The Four Heavenly Signs of 2017

The Name “YaHWeH” written in Hebrew appears as 777  (source link)

5777 The Year of Signs Following the Year of Signs

2017, or actually the Hebrew year 5777, is proving to be The Year of Signs Following the Year of Signs. The previous year of 5776 showcased the blood moon tetrad (see The Year of the Blood Moons) and now this year many are talking, blogging, and Youtubing about September 23 possibly being the Revelation 12:1-2 Sign. BUT there are THREE MORE celestial events that I believe could be in the category of Genesis 1:14 signs as well!

And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: - Genesis 1:14 KJV

From the very beginning God designed the sky above us to be for SIGNS and for SEASONS. The word ‘seasons’ is translated from the Hebrew word mow`ed which means “appointed place, appointed time, meeting” BLB-Blue Letter Bible. He then set up seven specific meeting times with His people referred to as The Seven Festivals of the Messiah. They are ‘of the Messiah’ because they are appointments that Jesus Christ, Y’shua Ha Moshiach, was to fulfill. If you are not familiar with these, the best source I have found for understanding the significance of these feasts is from a book by the same title written by Ed Chumney which he has generously posted on his website hebroots.com.

SIGN #1—Passover, April 10, 2017

Did you realize that Passover (on the secular calendar) began last night? (See chabad.org) Passover is one of the moedim or feasts that was fulfilled by the Messiah when He was crucified. Scott Clarke, of ERF Ministries, points out what feasts have been fulfilled by Messiah and which are yet to be fulfilled in his video  No Man Knows The Day or Hour-OH REALLY? He produced this back in 2013 so his understanding of the end times is more enriched in his recent videos.

His most recent video explains the first sign I am referring to and is called Passover Sign Tonight! 

In that video Scottie mentions the second sign I wanted to point out to you:

SIGN #2—Great American Eclipse—August 21, 2017

In my March 2, 2017, article I wrote about this upcoming solar eclipse. If you want to find out more details about where and how to view this celestial event (do not view it with the naked eye!), you will find the links therein. The Divine Message of the August Eclipse can be found at Unsealed.org.

SIGN #3—‘Most Probable’ Revelation 12:1-2 Sign—September 23, 2017

And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:

And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. - Revelation 12:1-2 KJV

When the first sliver of the crescent moon appears to the naked eye this coming September (go to moonconnection.com to check this yourself) it announces the beginning of the Hebrew New Year—Rosh Hashanah—an event that will occur this year on September 21 when the Hebrew Year 5777 will become 5778. This holiday, also known as Yom Teruah or the Feast of Trumpets, is celebrated for two days and will be concluded on September 23, 2017—the same day the celestial event being called the Revelation 12 Sign is to occur. I use the phrase ‘most probable’ in my subtitle because humans are fallible, yet all the evidence is pointing to it being the actual date of the Revelation 12 Sign.

What is this Sign and what will be seen in the heavens on September 23? Scott Clarke was the first to discover this celestial event back in 2011 while using the Stellarium program and shares his view that the Revelation 12 Sign will occur on September 23 and is referring to the Pre-Tribulation Rapture of the Church Body.

In more recent videos Scottie shares that the Church was not born on the Feast of Pentecost (as we have been traditionally taught) but was conceived on that day and to be born on the Feast of Trumpets!

Rosh Hashanah = Rapture? Why would the Rapture or Catching Away of the Church be on The Feast of Trumpets? Rosh Hashanah is also known as “the day no man knows” and is the festival on which the Church Bride will be raptured:

Yet another name for Rosh Ha Shanah is Yom HaKeseh, "The Day of the Hiding" or "the Hidden Day."…Satan, the accuser, is not to be given notice about the arrival of Rosh HaShanah, the Day of Judgment. ...It is symbolically hidden from satan (satan did not know and understand the plan of the cross [tree], First Corinthians 2:7-8). This was hidden from him as well.

One of the reasons most often given to disclaim that the resurrection of the dead and the catching away of the believers is on Rosh HaShanah is the statement given by Yeshua in Matthew (Mattityahu) 24:36, as it is written, "But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but My Father only." Because Rosh HaShanah was understood to be the hidden day, this statement by Yeshua is actually an idiom for Rosh Hashanah. Thus it should be given as proof that He was speaking of RoshHaShanah because Rosh HaShanah is the only day in the whole year that was referred to as the hidden day or the day that no man knew. hebroots.com/chap 7

In some of my past posts I wrote that I believed the Revelation 12 Sign was the Sign of the Son of Man in Matthew 24. I realize now that the scripture does NOT tell us WHAT the Sign of the Son of Man actually is so I cannot make that assumption. I also used to think that the Revelation 12 Sign referred to the rapture of the 144,000 who are seen in heavenly Mount Zion in Revelation Chapter 14, but do not believe that is the case now.

