I was listening to Steve Bannon this morning and something he said struck me and I think it is very relevant to the rapture.

So a little background, if you don't know who Steve Bannon is I consider him a modern day Mordecai. You have probably heard of "Q" and I would consider that a reference to a modern day Queen Esther. I see Trump as a modern day Jehu, and Jezebel should go without saying who that refers to. Jonathan Cahn has done an excellent job of relating Ahab, Jezebel, and the two kings after them to Clinton, Obama and Biden.

That is the context of this. Also, Peter's word that "Judgment must begin with the house of God" to me is a direct reference to the rapture before the hour of trial. Some are taken, some are left, but for all of them it is a judgment. There are Christians worldwide, but as a nation only the US should be considered a "Christian" nation.

Also I have already shared concerning why I think we should look at the USA and Israel as the two kingdoms of Ephraim (nothern 10 tribes) and Judah (two southern tribes) in the Old Testament.

So then, what Bannon said was that there were a number of conservative platforms with huge number of subscribers that would cover Trump but under the caveat that they not talk about election interference because if they did they would be taken off of Youtube. Bannon said he knew this was true because he was taken off Youtube. When they took him off he then went to Rumble when it was nothing. He is now the single most influential conservative pundit with this populist movement that Trump has ridden. So I thought, imagine if the five biggest conservative channels on Youtube had done the same thing. You aren't going to censor me, I'll talk about what I want to talk about, and so they also packed up and moved to Rumble? If they had done that Rumble would be twice as big now and Youtube would have suffered a major decrease in viewers. Now if everyone who was "speaking in code" about all the things that Youtube censors had done the same and said we will not be censored, and so packed up and moved to Rumble then Youtube would have gone the way of Myspace.

That is when it hit me. If they censored people about the pandemic and about election interference, what will they do about the rapture? If you are left behind after the rapture do you think you will be able to talk about it on Youtube or Facebook? Bannon was an example for those who are going to be going through the seven year tribulation. Think about Hanukkah, they all had to flee to the mountains, that is like fleeing Facebook and Youtube and going to Rumble, only worse.

Now consider Trump. They impeached him, put him through all kinds of lawfare, mocked, ridiculed and slandered him every day, and then tried to assassinate him. Suppose you are a Christian and you are left behind. You will be subjected to the same treatment. Trump and Bannon are examples to the saints who are going to be left behind. I was reminded of a quote from Vince Lombardi "Winners are not quitters and quitters are not winners". I believe that all the things we have seen since the Feast of Trumpets in 2021 when they mandated the vaccine illegally has been an example to those who are going to be left behind. Everything you saw we are going to see, only worse. If you didn't take the vaccine you lost your job and in the seven years if you don't take the Mark of the Beast you will lose your job.

Jesus said that if we wanted to be disciples of the Lord we needed to take up our cross and follow Him. In the last three and half years we have seen that played out, and then in the next three and a half years we will see it played out again, only worse, and then of course in the last three and half years we will see it played out yet again, and yet even worse still.

The significance of Elon Musk

I think it is undeniable that in the last 4 years this is one of the most influential people on the planet. Clearly significant player in the development of AI and robots and also of Starlink, a communication network that puts a net around the entire US making the use of a single digital currency worldwide practical and feasible.

However, we should not ignore the impact he has has on this election.

1. 2020 was the high water mark of censorship. Elon bought Twitter and that destroyed the MSM's lock on information and the potential to censor everyone.

2. Because they couldn't censor everyone they resorted to lawfare and assassination attempts against Trump.

3. Trump did not have the resources or ground game for this election, Elon played a huge roll in helping him get over the finish line.

I consider Elon Musk to be the modern day equivalent of John the Baptist. John the Baptist was the forerunner of Jesus introducing Jesus to Israel. In the same way I think Elon will introduce the AntiChrist. I would divide the last 10 1/2 years of this age into three groups of 3 1/2 years each.

June 1, 2021 was when the US said employers could require Covid-19 vaccine. There are 1,260 days from that day to Nov 12, 2024. This was based on a claim in May 26, 2021 that only 0.01% of people who are vaccinated get infected with Covid later. We now know this is a blatant lie from the CDC. 1,260 days after that lie Trump is elected President.

I would argue that this last three and half years has seen many spirit filled believers take a stand to restrain evil worldwide. If they are raptured it will be like pulling the first string off the football field and putting in the second string who will also be here to restrain evil. After 3 1/2 years they too will be gone and you will see the third string on the Field (nation of Israel).

