Asa (king of Judah) in 896 BC (15th year of his reign), in the 3rd month (Sivan - month identified with the last 4 months of Harvest) assembled all of Judah, Benjamin, and those who had come to live with them from Ephraim, Manasseh, and Simeon, to enter into a covenant to seek guidance from the LORD. Those who refused to seek the LORD, whether old or young, male or female, were put to death (2 Chr 15:13). There are 2907 years from 896 BC to 2012 AD. 2907 has factors of 3 X 3 [certainty in its establishment by God], 17 [Judgment/Heaven], and 19 [identified with ending period of Great Tribulation].

Anchor Bible Dictionary (abstract)

The final tribulation is identified with an hour, a day, a month, and a year. A 24 year period meets that spiritual reconciliation as 24 is integral to each time reference. From the beginning of the Super-fullness and Completeness of time in 1988 AD or the 13,000th year [13 - super fullness] X [1000 - completeness] to the end of the 23rd harvest year [23 identified with judgment] is the beginning of the 24th year or the year 2012 AD.

A 15 year relationship of Summer to Feast of Ingathering exist between the time Hezikiah was told he would die in his 14th year of his reign (Hezikiah actually dies 15 years later) and 1997 AD, which is also 15 years from 2012. God asssoiates the 4 months from Sivan to Tishri with the Final Harvest.

 

John 4:35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest

 

The removal of idolatry is associated with God's Final Judgement:

 

Revelation 21:7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.

Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. .

.

The Organized Church consisting of all denomination and non-denomination does not receive its latter rain and is EQUATED WITH A WHORE during the Final Tribulation period.

 

 

God equates the physical organized churches "Pergamos" and "Thyatira" with idolatry during the period of Great Tribulation:

 

 

The church of Pergamos

 

Revelation 2:12 And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write; These things saith he which hath the sharp sword with two edges;

Revelation 2:13 I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan’s seat is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.

Revelation 2:14 But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.

 

The church of Thyatira

 

Revelation 2:18 And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass;

Revelation 2:19 I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last to be more than the first.

Revelation 2:20 Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.

Revelation 2:21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.

Revelation 2:22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.

Revelation 2:23 And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.

 

 

 

There are 2907 years from 896 BC to 2012 AD. 2907 has factors of 3 X 3 [certainty in its establishment by God], 17 [Judgment/Heaven], and 19 [identified with ending period of Great Tribulation].

 

 

The number 3 is identified - with purpose or established by God:

 

Deuteronomy 19:15 One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sinneth: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established.

 

The number 17 is identified with judgment:

 

Genesis 37:2 These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brethren; and the lad was with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his father’s wives: and Joseph brought unto his father their evil report.


A spiritual purchase of Land in Israel by Jeremiah for 17 shekels typified the acquisition of the eternal Kingdom or Heaven:

 

Jer. 32:9 And I bought the field of Hanameel my uncle’s son, that was in Anathoth, and weighed him the money, even seventeen shekels of silver..

 

The number 19 is identified with length of great tribulation:

19 years signified the length of time in which the spiritual latter rain harvest was concluded outside Chanaan during Jacob’s Day.

 

Acts 7:11 Now there came a dearth over all the land of Egypt and Chanaan, and great affliction: and our fathers found no sustenance.

God sometimes equates the season of rain with the harvest season, because of their integral relationship.

James 5:7 Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain

The beginning season of rain that would effect Jacob's 1879 BC Harvest would have been 1880 BC. 1880 BC + 1992 years = 1993 AD or 3872 years.

88 (29.5 [lunar month] X3) days (3 months) is identified with God's decision whether to rain (bring saving gospel) or not to rain on a city

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

The final hour of the Final Harvest is typified as the 11th hour which end with sunset (the end of day), Matthew 20:6-9. The Fig Tree Harvest typifies the last 12 years of Final Harvest activity.

