PREFACE
Dear Reader,
But we put the question is: Are the Christian churches preaching the gospel in
an intense way of the Kingdom of God ordained by our Lord Jesus and as a
consequence, preparing the bride for the marriage of the lamb?
The day and hour when Jesus will come back nobody knows, but the Father
But through this work, we intend to show there in the Good Book, abundant
reference as to when this would occur through the mysteries related to the
numbers cited in the Holy Book.
After reading the Holy Bible, something caught my attention. The number of
references that have identical numbers throughout the Holy Book from
Genesis to Revelation is something amazing and wonderful as the revelation
of a mystery after the drafting of the last book (Revelation), all pieces fit
perfectly and smoothly , as can be, by reason of perfection that is our God.
In fact, many numbers in the Bible are cited repeatedly, each possessing a
significance with regard to God's plan. However, three of these numbers will
be addressed in this work, since together reveal the mystery of God from
creation to the end of time, with the return of our Lord Jesus Christ, namely the
6
Numbers in the Bible and the end time
Initially, we will show the number four and its derivatives (the fourth, forty,
four hundred). You are so intense he present in the Old Testament, and reading
the verses in which he appears, translates into something like "hope,"
"Patience", "preparation period".
Subsequently, we also note that the number that appears in the Holy Bible on
numerous occasions, and now much more frequent in the New Testament, is
the three and their derivatives (thirty, three hundred, the third). We also note
that this number has close relationship with the life of our Lord Jesus Christ,
whose completion of their meaning by reading the Bible passages was
"running", "realization," consummation. "
Finally, the last number or perhaps the "first", we know - our God knows - it's
seven, which appears several times in both the Old and New Testaments,
especially in the first (Genesis) and last book (Revelation) representing the
number of perfection, the day God rested from all his work he had done.
We explained further that were brought to this work, some passages revealed
by God to this author when preparing this study, which is why when reading
this book the reader may refer to other passages of the Holy Book were not
here presented.
We hope that reading this book, somehow, not only serve as a tool for
reflection on the current state of our relationship with the Church of Christ, but
also awakens a sense of confirmation that the return of our Lord Jesus Christ
really is very come and that the fruits of these feelings result in effective
participation in the work of our Lord Jesus, to take all the preaching of the
gospel of the kingdom of God.
Maranatha! Jesus comes!

Chapter 1
CREATION
Initially, we note in the first chapter of the Book of Genesis, an important
presence of this number as a divisive factor among the things that our God
created both before and after the fourth day.
By the fourth day, we see that God created the light (day), has separated
between water and water (second day), split between land and seas,
production of green grass, seed, fruit tree (third day), and created the sun,
moon and stars (fourth day).
By the fifth day God created the seas then reptiles, birds and whales, and the
sixth day God made the beasts of the earth, cattle, and every creeping thing
of the earth, and finally created man and woman.
On the seventh day God rested from all his work he had done.
Note that by the fourth day, there was still life on earth, for only the fifth and
sixth day God set aside to create life as described above. Soon, the "four" is
presented here as a preparation for life to come to earth.

