THE NUMBER
It is now 40 years exactly, since the Endtime prophetic Mo letters began in earnest in 1972. Written by Peter Brave-Heart, May 2012. activatedscotland@yahoo.com
According to the Bible, the number 40 seems to be a very significant number when it comes to Judgments and probation, & warnings!
Examples:1) It rained 40 days and 40 nights at the time of Noah’s flood. 2) Jesus prophesied in 30 AD that the temple in Jerusalem would be destroyed, and that Great Wrath would fall upon Israel, for their rejection and crucifixion of Christ. Fulfilled in 70 AD,EXACTLY, 40 years later. 3) Before starting His ministry on earth, Jesus fasted 40 days and nights. 4) The prophet Jonah warned the city of its impending doom in 40 days. 5) The book of Exodus which contains the 10 plagues on Pharaoh in Egypt and its resultant destruction has 40 chapters. 6) 40 years exactly from when Jeremiah prophesied the destruction of Jerusalem in 629 BC until its fulfilment in the 11th year of Zedekiah in 589 BC 7) APPROX 40 years from when Isaiah prophesied around +or- 760 BC the invasion of Israel(Samaria) by Assyria until it was fulfilled around +or - 720 BC 8) (In Biblical numerology the number 3 is the number of the Trinity, 4 the number of Creation; such as the 4 Beasts around God’s throne. All the physical world is governed largely by the number 4= =Volume x Time. 7= God’s number=Trinity + Creation., As in the book of Revelations: 7 Seals, 7 angels with 7 Trib trumpets, 7 Angels with 7 vials of the Wrath of God. The Book of Revelation itself basically 3x7 chapters where in fact the 22 chapter is plainly a continuation of chapter 21 and the book is divided into three sections, chapter 1-7,8-14, 15-22.) 10 is the number of completion of the set of numerals, and creates the digital set of numbers. We also find the Ten commandments, or a meaning a complete set or representing Completion. So the number 40 = Creation x Completion or the law being completed. Noah was also building the Ark for 120 years = 40 x3. 12 also often used in the Bible = 3x4 = Trinity x Creation. 24 Elders in the book of Revelations=12x2, 12 Tribes, 12 Apostles names written in the 12 crystal layers of the Wall of the Heavenly city, 12 Angels at the 12 Gates of the Heavenly City.
Then you have 12x12= 144 such as the 144,000 with Jesus on the mount Zion in Revelations chapter 14. Etc etc. These are just a few examples of Biblical Numerology. The bible is in fact very mathematical. Many important bible chapters have been linked together or made very easy to remember, such as Matthew 24 & Isaiah 24 both about the Endtime , or 2Thess 2., 2Tim 2., Rev 13.13, proverbs 14.14 etc All the above I believe God has done, to prove how miraculous the bible actually is, and how incredible is His creation. “Repetition in God’s Word is the law of Memory” Recently I was reading an article on Joseph Candel’s site http://endtimeinfo.com See the podcasts “re-education” camps from May 2012,about the concentration camps, which are currently being built in the U.S.A ,to be prepared for the military, to deal with demonstrators, riots and anti-government behaviour in the future, and it got me to re-reading the Letter “the School”. I noticed that the Mo letter “The School” was written in May 1972, and that it is now exactly 40 years ago. I then observed that many of the original dreams, visions, revelations of Judgement to come, by Dad in the Mo letters, started to be received by Dad in Jan 1972, followed by others in 1973, 1974 and in 1975 and 76 & up to 1980 This got me to thinking about whether or not the fact that exactly 40 years has past could be like the 40 years from when Jesus prophesied the destruction of the Jewish temple in 30 AD to it’s fulfilment in 70 AD, exactly 40 years later, and that these Mo letters will now start to be fully fulfilled. We all believe that David Brandt Berg (Mo) was a true prophet of God, and I am amazed in re-reading the Red Mo volume, curiously mentioned again and again in the series of Heaven’s Library books such as “Alice and the cards” etc, where Alice constantly carries the Red Mo volume wherever she goes. Why was the red MO volume constantly mentioned in the “HL series of “Alice”? Well Alice and the Magic Garden were written in 1972! This was also a prophetic dream involving the endtime. It would seem that Time itself has run out, and all that Dad said would happen is right on the threshold of
fulfilment. Such letters as: The Great Escape, The Emergency, Special Police Powers, Flee as a bird, Mene Mene, Dreams of Jeremiah 40, The School, Vanity Fair, Survival, etc, started in Jan 1972 and other warning letters continued mostly through 1973, and some in 1974, and 1975, even until 1980. Other important letters such as “The Green Paper Pig, The Money Explodes, The Crash, Doom, Death to the Cities, American Holocaust, Bomb dreams, Flee the city, More US nightmares, Last American nightmare. (More and more curiously, I just thought to count the number of Mo letters that could be considered prophetic as in regards to the Endtime. This is what I discovered: between the Family’s beginning in 1968 and the beginning of 1972, (4 years) there were only 4 Mo letters of this type: Between 1972 until the end of 1975 (another 4 years) there were around another 40 Mo letters on this specific subject. From 19761980 there were also around 40 Mo letters about this. Just a coincidence I suppose, but anyway I thought it interesting, that the number 40 showed up again!) IT reminds of “40 days and Ninevah shall be destroyed”, except perhaps in this case 40 years? When there has already been such an emphasis on the year 2012 as being a year of completion of time for many religions such as the Mayans and Azteks, the Red Indians, Chinese, Indian and many other cultures predicting the return of their pagan gods in late 2012. I thought it interesting that it just happens to be exactly 40 years since such incredible prophecies and visions and warnings from God’s Endtime prophet David Berg , and that perhaps they are now around the time for Completion . The TFI has now existed for exactly 44 years, which in itself is also a very significant number as 44=4x11 After writing the above, I found the following very informative website:- from BibleStudy.org The meaning of the Number 11 If ten marks the perfection of Divine order, then the number eleven is an addition to it, subversive of and undoing that order. If twelve
is the number which marks the perfection of Divine government, then eleven falls short of it. So that whether we regard it as being 10 + 1, or 12 - 1, it is the number which marks, disorder, disorganization, imperfection, and disintegration.
The meaning of the Number 4 Now 4 is made up of three and one (3+1=4), and it denotes His creative works. He is known by the things that are seen. Hence the written revelation commences with the words, "In the beginning God CREATED." Creation is therefore the next thing - the fourth thing, and the number four always has reference to all that is created. It is emphatically the number of Creation; of man in his relation to the world as created; while six is the number of man in his opposition to and independence of God. It is the number of things that have a beginning, of things that are made, of material things, and matter itself. It is the number of material completeness. Hence it is the world number, and especially the "city" number. The fourth day saw the material creation finished (for on the fifth and sixth days it was only the furnishing and peopling of the earth with living creatures). The sun, moon, and stars completed the work, and they were to give light upon the earth which had been created, and to rule over the day and over the night (Genesis 1:14-19).
Four is the number of the great elements: earth, air, fire, and water. Four are the regions of the earth: north, south, east, and west. Four are the divisions of the day: morning, noon, evening, and midnight. Four are the seasons of the year - spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Four are the great variations of the lunar phases. The Meaning of Numbers: The Number 10 It has been already pointed out that ten is one of the perfect numbers, and signifies the perfection of Divine order, commencing, as it does, an altogether new series of numbers. The first decade is the representative of the whole numeral system, and originates the system of calculation called "decimals," because the

