The argument goes as follows. Just as the wise men received two confirming signs of the star in the heavens for the baby Jesus, we have two confirming signs of when Jesus returns by the lunar tetrads 1949/50 when Israel became a nation May 14, 1948 and 1967/68 when Israel entered Jerusalem June 7, 1967. The Armistice treaty was signed 1949. These were not any normal Tetrads but they occurred on passover, tabernacles and again on passover and tabernacles. The 8th one since Christ will be 2014/15 and won't happen again till literally the year 2582/83. The probability calculation is as follows. Because there was only one century prior to the 20th century that had 2 feast Tetrads, the probability the Tetrad occurring twice in the 20th century was 1 in 19 centuries. And the probability one of the Tetrads would fall on one of those two key dates was 2/100 and the other landing on the other date was 1/99. This brings the total probability to ~ 1 in 100,00.

The last seven of Daniel's prophecy (Dan. 9.24-27) has yet to be fulfilled which is 2,520 days (7 x 360) like the other 69 sevens were. From the declaration to rebuild the Temple Nisan 1, 444 BC (Neh. 2), the 2nd Temple would be built in troublous times over seven sets of seven (7 x 7 x 360 = 17,640 days) then after another 62 sevens the Messiah would be cut off. 7 x (7+62) x 360 = 173,880 days. There are exactly 173,880 days from March 3, Nisan 1, 444 BC to March 28, 33 AD (Gregorian). March 28 was Nisan 10, Monday, the 1st day of the 4 day inspection of the lamb when Jesus rode into Jerusalem. The 4 day inspection was March 28, 29, 30, 31. Jesus died on a lunar eclipse April 1, 33 AD, Friday, Passover, Nisan 14, April Fool's Day as Satan mocks Jesus. Hundreds of years prior we could predict the exact day Jesus would die on the cross. Amazing! Should we not be able to predict when Jesus steps down on the mount of olives to reign on earth for 1000 years with His overcomers over the nations? Certainly. We knew the day the baby Jesus would be born and when He would die on the cross. Likewise, for those who are discerning, they will know when He returns. Praise the Lord!

Let us be careful though, because all those verses that talk about you can't know the day or the hour should be read in context. Sometimes they deal with the end of the world (not when Jesus returns), speaking to carnal Christians who can't discern, or prior to when Israel would be a nation again since Matt. 24.33 days we can "know" when Jesus returns even the very day "right at the door" (Matt. 24.33) only once Israel is a nation again (v.32). It was around this time we knew when the Tetrads would take place as well.

So before the great and terrible day of the Lord (Joel 2.31, Acts 2.20, Rev. 6.12) would occur three events in specific order: great earthquake, unique solar eclipse and unique lunar eclipse. In 2010, there were 320,000 people who died in Haiti due to an earthquake. It was the second most deaths of any earthquake in history and the most per capita of 1 in 27 souls. In 2011 was the greatest financial loss of any earthquake in history in Japan, 4th greatest in magnitude and all 50+ nuclear power plants were shut down. Never in history have two earthquakes of such massive proportions ever occurred back to back, year over year like that. Profound! We can calculate this to be a probability of ~ 1 in 2010. "For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?" (Rev. 6.17) does follow verse 12.

What follows next is the required rare lunar eclipse. There are 4 kinds of lunar eclipses. The rarest is the Hybrid occurring about 5% of the time. And there are 3 kinds of Hybrids--the rarest which is the H3 occurring 5% of the time. And they are even more rare according to NASA when they are the long version lasting more than 1 minute 30 seconds. It just so happens the 4th long H3 since Christ will be Nov. 3, 2013. Wowsy wowsers! It won't happen again till 2172. I am now getting interested. My interest is peaked!

Since this long H3 has occurred 3 times since Christ over 2012 years, the chance of it occurring in 2013 just before the Tetrads 2014/15 to maintain the proper sequence in Revelation 6.12, gives us a probability of ~ 1 in 700. Amazingly rare stuff! And the probability of this correct order of these three events is 1 in 6.