My understanding of the significance of Rosh Hashanah (see my blog article Jesus' Appearing and the Fall Festivals) has me expectant that this may very well be when the Lord of Glory, the Bridegroom of the Beloved, Jesus Christ gathers His Church Bride.

Sign to be Seen with the Naked Eye? There are those who surmise that although the Revelation 12 Sign is to occur in the daytime over Jerusalem (making it not possible to be seen with the naked eye), it will be seen due to an eclipse darkening the sun and allowing the stars to be seen. Is it possible that Nibiru or Planet X will cause an eclipse on the same day the Revelation 12 Sign occurs?

David Meade’s research of Nibiru indicates a pole shift will occur and points to Amos 8:9. 

And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord GOD, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day: - Amos 8:9 KJV

In fact he attributes most of the catastrophes in the Book of Revelation to this incoming planetary system. Scott Clarke explains 2017 Heavenly Signs with more recent revelation related to this sign.

Sign #4—Revelation 12:3-5—The Great Red Dragon Sign

topbuzz.com

And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.

And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.

And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne. - Revelation 12:3-5

Scott Clarke gives a succinct overview of how a celestial object known as Nibiru or Planet X might relate to the prophecy in a video entitled Planet X the Red Dragon September 23, 2017.

Multiple sources are warning that an exoplanet, known as Planet X (and known by many other names—Planet Nine, Nibiru, Red Kachina, Nemesis, and even Wormwood), will be coming near enough to Earth to be seen in September 2017. I believe that Wormwood (Revelation 8) is actually a large asteroid being dragged by Planet X in its debris field and that Planet X itself may be the Great Red Dragon of Revelation 12.

[My remark: Notice the size of the dwarf star versus the earth-sized planets orbiting it!] To read more go to nasa.gov.

NASA is giving soft disclosure of this incoming planetary disaster by, I believe, referring to it as the Trappist-1 System:

At about 40 light-years (235 trillion miles) from Earth, the system of planets is relatively close to us, in the constellation Aquarius. Because they are located outside of our solar system, these planets are scientifically known as exoplanets.

The TRAPPIST-1 star, an ultra-cool dwarf, has seven Earth-size planets orbiting it. nasa.gov

This system may be closer than NASA is admitting, however. David Meade, author of Planet X--The 2017 Arrival during his interview by Steve Olson of the WSO Youtube Channel said (referring to Planet X), “This is coming like a freight train.”

On his writer’s website, David wrote:

If you want absolute proof of the existence of Planet X, aka Nibiru or The Destroyer, here it is – from the Book of Revelation, Chapter 6.

 12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;

13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.

14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.

15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains.

Think on these matters – a great earthquake, the sun darkened, the moon changed to the color of blood, and stars falling.  The atmosphere splits open while every mountain is moved.  That’s when the underground bunkers prepared for the elite are operational.

Only a Planet X passage could split open the atmosphere making the sky “depart as a scroll” and create these phenomena via its physical interactions with Earth.  It could cause a worldwide earthquake moving every mountain and island via a pole shift.  Therefore, to me the description of Seal 6 in the Bible is the single greatest proof of Planet X. The timing of its appearance is immediately in sequence with the rapture.  To understand this concept, let’s go over some Biblical principles. [To continue reading go to: Planet X  The 2017 Arrival]

Not in Darkness

What if I am wrong and the Church is not raptured by September 23? Even if I am wrong (and I will admit it if I am), 2017 is still a very significant year!

*"There are at least six significant Israel-related anniversaries approaching in 2017: the first Zionist Congress (120th), the Balfour Declaration (100th), the UN General Assembly Partition Resolution (70th), the Six-Day War (50th), Anwar Sadat’s visit to Jerusalem (40th), and the first intifada (30th)." (Source: timesofisrael.com)

*It will be the end of the 120^th Jubilee Year thus marking the end of the Sixth Millennium. (There are 50 years between Jubilees, so 50 X 120= 6,000 years.) Christ the Messiah must return to Earth as KING of Kings and LORD of Lords to set up His 1,000 year reign when the Sixth Millennium ends!

One of my favorite authors, Dr. Michael S. Heiser, once pointed out that all the scriptural puzzle pieces pertaining to Messiah’s first coming did not come together until Jesus actually came. So it will be with His second coming which will be preceded by the Rapture, the gathering of the Church Bride.

Exactly what will happen is yet to be seen. But know this! We are the last generation since the replanting of Israel (Matthew 24:34)! As believers in the Messiah, our Jesus, we recognize the appointed seasons and are not in darkness. 

But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. I Thessalonians 5:4

Maranatha!
