COP28 ends on the 7th of December, at that time (though it might be the 12th of December) I think King Charles is scheduled to give closing remarks and I suspect that is when he will declare "peace and security". I am watching this.

Also, I saw a number of strikes by the IDF on Damascus. They are obliterating Hamas in Gaza, and decisively defeating Hezbollah in Lebanon, which they are cutting off from Syria. This means that Iran will be forced to focus their attack on Israel from Damascus. I suspect that Damascus becoming a ruinous heap is the match that lights the fuse resulting in "sudden destruction".

I also expect that the destruction of Damascus will lead to protests worldwide reminding us of the days of Lot and the mob outside his house. I am watching these protests as well.

I believe that trying to stop Israel from raising the tabernacle of David is one of the motives of this war and they know Israel will begin this spring if they don't stop them now, hence this is do or die for Iran.

I also believe that BRICS is a major factor, a war over who has the world's reserve currency US or BRICS. Their currency goes into effect on January 1, so destroying the US prior to January 1 is also a major goal of the present conflict.

30 types of the Rapture (part 1)

A type is a picture and these 30 give us a variety of pictures of the rapture, instead of looking at one I wanted to look at all 30 because they will give us a giant mural of what is going on at the time of the rapture.

1. Early morning — Jesus resurrection was early morning, but Lazarus not so much, likewise with Elijah and with Enoch, who knows what time “he was not”.

2. Esther and Mordecai being given a place to rule is a type of the rapture. Therefore prior to the rapture we would be seeing these two praying and working to expose Haman and take a stand against the insurrection. There is a strong correlation with the story of Abigail. Esther and Mordecai are more “political” whereas Abigail and the servant are more focused on the church as the house of God.

3. Abigail being awake and preventing King David the “thief in the night” from bringing wrongdoing down on their own head is a type of the rapture. The husband is the head of the house, and so Nabal had rejected King David. Imagine a country that the Lord had protected and caused to thrive and become rich yet that country’s leadership rejects Jesus and rejects giving Jesus honor. The servants know it is true, and they talk to Abigail because they know no one can talk to the fools leading this great house. Abigail sees the coming destruction and goes and brings King David a gift to turn him from His fierce wrath, as a result Abigail is “taken” but Nabal dies after waking up from his drunken stupor.

4. Lot fleeing Sodom for the wilderness is a type of the rapture and those who are left behind but delivered from destruction. Lot was a righteous man, but this shows how corrosive and destructive Sodom was. You can’t live in the midst of Sodom without it corroding you. Abraham lived in a tent outside of the cities. Think of TV and movies, how vile and filthy and violent they are. When you compare them with much older movies like “Gone with the Wind”, “Casablanca” and “It’s a Wonderful Life” the difference is stunning. Gone with the Wind is a war movie just like “Saving Private Ryan” but the violence and death in Saving Private Ryan is much more graphic. Casablanca is a love story without any sex scenes. It’s a wonderful life shows the corrosive effect of banks and the need to stand against them, it deals with a dark subject of suicide. Compare that with “The Hunger Games” which also talks about the corrosive effect of “the capital” and the need to stand against them with a much darker subject of “kill or be killed”.

5. Noah being delivered before the flood is a type of those who are raptured before the tribulation. What we see is a 500+ years of revelation concerning a coming flood, prophecies like that of Methuselah warning about the flood, a few people, that is 8, building an ark and filling it with animals, preaching the gospel for 120 years and being mocked and ridiculed. It also shows a picture of the world being oblivious to the coming flood and destruction.

6. Ruth is a type of the Gentile bride being taken by the Lord. This book highlights the two different ways that people will read the Bible, one will use the Bible to condemn others and others will use the Bible to save others. Ruth is a moabitess and you can use that to condemn her, Ruth is also the widow of an Israelite and you can use that to save her. You can read the Bible from a selfish perspective of how to protect your inheritance or you can read the Bible from an empathetic perspective on how to save others. You can see others on the surface as being cursed or you can see their heart that they are seeking God and His righteousness.

7. In the genealogy of Jesus Mary is a type of those who are raptured, the other four women give us a fuller view of who Mary is. Tamar — this woman was desperate for the inheritance. The story was that after two sons of Judah dies he is afraid to give her his third son. In those days a widow without a son would become a prostitute and it is clear that Judah believes there is something evil about Tamar. the Bible tells you that the sons were evil and that is why they died, but “if you lie down with dogs you get up with flees” is true. Tamar is associated with them and tarred with the same brush. So when she gets pregnant it is the proof that Judah needs to say she is evil. He is going to put her to death when she reveals that he is the father. He is the evil one. Rachab is a prostitute in Jericho. But she sees God’s judgement, she fears, and so with great risk to her own life she does what is right. She reminds me of Oscar Schindler, a businessman in Nazi Germany who realized the Nazi’s were evil and so at great risk to his own life he saved the Jews alive. Schindler’s list is a list of people he saved alive and after a generation it was equal to a small city. Ruth demonstrates that the Bible is not ruthless. And the wife of Uriah, this is how Bathsheba would have been treated. She is portrayed as an evil, adulterous woman who seduced King David, committed adultery and had her husband killed. The prototypical woman who “sleeps her way to the top”. But the truth is very different. She was sunbathing on the roof of her house, perhaps thinking she couldn’t be seen by anyone but not thinking about the palace, a little naive, but there is no hint that she was cunning or deceitful. The king calls for her and she has no option of refusing to go. Her naïveté puts her into a terrible position where she is forced to sleep with David and thus becomes the “dragon lady” forever after. However, this may have helped her tremendously in raising Solomon. She may have taught him to be far more alert and aware of others and the risks they pose, and she was probably shunned by everyone at the palace which probably helped her focus on raising Solomon. All four of these women can be seen in Mary who explains to us “why” it has to be this way. If God is going to be born of a virgin then she is going to painted as a promiscuous woman, something she isn’t. All four were viewed as sinners and ostracized, but God knows the hearts and they had to choose that path in order to follow the Lord. Like Ruth said “your God will be my God”.

