The Keystone Pattern - Three Things Then the Fourth

(This post is from a page I just added to the “Beyond The Veil” collection on TheOpenScroll.com. The core content of the new page has been extracted from the blog series about numbering our days aright. It represents closure.)

For many years, I had been seeking to understand the meaning of the celestial sign of 1991. I understood well enough how that remarkable celestial event had signaled the Lord's coming in judgment. I understood how it established a certain date on the Lord's calendar as a hard reference point. I also knew that certain key events were identified to me as occurring within the context of a single week of years, a target Shemitah. What I didn't understand was when that week would come. It was obvious enough that it was established on His calendar in relation to the celestial sign, but what was the relationship, the number of years or Shemitah cycles between them? That relationship or connecting link is a kind of keystone, and it was not until 2008 that it was finally revealed to me; nearly 17 years after I learned about the anchoring celestial sign.

As many precious insights have been, it was conveyed to me as a pattern through a passage of scripture.

Here's the verse that triggered the insight in 2008. The Lord was in the upper room addressing Peter at his last supper with his disciples.

Jesus answered, “Will you lay down your life for Me? Truly, truly, I say to you, a rooster will not crow until you deny Me three times. ~ John 13:38

It was a sign for Peter, and also for the people he modeled, upon whom the end of the age has now come. Given the context in which I received the revelation insight, the message was obvious. I knew instantly that this was the insight I had sought for almost 17 years.

Peter's three denials in sequence represent the failing of the church to pass the tests in the three Shemitah that followed the sign of 1991. In the fourth Shemitah, there would be no more denying the Lord! The rooster would then crow! In the context, of which I was made astutely aware, I knew the rooster crowing represented the voice and trumpet call that triggers or announces the Lord's harvest of the dead and living in Christ.

For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. ~ 1 Thessalonians 4:17

in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. ~ 1 Corinthians 15:52

Like the rooster that heralds the dawn of a new day with crowing, the archangel will herald the ingathering of saints. When will that be? After three denials, which represent instances of accounting within their seasons. Why did I relate this to the sign of 1991 and the Shemitah that followed? It was an unavoidable conclusion.

It was April 9, 2008, which was, on the Lord's calendar, the 13th day of the first month: The watch day for the sign to the Bride. It was more than just an annual watch day because it was in the 3rd year of a Shemitah, the one year in seven that is when the revealing of the lawless one should be expected. I had been waiting seven long years for this day to come, ever since 2001 when the previous watch day brought such disappointment. My hopes were high that the sign would be witnessed, because that meant the Bride Theft would follow shortly after, on the 21st day, and the Lord would receive His beloved Bride.

The Pope (Benedict XVI, who had been born and baptized on the same day, which was the 13th day of the 1st month) had been visiting the US, making public appearances in Washington DC and NYC. He was scheduled to end his visit with a departure on that very day. I had been monitoring the news reports during his visit, with my attention focused once more on Bill Clinton's activity, just like how the Lord had directed my attention in the previous Shemitah. He was stumping for Hillary, working the campaign trail and moving east all the while. The trail looked like Bill might have been going to meet with the Pope just prior to his departure. Would there be a baptism? It was quite a tease!

Was I consumed with monitoring the news on the watch day? Not at all! I was quite notably insulated, intensely focused on a very engaging study of John 13. While that undertaking hadn't been very high on my list of pending projects, the Lord prompted me to occupy myself with that, and so I did. I used the Chiasmatron 2000 tool I built to help analyze the thematic structure, and the Lord prospered the effort to such a degree that I completed it satisfactorily in a single day. (John 13 - An interactive presentation of its thematic structure ) That was remarkable productivity. It was perhaps in the twilight hour that I came to give my attention to the close of the chapter. I had scanned the news and there was no report about Bill being baptized by the Pope, and no sense of such a thing from the spirit of God. As I came to verse 38, the Lord broke the news about why not.

Jesus answered, “Will you lay down your life for Me? Truly, truly, I say to you, a rooster will not crow until you deny Me three times. ~ John 13:38

It was heavy. I had been hopeful, but it had long been weighing on me that I had never yet received revelation insight about which Shemitah would be the one appointed for fulfillment, and I had a sense that we just weren't ready to welcome the Bridegroom. With the revelation of the piece of the puzzle I had been missing, it would seem to be cause for rejoicing, but it was completely overshadowed, tempered by the sobering awareness that there would be 7 more years to the finish, and those, frought with trials. I knew the trials were necessary, that this season was a witness to the Lord's mercy and grace because we needed it to be made ready. Yet, we would be ready!

After a while, various kinds of confirmation began to come from secondary witnesses. I found evidence that the Adversary knew what time it was. He knew about the celestial sign, and the patttern of Peter's denials, and he was blabbing all over the public media about it in the language of Occult symbolism. The keystone pattern is embedded in the scriptures, and these begain to bear witness to me. Eventually, Aaron Herman gave it his attention and he began to root these out.

We've discovered quite an impressive collection of these prophetic passages that proclaim the keystone pattern! These speak so loudly to us!

Luke 8 - The Parable of the Soils

The first example comes from the gospels, a parable that has had a very instrumental role for me. It's called the parable of the sower and the seed but is perhaps better called the parable of the soils. The version from Luke 8 is featured in the study titled, Keys to Developing a Hearing Ear - Part I: The Key Parable. It really is a key parable!

5 “The sower went out to sow his seed; and as he sowed, some fell beside the road, and it was trampled under foot and the birds of the air ate it up. 6 Other seed fell on rocky soil, and as soon as it grew up, it withered away, because it had no moisture. 7 Other seed fell among the thorns; and the thorns grew up with it and choked it out. 8 Other seed fell into the good soil, and grew up, and produced a crop a hundred times as great.” ~ Luke 8:5-8

Three situations are described where the seed was sown but no crop resulted. With the fourth came a great crop!

Another level of insight is provided as versions of this parable appear in Matthew 13, Mark 4 and Luke 8, but not in the fourth Gospel of John, which seems to imply that this lesson is no longer necessary in the fourth season because it has been learned.

  1. You said that the fourth shemitah time period (2012-2019) Jesus would make himself known.

    In 2014, a documentary film titled Holy Spirit, showed healings, and other miraculous events.

    I'm starting to think you were correct.
