7 year tribulation may begin Sept. 26, (this month!)
Rapture this month? (Sept. 26th) Feast of Trumpets-- believed for years to be the 'Rapture feast'
Feast of trumpets(9-26-14) to Day of Atonement(9-16-21) = exactly 2,550 days or (7 years).
Also would usher in the 7 year biblical tribulation

7 year tribulation may also begin March 18th (not this month!)
I usually count one year from the same date one year to the same date next year. Not the 26th one year to the 16 next year.
What's so exact about 2550? 2345 or 7732 are also exact numbers.
I hope (and have faith) that the Rapture doesn't happen on the 26th. Hubby and me celebrate exactly 17 years since our wedding on the 27th.
Yep, it's generally exactly a year from one set of High Holy Days to the next(Feast of Trumpets = Rosh Hashanah/Day of Atonement = Yom Kippur). But these are Jewish holidays, so why would they be of importance to the rapturing of evangelical Christians? And shouldn't the difference be between Tishrei 1, 5775 and Tishrei 10, 5782? So I wish every Jew at FSTDT l'shanah tovah and well over the fast. To you, I wish you well over your millennial obsessions.
9/26/14 to 9/16/21 is actually 2,547 days, or 6 years, 11 months, 21 days.
If your math is off, is it possible your predictions are off too?
exactly 2,550 days or (7 years).
Using a calculator, and this is something your PC will have on it as part of windows so you can't claim you don't have one, we find that 7 years equals 2,555 days... except your period includes 2 leap years, so it's 2,557 days = 7 years.
Your numbers are a little off somewhere...
Oh, and Numerology is a Sin, according to the Bible.
Seven years is 2,557 days, not 2,550; 9/26/14 to 9/16/2021 is 2,547 days, not "exactly 2,550"; the Feast of Trumpets (Rosh Hashanah to the rest of us) begins at sunset on 9/24/2014, not 9/26; the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) begins at sunset on 9/15/21, not 9/16; and sunset 9/24/2014 to sunset 9/15/2021 is 2,548 days - so you're 0 for five.
Other bits of dumb you used in your calculations: the average year is 365.25 days, not 364.25; and the average Jewish month is 29.5 days (alternate 29 and 30 day months), not 30; plus there are two leap years years when a 13th 30-day month is added.
365*7=2555, not 2550. I knew that couldn't be right, because 2550 is even, and neither 365 nor 7 are.
Edit: I should've read the other comments before posting.
Still, see ya on the 27th!
Oh look, another attempt at predicting the rapture. I wonder if J_Common realizes that the Book of Revelation was almost cut from the Christian canon. It was viewed as metaphorical. And why does Yom Kippur even matter?
I really should stop trying to find reason in fundamentalists' writings.
How sad. In 20 days, we won't have our friends at Rapture Ready to play with anymore. We'll lose about 60% of the quotes that end up here, and then we'll be left with MRA bullshit and David J. Kidfucker.
Or not, of course.
Here's a little-known fact: the rapture actually occurred during the lifetime of Jesus's disciples. It's just that nobody was pure enough to go. Humanity quickly rebuilt, since the disasters were localized to a very small segment of the Middle East. It was barely a blip on the radar, and no surviving records exist - any that were taken were destroyed, and very few were taken in the first place.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
