‘And I began to weep bitterly, because no one was found worthy to open the Scroll or look inside it. Then one of the Elders said to me, Do not weep! Behold, the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed to open the Scroll and its 7 Seals.’ – Revelation 5:4-5

The purpose of this study is to speak on the topic of how to have discernment as to know what Prophecy is and what are its Protocols. Why? One of the most asked questions pertaining to Biblical Prophecy is, ‘Have the Seals been broken in Revelation? Well, yes and no. There are for sure many who adamantly believe the 7 Seals have been broken and one is currently in the 7-Year Tribulation Period. One has heard and read this theory for 40 years now. Then there are those that say they have not but have in terms of their ‘Prophetic Shadow’ that have echoed down through time.

Those that just see or focus on 1 aspect of the scenario or Prophetic Storyline might think some have a ‘Horse Blinder Effect’ -but not of the 4 Horseman in that one is only seeing a portion of the whole. Or as that ‘Forest from the Trees’ axiom goes. So, all are still ‘Students’ of Biblical Prophecy. What is sad is that in this ‘Last Hour’ of the Church Age when Prophecy should be taught the most and because it is needed, it has not been taught, deliberately. For the purposes of this study, it will be one a point of view and/or perspective of being open when it comes to Prophecy.

But one is adamant or seem to come across so only because of one’s repose in the Word as one sees it pertaining to Prophecy. Why? This disposition at how one sees the perspectives of Biblical Prophecy has to do when one was first got Saved at 13 and how one got Saved. What one read and understood of what Jesus said He did, offers and has in store? All that gave one the most assured Security in one’s Being. Why so much? It is because one was without all that. One was not the right Race, Color, Language, Class, Looks, Possession, Family….on and on. Or of not really being loved by one’s Family and Relatives, etc. And especially at this age, as one knows is a pivotal point in development in Children.

But one read, with the help of one’s 8th Grade Teacher that a Being/Person came from Heaven to provide for having one’ Soul, Spirit and Body saved. That Jesus loved one, unconditionally. That one is going to live forever with GOD. That one would be able to Rule the Nations and sit on Heavenly Thrones? What? That GOD ‘adopted one into His Family? And that one is now a Son of a King? Royalty? So, for a 13-year old Boy….that gave one Extreme Confidence, and Security in Him, Jesus. Now, one’s Friends thought one went crazy and that one was not confident but conceited.

Typologies
One guesses such a Security came across that way. But they did not understand that to be in Jesus, to know Jesus is to be so secure of Him, because of Him. So with such precepts, one looks at Biblical Prophecy in the same way. So, for example, are the 7 Seals broken now or when one gets to Heaven, or soon after the Rapture? Well, let us ask the following for clear evidence. Have the 4 Horseman begun riding or have they yet to? Well, as mentioned one’s approach is from a wider and all-encompassing Prophetic Perspective in that both are correct.

That is why one has no problem when People say, ‘The Rapture takes place at the Mid-Tribulation’. You are right. Or ‘No, the Rapture take places in chapter 4’. You are right. Or ‘No, the Rapture takes place at the end of the Tribulation or Pre-Wrath’. You are all correct. And, same with the 7 Seals. What has helped one to see perspective in Biblical Prophecy is the notion of using and understanding ‘Typology’. Such are types that even came from Jesus Himself and how He lays it all out. These are the Parables or Metaphors used to teach and convey a truth. Now some Typologies and Parables use real events and People, other times, they do not. One has to be very discerning of the context then.

Take the Olivet Discourse, for example. Jesus basically outlined the entire book of Revelation, but after chapter 4. Why? The 1st 4 chapters pertain to the Church Age ‘Intermission’. The Disciples would have been confused if Jesus taught and explained to them the ‘Church Age’. The Discourse pertained to the language, Typology and Metaphors that the Jews were familiar with. These were the imagery given to Daniel and why Jesus warned them of the details from Daniel, etc. Thus, the aspects of the 1st 4 attributes of what to look for before the end of the Age and His 2nd Coming, as asked by His Disciples are essentially the 4 Horseman of the Apocalypse.