THE RED WAVE

Jeremiah 18:7-12 7 At what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up, and to pull down, and to destroy it; 8 If that nation, against whom I have pronounced, turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them. 9 And at what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it; 10 If it do evil in my sight, that it obey not my voice, then I will repent of the good, wherewith I said I would benefit them. 11 Now therefore go to, speak to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying, Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I frame evil against you, and devise a device against you: return ye now every one from his evil way, and make your ways and your doings good. 12 And they said, There is no hope: but we will walk after our own devices, and we will every one do the imagination of his evil heart.

My son, hear and write this warning to a deaf, dumb people. You have DEVISED A PLAN in your heart to CHANGE this nation from the DESTRUCTION I have pronounced. The time has long EXPIRED for a REPRIEVE, and your evil hearts think man can CHANGE what I have BROUGHT. Do you NOT HEAR the warnings and words to REPENT? Yet in your hearts you have REBELLED and REFUSE TO REPENT. Thus saith the Lord -- THE DESTRUCTION I HAVE PRONOUNCED WILL PROCEED AT BREAKNECK SPEED! (Def: very fast speed, dangerously fast, as fast as possible, at warp speed, at the speed of light)

My son, My body believes they can VOTE AWAY MY JUDGMENT, but I say you are VOTING FOR AN INCREASE IN TORMENT. You will get YOUR RED WAVE. You will VOTE for what you THINK is righteous justice -- but you have FORGOTTEN ME and forgotten to REPENT. Out of the RED WAVE will come DESTRUCTION upon the cities. Reprobate minds WILL NOT ACCEPT the outcome of the election, and GREAT TURMOIL will come. My children, you are IN this world, but not OF it, yet My body THINKS this is our world and the devil can't have it. My children, I only took the keys to DEATH and HELL away from satan. He still has legal ownership of this WORLD, at least for a little time. For I will split the eastern skies, coming with all My saints, and THEN will I take this world back. YOUR RED WAVE WILL TURN INTO BLOOD WITH THE ENSUING CHAOS. REPENT NOW, have your hearts in order.

My son, continue to SHOUT REPENT to this sleeping body. SOME will wake up in time, but MOST will continue to sleep. I will send a GREAT EARTHQUAKE to WAKE them up. Much DEATH and DESTRUCTION will come from this. HEAR ME NOW! REPENT, and turn from your evil ways. Turn to Me. Read My Word. Seek Me first, not man. Because no repentance will come, I will NOT RELENT My judgments. BRACE YOURSELVES, My Remnant! The times spoken about are now here. I call out again, REPENT NOW. Many tears will flow very soon. I truly love you. REPENT NOW.

Amen. Lord Jesus

John 11:1 Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha. 2 (It was that Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.) 3 Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.

The US has been sick for quite awhile and the church has been praying to the Lord for her.

4 When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby. 5 Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus. 6 When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was.

The two days could obviously refer to 2,000 years for God since a day is as a thousand years to God. I am not discounting that paradigm. However, it could also refer to two years. After the election steal in 2020 and the January 6th false flag event, the pandemic, the vaccine mandate, the catastrophe in Afghanistan, and the wide open border you can see that the Trump reelection campaign began in earnest. I highly doubt Trump would have decided to return and run again if everything were running smoothly.

7 Then after that saith he to his disciples, Let us go into Judaea again.

8 His disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?

There were two impeachment attempts against Trump. He knew that if he returns they would try to kill him and they would use lawfare and whatever means possible.

9 Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world. 10 But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.

This will take place prior to the spirit filled saints, the light of the world, being removed with the rapture.

11 These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.

The midnight cry that the bridegroom cometh was to wake the ten virgins out of sleep. That is the point of this election with Trump. Think of how much the church was sleeping. We thought that the verse to apply to politics was "this world is not my kingdom, if it were my angels would fight". We discovered there were 35 million Christians in this country who didn't even vote in elections. We looked at the candidates and said neither is an expression of Jesus Christ and so gave ourselves excuses why we would not vote for either one. We missed the fact that we were not voting for either one when we vote, rather we were voting to restrain evil. If those in power are corrupt, vote to remove them. Even if the new regime is no better you have made a statement that you are there to restrain evil and if you act in an evil way you will be removed.

12 Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.

Even two years ago many Christians thought it best to just stay out of the fracas.

13 Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep. 14 Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.

However, it then became clear to us that the people running this country were a stinking corpse and you had to do something.

