What evidence is there that the "1000-year Calendar," (based solidly upon the solar year of Y2K) is meant to be perpetuated on into eternity? After all, the data supplied by science is insufficient to conjecture beyond the 1000-year calendar, is it not? (
The 1000-year calendar results from the figures supplied by science for the solar year on and around Y2K (Jan. 1, 2000). However, the figures are not sufficiently accurate to positively identify any cycles beyond the 1000-year calendar level. Nevertheless, there are enough hints to presume that the 1000-year calendar is meant to be perpetuated forever.
In summary:
The 1000-year calendar ends with a pattern of "...x 24 x 150 x 24 ...x ?.x ?..."
The 1000-year calendar completes exactly one cluster of four-broadening cycles. This implies that it is the start of other clusters.
The initial and foundation 40-year cycle of the prophetic calendar contains within it patterns that are repeated on the macro scale of the enormous broadening cycles:
a) The total number of years in each fourfold-broadening cluster amounts to exactly times 36 years on the 1000-years-equals-one-day ratio. This is the same number of years as the first segment of the initial 40-year cycle. (See charts below.)
b) The 360 + 360 + 360 + 390-days pattern of the last four years of the initial 40-year cycle is remarkable similar to the last year of each cycle of the fourfold broadening cycle. (See charts below).
Y2K is perfectly centered between the coordinates of when the solar year of the 1000-year calendar occurs, and when the solar year for the Eternal calendar occurs. The former occurred two days before Y2K, the latter two days after. For the significance of why these "two days" see, "The Seventh Reason Why Y2K.")
Concurring with Ps. 90, it is in character for God to not only create the 1000-year calendar that finite man can somewhat grasp, but also to have an eternal calendar that only He, the infinite God, can grasp.
Before we look at the above five points in detail, here are a few tables that will help conceptualize the information.

In detail:
- The 1000-year calendar ends with a pattern of "...x 24 x 150 x 24 ...x ?.x ?..."
The 1000-year calendar begins what looks to be the start of a sequence. There are 40 x 100 x 24 x 150 x 24. It would make sense that the next figure would be consistent with the previous enlarging cycles. If we were to conjecture what this next figure would be by its relationship to the solar year on Y2K, the next value would have to be large---as much as times 300. (See table three). Since times 150 for the next value produces a tidy sequence of 24 x 150 x 24 x 150 ..., and is 3,600 squared altogether---it seems the likely choice.
The 24 x 150 x 24 x 150… would form interlocking multiples of 3,600, (i.e., 24 x 150 = 3,600, etc.) And each fourfold broadening cycle would therefore be 3,600 squared, (or, 60 x 60 x 60).
The 1000-year calendar completes
exactly one cluster of four-broadening cycles. This implies that it is the start of other clusters.
The broadening
cycles are themselves grouped in cycles of four. (See table two.) That is, every
fourth broadening cycle repeats the same form of leap-month adjustment.
For example, the 40-year cycle is "normal," in that a
leap-month is added as normal. And likewise, four broadening cycles
later (i.e. 40 x 100 x 24 x 150 x 24)
the leap month is again added normally. Thus, the solar year of
365.242189670139 of the
"Thousand-Years-is-as-One-Day Calendar"
creates one fourfold broadening cycle, but no more. This implies that
the calendar is meant to persist onto yet larger cycles, and clusters of
broadening cycles. Hence, "The Eternal Calendar."
The initial and foundation 40-year cycle
of the prophetic calendar contains within it patterns that are repeated on
the macro scale of the enormous broadening cycles:
a) The total number of years in each fourfold-broadening cluster
amounts to exactly times 36 years on the 1000-years-equals-one-day
ratio. This is the same number of years as the first segment
of the initial 40-year cycle. (Compare table one and two.)
If the Eternal
Calendar is composed of cycles of 24 x 150 x 24 x 150 (or 150 x 24 x 150 x 24),
then this
equals a total of times 12,960,000 years. It happens that 12,960,000 years on
the thousand-years-equals-one-day ratio
equals but 36 years, and 36 years is the total number of years of the first
segment of the 40-year cycle!
b) The 360 + 360 + 360 + 390-days pattern of the last
four years of the initial 40-year cycle is remarkable similar to the last year
of each cycle of the fourfold broadening cycle. (See table two.)
