Interesting, MaryLu, I was just stitting here thinking about our Departure (aren't we all๐) when I opened my mail program and saw this post of yours. I am not one who believes in imminence--in the sense that the Rapture could occur at any old day. God is a God of incomprehensible precision, mathematical/physical. He doesn't do random chance. Of course He knows the day, and has since before creation. It is appointed. Bur random, no. As I was praying for it to "hurry up," I chuckled, b/c of course it's already appointed. Therefore I prayed we'd hurry up to get to the ship before departure. Already the engines are fired and crew is loosening the ropes securing it to shore. Paul tells us God is waiting for the fullness of the Gentiles to come in. Does that mean there is a set number of saints He has appointed and He is waiting for that last little lamb to wiggle in? Or does it mean He has set a day, a day based on prophetic types and numerical fulfillments that are set according to His precise patterns? Yes. Surely the Lord cometh quickly. Maranatha.
I completely agree! The date and time of the Rapture was determined before God even made the Earth. It is set in stone like everything God determines and plans. I love your ship analogy! To answer your question, I believe you are absolutely correct in the latter thing you said. I do not believe He is "waiting" for the last gentile to get saved. Maranatha! Blessings!
Since it is now July, do you think a Spring/Summer Rapture is still possible? Initially, it was thought to be near the end of Spring and early Summer, but it is almost two weeks since Summer started. I could only hope that the Lord will bring about the Rapture soon or would that mean we have to wait until just before the Tribulation in the Fall? If only the Bible hinted the time gap between the Rapture and Tribulation, that would put immediate closure in having to only make surmises on this question.
There is said to be cancellations of outdoor summer activities and even Fourth of July celebrations due to fear of immigration raids. Do you think this will come to a point where even staying at home is dangerous due to Global Surveillance and AI being capable of doing unimaginably bypass-like steps to find every individual disloyal to the AC? I seriously hope we will be gone by then.
I trust the Lord fully but I just hope we leave very soon even though no major evil has taken place yet. It is like when a prey feels very secure, and the predator suddenly jumps out without warning and catches the prey. Please keep us posted of more signs and Blessings!
Hello, Anonynous, some possible encouragement. The closer we get to our Departure the more light God is giving to His servants. There is a good case being made by several that the true Acts 2 Pentecost was actually at the time of the end of the summer wheat harvest and festival of new wine--late summer beginning of Fall--so still on our horizon for July/August (before we get to the Fall Feasts timeframe). This is based on the typology and patterns of the Book of Ruth, Jewish weddings timings, astronomical and mathematical calculations that can be done thanks to modern technology and software programs not available to the early church. Nevertheless, all systems look "go" for this year. May it be so!
Thanks for the encouraging reply. Yes I believe it is the New Wine Theory which I heard would be another 7 weeks or 50 days after Pentecost, which was supposedly back on June 8th. This may mean that July 27 or 28 may seem promising, but I have also seen July 23 as well. If those come to pass, then I would look at August 3rd, which is Av 9 in the Jewish Calendar and is said to have some significance based on some biblical stories.
However, if we are still here after the above dates have passed, then I guess it may have to be just prior to the Fall Feasts when we leave. I really hope it does not turn out this way, for I have confidence like Sister MaryLu that the Tribulation has to start this Fall in view of how fast evil is worsening and how far more cruel I have seen people become, whether by words or actions. I do not want to imagine us having to wait until next year since demons are moving fast in putting everything in place to destroy humanity. Think AI, Palantir, “Vaccines,” and the next pandemic which I feel could be tied to the Fourth Seal (Pale Horse). Come Quickly Lord Jesus!
Blessings to you and your loved ones. Stay strong in Jesus and keep looking up!
Chuckling, I think we are following the same Watchmen/Women! Yes, eyes on July 23 esp, as Lu Vega is an amazing researcher and mathematician/amateur astronomer/student of Biblical types and patterns. But others are looking to 9th AV. An argument has been made that would be an incongrous date (remembering disaaster) for the Church, who will be experiencing great joy. But perhaps the diaster aspect will be for the Jewish people, and the others left behind? Regardless, prospects are so promising for this year! I agree completely that the world evil and technology is just progressing too quickly for us to be here even very far into next year. As JD Farag is know to say, God must come for us soon or the technology will out pace Rev. 13! BLessings back at'cha, sister. CU in the Rapture!
I love seeing you all chatting and answering each other. I want this to be a place of peace and encouragement as we all wait for the Lord. Yes, there are many "Watch" dates coming up. To be honest, I've been at this for so long, I no longer watch many of the watchmen and women and all their predictions. I used to get excited at every new video, but I learned over the years to just take what is said with a grain of salt. If you look back to some of the first videos of these people you'll see many have been saying the rapture is imminent and soon for 20 years! Every year, they go through and point to all the "watch" dates and say this is the year.. and they even have star alignments to back it up. I'm not saying they are wrong this time at all, and I'm not trying to discourage anyone. Please keep watching and keep praying!! Amen to that! But try to not put all your hopes on one date because when it passes, it can really break your spirit. Having said that, I still believe this is the year, but I'm not looking at any particular date. I always believed we would be a spring/summer harvest, based on Scripture, but if we end up leaving in the Fall, I won't be complaining! Either way, the world is getting far too evil all around us and there are so many many signs of the Lord's soon return. So hang in there, and keep praying and following Jesus. End your race well! That's all that matters! Blessings to you both!
