The numeric connection between the two quakes/tsunamis
of Dec 26, 2004 and March 28, 2005(Printer Friendly without black images)
Signs in the heavens and on earth, though fearful,
must not cloud the realization that God seeks by them to save men,
not to destroy them.The purpose of this study is to show that great earthquakes,
no matter how numerous, are not random, but are on God's calendar.
God is in control!

Hi Dean,is it possible that the time frame from the tsunami 25 DEC 2004 to Earthquake Tidal wave 28 March 2005 being three and a half months there is to come a massive Earthquake and Tsunami end July 2005 being seven months?This came to mind after reading Hebrews 12 and 13, after praying for the welfare of all peoples off Gods creation.Then thinking about the ongoing persecution and killing of Christians in the Indonesian Archipelago that has been going on for some forty years.World leaders embarrassed and silent once more, with no declared belief in God or a willingness to enforce the law of his commandments when they do declare it.Thou shalt not kill.God bless and keep you safe,xxx

My quick reply---
The two tsunamis are connected numerically in several ways, all agreeing. They are following the prophecy pattern of Revelation 12 where the women gives birth to the "man-child" and the child is caught up to heaven and then she goes into the desert 1260 days where she is sustained there just like Israel was sustained 40 years when they left Egypt.
Jesus said:
(Luke 21:9-12) "And when ye (Christ's disciples) shall hear of wars and tumults, be not terrified: for these things must needs come to pass first; but the end is not immediately. Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there shall be great earthquakes, and in divers places famines and pestilences; and there shall be terrors and great signs from heaven. But before all these things, they shall lay their hands on you, and shall persecute you..."
(Luke 21:24-28) "And they (Israel) shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led captive into all the nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled. And there shall be signs in sun and moon and stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, in perplexity for the roaring of the sea and the billows; men fainting for fear, and for expectation of the things which are coming on the world: for the powers of the heavens shall be shaken. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. But when these things begin to come to pass, look up, and lift up your heads; because your redemption draweth nigh."
There are 1260 x 1000 days from the Passover of the exodus (360 calendar) in 1446 BC to the first tsunami. (Both the numbers 1000 and 1260 are found in the book of Revelation.) There are 92 days between the first and second great Indonesian quake (8.7 magnitude, though with only a small tsunami this second time). The question that naturally arises is this, since the first epoch quake was clearly a sign to the world of coming judgments upon this earth, then this second sister-quake 92 days later should likewise be a sign in someway---but how?
Key numeric:
Since there are 92 days from the Passover of the exodus (Nisan/Abib 14---360 calendar) until when Moses ascended back up mount Sinai after the first 40 days of receiving the law (i.e., at the golden-calf episode), this means that from when Moses ascended up the Mount to when the second tsunami occurred is therefore also 1260 x 1000 days---since the two quakes are likewise 92 days apart.
What is the connection between the Passover of the Exodus
and Moses' ascension up Mount Sinai, with the two quakes?Answer: Revelation 12 is the text the binds everything together.
Jesus died on Passover, AD 30---the anniversary of the exodus from Egypt. (Jesus delivers us from slavery to sin and death just as Israel was delivered from natural slavery and death. Jesus (Yeshua) is the ultimate Passover lamb!) Now, the prophecy of Revelation 12 merges the birth and ascension of Jesus into one event---with the death of Christ only inferred. The life of Jesus is leapt over, as it were, and a gap exists from His birth to His death/ascension.
"...and she brought forth a male child, who is about to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, and caught away was her child unto God and His throne..." (Revelation 12:5)
Then, in the next verse, we have "1260 days in the wilderness" patterned after Israel's 40 years in the wilderness after the exodus. (The exodus occurred the morning after Passover, 1446 BC---1446 BC is the date commonly received by modern bible-believing scholars, and the date used throughout our various websites the past 8 years.)
Now it happens that Jesus ascended into heaven "40 days" after his resurrection, and in a similar pattern Moses also ascended 40 days (or 42 depending how you look at it) after his first ascension up the Mount. Thus you have Israel born, so to speak, at the Exodus, and then ascending into heaven in the figure of Moses at mount Sinai---the same pattern as the birth and ascension in Revelation 12. Thus, the birth and ascension of Jesus in Revelation 12 is patterned after Moses.
"...and she brought forth a male child, who is about to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, and caught away was her child unto God and His throne, and the woman did flee to the wilderness, where she hath a place made ready from God, that there they may nourish her--days a thousand, two hundred, sixty." (Revelation 12:5-6)
Hence, the prophecy of Revelation 12 is patterned after Moses, which in turn is a type of Jesus' birth and ascension. (Compare the births of Jesus and Moses with Revelation 12, for example: In each case the devil tries to destroy the newly born child-savior.)
