2Thessalonians 2:7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.

The mystery of iniquity is not simply demons or Satan, it is Freemasons, it is Albert Pike, it is the Rockefellers and Rothschilds. It is all the things that are going on behind the scenes prior to the rapture.

8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: 9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,


The rapture coincides with the Antichrist being revealed with all power and signs and lying wonders. They will claim to be aliens with good intentions, that is a lie. They will demonstrate a level of power that we are unfamiliar with and signs that seem miraculous or "magic".

10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.


There is a saying, be careful what you pray for, you just might get it. These people have prayed to to be damned, they take pleasure in unrighteousness, so God says I tried, you rejected the gospel, so fine, here have what you prayed for. The government leaders have been working with non human entities, they are not "aliens" they are demons and other evil creatures. If they had wanted to know the truth they would have, but they just wanted to receive their little gadgets and gizmos, so God said fine, here they are. On July 26th they will have a hearing concerning UFO with the "evidence" that they supposedly have. So the gospel has told the world about Jesus rising from the dead and the rapture being our blessed hope, but they refuse to receive that so instead they will be happy to receive the lie that they are aliens, apparently having travelled hundreds or even thousands of light years to come to the Earth to help mankind. How gullible and foolish do you have to be?

But know this, God will let them try and sell this little fiction. These demons will arrange it so that they have the best opportunity to convince anyone who doesn't want to hear the truth that this was an alien abduction. So unless you believe in coincidences the demons have chosen July 26, (7/26 -- Strong's 726 is harpazo, the word we use to mean the rapture). This date this year happens to be the Feast of New wine / 9th of Av, the day in history that most closely resembles the shadow of the rapture. Remember the ten spies who gave an evil report, well that is part of the shadow of this day. Little weasels, leaders of the country, who will report how big and mighty are these demons and we must not stand against them. As for me, I will stand with Jesus, the one they all fear.

For those of you thinking that the 8th/9th of Av is the rapture

We have the following encouraging information.

1. The tribulation should also be the seven years of famine. With the recent developments stopping all grain exports from Russia and Ukraine and with India banning Rice exports and with Vietnam and Thailand looking to boost prices on their rice exports we can say that the famine will begin this Feast of Trumpets.

Many of use feel quite strongly that the Feast of Trumpets would be the appointed time, the feast, to announce the beginning of the 70th week for Israel. The question was whether or not it would be this year or next. However, it seems quite clear that the seven year famine will begin this year.

2. The confirmation of Agenda 2030 is the confirmation of the seven year covenant and it has all the ingredients described in Revelation. It includes the need for the Mark of the Beast, it will be their plan for peace and security, and it lays the groundwork for the worst dictator in human history.

3. In August we can see the rise of the ten kings to replace the US dollar.

4. On July 26 they will have a UFO hearing presenting evidence of these "aliens". This is the great delusion that Satan gets to give people instead of the gospel. Instead of Jesus saving us with His blood we have demons saving mankind with their technology.

Many of us feel that the rapture will take place on an appointed day as this is the way God operates, He alone can tell you the end from the beginning. This is very important because the rapture will help cause many to repent and give themselves to the Lord and the reason it will do that is that it will be plain to them that God had told them everything beforehand. It can't be random. Just like Jesus' crucifixion could not be random in order to prove He was the Messiah. There is only one appointed day that precedes the Feast of Trumpets and that would be the Feast of New wine. This is a New Testament feast, a New Testament "appointed day".

I have already shared extensively why this feast is potentially a shadow of the rapture. In my opinion it is the single best appointed day in the Bible, although the Lord's table is also a very good candidate as well. What is very interesting is that the Lord's table was not instituted on the Lord's day, that was the day of resurrection, instead it was four days before the resurrection. The Feast of new wine this year is four days before the Lord's day by the Gregorian calendar. By the Hebrew calendar it is the 8th of Av and the 8th day is associated with Jesus Christ and new beginnings. It is also 7/26 which is the Strong's number for Harpazo. The Strong's number is not "random" rather the numbers are assigned based on the order of appearance in the New Testament. Harpazo is the 726th word to appear in the New Testament.

