Revelation 12:
The Woman and the Dragon | |
| 1 | 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: Gen. 37.9 |
| 2 | and she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. Mic. 4.10 |
| 3 | And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, Dan. 7.7 and seven crowns upon his heads. |
| 4 | And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: Dan. 8.10and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. |
Many people in the "Christian" world feel they understand the Bible. Tens of thousands of books, major commentaries, Bible dictionaries and prophetic writings explain and re-explain it, by thesis and exegesis. How much of this is real understanding?
Of course they did not die physically until many years later, but died spiritually from communion with God immediately.
Literal-ism by those who insist that Moses wrote Genesis as history only, overlook the fact that Moses was a prophet as much as Ezekiel was when he wrote about Lucifer in Ezekiel 28. All of Ezekiel's visions are clearly symbolical, yet the literalist do not insist these have to be interpreted literally. Even actual historic biblical events and characters have divine significance and are used in allegory like Galatians 4:21Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law? 22For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman. 23But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise. 24Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar. 25For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children. 26But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.
Coincidence that these events and characters turned out as allegory? Of course not, every hair on every head is counted, and Ecclesiastes 1:
| 9 | The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. |
| 1 | To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: So all through the Bible we find God's finger writing on the wall of prophesy, types and shadow, forerunners and anti types, similes and allegories, even numbers and divine mathematical repetitive and progressive revelation. God has controlled every word that was written in Holy writ, and even later verse and chapter designations that were added were by his hand. |
Because 12 is one of the four perfect numbers, the number of governmental perfection; hence it is associated with the rule of the heavens, for the sun is given "to rule the day," and the moon "to govern the night." The significance of this, however, must be deferred till we come to consider the number "twelve" under this head. It is enough for us now to notice the fact here, upon the threshold of our subject, that we have one common measure, or factor, which is seen in the 12 signs of the Zodiac, the 36 (3x12) constellations,* the total 48 (4x12); the 360 (12x30) degrees, into which the great circle of the heavens is divided. No one can tell us why the number of degrees was first fixed at 360. It has come down to us from ancient times, and is used universally without a question.** And it is this division of the Zodiac which gives us the 12 months of the Zodiacal year. This is called also the Prophetic year, for it is the year which is used in the prophecies of the Bible.***
* There are other modern constellations now: Hevelius (1611-1687) added twenty-two; Halley (1656-1742) added fifteen. But every one knows how different these are from the ancient constellations, both in their names, their character, and their utter absence of all significance.Here, then, is an example of number as it is used in the heavens. Twelve is the pervading factor.
** It probably arises from the product of the four numbers, 3, 4, 5, 6, which arise out of the phenomena which lie at the root of Geometrical and Arithmetical Science. 3 x 4 x 5 x 6 = 360, while 360 x 7 = 2520.*** There are different or relative kinds of years, according as we reckon the revolutions of the sun in relation to certain objects, e.g.: (1.) In relation to the equinoctial points. The time taken by the sun to return to the same equinoctial point is called the Solar year (also the Civil, or Tropical year), and consists of 365.2422414 solar days (or 365 days 5 hours 48 minutes 49.7 seconds). (2.) In relation to the stars. The time taken by the sun to return to the same fixed star is called the Sidereal year, and consists of 365.2563612 solar days (or 365 days 6 hours 9 minutes 9.6 seconds). (3.) In relation to his own orbit. The time taken by the sun to return to the same point in his own orbit is called the Anomalistic year, and consists of 365.2595981 solar days (or 365 days 6 hours 13 minutes 49.3 seconds). The word "Anomalistic" means irregular, and this kind of year is so called because from it the first irregularities of planetary motion were discovered.
We shall, therefore, avoid man's use of numbers. Our only concern in this work is with God's use of them. Here we shall find both design and significance. Here, therefore, we shall find that which is certain and full of interest.
The first natural division of time is stamped by the Number seven. On the seventh day God rested from His work of Creation.
When He ordained the ritual for Israel which should show forth His work of Redemption, seven is again stamped upon it in all its times and seasons. The seventhday was the holy day; the seventh month was specially hallowed by its number of sacred festivals; the seventh year was the Sabbatic year of rest for the land: while 7 x 7 years marked the year of Jubilee (Lev 25:4,8).
Thirty jubilees bring us from the Exodus to the opening of Christ's ministry, when, opening Isaiah 61:2, He proclaimed "the acceptable year of the Lord" in a seven-fold prophecy (see Luke 4:18-21).
The great symbolical divisions of Israel's history, or rather of the times of God's dealings with them, are marked by the same number; and if we confine ourselves toduration of years rather than to the succession of years and chronological dates; with kairoV (kairos), season, a definitely limited portion of time, rather than withcronoV (chronos), time, the course of time in general* (hence our word "chronology"), —we shall have no difficulty.
