Another name for Pentecost is the Feast of Weeks. This name stems from how it is to be calculated: seven weeks after the waving of the Omer (Firstfruits sheaf of grain offering). In Deuteronomy, the Israelites are told to "count the seven weeks from the time the sickle is first put to the standing grain" … Continue reading Chasing Pentecost 2018

What Year Is It Really? (Is It 5991?)
The Day and the Hour and the Year? From our studies on Pentecost I am becoming more and more confident that it is the "Day" we are to "high watch" for, although I would never be so brazen as to say a certain day WILL BE "The Day". [See part 1 of my ongoing study … Continue reading What Year Is It Really? (Is It 5991?)
Pentecost Part 15 – The Day the Skies Open
I'm a sola scriptura kind of gal, so I try not to include extrabiblical texts in my studies. I do peek into Jewish expectation at times, as I believe that end times prophecy revolves around Israel and the Hebrew people. Their expectations will play into how they respond to God's call. For that reason, we … Continue reading Pentecost Part 15 – The Day the Skies Open
Pentecost Part 13 – The Resurrection on the Last Day
We have been studying the Last Trump and its possible connection to a future Pentecost. Now we are going to tackle another "Last" - the "Last Day".

Pentecost Part 9 – The Trumpets and the Feasts
We want to examine which trumpet is blown in Zion in Joel 2:1-2. To examine this, first we're going to back up a little bit and discuss another trumpet, and see if we can connect them. There has been a lot of confusion and controversy surrounding three little words - "The Last Trump". ...in a … Continue reading Pentecost Part 9 – The Trumpets and the Feasts
Pentecost Part 8 – Pentecost, Joel 2, and the Coming of the Day of the Lord
In part 7 of our study on Pentecost, we connected Hebrews 12 both to the original Pentecost (Shavuot) and a future rapture followed by a time of wrath on earth, also possibly starting on Pentecost. Let's examine that connection more fully in this post. Thunder, Lightning, Smoke, Fire, and Terror Remember back in part 1 … Continue reading Pentecost Part 8 – Pentecost, Joel 2, and the Coming of the Day of the Lord