THE FLOOD
GEN 7:4 For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain
upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every
living substance that I have made will I destroy from off
the face of the earth.
GEN 7:12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and
forty nights.
GEN 7:17 And the flood was forty days upon the earth;
and the waters increased, and bare up the ark, and it was
lift up above the earth.
GEN 8:6 And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that
Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made:
Isaac waited for forty years, that God would prepare a wife. As the LORD had
respect for Isaac, send him a wife named Rebekah. This, in turn, was barren,
leading Isaac to pray to the Lord for his wife to give her children. The word
tells us that Isaac prayed for twenty years to conceive, Rebekah Esau and
Jacob.
GEN 26:34 And Esau was forty years old when he took to
wife Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and
Bashemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite:
GEN 26:35 Which were a grief of mind unto Isaac and to
Rebekah.
Unlike what happened with Jacob, Esau having the age of forty, took to himself
two wives, and the above verse shows that these wives were for parents of
Esau, a spirit of bitterness, or sadness and grief caused Isaac and Rebekah.
God tells us there is a strict relationship in the following points: the life of
Moses and Jesus Christ, the waiting time, and ultimately, slavery. Consider:
The Jewish people remained slaves for "four hundred and thirty
years to acquire the freedom which was achieved by sending Moses to the
land of Egypt. After liberation from slavery, it was also necessary to wander in
the desert for forty years to reach the promised land. We also saw that this
period of pilgrimage occurred due to the disobedience of Israel.
Now let a relationship with the work of Jesus Christ. Since Adam, it took about
four thousand years (two thousand years from Adam to Abraham and two
thousand years from Abraham to Jesus Christ) that Jesus was sent to earth for
the deliverance of the children of God from the slavery of sin.
Just as it took forty years for the people of Israel entered the Promised Land,
will also be taken four thousand years for the children of God to enter the
kingdom of God, by inheritance, namely, a wait of two thousand years since
the promise made Abraham to Jesus Christ and the remainder over a two
thousand years of Jesus until today.
MOSES
ACTS 7:22 And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the
Egyptians, and was mighty in words and in deeds.
10
Numbers in the Bible and the end time
(ACTS 7:23 And when he was full forty years old, it came
into his heart to visit his brethren the children of Israel.
ACTS 7:24 And seeing one of them suffer wrong, he
defended him, and avenged him that was oppressed, and
smote the Egyptian:
ACTS 7:25 For he supposed his brethren would have
understood how that God by his hand would deliver them:
but they understood not.
ACTS 7:26 And the next day he shewed himself unto them
as they strove, and would have set them at one again,
saying, Sirs, ye are brethren; why do ye wrong one to
another?
ACTS 7:27 But he that did his neighbour wrong thrust him
away, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge over us?
ACTS 7:28 Wilt thou kill me, as thou diddest the Egyptian
yesterday?
ACTS 7:29 Then fled Moses at this saying, and was a
stranger in the land of Madian, where he begat two sons.
ACTS 7:30 And when forty years were expired, there
appeared to him in the wilderness of mount Sina an angel
of the Lord in a flame of fire in a bush.
ACTS 7:35 This Moses whom they refused, saying, Who
made thee a ruler and a judge? the same did God send to
be a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel which
appeared to him in the bush.
ACTS 7:36 He brought them out, after that he had shewed
wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red
sea, and in the wilderness forty years.
Here we have three periods of forty years connected with the life of Moses, all
related to a waiting period.
The first period corresponds to the time spent waiting on that to come into
your heart the desire to visit his brothers, the people of Israel, because God
had a purpose for his servant Moses of the deliverance of his people.
The second period of forty years, corresponds to the time when Moses was
away from his people, until the angel of God appeared in the wilderness of
Mount Sinai.
Finally, the third sentence of forty years, concerns the end of their journey
when Moses receives God's mission to lead his people through the desert,
freeing them from the bondage of Egypt and leading them to the promised