Ten different people, showing us a variety of situations that the righteous will be in at the time of the rapture.

30 types of the Rapture (part 2)

8. The first Passover was a type of the rapture, they eat it in the night and they leave in the morning. Look at this picture, we have the ten plagues that are destroying Egypt's economy, the advisors are telling Pharaoh that the economy is in shambles at the time of the Passover. The Jews are separated from the Egyptians, they live in their own part of town, they have blood on their doors, they are all locked in their homes at night eating the Passover as the angel of death goes throughout the city. It is like an eery horror movie as one family after another learns their first born is dead and starts to cry and wail. This could be described as "the thief in the night". Also during the ten plagues the magicians are performing a counterfeit, like the Apostasy, trying to debunk the speaking of God through Moses. Also Moses and Aaron can be viewed as the two witnesses. Moses was rejected by the Israelis but now returns to rescue them. So you can see the tribulation saints and the rescue of Israel all in this story.

9. Aaron’s budding rod was a type of the rapture. There is a debate over who is the leader and who really speaks for God, so God comes up with a test. Each of the twelve families provide a rod that they will then put in the tabernacle overnight and the one that buds, that one is the one that God has chosen. Once again you see a variety of people representing and speaking for God, they are in rivalry with one another and they are trying to discredit Aaron, but this resurrection event shows who God has chosen. This reminds us of what Jesus told the church in Philadelphia that He would make those of the synagogue of Satan to come and worship at their feet and confess that God is truly among them.

10. The birth of John the Baptist described in Luke is also a type of the rapture. Zacharias means "remembered of Jehovah". The name reminds us of Zechariah whose prophecy convicted Israel of being stained with innocent blood that they needed to repent of. Elizabeth means "oath of God", she also is a daughter of Aaron, so this is a priestly family. They were both righteous, they were both walking in all the commandments and ordinances but they were barren. Children are a blessing from God, being barren is therefore equated with being cursed. The word in Luke is that John will go before the Lord to turn many to the Lord their God. That is what the rapture will do, it will result in a great revival. They were going to name the child Zacharias but God calls him "John" which means "Jehovah is a gracious giver". If you were to see the rapture and be left behind you might think this means "I am guilty of blood, I need to repent" but when you think that God's response is "Jehovah is a gracious giver", He will give you the price for your sins.

68 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people, 69 And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David; 70 As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began: 71 That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us; 72 To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant; 73 The oath which he sware to our father Abraham, 74 That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear, 75 In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.

This will be the response of the believers when they see the rapture.

76 And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways; 77 To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins, 78 Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the dayspring from on high hath visited us, 79 To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.

When the rapture takes place the two witnesses are then revealed and this is their mission.

11. Solomon’s coronation with Bathsheba as a type of the church in Philadelphia is a type of the rapture. A rebellion is taking place with Adonijah, a type of the Antichrist who made the proclamation that "I will be King". There are multiple pictures of the rapture that all point to an insurrection taking place at the same time. This is one example, Esther is another, the story of Hanukkah is a third.

12. Enoch was a type of those who were raptured. He was taken when he was 365 years old, a clear reference to the Gentile calendar. He was born and raptured on the same day as Shavuot. Enoch walked with God and was not, Shavuot points to the Bible, the word of God given to us, particularly the Torah, and 365 points to this walk being daily.

13. Lazarus being raised from the dead is a type of the rapture. Prior to the rapture the dead in Christ rise. Lazarus was raised prior to Jesus triumphal entry into Jerusalem. This is a picture that the rapture is the Lord's triumphal entry into the 70th week. Lazarus is the greek form of Eleazar, the servant that went and brought Rebekah to Isaac. The name means "whom God helps", it is not of us, but of God that we can run this race.

14. During Noah’s flood when the tops of the mountains were seen is a type of the rapture. Noah's flood depicts the judgement and the tribulation. But covering the earth with the waters also signifies the earth being covered with the Gentiles. The mountain tops appearing is the rapture which causes the word of life to be revealed to the entire world.

The Antichrist

https://www.preciousseed.org/articles/the-antichrist-his-aliases-and-activities/

Having already considered the personality of the great political dictator of the last “week” – the coming prince – we now take a look at his sinister collaborator in the religious sphere, the apostate king of the Jews, ruling from Jerusalem in Palestine. Together these two prominent personages form an unholy alliance, and they work hand-in-glove during the period of the great tribulation.

From the account of this vile impostor, the second beast in Revelation 13. 11, arising from the earth (or, the land), it would seem that this Jewish king will be slightly later in arriving on the scene than the Roman supremo, whose vicegerent he will prove to be, exercising control as the religious dictator over a very wide area of the habitable world.

Along with Satan, their invisible overlord, they form a triumvirate of evil – a crude counterfeit of the Holy Trinity – of the devil’s devising, for he, not being an originator, but merely an imitator, a master counterfeiter, seeks to emulate the true God – one God in three Persons.

In the interest of clarity and space, it will be helpful to condense the Scriptural references to the antichrist and his evil doings, under the following six captions:

(1) His person – As king of the
Jews he is surely himself an authentic, albeit an apostate, member of Israel’s race, Dan. 11. 36-39; John 5. 43.

