Time and Calendar Decoded: Can Anyone Tell Me What Time It Is
()
About this ebook
Time and Calendar Decoded has discovered there are glitches in time. Bishop Braswell has successfully decoded time, with the discovery that our years are miscalculated, discovering our days of the week are miscalculated as well. Previous calendar researchers and their understanding of time has actually caused time to be viewed as an illusion. The calendars many mistakes made it hard to calculate the actual calendar time. The book starts by going back to the biblical calendar of Genesis chapter five. Resetting the course of time also required considering the rebirth of Israel as a nation on May 14, 1948, representing the birthday of Abraham and all the patriots. As we go backward in time, we successfully find the actual crucifixion date. When we go back further, by thirty-three and a half years. it will show you the actual birth date of Jesus Christ. Do we really know the correct date of Christs birth?

Time and Calendar Decoded - Bishop L. Mack Braswell
Does Anyone Really Know What
Time It Is
What would be the question in your mind if you knew that the years of our calendar and even the days of the week were off? How would you feel if Thursday was really Sunday and Wednesday was really Saturday? Would it make a difference in your life as an individual? As a nation, even the world? Do the days of the week have a special significance for man? According to God, they do. The reason we know this is because we know that the Sabbath day is a day that we should rest. For the Israelites were told to do no works on the Sabbath day for it is Holy unto God. When we look at the word rest
, rest is the first part of the word restore. You cannot be restored unless you rest. The Sabbath day is meant as a day to rest and be restored. The Jewish people believe that the Sabbath day is the empowerment day for the rest of the week and we get our energy to operate on a daily basis on the Sabbath day. Rest also is a restoration of lost of energy. When an automobile is full of gasoline and the tank holds only ten gallons, when the needle registers close to empty and a red light comes on, the driver knows that it is time to stop and refill the tank. If not, you are not going anywhere because your energy is gone. The body is the same way. Even God himself is the same because Genesis 2:1-2, ¹Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made
.
States that on the Sabbath day he rested because he had been giving out of his creative abilities and he needed a restoration of what he had given out. That is why God rested on the Sabbath day. Since we are created in his image, he expects us to do the same. He made Sabbath days rest a law to be followed by humans.
Now, we are challenging time as it exists today to ask the question have the time calendar, in its present form, been investigated by anyone else other than James Ussher, (January 4, 1581-March 21, 1656)²? Today most nations go by the British Time Act of 1751. This time act was put into play in 1752. Since the British accepted his time study as the correct timing
his research has not been challenged, it is still being used today by the whole world. He was a Bishop of the Catholic Church and he did a great job without having the tools that we now have. By taking the time to do such a study, he looked at the time calendar of another Monk named Dionysius Exiguus ³ who did a challenge of time about 600 AD. In his time study he was three months and sixteen days off. James Ussher also looked at this material and made adjustments.
Many bible scholars, who took his time charts as a correct record, dated some bibles by it. The Scoffield Study bible used James Ussher’s dating system to date the pages of the bible. For instance, it states that Adam was created 4004 BC and that Christ was birthed 4 BC which give you the total of 4000 years from Adam to Christ. We will discuss this later in the formula for determining time according to the Bible. After the year 1996, most bible scholars discarded his information as incorrect information. As a result we have been left: not knowing where we are time wise. But, no one has come out with another study to determine exactly where we are, date wise.
I sought the Lord
As I personally have sought the Lord for the correct time that we may determine where we are on his time calendar, because we know that God does things in perfection, and he also is a God of order. God does things by precise timing. In the Bible, he gave the sun, the moon and the stars to be set in the heaven and they would be for signs and seasons which make up days, months and years.
The question has been asked by many, exactly what is time? Some believe that time is an energy that flows. There are many who have other opinions. We will give you a definition of time from the: Strong Hebrew and: Greek Concordance ⁴:
Hebrew
3117 yowm yome from an unused root meaning to be hot; a day (as the warm hours), whether literal (from sunrise to sunset, or from one sunset to the next), or figurative (a space of time defined by an associated term), (often used adverb): -age, + always, + chronicals, continually(-ance), daily, ((birth-), each, to) day, (now a, two) days (agone), + elder, X end, + evening, + (for) ever(-lasting, -more), X full, life, as (so) long as (. . . live), (even) now, + old, + outlived, + perpetually, presently, + remaineth, X required, season, Xsince, space, then, (process of) time, + as at other times, + in trouble, weather, (as) when, (a, the, within a) while (that), X whole (+ age), (full) year(-ly), + younger.
