The worship of God should be a living worship (James 2:26) so as a school's pep rally is designed to create a lively school spirit,
or we can think of a high-spirited horse as being a lively horse, then our worship must be an active life style in accordance with what the Bible really teaches,
and Not out of just some sort of emotional state of mind.

Why do you think it took 40 years to destroy the Temple at Jerusalem? Why not 39, why not 1, why 40?

I may have found something very interesting this evening in regards to timelines associated with Biblical events and the movement of the planets. I hope to share more soon. Right now I'm focus on Jupiter and its 12 years 120 day retrograde.


Remember that number 120 is interesting in that we have 120 Jubilees.

Interesting. I wish I knew more about the Hebrew language system. I did a search, and the Hebrew name for Jupiter is "tzedek" which means "justice". There are 12 judges...12 tribes. The messiah will arise from the succession of Melchizedek, who is essentially a mystery...discussed in Hebrews but not many other places. Does anyone know the numerical value of the Hebrew word "tzedek"? You may be onto something here. I'm all ears.

What's also interesting is what the three Hebrew letters comprising this word represent: Tsade Dalet Kuf.


Tsade = Represented pictorially by a trail


Dalet = Pictorial representation is a door


Kuf = Pictorial representation is a sun on the horizon


Well now, that represents a believer's path, doesn't it? Walking the path toward the entrance to eternal life. Gosh darn it, I need to learn Biblical Hebrew immediately.

It's supposed to matter for believers. Once you are aware of what's happening you're supposed to stay vigilant, because nobody knows the date. Not even the angels. That's where I differ with the OP. I don't get into the habit of predicting. We aren't supposed to. And I am actually AFRAID to.

The only person on record that I believe observed Jubilee is Anthony Johnson, who is known as the first black slave owner. I say "on record" loosely because most of his records have been erased from history. The records of his court dispute (if they still exist) would probably get you closest. I think he was used to sanction slavery in America. He had an indentured servant who believed his contract was up and that Johnson was holding him illegally. I haven't looked up this case but based on what's in Wiki () and what little I know about Jubilee from the Bible, I believe he was keeping his indentured servant until the year of Jubilee (when you were supposed to release people to give them rest). They say he was illiterate but this man owned lots of property. How the heck can you be an illiterate person who owns property and deals with contracts? The image of his "mark" in Wikipedia is clearly Hebrew script to me. Anyway...I'd imagine the only other people who observe Jubilee these days are Native Americans, but they probably call it something totally different. They haven't yet remembered who they are...

And 12 eggs in a carton.

And 12 beers in a box.

And 12 tones in a chromatic scale.

I tell you, it must be a conspiracy.

That is interesting. I know that in ancient Hebrew that the in Genesis 6:3 where it mentions the one hundred twenty days in letters actually has a numerical value of 666.

Actually we will know the date if we are watching. This idea that we CAN'T know is a NOT the truth.


Act 1:6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
Act 1:7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.
Act 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.



You see you can't know UNTIL you receive POWER when the Holy Ghost comes upon them. The Disciples had not received the Holy Ghost until the day of Pentacost. At that point the POWER of God can come upon you and reveal these things.



Therefore, don't be fooled by the lie that we can't know.