* In modern Greek kairoV has come to mean weather, and cronoV, year, thus preserving the essential distinction between the two words.God's dealings with His people have to do with actual duration of time rather than with specific dates; and we find that His dealings with Israel were measured out into four periods, each consisting of 490 (70 times 7) years. Thus:—
The 1st. From Abraham to the Exodus.It is clear that these are periods of duration having regard only to Israel, and to Jehovah's immediate dealings with them. For in each one there is a period of time during which He was not immediately governing them, but in which His hand was removed, and His people were without visible tokens of His presence with them.
The 2nd. The Exodus to the Dedication of Temple.
The 3rd. From the Temple to Nehemiah's return.
The 4th. From Nehemiah to the Second Advent.
| 1. From the birth of Abraham to the Exodus | Years | Total |
|---|---|---|
| From the birth of Abraham to the Exodus was actually (Gen 12:4, 16:3 and 21:5)* | 505 | |
| But deducting the 15 years while Ishmael was Abram's seed, delaying the seed of promise | - 15 | |
| Leaving the first 70 x 7 of years | 490 |
*Abraham was 75 years old when the promise (Gen 12:4) was made to him. The Law was given 430 years after (Exo 12:40; Gal 3:17). But 430 and 75 make 505 years, or 15 years over the 490. How are we to account for this gap of 15 years as forming part of the 505 years? The answer is that at Abraham's departure into Canaan (12:4) he was 75 years old, Ishmael was born 10 years after (16:3), therefore Abraham was 85 years old at Ishmael's birth. But he was 100 years old when Isaac was born (21:5). Therefore it follows that there were 15 years (100 minus 85=15) during which Ishmael was occupying and usurping the place of the "promised seed"; and 15 from 505 leaves 490. Here then we have the first of the seventy-seven of years, and the first "gap" of 15 years.
| 2. From the Exodus to the foundation of the Temple, according to Acts 13:20:* | Years | Total |
|---|---|---|
| In the Wilderness | 40 | |
| Under the Judges | 450 | |
| Saul | 40 | |
| David | 40 | |
| Solomon (1 Kings 6:1,37) | 3 | |
| But from these we must deduct the Captivities under | 573 | |
| Cushan (Judges 3:8) | 8 | |
| Eglon (Judges 3:14) | 18 | |
| Jabin (Judges 4:3) | 20 | |
| Midianites (Judges 6:1) | 7 | |
| Philistines (Judges 13:1)** | 40 | 93 |
| Leaving | 480 | |
| To this we must add the years during which the Temple was in building, for the finishing of the house (1 Kings 6:38) | 7 | |
| And at least for the furnishing and ending of all the work (1 Kings 7:13-51)*** | 3 | |
| Making altogether the second 70 x 7 of years | 490 |
* The actual number of years was 573, according to Acts 13:20. But 1 Kings 6:1 says: "It came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel were come out of Egypt...he began to build the house of the LORD." Therefore commentators immediately conclude that the book is wrong. It never seems to dawn on them thatthey can be wrong. But they are, because the number is ordinal, not cardinal, and it does not say four hundred and eighty years, but "eightieth year." The 480th from or of what? Of the duration of God's dealings with His people, deducting the 93 years while He had "sold them" into the hands of others. Thus there is no discrepancy between 1 Kings 6:1 and Acts 13:20. In the Acts the actual number of years is stated in a cardinal number; while in the Kings a certain reckoning is made in an ordinalnumber, and a certain year in the order of God's dealings with His people is named. And yet by some, the inspiration of Acts 13:20 is impugned, and various shifts are resorted to, to make it what man thinks to be correct. The RV adopts an ancient punctuation which does not after all remove the difficulty; while in the Speaker's Commentary the words in 1 Kings 6:1 are printed within brackets, as though they were of doubtful authority.
** The 18 years of Judges 10:8 were part of the joint 40 years' oppression; on the one side Jordan by the Philistines, and on "the other side Jordan in the land of the Amorites" by the Ammonites.*** For in 1 Kings 8:2 it was dedicated in the seventh month, though it was finished in the eighth month. Therefore it could not have been the same year; and it may well have required three years for the completion of all the interior work described in 1 Kings 7:13-51.
