The end of the world may be near, if a Christian numerologist is to be believed.
Is the Rapture finally here? One Christian numerologist says a biblical sign strongly suggests it.
David Meade tells the U.K.'s Daily Express newspaper that on April 23, the sun and moon will be in Virgo, as will Jupiter, which represents the Messiah.
For a certain branch of evangelical Christianity, Revelation 12:1–2 describes the beginning of what is known as the Rapture and the second coming of Christ.
The passage reads: “And a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of 12 stars. She was pregnant and was crying out in birth pains and the agony of giving birth.”
In the passage, the woman is represented as Virgo.
According to Meade, the alignment represents “the Lion of the tribe of Judah,” marking the Rapture, the belief that Christ will bring the faithful into paradise prior to a period of tribulation on earth that precedes the end of time.
Meade said he believes the so-called Planet X, which is also known as Nibiru, will appear above the sky on the April date, causing volcanic eruptions, tsunamis and earthquakes.
NASA repeatedly has said Planet X is a hoax.
Speaking to the Express, Meade described it as “a unique once-in-a-century sign exactly as depicted in the 12th chapter of Revelation. This is our time marker.”
However, author Jonathan Sarfati remains skeptical.
He told the Express: “As usual with any astrology (or Christian adaptations of it), one cherry-picks the stars that fit the desired conclusion.
“There is nothing to suggest that April 23 is a momentous date for biblical prophecy, and Christians need to be careful about being drawn into such sensationalist claims.
“We won’t know the day or the hour — so we should be prepared at all times!”
Hey, if you believe that, I will give you $20,000 right now for title to your house, car, furniture, etc. There's so little time left you can enjoy yourself quite a bit with $20,000 between now and the end, and you can't take that stuff with you. What a fool I am to be buying worthless goods.
Something wicked this way comes, but the date is unknown. What is known is that there will be no Rapture as wished for by so many. At the last Trump, in the twinkling of an eye, the living will be transformed into spirit to be with Christs army. There is not a secret return, then another.
I too see September of 2018 as being a possible time frame for interesting events, but it is just a guess like everyone else has.
THIS IS A TAG LINE...Exercising rights is only radical to two people, Tyrants and Slaves. Which are YOU? Our ignorance has driven us into slavery and we do not recognize it.
What a whacko. The sign in the clouds, as all world history textbooks attest to, occurred on Oct 27th 312 AD, when also Jesus returned and established His kingdom. A few years later the so-called "rapture" took place. I.e., in 325 AD St. Constantine sent his messengers with a trumpet and gathered all the elect of the Church together (to Nicea).
The Bible does NOT say that Jesus returns twice, nor does He need to because we (His followers) already rule the Earth. We just need to realize that and start doing a better job.