(2)His presentations – Some eight designations are employed in the Bible to provide a composite picture of this evil man and the enormity of his sinful ways and works:

(i) He is the wilful king, Dan. 11. 36. It is important to observe that Daniel 11 gives us a history of the kings of the north (Syria) – the Seleucidae – and the kings of the south (Egypt) – the Ptolemies – down to Antiochus Epiphanes (B.C. 164). This sequence of history ends with Daniel 11. 31, and verses 32-35 treat of the period from the time of the Maccabees down to the “time of the end”. Then verse 36 introduces the antichrist, as typified by the wilful king, and from that stage to the end of Daniel 12, we have a prophetic record of what shall befall Daniel’s people, the Jews, in the latter days.

(ii) He is the “worthless shepherd”, Zech. 11.17 r.v.

(iii) He is the “false prophet”, Rev. 19. 20.

(iv) He is the “man of sin”,2 Thess. 2. 3.

(v) He is the “son of perdition”, 2 Thess. 2. 3.

(vi) He is the “lawless one”, 2 Thess. 2. 8 r.v.

(vii) He is “the antichrist”, 1 John 2. 22 r.v; John 5. 43.

(viii) He is the two-horned beast out of the earth, the second beast, Rev. 13. 11.

What a series of aliases is this, branding him as a character even more intensely evil than his political ally, the blasphemous head of the Revived Roman Empire.

(3) His pretence – The arrant blasphemy of the antichrist reaches its zenith when he declares, I am God, 2 Thess. 2. 4. Beyond this in terms of awful blasphemy it would seem impossible to go. Adam’s ambition was to be “as God”; antichrist’s ambition is to show “himself that he is God” – fallen Adam’s fantasy fully developed ! This follows Satan’s ambition in Isaiah 14. 14.

(4) His presumption – This man of sin claims worship for himself, and also sets up an image of the Roman prince in the temple precincts in Jerusalem, commanding the Jews and all others within the sphere of his power to worship it. Rev. 13. 12-15.

(5) His punishment – His punishment (as in the case of the Roman beast) will be unique, for he will be despatched directly to the lake of fire from Armageddon’s battlefield, without passing through physical death at all, Rev. 19. 20. (Consider this intriguing contrast. Two men in the Old Testament were translated to heaven without dying – Enoch and Elijah. And two men in the New Testament will be consigned to the burning brimstone lake without leaving their bodies – the beast and the false prophet, Rev. 19. 20. They will enter the second death without passing through the first, so extremely heinous will be the manner of their sinning.)

(6) His precursors – There are three characters in the Scriptures whose outstanding features mark them out as forerunners of the man of sin:

(i) Adonizedek in Joshua 10. 1-5. This king was determined to defend Jerusalem against God. Such will be the defiant attitude and action of the last usurper of David’s throne.

(ii) Adonijah in 1 Kings 1. 5-6 was a man who, inflated with pride, made the pronouncement, “/ will be king”. The antichrist likewise exalts himself as the wilful king, Dan. 11. 36.

(iii) King Herod in Acts 12. 22 is perhaps the closest representation of the man of sin, Israel’s apostate king. Herod, persecutor of the godly, accepted worship of himself, and came under the summary judgment of God, meeting his appalling end by being eaten of worms. Here is a foreshadowing of the antichrist, almost in his full delineations.

To complete this brief sketch of the second beast of Revelation 13, it will be appropriate to include a few further features of the man it symbolizes:

(1) Its source – It arises out of the earth (or the land, perhaps Palestine) suggestive of more stable conditions existing then in the civilized nations, in contradistinction to the turbulent waves of the sea, from which the first beast emerges. Does this imply that the king of the Jews is ensconced on the throne of the Israeli state by general consent, in a regular democratic way, and accepted by the mass of the people?

(2) Its simulation – Satan, as already remarked, is the great counterfeiter, and the lamb-like beast of Revelation 13 is his supreme attempt to simulate the Son of God. The two-horned young lamb is an impious caricature of the second Person of the Trinity, Satan’s supposed masterstroke to emulate the Lamb of God. But where – as Satan’s lamb, his spurious messiah, has two horns, God’s holy Lamb has seven, 5. 6, betokening the plenitude of power that belongs to Christ alone, “All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth”, Matt. 28. 18.

(3) Its speech – The lamb-like beast cannot conceal the moral evil of its real nature. It speaks like a dragon. In appearance it initially deceives the people, but soon displays the innate ferocity of its character. Inspired by Satan (himself the fiery red dragon), the antichrist speaks like a fire-breathing dragon.

(4) Its secular power – Positionally the second beast is subordinate to the first beast of Revelation 13; but in practice he exercises all the power of the first beast, wielding authority over a world-area reaching beyond the territorial boundaries of the western confederacy of nations.

For apostate Christendom as well as idolatrous Judaism will be compelled by the antichrist to worship both himself and the image of the Roman dictator. (A slight example of those two arch-criminals has perhaps been seen during the second world war in the persons of Hitler, the ambitious dictator, the lying Goebbels, his minister of propaganda in the evil Nazi regime which plunged the world into global warfare.)

(5) His satanic power – The anti-christ, moreover, is no ordinary man. He is the man of sin, energized by Satan, working great signs, such as calling down fire from heaven, as if to match Elijah’s impressive miracle, thus deceiving the astounded spectators by his acts. His coming is “after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders”, 2 Thess. 2. 9. Contrast the Lord’s case, Acts 2. 22.

Now, as confusion frequently arises regarding the respective roles of the two beasts, it will be beneficial for the sake of readers who are new to the prophetic content of the Word, to tabulate a number of differences which Scripture indicates between the wild beasts of Revelation 13:

The first beast is from the sea; the second from the earth (or, land).

The first beast is a political dictator; the second a religious one.

The first beast has 10 horns, the second has 2 horns.

The first beast is of Gentile origin; the second an apostate Jew.

The first beast is predominant in civil and military affairs; the second is conspicuous for his sinister and cunning work in destroying the souls of men.