| 3. From the Dedication of the Temple to Nehemiah's return in the 20th year of Artaxerxes | Years | Total |
|---|---|---|
| From the dedication to Nehemiah's return (Neh 2:1) | 560 | |
| Deduct the 70 years' Captivity in Babylon (Jer 25:11,12; Dan 9:2) | 70 | |
| Leaving the third 70 x 7 years | 490 |
| 4. From Nehemiah's return to "cutting off" of "Messiah the Prince" (Dan 9:24-27) | Years | Total |
|---|---|---|
| The "Seven weeks" (7x7) | 49 | |
| The "Threescore and two weeks" (62x7) | 434 | |
| "After" this, Messiah was to be "cut off," and then comes this present interval, the longest of all, now more than 1890 years, to be followed, when God again deals with His people Israel, by "One week"* | 7 | |
| 490 |
* This "one week" must be future, because since Messiah was "cut off" no prince has come and made a covenant with the Jews and in the "midst of the week" caused "the sacrifice and the oblation to cease." This is specially stated to be the work of "the Prince that shall come." See Daniel 8:11, where it is done by "the little horn"; 11:31, where it is the work of "the vile person" (different names for the same person); and 12:11. All these four passages are the work of the same person, and that person is not Christ, but Antichrist. Besides, Messiah was "cut off" after the "threescore and two weeks," i.e., at the end of the second of these three divisions. This cannot be the same event as that which is to take place "in the midst" of the third of these three divisions. In a prophecy so distinct, that the very distinction is the essential part of it, it is impossible for us to introduce such confusion by violently taking an event declared to take place "after" the end of the second period and say it is the same event which is spoken of as taking place in the middle of the third; and at the same time, out of four distinct descriptions of the latter event to make one refer to the former and three to the latter—this is simply trifling with the Word of God. A system of interpretation which requires such violent and unwarranted treatment of God's Word stands self-condemned.Thus the number seven is stamped on "the times and seasons" of Scripture, marking the spiritual perfection of the Divine Prophecies.

The grains in Indian corn, or maize, are set in rows, generally straight, but in some cases spirally. These rows are always arranged in an even number. Never odd! They range from 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, and sometimes as high as 24. But never in 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, or any odd number of rows. The even number is permanent. Mr. H. L. Hastings tells of one farmer who looked for 27 years and could not find a "cob" with an odd number of rows. A slave was once offered his freedom if he found a corn-cob with an odd number, and one day he found one! But he had found it also some time before, when it was young; carefully cut out one row, and bound it up, so that the parts grew together as the corn-cob developed, and finally presented the phenomenon of having an odd number of rows. This exception proves the rule in an interesting manner.
If we notice how the leaves grow upon the stem of a plant, not only is law seen in classifying their nature and character, but number is observed in their arrangement and disposition. Some are placed alternately, some opposite, while others are arranged spirally. But in each case all is in perfect order. After a certain number of leaves one will come immediately over and in the same line with the first:—
- In the apple it is the fifth leaf,
- In the oak it is the fourth,
- In the peach, etc., it is the sixth,
- In the holly, etc., it is the eighth; but it takes two turns of the spiral before the eighth leaf stands immediately over the first.
- In the larch it is the twenty-first leaf; but it is not until after eight turns of the spiral that the twenty-first leaf stands directly over the first.
There are seven Greek words used to describe these seven ages, according to Philo:—
- Infancy (paidion, paidion, child).
- Childhood (paiV, pais boy).
- Youth (meirakion, meirakion, lad, stripling).
- Adolescence (neaniskoV, neaniskos, young man).
- Manhood (anhr, aner, man).
- Decline (presbuthV, presbutes, old man).
- Senility (gerwn, geron, aged man).
With INSECTS the ova are hatched from seven half-days (as the wasp, bee, etc.); while with others it is seven whole days. The majority of insects require from 14 (2x7) to 42 (6x7) days; the same applies to the larva state.
With ANIMALS the period of gestation of—
The mouse is 21 (3x7) days.With BIRDS, the gestation of—
The hare and rat, 28 (4x7) days.
The cat, 56 (8x7) days.
The dog, 63 (9x7) days.
The lion, 98 (14x7) days.
The sheep, 147 (21x7) days.
The common hen is 21 (3x7) days.With the Human species it is 280 days (or 40x7).Moreover, man appears to be made on what we may call the seven-day principle. In various diseases the seventh, fourteenth, and twenty-first are critical days; and in others seven or 14 half-days. Man's pulse beats on the seven-day principle, for Dr. Stratton points out that for six days out of the seven it beats faster in the morning than in the evening, while on the seventh day it beats slower. Thus the number seven is stamped upon physiology, and he is thus admonished, as man, to rest one day in seven. He cannot violate this law with impunity, for it is interwoven with his very being. He may say "I will rest when I please,"— one day in ten, or irregularly, or not at all. He might as well say of his eight-day clock, "It is mine, and I will wind it up when I please." Unless he wound it at least once in eight days, according to the principle on which it was made, it would be worthless as a clock. So with man's body. If he rests not according to the Divine law, he will, sooner or later, be compelled to "keep his sabbaths," and the rest which he would not take at regular intervals, at God's command, he has to take at the command of man all at once! Even in this case God gives him more rest than he can get for himself; for God would have him take 52 days' rest in the year, and the few days' "change" he is able to get for himself is a poor substitute for this. It is like all man's attempts to improve on God's way.
