Pentecost - Receiving of the Holy Spirit

Pentecost Revisited…Prophetic Picture of the Rapture?

On May 6, 2009, in Christian Eschatology, Prophecy, Rapture, by Kingdom Engineer

A year ago I wrote a Bible study entitled “So Simple!” In that study I emphasized how the Lord had shown me that only two of the Jewish Holy Days given to Israel in Leviticus 23 typify the resurrection and rapture of New Testament believers. Those two Jewish Holy Days are “firstfruits” and Pentecost. Proof of this truth is easily available to any reader willing to deal honestly with the Scriptures.

Counting of the Omer (Passover to Pentecost)

On April 13, 2009, in Current Events, Prophecy, Religion, by Kingdom Engineer

Sunday April 12, 2009 was יוֹם הֲנָפַת הָעֹמֶר Yom Hanafat Ha’omer (Day of the Waving of the Sheaf). When the Temple stood this day marked the official commencement of the grain harvest (Dt 16:7) and sheaves of barley were cut and brought to the Temple as a wave-offering (Lev 23:9-14). This day also marks the beginning of the 50-day count to חַג הַשָּׁבֻעוֹת‏ Shavuot (Pentecost; Feast of Weeks). Yom Hanafat Ha’omer is counted as Day 1 and Shavuot as Day 50.
