tiberius caesar's 15th year and tribulation start 2016
DESCRIPTION
The Gregorian Date for the Fifteenth Year of Tiberius Caesar was determined using least squares regression analysis and consensus statistical analysis applied to the Chronology by Prophecy method. The most likely date of Tiberius Caesar’s 15th year was determined by this analysis to be 27AD using a normalized data set and 30AD without normalization. Based on the 27AD start date for the Kingdom of God (law and prophets were until John, since then the Kingdom of God) one may expect the tribulation to start anytime between January 2016 andAugusty 2017. Since rapture will happen sometime before tribulation start, make sure you have done as the wise virgins, not as the foolish maidens. The wise were prepared to go out and meet the bridegroom. Time is short to make your preparations for the call. My hope and prayer is that all who read will be ready.

Date of Tiberius Caesars 15th Year using Least Squares Regression & Consensus Dating O. P. Armstrong - July 2014
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

The Gregorian Date for the Fifteenth Year of Tiberius Caesar was determined using least squares regression analysis and consensus statistical analysis applied to the Chronology by Prophecy (CbP) method. The most likely date of Tiberius Caesars 15th year was determined by this analysis to be 27AD using a normalized data set and 30AD without normalization, Table 1. The results are shown in Table 1 Column b. Table 1 also shows Christ birth year (col.c), Exodus year (col.d), and year of Solomons Temple Completion (col.e), based on these two results. The most likely correct date of Tiberius Caesars 15th year is 27AD. This consideration is from the birth year of baby Jesus. A year of 1BC is too late by most chronologists.
As given in Table 1, the most likely year for Israels
Exodus from Egypt would be 1462BC and the most likely
date for the completion year of Solomons Temple would
be 975BC for Tiberius Caesars 15th year being 27AD.
Method
A grand total of 19 dates were used to statically
determine Tiberius Caesars 15th year. The method
used least squares minimization of error difference.
Two error functions were computed and averaged.
The 1st is the difference between TCs 15
th years and
the Exodus date as determined by various workers.
Chronology by Prophesy determined there to be
1488.5 years difference between these two dates. See
Table 2 to review method calculation.
The second error function (Table 3) looked at the years
between TCs 15th year and the completion date for
Solomons temple. CbP finds the year difference to be
1000.9. The error function minimized the difference
between provided data and 1000.9 years.
The RMS sum of the error is then minimized by
changing the assumed correct base year for TCs 15th
year using the Solver routine of Excel to find min error.
A further refinement was made by tossing out the high
and low years for the 2 events (Exodus and Temple
Completion). AKA normalization
This overall method is known as consensus forecasting.
The implications of this work are given by Table4. The
method of calculation is shown in Appendix 4. Other objective
functions, (OFs), were also evaluated by this method. The result of
using an additional 4 OFs confirmed a late 26 to 27AD result.
Those functions were 1) Rebuild Decree & 483 Year Prophesy, 2)
Passover Count & midst of week (3.5Y) cutoff or crucify, 3) Jesus
Birth Year & About 30Yr old, 4) Jerusalem destroyed 70AD & Jonah Sign..

