Question 6:

 

Ponder the monumental importance of such a timepath. What does it speak to you?

 

Answer:

The 8 persons are a picture of the all the elect of God saved through out time starting with Noah's generation (God makes several comparisons between Noah's days and the days just before Christ returns). These 8 souls are in the ark which is a portrait of the body of Christ in Jesus Christ (the ark). Their lifespans portrayed individually by Noah's lifespan represent the lifespan of the elects upon the earth starting with Noah who is the father of all the elects after the flood as they were all in Noah’s loins and Noah is also the one who is their comforter, depicting Jesus Christ (see what Lamech had to say at his birth). So starting at Noah’s birth in 5590 B.C., we take Noah’s life as the first of the eight lifespans and then go for seven more lifespans to account for the other 7 persons in the ark and we land at 2011 A.D. Very simple timepath using only the Biblical numbers from the account of the flood and the birth year of Noah.
