The year of the crucifixion is extremely important to know. It reveals the year of Jesus' return, because exactly 2000 years after his crucifixion, he will return. Since Jesus was crucified in 30 CE, he will return in 2030.

Bible reports:
  • that Jesus was born before Herod died (Matt 2:20)
  • that Jesus began his ministry at the age of 30, when he was baptized in the 15th year of Tiberius' reign (Lk 3:1, 21-23)
  • that Jesus celebrated the first Passover of his ministry when the Herodian Temple was under construction for 46 years (Jhn 2:18-23)
  • that Jesus celebrated a total of 3 or 4 Passovers during his ministry (Dan 9:27; Jhn 2:13, 5:1, 6:4, 11:55)
  • that Jesus was crucified under Pontius Pilate, the governor of Judea (Matt 27:2)
  • that Jesus was crucified on Friday, Nisan 14 (Mk 15:42; Jhn 19:14)
  • that Jesus was crucified a full 40 years before the destruction of Jerusalem (Jon 3:4; Eusebius' Church History 3.7.9; Yoma 39b:5)
History reports:
  • that Herod died in March 4 BCE, which means that Jesus was born before March 4 BCE
  • that Tiberius' 15th year of reign was from 26 to 27 CE or from 27 to 28 CE (his co-princeps began in 12 or 13 CE), which means that Jesus was baptized sometime between 26 and 28 CE
  • that the Herodian Temple was under construction for 46 years in 27 or 28 CE (it began in 20 or 19 BCE), which means that Jesus celebrated the first Passover of his ministry in 27 or 28 CE
  • that Pontius Pilate was governor of Judea from 26 to 36 CE, which means that Jesus was crucified sometime between 26 and 36 CE
  • that between 28 and 33 CE, Nisan 14 fell on Friday only in 30 and 33 CE, which means that Jesus was crucified in 30 or 33 CE
  • that the siege of Jerusalem started on Nisan 14, 70 CE, and ended with the destruction of Jerusalem in Tammuz/Av of the same year, which means that Jesus was crucified in 30 CE
Conclusions:
  • since Jesus was crucified a full 40 years before the destruction of Jerusalem (30 CE) on Friday, Nisan 14 (30 or 33 CE), he was crucified on Nisan 14, 30 CE
  • since Jesus was crucified on Nisan 14, 30 CE, and his ministry encompassed a total of 4 Passovers, he celebrated his first Passover in 27 CE, which means he was baptized in late 26 CE
  • since Jesus was baptized in late 26 CE at the age of 30, and Herod died in March 4 BCE, he was born in March 5 BCE
Side note: Most modern scholars agree that Jesus was born sometime between 6 and 4 BCE (Chronology of Jesus - Wikipedia) and crucified in 30 CE (Josef Blinzler's survey).

How long would you say the ministry of Jesus was? (from beginning of ministry until crucifixion)

If Jesus returns in 2030, certain things have to happen first, right? I think the great falling away is already underway, but doesn't the antichrist have to be revealed before Jesus comes back?

The European Union has its elections in 2029 so maybe the antichrist emerges from that.

Just another guess -----🥱-----this blows your theory out of the water -----

Matthew 24:36 states that no one knows the exact day or hour of Jesus's return—not the angels nor the Son—except for the Father alone.
.

You know what Matters is

Jesus Was BORN and Was Here to Preach the Good News and then was Crucified Buried and RESURRECTED ---that is what is so very important to get so you can RECEIVE HIM and Have ETERNAL LIFE ----so when He does come back you will be with Him -----

Maybe you should read this -----and do some study on it

AI Overview

Based on Romans 11:25, many theologians believe the Church Age—a period of grace for Gentile salvation—ends
when the "fullness of the Gentiles" is reached, or the final Gentile ordained to be saved comes to faith. This marks the end of the church age, leading to the rapture and a return of God's focus to Israel.
Key Aspects of This View:

The Fullness of the Gentiles (Romans 11:25):
This phrase refers to the complete number of Gentiles intended to be saved during this era.

A "Mystery" Revealed: Paul describes this period as a time when a "partial hardening" has happened to Israel until this complete number is achieved.

End of the Age vs. Times of the Gentiles: While the Church Age ends with the saving of the last Gentile (rapture), the Times of the Gentiles (political domination of Jerusalem) continues until the second coming.

Transition to Tribulation:
Once the "fullness" of the Gentiles is brought in, God turns His attention back to Israel for the final seven-year period, often known as the Tribulation or Daniel’s 70th week.