The duck, 42 (6x7) days.
It is not always seven, however, which is the predominant factor in physiology or natural history.
In the case of the BEE, it is the number three which pervades its phenomena—
- In three days the egg of the queen is hatched.
- It is fed for nine days (3x3).
- It reaches maturity in 15 days (5x3).
- The worker grub reaches maturity in 21 days (7x3).
- And is at work three days after leaving its cell.
- The drone matures in 24 days (8x3).
- The bee is composed of three sections,— head and two stomachs.
- The two eyes are made up of about 3,000 small eyes, each (like the cells of the comb) having six sides (2x3).
- Underneath the body are six (2x3) wax scales with which the comb is made.
- It has six (2x3) legs. Each leg is composed of three sections.
- The foot is formed of three triangular sections.
- The antennae consist of nine (3x3) sections.
- The sting has nine (3x3) barbs on each side.
All matter is made up of certain combinations of various elements, which are its ultimate, indecomposable constituents. Not that these elements are absolutely simple, but that hitherto they have not been decomposed. Some of these have been known from the most ancient times, while others are of quite recent discovery. Hence their number is slowly being increased. In 1874 there were 64; now there are about 70.
But though their total number cannot yet be known, the law by which they are arranged has been discovered. This law is complex, but perfect.
1. All the elements when magnetized fall into two classes. One class immediately ranges itself east and west, at right angles to the line of magnetic force (which is north and south), and is hence called Diamagnetic (i.e. through or across the magnet); while the other immediately ranges itself by the side of and parallel to the magnetic pole (i.e. north and south), and is called Paramagnetic (i.e. by the side of the magnet).
2. Further, it is observed that these elements have other properties. Some combine with only one atom of another element, and are called Monads; some combine with only two atoms of another element, and are called Diads; some combine with only three, and are called Triads: while those that combine with four are calledTetrads, etc.
3. Now when the elements are arranged, first on the two sides of the dividing line, according to their Diamagnetic and Paramagnetic characters; and then placed on lines according to their properties as Monads, Diads, etc.; and further, are arranged in the order of their atomic weights,* the result is seen in the accompanying illustration [Reynold's Curve of the Elements according to the Newlands-Mendelejeff Periodic Law], which exhibits the presence and working of a wonderful law.
* The atomic weight is the smallest weight according to which different elements combine; e.g. hydrogen, whose atomic weight is 2, will combine with oxygen, whose atomic weight is 16, forming water. With carbon, whose atomic weight is 12, it combines also the same proportion of 2 to 12 (or 1 to 6). These are what are called the atomic weights, or the "combining proportions."On carefully examining this table it will be seen,—1. That on either side of the central or neutral line, there are alternate groups of seven elements, and that these seven fall into the form of an introversion, Monadanswering to Monad, Diad to Diad, etc., thus:—
| Monad >>>>> | Diad >>>>> | Triad >>>>> | |
| Tetrad | |||
| Monad >>>>> | Diad >>>>> | Triad >>>>> |
2. Next observe that each time the line crosses upward from right to left there is a group of three neutral elements that occur together, near the atomic weights of 60, 100, and 190. So perfect is the law that the discoverers believe that about the points 20 and 155 there are yet two sets of three elements to be discovered...
3. Also observe that when the lines pass upward from left to right there are no elements whatever on this neutral line, and therefore we do not expect any to be discovered.
4. Further, that there are others which will yet be discovered to fill in the gaps that are left vacant, above the weights 145. A few years ago the number stood at 64. The present list contains 69. Some newly-discovered elements have been brought under notice while writing these words. They are Cerium, 141.5; Neodymium, 140.8; Praseodunium, 143.6; and "Ytterbium," 173. These with others that may yet be discovered will fill up some of the gaps that remain.
