As with all understanding of Scriptural events, these activities have come to be known gradually, adding and testing piece by piece, until it has now become possible to express the result in CHART form. It has been increasingly understood over a period of perhaps thirty years and is based upon much background study and understanding which cannot be illustrated.

The notes which follow attempt to show the stages by which understanding was gained. Some of these points have been better explained by other students of The Word of God, these therefore will be referred.

There is no better place to start than at the beginning, but where is the beginning? The more we consider our relationship with God, the more difficult the answer to this question becomes. So we have decided to accept this first point at the event that most Christians would accept.

1. God expresses Himself in our lives through our trust and belief in the activities of The Lord Jesus Christ, particularly that concerning His sacrificial act and His resurrection. If this is misapplied, then God's Spirit, or intelligence, is not present and He tells us by His Word that 'If any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His'. This regenerative act is described in a multitude of writings, but is best received in that which was written by God Himself for the purpose....The Gospel written by The Apostle John.

2. After gaining this intelligence, a deep and personal relationship is formed with the Expression of God. This lays on our hearts responsibilities which are manifested in many ways. In this study we are concerned with that which impels a believer, through the love of His Lord, to understand what God has said regarding our present and future relationship with Him.

3. Many Christians to-day whose foundation of belief is True and Right, accept a rather casual and elementary understanding of the New Testament, by not discerning the important change in God's activities when the Jews, as a nation, ceased to be the source of His Salvation. After this change, the Apostle Peter himself said that some of the writings of Paul are 'hard to be understood',  but by this confession he recognised their authority. It is in these writings that we find the revelation concerning this present period which God calls 'The Administration of His Grace' [Ephesians 3:2. Colossians 1:25]. This is the period in which the Nations are now the source of God's Salvation. 

This change is described in Paul's letters which were written some years after the time of the closure of Luke's record of the Acts of the Apostles. This initiated the present Administration. However, Scripture tells us that at a future point of time, Salvation will return to be 'of the Jews'. Thus we can illustrate the elementary beginnings of our CHART:

4. Following this realisation we became impressed with the importance of all the activities surrounding the change in 62ad, when God's dealings with mankind took a dramatic turn. This change covers the period during and immediately following, the Apostle Paul's statement before the Jews at Rome recorded in the 28th chapter of the Acts. It extends to the time when Israel's occupying power, the Empire of Rome, was provoked to destroy Jerusalem and The Temple in 69/70ad. Thus we have a period of seven to eight years in which a number of the New Testament epistles were written in the knowledge of the Spiritual blinding and deafening of the Jews. In these years and after, the Jews are no longer the centre of God's attention. All nations now benefit from an Administration of God's Grace alone. At present, God is no longer concerned with His Kingdom in Israel.

There follows a list of these eight letters, seven of which were written by Paul, with one by Peter:

5. During the first seven years of this period, there were many Jewish and a very small number of Gentile believers whose who found that The Kingdom of God in Israel, to which they belonged was no longer imminent. A few years earlier the Apostle John had written to all of the diaspora stating:  Little children, it is the last hour: and as you have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know it is the last hour.[1John 2:18]  There had been great expectancy of The Christ's imminent act of restoring His authority in Israel.  All the Jewish Christians together with the few Gentile Christians at that time, needed help and reassurance, even as those believers to-day who continue to hold to the doctrine of the Acts period. The letter to Titus with the first letter to Timothy were written to instruct them in their need to do this. Elders and Deacons were to be chosen with human care and assessment, no longer would God choose them by lot as He did during the build up of The Kingdom in Israel. 

Peter writes to encourage the Saints and warn them of what is to come. Many evils will appear, their origin and purpose are described. The Last Days are referred to as a future event, no longer were The Last Days present as they had been during the Acts Period. However, Peter's concern for Israel's welfare impels him to describe the activity in those future days.

Paul's Second letter to Timothy was written to encourage him in his faith, telling him that he had need of his help and his presence. He explains to Timothy, his mind at the completion of his course, i.e. the end during those seven years of his first commission which God had initiated when He met him on the Damascus Road. He has much to consider concerning the new relationship between God and those that love Him. It is essential therefore that he receives the parchments, but particularly the copies of the Scriptures.

Later, Paul wrote, with Timothy, to the loving and supportive Philippian church after the termination of his first commission, explaining his mind and need for a new relationship with Christ Himself, rather than that which he had inherited as an Israelite. He had a choice to make between being 'loosed back' [gk: analuO]to be with Christ or to stay for the benefit of his friends, particularly those at Philippi. As we know, he chose the latter.

After Timothy arrived, and because of Paul's decision to stay, in his effort to understand what God required of him, he received from God the revelation of this present Administration. Afterwards, this required a new commission, causing him and Timothy to write to newly converted Christians whom he had not met, in Asia,  Ephesus and Colosse. These Christians had recently received the newly published Gospel of John, written for us all to believe that Jesus is The Christ, The Son of God; and that believing we might have life through His Name. He informed them of his revelation concerning this previously secret Administration of God's Grace, hidden even from the Spiritual hierarchy, telling them its meaning and their responsibilities. The personal letter to Philemon, written and dispatched at the same time as that to Colosse, illustrates Paul's deep concern for his friends in that place, showing in lesson form our need to give Paul, our apostle, our full attention.