What did Jesus 1st say to be on guard about? Deception. Then War. Then Famine and then Death. One can overlay this Pattern or Typology from Luke 13 and Matthew 24: False Christs, Wars and Rumors of Wars, Famine-Earthquakes, and Death/Martyrdom. Then the Great Tribulation. And then the Day of the LORD. Jesus summed-up Revelation 101 in 1 sentence the 7-year Tribulation Period that concludes the 70th Shemitah Sabbatical Cycle of Daniel’s Week of Years.

So, have the 7 Seals been broken? Yes and no. Both are true. How so? There is a ‘White Horse’ Rider riding…This is the Spirit of Antichrist and Deception since the beginning. It started in the Garden. And each world Empire Leader or Rider’ since has had its Antichrist Figure embodying Deception or the Rider on the White Horse….You had Nimrod, Pharaoh, Nebuchadnezzar, Cyrus, Darius, Alexander, the Caesars, the Popes, Charlemagne, Napoleon, Hitler, etc. But the last one, The AntiChrist to come will occur when the Seal is broken by Jesus in the presence of the Bride, in that Court Room session in Heaven. This will be after the Rapture event. The Scroll is like a ‘Last Will and Testament’ and the Beneficiaries need to be present as ‘Witnesses’ to execute and distribute the Estate, etc. Amazing thing though is that the Executor is not Dead.

Show Me the Money
That is why also, the Bride of Christ will not know nor see who this AntiChrist will be on Earth as the ‘revealing’ occurs post-Rapture. So, of course this is based on the logic of such a reasoning as mentioned. Here is one’s issue regarding the Seals. If the literal 7 Seals to begin with revealing the AntiChrist, has that already happened? It would be easy then to believe and identify that ‘Man of Sin’. Can anyone please point to him out? Surely, he is conquering the World and every Nation now presently with his Peace Initiatives. And where is the 2nd Beast that is funneling all the World to worship this 1st Beast? Sorry, just do not see it.

Where are the Daily Sacrifices being performed? Or what about Celestial Signs in that some People use them to justify that the Seals have been broken? Some believe, for example that Solar Eclipse in Sagittarius that took place in fall of 2019 was the breaking of the 1st Seal in how the Rider with a ‘Crown’ or Corona let loose the virus. And that it was the AntiChrist because the Sign also had the ‘Bow’. This is another example of the Typology factor in play. But realize that every Sign is a facet of Jesus. In the case of Sagittarius, it is a dual-natured Being with a Bow and Arrow, not just a Bow. And this Being is one in which been crowed a Victor as in an Olympic competition.

The coming AntiChrist figure will have no such rise or even ‘contest’. But notice where his arrow is aimed at? It is aimed at the Heart of Scorpio, the Enemy and is bloodied, Red in color. This corresponds to the Super Giant Star Aldebaran to serve as a type of how Lucifer has suffered the Mortal Head wound by the Victor, the GOD-Man, Jesus. Now it is very interesting and true that it was then a Sign of the coming Corona Virus and how the Enemy has hijacked the Signs to get credit. But such Signs are all of the LORD, all pre-planned and ordained since before Creation.

So, we can take solace that yes, the Seals have a spirit, a ‘Prophetic Echo’ throughout History and are and will but the nexus point is yet to be fulfilled in its summation or culmination as intended. Apparently, it is becoming the case that there is that 13th month to be considered for this year after all, as far as the Rabbinical Calendar is concerned. One started to write back a synopsis but it got too long. Imagine that. It can be found at the following link.

#524: IS 2021 A LEAP YEAR?
https://www.postscripts.org/ps-news-524.html

One looked-up the Leap Years for the Gregorian Count, and it is not. Suffice to say that one just has to test out all the Biblical Prophetic Theories and wait on the LORD. As to the literal breaking of the 7 seals? If not this year, then next but must continue ‘watching and waiting’, tossing the turning’ but be about the Father’s Business no? The World and its People are getting crazier by the day. This is where it is heading. It is a Prophetic Spectrum to ‘Nothing is happening, move along and keep your head buried in the sand’. To questions about such sites and characters like Steve Quayle and apprehensions of those that proclaim, ‘the Sky is Falling’ all the time? And/or that the Rapture took place yesterday.