The first beast chronologically appears on the scene before the second.

The first beast is the imperial head of the Revived Roman Empire, whose centre is probably Rome; the second is the king of the apostate Jewish state, ruling from Jerusalem.

One other important distinguishing feature is that the second beast performs miracles; whereas it is nowhere stated that the first beast does. This is a salient point in determining the second beast’s identity as the anti-christ, the man of sin.

Why COP28 is significant event

11 Reasons Why He & This Could Be It Hopefully Rapture Soon

Coronation of Solomon and COP28, part 1

1Kings 1:5 Then Adonijah the son of Haggith exalted himself, saying, I will be king: and he prepared him chariots and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.

Adonijah "exalts himself" and he is the son of Haggith meaning "festive". This is pride raised to the highest power. Self exaltation, pompous, declaring "I will be king", all these are the temptations that Lucifer fell into.

6 And his father had not displeased him at any time in saying, Why hast thou done so? and he also was a very goodly man; and his mother bare him after Absalom.

This is a recipe on how to make a sociopath. His mother was a non Israelite taken captive during war, interesting Adonijah's birth would be "after Absalom" another one who thought to usurp the throne.

7 And he conferred with Joab the son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest: and they following Adonijah helped him.

So he gets the help of both the governments and the religious leaders. Just like Agenda 2030 refers to ambassadors to nations and COP28 refers to religious organizations and NGOs.

8 But Zadok the priest, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and Nathan the prophet, and Shimei, and Rei, and the mighty men which belonged to David, were not with Adonijah.

Nice description of those who go to the coronation of Solomon. You have priests, prophets and mighty men of David. Also, Bathsheba represents the church in Philadelphia.

9 And Adonijah slew sheep and oxen and fat cattle by the stone of Zoheleth, which is by Enrogel, and called all his brethren the king's sons, and all the men of Judah the king's servants:

Again, Agenda 2030 and COP28 were called by King Charles

10 But Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, and the mighty men, and Solomon his brother, he called not.

He calls everyone, Catholics, Jews and Muslims, but not the Evangelical Christians.

11 Wherefore Nathan spake unto Bathsheba the mother of Solomon, saying, Hast thou not heard that Adonijah the son of Haggith doth reign, and David our lord knoweth it not?

Nathan here represents the watchmen, and Bathsheba represents the church in Philadelphia. They are the ones who keep the word of the Lord's patience.

12 Now therefore come, let me, I pray thee, give thee counsel, that thou mayest save thine own life, and the life of thy son Solomon.

They are warning that the fix is in to destroy Evangelical Christians. Evangelicals believe that Jesus is the way to the Father and that no man comes unto the Father but by Him. It makes it hard for the AntiChrist to claim to be the Messiah. Jews and Muslims believe the Messiah has not come yet, so it is easy to get them, the Catholics don't care, just so long as they are at the head of the table.

13 Go and get thee in unto king David, and say unto him, Didst not thou, my lord, O king, swear unto thine handmaid, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne? why then doth Adonijah reign?

The watchmen tell the saints to pray to the Lord concerning His coming, His kingdom, and His promises.

14 Behold, while thou yet talkest there with the king, I also will come in after thee, and confirm thy words.

The watchmen are speaking a word to confirm everything concerning COP28 and all the other events taking place that are fulfilling prophecy.

15 And Bathsheba went in unto the king into the chamber: and the king was very old; and Abishag the Shunammite ministered unto the king.

Abishag is the woman in the Song of Solomon. What a great picture, you have a very old religion with the Lord Jesus now being 2,000 years old, Bathsheba is keeping the word of His patience, and Abishag represents the bride of Christ that is about to be raptured. Think of this as two separate views, a worldly view sees David and Bathsheba as very old, but a heavenly view sees Abishag as the beautiful Shunamite in Song of Solomon.

16 And Bathsheba bowed, and did obeisance unto the king. And the king said, What wouldest thou? 17 And she said unto him, My lord, thou swarest by the Lord thy God unto thine handmaid, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne.

Amen, Lord you have promised that You would reign as king and not King Charles and this pantheistic worship of mother nature.

18 And now, behold, Adonijah reigneth; and now, my lord the king, thou knowest it not:

Lord Jesus he became king earlier this year, we have already had Agenda 2030 and now we are having COP28. The entire world is moving to the Beast system which is rising out of the sea.

19 And he hath slain oxen and fat cattle and sheep in abundance, and hath called all the sons of the king, and Abiathar the priest, and Joab the captain of the host: but Solomon thy servant hath he not called.

Yes, they can eat meat, but they want to outlaw anyone else, we are seeing them slaughter cows, chicken and pigs frequently and often to push inflation and bring about a famine.

20 And thou, my lord, O king, the eyes of all Israel are upon thee, that thou shouldest tell them who shall sit on the throne of my lord the king after him.

Amen. Lord Jesus the whole world is waking up to the imminent return, and they are looking to You concerning the rapture and who you would choose.

21 Otherwise it shall come to pass, when my lord the king shall sleep with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon shall be counted offenders.

Amen, if King Charles has his way all Evangelicals will be counted as offenders.

22 And, lo, while she yet talked with the king, Nathan the prophet also came in. 23 And they told the king, saying, Behold Nathan the prophet. And when he was come in before the king, he bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground. 24 And Nathan said, My lord, O king, hast thou said, Adonijah shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne?

Lord Jesus did you say that King Charles would reign after You? I thought Jesus was getting an eternal throne.

Coronation of Solomon and COP28, part 2

25 For he is gone down this day, and hath slain oxen and fat cattle and sheep in abundance, and hath called all the king's sons, and the captains of the host, and Abiathar the priest; and, behold, they eat and drink before him, and say, God save king Adonijah. 26 But me, even me thy servant, and Zadok the priest, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and thy servant Solomon, hath he not called.

