Revelation 12 passage describes a woman, a child, and a dragon. A superficial reading of the text instantly brings to mind Mary, Christ, and Satan, who are certainly significant, prophetic types, but there is more to it than that.
The sign represents these individuals in a historical context, but also as larger, corporate entities. Biblical scholars have always understood the woman to represent Mary as an individual and as corporately: the nation of Israel. Likewise, the dragon clearly represents Satan as an individual and also the entire world system opposed to God. However, while the same scholars have observed that the male child is a symbol of Christ, they’ve missed the pattern. Just as the woman and dragon have corporate meanings, the male child does, too – it is the collective body of Christ. 1 Corinthians 12:12
September is Rosh Hashanah, The Feast of Trumpets, which begins around sunset the day before. There are seven biblical feasts (Leviticus 23:4-44) and Jesus fulfilled the first four in order:
The Feast of Passover – fulfilled by His death
The Feast of Unleavened Bread – fulfilled by His sinless life and burial
The Feast of First Fruits – fulfilled by His resurrection
The Feast of Pentecost – fulfilled by Jesus sending the Holy Spirit to indwell the Church
The very next feast in chronological order is The Feast of Trumpets, which happened to fall on September 22nd and 23rd in 2017 – when the possible sign occurs. This is certainly the season of Christ’s return and the signs appear to be plentiful.
There is also speculation that God is signalling His people: first because of a strange chain of events that began occurring shortly after the pregnancy began (when Jupiter entered Virgo’s womb) and secondly because of the strange circumstances surrounding the election of Donald Trump.
Time will tell. Be prayerful. Be ready.
MARANATHA!