Well, as for Quayle, he is the premiere Prepper and from what one has listened to him and say, one would agree with a lot. But as many have said and one agrees, ‘You just have to know how to chew on the Meat and spit-out the Bones’. Then there are the others that say they have ‘Inside Intel’ and are connected to those ‘In the Know’. Perhaps. Ok, but what does not sit well with one is that if such ‘Prophetic’ information is so compelling and a matter of Life and Death, especially to the Body of Christ, then why do we need a Subscription and to pay to know such intel?

As the Word does teach, Ministers of the Gospel and Teachers in full time Ministry can be totally supported. But one does not think that such ‘Ministries’ qualify under this Biblical qualifier. Although, sure a lot of fear-mongering is going on in the study and teaching of Biblical Prophecy. As to exclaiming that the Sky is Falling every other day? It will be like that saying that a Broken Watch is right 2x/day? Something like that.

Now, one does like the work Quayle have done on the Gen 6 side of his productions with the study of the Giants and Ancient Burial Sites all over the world. For one, this is one of the other loves as one branches-off into the research and study of the Martian Motif ‘out of this world’ theory. It supposes that all ‘Sacred Sites’ both ancient and modern all over Earth were and are being patterned after Cydonia, Mars,. And why? It is because such Spiritual Entities have not left Earth. The triangulation function as Portals or Star Gates for inter-dimensional travel, etc.

Back to the question about Prophecy and if the 7 Seals have been broken? Many suggest that the Tribulation is about to start and it is contingent on the Rapture. This is not true in one’s assessment. Here is the deal. Many have suggested a 2021-2028 timeline as in the Tribulation Period? Time is running out as 2021 comes to a close and one suspects time will run out. One would say more so that the calculated timeline suggests when the Church Age is to end perhaps, in 2021.

The way one sees it, if 2021-2028 is the Tribulation Period, one would ask, what type of Day/Year count is being used? I am assuming a 365 Gregorian/Western one? What if it is really to be a 360 Day/Year count or the Enochian one, 364 Day/Year? As many know from both Daniel and John, the day counts are in 360 Days/Year. So, just to point out that if one is mixing and matching both in Biblical Prophecy, one is going to be off. But one is still figuring it out, as comes with the Watching and Waiting Protocols.

Now what that will look like or turn out to be? Not sure. One always supposed that if anything, it happens on the other side as Mile Markers are achieved and we may only see the echoes on this side. And then others mention, they have been watching and studying Biblical Prophecy for 50 years? Wow. It made one ask, how many years has one done so? One thought, it was 41 years, since 1980. But then the LORD reminded one of a fact that one had really all this time overlooked. When one had to travel with Parents to buy food, 40 miles away to the nearest small town, to deal with the boredom, one would look at the Pocket Books on a rack to the side of the store.

Prophetic Legacy and Foundations
While Parents shopped, one book that kept one’s attention because of how it looked was of a Planet Earth burning in flames. One did not know what it said as one could not really read English. But the graphics sparked one’s interest as one is a Visual Learner. One opened the book but there were no pictures….Bummer. Over that year though, in 1979, every time one’s Parents went shopping, one would attempt to read some of it as there was no way Parents could or would have bought book as it was not essentials like food, etc. Well, that is where one started studying about Biblical Prophecy. It was Hal Lindsey’s Late Great Planet Earth.

This to say that if one has had 50 years of study in Prophecy, what say you? But one understands about outlandish Biblical Prophecy that is absurd and hurts the entire credibility of those that genuinely seek to be discerning and led by the Holy Spirit. On one hand/extreme, there are those as mentioned hat ‘calculate the Rapture’ to have occurred, yesterday. Then on the other hand/extreme, you have those that because it cannot be decerned or figured-out, they do not Wait or Watch as instructed by Jesus and ‘stick their Head in the Sand’, as they say.

