A seventh chord is a chord consisting of a triad plus a note forming an interval of a seventh above the chord's root. When not otherwise specified, a "seventh chord" usually means a dominant seventh chord: a major triad together with a minor seventh. However, a variety of sevenths may be added to a variety of triads, resulting in many different types of seventh chords, as described below.

In its earliest usage, the seventh was introduced solely as an embellishing or nonchord tone. The seventh destabilized the triad, and allowed the composer to emphasize movement in a given direction. As time passed and the collective ear of the western world became more accustomed to dissonance, the seventh was allowed to become a part of the chord itself, and in some modern music, and jazz in particular, nearly every chord is a seventh chord. Additionally, the general acceptance of equal temperament during the 19th century reduced the dissonance of some earlier forms of sevenths.

If you didn't know Revelations was part of the bible, doesn't it read like something L. Ron Hubbard would write if he was on LSD?

I couldn't imagine a more stoned story.

He says He comes as a thief in the night.

I would say that the ones that were watching before were wrong. But it would be illogical and in fact contrary to Christ to say this means we are not to watch just because some were wrong.

I would say the ones watching now are wrong--based on the number of Christians who have been wrong in the past.

When NO ONE is watching is when it will occur.

He says he will not come as a thief to those who watch.


2000 years of a Christianity that had stopped teaching the 7 visitation days of the Lord.

Each of the 7 days has an exact science and what is done on each, what promises are given on each, and what missions are accomplished.

A whole science of trumpet blasts and different horns at different times having different sounds and meanings. Very specific prayers spoke on exact days. If the kingdoms of the world become the kingdoms of our Lord, we know it's Rosh Hashanah, there is no doubt about this.

If a religion doesn't teach the 7 appointed visitation days, then they cannot have an opinion.

Appointed visitation days are appointed, it's not a guess.


WE should all strive to teach of Rosh Hashanah and Shemini Atzereth if we are to watch and be prepared, if we want the promise of Shemini Atzereth, we should teach the promise.


But the world looks at a Christianity that moved away from the knowledge of the 7 feast days, and not knowing them is just not knowing them. It isn't something that is hidden.

I thought the thief in the night was death of flesh.

A thief in the night has broken into your house, it becomes his house. There are several different things that talk about this.

Like a woman standing in a gallon and something else wants to get in that gallon and the woman is pushed down so violently that she has fit inside that gallon.

Or like the trampling of the grapes where God steps into the vat and tramples so violently that the wine reaches heavens atmosphere, and the result of this shows a wide river that is 4 feet deep and 200 miles long from the trampling of the grapes.{Sukkot}.

Passover is when your waters are split and they stand on end, God exposes the hidden chambers beneath the sea, but the water collapses back on people so violently that a sea has fallen on them.

You cut a sacrifice in two, and God walks between the halves.

Nope. Many, if not most Biblical scholars agree that 1948 is NOT the fulfillment of Deuteronomy and Ezekiel:

Quote:
[SIZE=5]1948 Statehood of Israel does not fulfill Bible prophecy! [/SIZE]
Pre-tribulation Rapture Refuted: 1948 Israeli nationhood did not fulfill prophecy

Read the evidence and weep.

I'm going to go ahead and watch:

Mat_24:42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

Mat_24:43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.

Jesus says if the goodman of the house KNEW in what watch the thief would come he would have watched. Jesus has given us to KNOW when He will come.

Notice this:

Luk 12:45 But and if that servant say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; and shall begin to beat the menservants and maidens, and to eat and drink, and to be drunken;

Luk 12:46 The lord of that servant will come in a day when he looketh not for him, and at an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him in sunder, and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers.

Are you of the belief that He would come to us just as He would to "THAT SERVANT" in the verse above? Obviously, some will be looking and have trimmed their lamps.