5. There is an element whose atomic weight is a multiple of 7 (or very nearly so) for every multiple up to 147, while the majority of the others are either square numbers (or multiples of a square number), multiples of 11, or cube numbers. Indeed we may say that every important element is a multiple of either 4 or 7; gold, the most valuable, for example, being 196 (4x72); iron, the most useful, 56 (7x23); silver being 108 (4x27, or 22x33), copper 63 (7x9), carbon 12 (3x4), mercury200 (4x50), bismuth 208 (4x52), etc.*
* Where the others are not exact multiples of these numbers, they are so nearly exact that the slight uncertainty in the accepted weights might account for some of the differences.6. Note that all the parts of the image which Nebuchadnezzar saw in his dream are here, and they are all on the left or diamagnetic side; that is to say, they are atcross purposes with the line of Divine government! The three which are pure and unmixed are all on the same line of monads—"gold," "silver," and "copper,"—while the fourth, "iron," is neutral, neither for nor against, like the fourth power, which is both religious and at the same time antichristian. The heaviest is at the top and the lightest at the bottom, as though to show us that the image being top-heavy is not destined to stand. Three have already passed away; the fourth is approaching its end; and presently, the "power" which was committed to the Gentiles shall be given to Him "whose right it is," and the fifth monarchy (illustrated by the Rock out of which all the others proceed) shall swallow all up when the kingdoms of this world shall become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ.Thus the very elements of matter are all arranged according to number and law. When this law was first spoken of, it appeared to some chemists to be as absurd as suggesting that the alphabetical arrangement could be the scientific or natural order.
But here we have a natural, or rather, we should say, a Divine order. For the elements, when arranged according to the weights and properties which God has given to them, are found to fall into this wondrous order. Here there can be no room for human fancy, but all is the result of knowledge, or science truly so called.
Experiments have long been completed which fix the number of vibrations for each musical note; by which, of course, we may easily calculate the difference between the number of vibrations between each note.
These were finally settled at Stuttgart in 1834. They were adopted by the Paris Conservatoire in 1859, but it was not till 1869 that they were adopted in England by the Society of Arts. The following is the scale of Do showing the number of vibrations in a second under each note and the differences between them:—
| C Do | D Re | E Mi | F Fa | G Sol | A La | B Si | C Do | |||||||
| 264 (24x11) | (33) | 297 (27x11) | (33) | 330 (30x11) | (22) | 352 (32x11) | (44) | 396 (36x11) | (44) | 440 (40x11) | (55) | 495 (45x11) | (33) | 528 (48x11) |
On examining the above it will be at once seen that the number eleven is stamped upon music; and we may say seven also, for there are seven notes of the scale (the eighth being the repetition of the first).
The number of vibrations in a second, for each note, is a multiple of eleven, and the difference in the number of vibrations between each note is also a multiple of eleven. These differences are not always the same. We speak of tones and semitones, as though all tones were alike, and all semitones were alike; but this is not the case. The difference between the semitone Mi and Fa* is 22; while between the other semitone, Si and Do, it is 33. So with the tones: the difference between the tone Do and Re, for example, is 33; while between Fa and Sol it is 44; between Sol and La it is 44; and between La and Si it is 55.
* In using this notation it is worth recording and remembering, in passing (though it is hardly relevant to our subject), the origin of what is now called Solfeggio. It arose from a Mediaeval hymn to John the Baptist which had this peculiarity that the first six lines of the music commenced respectively on the first six successive notes of the scale, and thus the first syllable of each line was sung to a note one degree higher than the first syllable of the line that preceded it:—The ear can detect and convey these vibrations to the brain only within certain limits. Each ear has within it a minute organ, like a little harp, with about ten thousandstrings. These organs were discovered by an Italian named Corti, and hence have been named "the organs of Corti." When a sound is made, the corresponding string of this little harp vibrates in sympathy, and conveys the impression to the brain. The immense number of these little strings provides for the conveyance of every conceivable sound within certain limits. In the scale, as we have seen, there is a range of 264 vibrations. There is a difference between each one, so that there are practically 264 notes in the scale, but the ear cannot detect them. The ear of a skilled violinist can detect many more than an ordinary untrained ear. The mechanical action of a pianoforte can record only twelve of these notes. The violin can be made to produce a much larger number, and is therefore more perfect as an instrument, but not equal in this respect to the human voice. The wonderful mechanism of the human voice, being created by God, far excels every instrument that man can make.There are vibrations which the ear cannot detect, so slow as to make no audible sound, but there are contrivances by which they can be made visible to the eye. When sand is thrown upon a thin metal disc, to which a chord is attached and caused to vibrate, the sand will immediately arrange itself in a perfect geometrical pattern. The pattern will vary with the number of the vibrations. These are called "Chladni's figures." Moist plaster on glass or moist water-colour on rigid surfaces will vibrate at the sound, say, of the human voice, or of a cornet, and will assume forms of various kinds—geometrical, vegetable and floral; some resembling ferns, others resembling leaves and shells, according to the pitch of the note.