In terms of Protocols of Prophecy, one is in the middle. One believes that if most Churches in the USA, in particular would have known or know about Biblical Prophecy, this COVID farce would have been checked, for example. Or at least not to be an issue of ‘Fear’ or of being afraid and capitulate to the Science Gods and Authorities. Trying to figure out Prophecy could be seen as it is with Love. Does one not ‘Fall in Love’ for Fear of having one’s Heart be broken? Or would it had been better not for YHVH to have created Humanity for how evil it would become? Of course, one is referring to the pieces of Prophecy that are not known or knowable.

In one’s case, from many decades now of studying Biblical Prophecy, one can bank on some assertions, that still can only be conjecture. What are those for example? One believes in the Pentecost double-count, 49 days + 50 days. That the Church Age is relegated to the 7-Feast and Menorah Typology of Pentecost. That the Fall Feasts are not pertaining even in typologies of the Bride. That the end of the Church Age will coincide with that of a Boaz and Ruth type of timing and Wheat Harvest order.

And that to include the 2nd phase of the 1st Resurrection, etc. The issue is what year? So, until one synchronizes, by accident that year, this hit and miss approach will continue, it is part of the Waiting and Watching Protocols. But it should be ‘balanced’ in one’s assessment. Realize that in Biblical Prophecy, certain clues, information, types are not disclosed nor are meant to be. One thing one would believe to be true no matter how many years one has been ‘Watching’ is that what Prophecy of the Last Days was said about is now how it is a reality and this Last Generation. It is literally being seen and being unveiled before ones very eyes. See picture below.

1 Step closer to the Mark of the Beast.

What is Known
As an Amateur Astronomer, one believes that the Heavens do have ‘Signs’ that have occurred and lend some clues as to the timeline of where the Church Age is at, approximately. One such Sign was the Great Wonder of the Revelation 12 Sign back in 2017. In one’s estimation, this was a ‘legit’ Sign, Astronomically. Now what it became and how it took off in a life of its own, that is another story. But such considerations of such phenomena become convoluted when handled by humans or can or will. It was a ‘Wake-Up Call’ for the Church Body specifically but to the World in general. Consider how many countless got saved or repented because of it.

But also, how many left the LORD because ‘it was a dud after all’. One believes the Revelation 12 Sign was a type of the Rapture to come, to put the Bride on notice. Was and is it legit? The Enemy’s Camp thought so, enough to mock it in their movies, stage performances and predictive programing. See composite chart. The accompanying attributes surrounding this Astronomical Sign is beyond a reasonable coincidence. But one can only present the evidence.

Revelation 12 Composite
https://nebula.wsimg.com/c4eeb12b4ae2f10a430452805a59658d?AccessKeyId=D40106E1331C24ABD7C3&disposition=0&alloworigin=1

One does hear the concerns though that such studies cross over into ‘Astrology’ and the ‘Forbidden Arts’, etc. Realize that it is to be expected like 9-11. Immediately afterwards, the Churches across America were full, standing room only. One remembers being an Usher at one’s Church and could not get enough chairs to fill the perimeter of the aisles. One asked why didn’t these People ever come before? Then as the weeks, months and years passed, they left…’ah it was nothing after all’. They ‘Woke Up’ but then went back to ‘Sleep’. And the cynicism got worse.

But with such ‘date setting’, a lot have stopped watching and even gotten bitter about Prophecy because certain expected dates come and go. These are primarily dealing with when is the Rapture event and when the Seals are broken that then starts the Tribulation Period, etc. This is sad as it plays right into the hands of the Enemy…but that is one’s point. Speaking in ideals here. All Believers and Followers are to be Waiting and Watching, and that is a direct Order from Jesus. Thus, the Bride of Christ needs to take heed of the Signs as Jesus admonished the Religious Leaders about that were neglected. Signs are only information of what is to coming ahead.

Some Signs may provide generic or special information as to day counts like those found in Daniel and with John in Revelation. The point is that being grounded and rooted the Scripture, no amount of date-setting should discourage those with little or a lot of Bible ‘Knowledge’ nor should it make the Body of Christ ‘weary’ in well-doing. If they do, then one has one’s Eyes and Mind are on the wrong subject and focus of the Protocols of Biblical Prophecy. As one is critical of many that do date-set, one has said it before, no one can determine the exact day and hour of the Rapture event or the start of the Tribulation Period. Now to speculate, conjecture and estimate….sure that is Biblical.