How is it that all this is going on with COP28 and the Evangelicals are being left out and not invited?

27 Is this thing done by my lord the king, and thou hast not shewed it unto thy servant, who should sit on the throne of my lord the king after him?

Lord Jesus, all things are done under your sovereignty and no one is permitted to do anything unless you allow it. So is it Your will that King Charles would reign over the earth?

28 Then king David answered and said, Call me Bathsheba. And she came into the king's presence, and stood before the king.

29 And the king sware, and said, As the Lord liveth, that hath redeemed my soul out of all distress,

30 Even as I sware unto thee by the Lord God of Israel, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne in my stead; even so will I certainly do this day.

Yep, for all you looking for the day of the rapture, it is "this day".

31 Then Bathsheba bowed with her face to the earth, and did reverence to the king, and said, Let my lord king David live for ever.

32 And king David said, Call me Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada. And they came before the king.

33 The king also said unto them, Take with you the servants of your lord, and cause Solomon my son to ride upon mine own mule, and bring him down to Gihon:

34 And let Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him there king over Israel: and blow ye with the trumpet, and say, God save king Solomon.

There is the sound of the trumpet!

35 Then ye shall come up after him, that he may come and sit upon my throne; for he shall be king in my stead: and I have appointed him to be ruler over Israel and over Judah.

36 And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada answered the king, and said, Amen: the Lord God of my lord the king say so too.

37 As the Lord hath been with my lord the king, even so be he with Solomon, and make his throne greater than the throne of my lord king David.

Hallelujah! All power and glory to Jesus Christ, king of Kings!

38 So Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites, and the Pelethites, went down, and caused Solomon to ride upon king David's mule, and brought him to Gihon.

39 And Zadok the priest took an horn of oil out of the tabernacle, and anointed Solomon. And they blew the trumpet; and all the people said, God save king Solomon.

40 And all the people came up after him, and the people piped with pipes, and rejoiced with great joy, so that the earth rent with the sound of them.

All the fat cats and the elites are in their little party, oblivious to what the whole earth sees and rejoices in. The rapture will be a worldwide event that causes the earth to rent with the sound of them.

41 And Adonijah and all the guests that were with him heard it as they had made an end of eating. And when Joab heard the sound of the trumpet, he said, Wherefore is this noise of the city being in an uproar?

COP28 is slicing up the earth to be eaten by these elites.

42 And while he yet spake, behold, Jonathan the son of Abiathar the priest came; and Adonijah said unto him, Come in; for thou art a valiant man, and bringest good tidings.

43 And Jonathan answered and said to Adonijah, Verily our lord king David hath made Solomon king.

44 And the king hath sent with him Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites, and the Pelethites, and they have caused him to ride upon the king's mule:

45 And Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet have anointed him king in Gihon: and they are come up from thence rejoicing, so that the city rang again. This is the noise that ye have heard.

The rapture pulls the rug out from under all these arrogant, pompous elites who rejected Jesus as King. The stone that the builders rejected has become the head of the corner.

46 And also Solomon sitteth on the throne of the kingdom.

47 And moreover the king's servants came to bless our lord king David, saying, God make the name of Solomon better than thy name, and make his throne greater than thy throne. And the king bowed himself upon the bed.

48 And also thus said the king, Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, which hath given one to sit on my throne this day, mine eyes even seeing it.

Yes, your little COP28 at the UAE is a very poor counterfeit to what the coronation of Jesus is and the rapture and the wedding feast.

49 And all the guests that were with Adonijah were afraid, and rose up, and went every man his way.

50 And Adonijah feared because of Solomon, and arose, and went, and caught hold on the horns of the altar.

30 types of the Rapture (part 3)

15. Esther and Abigail are types of the raptured bride and Haman and Nabal are types of the people ruling at the time. Nabal means "a worthless fellow" or a "fool". Imagine the person running the "house" at the time of the rapture is a "worthless fool". If the US were the country established as a Christian nation where God has put his name this could refer to the Apostasy, and it also could refer to the government. Basically we would expect to see a few things, they are feasting while also rejecting Jesus who protected and blessed this nation. The people running the country would be fools, those running the apostasy would be "worthless fellows". In the book of Esther Haman is far more diabolical. He is vain, egotistical, but not a fool. He realizes that Mordecai is his chief opponent and wants to destroy him and not just him but all his people which would be a genocide. He has prepared everything in order to execute all the believers. Mordecai and Esther are the two working to stop him. The rapture is when Mordecai is put on a horse and paraded around town to honor him, the tribulation is when Esther is meeting with the king at two feasts she has prepared and Haman is trying to force her in front of God, the king. Esther gives us the view of the deep state insurrection while Abigail shows us how foolish and stupid the leaders are allowing all this to happen. So look at the President and ask could he be described as a "worthless fellow" or a "fool" and then look at the CIA, DOJ, FBI, and all the alphabet agencies and ask could they be described as a very wicked deep state looking to seize power?

16. Harvest of wheat is an allegory of the rapture. We are told at the time of harvest the wheat is being separated from the tares. The tares have black seeds which are poisonous, and they stand up straight and arrogant. Wheat is bowed in worship with golden grains. Do you see these two groups of people being revealed and separated at the present time?

17. Samson pushing out the pillars is a type of the rapture. Samson was a type of a populist movement to break free of the Philistines. Samson was the strong man who had caused a great deal of trouble to the Philistines who were ruling over God's people. Samson is deceived by Delilah signifying the deep state. They shave his hair, breaking his vow, and causing him to be captured and imprisoned. Kind of like the Stop the Steal rallies which vowed to follow the law, follow the constitution and do everything by the book but then trespassed in the capital, was accused of insurrection, and were imprisoned as January 6th insurrectionists. The January 6th commission paraded "Samson" out to the delight of all in the temple of Baal, but then Samson was able to feel the pillars holding up this false flag event (the 40,000 hours of video of the Capital) and can push the pillars out signifying the rapture.

