Summary of Bible references on the Rapture

The Rapture is the church's 9th of Av moment

1. I have already gone through the three parables the Lord gave to show that 1/6th of the saints are raptured (Evil and good servants in the house, 5 out of 10 virgins, and then 2/3 of those invested their talents). We saw this on 9th of Av when 2/12 Spies gave a good report.

2. The Lord will tell those who are raptured to come up here, but what does He tell the believers who are left behind during the tribulation? You will have to wander here for forty months until you are all dead. Again, 9th of AV.

3. The Lord's word that they would be eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage is prophetic and they were being condemned for this. There is one day on the calendar when all Jews would be condemned for this and that is the 9th of Av. Believers in the NT age were told from day 1 that "blessed are they that mourn". The church age is an age where we mourn sin and yet these believers are not mourning. It is an age where we fast and pray, and yet they are not fasting or praying. We are told from the very beginning "blessed are they that hunger and thirst for righteousness" yet they are not hungering for righteousness, they are feasting with the drunken in this sinful and adulterous age.

4. We are told that the world will celebrate the Lord's crucifixion while the genuine believers would mourn, but that their mourning would be turned to joy and at the same time the world's party would come to a crashing end. We see this on the 9th of AV and we see this on the day the church is raptured.

6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.

The church is the temple of God. The rapture is the removal of the church. Not all believers will be raptured, for those that aren't this will be a day of mourning. They will learn that they must go through the tribulation and die in the wilderness. This will also be a wake up call to the Jews to realize that they missed who the real temple was.

The first Temple had a very strong "God is one" message, you could see this as signifying God the Father.

However, the Second temple began with a countdown to Jesus coming, it was very messianic, and when Jesus was crucified and destroyed that temple was also destroyed.

But then you see the Spirit poured out on Pentecost, the church was born and was similar to the tabernacle, a movable tent to house the glory of God. Over 2,000 years the church was built into the Temple of God.

Since the first and second temple were removed on the 9th of AV it would make sense that this temple also would be removed on the 9th of AV.

1. 1/3 of the Jews on Earth died during the Holocaust and according to Revelation 1/3 of those on the Earth die during the great tribulation.

As you have done it will be done unto you.

2. On the 9th of AV Nebuchadnezzar takes the Israelites to Babylon. On the 9th of AV, 2520 years later WWI starts resulting in 20 million deaths.

3. On the 9th of AV Nebuchadnezzar takes Jerusalem and then 2520 years later Hitler is appointed Chancellor.

4. From God declaring judgement in Nebuchadnezzar was 2520 years to the Nuremberg trials.

5. Germany had a complete collapse of their currency and now with BRICS it looks like the US will see a complete collapse of their currency.

6. One key event in WWII was Dunkirk, without the snatching away of the Army to Britain the war probably would have taken a very different turn. During the tribulation we have the rapture of the saints out of certain destruction, again looking like Dunkirk.

7. D Day was when the US overwhelming force landed on the beaches of Normandy and it was the beginning of the end for Germany, likewise during the tribulation you see Jesus lead his army to rescue Israel prior to Armageddon.

Time is about to end and our world will be changing dramatically

Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!" (Isa. 5:20.)

The 9th of Av

No one knows the day or the hour

Matthew 24:35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. 36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. 37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, 39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

First, it is not clear if the context of this verse is about the rapture or about Heaven and Earth passing away. But the following verses about Noah are clearly saying that those outside the Ark "knew not until the flood came". This is a clarification of the verse. Obviously Noah knew what was going on, he had built the boat, stocked it with food and water, loaded the animals on, and then put his family on the boat a week before the flood.

1Thessalonians 5:1 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. 2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. 3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. 4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. 5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. 6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.

No verse is of its own interpretation. The verse that says no one knows the day or the hour should be compared with the following verses about Noah and it is clear He is only talking about those who were taken away in the flood. Likewise, here in 1Thessalonians Paul says we should be perfectly clear on the times and the seasons. Psalms tells us the year of the rapture and a number of other prophecies tell us of the season. Jesus told us with the Fig tree prophecy that He would return in great glory on the clouds before Israel turns 81, or before May 14, 2029. Since this probably happens in the last year of the 70th week we can infer that the 70th week would begin at Feast of Trumpets 2022. Then Paul tells us it comes as a "thief in the night when they say peace and security". Everyone would agree this is the darkest period of time we have ever seen and Joe Biden is a thief having stolen the 2020 election. He recently came to Jerusalem and proclaimed "Peace and Security" while pushing a plan to divide up Israel and give half of it to the Palestinians. Then Paul tells us "let us not sleep as do others". There is no doubt that many people are sleeping right now, not realizing that we are at war with Russia and we are about to attacked with nuclear bombs. NYC just issued a warning that everyone should have a go bag to flee the city in the event of a nuclear attack.

Revelation 3:3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.

