STAR SIGN & DECEMBER 18-26TH – THE HANUKKAH MYSTERY
First of all, credit is given to Steve Fletcher and others for this information. I am simply adding notes in an attempt make sense out of ALL THE CLUES.
You may remember all of the excitement over the 9-23-2017 STAR SIGN of Revelation 12 and the possibility that the rapture would take place on that date. It was pointed out that the last BLOOD RED MOON of the Luna Tetrad in 2015 fell exactly 726 days BEFORE the Star Sign.
The number 726 in Strong’s mean RAPTURE:
| Strong’s Concordance harpazó: to seize, catch up, snatch away Definition: to seize, catch up, snatch away Usage: I seize, snatch, obtain by robbery. HELPS Word-studies 726 harpázō – properly, seize by force; snatch up, suddenly and decisively – like someone seizing bounty (spoil, a prize); to take by an open display of force (i.e. not covertly or secretly). |
First of all, the RAPTURE IS AN OPEN EVENT, a plainly VISIBLE EVENT that will show the entire world that the Bible was TRUE ALL ALONG. It will BLINDSIDE the entire world; it will come as a TOTAL SHOCK, and I believe THIS EVENT IS THE BIBLE’S SUDDEN DESTRUCTION, because this ties the Luna Tetrad of 2014 and 2015 that book-ended Passover-Tabernacles TWICE, a sign for Israel and the Church to get ready. They were a 7 year (7 day) warning.
Many mocked the STAR SIGN and dismissed it as being valid. As said before the CONCEPTION COMET is what proved that the STAR SIGN was in fact totally valid and CONFIRMED that that event WAS THE EVENT OF REVELATION 12. This tied together the STAR SIGN and the rapture event. They are all connected. But what does it all mean? Nothing happened. 7 years later in 2021 and 2022 we had another Tetrad. So far, no rapture. Lots of signs but no rapture. Meanwhile Satan’s minions rise up to take control over humanity.
Is all of this just more SIGNS for something yet to come in 2023 or 2024? One of these days only known to God the Father, Jesus will be given the nod and the rapture will occur. Many folks don’t believe in any rapture, or place in the yet distant future. But if COSMIC SIGNS DON’T MEAN ANYTHING, then why are we told in Genesis they do? Why did Jesus say they do?
I believe that all of this DELAY, and we were told there would be, from our perspective, a DELAY. Why? Is this a SIFTING OPERATION to see who hangs “in there” and those that abandon the faith? Those that mock and laugh at us because we have both hope and patience? Peter warned about the mockers and scoffers that would rise up WITHIN THE CHURCH. They have from BEFORE the STAR SIGN right up to now. However, if SIGNS don’t mean ANYTHING, why did Jesus tell us to watch?
Now the Lord outlined 7 Feast Days for Israel:
Remember that Jesus said He would return at a time “we know not” which sort of indicates that it MIGHT NOT be on one of the SEVEN FEASTS, which gives us a total picture of the redemption from Passover through to Tabernacles. However, the Feast of Trumpets is the most popular for the rapture, because no one knows the day or the hour when it will be. The last three Feasts appear to be for Israel and seem to point to the end of Daniel’s 70th week.
The Feast of Dedication or Hanukkah is not with these 7 Feasts. It is separate and only mentioned in the NEW TESTAMENT. This may be an important clue. This celebration is also known as the Festival of Lights, another clue. There are 9 candles:
Festival of Lights
In Modern Hebrew, Hanukkah may also be called the Festival of Lights (Hebrew: חַג הַאוּרִים, Ḥag HaUrim), based on a comment by Josephus in Antiquities of the Jews, καὶ ἐξ ἐκείνου μέχρι τοῦ δεῦρο τὴν ἑορτὴν ἄγομεν καλοῦντες αὐτὴν φῶτα “And from then on we celebrate this festival, and we call it Lights”. The first Hebrew translation of Antiquities (1864) used חג המאורות “Festival of Lamps” but the translation “Festival of Lights” appeared by the end of the nineteenth century.[18]
Unknown to Israel and the reasons they celebrate this special 8-day Festival is a HIDDEN MESSAGE TO THE CHURCH. The cleansing and re-dedication of the temple also points directly to Jesus Christ, who “cleanses our personal temple IF we are dedicated to Him and OBEY His commands. This Festival points DIRECTLY to Jesus Christ and Pentecost. Jesus said He was THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. The number 8 means NEW BIRTH, NEW CREATION, NEW BEGINNING. Why is this celebration only mentioned in the NEW TESTAMENT? Is it because Jesus Christ is THE NEW COVENANT? Why is it called the Feast of Dedication? Could it be that Jesus Christ commanded HIS PEOPLE to be devoted exclusivity to Him? That it takes TRUE DEDICATION to enter in at the STRAIT GATE and walk the NARROW WAY to the light of LIFE?
