Summary: The solar system alignment and economy support an apocalypse when "rich men weep and howllast days." When God got ready to liberate Israel from Egypt, He attacked the gods of Egypt-the Nile, cattle and frogs. Money is our god--it has to go, and it's going! But first we should anticipate the earthquake of Revelation 8:5. It precedes economic collapse represented by "all green grass was burnt up" in Revelation 8:7. The grass represents money because, "as the flower of the grass, so also shall the rich man fade," James 1:9-11, seen best in KJV. "Be not ignorantone day is with the Lord as 1000 yearsthe day of the Lord will come," 2 Pet 3:8-10. God gave us six days to do all our work, Exodus 20: 9. This suggests that after 6000 years, our time is up, but "be not ignorant"? How would we know unless God gives a sign? May 5, 2000: the date that Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn will line up with the sun and moon-the first time in 6000 years." TIME Magazine, 1-17-2000, European Edition. Planets and sun lined up 6,000 years ago according to science, but the Bible gives meaning to the event. The 4th Commandment says, "Six days shall you labor and do all your work." Exodus 20:9. Six days and 1,000 years as a day means we have 6,000 years. Time's up! You may be wondering why that alignment in 2000 is relevant now. The sun, moon and stars made obeisance to Joseph, (Genesis 37:9), but it made no sense until after seven years of plenty when his brothers bowed to him in a time of famine. Our alignment seemed of little importance until, after 7 years, the housing woes began in 2007, followed by the subprime crisis in 2008. We are getting into a deeper crisis. Krisis is the Greek word for judgment in Revelation. 2009? God asked Ezekiel to lie on his side for 390 days--a day for each year that Israel disobeyed, Ezekiel 4:5,6. But God also said, If you don't learn your lesson, I will punish you seven times over, Lev 6:18,21,24 7 x 390 years = 2730 years. Israel's captivity began in 722 BC. It is expected to end this year, 2009 because there was no year "0." (Google Assyrian Captivity of Israel, Wikipedia). Momentous things may be in store. "Of the times and seasons, brethren, you have no need that I write, for you know perfectly, the day of the Lord comes as a thief in the night, when they shall say 'Peace and safety,' sudden destruction comes...but you are all children of the light [and "know perfectly the times and seasons"]. 1Thess 5:1-6. In a previous article we saw clues to "know perfectly" pointing to 2nd Passover, but that could be any year. This information brings expectancy. May God bless your study until then. We should be like the Bereans who "received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the Scriptures daily whether those things were so." Acts 17:11