land.
11
Numbers in the Bible and the end time
The land that God promised the people of Israel, was not empty, but it was
inhabited by very strong, so that the promise of the land of Canaan should be
won through struggle and perseverance. Could you turn over the land without
major difficulties, a ready-made land without inhabitants, but the Lord needed
to prove the faith of its people, or if she was up for any challenge that was
greater.
With the exception of Joshua and Caleb, all others who searched the land, they
returned all discouraged, behold, the conquest would be impossible, because
of people who lived there. But Joshua and Caleb believed in the promise of the
Lord.
Here, we emphasize again three verses inserted in the text above, which then
repeat:
Thus, we see that the Lord God according to his purpose, made for each day
that the earth was glance, to be represented by one year for the pilgrimage in
the desert. In this passage, God reveals in his work, a prophetic list of day and
year. Already, in another passage the Lord presents a relationship between a
day and a millennium, namely:
Thus, we have two waiting periods that were related to the promised land. The
first sentence (forty days) was the time that the people of Israel waited for the
earth was peek. Already, the second period (forty years) was needed so that
people could then enter on that land. In both, the meaning is the same, ie one
expects to fulfill God's purpose.
Already in its second letter of Peter, chapter 3, verse 8, the relationship is
between a day and a millennium, that is, what God has appointed for the
seventh day, so too will come to the seventh millennium, and what was
determined to the fourth day, also to be the fourth millennium, and finally,
which has designated the third day will be consummated in the third
millennium, as will be discussed in subsequent chapters of this work.
After the liberation of Israel from Egypt, it was necessary to "wait" a period of
forty years of wandering in the wilderness, so that people could reach the land
of Canaan.
Through the following verse (8:2 DT), we have the Lord God, determined the
period of forty years in order to humiliate, to taste, to know what was in the
heart of the Jewish people to obey the Lord or not.
DEUT 2:7 For the LORD thy God hath blessed thee in all
the works of thy hand: he knoweth thy walking through
this great wilderness: these forty years the LORD thy God
hath been with thee; thou hast lacked nothing.
DEUT 8:2 And thou shalt remember all the way which the
LORD thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness,
to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in
thine heart, whether thou wouldest keep his
commandments, or no.
14
Numbers in the Bible and the end time
DEUT 8:4 Thy raiment waxed not old upon thee, neither
did thy foot swell, these forty years.
As we said earlier, since the promise made to Abraham, it's been four
thousand years (two thousand years before Jesus and two thousand years
until today), and all we saw was that God's purpose was the same as had
with the people of Israel in the wilderness. In these four thousand years,
sought to prove God and humiliate its people, to know what was in his heart,
keep the commandments or not. And what we discover? A people that after
entering the promised land remained disobedient, not respecting God's
commandments. When Jesus Christ was sent to consummation of the work,
the people did not receive it, surrendered before the death.
As it was with Joshua and Caleb, will also be with us. Even before large
trials, even when Satan wants to show us the defeat, if we believe firmly in
God's word, nailing it in our hearts, and we will receive the promise with Jesus
Christ in the kingdom prepared for the children of God.
God has shown the promised land for Joshua and Caleb, but it was still
necessary to conquer it. And this achievement was possible only with the
help of God, who would guide them in everything.
Likewise, the Kingdom of God we were shown through Jesus Christ, only here
the conquest of this kingdom will by faith that he is the Christ, Savior of our
souls.
1JN 5:1 Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God:
and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten
of him.
1JN 5:2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God,
and keep his commandments.
1JN 5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his
commandments are not grievous.
1JN 5:4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the
victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
1JN 5:5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus
is the Son of God?

