The number 9 is the only number
that when it is multiplied by any other number (no matter how
large that number is)and the individual numbers of the answer
are added together until you only have a single number the result
is always 9
eg: 9 x 6000 = 54000....5 + 4 + 0 +0 + 0 = 9
9 x 50 = 450....... 4 + 5 + 0 = 9
9 x 2 =18.......... 1 + 8 = 9
Revelation states that only 144,000 of the children of Israel
will be saved.(That is 12,000 from each tribe.)
If you add the individual number of that figure together the result
is 9.
Haile Selassie was the 225th king in line from King Solomon,the son of King David. 2+2+5 = 9.
The term 'Seven Times'
as quoted in Revelations can be calculated with reference to various
verses in the bible.
Revelations 12:6:14 ; speaks of 3 and a half being 1260 days,
therefore 7 is equal to 1260 x 2 = 2520 days
Numbers 14:30 ;God's rule is a day for a year.
Ezekial 4:6 ;God's appointed each day for a year.
Therefore 2520 days means 2520 years.2+5+2+0 = 9
This means that if we find out the year when the "Reign
of Nations" started,we will know the date of the start
of the opening of the 'Seven Seals'.
