Come and see the poetry, the literary structures, the illustrations and the charts that will revolutionize your study of Isaiah.

Many people know that the Spring Feasts of Israel (Passover, Unleavened Bread, and Firstfruits) were fulfilled in magnificent detail at the first coming of Christ. Some also understand that the Fall Feasts (Trumpets, Atonement, and Tabernacles) are appointments set long ago with Israel and Christ for His second coming. But do you know what the prophecies in the Fall Feasts are?  Will you recognize the signs of the times?

There is a story of the peoples of Israel that is woven into the background of all history and all prophecy. The sons and daughters of Lehi are just one of the branches in an epic tale whose scope is not just a country, not even the nations, but in prophetic events that will envelop the whole world. It is written in the stars. It is rehearsed in the ancient Feasts of Israel. It is encoded throughout the scriptures. Ether, Isaiah, Nephi, Mormon, and Moroni saw it—and so did Joseph Smith. Jesus initiated stage two in AD 33, and stage three is on the prophetic horizon. Do we understand how the vision of the fulfillment of covenantal promises made to Lehi and to all of the fathers of Israel unfolds? Do we know the backstory of the branches of the house of Israel well enough to fulfill Ephraim’s part?

A simple conversation… a multi-layered prophecy that would revolutionize the teachings and the missions of the early apostles… Here, Jesus would establish the beginning of a new era of time—and embed within their exchange of words, a code that details precisely when that era will be fulfilled.