Jesus was dedicated to THE FATHER. He obeyed. Here is an interesting observation concerning the NINE candles. We know there are Seven Feast Days. The Hanukkah menorah has 9 CANDLES/LAMPS. There are TWO other very important celebrations that appear to be directed at Jesus Christ. They are Tu’B’Av the LOVE FEAST and Hanukkah! That makes 9! Is the HIDDEN MEANING of the 9 Candles ALL ABOUT JESUS CHRIST, REDEMPTION and REMOVAL OF HIS CHURCH? It appears so. Remember Jesus Christ is HIDDEN.
So we have Passover, Unleavened Bread, Firstfruits, Pentecost, Trumpets, Atonement & Tabernacles that show us the entire redemption process. Then we have Tu’B’Av and Hanukkah that show us WHO CHRIST IS (DIVINE LOVE), these last two REVEAL CHRIST. The number 9 means DIVINE COMPLETENESS. These nine feasts COMPLETE the process of both the WORK and REVELATION of Christ!
It was during this Festival of LIGHTS that Jesus revealed to the Jews WHO HE REALLY WAS. They refused to believe Him, and they attempted to KILL HIM, but He ESCAPED THEIR ATTEMPT. As stated before, it appears that Jesus simply either cloaked Himself or He TELEPORTED Himself away from them. It was during this Festival that Jesus resurrected Lazarus from the DEAD, which points to RESURRECTION. The Lord works in codes, and in parables. Much of it HIDDEN unless one is DEDICATED to finding out what it all means.
So we have connected directly to Hanukkah:
- Revelation of Christ (as Christ will do to the True Dedicated believer).
- The RESURRECTION of the Dead (The dead rise first, then removal of the living in Christ)
- The attempted KILLING of Christ (Psalm Two War & persecution)
- The EXTRA OIL that kept the lamps burning. (10 VIRGINS PARABLE).
- The GREAT ESCAPE – Rapture of the Church
So are there other clues here we need to look at? Many, in fact.
I will start with the STAR SIGN. There is no question that the star sign was for both Israel and the Church. It was all about the birth of the man-child, and the Church is also known as both THE BRIDE and THE MANCHILD. That’s another investigation.
Please notice that December 18th STARTS this Festival of Lights. This ties directly to what Steve and others have pointed out as to God telling Haggai that on THIS VERY DAY, God will once again SHAKE THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH and CAST DOWN or THROW DOWN the WORLD ORDER. That all happens during the tribulation period.
John 8:12
12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
Is it possible that December 18th is a day of great shaking or EARTHQUAKE that is in fact a SEVEN DAY WARNING TO DECEMBER 25/26TH, or could it be the RAPTURE ITSELF? No one knows, so we wait, and occupy. The reason I bring this up is that from the STAR SIGN to DECEMBER 25th, which is Christmas day, the 7th day of Hanukkah is 1918 days in between:
1918 means:
| Strong’s Concordance epigambreuó: to marry Definition: to marry Usage: I take to wife after, marry a deceased brother’s wife. |
Unless I am reading this all wrong, are we not to go to a wedding feast in the Father’s House? Is that not what Jesus told us? All of this is related to the RETURN COVENANT of Jesus? That He promised to come for HIS BRIDE and take her to the Father’s House?
Now 1920 days inclusive means:
| Strong’s Concordance epiginomai: to come on, arrive Definition: to come on, arrive Usage: I arise, spring up, arrive, come on. |
Sounds like a possible Rapture, phase one of the Return is Christ arriving to steal His Bride. Now as you all know, the number 7 means COMPLETE. Now to the 8th day and GREAT DAY and END OF HANUKKAH. That is December 26th/27th depending upon where you are on Earth. That is 1921 days from the STAR SIGN.