Numbers in the Bible and the end time
When Moses went up the mountain, had to "wait" for forty days and forty
nights to write the Ten Commandments.
EX 34:28 And he was there with the LORD forty days and
forty nights; he did neither eat bread, nor drink water. And
he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the
ten commandments.
DEUT 9:9 When I was gone up into the mount to
receive the tables of stone, even the tables of the
covenant which the LORD made with you, then I abode in

bread nor drink water:
DEUT 9:11 And it came to pass at the end of forty
days and forty nights, that the LORD gave me the two
tables of stone, even the tables of the covenant.
EX 25:12 And thou shalt cast four rings of gold for it, and
put them in the four corners thereof; and two rings shall
be in the one side of it, and two rings in the other side of
it.

corners thereof: his horns shall be of the same: and thou
shalt overlay it with brass.

PROPHECY OF JESUS
In the following parable, Jesus makes reference to the period of four months,
so prophetic, as well as in the period since the harvest has come, from
Abraham to the present day, comprises a period of approximately four
thousand years, which is also already reached the Kingdom of God.
JN 4:35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then
cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes,
and look on the fields; for they are white already to
harvest.
REV 14:14 And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and
upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having
on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.
REV 14:15 And another angel came out of the temple,
crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud,
Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee
to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe.
REV 14:16 And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle
on the earth; and the earth was reaped.
RESURRECTION OF LAZARUS
When Jesus was told of the sickness of Lazarus, he knew that Lazarus would
suffer and rise again after four days. Again the four appears in the Bible to
show that this period corresponds to a waiting time until the Lord Jesus, to
resurrect the glory of God, the Son of God might be glorified thereby.

Adam-Abraham-Jesus
For the period from Adam to Abraham, it took up about two
thousand years. Likewise, from Abraham to Jesus, it was another two thousand
years. Finally, from Jesus until today, also traveled to two thousand years.
So our story is divided by God through these three men.
The first, that God used to start your project. The second was when God
revealed his promise, he had prepared for her children, a land to be handed to
those who believe through faith.

In the Holy Book, three men were raised by God in the Old
Testament period, which was written for a story so much promise (made by
our God) but also of faith demonstrated by these three men, whose design
was later consummated with the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Just as our Lord Jesus prayed for "three" times before being delivered to the
prophet Daniel also prayed for three times the Lord God.
DAN 6:10 Now when Daniel knew that the writing was

open in his chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled upon
his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks
before his God, as he did aforetime.

EX 19:12 And thou shalt set bounds unto the people round
about, saying, Take heed to yourselves, that ye go not up
into the mount, or touch the border of it: whosoever
toucheth the mount shall be surely put to death:
EX 19:13 There shall not an hand touch it, but he shall
surely be stoned, or shot through; whether it be beast or
man, it shall not live: when the trumpet soundeth long,
they shall come up to the mount.
EX 19:14 And Moses went down from the mount unto the
people, and sanctified the people; and they washed their
clothes.
EX 19:15 And he said unto the people, Be ready against
the third day: come not at your wives.
EX 19:16 And it came to pass on the third day in the
morning, that there were thunders and lightnings, and a
thick cloud upon the mount, and the voice of the trumpet
exceeding loud; so that all the people that was in the
camp trembled.
EX 19:17 And Moses brought forth the people out of the
camp to meet with God; and they stood at the nether part
of the mount.
EX 19:18 And mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke,
because the LORD descended upon it in fire: and the
smoke thereof ascended as the smoke of a furnace, and
the whole mount quaked greatly.
EX 19:19 And when the voice of the trumpet sounded
long, and waxed louder and louder, Moses spake, and God
answered him by a voice.
EX 19:20 And the LORD came down upon mount Sinai, on
the top of the mount: and the LORD called Moses up to the
top of the mount; and Moses went up.
EX 19:21 And the LORD said unto Moses, Go down, charge
the people, lest they break through unto the LORD to
gaze, and many of them perish.
EX 19:22 And let the priests also, which come near to the
LORD, sanctify themselves, lest the LORD break forth upon
them.
EX 19:23 And Moses said unto the LORD, The people
cannot come up to mount Sinai: for thou chargedst us,
saying, Set bounds about the mount, and sanctify it.
EX 19:24 And the LORD said unto him, Away, get thee
down, and thou shalt come up, thou, and Aaron with thee:
but let not the priests and the people break through to
come up unto the LORD, lest he break forth upon them.
EX 19:25 So Moses went down unto the people, and spake
unto them.

