It is interesting to note that some biblical authorities and scholars have over the years have made some assertive claims about biblical predictions which occur or reoccur in a certain frame of time and then manifest as a conclusion to the prediction of prophecy or even reoccur again as a continuation of something that happened long ago.
Now, there seems to be a few here that can be examined from the Biblical prophetic viewpoint, and one I would like to focus on here is about the coming of the Son of God. There does seems to be more of this one, but as I reckon in the order of importance, the prophecies and time frames and lines according to Jesus' birth, time on the cross at Calvary and subsequent death, burial, and resurrection, are some of the more major human event occurrences in Scripture.

But however as all of us must go by faith and studying to show ourselves approved by the Spirit according to these matters, then let us move on from there and examine, if you will, concerning the prophetic statement that pertains to the signs of the second coming of the Son of Man (or Messiah or Jesus Christ).

"But in those days, after that tribulation (or seven years of oppression and dread upon the earth):

The sun will be darkened, and the moon will not shed its light;
the stars will be falling from the sky, and the celestial powers
will be shaken. Then they will see the Son of man coming in
clouds of great power and glory. He will send out His angels
and gather His elect from the four winds, from one end of the
earth to the end of the sky."

The Gospel of Saint Mark; 13: 24-27
The Coming of the Son of Man


"Now concerning that day or hour no one knows-----neither the angels in heaven or the Son (or the Son or Jesus at that time of His earthly ministry in the flesh)-----except then Father.
Watch!
Be alert (or be alert and pray)!
For you don't know when the time is coming."

The Gospel of Saint Mark 13: 32-33
No One Knows the Day or Hour
(end Biblical statements)

So, the Bible informs us concerning certain matters about the exact timing of events to take place (or day and hour accuracy), will not be available to us as I am sure that there are genuine and outstanding reasons why God through His Spirit doesn't put these things on every Christian's heart and mind to know.

However, can we rightfully judge and know certain future events which are listed in the prophetic Scriptures to take place within a set time frame according to specific years in a format of succession to the events; or even narrowing these biblical events to occurring within a certain calendar year, or even a calendar month?
