the time, time, and a half a time? is that squaring the 3.45?
or is it 1x3.45x3.45x(3.45/2)= ?

it also depends on the definition of "day"
a day could be a thousand years in God's eyes, making it the year 1,260,000

so you see, there are several interpretations.

it may not be a literal number, but rather a symbolic significance.
in Genesis people lived to be 930 years old. really? its meant symbolically.
3 - meaning Trinity

3 squared (squared is written as a superscript 2. 2 representing the duality of Christ the human and the divine). 3 squared would be 9.

10 - the power of God

3x10=30 (Trinity multiplied by the power of God)

10 squared being 100
100x9=900
900+30=930

930 is a reference not to the age of the Methuselah (or whoever), but rather to the holiness and his faith in God.

the 1260 in Revelation is meant symbolically. also look up the 144,000 marked in Revelation. that gives a better idea of what Im trying to get at.


EDIT:

also just read at whatever pace, I didnt mean anything about how far I was. I was just saying.



Oh, what lovely numbers!

I am grateful;- Thank you for being so good to help me.


Seriously, why I check 1260 days . that like

Date difference from Nov 12, 2010 to Apr 25, 2014
It is the total number of days between Friday, November 12th, 2010 and Friday, April 24th, 2014 is1,260 days.
This is equal to exactly 3 years, 5 months, and 13 days.
It is the total time span from 2010-11-12 to 2014-04-24 is30,240 hours.
This is equivalent to1,814,400 minutes.
You can also convert1,260 days to108,864,000 seconds.

here is the breakdown for numbers 1-12 and a few others of significance

1 - the one true God
2 - the Duality of Christ (the Human and the Divine)
3 - The Trinity
4 - 4 corners of the globe
5 - not sure about this one. since its halfway between 1 and 10 it could mean fairness?
6 - imperfection as it falls short of 7
7 - 7 days to create the world (6 days + the day He rested, thus 7)
8 - the 8 Beattitudes
9 - the Trinity squared (3x3=9)
10 - the power of God
11 - havent figured it out yet, annd there may not even be a significance to it
12 - the 12 Apostles
13 - the 12 Apostles + their teacher Jesus
14 - 7 doubled
15 - the fairness of God's judgement
16 - 4 squared (4x4=16)
17 - see #11
18 - not sure
19 - not sure
20 - the power of God multiplied by the Duality of Christ. also a reference to the significance of God becoming man through Jesus Christ.

the rest of the numbers you can figure out by simply adding, subtracting, mutliply, divide.

Thank you and assure you that I and brothers sisters will learn from your writings.


I do not know many numbers meaning, but I have loved number 7 and 3 always, 7 days the perfections of God creation, and 7 angels who stand ready and enter before the glory of the Lord.

In those twilights of the sky, in those numbers of stars, in the azure sky,time after time,

I gazed at the sky, I want search for ,



Despair swept away,

as in a dream, I felt what Holy Mother felt; as through a mist, my understanding could not grasp. See, Revelation means in the future, I would rather not think that Revelation still in the future.

I would rather believe that now Michael defeats the dragon.

See, there will be danger times on earth, for the dragon fights again on the earth ,

...

and we Christians need show courage during this times,

but The New Heaven and the New Earth will come soon, and the River of Life and eternal happiness inexhaustible.

Hi,

Might I also suggest that 4 has significance as to the 4 Gospels and I believe the 4 elders or creatures before the Throne of God in heaven [I cannot remember.]

5 - The Five Sacred Wounds of Jesus Christ

I liked your post. Thanks for sharing.

God bless.

I thought I mentioned the Gospels as it was the Gospels that were spread to the 4 corners of the globe. Rather I thought it was implied, but I'll be more specific next time.


I realized the second I posted about the 5 Wounds. Also the Pentateuch and the first 5 churches.

And there is 5 wise bridesmaids took their lamp with oil to meet bridegroom.

I read Romans 8 today,

Romans 8
8There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.2For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death.3For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do: by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and to deal with sin, he condemned sin in the flesh,4so that the just requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. 5For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit. 6To set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.7For this reason the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God’s law—indeed it cannot,8and those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
9 But you are not in the flesh; you are in the Spirit, since the Spirit of God dwells in you. Anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him.10But if Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, the Spirit is life because of righteousness.11If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will give life to your mortal bodies also through his Spirit that dwells in you.
12 So then, brothers and sisters, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh—13for if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.14For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God.15For you did not receive a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received a spirit of adoption. When we cry, ‘Abba! Father!’16it is that very Spirit bearing witness with our spirit that we are children of God,17and if children, then heirs, heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ—if, in fact, we suffer with him so that we may also be glorified with him.



18 I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory about to be revealed to us.19For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the children of God;20for the creation was subjected to futility, not of its own will but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope21that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to decay and will obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God.22We know that the whole creation has been groaning in labour pains until now;23and not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly while we wait for adoption, the redemption of our bodies.24For in hope we were saved. Now hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what is seen?25But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience.
26 Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but that very Spirit intercedes with sighs too deep for words.27And God, who searches the heart, knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.