whole system of numeration consists of so many tens, of which the first is a type of the whole. Completeness of order, marking the entire round of anything, is, therefore, the ever-present signification of the number ten. It implies that nothing is wanting; that the number and order are perfect; that the whole cycle is complete.

The Meaning of Numbers: The Number 40 The number forty has long been universally recognized as an important number, both on account of the frequency of its occurrence, and the uniformity of its association with a period of probation, trial, and chastisement - (not judgment, like the number 9, which stands in connection with the punishment of enemies, but the chastisement of sons, and of a covenant people). The number 40 is the product of 5 and 8, and points to the action of grace (5), leading to and ending in revival and renewal (8). This is certainly the case where Forty relates to a period of evident probation. But where it relates to enlarged dominion, or to renewed or extended rule, then it does so in virtue of its factors 4 and 10, and in harmony with their signification. There are 15 such periods which appear on the surface of the Scriptures, and which may be thus classified: Forty Years of Probation by Trial 

Israel in the wilderness, Deuteronomy 8:2-5; Psalm 95:10; Acts 13:18 (the third 40 years of Moses' life, who lived to be 120 years old). Israel from the crucifixion to the destruction of Jerusalem.

What are the 8 significant 40 day periods in the Bible? There are eight of such great periods on the surface of the Bible: 1. Forty days Moses was in the mount and received the law of God, Exodus 24:18 2. Forty days Moses was in the mount after the sin of the Golden Calf, Deuteronomy 9:18,25. 3. Forty days of the spies, issuing in the penal sentence of the 40 years, Numbers 13:26, 14:34. 4. Forty days of Elijah in Horeb, 1Kings 19:8. 5. Forty days of Jonah and Nineveh, Jonah 3:4. 6. Forty days Ezekiel lay on his right side to symbolize the 40 years of Judah's transgression, Ezekiel 4:6.* * Thus 40 becomes a number closely connected with Judah, as 390 (Ezekiel 4:5) is the number of separated Israel. The significance of this will be seen (on note on number 8), for 40 is a multiple of 8, and
390 is a multiple of 13. It may also be noted that 65 (5x13) is the number of Ephraim, while 70 is specially connected with Jerusalem. 7. Forty days Jesus was tempted of the Devil, Matthew 4:2. 8. For forty days after his resurrection Jesus was seen of His disciples, speaking of things pertaining to God's kingdom, Acts 1:2. Additional commentary on the Biblical meaning of 40 * The number 40 is mentioned 146 times in the Bible. The number points to or symbolizes trial and testing, or probation. How is the number forty related to TRIALS and TESTING? Jesus Christ was tempted of the Devil 40 days and 40 nights. Jesus was seen 40 days by His disciples after His resurrection. It was 40 years from the crucifixion of Jesus until the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple in 70 AD. Moses was 40 years in Egypt, 40 years in the desert, and 40 years in the wilderness leading the children of Israel. Moses was on Mount Sinai twice with God for 40 days and 40 nights receiving the Law. Twelve spies investigated the Promised Land for 40 days. Elijah was 40 days at Mount Horeb. Jonah preached that judgment was to come to Nineveh in 40 days. Ezekiel laid on His right side for 40 days symbolizing Judah’s sins. How is the number 40 related to PROSPERITY and PROBATION? Ancient Israel, for forty years, was judged by Othniel. Israel was also judged for 40 years by Barak and Gideon. A united Israel was also ruled, for forty years each, by King Saul, then King David, the by David's son King Solomon. Joash, considered one of the betters kings of the Kingdom of Judah, reigned for forty years (835-796 B.C.). The Bible was written by forty different people - which pictures probation. Christians are under judgment now - under probation - based on how they live by every word of God.