Thirdly, is the required rare lunar eclipse 2014/15. Since Rev. 6.12 occurs before the Tribulation starts with the first rapture "before the throne" (Rev. 7.9) in 3rd heaven before the 1st trumpet (8.7) of the Tribulation, and these three events are most certainly these three of events of 2010-15, we can be confident the 7 year Tribulation can't start before 2015.

However, the Tribulation can't end any later than 2023, the latest possible date for Jesus' return, because "right at the door" (Matt. 24.33) after Israel is a nation again (v.32) in 1948 by all accounts should not be more than a lifetime, and a lifetime is no more than 75 years (Ps. 90.10). 75 years divided by 2000 years ~ 4%. 20% nor even 10% should be considered right at the door, but 4% seems quite reasonable as being right at the door and certainly within a lifetime at most. So we have two possible choices for the Tribulation. Either 2015-22 or 2016-23. Which is the correct one?

Incidentally, 2520 is the smallest number divisible by all numbers from 2 to 10 so we see this as significant and not just some coincidence as a basic prophetic working unit Daniel discovered. There needs to be 2,520 days from the beginning feast to an ending holiday. The last 3 feasts of Israel pertain to His second coming, while the first 4 feasts already dealt with His first coming. Feast of Trumpets, the first of the last 3 feasts, deals with rapture. Since the first rapture "before the throne" (Rev. 7.9) occurs first before the Tribulation starts with its first trumpet (8.7), the 2,520 days should begin on Feast of Trumpets.

What is the 2,520th day from Feast of Trumpets 2015 to the year 2022? it is a Sunday Aug. 7. But there is no holiday on that Sunday. With a little more investigation one finds out that Aug. 6 is Tisha B'Av, but it says right there in Wiki that whenever it falls on Saturday (Sabbath) it is held the day after instead. Praise the Lord! What a stroke of luck that was! Tisha B'Av is the date the 1st and 2nd Temples were destroyed. Jesus returns to reign in the 3rd Temple. The odds of Tisha B'Av held over from Saturday to Sunday is 1 in 7. What about from 2016 to 2023? There is no holiday in the vicinity for the 2,520th day from 2016 to 2023. There you have it. Case solved! As it turns out 7 out of every 19 years the 2,520th day lands on Tisha B'Av. Go figure! The odds of Jesus returning on the day He was resurrected is 1 in 7.

The final clue is that as a reenactment of the declaration to rebuild the Temple, we find that there are exactly 7 sets of 7 from June 7, 1967 when Israel reclaimed Jerusalem to the Day of Atonement Sept. 23, 2015. Wow! That's 17,640 days (7 x 7 x 360). A deeper study (pleases request this from me) will reveal going back adding up the ages in Israel that 2015 is a Jubilee year as well, once every 50 years. What is also interesting is that there are 2300 days (Dan. 8.14) from the 4th day inspection of the lamb, the day before Passover, to Tisha B'Av when the Temple is cleansed for Jesus steps down on the mount of olives on that day of Aug. 7, 2022 (Zech. 14.4, Acts 1.11, Rev. 1.7).

Let us resist all of Satan's attempts to try to convince us through his wiles that we can't now when the Lord returns.

Jesus then judges the nations for 30 days from the 1260th day of the Great Tribulation to the 1290th day. 45 days more are needed to set up Israel as the center of all nations. Amazingly, yet again, we find that the 1335th day, also another key number in the Bible, lands on the 4th day from Simchat Torah, the last of the Jewish holiday, 2 days after Tabernacles ends--the last of the 7 feasts of Israel.

I am in awe! How about you? Let's run that calculation now.

(1 in 100,000) x (1 in 2010) x (1 in 700) x (1 in 6) x (7 out of 19) x (1 in 7) x (1 in 7) = 1 in 112 trillion.

That is,

1 in 112,000,000,000,000.

Coincidence? I think not.
 
What I am particularly fond of about all this is that the final seven begins on the 120th Jubilee of 6000 years. Some may think isn't that Calvinistic? Not at all. God is placing His divine plan within the span of those 6000 years before His second coming whether people like it or not! We aren't robots.