18. The rapture is likened to a marriage. The wedding practice of the day was a shadow of the rapture. The messengers of the bridegroom sends his messengers ahead which blow the trumpets and announce that the bridegroom is coming (you would expect lots of testimonies on the internet from "watchmen" who are seeing prophecies fulfilled indicating that Jesus is about to return as well as dreams and visions saying the same thing). All those waiting for the Lord wake up, trim their lamps and meet him. This would indicate that the numbers testifying concerning the Lord's coming would increase exponentially, with a whole lot of excitement and lamps lit. This is when you would discover that many believers do not have a personal relationship with the Lord, their vessels are not filled with oil.

19. 7 days before the Day of Atonement the Priest goes into the Temple chamber, a type of the rapture. He changes clothes and stays in the temple chamber to be kept safe for the day of Atonement and also to prepare for the Day of Atonement which is the most involved ceremony. It depicts us being changed in the twinkling of an eye (at sundown) and being caught up to the heavenly chamber during the seven year tribulation.

20. David reigning in Hebron for seven years and six months is also a type of the raptured saints in heaven. Another shadow indicating a "pre tribulation" rapture.

21. Daniel in the Lions den being drawn out is also a type of the rapture. When his three friends are cast into the furnace of fire that indicates the tribulation saints, Daniel is not there, so we assume that his being drawn out of the Lion's den is his rapture. Unlike his three friends Daniel did not take on the Babylonian name. This indicates that he was not influenced to the extent they were. This is similar to Abraham living in a tent while Lot lived in Sodom.

22. Leah is a type of the Gentile bride that is raptured 7 years before Israel.

30 types of the Rapture (part 4)

23. The people who rose from the dead at the time of Jesus’ resurrection are a preview of the rapture with the dead in Christ rising first. Technically not a "type" but forerunners or "first fruit". Hence this was the celebration of the feast of firstfruits. It says that people saw them and they walked around the city so I suspect it will be same at the rapture, People will see the dead in Christ rise before the rapture takes place.

24. Rejected silver refers to those left behind. When you refine silver you melt it, the dross rises to the top because it is less dense and you scoop it off as much as possible. However, when you scoop it off you will get a little bit of silver mixed in with the dross, so you can take all the rejected silver, melt it down and get scoop off the dross and get some silver out of the rejected silver. I believe this is a reference to those left behind during the tribulation.

25. Hanukkah is taken from the word for Enoch, a type of the rapture. The story of Hanukkah is the story of the tribulation with Antiochus Epiphanes being a type of the Antichrist. However, the name Hanukkah is derived from Enoch which was a type of the rapture. Also the tribulation begins with the rapture. So I am not aware of anything in the story of Hanukkah that would signify the rapture, however, the last 8 chapters of 2Corinthians give us the 8 days of light of Hanukkah. So Chapter 5 of 2Corinthians does point to the rapture.

2Corinthians 5:1 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. 2 For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven: 3 If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked. 4 For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life. 5 Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit.

God has given us this desire to be clothed upon with our house from heaven and He has also given us the earnest of the Spirit.

6 Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:
7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight) 8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. 9 Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.

We are not saved by works, but because we are saved we have the fruit of faith, which is the works of the Spirit.

10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.

The rapture is a judgement and being left behind is a judgement, and all believers will have to be judged for the things done in the body. According to Peter Judgement must begin from the house of God which is proof that there must be a pre tribulation rapture.

11 Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences. 12 For we commend not ourselves again unto you, but give you occasion to glory on our behalf, that ye may have somewhat to answer them which glory in appearance, and not in heart.

The world is filled with people who glory in appearance. This is why they will pay $5,000 for a suit, or why Kim Kardashian paid $500,000 for a wedding dress. The rapture will be an occasion to glory on behalf of the apostles, we are the fruit of their ministry...

21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

You have to be made the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus if you are going to be raptured.

26. The transfiguration is a type of the rapture. The transfiguration is one of those things that is most interesting. According to Matthew it was after 6 days that Jesus took Peter, James and John and took them to the mount of transfiguration. Mark also says it was after six days. But Luke says it was about eight days after these sayings. So I think "after six days" may refer to the six days of creation, so "after six thousand years" from God's perspective. But the eighth day is the day you circumcise the first born male and it is the day of resurrection. Also, COP28 has 8 days for their meetings. So this reference may be referring to something else besides 6,000 years. It could refer to those who have been circumcised in their heart, it could refer to the outstanding resurrection, and it may refer to the 8th day of something else, like COP28.

27. The 9th of Av is a type of the restrainer being removed. The restrainer protects the temple of God from being overrun. The temple was destroyed on the 9th of Av.

28. Dividing the waters above from the waters below is the first reference to the rapture. The waters refer to people, specifically the nations. The land refers to Israel. God divided the waters, that is a reference to the rapture. Some will be taken up, others will be left behind. However, in doing that it allows the land to appear, that is Israel. So I don't think we will see the temple (or the tabernacle) erected until after the rapture.

29. Elijah being taken up in fiery chariots is a type of the rapture (Israel refers to one of their military operations as “the Chariots of God”). This may be a fulfillment of prophecy indicating that the rapture will take place when we are taken up in the midst of fiery war. As fire falls on "Sodom" we go up.

30. Jonah being 3 days in the belly of the fish is a sign that is given to the adulterous world to repent 40 days prior to the rapture. (40 signifies a time to test a repentance). I think the BLM protests was the sign given to this adulterous generation of Jesus' return.

A big question is how much longer?