Strong’s 1921:
| Strong’s Concordance epiginóskó: to know exactly, to recognize Definition: to know exactly, to recognize Usage: I come to know by directing my attention to him or it, I perceive, discern, recognize; aor: I found out |
So on the 8th day of Hanukkah, we have 1921 days INCLUSIVE from the STAR SIGN, and it means to KNOW EXACTLY, TO RECOGNIZE. Almost identical to when the believer who has entered the strait gate and walked the narrow way and MEETS JESUS CHRIST. When you MEET JESUS CHRIST, when He MANIFESTS HIMSELF, then YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHO HE IS!
This is of course totally denied by modern Christianity, but it is commanded by Jesus Christ Himself. All of this in now mocked by almost all Christians, including PREACHERS, TEACHERS, EVANGELISTS and PROPHETIC MINISTRIES today. They say all one needs to do is say a “Sinner’s Prayer” and believe and that’s it. This is DIRECT CONTRADICTION to what Jesus Christ said and commanded, but does fulfill the prophecy of Peter of how the apostate Church would SPEAK EVIL OF THE WAY OF TRUTH, which is the STRAIT GATE and NARROW WAY!!
Jesus said He would MANIFEST HIMSELF personally to the believer who did as commanded. That means exactly what it says. The TRUE BELIEVER, THE DEDICATED BELIEVER enters in and walks the walk and FINDS JESUS CHRIST in a one on one personal encounter via DIVINE MANIFESTATION. The TRUE BELIEVER HAS COME TO THE LIGHT OF DIVINE LOVE and has had his/her deeds JUDGED BY THE LIGHT OF DIVINE LOVE.
John 14:20-22
20 At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.
21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
The word MANIFEST means to REVEAL, to TAKE OFF THE COVER, to PERSONALLY SHOW:
G1718
ἐμφανίζω – emphanizō – em-fan-id’-zo
From G1717; to exhibit (in person) or disclose (by words): – appear, declare (plainly), inform, (will) manifest, shew, signify
Now please understand that Jesus says to the obedient believer that LOVES HIM, and is DEDICATED to Him and OBEYS Him, that He, Jesus, the PERSON, WILL MANIFEST HIMSELF to the believer. It does NOT SAY that Jesus will manifest Himself THROUGH the believer, but rather TO THE BELIEVER so they KNOW who HE IS. Is this not exactly what Jesus did to Israel at Hanukkah? He REVEALED HIMSELF but they did not BELIEVE HIM, so they attempted to KILL HIM. Has anything changed?
Just as Israel DID NOT ACCEPT CHRIST in TRUTH, neither does the modern Christian, who mocks and scoffs at any claim you are to MEET JESUS CHRIST ONE ON ONE, AND THAT HE WILL REVEAL HIMSELF TO THAT BELIEVER IN PERSON!! They have reduced Jesus Christ down to a nothing burger, who is so weak and puny that you have to TAKE IT BY FAITH or simply BELIEVE He is within you!
Anyone who has obeyed Jesus Christ and has IN TRUTH met Him KNOWS HOW FULLY EXPERIENTIAL THIS IS. It is like being next to a nuclear explosion! You not only fully KNOW, you will never forget it! This is why Jesus Christ says to the multitudes of Christians in Matthew 7:
Matthew 7:22-24
King James Version
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:
Do you see? If Jesus Christ has manifested Himself to the believer, He could not say he NEVER KNEW THEM. He says that to the rejected Christians because they REFUSED TO NARROW WAY, the ONLY WAY TO FIND HIM, MEET WITH HIM, and COME TO THE LIGHT to have your deeds reproved!
Jesus Christ plainly says that IF YOU LOVE HIM you will do as He commanded. What was His command?
Matthew 7:13-14
13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
So what does this mean to KNOW EXACTLY? Funny all of this is on the 8TH DAY, with the number 8 meaning REBIRTH, NEW CREATION, NEW BEGINNING! I KNOW who Christ is, for I met Him was JUDGED BY HIM, and ACCEPTED HIS OFFER OF SALVATION. I hate to tell people this, but millions of Christians who claim to be BORN AGAIN by their FAITH and BELIEF are lost souls who are under a gigantic satanic deception and are all sent away in Matthew Chapter Seven with a very terse “I NEVER KNEW YOU”. He did not know them because they REFUSED THE STRAIT GATE and NARROW WAY, the only way one can FIND, MEET PERSONALLY, and BE JUDGED by His DIVINE LOVE. First to DIE (narrow way) and then THE JUDGMENT. One must do this while still alive, or when they die physically it is TOO LATE.
