bondservant I pulled up this video last night and didnt see that you had shared it with us. Man! What a great reminder Thad gives us! We should be beyond excited that a Sign so great was given us before the return of our Lord!!! He really shows us the end from the beginning! I needed a reminder and this one was extremely helpful as I know our redemption draweth nigh!!! (Now at the end of this video he mentions the Metonic Cycle. Given that the Astros were tied in their series at 1-1 I can determine that this was recorded on or about October 19 when the only series they were in was with NYY and tied 1-1 at that time. So my question is did he provide the message about the Metonic cycle and if so, can you share it? I am anxious to hear it and couldnt locate it.) Recommending this to kjs , barbiosheepgirl , Natalie , venge , @reepicheep , disciple4life , stormyknight , yardstick , Gary and anyone else who may be interested in how the one who created the stars and set them in their place has arranged this stellar clock for us to determine the TIMES!

This was a great message! A great reminder on why we should continue to encourage each other with the signs. I will post the Wednesday night study (11/6/2019) on the Metonic Cycle as soon as it goes up or feel free if you catch it before me. There is a slide that he shared with us that should really encourage us all. A side note yet related: I stumbled on some information that I thought was interesting. I am looking into the Qumran "Zadok" Calendars that were located among the Dead Sea Scrolls. There are about twenty different texts from Qumran which deal with a 364-day solar calendar. They are mainly very fragmentary, so the calendar is not completely understood. However, it is significantly different from the Babylonian lunar calendar which evolved into the 354-day Hebrew calendar as known today. The scrolls calendar divided the year into four quarters and recorded the feast days of the community. Feasts were fixed to the solar year and so occurred on different days from those indicated in the Babylonian-based calendar. Many of the texts are rosters of weekly shifts or courses of temple service for the twenty-four priestly families, known as Mishmarot. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qumran_calendrical_texts

mike , bondservant ,Pastor Thad definitely seems to be filled with the Holy Spirit. I subbed his channel and eagerly watch his videos. His sermon on the Eighth day was most encouraging! I look forward to watching this one, too.

You know Mike, when the stars were created, they sang together per Job 38. How do you think they did that? 😊 I find it funny you linked me to this thread. It’s the one topic I won’t touch.

It was intended to be funny since you won't touch it. I should've made that more clear.
Maybe we'll discuss something else offline as I don't want to derail the thread because of bad humor
For others who do think the stars are actually stars and not solely angelic please understand you weren't tagged or encouraged to watch as a 'joke'.

Are they, the stars written of in Scripture, not both literal stars and the angels of God?
"This is the mystery of the seven stars you saw in My right hand and of the seven golden lampstands: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands are the seven churches. " Rev. 1:20
"the moon and stars to govern the night. His loving devotion endures forever." Ps. 136:9
These are just two of the many examples of each. Not a big deal though. We don't have much time to be haggling over this issue. If Pastor Thad is correct, we have about five years to prepare for some very rough time ahead. We may be spared, but there are those around us who are going to need a rock to cling to.

venge , et all. I view the stars, sun and moon for the spiritual rep they are. I read scripture according to this and yet ALSO include the physical situation at hand. So my dear venge, if a tree is not a tree in the sence of one purchased at a nursery or burning in California, but something meaning more "behind the scenes" in heaven, then so do the elements in the skies above!!!!! The declaration, and I can not dismiss this verse in Genesis: 14Then God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night, and let them be for signs and for seasons and for days and years;We do know that pagan religions bastardized these elements, made them idols. That is no different than a person making their faith in their Christian religion works an idol. I classify them the same. BUT I am not here to change your mind. For some reason the Lord has you in a wall against Gen 1:14.. I have faith that there is a reason for this. Perhaps to keep some of us grounded from the idols of star search, I don't know. Just saying that I realize your frustration with those of us in this forum. Yet, I rest in Gen 1:14... and because the Feasts I feel are God's clock & are based on the heavenly timings, not a day count. The moon must be this way or that way bfore the Fot, and before a count to Passover can begin, and that is also based on an elliptical event...all of this heavenly clock "signs." and then what jesus said Himself: We are kind of told to watch for the Son of Man,, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 27“Then they will see THE SON OF MAN COMING IN A CLOUD 30“And then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the SON OF MAN COMING ON THE CLOUDS OF THE SKY with power and great glory. is the sign of the son of man the shaking of the heavens? it seems there is a sign of the son of man in the SKY and then He comes in the clouds... even so the heavens are shaken first, and the is a sign first based on these two accounts. What is this said Sign in the sky?

Using physical things to explain heavenly principles.
Jer 33:19 And the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah, saying, 20 Thus saith the LORD; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, and that there should not be day and night in their season; 21 Then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers. 22 As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured: so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister unto me.
23 Moreover the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, saying, 24 Considerest thou not what this people have spoken, saying, The two families which the LORD hath chosen, he hath even cast them off? thus they have despised my people, that they should be no more a nation before them. 25 Thus saith the LORD; If my covenant be not with day and night, and if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth; 26 Then will I cast away the seed of Jacob, and David my servant, so that I will not take any of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: for I will cause their captivity to return, and have mercy on them.

mike, finally got time to watch this. A great summary of things. I tend to disagree with the seven years plus seven years because that puts us over 80 years from 1948. But I do see where it's a valid hypothesis. Here's something to consider... the first eclipse was 33 days before the Rev 12 sign. The second eclipse is 33 days from what I believe is the Rev 15 sign. That sign does have a longer duration than the first sign, but 33 days fits into that duration. Honestly, I don't think there is much time left.

The 7 planets line up in the Celestial Sea lit by the sun and attended by Pleiades.. It's something like May 2-12.

Hello friend @natalie,
2 questions. Not to challenge -i just missed something.😉 The May date- is that next year 2020? Also the 7 year thing. I understood him to mean 7 years total from the eclipse in 2017 [August i think] to the next big one that crosses the USA and makes the x over little Egypt. What was the other 7 years?
Cheers, Disciple4Life

Cheers, Disciple4Life May 2024 He was saying 7 years of plenty and 7 years of famine. The first 7 years began with the eclipse in Aug 2017. I agree with Natalie that this point is suspect. Also the second eclipse is not 7 years later its actually 2422 days (or 2423 inclusive of last day) which 6.636 solar years or 6.73 lunar. God is extremely precise! Ex 12:41 And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt. While I do think the second eclipse could mean something, I dont believe it is exactly as Thad portrays. Ive many others try to squeeze this as being 7 years apart. They are not.

Hi D4L, my understanding of what he said was seven years of plenty starting in 2017. Then there would be 7 years of famine (Daniels 70th week). I could have misunderstood though. I will answer the other part in a few minutes.
