I'm sorry this is long, but I thought you may find the added information, at the bottom, of interest. It covers some of the events of blood moons, and solar eclipse - His warnings in the sky.
ARE YOU PREPARED
MATTHEW 22:14
For many are called, but few are chosen.
Have you ever stopped to think about the fact that, with the exception of Genesis, the rest of the Bible has portions of prophecy in it? The Old Testament is full of prophecy, completed prophecy that covers the coming of Christ, His death, and Resurrection. Also, there are many passages covering the future.
God wants as many of us as possible to make it to heaven, so He gives us plenty of warnings about the future events. None of us know the time or day, Jesus said, Matthew 24:36 "But about that day or hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only."
He wants to come back and find us 'about His Father's business.' I chose the verse I did, because He warns us in Matthew 7:23 Then will I declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.' And who are these workers of lawlessness? Check out Revelation 21:8 'But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and fornicators, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone'
Do I think I'm worthy of heaven - no, but I certainly am counting on John 14:6 "I am the way, and the t***h, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." Based on my belief in Jesus, I am praying I will fall under His mercy, and that He WILL know me, and forgive me.
The following portion is what I thought may be of interest to you. You can read the entire article here: http://www.jesusonmymind.com/services
NASA says there will be 12,064 lunar eclipses between -1999 BC and +3000 AD.
Of these 12,064 lunar eclipses, 3,479 will be total lunar eclipses. ThatÂ’s an average of less than one total lunar eclipse per year. It is an average of 2.5 lunar eclipses per year of "total plus partial" lunar eclipses.
During that time there will be 142 Lunar Tetrads (four total lunar eclipses in a row, with no intervening partial lunar eclipse). 62 will occur between 1 AD and 2100 AD. Of the 62, 8 will occur on Biblical Feast Days, so they are called "Biblical Tetrads". The 8th "Biblical Tetrad" occurs in 2014-2015 and there will not be another "Biblical Tetrad" for almost 600 years. We are in the time of this tetrad now.
The chances of any lunar eclipse occurring on any particular day, whether total or partial, is less than 3/365. The chances of one occurring on particular days 4 times in a row would be 3/365 x 3/365 x 3/365 x 3/365 = or about one in 100 x 100 x 100 x 100 = one in 100 million days, or once in 273,000 years. Nevertheless they have occurred on the first day of Passover and Tabernacles 7 times since 1 AD, and are getting ready to occur again in 2014 and 2015. Statistically, they should probably NEVER HAPPEN.
In 2014, the first of 4 total lunar eclipses occurred on Passover (First Feast Day), April 15, 2014, followed by a solar eclipse on April 29, 2014, then the second total lunar eclipse occurs on the Feast of Succoth or Tabernacles (Last Fall Feast Day), October 8, 2014, followed by another solar eclipse on October 23, 2014.
In 2015, the Jewish religious year begins with the total solar eclipse March 20, 2015, then two weeks later the third total lunar eclipse occurs on Passover, April 4, 2015, and then the civil year beginning with the partial solar eclipse on September 13, 2015 followed two weeks later by the fourth total blood red moon on the Feast of Succoth, September 28, 2015.
Tetrads of four sequential lunar eclipses with no intervening partial lunar eclipses occurs 6 other times in this century, but this is the only time it occurs on the Jewish holy days of Passover and Feast of Tabernacles.
The last time that four blood red moons occurred together was in 1967-1968, probably related to the recapture of Jerusalem by Israel. (The six day war) The time that the tetrad occurred before this was in 1949-1950, probably related to Israel becoming a nation. Before this time, the last occurrence was 1493-1494, probably related to the expulsion of the Jews from Spain. (Think Christopher Columbus)
Since 1 AD, a "Biblical tetrad" has occurred on these holy days a total of 7 times. In 2014-2015, it will be the 8th time. It won't occur again for another 500 years.