So all of these are good reasons for us to hope and have the earnest expectation of the Lord's soon appearing.

PROPHECY--DIVISIONS


Ephesians 5:1 Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; 2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savour. 3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints; 4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks. 5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

My son, today I speak to those who call themselves MINE and use MY GREAT NAME to bring about DIVISIONS in My body. Many have heard My words, and yet they still continue with the DIVISIONS. I say in My Word to LOVE your neighbor as yourself. I also say to LOVE your fellow brothers and sisters as I HAVE LOVED YOU. But those words are hollow to those in My body. Some in My body speak of the rapture, and they think they are ready. Some in My body think they are so holy that no one else can touch them.

My son, I tell you now - that I would not bring a body SO FULL OF HATE AND DIVISIONS to My kingdom. Those in My body are NO DIFFERENT than the world. The only difference is the world does not hide behind the MASK OF DECEPTION. My body tries to DECEIVE the world into thinking they are holy and righteous, when they are evil at heart and unclean! Why would I bring that into My kingdom? My body is so DIVIDED on the basic truth of the gospel, that all they do is confuse the unbeliever. My body takes the smallest jot and tittle and makes a whole doctrine of it. The Baptists have their doctrines, and the Pentecostals have their doctrines. Some say if you speak in tongues that you are of the devil. Some say you must be baptized totally immersed, while others sprinkle on water. Some say there are no more prophets, while others say everyone is a prophet or apostle. DIVISIONS!!!

My son, I AM going to bring about SUCH JUDGMENTS that My body will be either FOR Me - OR - AGAINST Me. I will bring My body TOGETHER AS ONE, and then I will bring those into My kingdom. COUNT ON THE EARTHQUAKES TO SHAKE UP MY BODY! COUNT ON THE TIDAL WAVES TO WASH MY BODY! COUNT ON THE FIRE TO SANCTIFY MY BODY! I have brought about the DIVISIONS to SEPARATE the WHEAT from the CHAFF. My body will be STRONG through the judgments - OR - they will perish. REPENT NOW OF THE HATRED TOWARDS YOUR FELLOW BROTHER OR SISTER! REPENT FOR THE WORDS SAID IN ANGER TOWARDS THEM! REPENT NOW! FOR THE JUDGMENTS HAVE BEGUN - AND I WILL CONTINUE THE DIVISIONS UNTIL I HAVE ONE!!

Amen. Lord Jesus

Let's compare Passover with the Feast of New wine

In Passover the death angel will passover your house if you put the blood of the lamb on the door. That is a testimony that you have faith in God to save you.

At the feast of New Wine Joshua and Caleb gave a testimony that we were well able to take the good land because they had faith in God to deliver us. All those who didn't have faith died.

During Passover/The Lord's crucifixion Jesus testified that He had the faith in the resurrection. He was the real Joshua.

He also said that He would not drink it again until He drinks anew with us. We are the Gentiles which Caleb typifies.

During the 8th and 9th of Av Moses came down from the mountain and discovered 3,000 Israelites having an orgy as their worship to the God Moloch. The Levites stood up for God and the Moloch worshippers died. Once again, this is similar to Passover where some were redeemed and some died. It is also similar to the feast of unleavened bread. Those that did not keep this feast but were sinful were killed whereas those that did keep this feast became the firstfruits of the resurrection to God.

Passover was the start of the year for the Jews, it became their new "first month". Likewise the feast of New Wine became the start of the year for the church. It was our first month.

Jesus said that new wine must go into new wine skins. For two thousand years the church has been the new wine skin to hold the new wine. He also said that new wine will burst old wine skins and sure enough when the new wine was poured out on Pentecost the old religion was burst.

However, during Passover Jesus told us His blood was being poured out for us, that was the wine that we were to drink. We partake of the Lord's body and blood and we are filled with new wine.

