The truth is that the first day and the last day of each fractal period starts and ends at the start and end of a specific month, except the first day of the second seal / horseman which began on October 14, 2014, anniversary of the battle of Hasting (1066) which launched the British royalty era (see in the blog why it's so important).

3) What is unknown is the DAY and the HOUR, not the week, or the month.
4) If Jesus tells the apostles that 'this is not for YOU to know' it is because he speaks to the apostles, and no one else, having lived 2,000 years ago! NOT FOR THE CURRENT CIVILIZATION.
The truth is that 1,260 days is made of FOUR FRACTAL PERIODS, for the FOUR HORSEMEN ending the Christian era (7 fractal periods of the 7 churches), of: 84 days + 168 (84x2) + 336 (168x2) + 672 (33-x2) = 1,260 days! Etc. Etc. Etc.

This is a pedantic evasion of the clear intention of the statement, namely that we would have no foreknowledge of the timing of the event.
In Acts he talks about not knowing "times or seasons". In telling us that we would not know when to expect the Return, he saw no need to specify every possible unit that man might use as a time-division, because he did not think he was writing a legal document.
He thought he was talking to people who would understand the word "No" as a "No".
4) If Jesus tells the apostles that 'this is not for YOU to know' it is because he speaks to the apostles, and no one else, having lived 2,000 years ago! NOT FOR THE CURRENT CIVILIZATION.
He tells the Apostles "it is not for you to know" because they are human. It is a matter which is not available for human knowledge.
That is confirmed by the words that follow; "...which the Father has fixed by his own authority".
Are you God the Father? If not, then the knowledge will not be available to you.
Until it comes, nobody will know except the Father.

You seem to think that God is playing with a spiritual slide-rule, trying to juggle events into exact time-intervals.
The problem is that there is NO EVIDENCE WHATEVER that this is how God works. He did not work with exact time-intervals in the events of Bible history, and he never said at any time that he would work like that.
Therefore we have no reason whatever to think that any of these calculations will be valid.
Unless you can prove that God is using the same slide-rule that you are using, you should throw it away.
All these calculations are being made because people have insufficient Faith.
Trying to calculate when God will come is a symptom of impatience, and impatience means that Faith is failing.
Anyone who has Faith will be able to wait patiently for events to happen when they will happen.
We have no need to know anything more, and so the knowledge is not given.

BUT, he also clearly states seven times at the beginning of the Book of Revelation that 'who have ears will hear'. Why would he need to add this, insisting on it, if it's not to tell us that the ones who want to know and understand will be able to do so.
This is YOUR interpretation of Christ's words.
God is not PLAYING. God plans his deeds, like he makes his perfect laws of physics.
Therefore, Jesus-Christ who must return in / on a 'cloud' will come in an extradimensional ET spaceship.

If you think that Christ NEEDS a spaceship in order to return, you clearly have no grasp at all of the power of God.
That idea completely destroys your credibility as an interpreter of the Bible.

Thta is exactly my point.
God does not play with silly patterns of historical events at exact time intervals,such as the one you are creating from your own imagination.
There is no evidence that anything in the Bible was planned to work out that way, and he has never said at any time that he would make things happen that way.
Furthermore, there is no evidence whatever that he is following YOUR chosen pattern.
There are thousands of these imaginary patterns scattered around the internet. What makes your pattern any more valid than any of the others?

This comes in the context of telling the church how they must deal with persecution and idolatry.
For this purpose, all that is necessary is that they find themselves surrounded by circumstances of persecution and idolatry.
There is no need for them to know in advance when it will come; they just have to deal with it when it does come.
And that sums up the whole purpose of the Book of Revelation.
It is not a timetable. It is just an exhortation urging the persecuted church to remain faithful.
This is YOUR interpretation of Christ's words.
It is the interpretation of everyone who reads the words "You are not meant to know" in honesty and good faith.
Deliberately twisting them round to mean the opposite of what they say is simply perverse.
Yes, there are metaphors in the gospels and epistles about watching for the "signs". But to me this is more about becoming aware that something is "in the air", a raising of the "alert level", as it were. They don't invite us to pin our expectations to a specific date.
PS In fact, come to think of it, if we knew a date we would not NEED signs. We would just need a calendar. The very fact that we're invited to look for signs shows that we don't know a date.

You're even using the same pictures from your last time.
How was the spaceship ride and when are the UFO's going to invade the UK and take William and Kate?
At least this time you gave yourself almost 30 years to be proven wrong....2043.....I can't wait!
Seriously people....look up the above aliases and you will find plenty on his numerous claims and being wrong every time. He claimed to have flown in a spaceship and all kinds of other stuff....
