When studying Bible prophecy, there are three keys that will provide a basic structure to help us navigate in understanding the timing of end-time events, which are:
The Seven Feasts of The Lord - God’s Calendar of Events
Israel's Two Exiles
Messiah's Two Comings
The Seven Feasts of The Lord - God’s Calendar of Events
God created time, and within that time gave measurements called appointed times. An appointed time is a predetermined period of time. These appointed times reveal both the big picture timeline as well as the progressive plan of salvation illustrated in each individual Feast. For example: Passover foretold the death, burial and resurrection of the Messiah’s first coming, the Suffering Servant. Pentecost was the betrothal of Israel, foretelling of the betrothal of the born again soul receiving the infilling of the Holy Spirit. And the final Fall Feast Tabernacles, foretells of the great end-time call to global repentance, the Day of Judgment and the Ingathering. The entirety of God’s plan is prescribed, foretold and revealed in the Seven Feasts of the Lord! As the Host of these Feasts, God invites both Jew and Gentile alike to join Him in their fulfillment!