(See table three, sixth line down.) The 1000-year calendar is composed of the first five lines in yellow. The next line begins the assumed Eternal calendar. There are only two things we know about the first cycle after the 1000 year calendar (that begins the Eternal calendar). If we narrowly restrict ourselves to Y2K for what is the prophetic solar year, we know that whatever the next cycle is, it must be quite large. Y2K would can for the next cycle to be about x300. This means that the 1000-year calendar would continue to be accurate for at least 300 more cycles, or about 100 billion years!
The second thing we know about the
assumed cycle that follows the 1000-year calendar cycles is that whatever
it is, it must "subtract a month." This is important because it
sets a consistent pattern with all the cycles before it. As a matter of
fact, if the astronomical coordinates on Y2K for a solar year called for the
calendar at this point to "add a month," it would not only have
been inconsistent with what went before it, but it would be wrong. It would
call for there to be two leap months added to one year!1 It is one thing to omit a leap month, it is another to
add two of them. The following is how the last year of the
broadening cycles end as based on the limited coordinates of Y2K: (See tables two and three.)
360 + 390 + 360 + 360 + 360 +390 + 360 +...??? The 360 in red represents the cycle that follows the 1000-year cycle. What comes after this is conjecture based upon the emerging pattern. The 360 + 360 + 360 +390 pattern is assumed to be repeated endlessly after the pattern of the last four years of the initial 40-year cycle, (see table one.) |
Y2K is perfectly centered between the coordinates of when the solar year of the 1000-year calendar occurs, and when the solar year for the Eternal calendar occurs. The former occurred two days before Y2K, the latter two days after. For the significance of why these "two days" see, "The Seventh Reason Why Y2K.")
The two days prior to Y2K represents the previous 2,000 years on the 1000-years-equals-one-day ratio. The two days after Y2K represents the next 2000 years into our future.
| Y2K = Jan. 1, 2000. It was popularly celebrated around the world as 2,000 years from the birth of Christ.2 |
|
(Year 2000) |
Two days before Y2K, the solar year for the 1000-year calendar occurred at 365.242 189 670 138 888....days
Two days after Y2K, the solar year was 365.242 189 669 536 24, which is the solar year of the Eternal calendar
The average of these two calendars therefore occurred in the middle---that is, on (the morning) of Y2K at 365.242 189 669 838.3 The fact that it was the morning of Y2K (in Israel) is important since morning is the middle of a 24-hour day in Jewish reckoning. See "point seven."
Hence, 2 days prior to Y2K symbolized 1 BC, and the two days after Y2K (the anniversary of the dividing line of BC/AD) symbolized AD 4000. Y2K was symbolic of itself---namely of the year AD 2000, which is what Y2K in fact means! Thus from the perspective of Y2K, "yesterday" was like "a thousand year when it is past," (Ps. 90:4, see next). This, and the next point, is strong evidence for the Eternal calendar.
- Concurring with Ps. 90, it is in character for God to not only create the 1000-year calendar that finite man can somewhat grasp, but also to have an eternal calendar that only He, the infinite God, can grasp. The same Psalm of Moses (Ps. 90) that inspired Peter to say that a day is as 1000 years (etc.), also speaks of the eternality of God.
"A Prayer of Moses, the man of God.
O LORD, You have been our dwelling-place in all generations. Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever You had formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting You are God. You turn man to dust, and say, Return, sons of men. For a thousand years in Your sight are as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night."
(Ps. 90:1-4)All four of the above perspectives of time are an integral part of the prophetic calendar.
"...all generations" (I.e., the first cycle is 40 years---i.e...., "a generation." But a generation can also be 100 years too; and it happens that the next cycle is 40 x 100.)
"...from everlasting to everlasting" (I.e., The Eternal Calendar.)
"...a thousand years in Your sight are as yesterday when it is past" (I.e., the 1000-year calendar, 1Pet. 3:8.)
"a thousand years...as a watch in the night." (A Jewish watch divided a 24-hour day into 6 parts, the Romans into 8 parts.
The prophetic calendar likewise divides thousand-year periods into 6 and 8 parts---
both within the literal thousand years, and within the symbolic "thousand years" already reduced by the ratio of a 1000-years-is-as-a-day!)4
Conclusion
Therefore we conclude that the Eternal Calendar must be included (and flow out from) the 1000-year calendar if we are to be consistent with Ps. 90,4 with Y2K, and with the emerging patterns of the 1000-year calendar.
Endnotes:
1.) A regular prophetic year has 360 days in it. A year with a leap month added to it in order to adjust to the prophetic solar year of 365.242189669536 has 390 days. If a broadening cycle lacks two of these leap months it means that the end of that cycle, (which must always be the end of the smaller 40-year cycle), has just 360 days in it; and 4 years earlier (the 6th of the 7-cycle pattern of the initial 40-year cycle) would also has just 360 days. (See tables one and two).