15 And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him. 16 Then said Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto his fellowdisciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.

Thomas is not stupid. He knows if Trump runs again they will use lawfare, they will have assassination attempts, they will throw everything they have against him. This is why we need to have our ear tuned to the Lord so that we walk, not by sight, not by our understanding, but by the Lord's leading.

17 Then when Jesus came, he found that he had lain in the grave four days already.

Again, I am not discounting the fact that it was 4,000 years since Adam sinned when Jesus' ministry began. However, in this paradigm with Trump's reelection being the biggest comeback in political history I am saying it took place 4 years after the steal. Dana Coverstone had a dream of Biden lying in a coffin in the Rotunda on December 17th, the day the electoral college is certified by the states. In the same way we can say the US presidency has been dead for four years.

18 Now Bethany was nigh unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off: 19 And many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother. 20 Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary sat still in the house. 21 Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died. 22 But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee. 23 Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.

Jesus said that if we were to be His disciples we had to take up our cross and follow Him. All of us will have to go through death and resurrection. Raising Lazarus right before Jesus goes to Jerusalem to be crucified is a demonstration to us all about what we are about to go through. If you have not gone through it, then you will during the seven year tribulation spoken of in the book of Revelation.

24 Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day. 25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: 26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?

This is the church age. If you believe that Jesus is the resurrection and the life then you will die to the self and the flesh. To you to live is Christ and to die is gain. But that is not true of all Christians. Many do not have the testimony that they have been crucified with Christ and it is no longer they that live but Christ who lives in them.

John 11:27 She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world. 28 And when she had so said, she went her way, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee.

The church is divided by these two types of saints. There are those who are very busy working for the Lord and they were the first to become part of the "stop the steal" rallies. They are active in the pro life movement. They see it as their mission to feed the poor and the homeless and so they were also the first to see the harm from the open border with the drugs and the human trafficking. But in this election they realized they could not win if the 35 million Christians who don't vote stay home. So they told these believers the Lord is calling them.

29 As soon as she heard that, she arose quickly, and came unto him.

That is the one thing they care about, the Lord's calling. They know His voice and they follow Him wheresoever He goes.

30 Now Jesus was not yet come into the town, but was in that place where Martha met him. 31 The Jews then which were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up hastily and went out, followed her, saying, She goeth unto the grave to weep there.

For the last few months we have been bombarded with constant polls and prognostication about what it means.

32 Then when Mary was come where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.

We have seen this shift in the churches the last month or two where pastors and saints are now actively praying for the nation and for the election.

33 When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled. 34 And said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and see.

This has been our prayer that the Lord would come and see the situation in the US.

35 Jesus wept. 36 Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him! 37 And some of them said, Could not this man, which opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not have died?

Think of the attitude, there is a finality to their mind with death. Yes, Jesus had raised two others from the dead but those two hadn't been dead for a day, Lazarus has been dead for four days and is already in the tomb. I saw a lot of people with this attitude. After the 2020 election they were rejoicing that Trump had lost and was now gone for good. My response was I found everything that was going on fascinating and couldn't wait to see how it all worked out in the end. They flipped! It is the end! No concept of resurrection.

38 Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it. 39 Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been dead four days. 40 Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?

Do you realize that is what the saints have been doing the last four years? We have been taking away the stone that is hiding all the corruption. We have been exposing the lies about the pandemic, about the vaccine, about Afghanistan, about the border, about WW3, etc.

41 Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me. 42 And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me. 43 And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.44 And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.

This reminds me of the picture of Trump at the RNC with the bandage on his ear.

45 Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him.

So then, this has helped many of the believers to wake up. When I was a high school science teacher I would walk throughout the classroom as the kids were doing an assignment. Some kids in the back of the room were not happy with that and told me I was supposed to be up in the front of the room. I told them this is my room and I will walk wherever I wish. Christians need the same attitude. The world has told them to stay out of politics. The Lord has told us that we are witnesses and are to go throughout the earth, that includes politics.

46 But some of them went their ways to the Pharisees, and told them what things Jesus had done. 47 Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and said, What do we? for this man doeth many miracles. 48 If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him: and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation.

This is a reference to the globalists. I have seen video of Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clinton and others breaking down and crying about the outcome of the election. That seemed absurd, why would they do that? You see it even with newscasters who are supposed to have at least a veneer of impartiality. I then realized they understand that with Trump's victory the globalists will remove them from power. They have sold themselves out to the globalists, but if they can't do the job, they'll be replaced. They aren't crying about the US, they are crying about their own status in a world ruled by Satan.