for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to

saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down,
and worshipped him: and when they had opened their
treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and
frankincense and myrrh.
BAPTISM OF JESUS
AGE OF JESUS
Luke, Chapter 3, says that when Jesus began his ministry, was
about 30 years. Since the book of John describes three until Easter in which
Jesus goes to Jerusalem.
Therefore, Jesus having about thirty years old when his
baptism, added three more years of Passover, when Jesus went to Jerusalem,
totaling 33 years until his death and resurrection.
The number three appears at the moment so intense, that
note was baptized at thirty years old, and was resurrected with thirty-three
years.
The most fascinating and revealing, is the number we get
when we subtract the number of his death with his baptism (33-30), which will
result in number three.
So we have to Jesus from his baptism until his death and
resurrection, by will and purpose of God, preached the gospel of the kingdom
of God, for a period of three years.
Although the Lord Jesus came to preach the gospel of the Kingdom of God,
only about four thousand years after Adam's creation, said United was already

Numbers in the Bible and the end time
(JN 2:1 And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of
Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there:
JN 2:2 And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the
marriage.
JN 2:3 And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus
saith unto him, They have no wine.
JN 2:4 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with
thee? mine hour is not yet come.
JN 2:5 His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he
saith unto you, do it.
JN 2:6 And there were set there six waterpots of stone,
after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing
two or three firkins apiece.
JN 2:7 Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water.
And they filled them up to the brim.
JN 2:8 And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear
unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it.
JN 2:9 When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water
that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the
servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the
feast called the bridegroom,
JN 2:10 And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning
doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk,
then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine
until now.
JN 2:11 This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of
Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples
believed on him.
ceremonies. Then, with the master of ceremonies tasted the wine, he directed
his speech to the groom's party, saying that wine was better than that served at
the beginning of the party. For the master of ceremonies, who offered the wine
was the groom's party and not Jesus Christ.
Our Lord Jesus came to earth to do exactly as the Father had appointed him,
or he had to accomplish all the works that received the mission of the Father,
hence the reason of the prophetic words spoken to his mother in Chapter 2,
verse 4 when he said: "Woman, what have I to do with you?", ie he wanted to
say that only serve wine at the time that the Father had ordered that this be
done.
* Day Three: As the Lord Jesus himself said, yet it was time
to serve him wine, symbolizing his blood. This passage occurs just when Jesus
begins his ministry, as the word says that from there, Jesus has begun its
miracles.
We also know that Jesus promoted its mission by preaching the gospel of
God's Kingdom for a period of three years. Thus, we conclude that it would be
necessary to spend a further three years that Jesus came to serve the wine at
the Last Supper. That is why the expression third day at the beginning of
Chapter 2 of John's gospel, that is, there is a prophetic sense in which the third
day was the wedding at Cana in Galilee, would be the third year thereafter, so
that wine was offered by him in the holy supper.
Finally, the third day of the quoted verse also represents
another prophetic revelation, because after his resurrection, we are currently in
the third millennium in which Jesus will return to sit with him and partake of a
new supper when he prophesied of the latter.
MT 26:27 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave
it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it;

you in my Father's kingdom.

The crowd followed when Jesus was not concerned with what he had to eat or
drink, for the word that Jesus said was serving as food for people.

The first issue we studied was four, because we demonstrated how the Holy
Book lists this number as a waiting period of preparation, trial. For the very
reason for being, their presence proved so intense in the Old Testament.
Then we made an approach through the number three as this number has
followed throughout the course of our Lord Jesus Christ. Exceeding the period
of waiting, preparation, then comes a period of consummation, completion of a
work, when it presents itself to the three, plus the four, is achieved perfection
of God's work, which is seven.

GEN 12:4 So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken

GEN 12:5 And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his
brother's son, and all their substance that they had

Unto thy seed will I give this land: and there builded he an

give it, and to thy seed for ever.

By the excerpts presented above, we note that through Abraham God made
the promise that this was achieved by faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. Thus, the
promise until the return of our Lord Jesus, God established a waiting period of
approximately four thousand years.
THIRD DAY
MT 20:17 And Jesus going up to Jerusalem took the twelve
disciples apart in the way, and said unto them,
MT 20:18 Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of
man shall be betrayed unto the chief priests and unto the
scribes, and they shall condemn him to death,
MT 20:19 And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock,
and to scourge, and to crucify him: and the third day he
shall rise again.