Therefore, when the leap month is omitted twice, (see the blue rows in second table below), it means that the last ten years (6 + 4) of the 40-year cycle is left unadjusted, and thus has 3,600 days in it. This 3,600 days is a precursor of the 3,600 years of broadening cycles that follows the first broadening cycle of this type, and that completes the 1000-year calendar. (See table two, lines 4-6.)
2.) Y2K = Jan. 1, 2000. It was popularly celebrated around the world as 2,000 years from the birth of Christ. But actually, Dec. 25th makes Jan. 1st the day when Jesus' was circumcised and named (Luke 2:21). Y2K is popularly regarded as 2,000 years from the dividing line (mirror) of our BC/AD calendar, though the actual number is 1,999 years. (This, too, is significant.)
3.) No doubt the figure of 365.2421896698 for noon Y2K is only an approximate by scientists, and may only be true, say, to the eighth decimal point. But even if rounded to the eight decimal point as 365.24218967---yet even this would be sufficient to establish the 1 x 40 x 100 x 24 x 150 x 24 pattern of the 1000-year calendar. However, since the strange computer looping of time on Y2K was a sign (see "Why Y2K?"), is it not a small matter to consider the exact 365.2421896698 set by astronomers to be the hand of God too---even if it proves in years to come to have been out a little?
Furthermore, if for arguments sake we could except no greater accuracy for Y2K than to the fourth or fifth decimal point, (a very low minimum indeed!) we would then have cycles of 1 x 40 x 100 x 25 (or, 100,000 years). (The solar year would then be reduced to 365.2422.) While this is only an approximate of the full 40 x 100 x 24 x 150 x 24 pattern, it nevertheless is completely compatible with it. For to be consistent with the overall structure of the prophetic calendar, the 96,000 years of the first four cycles (1 x 40 x 100 x 24) implies a further 4000 years to complete it (equaling 100,000 years). (See here and here for more.)
Note also that 100,000 years equals 1000 generations of 100 years. This agrees with the words spoken to Moses about the time of the Exodus:
"The LORD passed before him, and proclaimed, "The LORD, the LORD, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness, keeping steadfast love for the thousandth generation, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, yet by no means clearing the guilty, but visiting the iniquity of the parents upon the children and the children's children, to the third and the fourth generation," (Ex. 34:6,7 NRSV, cf., Gen. 15:12-16).
4.) Regarding Psalm 90:
On the ratio of "a thousand years...as a watch in the night" (verse 4), the last cycle of the 1000-year calendar would symbolically read as 160 or 120 years---both very significant numbers in the life of Moses . (See table two ==> 345,600,000-years divided by 1000, = 345,600 years, divided by 360 days [in a prophetic year] = 960 "years", divided by 6 parts in a Jewish day = 160 "years." But divided by 8 parts of a Roman day [as in Jesus time], = 120 "years.") Moses died at 120 years of age (3 x 40), and 160 years (4 x 40) is four generations of 40 years. God delivered the nation of Israel by Moses after four generations of 100 years, as promised, "in the fourth generation" (Gen. 15:16), (see previous endnote).
The average of a generation of 40 and 100 years are 70 years---an important number in the accumulated leap months of prophetic calendar, (40 + 100 = 140, divided by 2 = 70 years). And 80 is the age of Moses when he delivered Israel from Egypt; (and is half of 160 years). Therefore, note the "70" and "80 years" of verse 10:
"For all our days pass away under your wrath; our years come to an end like a sigh. The days of our life are seventy years, or perhaps eighty, if we are strong; even then their span is only toil and trouble; they are soon gone, and we fly away." (Ps. 90:9,10)
Besides the mention of this 70 and 80 years, Psalm 90 even contains the poetic paralleling of "days" with "years" so central to the bible numbers. God told Moses to tell Israel that they would wander in the desert 40 years, "a year for each day" that they spied out the land in unbelief (Num. 14:34). This 40 years completes the third part of Moses life, which was divided into three even 40-year periods, (Acts 7:23, 30). Thus, Ps. 90 contains all the various ratios and dimensions of the prophetic calendar. It is the only Psalm by Moses in the book of Psalms, and it was to Moses that God commanded the year of the Exodus to be the first of the calendar years:
"And the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying, This month shall be to you the beginning of months. It shall be the first month of the year to you."
(Ex. 12:1, 2, etc.)