49 And one of them, named Caiaphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all, 50 Nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.

While everyone is rejoicing over this election and the outcome know that behind the scenes they have decided to destroy the US.

51 And this spake he not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation; 52 And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad.

As a result of what is about to come on the US, the 49% of the world's Jews who live in the US will return to Israel. The church will be raptured and it will be the apostate church that is destroyed and burned.

53 Then from that day forth they took counsel together for to put him to death.

Wasn't it strange that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris seemed to disappear for about 12 hours? Obama fled the country. They have taken council, it has been determined to destroy the US.

54 Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews; but went thence unto a country near to the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim, and there continued with his disciples. 55 And the Jews' passover was nigh at hand: and many went out of the country up to Jerusalem before the passover, to purify themselves.

I have always found this expression "the Jews' passover" very strange. Why say "the Jews'" and not just "The Passover"? Perhaps the calendar was messed up and they weren't actually celebrating the Passover at the correct time. But it sounds like this was their holiday and not God's. For example, is Thanksgiving God's holiday or a uniquely US holiday? You could not say that about Christmas which clearly began in Europe and is celebrated around the world. But you could say that about Thanksgiving, it is the US' Thanksgiving. Or you could say "The American's Thanksgiving was nigh at hand".

56 Then sought they for Jesus, and spake among themselves, as they stood in the temple, What think ye, that he will not come to the feast? 57 Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a commandment, that, if any man knew where he were, he should shew it, that they might take him.

What Bible translation should you use?

Let's consider them

1. King James Version (KJV) -- Robert Breaker and others have done a remarkable job showing how mathematically perfect this translation is and that many of the other translations try to distort or twist what the Bible says. So without a doubt -- a great translation to use.

However, despite my feeling this is the single best and most pure translation I am not "KJV only". Rather I am a variant of that doctrine, and feel all doctrines are KJV only. By that I mean if you need to use a different translation than KJV to build a doctrine and that using KJV will blow a hole in that doctrine, then forget it, I am not buying your doctrine.

That said, there are very good reasons to use other translations.

2. Amplified version -- so one justification for using other translations is that there is no one to one equivalency when translating from Greek to English. Amplified gives you multiple meanings and shades of meanings of words. So in that sense it is helpful. It is a terrible version to read, by that I mean it is very hard to read through the Bible using that version but it is very helpful when looking at one verse or one passage.

3. Young's Literal Translation -- What he does is make a one for one translation from the Bible to English. So every single place a particular word appears in the Bible it will always have the same english word. The idea is not that this is a better translation but will quickly help people realize the Bible does not say what you might think it says reading english alone. This version is very helpful at shining a light on things in the Bible you would have never suspected being there. Again, it is somewhat weird to read this version, but when looking at a particular passage to study it can help shine a light.

4. Foreign language translation -- I found it very helpful to read the Bible in Spanish. It seemed every time I did the Lord shined light on the word. So if you can read the Bible in more than one language I would encourage that.

5. 1901 American Standard Version -- I would say this is also a very good translation, not as good as KJV, but much better than most of these newer translations designed to use english that is more familiar to people in the 20th and 21st century. If you don't want to read KJV, this would be my suggestion. However, American Standard is a terrible version, so avoid that.

6. There are many "bad" versions but they are also helpful. These versions help us understand what it is that Satan does not want people to know from the Bible. There are verses missing, that is a great way to identify key Bible verses. There are Bible verses where the meaning has been distorted by their very bad translation, that also is a great thing to look at to know what Satan is trying to hide and distort. But this kind of study is probably for someone who has spent 20 years in the Bible. I would not recommend this to anyone new to the Lord.

7. Blue Letter Bible -- this is an awesome tool. It gives you the original language (Hebrew, Greek, etc). It gives you the definition of each word. It gives you every place that word is used in the Bible.

America's thanksgiving a modern mirror image of the Jews' Passover.

John 11:55a And the Jews' passover was nigh at hand

We know that the Pharisees had changed the calendar, still I find it striking that this term "the Jews' passover". Is this a reference to the fact that the Romans were also in Israel but didn't celebrate this? Perhaps. But the word "Jews'" seems completely unnecessary and the Bible does not waste words. The Bible is making it clear this is "their" holiday. That could be to clarify that it is not the Roman's holiday, or even that it was not the holy day that God had ordained.