Appendix I Corresponding Witnesses, 1. Witness of Chronology Research A) Ussher Annals
1A) The Romans dated the beginning of their
history from the supposed date of the founding of
the city ("Ab Urbe Condita" or AUC &
754AUC=1AD as usually abbreviated). Dionysius
Exiguus calculated that the year of our Lord's birth
was 753 AUC, 1BC. He made his equivalence of
dates from Lu3:1, "Now in the fifteenth year of the
reign of Tiberius Caesar" etc., at which time Christ
was 30 years of age according to Lu3:23. But it
was ascertained later that a mistake of four years
had been made; for it clearly appears by Mt2:1 that
Christ was born before the death of Herod, who
died in 749 AUC, 5BC Tiberius succeeded
Augustus, Aug. 19, 767 AUC, 14AD. Hence his
15th year would be 779 AUC, 26AD; and from
those facts Dionysius was right in his calculation.
But it was discovered in later years that Tiberius
began to reign as colleague with Augustus four
years before the latter died. Hence the 15th year
mentioned by Luke was four years earlier than was
supposed by Dionysius and consequently the birth
of Christ was that many years earlier than the date
selected by Exiguus, which date has been followed
ever since. This must be allowed for in any
computation of dates which involves events
happening before Christ. "The Wonders of Bible Chronology", Page 84,85, Philip Mauro, first published 1922,
Reprinted by, Reiner Publications, Swengel, Pennsylvania
4030a AM, 4739 JP, 26 AD pp 6282. It was in the
15th year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, (which
was the 13th of his empire which began after the
death of Augustus) when Pontius Pilate was
governor of Judea, Herod (Antipas), the tetrarch of
Galilee and his brother Philip, tetrarch of Ituraea
and the region of Trachonitis and Lysanias, tetrarch
of Abylene, under the priesthoods of Annas and
Caiphas. The word of the Lord came to John, the
son of Zacharias in the desert. {Lu3:1,2} He by
God's authority was a Nazarite who was both a
priest and prophet of the Lord and baptized in the
desert of Judea. (These cities were mentioned in
{Jos15:1-6}) He preached the baptism of
repentance for the remission of sins.
{Mt3:1 Mr1:4 Lu3:3} By his ministry, he announced
and made known to Israel, Christ who would come
after him. {Joh1:7,8,13} So John would certainly
know who he was, God gave him this sign.
Whomever he saw the Holy Ghost descending on
and remaining, he would know that it was he that
should baptize others with the Holy Ghost.
{Joh1:33}
4030b AM, 4740 JP, 27 AD pp6288. When all the
people were being baptized, Jesus came from
Nazareth of Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized of
John. {Lu3:21 Mt3:13 Mr1:9} John denied that Jesus
needed any baptism from him but the Lord urged
him and said that it was needful that all
righteousness be fulfilled. Then John baptized him.
{Mt3:14,15} Jesus was about 30 years old. {Lu3:23}
1B) Analysis of Jay Rogers, Frontrunner
In eastern provinces [of the Roman empire]
years were reckoned from the accession of the
reigning emperor, the second beginning on the first
New Years day after the accession, and the date
on which this occurred varied from one province to
another (Encyclopedia Britannica).
If Tiberius was installed before the New Year,
which occurred in the late summer in the eastern
provinces, it is likely that Luke and his audience of
Greek speaking Christians counted the accession
year twice. The year 14 AD in our modern
reckoning, contained Tiberias first and second
year. The fall of 15 AD was his third year, and so
on until the fall of 27 AD, which was his 15th year.
Another way of reckoning the beginning of Tiberias
reign is to predate to 13 AD, the year when
Tiberias became co-princeps with Augustus, a
common arrangement among the Emperors. At this
time, the powers held by Tiberius were made
equal, rather than second, to Augustuss own
powers. In the event of the Emperors passing the
latter would simply continue to rule without any
political upheaval. In this case, according to our
modern reckoning of years, Tiberias fifteenth
year would have been in the fall of 26AD