Clearly we are charged to watch, it is a command from the Lord Jesus. This comes with a warning that if we don't watch we won't know what hour He is coming. This totally refutes the interpretation that "no one knows the day or the hour". Put all these verses together and it is clear that no one in the world knows, no one who is drunk on the worldly wine knows, and no one who is sleeping knows. But this is not true of those who are awake, who are preparing like Noah, and who are watching and are in the light.

The 9th of Av, part 2

The church is the third temple that will push Israel to anger by a foolish nation

Deuteronomy 32:21 They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God; they have provoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will move them to jealousy with those which are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.

God is responding to Israel provoking Him to jealousy by provoking them to jealousy. The single most provocative day for Israel was the 9th of Av when they insulted God to His face saying they were unable to enter the good land and crying about wanting to die in the wilderness. The first temple was removed on the 9th of Av, the 2nd Temple was also removed on the 9th of Av, and if we consider that the church is the third temple then it would be fitting if it was also removed on the 9th of Av.

Ephesians 2:21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:

Not only would this fit the pattern but it would also provoke Israel to jealousy, fulfilling this prophecy. If the rapture takes place on any other day it is possible the Jews wouldn't get the point, but by doing it on the 9th of Av it will be impossible for observant Jews to miss the point.

Do not criticize those that use the name of Jesus

I am a geologist and taught about the Earth and the moon's gravity every year as a teacher. I never knew that the Stratosphere protects the waters of the deep from the full impact of the moon's gravity.

However, it is not just the ocean tides that bulge due to the moon's gravity but also the atmosphere does too. That bulge makes the atmosphere heavier and as a result you have a heavier weight pushing down on the ocean, particularly the "deep" at the same time you have the moon's gravity pulling the ocean deep up.

This is a woman who did not know how to pronounce stratosphere in an earlier video. I have no idea where she got this from if it were not from Jesus.

The 9th of Av, part 3

We have an OT type of the restrainer being removed

2Thessalonians 2:6 And you know what is restraining him now so that he may be revealed in his time. 7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work. Only he who now restrains it will do so until he is out of the way.

The one who restrains can be likened to the wall around Jerusalem holding out the Roman invaders and the men on the wall at the front of the battle. These are the ones who are raptured. They are taken up, the wall is breached, and the invaders flood in. The 17th of Tammuz is when the walls were breached and the enemy horde swept into Jerusalem. Paul says that our rapture takes place when that which restrains is moved out of the way.

What happens after the rapture? The Bible doesn't say that AntiChrist is revealed the same day as the rapture but it does say that fallen angels are cast to Earth like a flood and that is what happens when the walls are breached. Think of the fallen angels as an invading host laying siege to Jerusalem.

We have been told in these prophecies about CERN that "our walls have been breached" since they turned CERN on full power. The 17th of Tammuz was the 16th of July. It may be that since that point the walls protecting the earth referred to in post #5293 have been breached. The temple, which is the church, is removed on the 9th of Av in this typology.

The 9th of Av, part 4

On the 9th of AV Noah released the raven, and on the 16th of August (9th of AV) the Taliban took over Afghanistan. Ravens eat carrion just like the Taliban taking over all the equipment and army bases of the US abandoned.

However, it explains this verse that the Lord's coming is as a thief in the night. The people of Afghanistan woke up the next morning and everyone was in the street and they were asking what happened and the people said "the Taliban took over". In a single night their whole world changed.

Now imagine if on the 9th of Av this year they wake up to learn the church has left and been raptured.

9th of Av

11 And the Lord said unto Moses, How long will this people provoke me? and how long will it be ere they believe me, for all the signs which I have shewed among them? 12 I will smite them with the pestilence, and disinherit them, and will make of thee a greater nation and mightier than they...

22 Because all those men which have seen my glory, and my miracles, which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have tempted me now these ten times, and have not hearkened to my voice; 23 Surely they shall not see the land which I sware unto their fathers, neither shall any of them that provoked me see it: 24 But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and hath followed me fully, him will I bring into the land whereinto he went; and his seed shall possess it...

28 Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the Lord, as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you: 29 Your carcases shall fall in this wilderness; and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward which have murmured against me. 30 Doubtless ye shall not come into the land, concerning which I sware to make you dwell therein, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun. 31 But your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have despised.

Curse

32 But as for you, your carcases, they shall fall in this wilderness. 33 And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, and bear your whoredoms, until your carcases be wasted in the wilderness. 34 After the number of the days in which ye searched the land, even forty days, each day for a year, shall ye bear your iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall know my breach of promise. 35 I the Lord have said, I will surely do it unto all this evil congregation, that are gathered together against me: in this wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die. 36 And the men, which Moses sent to search the land, who returned, and made all the congregation to murmur against him, by bringing up a slander upon the land, 37 Even those men that did bring up the evil report upon the land, died by the plague before the Lord. 38 But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of the men that went to search the land, lived still. 39 And Moses told these sayings unto all the children of Israel: and the people mourned greatly.

