Of interest to me is if I move back 70 years from 1914 I am getting the year 1844 which was a known date for the end of the world.
Times .... 1844 + 70 years + 70 years + 7 years + 7 years
So we have the year 1998 AD finally. But what happens if we split the 70 weeks as Daniel 9.25 shows we may extend time !!!
Daniel 9.25:
70 weeks ( which is 70 times 7 what Jesus was saying in matthew 18.22) can be looked at in another way -----7O weeks= 7 weeks + 62 weeks + 1 week
To make a sense from these weeks we must transform them according to the rule I gave in my original (starting post on this thread):
long years,short years,long days,short days
We know that 7 weeks mean:
2520 years (which can be both literal or symbolic covering any long period of time) + 7 years (2520 days) + 2520 days + 7 days + 7 days62 weeks= 62 x 7 = 434 days = 360 + 60 = 14 days
1 week = 7 days
So we add to August,10,1999 90 days,60 days,14 days as explained earlier and we add 90 days ( a season) and a time ( a lunar year) to come to the April,7,2001.
### 360 days: August,15,1998 - August,10,1999
Since there were two calendars in Israel with a half-year difference we take it into consideration and add a half year ( 183 or 182 days) and that is why we come to October,6,2001.
And now we add 77 days for 77 years; 1914-1991 and 10 days for 1991-2001 and come to January,1,2002 !!!
The above is from OBVES but could just as well come from the keyboard of YoYo, YouKnow, Bableman/J92/LargeSky, Dungsmere, Shallby or any number of self made internut fundy bible scholars. Well the clock has just ticked us over into 2002 and again the predicted end of the world hasn't come, the horses aren't wading through rivers of blood, the birds aren't out feasting on the flesh of kings and I ain't here earnestly rump humping the nearest female with the Angels bashing at the door and threatening to send me down if I don't show 'em my mark in the foreheadskin.
Be nice if OBVES took some personal responsibility for his insanity and rushed screaming into the sea filled with deep gloom and remorse but alas, i have the feeling the sad fellow's barefaced bullshit and mythical number crunching won't end with this nights New Year celebrations.
Give him a 24 hour day and he'll be up leaping from scrapture to rapture flapping his arms, preaching doom and apocalypso, enthralling us once again with his valiant leaps of faith and logic, huffing, puffing, panting in self flageolation in the fine tradition of christians past. So be it there is no cure. (tho me thinks there be something perverse and French about such as whip themselves for thier own amusement!)
Lord God Jah Jesus Christ relieve us i pray from the myopic fanaticism and mind numbing stupidity of your followers .. no wonder you ain't never comming back, this year or any other.