The Lord was asked why His disciples didn't fast. He said the day would come when He is taken away from them and then they would fast. That referred to His crucifixion, but it also refers to the 8th and 9th of Av. The 9th of Av is when the Temple is taken away and it is a day of fasting for Israel. The rapture is also when the church is taken away from the earth and then the world will fast. On the 9th of Av you are not permitted to drink, you are not to have any kind of feast, rather it is a day of fasting, and you are not to get married. The Lord said that would be the day of the rapture, it would be like the days of Noah where they were eating, drinking, marrying and giving in marriage until the flood came. The Lord said they would mourn but their mourning would turn to joy describing His death and resurrection as a woman giving birth to a baby. In the same way the New Testament describes the rapture.

Luke vs Mark

Luke 12:57 And why even of yourselves judge ye not what is right? 58 For as thou art going with thine adversary before the magistrate, on the way give diligence to be quit of him; lest haply he drag thee unto the judge, and the judge shall deliver thee to the officer, and the officer shall cast thee into prison. 59 I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou have paid the very last mite.

Wow! This verse is not in the gospel of Mark! The saints who go through the tribulation they are paying the last mite. They were not diligent to judge what is right.

Not in Mark, only in Luke

Luke 6:29 To him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other; and from him that taketh away thy cloak withhold not thy coat also. 30 Give to every one that asketh thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again.

Here is another verse that is not in Mark. Again, the concept is the same, prior to the tribulation you get to embrace this voluntarily, if not you will be forced to embrace it during the tribulation. We know that the point of the Mark of the Beast is to take away all your goods from you and to smite you if you refuse to worship the beast. You had the chance to do this voluntarily but there are many Christians that have compromised with the world. They think they are far wiser than the Jesus freaks who just make all Christians look bad.

Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon hath devoured me,

Nebuchadrezzar is a type of the Antichrist.

34 Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon hath devoured me,

US corporations have devoured the entire world. Our banking system and corporations have made the entire world debtors.

he hath crushed me,

Take a look at these sweat shops making shoes or phones or some other gizmo. The workers work six days a week like slave labor.

he hath made me an empty vessel,

They squeeze out the last drop from these countries, they get tax breaks and all kinds of incentives and once they have emptied them they pick up and move to another country to do the same to them.

he hath swallowed me up like a dragon, he hath filled his belly with my delicates,


Look at Walmart, all that stuff is made in China or some other country. The US has filled its belly with their delicates.

he hath cast me out.

Then to keep these countries in line the US puts sanctions on them. That is why they are rebelling with BRICS.

35 The violence done to me and to my flesh be upon Babylon, shall the inhabitant of Zion say; and my blood upon the inhabitants of Chaldea, shall Jerusalem say.

The Lord is going to turn the tables on the US.

36 Therefore thus saith the Lord; Behold, I will plead thy cause, and take vengeance for thee; and I will dry up her sea, and make her springs dry.

Our sea is the US dollar reserve currency status. That will be dried up by BRICS. Our springs were our great University system with the science and engineering. That will become dry.

I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter

Jeremiah 51:37 And Babylon shall become heaps, a dwelling place for dragons, an astonishment, and an hissing, without an inhabitant.

Heaps is like a pile of rubble, think of towns abandoned near Chernobyl, or buildings blown to bits in Lebanon and Iraq. A dwelling place for dragons, that is the lair under the mountain where the dragon sits on the gold. Think of a Cartel boss sitting in an underground bunker. So the description here is a cross between the worst parts of Detroit and the worst parts of the Medellin Cartel. An astonishment is the reaction the rest of the world has when they see how far the US has fallen. A hissing is the sound of people talking about how the US got what they deserved.

38 They shall roar together like lions: they shall yell as lions' whelps.

The US is going to become a jungle, a very scary jungle.

39 In their heat I will make their feasts, and I will make them drunken, that they may rejoice, and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the Lord.

The US is being put to sleep. Stupid TV for stupid people, toys for rich people, all kinds of ways in which they feed their flesh.

40 I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams with he goats.

Imagine you are proud, arrogant, and feel like you are the ruler of the world only to discover at the very last moment you are simply rams and he goats that were fattened for the slaughter.

This is in Matthew and Luke, but not in Mark

Luke 16:13 No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

Here is another verse that is in both Matthew and Luke but not in Mark. In Luke the believers have the choice, in Mark they don't. Why did many believers not get raptured prior to the tribulation, because they tried to serve two masters.