Either of these two reckonings fits Lukes account. Since both John and Jesus were both 30 years old by 26 AD, they could have entered the ministry anytime from late 26 to late 27. This squares with the other dates offered by Luke.
Pontius Pilate was ruler over Judea from 26 to 36 AD.
Caiaphas was high priest during the same period, 26 to 35 AD.
Herod Phillip II, tetrarch of Ituraea and Trachonitis was born in 4 BC and died in 34 AD.
Herod Antipas, tetrarch of Galilee and Peraea, was born in 20 BC and died in 40 AD.
Lysanias, tetrarch of Abilene, ruled the province between c.14 to 29 AD.
When Luke numbers the year of Tiberias reign as 15 and gives the names of several other rulers, he indicates a time window of about three years for
the beginning of Jesus ministry no earlier than 26 and no later than 29AD. Having decided on this, it becomes fairly certain that Jesus began His public ministry sometime between late 26AD to early 28 AD
1C Mr. KF Doig, NT Chronology
As with his other timed references, Luke, a Greek,
was using the Syro-Macedonian calendar familiar
to Theophilus, the Greek recipient of his letters in
Antioch. This calendar system led to the dating of
the Annunciation in the "sixth month" on March 25,
coinciding with the appearance of the first nova, or
Star of the Magi. Luke's use of this method of
dating is here continued. This calendar was in use
through much of the Middle East, including Judea,
and would here be an expected reference. The
usual reckoning was by the years of the Syrian
Seleucid Era, which dated by the Syro-Macedonian
calendar. The rulers of that area reckoned their
reigns by this calendar, as discussed in the chapter
on "Herodian Chronology."
They used inclusive reckoning, with the new year
beginning with the fall lunar month of Dios.1
The dating of the reign of Tiberius can be
according to Luke's Syro-Macedonian calendar
Tiberius became Caesar on August 19, 14AD, and
in that year Dios 1 fell on October 15.
Thus, his first regnal year according to the Syro-Macedonian calendar would be from Dios 1 or October 25, 13 until October 14, 14AD. Luke would have measured the fifteen years from that year one by non-accession, or inclusive, reckoning. Thus, the "fifteenth year" fell from October 20, 27 to October 9, 28. According to Luke's Syro-Macedonian reckoning John the Baptist began his ministry between these two dates. This falls in line with the arrival of Pontius Pilate by the autumn of 27. The earliest first Passover of Jesus' ministry would have been in 28. Based on Luke's use of the Syro-Macedonian calendar it was established that John the Baptist began his ministry between October 20, 27 and October 9, 28. This was the "fifteenth year of Tiberius." John began his ministry after the arrival of Pontius Pilate, by the fall of 27. John baptized Jesus soon thereafter, and the traditional date of January 6 is here used. This date is supported by an understanding of Luke's usage of Jesus being "about thirty years" old at that time, and the thirty years are exact by the Jewish or Syro-Macedonian calendars. The chronology will proceed using January 6, 28 as the probable date for the baptism of Jesus. See J. Finegan, Handbook of Biblical Chronology (Princeton: Princeton Univ. Press, 1964), 61-69
1D EF Martin: Are INCLUSIVE countings NORMAL
in the writings of Luke? If Luke was employing the
Syriac year (and traditionally both he and
Theophilus were from Antioch), then Tiberius' 15th
year began with Tishri 1, A.D. 27. This reckoning
would dovetail with the Judahite year in Jerusalem.
This latter deduction appears the most likely. The
Messiah's statement recorded in Luke 4:16-21 can
now be recognized as a reference to the Sabbatical
Year of A.D. 27 to A.D. 28.

Appendix 2 The witness of Prophetic/ Historical for Daniel 69 Weeks
The prophecy of Daniel 9.27 from the issue of decree to rebuild unto Messiah, The Prince also refers to
Jesus revealing as Messiah by Johns baptism in 15th year of Tiberius Caesar. Thus a third method to
find the occurrence of TCs 15th year date. The time from the proclamation unto TCs 15th year is fixed by
prophecy to be 483 years. Daniel9 predicted there to be 69 weeks of years from the going forth of the
decree to rebuild Jerusalem unto Messiah the
prince. Ezra, a descendant of Seraiah the high
priest, was living in Babylon when in the seventh
year (~ 457 BCE) of Artaxerxes, king of Persia, the
king sent him to Jerusalem to teach the laws of
God to any who did not know them.
Adding 69*7=483 years to, say 457BC, gives (483-
457+1 BC2AD) or 27AD. If 458BC is used the
Messianic Prince year would be 26AD April March.
This is in agreement with Usshers work of 4th
quarter 26AD to 4th quarter 27AD as Tiberius C.s
15th year.
Summary
Three methods, 1) Statistical 2) Historical, & 3)
Prophetic/ Historical confirm the Baptism Year of
Jesus to within a narrow range from late 26AD unto
early 28AD. The implications of this for Rapture
and Tribulation Start dates are next considered.
Results are in
this Table.
For the Law
and the
prophets
were until John, since then the Kingdom of God is
preached. The since then refers to Jesus baptism.