This doctrine highlights that the church age is not indefinite and will conclude when God’s purpose for Gentile inclusion is finalized.
 
End of the Age vs. Times of the Gentiles: While the Church Age ends with the saving of the last Gentile (rapture), the Times of the Gentiles (political domination of Jerusalem) continues until the second coming.

This is the dispensational view. The non-dispensational view is that when the times of the gentiles ends, the mystery of God , ie, the temple of God and body of Christ, will be complete at which point the 7th trumpet will blow and Christ will return with the resurrected Israel.

This is not true that Jesus will return in 2030.

The antichrist has not started to work in the world yet.

And when he starts working in the world 7 years later is the resurrection.

And then the wrath of God is poured upon the heathen leading up to Jesus coming back with the saints and defeating them.

And then He will rule for 1000 years over the people He spared.

God is giving the world 7 years to have their way to go against the truth and when they follow the antichrist then He will end sin on earth.

For the first 3.5 years salvation is still available to the world so the wrath of God is not there.

The seals and trumpets is not the wrath of God.

Since God is giving the world 7 years to have their way to go against the truth the saints will remain on earth for that time.

Rev 13:5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.

The beast has power to rule for 3.5 years which he would not have that power unless God allowed him to have it so the wrath of God is not there.

2Th 2:1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,
2Th 2:2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.
2Th 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
2Th 2:4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

The saints will not be gathered unto Christ until the man of sin claims to be God which happens in the middle of the 7 years.

Rev 13:7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.

Dan 7:25 And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.

Dan 12:7 And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.

1Co 15:23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
1Co 15:24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.

Then the antichrist makes war against the saints and overcomes them.

And they are given in to his hands for 3.5 years.

And when he shall accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people all these things shall be finished.

Then comes the end when Jesus shall have delivered up the kingdom to God and then He will defeat the world.

The resurrection does not happen until the end of the 7 years.

Act 1:6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
Act 1:7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.

Rom 11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
Rom 11:26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
Rom 11:27 For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.

The kingdom will be restored to Israel when salvation is no longer available to the Gentiles when they take the mark of the beast.

Rev 16:1 And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.

Rev 16:12 And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.
Rev 16:13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.
Rev 16:14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.
Rev 16:15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.
Rev 16:16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.

Zec 14:1 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.
Zec 14:2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
Zec 14:3 Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
Zec 14:5 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah:

and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.

Act 1:6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
Act 1:7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.

Rom 11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
Rom 11:26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
Rom 11:27 For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.

After the 7 years is over then the wrath of God is poured upon the heathen leading up to the battle of Armageddon.

Which Jesus will come back with the saints and defeat the world and save Israel.

Zec 14:9 And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one.

Isa 11:9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.

Zec 14:16 And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles.

Jesus will rule over the heathen that He spared for 1000 years.

So Jesus will not return in 2030 when the 7 years period has not started yet and the resurrection happens at the end of that time.

Rev 20:5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
Rev 20:6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

There is only 2 resurrections 1 of the saints and 1 of the dead.

There is no pre-7 years resurrection and then one at the end of the 7 years.

2Ti 2:16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
2Ti 2:17 And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;
2Ti 2:18 Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.

1Ti 4:1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
1Ti 4:2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron.

2Ti 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
2Ti 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
2Ti 4:4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

When people make dates and it does not happen it causes people to not want to embrace Christianity.

And if they say pre-7 years resurrection and it does not happen it will overthrow the faith of some people and they will follow the new age christianity and their occult and evolution interpretation of the Bible and religions.

The say pre-trib resurrection but the tribulation is for the saints because God is allowing them 7 years to go against the truth so He can end sin on earth.

I have studied time in the scriptures for 40 years and agree his return is in 2000 years for the righteous. from the weekend the Lord was crucified.

Lord's plan for man was for 7000 years, exactly 4000 years to when the Lord was crucified, another 2000 to meet the Lord, and 1000 for the Millenium.

2 But for you who fear my name the sun of righteousness shall rise, with healing in its wings. You shall go forth leaping like calves from the stall. Malachi 4

The reason for the Lord to use ( sun ) instead of ( son ) was for definite purpose ,a parable.. As in creation the ( sun ) was made on the 4th day meaning the Lord was crucified at the end of 4000 years.

Calves are those who were joyfully resurrected on the Feast of First Fruits ( Easter ).
 
Jesus said " I come at a time you think not ....it will be sudden and quick so just be ready please.