Before the tribulation the Christians have the choice to serve God or mammon. During the tribulation the Christians don't. If they serve mammon they lose their salvation. Likewise with the Jews, they also have this choice.

How could the US be taken?

Jeremiah 51:41 How is Sheshach taken! and how is the praise of the whole earth surprised! how is Babylon become an astonishment among the nations!

42 The sea is come up upon Babylon: she is covered with the multitude of the waves thereof.


With all of our technical advances, all of our weapons systems, all of our satellites, how could the US be taken by Russia, Iran, N. Korea and Venezuela?

With poseidon missiles, they are shot out of submarines and a nuclear bomb detonates to set off a tidal wave 500 feet high or higher. These waves devastate the entire coastline of the US from Maine to Florida, around to Texas and up the California coast to Seatle.

Pretty much everything within five miles of the coast will be critically impacted. Power will go down, houses, cars, buildings and roads demolished. And the water will be radioactive so all survivors will become refugees. 65% of the US population lives within five miles of the coast. All our ports are on the coast, all our naval bases, the Pentagon, NYC, NYSE, Miami, Boston, Philadelphia, Houston, LA, Seatle, etc.

It will not be immediately obvious who did this and within five minutes the country will be in total chaos and disarray.

43 Her cities are a desolation, a dry land, and a wilderness, a land wherein no man dwelleth, neither doth any son of man pass thereby.

Suitcase nukes will also be detonated. The result of this is a nationwide collapse of the electric grid. All of that happens within five minutes.

As a result the cities are a desolation. Those on the coast, and the ones targeted by the suitcase nukes. These smaller nukes will destroy a ten block radius, but the radiation and dust will be in a much larger area so that no one will want to live or work anywhere near downtown.

The spoilers shall come unto her from the north

Jeremiah 51:44 And I will punish Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he hath swallowed up: and the nations shall not flow together any more unto him: yea, the wall of Babylon shall fall.

Babylon like the US refers to a melting pot of nations. God is putting a stop to this. For my whole life there has been a separation between the US and the rest of the world. I remember hearing about "big American cars" and had no idea what they were referring to until I went to England and saw tiny three wheeled cars. There was a brother who was Chinese who would marvel at the big American supermarkets. That separation was God's blessing on this nation, but the rapture removes that completely from the US.

45 My people, go ye out of the midst of her, and deliver ye every man his soul from the fierce anger of the Lord.

My people refers to the people of God. You need to come out of the midst of Babylon. For example, come out of the midst of the Grammies, that is Satanic. Yesterday I heard a number of people blacklisted by Hollywood telling you that all of Hollywood is Satanic. Come out of the midst of all those drugs and befuddling practices in the US. Think about professional sports like the NFL and NBA, it is all idol worship, come out of the midst of that. Then what about these mega pastors preaching the prosperity gospel, come out of the midst of that. I have heard of people who have trouble finding a good, bible believing church. It is actually not that hard to do. First, do they have a large congregation of thousands of people? I would avoid that one. Do they have a powerful multimedia empire? I'd avoid that. I would avoid any that seem to have a lot of money, and instead look for one that seems to have nothing but their worship. You can still find scammers down in this area as well, but it is far more obvious. Is every key person in the "church" a family member, cousin, uncle, Aunt of the Pastor? If so avoid that, it is simply a tax dodge. Does this relatively small group have only one person they listen to, the "apostle"? Avoid them, that is a cult. If they think they are rich, or if they think they have the special message or if they think they are slick with their tax dodge, avoid them. On the other hand if they don't pretend to have anything other than Jesus Christ, then you have found a home.

46 And lest your heart faint, and ye fear for the rumour that shall be heard in the land; a rumour shall both come one year, and after that in another year shall come a rumour, and violence in the land, ruler against ruler.

We are living in a time of great rumours. We hear threats of nuclear war everyday and we hear rumours about the pandemic and the vaccine every day. This is fear porn, come out from listening to the Main stream media.

47 Therefore, behold, the days come, that I will do judgment upon the graven images of Babylon: and her whole land shall be confounded, and all her slain shall fall in the midst of her.


