The final season of figs is identified with Tishri. There are 296 moon cycles (lunar month) from Tishri 1988 to Tishri 2012. A month is defined in the Bible from one new moon to another new moon. The moon phases between one new moon to another new moon is about 29.5 days.

 

Isaiah 66:23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD.

 

Adar is identified with the month of no latter rain. A period of no latter rain effects the summer to Fall Harvest (Tishri). A solar month is identified with 30 days (365 days divided by 12 month is 30.4 days). There are 296 solar months from Adar/February 1988 to Tishri/October 2012.

*Note: There are 8993 days from Adar 1, 1988 to Tishri 15/16 (October 1), 2012 [23 x 23(double judgment) x 17(Jacob goes to Heaven) = 8993]

From the 296th day of the lunar year (1988-89) or Jewish Calendar Year (5749) there remains 88 days or 3 months to the harvest. God in Amos 4:7 indicated a division of the latter rain associated with the end time harvest would occur at time identified with summer (Tammuz ) to the fall harvest (Tishri) or 3 months to harvest.

*Note: Tammuz (June/July) is the month in which summer figs would be ripe if the latter rain was received: otherwise the summer figs would wither.

 

Mediterranean countries, are capable of producing up to three fig crops (Spring, Summer and Fall) per year.

Abstract 2005 Britanica -Article Figs

Some varieties produce only one crop, in summer or fall. Some bear two crops, the first maturing in June or July on wood of the previous growth and the second ripening in summer or fall in the axils of the leaves of the same season.

 

Amos 4:7 And also I have withholden the rain from you, when there were yet three months to the harvest: and I caused it to rain upon one city, and caused it not to rain upon another city: one piece was rained upon, and the piece whereupon it rained not withered.

 

1988 or the 13,000 (260 X 50) year of the earth existence is identified with Summer from the standpoint of an absence of the latter rain occurring in the physical organized churches. Summer can be identified with drought (absence of rain) as we seen in Psalms 32:4 .

*Note: 260 th Day Start of Summer -A new day in the Bible starts at sunset, technically the night before ( Oct 7, 1987) would be the beginning of Tishri 15 (a new year) + 259 days = June 21 (same day after 6 p.m. counts as another day) + 1 = 260; we see this type of reckoning of time in Matthew 20:8. June 21, 1988 the summer solstice marks the first day of the season of summer.

50 identified with the Harvest Cycle -

  • 25 weeks of early and latter rain
  • 25 weeks of harvest time 7 weeks from the day after Passover is Pentecost and 18 weeks from Pentecost to the Feast of Ingathering (Fall Harvest)

Psalms 32:4 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is turned into the drought of summer. Selah.

 

Jesus expects figs at time when it is not their season, Mark 11:13 (1994 is the earliest summer figs could have been received if latter rain had occurred from 1988 to 1994):

 

Mark 11:13 And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet

 

Jesus also indicated he expects figs at a time when it is not their season. The year 1987-88 marks the start of summer the absence of latter rain where God causes it not to rain on a city (the city is the physical organized churches). Christ came looking for figs though it was not yet the season for figs.

*Note: 3 months to Harvest is also identified with the beginning of Latter Rain outside the physical organized churches or city (world) outside the physical organized churches beginning in 1997.

Winter or Adar 1988 is not the season for summer Figs

Fall Harvest or Tishri 1988 is not the season for summer Figs, since the Pentecost Harvest was not completed but rather it was sealed. The Pentecost Harvest would have been completed in 1994, [49 X50] in relationship to the Physical Temple and in relation to Christ (the Spiritual Temple) [49 X 40]. Thus the Pentecost harvest still occurred in the physical organized churches in 1994 despite the absence of latter rain . This is analogous to a spiritual Pentecost (Spring Harvest) occurring in Judah in 597 BC, despite the absence of any latter typified by the death of Josiah in 609 BC.

 

Jeremiah 24:1 The LORD shewed me, and, behold, two baskets of figs were set before the temple of the LORD, after that Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon had carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, and the princes of Judah, with the carpenters and smiths, from Jerusalem, and had brought them to Babylon.

Mediterranean countries, are capable of producing up to three fig crops (Spring, Summer and Fall) per year.

Jeremiah 24:2 One basket had very good figs, even like the figs that are first ripe [1073. - bakkurah] and the other basket had very naughty figs, which could not be eaten, they were so bad.

What should have followed Pentecost 1994 was the Summer Harvest, but the summer harvest fails within the physical organized churches (city that withers, Amos 4:7) forcing a delay of 3 and 1/2 years (James 5:17-18) of the start of the Final Harvest that can only to occur ouside of the physical organized churches (rain received in another city, Amos 4:7).

 

James 5:17 Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.

James 5:18 And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit.

Jesus who is identified with water (latter rain ) typifies his departure of Jerusalem starting in 1988 (See Mark 11:11 -21 Spiritual demise of the Physical Organized Churches below) as the departure of latter rain.

1John 5:6 This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water [5204 hudor] only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.

 

The true believers are also identified as being born of water. This is analogous with the harvest of figs, since figs are also born of water. Figs absent the latter rain will wither in summer.

 

John 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

 

Mark 11:11 -21 Spiritual demise of the Physical Organized Churches (both Judah and the physical organized churches are typified as having periods of no latter rain that wither the Summer Harvest)

 

Jeremiah 3:3 Therefore the showers have been withholden, and there hath been no latter rain; and thou hadst a whore’s forehead, thou refusedst to be ashamed.

James 5:17 Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.

 

Nighttime 1988 was cursed by the absence of latter rain although it not the time for summer figs. This parallels Jesus cursing of the fig tree that withers the next morning during the time Jesus was physically on Earth as we Mark 11:14. The physical organized becomes cursed prior to the time or season of figs (summer fruit) is actually due. If latter rains had come figs would have been due in summer to feast starting in 1994, but the crops wither instead in the physical organized churches due the lack of latter rain.

Note: The final tribulation is spiritually typified as 24 hour day. The fig tree (summer fruit) withers in the morning in the physical organized churches morning/summer is paralleled with 1996/97 and day/summer is paralleled with 2000/01.

 

Mark 11:11 And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and when he had looked round about upon all things, and now the eventide was come, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve.

Mark 11:12 And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry:

Mark 11:13 And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet.

Mark 11:14 And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.

Mark 11:15 And they come to Jerusalem: and Jesus went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves;

Mark 11:16 And would not suffer that any man should carry any vessel through the temple.

Mark 11:17 And he taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called of all nations the house of prayer? but ye have made it a den of thieves.

Mark 11:18 And the scribes and chief priests heard it, and sought how they might destroy him: for they feared him, because all the people was astonished at his doctrine.

Night time or even 6 PM - 6 AM parallels 1988 - 2000 AD (A year for an hour)

1988 Even come Christ departs from City (physical organized churches) in term of the absence of latter rain

1994 - 2000 Even come Christ departs from City (Total, absence of rain and harvest that never returns to the physical organized churches during the Second and Third Watch)

 

Mark 11:19 And when even was come, he went out of the city.

 

In the Morning the Fig Tree is withered away 1996-1997 (Morning Watch), which is the end of an unproductive summer in the physical organized churches.

Mark 11:20 And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.

Mark 11:21 And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.