MaryLu, I completely agree with you regarding watching for dates anymore! I just take the speculations under advisement. Fun to watch, but I'm not invested in any of them. Since Rev12 there have been so many "reasonable" possibilities based on Scripture and all kinds of methods, but Abba will send His Son for us at HIS time. There's very few watchmen/women I "follow." I'm far more paying attention to the outward signs: geopolitical, technological, societal etc. I was thinking this morning of the line from It is Well With My Soul, "Lord, haste the day when that trump shall resound . . . ." If only we could! So I altered my prayer to Lord, hasten us getting there ๐ Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
Sounds like we are on the same page! Yes.. it's been a long road since 2017! Like you, I'm mostly watching the signs around me and connecting the prophetic dots. It's looking real good for this year! I love that song too. I don't think it's wrong to pray for the Lord to hurry and get us!
Amen Amen Amen! I believe this implies how faith involves constant patience no matter how difficult it may feel.
There has been a news podcast talking about the government’s new database to track Americans - no coincidence since you recently mentioned how it is undoubtedly for evil purposes as we Believers know. Is it likely most people will scoff at this thinking it is nothing out of the ordinary? Literally, God help these people!
I thought something about the Abraham Accords: right now, I believe it is among the US and Israel with Bahrain and Morocco. I heard that Syria and Saudi Arabia might potentially join. The Administration reportedly ended US sanctions with Syria - is this another fulfillment of prophecy for if Syria joins, could that bring about a chain of events leading to Gog-Magog War? Regarding Saudi Arabia, I saw someone on a news forum comment how the Crown Prince could potentially be the AC and if Saudi Arabia joins, could that really cause a huge shift in relations between the Israeli and Islamic regions? Nevertheless, this is further proof that nothing can or will ever change prophecy, isn’t it?
Trump’s megabill is said to be making progress in being passed. Simply put, this is just another step to destroying humanity and of course, setting up for the Tribulation? If so, then could this support that the Tribulation has to start this Fall considering how close this is happening to that season?
Also, do you think one of the Red Heifers have to be sacrificed by now? There has not been any peep about it for some time especially for an important prophecy, but could it be like this to avoid inciting the wrath of those who oppose the sacrifice? Either way, they will know sooner or later, but the Daniel Covenant will temporarily put tensions at ease - is this the correct analysis of God’s timing in this matter?
Brother, I love your enthusiasm and that you are so carefully watching the signs! I don't have the answers to many of your questions because only God knows.. but yes, I do see the Abraham Accords as being the basis for the Covenant signed by the AC. There is much talk about them now and adding more countries, which as you said is very interesting and worth to watch. I've heard Trump's Bill has passed or will pass soon and yes, from what I know if it, it will only fast track our country into the Tribulation. So, it is yet another sign. My personal belief is that the Red Heifers were already sacrificed in secret and they have the ashes necessary for cleansing the altar and other utencils of the temple. I also heard there are plans to start construction this year! Blessings!
I needed this in terms of constantly reminding myself that the Lord is in control of everything and all will happen accordingly to His timing. Many thanks for the encouraging message.
Like the commenters above, I am also desperately hoping that the Lord will take us home real soon, for it is totally possible that hell can break out anytime now due to worsening conflicts globally not just in the Middle East, but also in the US and even among citizens, the latter of which can be very subtle. Would you say this is another deception tactic the Devil uses to keep people unaware of what is really coming?
Moreover, I heard immigration raids have gotten to the point where detainees can be seized without warning and explanation, and worse, they can still be deported despite legal orders preventing so. This shows that basically nothing is safe anymore and even if something is, it is usually very small and temporary. Please save us Lord!
I heard some workforces are giving virtual presentations and lectures on Stress Management, and one of the topics will be to address the Middle East conflict and its impact on affected people in the workforces. One of the main things I would wonder is would anyone have the heart to address that this is all related to biblical prophecy when most people would either stay silent or downplay it with lack of any Scriptural references. I am sure a lot of people are not familiar with End Time prophecy, but wouldn’t they have to know about God’s plans, especially in the book of Revelations? Wouldn’t it be somewhat of a sin to believe in God yet be completely clueless about why such evil and chaos is happening around the world and pass them off as just mere ordinary problems? Wouldn’t true Christians know more than to just simply say “I believe in God/Jesus Christ?”
Yes, it seems Trump is placing himself in the role of a dictator. I heard he's even trying to deport American citizens who commit crimes. We have lost our freedom. It's just that most people don't even know it. Regarding people knowing about End Times, my guess is (based on observation and conversations) is that 90% of Christians are clueless about End times and most have never even read Revelation. Even worse, those who know a little about End Times have been deceived by pastors who say there is no rapture and we are in the millennial reign already or Jesus isn't coming back until the church conquers the world. Those of us who are awake and watching are a very small percentage. And the Unsaved are even more clueless. And yes, it would be highly displeasing to the Lord to call yourself a Christian and not be following Him and the Holy Spirit and preaching the Gospel and warning others. Blessings!
Amen.
ReplyDeleteNeeded this today as I've been waiting for the Lord's timing for a while now.