Graven images can refer to our money, it can also refer to company logos. The US dollar will collapse, the US stock exchange will collapse, we are looking at the greatest heavyweight fight in human history and God is going to send the US to the canvas with a devastating combination.

48 Then the heaven and the earth, and all that is therein, shall sing for Babylon: for the spoilers shall come unto her from the north, saith the Lord.

Think how specific that is, and yet we have millions of illegal immigrants coming from the South. Those are not "the spoilers". Jeremiah compares them to locusts and caterpillars and horses. We were told that we would be surrounded, it is an alliance of a number of countries, and first we will be hit with these huge waves going over the land. But then when all that is done we get hit with these ICBMs from the North, over the North pole or even fired from submarines at the North pole.

Suppose you were designing a defense system for the US. You don't want to attack the wrong country, so what do you do? If my satellite sees the missile taking off from Russia I fire at Russia, if I see it coming from China I attack China. At the outset there is a lot of confusion, the fog of war. So where did the tsunamis come from? You have submarines firing nuclear torpedos, but what country are they from? Then you have suitcase nukes, what country are they from? Then you have submarines at the North Pole firing missiles, what country are they from? All of this takes place within a single hour, within five minutes the coastlines are all wiped out and your entire electric grid is down, and you now have to hand off the command and control to someone else, while not sure where the attack is from. This is how Babylon has operated, they befuddle others, they have false flags, they hide in the weeds, they clean you out with the left hand while patting you on the back with the right and pretending to be your ally. As you have done it will be done to you.

This word is for the nations

He says this is what they do in remembrance of what happened to them. It is a national day of mourning. But Paul says that this is a shadow of what is to come.

Think of that, what can it be that is to come that will elicit this day of mourning, not for Israel, but for the whole world. Paul's word is not for the Jews, He has the gospel for the nations.

I am sounding the alarm

On Pearl Harbor Radar picked up the Japanese airplanes 50 minutes before they struck pearl harbor. That would have been enough time to get every airplane up off the ground, every gunner at his post with the guns loaded, and every ship up and running. On average it takes a destroyer 30 minutes to power up and leave the harbor. If the warning had been given 50 minutes ahead of time the US would have destroyed the Japanese on day 1. All their bombers would have been destroyed, the entire air force and navy could have then attacked those aircraft carriers. Sounding the alarm would have saved thousands of lives that day, shortened the war tremendously, perhaps not having to use the nuclear bombs. But the officer in charge thought it was more likely that the radar was picking up a number of commercial airplanes. Think how stupid that is. If he had sounded the alarm and the planes taking off from the airfield had flown towards the Japanese they would have spotted them in 20-25 minutes. As a result all the destroyers that had powered up would still have time to leave the harbor. Meanwhile our airforce would intercept them and fight them 20 minutes from Pearl harbor. They took off so far from their ships that they didn't have enough fuel for a dogfight. The bombers were loaded down with heavy bombs and would not have been able to avoid fighters. This would have been a stunning and overwhelming victory for the US. Meanwhile if this was a false alarm he would have known before any ships left the harbor, and it would have been a "drill" for 30 minutes at which point they could turn off the alarm. People would have made fun of him, but he would have been following his orders and this was during a heightened threat of war. This is personal for me, my dad was living on Pearl Harbor, he was 12, his house was 100 yards from the Arizona. A japanese plane crash landed in front of his house, shrapnel went into the head board of his parents bed.

My point is the watchmen are afraid they will be called "crazy" that is nothing compared to the loss should they not do their job.

This doesn't mean we have to run around the streets with sandwich boards saying the tribulation is about to start. The soldier watching the radar reports to his commanding officer and it is his duty to sound the alarm. That doesn't mean he has to warn LA, or Honolulu, he simply sounds the alarm for the base. Meanwhile the soldiers man their posts, regardless of what that post is. Everyone has a job to do. I am sounding the alarm.

We are three days from 9th of Av, you have been warned.

Sound The Alarm!!! Jesus Is Coming!!!

(He posted this while I was typing my warning. I saw this post after I posted my warning. Also the Lord changed the title, I was planning on calling that post something very different.)

The sword is coming upon the land. Jesus died for you. Get right with Jesus
