The Bible Calendar is crucial for today's Christianity,
but how do we present such extensive material?
Piece of advice: Do not start with the return of Christ!
Contrary to Tim, I have set creation to 0 AM:
Easier to grasp with a Westerner's mind
Permitted as long as one is consistent
Millennium starts at 6000 AM, not 6001 AM
(6000 years until Millennium and
not
to the return)
Jubilees are years ending with 49 and 99 (Fifti
eth
year)
Slide3Why is it important?
The reliability of the BiblePreparation for the return of Christ:Window of opportunity for witnessingPerseverance
But the earth cannot be
that
young?
Slide4A reliable chronology?
Many have failed when trying to anchor in:
secular history
astronomical events
personal experiences and "revelations".
This chronology is based
only in
the Bible
Chiliasm
- 6000 years plus a Millennium
Self-adaptive
Two
calendars give both 6000 years
A summation of times gives the same 6000 years
Many important event on Jubilee years
Symmetries in the times
Slide5First: Millennium Calendar
The Creation week is both historical and prophetic
Do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. (2 Pet 3:8)Of the tree of the knowledge… you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die. (Gen 2:17)Kingdom of God: There remains therefore a [Sabbath-]rest for the people of God. (Heb 4:9)Many things happen on "the third day":The wedding in CanaThe woman at Sychar's wellThe good SamaritanThe temple was to be raised up in three days (& the resurrection)
Slide6Second: Jubilee Year Calendar
Six years
you shall sow your field…but in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of solemn rest for the land.You shall count seven sabbaths of years… seven times seven years; and the time of the seven sabbaths of years shall be to you forty-nine years…And you shall consecrate the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land… It shall be a Jubilee for you.
Lev 25:3-11
Slide7The Calendars merged
My Spirit shall not
strive with man forever, for he is indeed flesh; yet his days shall be 120 years. (Gen 6:3)120 Jubilee periods x 50 years = 6000 yearsProbably counted from the Fall!

Slide10Patriarchs & the First Temple
Abraham was 100 years old when his son Isaac was born to him. (Gen 21:5)[Abraham's] descendants [i.e. from Isaac] would dwell in a foreign land… They would… oppress them 400 years. (Act 7:6)In the 480:th year after the children of Israel had come out of the land of Egypt… [Salomon] began to build the house of the Lord. (1 Ki 6:1)Now it happened at the end of 20 years, when Solomon had built the two houses, the house of the Lord and the king's house… (1 Ki 9:10)
Vital events on Jubilee years!
The Exodus
50:th Jubilee!
Slide11Parallel evidence
God's warning at the (1:st) Temple's inauguration
If you and your sons at all turn from following Me… this house which I have consecrated for My name I will cast out of My sight. (1 Ki 9:4-7)
Ezekiel should lie 390 days on his left side for the iniquity of Israel and 40 days on his right side for the iniquity of Juda, a day for each year… And you shall prophesy against [Jerusalem]. (Ez 4:4-7)Babylonian captivity: I, Daniel, understood from the Scriptures…that the desolation of Jerusalem would last 70 years. (Dan 9:2)The total of 500 years is confirmed:The land enjoyed its sabbath rests; all the time of its desolation it rested, until the 70 years were completed. (2 Krön 36:21)
Return
70:th Jubilee!
Slide12Daniel's 70-weeks Prophecy
Daniel prays in the Babylonian royal courtWhile I was still speaking in prayer, then the man Gabriel… came to me: … At the beginning of your supplications the command was issued… i.e. Cyrus' decree.The length of the periodSeventy weeks have been decreed for your people and your holy city…70 weeks x 7 years = 490 years plus 10 intercalated Jubilee years.A total of 500 years.The content of the period… to finish the transgression, to make an end of sin, to make atonement for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the most holy place.Covers both advents of Jesus => There must be a gap in the period.
From Dan 9:21-24
Slide13The timing of the weeks
The start of the periodFrom the issuing of a decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem...Cyrus's decree, and then the period starts the year after when sacrifices are resumed.Jesus comes during the 69:th week … until Messiah the Prince there will be 7 weeks and 62 weeks.Jerusalem is rebuilt after 7 weeks[Jerusalem] will be built again, with plaza and moat, even in times of distress.The crucifixion is after 69 weeksThen after the 62 weeks [+ thefirst 7] the Messiah will be cut off.Later, Jerusalem is ruinedThe people [Romans] of the prince [Titus] who is to come will destroy the city and the sanctuary.Last week = TribulationEven to the end there will be war; desolations are determined.
From Dan 9:25-26
Slide14Time-gap in Daniel's weeks
The times of the GentilesThe prophetic clock stands still for Israel.The fulfillment of the end-time prophecies cannot start until Israel is reassembled.The gap is 2000 years and starts the year of the crucifixionHe will revive us after two days; He will raise us up on the third day. (Hos 5:15-6:2)Parallel evidence40 years: Yet forty days and Nineveh will be overthrown. (Jon 3:4)1960 years: During the 2:ndexile God punishes seven times more, repeated 4 times. (Lev 26)
Slide15Last Week = Tribulation
The Jews will repent through the sacrificial systemHe will make a firm covenant with the many for one week…Antichrist will be revealed after a while… but in the middle of the week he will put a stop to sacrifice and grain offering; and on the wing of abominations will come one who makes desolate. (Dan 9:27)Jesus' return and the resurrectionThe trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. (1 Cor 15:52)The Year of RecompenseFor the LORD has a day of vengeance,A year of recompense for the cause of Zion. (Isa 34:8)
(Dan 9:27)
Slide16And then?
Kingdom of God = MillenniumThey lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. (Rev 20:4-5)Great White Throne JudgementThe dead were judged… And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.(Rev 20:12-14)EternityThey shall reign for ever and ever.(Rev 22:5)

Slide19Time of the return-God's best kept secret?
Previously, no calculation has been based solely on the Bible.
But of that day and hour no one knows, not even… the Son.
(Matt 24:36)
Yes,
when
Jesus said it.
Knowledge will increase with time.
Daniel, conceal these words and seal up the book until the end of time… and knowledge will increase… none of the wicked will understand, but those who have insight will understand.
(Dan 12:4+10)
We are encouraged to find out, and then it will be no surprise.
If the master of the house had known
what hour
the thief would come, he would have watched… you also
be ready
.
(Matt 24:43‑44)
If
you do not wake up,
I will come like a thief
, and you will not know at what hour I will come to you.
(Rev 3:3)
To be prepared is not based on being scared of Jesus' unexpected arrival, but
exactly
the opposite.
Slide20Summary
The reliability of the calendar is based on:
Only
biblical data
Two independent calendars give both 6000 years
A summation of times gives the same 6000 years
No gaps => God does not want us to guess
Many overlapping evidences
Many important events occur on Jubilee years
Some unique events occur on unique Jubilee years
Symmetries in the times
It is like a puzzle, where one has to do it right all the time for the last piece to fit.
It's a "LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT"-teaching!
