Second Adam
I imagine that you have either seen or possibly mentally visualize the age of the earth as in the attached image.
This represents the 7-day creation cycle, but each day in the week now becoming 1,000 years of human existence.
What dawned on me this past Shabbat was that #second #adam/Yeshua could then have come to earth on days 3 or 4 and not day-6 as per the creation event.
The only ways for me to wrap my head around it are to consider that either:
1. Father didn't follow the 7-day pattern for the duration of mankind and therefore this larger 7 millennia pattern is a church fallacy.
2. The understanding of the dates to Yeshua's birth are incorrect and Yeshua did come during the 6th #millenium. (Just think on how the #430years of Israel wondering is calculated differently between different groups and therefore larger mistakes could also come into play.)
3. Dates and times have been changed in history and our understanding is way off. (Remember that history is written by the conqueror and in 1981 William J. #casey, #cia Director said: "We'll know our #disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false.")
What happens if the dates are out by 3 or 30 or even 300 years?
What does that do to our belief in end-time #prophets giving predictions like "Yeshua returning in #2030"?
What will happen to our endurance when the goalpost is moved and 2030 comes and goes?

"What dawned on me this past Shabbat was that #second #adam/Yeshua could then have come to earth on days 3 or 4 and not day-6 as per the creation event. " - He came on day 4, not 6. We are currently in Day 6.
#1 - I may have stated it before, I've never heard a church teach this. It is all "anything can happen at any time because we don't know anything" when it comes to any prophecy the churches I've attended interpreted.
#2 - Goes back to the main point. I don't understand where you are seeing Yeshua came in the 6th millennium.
#3 - Yes, but there are ways to validate through historical documentation, and more specifically, the Bible. (Should be queued up: https://youtu.be/VI1yRTC6kGE?s....i=Tpy54W-mw62buuH0&a )
The unbulleted questions: For me, I would probably then default back to the 'church mindset' and anything could happen at anytime and I'll never know how or when it'll happen.
The 2030 thing for me is new and out of all the events growing up that were "supposed to be the Return", it is at least studied out and makes sense with Scripture.
Maybe I've been through too many "Return" events I am jaded, but if 2030 comes and goes, I'll keep going as I am today. It'll just be another incorrect prediction.
