Will Jesus Christ return to Earth in the year 2015?
And can studying NASA's website provide evidence for such a scenario?
A minister who promotes the Old Testament roots of Christianity suggests a rare string of lunar and solar eclipses said to fall on God's annual holy days seven years from now could herald what's come to be known as the "Second Coming" of Jesus.
"God wants us to look at the biblical calendar," says Mark Biltz, pastor of El Shaddai Ministries in Bonney Lake, Wash. "The reason we need to be watching is [because] He will signal His appearance. But we have to know what to be watching as well. So we need to be watching the biblical holidays."

“If Hillary wins in 2012,the world will end before she can be inaugurated.”
I would take some small measure of comfort from that!
No doubt Mercury will be in retrograde at that time.
Oh, and what is the difference between a blood moon and a
Harvest moon?
The Harvest moon shines on, the Blood moon bleeds on.
bump for later read
Harvest Moon was the Neil Young album that really, really sucked.
NAsbU Luke 8:8 "Other seed fell into the good soil, and grewb'SHEM Yah'shua
up, and produced a crop a hundred times as great." As He said these
things, He would call out, "He who has ears to hear, let him hear."
You won’t know. Woe!
You have taken this verse out of context:
shalom b'SHEM Yah'shua HaMashiach Adonai
NAsbU Matthew 24:36 "But of that day and hour no one knows,
Did Noah know the Flood was coming ?
not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone
NAsbU Matthew 24:37 "For the coming of the Son of Man
will be just like the days of Noah.
Scientists try to explain things like the Star of Bethlehem as a conjunction of planets and now lunar/solar eclipses are used to explain the 2nd coming. God could use these events but He also could decide to use a one time miraculous event that is something that is not predicted. But it is interesting that many Biblical events do seem to coincide with events that can be explained, that science in many cases appears to confirm much of what the Bible says.
Here is the correct context:
Mark 13:32-35
32 But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.
33 Take heed, watch and pray; for you do not know when the time is.
34 It is like a man going to a far country, who left his house and gave authority to his servants, and to each his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to watch.
35 Watch therefore, for you do not know when the master of the house is coming—in the evening, at midnight, at the crowing of the rooster, or in the morning— lest, coming suddenly, he find you sleeping.
As I recall, “Harvest Moon” is the first full moon after the autumnal equinox — the time at which you would harvest your crops.
The “blood moon” is the moon with the reddish tinge — due to the shadow of the earth.
You could have both, I suppose — maybe for the southern hemisphere one of these blood moons could be a Harvest Moon.
Mark 13:shalom b'SHEM Yah'shua HaMashiach Adonai24 "But in those days, after that tribulation, THE SUN WILL BE DARKENED
AND THE MOON WILL NOT GIVE ITS LIGHT,
25 AND THE STARS WILL BE FALLING from heaven, and the powers that
are in the heavens will be shaken.
26 "Then they will see THE SON OF MAN COMING IN CLOUDS with great
power and glory.
27 "And then He will send forth the angels, and will gather together His elect
from the four winds, from the farthest end of the earth to the farthest
end of heaven.
28 "Now learn the parable from the fig tree: when its branch has already
become tender and puts forth its leaves, you know that summer is near.
29 "Even so, you too, when you see these things happening, recognize
that He is near, right at the door.
30 "Truly I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all
these things take place.
31 "Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away.
32 "But of that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven,
nor the Son, but the Father alone.
33 "Take heed, keep on the alert; for you do not know when the appointed
time will come.
34 "It is like a man away on a journey, who upon leaving his house and
putting his slaves in charge, assigning to each one his task, also commanded
the doorkeeper to stay on the alert.
35 "Therefore, be on the alert-- for you do not know when the master
of the house is coming, whether in the evening, at midnight, or when the
rooster crows, or in the morning--
36 in case he should come suddenly and find you asleep.
37 "What I say to you I say to all, 'Be on the alert!'"
We are instructed always to be on the alert, since none can know the hour.
Relying on future eclipse dates to tell us the 'hour' seems to be in direct violation of these instructions.

The eclipses occur on Holy Feast days of YHvH. The significance of the first four Feast Days which were re-celebrated by Yah'shua (Jesus). Pesach when Yah'shua offered Himself as our Passover Lamb to cover our sins. The Day of Unleavened Bread when all sin was removed. The Feast of First Fruits when He rose from the dead. The Feast of Shavuot (Pentecost) when the Ru'ach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) The next Holy Feast Day of YHvH is the day for which you know not the day nor hour:If you think these are just eclipses, then you are not familiar with Feast Days of YHvH.
shalom b'SHEM Yah'shua HaMashiach Adonai
came and filled the followers of the Christ.
The Feast of Trumpets. It begins when three stars are sighted in Jerusalem.
As Jesus said “Nobody knows the date or hour of my return except the Father” ... so quick, everybody look busy ......
It is amazing the silliness you get when every wild interpretation of Holy Scripture is considered ok.
Yup, we need an Infallible Magisterium(R) to give us the one true wild interpretation.
Ping for later
Thats impossible. The moon turning to blood in fulfillment of end time prophecy has already happened.
It was on May 19, 1780.
Or so I was taught when I was being raised as a Seventh Day Adventist..........................................

Then one night I saw another blood red moon during a lunar eclipse and well. It was all downhill from there.............
Stoat I’m sure you can clear all this up for the Marshall.
To reiterate my previous post:
We are instructed always to be on the alert, since none can know the hour.
Relying on future eclipse dates to tell us the ‘hour’ seems to be in direct violation of these instructions.
With that said, I think we’re going to have to agree to disagree on this one, FRiend :)
May God bless you.
