A wheel within a wheel, whirring wheels and a few grains of sand.
People have some bizarre pictures of spaceships that look like a gyroscope.
But I would consider something different, a clock is a wheel within a wheel. The minute hand spins inside the hour hand and as the minute hand moves so does the hour hand and the second hand is a whirring wheel.
Time is the "fourth" dimension. Events in human history unfurl themselves in the fourth dimension.
So when Jesus is talking to Vicki Goforth Parnell and says that we are already within a wheel in a wheel what can that mean?
My theory is that it relates to what Jesus told Philadelphia, that he would keep them from the hour of trial. If the wheel is the hour hand it represents 42 months, the first half of the tribulation before God pours out His wrath. To be within the wheel in a wheel means we are less than a minute away, or less than one sixtieth of 42 months. Prophetic months are 30 days and so that would be less than 21 days away.
Obviously this is simply an estimation. The hour of trial could refer to the 7 year period in which case to be within a wheel in the wheel would be within 42 days.
Still from the context it seems Jesus was referring to time and how close we were in time. He also describes it as a "few grains of sand". A few is often used to mean three. So this could have meant three weeks.