A mirror image is the reverse image. The easiest way to see that is to take a photograph of words in a mirror. For example, "Behold Ruth" written in Hebrew will say "Torah" when held up to the mirror. So then, what is the mirror image of "the Jews' Passover" for the Christian church?

Passover was at seedtime, so the mirror image would be at harvest time. Passover was a very simple meal at the beginning of the growing season. You have a lamb, you have bitter herbs, and you have unleavened bread (crackers). That is not a feast, that is a stout meal to prepare you for work. The mirror image of that meal would be a harvest feast. The pagans and the synagogue of Satan have a harvest feast at Halloween and All Saints day and Day of the dead. However, the mirror image of "the Jews'" is not pagans and Satanists, it is Christians. The Christian Harvest festival would be Thanksgiving.

So then, where did Thanksgiving come from? It definitely did not come from the Pilgrims. That is a good story and it does help sell the holiday as a uniquely American holiday. Again, a Hebrew would be a reference to men of faith, a Jew is simply children of Abraham according to the flesh. The concept of thanksgiving is not American, but the holiday on the fourth Thursday of November is. That particular day really solidifies the holiday as uniquely American. Again, that is in my opinion the mirror image of the gospel of John identifying the celebration of the Passover as "uniquely the Jews".

Yes, the Pilgrims did have a harvest festival to celebrate a good harvest and yes they did share that meal with the Native Americans. That is true. This meal mirrors the book of Acts in many ways. At the time of this feast the Pilgrims were a communal society having all things in common like the early church. The Native Americans were clearly pagan indicating the gospel going out into all the world like Peter eating with the Gentiles, a thing that was illegal for Jews. But that was a one time thing that was soon forgotten but discovered later by historians. Christians had celebrated "thanksgiving" in November, not as a feast day but as a day to spend in Church celebrating God's providence. That was something done for hundreds of years in Europe. But America chose Thursday to celebrate this because that was when Pastors would have a midweek service. During the civil war women from the North East tried to make it a national holiday as a way to unite the country. They picked the last thursday in November because Washington had declared a national day of thanksgiving on that day in 1789. Lincoln pronounced the last thursday of November to be a day of thanksgiving in 1863, 74 years after Washington, and presidents did this for 76 years. But it wasn't a national holiday and the South rejected this.

Then in 1939 FDR pushed for this to be a holiday to boost Christmas sales and stimulate the economy. In 1941 the fourth Thursday of the month was picked, because they wanted it to be a month before Christmas.

This also mirrors the book of Acts with Ananias and Saphira. Barnabas giving everything would typify Washington, then think of Ananias as the generation that lived from Lincoln to FDR, they say they want this to wholly for the Lord, but that is not true, they have kept back some for their own political gain. Then they die, and Saphira walks in, she also says she wants it to be wholly for the Lord but that also is not true, she is trying to stimulate the economy to get people to buy stuff.

So then Thanksgiving has only been a national holiday for 83 years. A generation is 70 years, 80 if it is strong (rebellious). So if we get to 85 years then you would round that to 90. So we are close to the limit of what a generation is, but know this, FDR actually tried to make this change for two years prior to 1941, it wasn't until 1941 that congress made it a law. So we really are at the very edge of a rebellious generation.

Black Friday as a term began being used in the 1950s due to the chaos the day after Thanksgiving. So then Thanksgiving becoming a national holiday was mixed with the worship of money and the golden calf from the very beginning.

9 Then Peter said unto her, How is it that ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them which have buried thy husband are at the door, and shall carry thee out. 10 Then fell she down straightway at his feet, and yielded up the ghost: and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying her forth, buried her by her husband. 11 And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things.

The first time this word "great" is used in Acts is:

The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great G3173 and notable day of the Lord come:

Acts also uses this word in chapter 4:

And with great G3173 power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great G3173 grace was upon them all.

The first time fear is used in Acts

2:43 And fear G5401 came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles.

When Peter preached the gospel on Pentecost.

Acts 5 with Ananias and Saphira use this term "fear" twice and then the fourth time is in Acts 9:31

Then had the churches rest throughout all Judaea and Galilee and Samaria, and were edified; and walking in the fear G5401 of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Ghost, were multiplied.

You can see the first three events have calibrated everyone to walk in the fear of the Lord.