The Book of John describes three Passovers in which Jesus goes to Jerusalem,
when it is his death and resurrection.
Just as we said earlier, that Jesus Christ rose again the
third day, again after the completion of His baptism in the third year of his
ministry, his death and resurrection occurs.

Numbers in the Bible and the end time
These two passages also reveal the return of our Lord Jesus
Christ in the third millennium since his resurrection, as we demonstrate below.
However, before looking at these passages, let us recall a
few other texts also taken from the Holy Book, used by Christians to justify the
soon coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
GOSPEL OF MATTHEW
MT 24:23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is
Christ, or there; believe it not.
MT 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false
prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders;
insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the
very elect.
MT 24:25 Behold, I have told you before.
MT 24:26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he
is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret
chambers; believe it not.
MT 24:27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and
shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the
Son of man be.
MT 24:28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the
eagles be gathered together.
MT 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days
shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her
light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers
of the heavens shall be shaken:
MT 24:30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man
in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn,
and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of
heaven with power and great glory.
MT 24:31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound
of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from
the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
MT 24:32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his
branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know
that summer is nigh:
MT 24:33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these
things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
MT 24:34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not
pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
MT 24:35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words
shall not pass away.
MT 24:36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no,
not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
MT 24:37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the
coming of the Son of man be.
MT 24:38 For as in the days that were before the flood
they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in
marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
MT 24:39 And knew not until the flood came, and took
them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man
be.
MT 24:40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be
taken, and the other left.

GOSPEL OF MARK
GOSPEL OF LUKE
Now, by reading these excerpts from the three gospels above, is that the
Christian church in its various denominations, hoping for the return soon of our
Lord Jesus Christ.
2PET 3:3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the
last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
2PET 3:7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now,
by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire
against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly
men.
2PET 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing,
that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a
thousand years as one day.
2PET 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as
some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-
ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should
come to repentance.
2PET 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in
the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a
great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat,
the earth also and the works that are therein shall be
burned up
2PET 3:12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the
day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be
dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?

Numbers in the Bible and the end time
Here, when Peter says that a thousand years to God is like a day and one day
as a thousand years, is a prophetic phrase that combined not only with the rest
of this chapter as well as with the rest of the Holy Book tells us that the
seventh millennium is the millennium, or "DIA" the return of our Lord Jesus
Christ. When Peter uses the phrase "... in recent days is ...", as we read in the
last millennia.
Note that Chapter 3 of the Second Letter of Peter is
exactly the coming of the Lord Jesus and its significance.
In these passages, the word day comes bundled with the word time, ie, here it
is not the "Lord's Day" as being the prophetic sense of the seventh millennium
since the creation of the world and the third millennium of the death and
resurrection of Jesus Christ but we must apply a narrow definition, ie, as being
really the time when Jesus will come, which we do not know but the Father
We understand that the word of God is true, just and true.
Nobody knows the day and hour of Jesus' coming, this is a mystery that
belongs to the Father Like our Lord Jesus prophesied signs that would precede
his return, without specifying the date and time, this paper aims to
demonstrate that our Holy Book has total harmony in all his writings, when
directed to do a reading numbers and try to understand them on their purpose
in the Holy Bible.
Why we still do not know what day and time?
It is impossible to make a chronological analysis of the Holy
Bible in an accurate, since the creation of the world. Differ several previous
studies, whether in religious or even in science. Yes we have some elements
that are peaceful, that is, the creation of the world to Abraham, it took up
about two thousand years. From Abraham to Jesus Christ, also something close
to two thousand years. Finally, yes, of Jesus Christ to our present day, it's been
two thousand and ten years.
Even in the latter period, there is correction to be made
about the exact time of birth of our Lord Jesus Christ and the beginning of the
calendar, something that varies around 4-5 years behind the calendar.
Thus, we know it's been about four thousand years during
91
Numbers in the Bible and the end time
the Old Testament and about two thousand and 10 years of Jesus until today,
that is, a period already finished six thousand years or so.
Thus, by which we present in this work, we believe that the
seventh millennium will be those in which they will consummate the work of
God according to His purpose, without, however, know exactly when this will
happen, ie, days and hours exactly. Apparently, we are already experiencing
the beginning of the seventh millennium, with Jesus at the door to return once
the signs confirmed that he actually predicted this present moment as his
back.
SEVENTH DAY
“GEN 2:3 And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified
it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which
God created and made.”
SEVENTH YEAR
LEV 25:3 Six years thou shalt sow thy field, and six years
thou shalt prune thy vineyard, and gather in the fruit
thereof;
LEV 25:4 But in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of
rest unto the land, a sabbath for the LORD: thou shalt
neither sow thy field, nor prune thy vineyard.
LEV 25:5 That which groweth of its own accord of thy
harvest thou shalt not reap, neither gather the grapes of
thy vine undressed: for it is a year of rest unto the
land.