1. The Tabernacle of David. The war in Israel was said to have begun because Hamas didn't want Israel to set up the tabernacle of David and begin the sacrifices again. Therefore they have no choice but to be all in since Israel will be starting the sacrifices again this spring with the Red heifer sacrifice.

2. War will continue to escalate until Damascus is a ruinous heap. This war we are currently witnessing is a proxy war which is described in Psalm 83. Somehow we go from a proxy war to an all out war in Ezekiel 38 with Russia, Iran, and Turkey. If I had to guess the destruction of Damascus will be where we go from a Proxy war to an all out war. Everyday we can see Hamas in Gaza and Hezebollah in Lebanon being shut down, requiring Iran to use their base in Damascus as the launch pad. Since Iran, Turkey and Russia cannot back down, it will continue to escalate until Damascus is turned to rubble.

3. BRICS needs to replace the US dollar as the reserve currency. There is another factor and that is BRICS. About 50% of the world's GDP has made a massive gamble on BRICS which goes into effect January 1, the only way BRICS is a success is if they can seize control of the MidEast security. That means that the Ezekiel 38 war is not simply to stop the tabernacle of David being raised, but also to eliminate Israel/US as the key military power in the Mid East.

I believe these two deadlines indicate that Russia, Iran and Turkey are all in with no intention of peace anytime soon.

4. Pro Palestinian mobs could be provoked to being as violent as what we saw in the days of Lot. Jesus said it would be as the days of Lot and in that scenario we expect to see vicious mobs foaming at the mouth. We have seen mobs of pro Palestine protestors, but not as severe as we saw with Lot. We learned from BLM that you cannot sustain that kind of protesting for more than about six months. They have been going at it for a month, I believe this is a third factor that means all of this needs to be resolved in the next couple of months. If Damascus were destroyed that could be the event that turns these mobs into frenzied violence like we saw in the days of Lot.

5. US Election. It is obvious that Trump will win the election. If they try and steal it you would get caught or you would get a civil war. You can't just cancel an election a month before. They can't cancel it with another pandemic because that would just prove the conspiracy theorists correct and no one is going to buy that. Therefore the only option is WW3 and destroying Damascus could easily be the event that changes the wars in Europe and the Mid East into a World conflagration. I would think they would have to do it before June and probably in the next 3 months.

6. US Debt. If the countries in BRICS were to dump their US bonds when BRICS goes live in January it could cause a collapse of the US banking system and economy. Already we have hundreds of bank branches closing as banks try to weather the higher interest rates. Dumping a trillion dollars of debt on the market could easily cause interest rates to go up dramatically and that would be catastrophic to the US banks, the US dollar, and the US economy. It is complicated but the bottom line is we are paying an interest rate that is far too low, at the very least our interest rate should be higher than the rate of inflation. That would be about 9-10%. If interest rates went up that high then the US banking system would collapse. On the other hand if we don't raise rates the US has to print money to pay debt and our inflation rate will skyrocket also leading to a collapse. Also, there is no way to balance the budget by spending cuts. So we are primed to see a total collapse of the US economy in a matter of weeks or months.

My point is that if we only had one factor we could probably weather this storm, but six factors and it would appear impossible for this to not blow up in the next few months (or weeks or even days).

But then there is point #7

7. Covid Vaccine. The evidence is being released that the US lied and the vaccine is killing people. The pandemic was made in a bioweapons lab that was funded by the US and the vaccine is causing millions of deaths. These two things together are a very good reason why the world would hate the US. When you hate the US it is much easier to attack and destroy them.

With this as the background I look at cyber attacks on our banks and water supply, terrorist attacks, border being infiltrated, and threats from Russia, Iran and N. Korea not as bluster but as a crystal clear warning of what is coming and coming soon.

I don't set dates but I definitely expect all of this to take place prior to the 2024 election in the US.

James

2Peter 2:1 But there arose false prophets also among the people, as among you also there shall be false teachers, who shall privily bring in destructive heresies, denying even the Master that bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction.

We should be very clear on this, the New Testament never uses the term "cult" and it is relatively meaningless, however it does use "false teacher" and "destructive heresies". A heresy is a school of thought. When all the believers hold onto some special doctrine that is not an article of the faith but that separates and divides them from other believers then that is destructive.

This does not mean that if different saints have different understandings and interpretations of various doctrines that it means one of them must be a "false teacher" or that one of those doctrines must be "destructive".

The determining point is does it "deny even the Master that bought them"?

In the book of Galatians there was a dispute concerning the matter of circumcision. Paul had gone to Jerusalem and met with the leaders and they all agreed that salvation had come to the Gentiles and there was no need for them to be circumcised to be saved. The point of that book is that the New Testament salvation took place at the Cross of Christ, and if you bear the marks of that crucifixion on your heart then you are saved. However, Peter drew back from the Gentile believers who were not circumcised. Paul said this was hypocrisy since they had already discussed this and agreed they didn't need to be circumcised. Peter had been influenced by "the judaizers" who Paul also called "the concision". They were telling the Gentiles that they needed to be circumcised to be truly part of the fellowship and Paul also says "they came from James".

This teaching denied the master who bought us with His blood. If you need the blood of Jesus and something else then you are denying the effectiveness of the blood and the redemption of the master.

This is simply the fact. We also know that James wanted Paul to perform the Nazarite vow which included an animal sacrifice. He never did because he was arrested first. But both of these actions are proof that James truly was the leader of the "judaizer" or "the concision". It shows that he was trying to straddle the fence between the New Covenant and the Old Covenant. That is his background, his context.