Appendix 3 Servant Before: John was to go before the kingdom but he was not the kingdom Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall
prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye
seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the
messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in:
behold, he shall come, saith the Lord of hosts. &
Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the
coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord:
And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the
children, and the heart of the children to their
fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a
curse.
John was not the kingdom for every kingdom
needs a king. The word of John was prepare ye
the way, make way the kingdom, the kingdom is at
hand, not, 'the kingdom is here'.
And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of
heaven is at hand. For this is he that was
spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The
voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare
ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
John question to Jesus before his martyrdom in jail
was, "Are you the one or shall we look for
another?" This we know was for benefit of John
disciples. John was had been told 'He upon whom
you see... Is He. From that event, John knew the
kingdom was established at Jesus baptism. Jesus
reply could summarized as ' the kingdom is being
proclaimed with power. Jesus answered; You say
that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this
cause came I into the world (Jn18.37)
So the date we seek is not when John began
preaching but rather when, under John's preaching,
the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to
his temple. That temple was Christ Body for Jesus
said destroy this temple and in 3 days shall I raise
it again.
The space between, start of John preaching and
Jesus baptism, is more than 6 months and less
than 1 year. Thus the date, in the 15th year of
Tiberius Caesar, covers both events. Likely this
uncertainty is where we come into no one knows
the day nor the hour .
Nothing says the return time cannot be ascertained
within a year or a few months.
In fact there are far too many places where we are
told that the general time can be reasonably
determined. Second is the witness of past actions,
for example, In the fullness of time God sent forth
his son born of a virgin, I shall send my servant
before, For it was not yet his time
Appendix4 Times Determination
This is based on last half week postponement unto
the end (after) both the 2520 Days Tribulation and
after the millennium reign. There are 30.437 dy/mo
&1260*2days is 82.8mo or 6year 10.8mo or 1week
shy of 6y11mo. After 2 days He will revive us & on
the 3rd day he shall raise us up to be in His glory.
Daniel last half week is 3.5 years. So 3.5 years
plus tribulation time of 6y11mo. The sum of these
two times is 10y5mo less 7days.
For an Oct26AD Baptism, then 3000 years forward
is 3026.Oct. Now less 1000 year millennium is
2026 October. Again, less 10year gives 2016Oct &

Another way to count years is from Temple destruction backwards. The date of Destruction is well documented as: Within hours, the temple was destroyed, August 10, 70AD, which was on 15 Av(Ab) 3830, not 9 Av of Talmudic tradition which had accorded "minor adjustments" thereto presumably in remembrance of the first temple's destruction. The new moon preceding the fire occurred July 26 70 AD @ 7:09:03 AM JST(JD 1746831.7), with the full moon @ 6:54:42 PM JST August 10(JD 1746847.2), and 1 Tishri of the following Hebrew calendar year 3831 fell on Monday, Sep 24, 70 AD, so August 10, 70 AD/15 Ab 3830 is definitely the correct date of the fire.
By wicked Generation warning of Jonah is understood Jesus 40 year prophecy of Jerusalem destruction. Counting 40 years back gives August 10, 30AD. This being the likely date when Stephen was stoned and the Elders of the Temple rejected flatly the Gospel. For is found: Then they secretly induced men to say, "We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses and God." And they stirred up the people, the elders, and the scribes; and they came upon him, seized him, and brought him to the council. They also set up false witnesses who said, "This man does not cease to speak blasphemous words against this holy place and the law; for we have heard him say that this Jesus of Nazareth will destroy this place and change the customs which Moses delivered to us. Acts6. Indeed Jesus did weep over Jerusalem, saying For days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment around you, surround you and close you in on every side, and level you, and your children within you, to the ground; and they will not leave in you one stone upon another, because you did not know the time of your visitation."Then He went into the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in it. A confirmation of Jesus Baptism and Crucify date is obtained by count forward from the Rebuild decree year of 457BC by the numbered weeks (69 & 69.5) of Daniel, to arrive at 26.76AD, Baptism, and 30.26AD, Crucify.
The events between Pentecost and Stephens
stoning happened in rapid succession. These
events happen within June/July and all within

