The Revelation 12 Heavenly Sign on 23 September 2017?

A quick look at something I keep bumping into increasingly  on the web and on a certain video website and  that is the predicted final 7 years of this age all forming around a date of 23 September 2017 . Being hailed as "A sign in the heaven"  or "The Sign of the Woman" which happens to be a day after Rosh Hashana in 2017 which is on 21-22 September 2017. Something  that has not happened in 7000 years! It seems to be exploding on the web. Don´t normally look at this sort of thing in any great detail, but this is not something to be ignored and this 23 September date just keeps coming up on my travels............so thought I would take a closer look.

Many are saying this could herald the start of the 7 year Tribulation  Period  or the 3.5 Year Great Tribulation which would provide yet another Pre Tribulation Rapture point, amongst many other things???

Four videos are included here, the first is a short but slick number like a trailer that skims the surface  and gives a general idea what the fuss is all about. The second video is much more in depth giving way more detail with computer program simulations that show star and planetary positions on the 23 Sept 2017 date and also at the time of the birth of Jesus. That video is at the foot of this article.



The whole Prophecy prediction is based on Revelation 12:1-2. below.

1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:
2.And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.

What to make of it all? .
Before I start, just a warning. Planetary alignments, conjunctions, Astrology, Bible Codes and Numerology are forms of divination warned about in the Bible. Something I mentioned in one of my recent videos about False Prophets. How to spot them?



Here's 3 Bible quotes that make it quite clear what God thinks of Divination in it's many shapes and forms.

There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch.
Deuteronomy:18:10

Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.
Jeremiah:14:14

They have seen vanity and lying divination, saying, The LORD saith: and the LORD hath not sent them: and they have made others to hope that they would confirm the word.
Ezekiel:13:6

The Light Bulb Coincidence?
With that out of the way, which expresses my views on the subject as well, why is this prophecy even being considered? Another prophecy I stumbled across that doesn´t mention planetary alignments or conjunctions but uses the Book of Daniel as it´s foundation got me considering this further. It involves the Jewish Event and New Year Rosh Hashana  and the sighting of the New Moon. This other theory has come up ALSO with this bizarre date of 23 September 2017? using a completely different method using the "Daniels Days" theory which you could say is Numerology but has nothing to do with "The Woman" in Revelation 12:1-2 (or maybe it does). This is no coincidence. It´s incredibly in depth and something to watch when you have a lot of spare time as you´ll probably have to watch it two or three times, but I tell you, it is a light bulb moment! It´s been left till last and is at the foot of this article.



The New Pre Tribulation Rapture Point Theory on the block?
These two theories CAN indicate significant events to come, and as I have stated many times we are in "a significant period" . The last Trump of this 2016 Rosh Hashana on 3 and 4 Oct Jewish New Year (Jubilee) event was stated by many as the possible Rapture before the Tribulation known as The Pre Tribulation Rapture. Not one I personally subscribe to, as I think we are going through some or most of the Tribulation the same as everybody else as a "testing of Faith". As with many recent Prophecies, the 2016 Rosh Hashana Pre Trib Rapture is another prophecy consigned to the waste bin only to be replaced with this new 23 September 2017 "The Woman in the Sky"  or "The Sign in the Heaven" Prophecy theory that is being hailed as the New Pre Tribulation Rapture point.


The Problem with this 23 September 2017 Theory
The second more in depth video, I have to say  looks feasible, carries some weight and the man himself seems sane, rational and knows his stuff. The problem is, like all  prophecy theories, it´s not 100% watertight. A rare event, doesn´t necessarily guarantee that the prophecy is correct.  Also taking a verse out of its context and making it serve some new theory such as this, you also have to question. If you take a single Bible verse and do not see how it sits in context or relation to the rest of the Chapter you will inevitably misinterpret that verse. You will turn a God made Prophecy into a speculative unreliable and man made Prophecy. It could materialise, but then again maybe not? It remains to be seen whether this planetary activity is what is mentioned in Revelation 12:1-2. Could be a cloud formation in daylight hours with the moon still visible early morning and clothed by the sun with prominent stars shining overhead?

Some big names have made similar predictions in the past over at a large video website in connection with the mysterious Book of Revelation, which again never really materialised in a definite way, but needless to say generated a lot of interest before the predicted time of the occurrence. As with all these video channels when the Prophecy fails, they just move onto another one, move things a year forward, generate a massive amount of interest and hope for the best with fingers crossed. What I´m trying to say is this, this can´t be dismissed, but also can´t be relied on 100% either. True prophecy is 100% on the money!

Conclusion
As I said in my recent Article False Prophets and Failed Prophecies, if you are involved in the End Times Scenario in any shape or form, you have to take everything on board and analyse even the most ridiculous, take it seriously,  before consigning it to the Prophecy Garbage Bin.

This latest "Woman in the Sky on 23 September 2017" and the New Rapture date reminds me of the Blood Moon Tetrad on 4 Jewish Holy Days. These were significant events but were not the Blood Moon mentioned in Revelation in my opinion. Yet again it remains to be seen whether this "Woman in the Sky" theory and Prophecy actually materialises which will be proven by the Rapture at that time. We have to wait for nearly a year to find out. As with all these Prophecies, it's compelling, convincing and looks very professiona,l but time will tell whether Revelation Chapter 12 will pan out on that particular date. In the meantime I'll stick with my Mid or Post Tribulation Rapture theory that ensures I keep my sanity and my faith. Will certainly not be planning my life around this date as intriguing as it is.

Jesus is coming, and the time is getting close to some sort of start of a Tribulation Period with Matthew 24 and the earthquakes in diverse places and wars and rumours of wars ringing in our ears...we are definitely in those times , that's for sure. In the meantime the web will be awash with new theories and Prophecies, most of them incorrect or way off the mark to keep us Christians entertained in the foreseeable future. It has to be said though from somebody that is sceptical of such things and just gives a cursory glance once in a while, these 2 different theories leading to exactly the same date do indicate something very interesting indeed! Certainly coincides with what many people are saying that things are ramping up in this world and something HUGE is just around the corner.  Certainly lines up with what I was saying in a recent video about where we are on the Revelation Prophecy Time Line I leave you with this final video. Form your own opinion. Bible quotes after the video.

Luke 21:25  And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;

Genesis 1:14  And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:

Jeremiah 10:2 Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them.