Knowing these facts enables us to form the correct sequence in which these letters were written during the period at the commencement of this present Administration. The importance of this will become apparent as we proceed:

6. Next, we were introduced to a very important fact, one which came to influence the whole layout of future events. We recognised that the events described by Gabriel's prophetic statement to Daniel concerning the 70weeks of years, was initiated by Christ when He was given the Isaiah Scripture in his home synagogue in Nazareth.  Six conditions were to be fulfilled during the coming seventy weeks [490yrs.]. That year in 27ad was a Jubilee, and, as we now know, the 70weeks were cut short in 62ad when this present, new Administration of God's Grace began. Gabriel's prophetic statement specifically concerns the House of Judah, i.e. The Nation of The Jews, because Daniel was a prophet to the House of Judah. Daniel tells them that the 70weeks are determined: [1] upon thy people and [2] upon thy Holy City. 

In 62ad The Jews were Spiritually blinded and deafened, being left without Spiritual understanding, as they continue to be to-day. A few years later they were scattered throughout the world when both Jerusalem and the Temple were destroyed in 69/70ad. Because of this the introduction of the Kingdom of God amongst The Jews, was postponed.  The established ekklEsias of the Jews were instructed concerning this change but chose not to accept the details of Paul's new commission as he reported: 'those in Asia have forsaken me'. They had not forsaken the Gospel, only the revelation of Paul's new God given commission. Following this, the new order of God's Grace amongst the Nations, grew in strength. This has become known as the Transition period. This action takes place in one 'shemittah', that is a Jewish time period of 7years. Seven such periods make up the time between one Jubilee and the next. The Jubilee occurring in the first year of the next Shemittah. The span of time of the six Shemittahs between Christ's Nazareth proclamation and the Temple destruction can be shown as follows:

8. At this point another fact became clear. The period of The Last Days will end at the same time as the 70weeks of Gabriel's statement, i.e.  at the Second Coming, or parousia of The Christ. All references to the Last Days made during the period from the 30th Jubilee in 27ad to 62ad, are in the present tense, i.e. those Christian Jews living at that time recognised that the Last Days were present. References in epistles written after that time, are looking forward in the future tense. See below: 

e.  2001ad marked the rise of the evil organisation of Zionism. The true Jews, i.e. the House of Judah however, are beginning to recognise that this organisation is false, not having the true aspirations of Judaism as expressed in the Torah. It is known that the leaders of this movement are not even Jews, but members of the House of Esau, i.e. the princes of Edom. This generation of Esau has flowed down through the ages always seeking to control the affairs of Israel, in a persistent attempt to regain the blessing that Esau forfeited.

f.  The Spiritual blinding and deafening of the Jews will be rescinded by God in 2022ad, i.e. 40 Jubilees[1960yrs] after the act took place, the 2nd coming of The Christ will take place exactly 50Jubilees[2450yrs] after Christ's proclamation in the Nazareth synagogue at the time of the 30th Jubilee. This completes the period of the 70weeks of years[490yrs] prophesied by Gabriel to Daniel.

g. The Last Days period began at the birth of The Christ, His first parousia.[see this page] They will end at His second parousia when He is present to establish his rule over all mankind. There are 19 references throughout Scripture which tell of the conditions in The Last Days. It is now plain that these actions are coincident with the 70weeks of Gabriel's prophesy [see this page]. Some of the events which will occur during this period are listed on the diagrams. 

h. The hope of Christians to-day is the manifestation of the glory of The Christ, when they also will be manifest in His glory, when all men will be given to know and to recognise that The Lord Jesus Christ is God manifest in the flesh: 

14.  Here then is the full CHART, illustrating all the points made above. It spans the period known as The 70 weeks of Years,  that period which Gabriel told Daniel would last until the Second Coming of The Lord Jesus Christ, His personal presence in power. It began in 27ad when Christ announced His commission by quoting from the Scroll of Isaiah in His home town synagogue at the 30th Jubilee. It will have lasted for 490 years, but was halted in 62ad, after only five weeks[35 years] to introduce this present Administration of God's Grace 1960 years[40 Jubilees]. The Jubilee periods, each lasting 49 years, have continued despite the Spiritual blindness of the Jews, such that the 30th has become the 70th which passed by in 1987ad.

We would expect the remaining two weeks[14 years] of the first 7 weeks[49 years] to introduce the full conditions of the Kingdom in Israel, thus answering the disciples question Lord, wilt thou at this time restore the Kingdom to Israel? Christ could not answer them directly because of this hidden, impending Administration of His Grace, so He explained to them: It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which The Father has put in His own power. These were the eleven disciples to whom He spoke directly. We of this Administration, have the authority of His Word which by study reveals the time of restoration.

The re-ntroduction of the flow of the remaining Last Days, re-commencing in 2022ad, 1960 years after their closure in 62ad, will lead in 14 years to the 71st Jubilee [This would have been the 31st Jubilee had God not deprived the Jews of their Spiritual understanding and had not revealed and introduced this present Administration of His Grace]. At the time of the 71st Jubilee the command will go forth to restore and build Jerusalem, as stated by Daniel. See here.
