the rapture. By no means do I believe that. But I do believe something is going to happen. Things are happening so quickly now, aren't they? Isn't Rosh Hoshanah just two days later? Not that that means anything. But maybe He's making sure we are awake when September ends!
As for being a number tard, I'm turning into one, davewatchman ,. For me, math/numbers is one of the strongest proofs of God's existence. All of nature abides by the laws of math. The golden ration in a sunflower, or the fractal pattern of a seashore. But it takes a mind to understand those laws, so it took a mind, The Mind of God, to create those laws. "But there is a spirit in a man, the breath of the Almighty, that gives him understanding." Job 32:8 Being created in His image, we are able to understand the math that the universe abides by. Can a migrating bird do that? or an ant? Rhetorical questions, but I'm sure you get my point.
I think about these things and I watch what others present and post on YT and similar places, not being able to take the time myself. But I ask questions and posit ideas hoping that others will take them and perhaps search them out or incorporate them into their own research. I know some of my ideas may be silly or way off, but everything needs to be considered and I hope maybe my dumb questions will spark someone else's smart idea.

Thank you my friend! I've also noticed that about 9/23. There has been so much programming around that date. I believe 9/23/2015 was also significant and Robert Breaker did a video on that years ago. There's also Little Shop of Horrors based on September 23. 9/23–28 are very high watch for me. Also I suppose Yom Kippur given the possibility Biltz and others have suggested that the coming Jewish year doubles as the jubilee (they are basing this on Ezekiel's jubilee in Ezek. 40:1 and the historic Shmita cycles).