Number 4 is identified with the universal (worldwide- 4 winds, Mark 13:27) and the number 4 Biblical usage is connected with the end of an event. For examples, the Children of Israel were in the wilderness for 40 years which has multiples of 10 (completeness) X 4 (end) and God's four sore judgments upon Jerusalem. The complete end of their wilderness journey ended in 40 years and the four sore judgments which result in the end of Physical Jerusalem.

 

Planting of gardens in Babylon and harvesting of Garden for captives carried away under Jehoaichin is also associated with 19:

 

The first Planting of gardens in Babylon and harvesting of Garden for captives carried away under Jehoaichin is also associated with 19 as 57 years has factors of 19 and 3. The first planting by the captives of Jehoaichin could have only occurred in Tishri 597 BC (see note below) to the last planting Tishri 540 for a total of 57 years. In addition, the first harvest by the captives of Jehoaichin could have only occurred in Tishri 596 (see note below) to the last harvest in Babylon (Babylon was destroyed October 10, 539 BC Feast of Ingathering) Tishri 539 BC for a total of 57 years.

 

Note: Sowing Time

 

Tishri, latter half (beginning about the autumnal equinox.) Cheshvan. Kislev, former half. Early rain due = first showers of autumn.

 

Jeremiah 29:4 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, unto all that are carried away captives, whom I have caused to be carried away from Jerusalem unto Babylon;

Jeremiah 29:5 Build ye houses, and dwell in them; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them;

 

The last King of Judah Zedekiah appointed by Babylon in the Spring of 597 BC. Thus, the captives of Jehoiachin could have only planted their first Garden in the fall of 597 BC in Babylon.

The 19th Jubile and the year 457 BC:

Exodus 1447/1446 (Exodus) + 40 years =1407/1406 (entered Chanaan - the start of the fiftieth year count). The jubiles occurred every fiftieth year. The year 457/456 BC equals 950 year from 1407/1406 BC, which is a total of 19 jubiles. The 19th jubile signified the completion of the latter rain harvest.

Leviticus 25:11 A jubile shall that fiftieth year be unto you: ye shall not sow, neither reap that which groweth of itself in it, nor gather the grapes in it of thy vine undressed.

 

The year 457 BC was a jubile Sabbath (land rested). The harvest season contains a Sabbath 50 days within the Harvest Season (Pentecost). A 127 days later from Pentecost is the final Harvest Season Sabbath or Ingathering. A tropical year is 365.24218967 days. There are 901,417 days from 457 BC to 2012 AD. The factors of 901,417 are 11 (last hour of harvest) X 19 X 19 (land rested in Chanaan to End of Great Tribulation in Jacob Day) X 227 (Pentecost). - see link for study

 

The Completion of the Pentecost Harvest (typified by the sealed 153 fish in the net) would be in the year Tishri (fall) 1993 to Tishri (fall) 1994.

John 21:11 Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, an hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the net broken.

 

Tishri (fall) 1993 to Tishri (fall) 1994 year is the 13,005th (11,013 BC + 1992) year of the earth’s existence.

The factors of 13,005 are: 153, 17 and 5

End of the 13,023rd year of the Earth's Existence(a)

(a)

  • Creation Tishri (Sept./Oct.) 11,013 BC (beginning Fall-planting Garden of Eden) + 13,000 years = 1988 Tishri (Sept./Oct. - beginning Fall-planting Garden of Eden) and end of the 12,999 harvest year (1987-1988)

 

Genesis 2:8 And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed.

Genesis 2:9 And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

A season of harvest requires tilling, planting/sowing, rain, and harvest time:

1Corinthians 3:6 I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.

  • The early rain attributable to the end of 12,999th harvest year starts in Tishri (Sept./Oct.) 1987. The beginning of 13,000th Year of the earth's existence is the end of the 12,999th harvest year Tishri (Sept./Oct.) 1988. This is similar to the end of the 23rd harvest year is the beginning of the 24th year or the year 2012 AD