Ut queant laxisBy degrees these syllables became associated and identified with their respective notes, and as each syllable ended with a vowel they were found to be peculiarly adapted for vocal use. Hence Ut was artificially replaced by "Do." Guido of Arezzo was the first to adopt them in the 11th century, and Le Maire, a French musician of the 17th century, added "Si" for the seventh note of the scale, in order to complete the series. It might have been formed from the initial letters of the two words in this line, S and I.
Re-sonare fibris
Mi-ra gestorum
Fa-muli tuorum
Sol-ve polluti
La-bii reatum
Sancto Iohannes
The "Pendulograph" is another contrivance for rendering these vibrations visible to the eye; and for exhibiting depths of sound which are totally inaudible to the ear. The pen is attached to one pendulum and the paper to the other, and these are made to oscillate at right angles with each other. When each pendulum is set at the same length (making the same number of vibrations in the same time), the figure made by the pen will be a perfect circle. But when these lengths (or vibrations) vary, the patterns that are described are as exquisite as they are marvelous, and almost infinite in their variety and design.
Even the organs of Corti are limited in their perception, notwithstanding the many thousands of minute vibrating chords. When these organs are perfect or well formed there is what is called "an ear for music." But in many cases there is "no ear for music." This means that these organs are defective, not fully developed, or malformed, in the case of such persons; and that the sounds are not accurately conveyed to the brain.
There is a solemn and important truth therefore in the words, "He that planted the ear"! (Psa 94:9). What wondrous planting!
Not every one has this peculiar (musical) "ear." And no one has by nature that ear which can distinguish the things of God. The spiritual ear is the direct gift and planting of God. Hence it is written, "He that hath an ear," i.e., only he that hath that divinely-planted, God-given ear can hear the things of the Spirit of God. "An ear to hear" those spiritual things is a far greater reality, and an infinitely greater gift, than an ear for music! Oh wondrous ear! It is the Lord that gives "the hearing ear" (Prov 20:12). He wakeneth the ear to hear (Isa 50:4); It is the Lord that openeth the ear (Isa 50:5). The natural ear does not hear spiritual sounds; it cannot discern them (Isa 64:4 and 1 Cor 2:9). Thus nature and grace illustrate each other, and reveal the great fact that there is a secret ear, more delicate than any "organs of Corti," that can detect sounds invisible as well as inaudible to the senses, and which enables those who possess it to say:—
"Sweeter sounds than music knows
Charm me in Emanuel's name;
All her hopes my spirit owes
To His birth, and cross, and shame."
Hence there are seven colours answering to the seven musical sounds, and it is found that sounds which harmonize, correspond with colours that harmonize. While discords in colour correspond with discords in music.
The seven, both in music and colour, are divided into three and four. Three primary colours and four secondary, from which all others proceed, answer to the three primary sounds called the Tri-chord, or common chord, and four secondary.
The subject is too abstruse to enlarge further upon here. Sufficient has been said to show that in the works of God all is perfect harmony, order and symmetry, both in number and design; and one corresponds with the other in a real and wonderful manner.
The one great question now is, May we not expect to find the same phenomena in that greatest of all God's works, viz., His Word? If not the greatest in some senses, yet it is the greatest in its importance to us. For if we find in it the same corresponding perfection in design, then we see throughout the whole of it the same mysterious autograph. And its truths, and promises, and precepts come to us with increased solemnity and power; for the words of the book say with the stars of heaven
All false religion with it's secret societies are born of that pattern. 2012 is the Chinese New Year of the Dragon...coincidence? Coincidence that China is rising into dominance and power and The Dragon gives the Beast his power? And that the Dragon is the 12th sign of the Chinese Year? And that Revelation 12 is about the Dragon and the Woman with the crown of 12 stars on her head? Coincidence that the 12th sign of the zodiac is Sagittarius, a man-beast hunter as Nimrod? And coincidence that the one who rides the white horse of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse with a bow & arrow is picture of Antichrist? |
| Revelation is the 66th book of the Bible, Rev Ch 6= 666? More coincidence? "And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer." |
Gen 10:8 10 + 8 = 18 (666) 6+6+6=18 more coincidence? Gen 10:8 And Cush begat Nimrod:(666... the number of his name) he began to be a mighty one in the earth.( here we see the Cursed lineage of Ham stamped with 666)
9He was a mighty hunter before the LORD: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the LORD. (he hunts the souls of men)
10And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
Revelation 12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

Nimrod was king/god over the seven city-nations who worshiped Nimrod/satan from their "High places of human sacrafice/prostitution etc..." that their satanic "arc-demons" were over. "for we wrestle not against flesh and blood but against principalities against powers, against spiritual wickedness in HIGH PLACES, against the RULERS of the darkness of THIS WORLD." Eph 6:12(12+6=18=666)
Not including Babel, "Babylon" the capital and highest place, we see Babylon sitting on"SEVEN" city/states that make up this dark kingdom. So the SEVEN MOUNTAINS (high places) represent all false religion usurping God's place (7) of Deity including atheistic, agnostic or any "HIGH THING THAT EXALTETH IT"SELF AGAINST THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD." II Cor 10:4-6
Revelation 12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.