It doesn't mean that his epistle is off as many contend. I would point out that Peter denied the Lord three times, but then later when it was time to bring the gospel to the Gentiles he didn't deny the Lord. I would say that previous experience was the basis for his ministry. Paul was there when Stephen was stoned and as a result says "he was less than the least of all saints". But again, it was the basis for his ministry which revealed the body of Christ. Paul saw Jesus in all the saints and ministered that. In the same way I believe that James failure, like Peter and Paul, led to him having his ministry which revealed what it is to have pure religion, how to keep the church on the narrow road that leads to life.

Pure religion is to care for widows and orphans and to remain unspotted from the world.
Religions veer off from the narrow way in one of two directions, either they don't care for the orphans and widows and instead make millions and millions of tax exempt dollars, or they do care for the poor but also become spotted with the world. The apostasy has both of these examples, those that feel the Bible is out of date and those that interpret "blessing" to be financial (gold chains and luxury cars).

A Holy Declaration for the Bride & the 144000 from the Angel Gabriel 12-3-23 @ 5:40am

A Holy Declaration for the Bride & 144,000 from the Angel Gabriel 12-3-23 at 5:40 AM Part 2

This is your official notice to prepare to be moved into your official active-duty status.


This is a royal decree given by the Lamb for those to be prepared “to be shipped out” as your terminology would say once your orders are received. This is your final notice to get your lives fully in line with that of your King, Jesus the Christ, King of all and Lord of all. For no longer shall he remain as the slain Lamb of God only, but he has risen to full position now as the end of days has come and his wrath as Righteous Holy Judge is now here.

Your Captain of the Host, being that of all holy angelic forces and his Warriors of Light, his 144,000 to come, is officially giving his 144,000 their orders to prepare to leave for their holy assignments.

“Gabriel what does this mean?” “It means daughter of faith and of the Most Holy God time is no more. It has run out and no more is to be given out.” The advancement of the man of sin upon your world has caused the releasing of many angels once bound to now be released as well as some of their bound demon counterparts and offspring. The world is being prepared for lucifer and satan's rule of your world through the man of sin. Deception’s veil has fallen thick upon your world and its inhabitants and doctrines of demons as foretold in the holy scriptures of truth now abound instead of the pure word and knowledge of Jesus Christ, the Supreme Sacrifice for your world's inhabitants’ sins. “Is there more?” “Yes, daughter of faith, of Zion there is.”

This is an official decree declared in the Courts of Heaven and also presented by written scroll of the order given for his 144,000 to depart. Their traveling orders have arrived! This is also an holy declaration of intent given by the Lamb of God Jesus Christ, Yeshua Ha Mashiach, an official documentation, a holy declaration to his beloved children and those of his bride that he is on his way. Jesus Christ, Son of the living God, of the Most High who all praises are given and belong to. I hear the other two angels say in unison, “Holy praises to our great God who reigns and rules in mercy and love known for ever.”

Although he does not know the exact moment of his return until his Father, the Great God of heaven communicates it to him, he has been told it's closer than the inhabitants of the earth think and was hereby notified it was time to issue his holy decree, this proclamation and scroll of his, as your world would call it, “his letter of intent!” He has made a covenant by the shedding of his blood for his children, and he will not break it ever. If any covenant agreement is severed then it will always be the other participant because he is holy, righteous and honorable in all things.

The Holy Lamb says to his bride as the custom was in the Jewish days when he lived on the earth as God and man, the father once he approved of the wedding chambers and home for his son's new bride, he would then give the order to collect his bride. So has his Father God of all heaven hereby approved of all his preparations for his bride and he awaits only for his Father to say, “Go get your bride!” This is where all Heaven and Earth stands in heaven's timeline of things for his holy children including his 144,000 who have already been activated to active duty by a prior holy activation order.

The holy Lamb and King issues these last words officially to his children. “Little children, keep yourselves prepared in me. Be always ready. Do not get slack. Like a thief in the night, I shall come to those no longer watching or looking for me. This is your official notice I give to all my children that after warning upon warning, if you are found dirty in your bridal garments, meaning with unrepented sins in your life that I have called you to repent of and you still have not, then I shall not take you with me! Let it be noted officially in Heaven's Courts as written in the holy scriptures only those in spotless white by living a holy life in me shall I receive up to me and take with me when I come. So, be ready little children, be ever ready.”

I watch as the Angel Gabriel rolled the beautiful, elegant yet sturdy, pristine white scroll back into place. Only then do I realize it has a small latch that somehow holds the scroll into place to keep it from unrolling. He quickly attaches the scroll not far from where his trumpet horn is hanging from his belt. Then he grabs hold of the golden horn again and gives 3 short blasts that echoes across all time it feels like. “Now we must go, daughter of faith, of Zion daughter, of the Risen Lamb. We take our leave now.” And now they are gone and I'm sitting here in wonderment of all that has occurred. “Jesus Christ my love I'm coming to you to pray in your great name.”

Verses: Revelation 22:6 Joel 3:9 Joshua 5:13-15 Revelation 17:14 2 Timothy 2:3-4 Romans 13:4 Nahum 2:3 Philippians 4:13 Romans 8:38-39 Revelation 19:7-8; 11-16 1 Timothy 1:18Psalms 27:1 Ephesians 6:10-18 Jeremiah 51:20 Psalms 24:8 Hebrews 2:7-8 1 Peter 3:22 Revelation 14:1 Daniel 7:15-28 Daniel 10:10-21 Daniel Chapters 11&12 Amos 8:11

What Does Islam Think About King Charles?


The Mahdi is the first sign of the end times for Islam. He rides out on a white horse. He will establish the final Islamic Caliphate. All Muslims bow to his rule giving him authority over 25% of the world's population and 26 Muslim nations. He will make his capital in Jerusalem for 7 years.

So if we were to look to the Bible for this person he would be the one we call "The Antichrist".

God says you are leaving very soon! Sounding the alarm 🚨
