Hanukkah rapture ????

[watching]

Here is an interesting video that was done by a watcher in Croatia.

(Btw, I just want to point out, that it sounds to me like she is saying "show occur" not "shall occur." I just wanted to point that out, so that there is not confusion about date setting, since, obviously, no one knows the day or the hour.)

Ok,, Now I excited again... 8 New Beginning... AND Hanukah is 8 Days? so "No One Knows the Hour or Day:"

OH PLEASE!!!!!!!!! Let this be it!!!!!!!!!

I watched the video- and frankly I don't think her facts are facts at all- since when do we know for a fact that the number of Jesus is 8? Hey by the way my son was born on 8/8/88, maybe that's a sign too??? Hanukkah may be the eighth feast on the Jewish calendar and yes it was celebrated in Christ's day, but it was not a feast mandated by God, but was added by men. There is no biblical requirement to celebrate Hanukkah.

I don't mean to crush anyone's hope in the rapture happening soon, and sure it could be during Hanukkah,who knows, but not for the reasons that this person is claiming.

Sorry but I am not buying it

Yea After calming down I agree.. You know when I look at things around the world and yes things are happening ALITTLE by little I dont think we are near at all.. Way to much has to happen yet.. Im thinking another 25-30 years.
"This Generation" I think means - Mankind..

Should we even be trying to figure out when the rapture occurs? That is not our mandate, our mandate is to occupy until he comes. It will happen when it will happen.

Mar 13:37 And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.

Occupy AND Watch!

[Jericho]

I'm all for watching, but trying to figure out the exact day by calculating some fancy formula is a waste of time imo.

[Ready1]

That is not watching, that is "...trying to figure out the exact day by calculating some fancy formula..."

[Jericho]

True

[watching]

I didn't see her make any fancy calculations.

All I heard her do, was mention seven coincidental facts..........or would be coincidental facts, IF the rapture were to occur on Hanukkah.

One (Jesus and the number 8.)

Two (Jewish Feasts coinciding with gestational cycle.)

Three (On the feast of dedication, Jesus said, "28And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. 29My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. " The word "pluck" in the Greek is the Greek word "harpazo.")

Four (Enoch, who was translated, means "dedicated." Hanukkah is the Feast of Dedication.)

Five (During the miracle of Hanukkah, God provided extra oil. Coincidentally, the five wise virgins will have extra oil.)

Six (40 days after the flood, the arc was lifted. 40 days after Chesvan 17 will be Christmas time.)

Seven (Queen Esther was crowned on the last day of Hanukkah.)

Sorry if I jumped to conclusions watching.

No problem, Sword of Gideon.

I realize that these websites that try to predict the timing of the rapture have gotten a bad rap, because of all the failed predictions.

Nevertheless, I have learned a lot from these sites.

However, I have come to the conclusion that ALMOST ANY DAY, whether it be First Fruits, Feast of Trumpets, etc., or just an ordinary day on the calendar, WOULD BE A GREAT DAY for the Lord to return.

And no matter what day it will be, there will be plenty of scripture to support it.
