Hi Doves,
We understand from scripture, that the Lord observed the 1st Communion on the night of the 14th of Nisan 34 AD.
This was not the night of the Feast of Passover, that was to be observed the following night, by all Jews, on the 15th of Nisan 34 AD.
For we read,
“Now before the Feast of Passover, when Jesus knew that His hour had come…and Supper being ended, the devil having already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son to betray Him.” (John 13:1,2)
We know the Supper in the above verse was the Communion Supper, For Paul said,
“For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you; that the Lord Jesus on the same night (14th of Nisan) in which He was betrayed took bread; and when He had given thanks, he broke it and said, Take, eat, this is My Body which is broken for you…” (1Cor.11:23,24)
The Lord, after His death, the following day, went on to rise from the dead, between Sunset and Sunrise, on the 16th of Nisan 34 AD.
The 16th of Nisan 34 AD, was the Day of First-fruits.
I now believe that the early Church observed the Lord’s Supper, once a year, on the night of the 14th of Nisan.
They then watched for the Lord’s Coming, every Year, on the 16th of Nisan, on the Day of First-fruits, between sunset and sunrise!
I believe this is why Paul said,
“For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death till He comes.” (1Cor.11:26)
I, with my family, will be observing the Holy Supper on the night of the 14th of Nisan. This year it falls on the 8th of April 2009.
I will be watching for the Lord’s coming between Sunset and Sunrise on the 16th of Nisan.
This falls, this Year, from Sunset on the 10th to Sunrise on the 11th of April 2009.
Everyone would need to synchronise their time to Jerusalem time.
This Year the Sunset on the 10th of April 2009 in Jerusalem starts at 19:05, while Sunrise on the 11th of April 2009 starts at 06:15.
I believe that at some point within this window of time the rapture will occur.
Let’s continue to watch,
Ola.
(April 14, 2009) Obama and the bow
Revelation 6:1-2 from the NIV
Revelation 6
The Seals
1I watched as the Lamb opened the first of the seven seals. Then I heard one of the four living creatures say in a voice like thunder, “Come!” 2I looked, and there before me was a white horse! Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest.
The link following is a news article about Obama’s new dog Bo taking a bow before some reporters. First he took a bow before the king of Saudi Arabia, now his dog is named Bo which phonetically sounds as bow and he also bows. Does he want to alert the world about the first seal of revelation where the Antichrist is given a bow. All this bow thing now after passover looks to me that he knows that last week the first seal was opened in heaven. Remember in my previous posts I asked the Lord if the Apocalypse was starting in Passover to start the final week of the 70 weeks of the prophet Daniel. It sure looks to me that this is the case and he is crazy about telling all his minions about it at every chance he gets, even with his dog. Another observation the name of the dog BO are his initials Barack Obama. Call it what you want, but it looks egocentric and narcissistic.