Why rejoice? Because New Jerusalem (a bride adorned, mother of us all) is about to manifest as we see prophesy finalize the work of Christ's redemption of Heaven and Earth!
Why rejoice? Because New Jerusalem (a bride adorned, mother of us all) is about to manifest as we see prophesy finalize the work of Christ's redemption of Heaven and Earth!
The New Jerusalem
1Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. 2I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 4He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”
5He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”
6He said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who is thirsty I will give to drink without cost from the spring of the water of life. 7He who overcomes will inherit all this, and I will be his God and he will be my son. 8But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”
9One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.” 10And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God. 11It shone with the glory of God, and its brilliance was like that of a very precious jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal. 12It had a great, high wall with twelve gates, and with twelve angels at the gates. On the gates were written the names of the twelve tribes of Israel. 13There were three gates on the east, three on the north, three on the south and three on the west. 14The wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
15The angel who talked with me had a measuring rod of gold to measure the city, its gates and its walls. 16The city was laid out like a square, as long as it was wide. He measured the city with the rod and found it to be 12,000 stadiaa in length, and as wide and high as it is long. 17He measured its wall and it was 144(12x12) cubitsb thick,c by man’s measurement, which the angel was using. 18The wall was made of jasper, and the city of pure gold, as pure as glass. 19The foundations of the city walls were decorated with every kind of precious stone. The first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald, 20the fifth sardonyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst.d 21The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each gate made of a single pearl. The great street of the city was of pure gold, like transparent glass.
22I did not see a temple in the city, because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. 23The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp. 24The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their splendor into it. 25On no day will its gates ever be shut, for there will be no night there. 26The glory and honor of the nations will be brought into it. 27Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life.
Is 2012 the beginning of tribulation?

Elisha asked for double anointing of
Elijah. Elijah was a type of the 11th
hour Church ministry. Elisha a type of
the second coming of the Lord anointing
the Church double as they are in
Resurrected bodies, who with the Lord
destroys the Antichrist as Elijah/Elisha
destroyed Ahab/Jezebel through Jehu
(strength of Jehovah) Ahab/ Jezebel a
type of Nimrod/Mystery Babylon.
Since the pattern has been an actual human figure(s) has manifested as type and shadow of Nimrod and Semiramis, Ahab & Jezebel, Herod & Herodius etc...will we expect to see a "personification" of "The Whore?"
The scriptural problem is that we get the role of Semiramis ( By name...but referred to as the 'Queen of Heaven' whom they made cakes to) not from cannon scripture, but extra biblical sources. Daniel paints the end time Antichrist figure as one who has no desire of "women" Daniel 11:37
Whether he is active homosexual or a sexual is up for speculation. But the absence of Semiramis in the Genesis account is perhaps bound by the interpretive principle of "law of first mention." And that is that the "true anti type" will be without a female personification, and that personification is embodied in "Babylon The Great City." (allegory)
As Nimrod was the Son of Cush, who was of Ham, whom evil pervaded through as a type of demonic succession, we can see how God has allowed the "sins of the fathers" to be inherited through the flesh. "That which is of the flesh is flesh, that which is of the Spirit is spirit." Ham represents the "Flesh" as he and his lineage was cursed for his sin against Noah. Shem, the lineage from which Christ would come and Japheth took the second son position from Ham, symbolizing Shem (Spirit) Japheth (Soul) Ham (Flesh)
As Judas Iscariot is referred to as "The son of perdition"... and so is the end time Antichrist figure, we again see a tpe and shadow of Judas where no wife or female figure is associated as prophetic typing is concerned.
The prophets Elijah and Elisha are another tandem type of a Joseph/Moses and John/Jesus ministry. Elijah is an 11th Hour type and shadow because we can see he faced the same obstacles as did Joseph without the picture of the 12 tribes as such, but more so in a prophet/preacher picture. Like Joseph, Elijah faced Jezebel herself, who we face as the MYSTERY BABYLON ( same spirit) Joseph ran from Potiphers wife as Elijah ran from Jezebel and hid under the Juniper tree in his "prison" until God strengthened and delivered him .