Thus, we have the "birth" (exodus) and "ascension" of Moses patterned after Revelation 12, and we also have the two quakes "1260" x 1000 years later---also patterned after the "1260 days" of Revelation 12. But there is more...
The timing of the quakes, (Christmas and Easter)
It should also be noted that just as the first quake happened on the day after Christmas (the traditional date of Christ's birth), even so the second quake was the day after Easter (the traditional anniversary of Christ's resurrection.) Also, 40 days after the resurrection, Jesus ascended, like Moses, into heaven hidden by a cloud. Again we have the tie-in of the birth ("Christmas") and ascension ("Easter + 40 days") of Jesus as found in the Revelation 12 narrative.
The Revelation 11 pattern is also being used.
Both Revelation 11 and Revelation 12 mention 1260 days (or 3.5 years). However, at the end of the 1260 days the "Two Witnesses" ("Two Lampstands") are slain and 3.5 days later they are risen amid a great earthquake. The 1260 days signifies a 3.5-year period, and agrees with the 3.5 days that they lay dead until their resurrection. ("3.5" is half a seven-year/day period---the number of perfection and completion.) On the 360 calendar such a period can last 1260, or 1290 days with its leap month. This is why we have "1290" in Daniel 12 rather than the expected 1260 as found in Revelation 12. Daniel 12 has simply inserted a leap month---a practice still observed today in the Jewish lunar calendar in Israel.)
Now it happens that there elapsed 1260 days from the fall of the Twin Towers (9/11) until the Iran (Persia) quake, but 1290 + 3.5 days from 9/11 until the Indonesian quake of which we are discussing! (See document on symbolism of Iran earthquake.)
It is not as though we are making all this up now! Several lengthy documents all about the Twin Towers as typical of the Two Witnesses was already put out on the internet shortly after they fell---long before they replaced the two towers with two great lampstands for 33 days, as seen in the picture. The fall of the "Two Towers" (i.e., "the Two Lampstands,") symbolize the fall of Babylon---in antithesis to the Two Witnesses of Revelation 12. Yet, perhaps they are a symbol of hope that the light and gospel witness of America will not forever go out? Let us hope and pray so. For America is falling fast! And light of the gospel is fading within her, and so is her "witness" of truth in the world.
Thus, 1260 days elapsed from the fall of the Twin Towers unto the Persia (Iran) quake, which symbolizes the death of the Two Witnesses (as patterned after the death of Christ and his 3.5-year ministry), but also we have 1290 + 3.5 days to the Indonesian quake that symbolizes His resurrection. (The 1290 simply has the leap month added to it. Note that there was an earthquake at both the death and resurrection of Jesus. He rose "on the 3rd day.") The gap of the 30 + 3.5 days (33 days) between the two earthquakes reminds us of the 30 + 3.5-year ministry of Christ, which in turn remind us of the said gap between the birth and resurrection/ascension of Christ as found in the narrative of Revelation 12.
"...and she brought forth a male child, who is about to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, and caught away was her child unto God and His throne..." (Revelation 12:5)
It should also be pointed out that when the Two Witnesses rise from the dead, they immediately ascend up into heaven in cloud, much like Jesus did! (Note the 1260 x 1000 days, as well, from #6 on the chart. ---I.e., from Ex. 24:15, where 'Moses ascends the mount in a cloud before the eyes of the nation on the 7th day as God commanded him, "come up here,"---this day, unto the Iran quake are also 1260 x 1000 days!)
"...and I will give to My two witnesses, and they shall prophesy days, a thousand, two hundred, sixty, arrayed with sackcloth; these are the two olive trees , and the two lamp-stands that before the God of the earth do stand; (Rev 11:3-4).
"...and they shall behold--they of the peoples, and tribes, and tongues, and nations--their dead bodies three days and a half, and their dead bodies they shall not suffer to be put into tombs, and those dwelling upon the land shall rejoice over them, and shall make merry, and gifts they shall send to one another, because these--the two prophets--did torment those dwelling upon the land.' And after the three days and a half, a spirit of life from God did enter into them, and they stood upon their feet, and great fear fell upon those beholding them, and they heard a great voice out of the heaven saying to them, `Come up hither;' and they went up to the heaven in the cloud, and their enemies beheld them; and in that hour came a great earthquake," (Rev 11:9-13a).
What is most remarkable about all this is that the 1290 + 3.5 days from 9/11 lands this 3.5-days perfectly and squarely within good Friday and Easter---the traditional anniversaries of the death and resurrection of Christ!!! Could you have planned it any better! Think about it! This 3.5 days that symbolizes the death and resurrection of Christ also happens to land on good Friday and Easter---the anniversary of the death and resurrection of Christ! Be it known oh man, God reigns! Fear before Him and bow the knee! For He will rule with a rod of iron!