Greek
2540. kairos kahee-ros’ of uncertain affinity; an occasion, i.e. set or proper time: -X always, opportunity, (convenient, due) season, (due, short, while) time, a while.
From my God given understanding of time, the reason he used the earth the stars, the moon and the sun for the telling of time is because all of these have motion. A day is determined by one rotation of the earth from evening to evening point. A month was determined by the new moon which is the heading of the month. A year is determined by the revolving of the earth around the sun and ending at the same point each year. It must line up with the four seasons of the year. In the beginning a Jewish year in the old testament from Genesis chapter one to chapter nine covered 360 days, in time past, it revolved around the earth 360 degrees which is the degrees of a perfect complete circle. I will discuss that in our formulation of time.
The Formula for Determining Time
Just as James Ussher and others went back to the creation to determine time, we too will do the same. There must be an understanding that in Genesis 1:1, the earth was not created in time or 6,000 years ago. The earth was created in the first eternity. In Psalm 90:2-4, Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God . . . . For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night
.
We must determine why it would be stated, from everlasting to everlasting thou art God. How can there be two everlastings when everlasting is suppose to be forever without contradiction. The answer is everlasting is continuous, for billions of years which can be determined by the knowledge of God, if we ask for it. If you take a paper and draw a small chart of a line coming from the right to the left to the center of the page and put an arrow at the right and left side: of the page on the line, that would mean without end. Come to the center of the page and place a small vertical line and start a circle and come back to the same place and draw in the circle where you started. That circle is representative of the process of time because time is a cycle. When you come back to the beginning of the circle where the end touches the beginning time is completed and because of the place where it left eternity, the line which represents where eternity and eternity meets and start over again.
CIRCLEOFTIME.jpgFrom everlasting to everlasting thou art God. This means that there are two everlastings which are represented by the beginning as the first everlasting and the ending as the second everlasting, interrupted briefly by time. Where time begins, time ends. Therefore when time ends, we are touching the beginning, then we step back into eternity again. In the beginning of time, this must be understood that eternity is also a type of time. Just operates on a slower pace.
Formula
We come to this conclusion that God does things in symmetry. Symmetry⁵ means the correspondence in size, form, and arrangement of parts on opposite sides of a plane, line, or point; regularity of form or arrangement in terms of like, reciprocal, or corresponding parts. For example, in a day’s time there is 1440 minutes in a day. In Rev. 14 we have 144,000 Jews that shall go out and preach the gospel of the kingdom. In a day of time you have 86,400 seconds in a day. The sun which gives us daylight hours is 864,000 miles in diameter, which is symmetry at work. God gives man 6,000 years to do his work. The Old Jewish year which is 360 days per year x 6,000 gives us 2,160,000 days for man to do his work. The moon is in symmetry to the days of 6000 years. This gives us 2,160 miles in diameter for the moon. God said in Exodus 20:8-11, Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed It
.
Since God works in symmetry with himself and one day with him is a thousand years, therefore, six days with God is six thousand years of earth time. On the Sabbath Day God ended his work and he rested. This is the first time that ended is used in comparison with time. Suggesting that the end time cannot begin until we cross over into the 7,000 year period of time because the number seven means completion. There is a process of time when we cross over into the 7,000 year period time for God to complete his work before he rest. Because Genesis 2:2, And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made
.
For ending something takes a process of time also to end and it can only start when the 7th began. I must emphatically state that we have crossed over into the seventh day of time, and God is in the process of ending his work, we crossed over on July 14, 2005, which I will later explain.
We will deal with the question of how we can know where we are in time. Many Bible scholars believe today that Israel is our time piece. Israel was rebirth on May 14, 1948. We can set our clock of time by this date. By looking at Genesis 11:26, And Terah lived seventy years, and begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran again, and the year that Abraham, who is the Father of Israel, was born
.