REV 20:2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent,

the nations no more, till the thousand years should be
fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.
REV 20:6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first

Numbers in the Bible and the end time
The Gospel of Mark is the only one to deal with the crucifixion of Jesus, which
explains the time that Jesus Christ was crucified. As verse 25 above, the
crucifixion occurred at the third hour. Still, according to verses 34 and 37
above, when the sixth hour there was darkness over all the earth until the
ninth hour, and also in this ninth hour, Jesus cried out saying, "God, my God,
why hast thou forsaken me?" And, finally, then says the word he expired.
Until the last hours of her life here on Earth, the number three followed the
Lord Jesus, several times during his crucifixion.
First, early on, his crucifixion occurs in the third hour. Then, after an interval of
three hours, or the sixth hour, says the word that there was darkness over all
the earth until the ninth hour. Finally, went over an interval of three hours,
during which there was darkness over all the earth.
A revelation that God gives us in this end time is related to the period in which
Jesus was crucified. Say the word that He was crucified at the time expired on
the third and ninth hour, or operated a six-hour period during his crucifixion.
Well. We ask: What is about these six hours of the
crucifixion of Jesus Christ for the purpose of God with His plan for us?
Now we have said numerous times in this work since the creation of the world
until today, it's been about six thousand years. We also said that just as God
created all things in six days and rested on the seventh, also on the seventh
millennium will be the return of Jesus to reign a thousand years, representing
the time out of the earth.
Now, do you read the following verses:
95
Numbers in the Bible and the end time
We have already considered this biblical pass early this study, when the
pilgrimage of the Israelites in the desert. These verses were brought here to
demonstrate that when the disobedience of his people, for each day that the
earth was peek, God ordered a year's pilgrimage, so that for the forty days it
took forty years of wandering in the wilderness, until could enter the promised
land.
Chapter 5
96
Numbers in the Bible and the end time
Adam's creation, which reflects the biblical period, with small variations of
dates in relation to other chronological tables.
Birth of Jesus - +- 5 AC
Conversion of Paul - 35 AD
97
Numbers in the Bible and the end time
As the table shows, we have a period of approximately 4000 years before the
birth of Jesus Christ, divided into two periods of about 2000 each. The first
period runs from Adam to Abraham, and the second period goes from
Abraham to the birth of Jesus Christ. Thus, even Jesus Christ are in addition to
approximately 4000 years. Again the four appears in history as a waiting
period, ie, humans have waited four thousand years for light to come into the
world.
Since the birth of Jesus Christ, it took a little over 2000
years, which added to 4000 years before their birth, resulting in a total period
of 6,000 years.
We are currently in the early seventh millennium since the
creation of the world. As we said in this work, the number seven for God,
represents a period of rest, contemplation. In creation, God rested on the
seventh day. For the people of Israel, God also established a year of rest unto
the land. We believe that for the seventh millennium will also rest for the land.
And this will occur precisely with the return of Jesus Christ
and his reign a thousand years to complete so the seven thousand years of
God's purpose. When the apocalypse 20, says that the Devil and Satan will be
bound a thousand years, and cast into the abyss, that no longer deceive the
nations until the thousand years were finished, I mean that in these one
thousand years on earth have a rest.
However, even with this revelation confirms the prophecy
of Jesus Christ, because nobody knows the day nor the hour in which he will
return, just because it is God's purpose.
The chronology of the Bible does not allow us to specify
your dates, whose mystery only belongs to the Father, just as we can also
calculate the number of grains of sand of the sea or the number of stars in the
sky. We must understand that certain things, only the Father knows and not
revealed to us know.
Early in my Christian walk, where he performed the reading of the Holy Bible,
especially the Book of Genesis, I was impressed with the age that was
assigned by God to the people who lived then.