This same "3.5-days death-and-resurrection" pattern of Easter 'happens' to also coincide with the 3-days of Purim this year---and Purim basically symbolizes the same thing! (I.e., March 24, 2005 was "the fast of Esther," which landed 1290 days after the fall of the Twin Towers. The quake was 3.5 days later!) Purim commemorates when Jews in Persia feasted (i.e., Persia is Iran, where the other quake occurred!) and made merry, and gave gifts to one another, because Haman and their enemies that tormented them were dead! Compare that with Revelation 11:11-12.
"...and those dwelling upon the land shall rejoice over them, and shall make merry, and gifts they shall send to one another, because these--the two prophets--did torment those dwelling upon the land.'
(Moreover, those 3.5 days would have been Passover/Firstfruits this year had not the Jewish leap-month of 2Adar been added within the Jewish calendar this year.)
Purim:
The earthquake also occurred the day after the last day of the Jewish biblical feast of Purim, and thus again carries the Revelation 12 theme, this time of the enemy's frustrated attempt to flood away the " women," after the failed attempt to kill the child-king--- just as in the Esther/Purim story as found in the book of Esther. Queen Esther protested that the attack was against her ("the women"), as well as all her people.
As said, the 'dragon' pours out a 'flood' after the women to destroy her in Revelation 12. Revelation 12 is here stylized after the account of when Pharaoh pursued the nation Israel at the Red Sea when Israel fled Egypt, ( "as soon as the king/ child was born"), but, as said, it also reminds us of the feast of Purim, when Haman sought to destroy all Jews, but God turned things around in both stories. (See the book of Esther.)
Heavenly signs:
This also concurs with the great signs in the heavens half-a-year before the tsunami, wherein two comets appeared in the sky 360 x 4 days after the mene-tekel bible code, which was 40 days before the River-of Judgment picture bible code, and then the Lion-of-Judah picture code. Amazingly, the two picture bible codes are a frozen snapshot of this very sign in the heavens! (I only found out about the comets several months after the images were already on the Internet.) The significance of this is that we have a sign in the sky, as interpreted by the picture bible codes, saying to the effect that the Lion of the tribe of Judah (Jesus Christ) will defeat His enemies and cast the dragon into the river of judgment. (The sign again thus agrees with Revelation 12.)
This heavenly sign occurred half-a-year before the tsunami, which means that there were 1260 x 1000 days from the start of the 10 plagues upon Egypt (which likewise began half-year before the exodus), until this sign in the heavens, and of the river-picture bible code! In other words, the heavenly sign of the comets occurred 1260 x 1000 days from when the plagues on Egypt began, and the on-earth sign of the great tsunami occurred 1260 x 1000 days from when the plagues on Egypt ended! He spoke from heaven and earth, and shook the sea and the dry ground! (Hab.) Thus there has been a series of events this past year happening 1260 x 1000 days from the events of the exodus. (This is being repeated by 1150 x 3 years as well, which we will look at shortly. God always does things with at least two or three witnesses to verify them for us.)
1260 + 1335 years
The day-counts are also exact to the very day in several ways. One, as said, is 1260 x 1000 days, the other is "1260 + 1335 years" from the 350th day that Ezekiel laid on his side to bear the sins of the house of Israel, (with another 40 more for Judah, agreeing with the 40 days from the comets to when the river-of-judgment (balance) bible code came, (Ezek. 4). And it is also, as said, 1260 x 1000 days from the start of the plagues on Egypt. (Note the 1000 years that the dragon is shut up until when it is cast into the river of fire (that is, Eridanus, that is, the lake of fire of Revelation 21). (There is another 40 days after the 390 days as well, but I cannot detail that now. See Revelation 12 for '1335'.)
Ponder the heavenly signs! The heavens proclaim Jesus as Lord! This is not astrology! It is God speaking to man in a language universally known---the constellations! (Recall the magi who saw, "His star" in the east. The names of some of the constellations are also mentioned in three books of the bible. My friend, either God is using pagan notions of the heavenly constellations, or they are distortions of what He Himself originally ordained. Either way, God is speaking---and who are we to argue with Him that He should try to reach a lost pagan world with their own pagan symbols! [If they even are pagan, that is.])
(Printer Friendly, i.e., without black images!)
1150 x 3 years
If that were not enough, we also have yet another entirely different line of figures from the Exodus! We use the 1150 of Daniel 8. (The '2300 evenings and morning' can be viewed as 1150 days, and/or years.) From the exodus in 1446 BC, until this year of 2005 are 1150 x 3 years. Moreover, since there are only 90 days (3 months) difference between 1260 x 1000 (1260,000) days and 1150 x 3 years on the 360 calendar, this means that the 92 days between the two quakes shrink to become as two days. (92 - 90 = 2 days. There happens to be 1260,090 days within 1150 x 3 years using the 360 bible-prophecy calendar.)
