NO MAN KNOWS THE DAY, NOR THE HOUR

We Christians are being mocked for our naivety.  Indeed, we should be.  Ignorance is no excuse:

The Appointed Times of Israel are very pertinent as rehearsals of God's work. Most of the Book of Revelation draws from imagery in the Feast of Trumpets (Yom Teruah), The Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur), and The Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot). This is why when most christians say "No Man knows the Day, or Hour" of the Messiahs Second coming we Jews laugh. There is only one day in Israels Calendar called the Day and Hour No Man Knows-- Yom Teruah--The Feast of Trumpets. So we really do know the day and hour-- we just don't know the year. Israel has been given these appointed times as a perpetual ordinance through all our generations. So All you Israeli Ephraimites might want to check them out as they pertain to ALL the House of Israel and not just Judah alone.

We really should be tuned into God's calendar more than we are as a people.  More from this fellow with a Jewish background:

GOD'S APPOINTED TIMES-- THE MOEDIM--

Consider the following historical events in Church History:
• December 23, 1805 (Hanukkah: 8th Day) – Joseph Smith Jr. Born (Founder of LDS Faith) –The Day for lighting the last great Light on the menorah. By some considered to be a representative of the seven great angelic messengers of God
• September 21, 1823 (Sukkot I) – Joseph prays and is visited three times during the night by an angel named Moroni. Moroni tells him about a hidden book and quotes scriptures from the books of Joel, Isaiah, and Malachi.
• September 22, 1823 (Sukkot II) – Joseph goes to the place where the gold plates are concealed, but is instructed by the angel Moroni not to retrieve them.
• September 22, 1827 (Erev Rosh Hashana or Feast of Trumpets) – Joseph receives the gold plates.
• April 3, 1836 (Pesach I or Passover) – Mormons believe that during the dedication of the Kirtland Temple, Jesus, Moses, Elijah, and Elias appeared to Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery, restoring the Gospel. They committed to Joseph and Oliver the keys of the gathering of Israel from the four parts of the earth, the leading of the ten tribal families from the north, the administering of the keys of the Abrahamic dispensation, and the keys of sealing powers. (D&C 110:3–4, 7).
• 4-5, to May 1842 (Shavuot) Initiation and completion of endowments to nine men who formed the anointed quorum.
And consider the following:
• Passover: Spring Conference
• Sukkot: Fall conference