This Table details methods and criteria for error minimization by 6 Independent items. The result
determined the most likely 15th Year of Tiberius Caesar to be27.3AD. The result was marginally different
from just using the 1st two criteria. . The 1st two criteria of Exodus date and Solomon temple completion
date were discussed earlier. The rebuild decree date criteria looked at years 457,458, & 444BC. For the
444 date the elapsed year criteria are lunar years converted back to solar years. The Passover count
indicated there to be 3.5 years from anointing to crucify. Various crucify date were used with error count
from Tiberius 15th year. Again a similar criterion is for assumed birth years 4-8 BC unto selected minimum
there would be 31 years. The last criteria added was the 40 year Jonah warning from resurrection year
unto 70AD.
Since the likely baptism event of Jesus by John was in autumn, the closest date would be autumn 26 AD,
and next closest autumn 27AD. Most scholars see either 30 or 33 AD as crucify, then only 26.75AD
works for Jesus baptism, Birth year about 5BC, Passover as 30AD, and decree issue date 457BC and all
that matched to the 40 year warning of Jonah alluded to by Jesus that foretold Jerusalem destroy date of
70AD. The 3.5 year span from Baptism to crucify runs as 26.75AD+3.5=30.25AD.
They who wish match 40year warning to 33AD crucify fall into post dating prophecy. For they must arrive
at 30AD & that, say they, is baptism. However Jesus issued the Jonah warning mid to late ministry.

For the 33AD crucify group, the 15th year of TC then jumps forward to 29AD. The effect is to bring
forward Exodus and Temple completion dates by about 10 years, and add 6.9 years to the age at which
Solomon departed from Torah. That runs the risk of nullifying only Solomon latter years as apostate. A
33AD date also makes Adam age at Sin to be only 19.5. Fearfully close to being adolescent and under
the age of accountability. A surprising effect of last whole week postponement is that Tribulation start
date falls to end of year 2015. That is very close to the spring 2016 tribulation start for a 30AD crucify.

Jesus baptism by John began the Kingdom Epoch, the Law & the prophets were until John, since then the Kingdom is preached. If time is linear, then
knowing one point in the divine calendar allows mapping all other seven days into Gregorian time. Whilst there may be minor disputing about the precise
counting of the 15th year of Tiberius Caesar, etc, all concur to within a few years (range 26AD to 28AD). The birth of Jesus in Year 4BC fits within both
historical and prophetic documentation. The Biblical Seven Days of Creation teach us to consider that God shall complete all his work with fallen mankind
and make a new creation in seven days of one thousand years each. And I saw a New heaven and a New Earth spake John in his Revelation. Seven years

When Jesus was asked about the end of the age, his reply was to consider the fig tree. Know when you see the fig tree start to put forth its branches, then know that this Generation shall not pass away until all these things be fulfilled.
For the earth brings forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear.
After 2 days He shall revive us & on the 3rd day He shall raise us up to live in His presence
Jew & Jewrusalem are Gods time piece, seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and your holy city to make an end
As of this writing (July 2014), it very much appears that all the earth & especially the church are in a 3.5 year pre-jubilee window called, the time of the latter rain for a wonderful ingathering harvest.