This means the following:
Abib/Nisan 14 (Passover, 1446 BC---and anniversary of Christ's death as well) until the Dec. 26, 2004 quake was 1260 x 1000 days, and...
Abib/Nisan 16 (Firstfruits, 1446 BC---and anniversary of Christ's death as well), until the second quake of March 28, 2005 was 1150 x 3 years.
Jesus died on Passover Friday (i.e., traditionally it was Friday), and rose on Firstfruits on Sunday, (now called by the pagan name of 'Easter'). This means that these two days are being highlighted by the quakes---Passover and Firstfruits---in that they are the days Jesus died and rose again. Moreover, there are only two great earthquakes mentioned in the life of Jesus, one at His death on Passover, and the other 3 (inclusive) days later at His resurrection on Firstfruits! The earthquakes on Passover and Firstfruits in AD 30 therefore harmonize with the two great Indonesian earthquakes/tsunamis. (See also Revelation 11.)
Summary
Hence, in one stroke, the two quakes are highlighting the following significant anniversaries---each highly symbolic:
Christmas, Easter, Passover, Firstfruits, Ascension (i.e., Moses up Mount), and Purim.
Thus, the symbolism of each of these epoch anniversaries tie in both numerically and thematically to Revelation 12.
What it all means:
What does all this mean?
The final fulfillment of Revelation 12 is coming soon! God is warning the wicked and encouraging the righteous that His coming is near! Jesus is coming to deliver His people from the bondage of this world, and to show His glory to His brethren the Jew---whom he will show Himself as their faithful Messiah. But the devil, and all His enemies, He will destroy by the river of judgment when He roars like a lion from Zion against them. The time is soon and the message is certain in that He has given every aspect of the sign with at least two or three witnesses to it.
This does not mean that we are now in the 1260-day tribulation period spoken of by the prophets, but that it is coming and that His faithful saints should look up, because their redemption draws near! "Fear before Him all you peoples!"
The below chart was put on Net some years ago at our bible numbers site.
The Passover of Exodus was on day 14 (see full
chart for "#2"), and
Moses up Mount was on day 106 ("#9"), which is 92 days apart, the
same length
as the 92 days between the two powerful Indonesian quakes (tsunamis).
Thus, as said at
the time of the first quake---the Dec. 27, 2004 quake was exactly 1260
x 1000 days
from the Passover of the exodus; hence, this means that 92 days later was
the second
quake (of March 28, 2005), which is therefore similarly 1260 x 1000 days
back to when when Moses
went up Mount Sinai. (#6 can read '65th day' plus the '7 days' as
well.)

Revelation 12
Rev 12:1 And a great sign was seen in the heaven, a woman arrayed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars,
Rev 12:2 and being with child she doth cry out, travailing and pained to bring forth.
Rev 12:3 And there was seen another sign in the heaven, and, lo, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his head seven diadems,
Rev 12:4 and his tail doth draw the third of the stars of the heaven, and he did cast them to the earth; and the dragon did stand before the woman who is about to bring forth, that when she may bring forth, her child he may devour;
Rev 12:5 and she brought forth a male child, who is about to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, and caught away was her child unto God and His throne,
Rev 12:6 and the woman did flee to the wilderness, where she hath a place made ready from God, that there they may nourish her--days a thousand, two hundred, sixty.
Rev 12:7 And there came war in the heaven; Michael and his messengers did war against the dragon, and the dragon did war, and his messengers,
Rev 12:8 and they did not prevail, nor was their place found any more in the heaven;
Rev 12:9 and the great dragon was cast forth--the old serpent, who is called `Devil,' and `the Adversary,' who is leading astray the whole world--he was cast forth to the earth, and his messengers were cast forth with him.
Rev 12:10 And I heard a great voice saying in the heaven, `Now did come the salvation, and the power, and the reign, of our God, and the authority of His Christ, because cast down was the accuser of our brethren, who is accusing them before our God day and night;
Rev 12:11 and they did overcome him because of the blood of the Lamb, and because of the word of their testimony, and they did not love their life--unto death;
Rev 12:12 because of this be glad, ye heavens, and those in them who do tabernacle; woe to those inhabiting the land and the sea, because the Devil did go down unto you, having great wrath, having known that he hath little time.'
Rev 12:13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast forth to the earth, he pursued the woman who did bring forth the male,
Rev 12:14 and there were given to the woman two wings of the great eagle, that she may fly to the wilderness, to her place, where she is nourished a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent;
Rev 12:15 and the serpent did cast forth after the woman, out of his mouth, water as a river, that he may cause her to be carried away by the river,
Rev 12:16 and the land did help the woman, and the land did open its mouth and did swallow up the river, that the dragon did cast forth out of his mouth;
Rev 12:17 and the dragon was angry against the woman, and went away to make war with the rest of her seed, those keeping the commands of God, and having the testimony of Jesus Christ.