God works in symmetry with himself
Since God works in symmetry with himself when doing our calculations of the beginning years from the time of Adam, until the birth of Abraham was 1948 years. The same number of years on our calendar from Christ to the rebirth of Israel represents Abraham’s birthday. There is a principle when calculating time from Adam to the resurrection of Jesus. It must be understood that all of the patriarchs’ were born on each other birthdays and they died on each other birthdays. Some may question this but I was given a sign of my correctness from God. That when there is a family that have many kids, the child that was born closest or on his father’s birthday will be in his father’s image and will look just like him, height, character, and all. I myself am an example of that out of the 12 children of my father, my birthday is closest to his than any other child in the family and I am in his exact likeness as far as looks and personality is concerned. You can check any family that has many children. 90% of the time, the son that is born closest to his father’s birthday looks more like the father than any child in the family. Since Abraham himself was born the year 1948 from Adam and Israel was rebirth May 14, 1948 that was Abraham’s birthday for the children of Israel are his biological children. The church is his spiritual children because of the quality that Abraham had which was faith and because the church should have that same faith. We are his children of faith. The church also was birthed on his birthday. The same day that Jesus was raised from the dead, which was all of the patriarchs’’ birthday, including Abraham. The church was given life on that same day, which was year AD 34 April 12 the day of his resurrection. The term resurrection is about a rebirthing of the flesh into the glory of God and to be used for his tabernacle. The word tabernacle means dwelling place. John 20:19-23, Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. And when he had so said, he shewed unto them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the LORD. Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you. And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost: Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained
.
Many people think that the church was born on Pentecost but I differ from them because the church was given life the same day that Jesus was raised from the dead. Jesus breathed on them and life is in the breath. This was on the first day of the week. On that same day, the church was given life which means birth. The day of Pentecost was the debut and the empowerment of the church. That is why the spirit came upon them as a rushing mighty wind.
When we began with Adam and his creation, he was created on a Friday or the sixth day. For in Biblical days, the days of the week had no names, only numbers. The days of the week were later given numbers by those persons who devised the Roman calendar. After the time of Christ, then days were given names. The day that Adam was created was the first day, the first month, and the first year. Time was created for man and men were the keepers of time. They kept up with time by birthdates. For instance:
BEGINNINGWITHADAM.jpgNoah is 600 years old
Noah is 600 years old when the flood came that is the year that Adam would have been 1656 years old. But Adam dies at the age of 930 years old. Now it appears that Shem is the oldest son, but he is not. Shem is the middle son who was born when Noah was 502 years old. The flood came after the year 1656 in the 2nd month and the 17th day of the month. (1657) it needs to be understood that the rain was not the only cause of the flood. The flood came because there was a shifting of the axis (the Tectonic plates) of the earth and the waters from the oceans rose up causing this great Tsunami. This was because of the breaking up of the great deep which represents the foundations of the earth. This breaking up or cracking, caused a worldwide Tsunami. Catastrophic destruction was caused upon the face of the earth. The only thing that could stand such a tidal wave was the Noah’s Ark because of the way that it was designed by God. The Ark rode the waters like a surfer on a surf board, when the wave came from the Ocean and lifted it up and carried it up upon the flood. St. Matthew 24:30, But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be
.
They were violently taken away as we saw the Tsunami at the end of 2004. At that time, the news media said that the axis of the earth shifted slightly, which caused the great damage. When we saw on the news the water carrying debris and people with it, which was a perfect picture on a smaller scale of the day that the flood came in Noah’s time.
Genesis 11:10, These are the generations of Shem: Shem was an hundred years old, and begat Arphaxad two years after the flood.
Shem was 100 years old two years after the flood when he had his son Arphaxad the year 1658. If we subtract 100 from 1658 it gives you the year 1558 and at that time Noah was 502 years old which is the year that Shem was birthed. Therefore, it make Japeth, his oldest son, who was born the 500th year of Noah’s life which was 1556. We can conclude that Ham is his youngest son which is mentioned in Genesis 9:24, And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him.
Here below we see a chart of from Shem down to Abraham being birthed the year 1948.
BIRTHCHARTOFSHEMABRAHAM.jpgThis gives us the fact that Abraham’s birthday and our time was the same year that the United Nations recognizes Israel as a nation. When they by law, could officially call themselves a nation again, this was their birthday. In the year May 14, 1948 and because of the symmetry that God works by, this lets us know that this is the date of Abraham’s birthday also. This gives us the first day for the setting of the time clock and the calendar of God.