Rev 12 Wake-Up Call?
One needs to be like the Sons of Issachar who know the Signs of the Day and know what to do because of them. It does give one a chance to do mental exercises when comparing it to Scripture. I think one would get weary in having to filter all that as it does get tiresome of just how faulty many so-called Teachers just spew out nonsense. I think that such an Astronomical Sign as was the Revelation 12 Sign paralleled the Parable of the 10 Virgins.

After all, the Sign in Virgo was just that, it is about the Virgins. And the call, prophetically went out to ‘Wake Up’ and be like the Wise one’s, not the Foolish ones who slept through the ‘Descent’. What caught my attention specific to this Metaphor about the Revelation 12 and being associated with a ‘Wake-Up Call’ was how it correlates in the Strong’s Numbers-to-Year Theory. This coming from the work of William. See article below.

#516: STRONG’S TRIBULATION YEARS
https://www.postscripts.org/ps-news-516.html

What does ‘Being Wise Virgins’ look like? Have short accounts with the LORD, walk closer than ever. Have no Grudges, have no Bitter Roots, own no one Spiritually. Forgive those that have hurt you. How does one know this is the way of being ‘Wise’ and drawing closer to Jesus at this time? One evidence is when you re-read the verses and Promises of Christ and the verses just seem more sharp, clear, pertinent and applicable to one’s life and meaning now than ever before.

Remember it is not about ‘Fearing the Future but believing the Future. And that is contingent on the Body of Christ knowing the Scriptures, Prophecy, etc. And also, why even Prophecy? The Revelation 12 Sign appeared at first at the ‘beginning’ as many have suggested is what appears as the 1st Prophecy was given in Genesis 3:15. Truly the ‘Aim of Prophecy is to testify of Jesus’.

-Revelation 19:10.

STRONG’S TRIBULATION YEARS
RAPTURE YEAR 2021
A Correlation of Year-To-Meaning Study 2022-2029

Is there a correlation between Strong's Numbers and Years?
Does a Year-to-Meaning study suggest the Year of the Rapture?
If so, what does the timeline 2022-2029 suggest is conveying?

Eventually, just on the Law of Probability, one day, a proposed Rapture Date will coincide. Not one to judge any other’s predictions or calculations about the Rapture date, but it is unknowable. What is the difference between such and one like myself and/or that seeks to study the Rapture time sequence?

I for one, only suggest a possible ‘Season’ and do not go beyond Scripture and only what is given as pieces of the puzzle. But one can never say with 100% certainty. No one can. That is why is hesitated in even sharing this Dream about the 723 that could possibly be tied to the Rapture. It is the only time I have ever shared this, and do feel uncomfortable because in my boo, in doing so, then one has crossed over onto the ‘Wild Side’! Thanks Bob. But maybe sometimes a ‘walk on the wild side’ is needed? Nope. Lol Just to say to be careful of the teachings coming from that channel.

It is very interesting though as around this time of the Feast Cycles, the Watchers do start to pick-up on the prophetic type of Tu B’Av or the Jewish ‘Valentines Day’. And that it occurs on the Full Moon. Did not Gary or Jeff at Unsealed.org write-up that if and when the Rapture does take place, that it would be at a Full Moon? Well, as mentioned, the ‘dream’/vision did/does seem interesting and perhaps a prompting but maybe it is a dress rehearsal run-through or to suggest the Season or Time is near.

This time last year, precisely we had also discussed the Prophetic implications and types of the Minor Feast. It is a type of the Rapture, for sure… literally as the Maidens dancing in the Vineyards were ‘snatched’ away, etc. We’ll have to see what pans-out on the 23rd. The Feast does start on that 23rd Sunset, if one counts and goes by the Jewish day count. I read the article about Tu B’Av, the 15 of Av and how it officially starts the Grape Harvest to end on the Day of Atonement, Yom Kippur. It lends credence to how then ‘when Pentecost fully came’ was then the Feast of New Wine. So, I really like all the prophetic correlations as you mentioned.
