THE ONLY SIGN THE MESSIAH GAVE [WHO IS ANTI 'AGAINST' CHRIST?

THE "ONLY" SIGN THAT HE IS THE MESSIAH: 
(TO PROVE HE WAS THE 'CHRIST')

WAS THAT HE WOULD BE IN THE HEART OF THE EARTH THE SAME TIME JONAH WAS IN THE BELLY OF THE WELL.

[3 NIGHTS AND THREE DAYS]

72HRS-IN "THE BELLY OF THE WHALE" "THE HEART "GROUND" OF THE EARTH"

1 day (see Genesis) is [includes] evening (night)and then morning (light-'day') (a.k.a. 'goes from' evening to evening see Leviticus 23:32;)

WED JUST BEFORE THE SUN WENT DOWN TIL SATURDAY JUST BEFORE THE SUN WENT DOWN

Sunday evening, then morning [as the sun was coming up-visit by the Mary's to the tomb-the Lord had already risen by then [before sundown on the 7th day Sabbath]-but did not ascend until the 'first day of the week'-[pictured in the"wave sheaf" offering before the Lord--after the Sabbath--when they could then touch Him-after He was accepted as our 'wave sheaf' offering before God, the Father for us-mankind]

WED WAS THE PASSOVER-A PREPARATION DAY- FOR THE ANNUAL SABBATH
*night time portion--Passover 'Last Supper' with disciples
*day time portion--execution and burial right before the sun went down

THURS WAS THE 1ST DAY OF THE DAYS OF UNLEAVENED BREAD
(THE FIRST HIGH DAY-ANNUAL SABBATH UNTO THE LORD OUR GOD)

FRIDAY WAS THE WEEKLY PREPARATION DAY BEFORE THE WEEKLY SABBATH

*spices bought

SATURDAY WAS THE WEEKLY 7TH DAY SABBATH
*Messiah risen before sundown

SUNDAY- FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK 'DAY AFTER THE SABBATH'
*tomb visit, Messiah had already risen from the dead and now He would ascend to Heaven

God's days are made up of night and day
Evening then morning-the first day
From evening [sundown] to evening [sundown] is one day according to God

So we have the Preparation Day:  (Passover)-Wednesday [or "the 4th day of the week"] before sundown-placed into the tomb
 
*sundown Wed begins a new day--Thursday 
"the 5th day of the week" (night portion)
 

Then Thursday [a High Day-or Annual Sabbath]
 

*(1) the night portion and (1) the day portion of the 5th day of the week
 
Then Friday [the "weekly" Preparation day-before the"weekly" 7th day Sabbath]
 
*(2) the night portion and (2) the day portion of "the 6th day of the week"
 
Then Saturday, the 7th day of the week, the Sabbath of the Lord, your God
*(3) the night portion and (3) the day portion

Three nights and Three days: Christ rose

Now He did not ascend to the Father until "the first day of the week", but He rose the 7th day of the week. We know this because they could not yet touch Him.

God taught this through the keeping of the Passover, the Days of Unleavened Bread and the wave sheaf offering.

The wave sheaf offering was always the first day of the week after the 7th day Sabbath during the Days of Unleavened Bread.

This pictured Christ, our High Priest, going before God for us and being accepted by God: learn about the wave sheaf offering, it's in the Old Testament,

God has always had a 'plan' and He shows it through the keeping of the weekly and annual Sabbaths, of the Lord, our God.

Do we believe Christ? He said 3 nights and 3 days? This was His only sign, that He indeed was the Christ "the Messiah"!! He had access to God's Spirit without limit, for He always did that which pleased the Lord. 

Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world. (John 11:9 NKJ)