Now the days IN BETWEEN are 1919 days. It is contrasted to 1921.
1919 MEANS:
| Strong’s Concordance epigeios: of the earth Definition: of the earth Usage: (a) on the earth, belonging to the earth (as opposed to the sky), (b) in a spiritual sense, belonging to the earthly sphere, earthly (as opposed to heavenly). 1919 epígeios (an adjective, derived from 1909 /epí, “on, fitting” and 1093 /gḗ, “the physical earth”) – properly, upon the earth, referring to earthly (physical) life – i.e. the physical realities that naturally go with daily life. |
What are we seeing? THOSE WHO JESUS CHRIST KNOWS PERSONALLY vs. THOSE WHO DO NOT and are EARTH DWELLERS ONLY. There was never any SPIRITUAL UNION (REBIRTH).
Luke 21:35-37
35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
This is a terrible OMEN for all EARTH DWELLERS and CHRISTIANS who have refused the DIRECT COMMANDS of the LORD to enter in. The only way of ESCAPE is via the DIRECT MANIFESTATION of Jesus Christ to the believer and the TRUE ACCEPTANCE of DIVINE LOVE in TRUE REBIRTH. We are being shown the HUGE DIVIDE between those WHO KNOW JESUS CHRIST and Christian EARTH DWELLERS who “knowest not” that they are not born from above. It is a tragedy.
As said, the number 8 refers to REBIRTH. Is this, the LAST GREAT DAY of Hanukkah on December 26, a resurrection day? Is it possible that December 18th is a SEVEN DAY WARNING? Will Earth be struck by an asteroid or great earthquake or FALSE FLAG event? Or are raptured? No one knows.
Now in Steve’s video he points out how the Luna Tetrads in 2014 & 2015 and then 7 years later in 2021 and 2022 along with eclipses all are exactly 2598 days apart:
Now then in Strong’s the number 2598 means FEAST OF DEDICATION or Hanukkah!! Why would God be giving us such a strong pointer to a Festival only spoken of in the NEW TESTAMENT?
| Strong’s Concordance chanukkah: Definition: dedication, consecration |
What does the word CONSECRATION mean?
consecrate
consecrated; consecrating
: to induct (a person) into a permanent office with a religious rite
especially : to ordain to the office of bishop (Think Rebirth – SCB)
: to make or declare sacred
especially : to devote irrevocably to the worship of God by a solemn ceremony
consecrate a church
: to effect the liturgical transubstantiation of (eucharistic bread and wine)
: to devote to a purpose with or as if with deep solemnity or dedication
3 – to make inviolable or venerable
THE WORD INVIOLABLE:
inviolable
in·vi·o·la·ble (ˌ)in-ˈvī-ə-lə-bəl
: secure from violation or profanation
an inviolable law
2
: secure from assault or trespass : unassailable
inviolable borders
One of the meanings of the word used for rapture is TO ESCAPE FROM DANGER. Did not Jesus ESCAPE FROM DANGER when they tried to KILL HIM when He told them WHO HE WAS?
In the GREEK, the number 2598 means to CAST DOWN, or to THROW DOWN, and most likely refers to Jesus Christ casting down, or throwing down the RICH MEN OF THE EARTH and their fully antichrist world order.
You may have noticed the number 1962. In Strong’s it means:
| Strong’s Concordance hayyah: calamity Definition: calamity |
This means RUIN or DESTRUCTION. This appears to tie directly to SUDDEN DESTRUCTION/RUIN as found here:
1 Thessalonians 5:2-4
2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
There appears to be only ONE EVENT that fulfills this SUDDEN DESTRUCTION “event” and is also tied to THE EARTH DWELLERS that is, “THEY and THEM” as opposed to THE TRUE CHRISTIANS. That event is GLOBAL, it is SUDDEN and totally unexpected. That has to be the RAPTURE OF THE CHURCH. It appears to be tied directly to Jesus coming as a THIEF IN THE NIGHT. This is about Jesus coming to STEAL AWAY (AS A THIEF) HIS CHURCH.
In Revelation, Jesus says He will KEEP US FROM THE HOUR OF TRIAL.
Revelation 3:10
10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
This ties directly to Luke:
Luke 21:35-36
35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
So many will say we have all been here before and nothing happened and they would be 100% accurate! So we wait, we watch, we occupy. The promise of Jesus to RETURN will be fulfilled. Are you READY? Do you know what the word READY MEANS? It is not at all what most believe it means.