Signs of the End of the Age

Explosion of Global Travel -- We see this is the Lord's judgement on the 9th of Av. You searched the land for 1 day, now you wander for 1 year. That is a 365x increase. Think about that. Just this year alone I have driven close to 10,000 miles going back and forth from NY to South Dakota 3 times and going from South Dakota to St. Louis twice. A hundred years ago that would have taken me at least 60 days if not longer, it would have been much more dangerous. Since one of those trips involved moving my family, if I had gone by wagon train that trip alone would have taken at least 100 days. In other words, what was a few days of driving over the last six months would have been 5 continuous months of very hard and dangerous travel. Think about the Jews, how far they have travelled in 2000 years, what was the point? I believe that although it was a punishment, it also had a positive purpose, so that now they could love the land of Israel even more than ever.

Explosion of knowledge -- the spies spied out the land for 40 days. The Lord said they "searched" the land. This is like our searching the scriptures, no doubt they picked up valuable knowledge. However, they are cursed to do this for 40 years, one year for one day, again an increase of 365x. It is quite amazing how much is available to us today through the computer. I can check the Blue letter Bible, I can go to commentaries on any verse in the Bible, I can access youtube videos of various messages that people are sharing, and I can search the scriptures for key words. When I was younger I needed 25 different versions of the Bible, I needed a concordance, Vine's word study, and an entire bookcase of Bible commentaries. Now it is all available easier, faster, and better online. Again, this was a punishment, but it had a purpose. Why did the people fear entering the good land? They lacked faith. What the Lord has done has provided us with the tools to strengthen our faith.

Global weather events -- There are five times the Lord promises to consume those that slandered Him with death and that we would know this was because we had broken the promise. When I see the fires in California I know that is because they have been very poor stewards of the land. When they say there is a drought in California I know the reality is they have been consuming more water than they received for decades and they did it intentionally, planting water intensive crops like Almonds and putting up golf courses. I also know that 80% of California's water budget is for agriculture. You could plant crops that use less water but they don't. I studied geology and I know that the vast majority of floods where you see houses, streets, and buildings flooded is because they ignored the science. Rivers are supposed to flood. You should put your farms next to the rivers and when it floods it leaves a layer of silt. But they put houses and cities in flood plains. For example, the 9th ward in New Orleans was destroyed after hurricane Katrina. Everyone knew this would happen. If you wanted flood insurance for a house in the 9th ward it costs 1/3 of the cost of the house per year. These are man made catastrophes.

Global telecommunications -- At the time of Israel everyone in the camp would know when a disaster happened and when people died. But today we are a worldwide camp. So disasters like fires in California and floods in New Orleans are broadcast all over the world. Every one of these events should be a message that we are reaping what we sowed by doing what is right in our own eyes and ignoring the Lord's leading.

Global Evangelism -- In this curse that God gives is also the promise of evangelism. Your children that you were so afraid of, they shall enter the land, you won't. Not only is there a promise of evangelism but it is your only hope. You are not going to enter in, so you had better invest in your kids. Now I want you to consider how much easier it is to preach the gospel now with the internet, and cyberspace, and Youtube, and people all over the world able to access your posts.

Global Pestilence -- Epidemics are the result of unclean living. The Bible warns of uncleanness and yet people have ignored these rules. Bubonic plague -- uncleanness. Dysentary -- uncleanness. Monkey Pox -- uncleanness. AIDS -- uncleanness. I am not saying that a virus is the result of unclean living, that is the result of sin. No, but the widespread transmission of a disease is due to uncleanness. This is what it means to "bear your whoredoms", that is widespread uncleanness. We see this judgement in verse 12 and verse 37.

Digitization of Money -- This is the hardest to see in this curse. Look at the long discourse prior to the curse where God says they saw my miracles and they tempted me these ten times but "Caleb had another spirit". What does that mean? If I tell twelve people, you need to give up everything to follow the Lord, 10 people will find a reason to ignore this. In their spirit there is no way they are giving up their money, it is their security blanket. But, Caleb had a different spirit. The world's spirit is to rely on money, it makes people feel safe and secure. But in the end what is it? Money is simply a number. If I look in my account and it says 5 million I feel secure, if tomorrow it is down to 4.5 million now I am scared, O No, what happened? This is a slap in the face to God. If you are in God as your high tower then you are safe and secure, if not you aren't. Those numbers on a piece of paper are vanity. Today we have 62 trillion in derivatives, just numbers. This makes it so a few people living near Washington DC and a few other places around the globe (Hamptons, Martha's Vineyard, Aspen, etc) can party and celebrate while the rest of the world starves. This is what it means to "bear your whoredoms". This is the economic system of the whore of Babylon.