Chapter 6
DIVINE NUMBER
INTRODUCTION
"For a whole divided into two unequal parts look nice from the standpoint of
form, should present the lowest and highest part of the same relationship
between this and the whole."
IN NATURE
The mystery and charm that is associated with this number exceeds the
limited horizon of all that is human! In nature in many situations we can
observe the presence of this number. Here are some examples that leave us
perplexed and amazed:
One area that was Leonardo da Vinci studied the proportions of the human
body and here again we have reason to Gold:
101
Numbers in the Bible and the end time
Yet not long ago a guy went to the Society of Fibonacci with
a curious request: He asked the couples to participate in an experiment. For
that asked husbands to them to measure the height of the woman's navel and
divide by its height. The individual states that all couples in the ratio was
about 0.618.
We know that for the ancient Greeks, a person would be
considered beautiful if it possessed a pattern related to the number 1,618.
Thus, we consider 1.83 m as the standard measure.
IN PLANTS

103
Numbers in the Bible and the end time
Jasmine:
We can perceive the presence of the golden number through the jasmine
flower, is given below. It is represented the pentagram, symbol of the
Pythagorean school. By the theorem of mean and extreme ratio of segments,
the number will reach 1,618.
Other flowers also have a structure similar, like lilies and petunias, among
others. Other beings also have this characteristic. The star-fish, aquatic
animal, is a classic example.
BEEHIVE:
Beehive is the name given to a colony of bees or the shelter built for or by
bees.
Hive bees use to shelter their offspring, creating them and store honey.
Domesticated bees have built their hives in apiaries. A hive usually has 80
thousand bees, most of whom are females (workers). The number of females
and males is given by the number of gold (divine proportion).
FINAL
Reported in this study, a brief summary of the number of gold, to show his
constant presence not only in nature but also in other fields such as
architecture, music, geometry, etc.. We highlight some examples where the
number gold presents itself in our day to day, to clarify their relevance in our
world.
But might ask yourself: What is the relationship of this work that addresses the
biblical numbers to the study of the number of gold?
104
Numbers in the Bible and the end time
It is found that the seginte: Just as God is used in the Sacred Book of the
numbers to determine their purpose, since the creation of the world until the
installation of His Kingdom, so too does the order to be used in their creative
works.
When God created things in heaven and on earth, is how we imagined at the
time of creation, He also determined that such works were subject to given
constraints, ie: it creates human beings, plants, animals, etc.., and after your
voice command, everything is subject according to what He has appointed.
The number of gold is one such control, ie to make everything according to
your desire, the growth of man, plants, animals, must occur according to a
divine proportion (golden number).
As we said earlier, this divine proportion translates to a harmonious working of
our senses. In summary, the work of God.
We must realize that the discoveries made by man, are nothing more than a
revelation given by God at some designated time according to your purpose.
It's like refletíssemos: Children during their growth, they find things they wish
or things are revealed to them as the moment that they are prepared to
understand them?