40537.jpgHow Many Years Did Abraham
See Noah Alive
The key lies in how many years Abraham saw Noah alive. The fact those 6,000 years concluded with the death date of Noah and the year that he died from Abraham, which was 58 years from the year 1948, at 360 days per year. We are going to take two mathematical figures to verify that. Noah lived 350 years after the flood. If we add 350 plus 1656 it equals 2006. The other figure is Abraham was born 1948 and saw Noah alive for 58 years. This adds up to the year 2006. Because Abraham’s father was an idol worshipper from Joshua 24:2, And Joshua said unto all the people, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Your fathers dwelt on the other side of the flood in old time, even Terah, the father of Abraham, and the father of Nachor: and they served other gods.
Abraham himself was taught the word which gives faith, by Noah and his son Shem this is why the bible calls Abraham the father of faith, in order to have faith one must be thought the word for faith cometh be hearing and hearing by the word of God. This is how you know how to set the clock by the nation of Israel’s birth and the death of Noah. The death of Noah occurred 2006 years from Adam’s creation date. Seeing that our calendar is off, in our year 2005 July 14, a Thursday, which should have been labeled a Sunday rather than a Thursday. For if we take 6,000 years from the time of Adam to our year 2005 July 14, a Thursday, the numbers will bring you to that same day which should have been a Sunday.
The underline principle here is that all new beginnings occur on Sunday. Any time, biblically, a new beginning does not begin on Sunday on our calendar; then it is a strong clue that our days of the week and calendar are off. Let us look at some numbers to allow the numbers tell us where we should be. As previously mentioned, in the old Jewish calendar one year is 360 days. In further references from the Book of Revelations 11:3, And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth
This again shows us that in the end time, the earth will shift back to its original position. Standing on the principle that the beginning, and the ending is the same. Pay attention to what the History channel is saying concerning December 21, 2012. There is a prediction that the earth will shift on its polls. But I do know that before the time of the tribulation period happens, there will be a shifting of the axis of the earth back to its original place and year will again become 360 days per year.
The Jews people were given four thousand years (four days) from the time of Adam to the time of Christ. One day with the Lord is as a thousand years. And a thousand years is one day. 2 Peter 3:8, But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day
.
The question is how many days it will take to make 4,000 years from Adam to Christ’s resurrection day? The answer is 1,440,000 days. Let us find out how many weeks would that number of days allow. We will divide 1,440,000 by 7 is 205,714 weeks; 205,714 weeks x 7 is 1,439,998 which leaves us 2 days left. Considering that time began with Adam, on a Friday, seven full days’ ends on a Thursday, with this calculation. Now you have two days left to add back to the 1,439,998 which equals back to the number 1,440,000 days. Having 4,000 years ending on a Saturday, and Christ’s resurrection was on a Sunday, which is the first day of the new year for the beginning of the next 2,000 years for the time of the church. Make the note that this is where the Julian calendar is off one day a week because they have our year beginning on Saturday, the first year of this 2,000 years beginning on Saturday which should have been Sunday.
We cannot connect 4,000 years ending with the birth of Christ. Christ was birthed April 5th in the year A. D. 1, by our time. His lifetime was 33 ½ years. He was resurrected on April 12th in the year A.D. 34 now looking at Noah and his death year, which he was born the year 1056 from Adam and Noah lived 950 years. Adding 950 to1056 equals the year 2006 years. Noah died at the completion of 950 years which was the ending of 2006 years. The next day was New Years Day for the year of 2007and the first day.
Now looking at the children of Israel
Now looking at the children of Israel’s rebirth as a Nation occurring, again, May 14, 1948 and adding the years that Abraham saw Noah alive was 58 complete years. And I say again that this leads us to the beginning of the Sabbath day beginning exactly 58 years from the rebirth of Israel until July 14, 2005.
Let me state that Abraham did not get his teaching from his father as he should have. His father was an Idol worshiper, but he got his teaching from Noah, Shem and their sons. On the day that God spoke to Abraham and told him to get up and get out from among his kindred. Genesis 12:1 & 2, Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:
Abraham is considered the Father of Faith. He had to get the word in order to gain faith. Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God. By this we can understand that Abraham in order to gain faith had to hear a preacher and Noah was his preacher. Romans 10:14-17, How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report? So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God
.
Considering the years that Abraham saw Noah alive gives us a strong clue to the beginning of the end time. With it being the beginning of the Sabbath day where Christ begins his completion work of the church, which is his body. We must understand that the completion work begins at the beginning of the Sabbath day. Abraham represented the year 1948 for his birth and Noah represented the year 2006 again which is mid 2005 for us July 14th. Remember we stated that this was on a Thursday which should have been on a Sunday.