Elijah's most prominent likeness to the 11th hour Church of course is that before the Elisha/Jesus ministry could appear, ( Elisha thru Jehu destroyed Jezebel) up to Heaven! Again the Elisha/Jesus points to THE SECOND COMING!
Right after Elijah is caught up and leaves his mantle for Elisha, in 2 Kings 1, we see Gods 'stamp' in his divine numbers showing us the 11th hour in both our time and the first Pentecost. 50 sons of the prophets
were present to witness Elijah's' rapture and Elisha s' finishing with double portion the prophesy of Elijah, as to Jezebel's destruction.
Which we also see the stamp of '42' of the anti-Christ when the 42 children were torn of the two bears ( two beasts with feet of a bear)
right after the Prophet Elijah (11th Hour ministry church) is caught up, 2 Kings 2:24. This is beyond coincidence and it has been before us all the time but revelation light shines from above when it is being fulfilled, and that is why we can see it in this Hour! So is the 42
years from 1906 to 1948.(Israel becomes Nation again).. coincidence?
The two beasts of Revelation, who tare the 42 children represents Rev 17:16 where God causes the 'ten horns' of the beast, to hate the
Whore, and those people which she 'sitteth upon' who were not 'lovers of the truth and believed a lie'.
So we have seen; Joseph vs Potiphers wife ( Potipher means; contempt) Elijah vs Jezebel, John vs Herodius and the 11th Hour Church vs MYSTERY BABYLON GREAT WHORE.
Precept upon precept upon precept! We see also in 1906 the Zionist movement 'officially' began to create a Jewish State in Palestine and
WW1 and WW2 were all about the dragon trying to destroy the Olive tree, Israel/Church and not the Geo-political issues history records.

Elijah was caught up... raptured... (type of Church) away and immediately Elisha is mocked by "children" saying ''go up thou bald go up!"And the Prophet curses them... and two "bears (Beasts) kill 42. Here we see the 2 beasts of Revelation and their reign of 42 (42 is associated with antichrist) months and the Ten kings kill the Whore.
As Elijah goes up, his mantle comes to Elisha and Elisha fulfills the Prophesy of Elijah that the Dogs of Jezreel will lick the blood of Jezebel. ( a type and foreshadow of Babylon The Great being destroyed.
Jehu (anointed of Elisha) gets Jezebel's Eunuchs to throw her down into the street. Jehu means "strength of Jehovah" 15And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
Rev 17: 16And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. ( as the dogs of Jezreel did to Jezebel) 17For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.
The Hebrew "gematria" of 42 is 4+2=6 which symbolizes "man centered kingdom." 3 is completeness...so 666 is man completely ruling earth in complete rebellion against God.

Now if 2012 begins this scenario, then 2015 1/2 to 2016 1/2 will be when the Antichrist's power is consolidated and he reveals himself and claims to be God. If he is Antichrist personified in one man and not just represented by unbelievers and God haters and apostatized Christians who received the strong delusion from God and believe the lie that mankind and humanism is God.
No man knows the day or hour...but Jesus teaches we can know the season, I am pointing to possible season, not day and hour.
No man knows the day or hour...but Jesus teaches we can know the season, I am pointing to possible season, not day and hour.
And also we have to consider is the time element of seven years literal? Is tribulation longer or exact? Where do we draw the literal line against the symbolical line? If it is to be a literal seven year period, and 2012 is the beginning, then does 2018 line up with the 'pattern?' Once again we see in 2018 double ordination in the number 20, and 666 in the number 18...6+6+6=18. Then 2018 being the last year of the 42 (4+2=6) month reign of the Antichrist, 2019 would be the beginning of Christs reign on earth in the millennium, with the number 3 of divine completion, clearly manifesting with three sets of 10. 20=10+10 and 19 1+9=10=10x3=30. Using the gematria, we cannot give value to zero, so we find in 2019 2+1+9=12! God's divine Government!
Being good stewards we plan for the literal, prepare for God's will however he decides to perform his will, and continue to be amazed at his handiwork and divine design for the ages that cause us to ask, "What is man that God is mindful of him?"

I have been involved with Rev.Steve Masone in several Eleventh Hour Crusades, God's anointing was evidenced salvation, miracles and deliverance! Over sixty veterans receiving the Holy Ghost and baptized in the Wonderful Name of Jesus Christ in U.S. VA Hospital, Gospel missions, Salvation Army facilities and Jails and some just off the streets. Many vets who suffered from Alcohol, Drugs and Porn addictions were delivered and returned back to their families. As a previous A.C.T.S.Director, (Alcohol, Chemical, Treatment Series)
I can say that Brother Steven Masone's Ministry teaches and preaches a "program" into Revival meetings! Your Church will have revival!