The last time this happened was when the demon possessed man attacked the sons of Sceva, saying Jesus I know and Paul I know. So during the tribulation you will have two witnesses, and a whole lot of demons running around.

my point is that the term "great fear" points to the rapture and there are multiple events. Those raptured before the hour of trial. Those beheaded for their faith. And of course the two witnesses when they are caught up to the Lord.

I think we can see a picture of the corruption of the church being coopted by the government to worship the economy instead of the Lord in this festival of thanksgiving. We can also see the same thing with the money changers turning the house of God which should be a house of prayer into a house of merchandise.

Please note the "Macy's day parade" began decades before Thanksgiving was a national holiday and was not called a Thanksgiving day parade, it was a parade to kick off the beginning of the Christmas shopping season.

Also please note, Lincoln and FDR both died in office while president. They would signify Ananias and Saphira.

There have been several interpretations of what the finger underlining November 3 times means so take this with a grain of salt.

Suppose the finger represented going from Nov 2020 to Nov 2021, then to 2022 and then to 2023. So the finger underlining was depicting a full year from one year to the next. But then instead of simply doing the same thing the fourth year, the fourth year (2024) is when God Hits us with His fist.

Chinese and Russian soldiers -- that would be after the rapture.

When Moses broke the ten commandments we have a type of the rapture taking place on a Feast day that Aaron appoints but God didn't. When Samson pushes out the pillars, another type of the rapture it is during a great sacrifice to Dagon. Again, a feast, but not one that God appointed. When Ruth is married, a third type of the rapture of the Gentile church it is during or after a harvest festival. No mention of it being a feast to the Lord. In Jeremiah we are told "summer is over and we are not saved" again suggesting this takes place at or after a harvest festival at the beginning of winter.

We are also told in Amos that God would turn our religious songs to mourning as for an only child. The only time the radio is filled with "religious songs" is at the time of Christmas and that begins with Thanksgiving.

Peter tells us that judgment must begin with the house of God. So that sounds like this religious festival that kicks off the Christian music season is also intimately intertwined with the apostate church. If you look at the history of Thanksgiving it was originally something that belonged to the church alone as a time to give thanks for God's providence. George Washington used this day to declare a national day of thanksgiving, kind of like Barnabas being a son of consolation and giving everything to the Lord. Then Lincoln and FDR both seized on that day for political purposes, pretending to give all thanks to the Lord but keeping some back for their own goals. They both die in office for lying to the Holy Spirit.

So my point is that according to the typology the rapture does not take place on a feast day of the Lord but it does take place on a great sacrifice to Dagon (I associate the worship of Dagon to the Catholic church since the Pope wears the same hat they wear) and this is also a day that is an orgy to Moloch, kind of like black Friday and a day that Aaron has appointed as a feast to the Lord which could indicate the apostate church adopting this fourth Thursday for Thanksgiving. The history is clear, this is not done to give thanks to the Lord but rather to promote the sale of Christmas merchandise. The story of the pilgrims having a feast with the Indians is simply a great sales job for this holiday as though it was sovereign from God.

It is also interesting how a generation is 70 years, 80 if you are rebellious. To me that means 65 to 74 years, and 75 to 84 years. From Washington to Lincoln would be in the 70 year category, then from Lincoln to FDR would be in the 80 year category and from FDR to the present would also be in the 80 year category. In fact, if you take into account the two years that FDR tried to declare a day of Thanksgiving prior to it becoming a national holiday it was really at the very limit of what would be considered 80 years.

I like using the book of Acts as a model, I like the term "great fear" indicating something very prophetic like the rapture. I like the reference to Jesus saying they would be eating and drinking to Thanksgiving and the use of this holiday to expose the apostate church that is more concerned with Black Friday than they are with giving the Lord thanks.

We are not ignorant of Satan's devices. Everything in your fridge and freezer will be lost during the three days. However, that is not the key point. The key point is everything that requires refrigeration worldwide will be lost. There will be an immediate shortage of butter, milk and meat.

HOLE IN THE WALL


~~Please note that this is a very hard word, both to give and to hear. There are some descriptions in the vision that people may find to be upsetting or offensive. Please use your discretion in deciding whether to listen to this message.

Ezekiel 8:17-18 17 Then he said unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? Is it a light thing to the house of Judah that they commit the abominations which they commit here? for they have filled the land with violence, and have returned to provoke me to anger: and, lo, they put the branch to their nose. 18 Therefore will I also deal in fury: mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity: and though they cry in mine ears with a loud voice, yet will I not hear them. My son, hear Me now and write these words I say to you. I speak now to those who call themselves by My Great Name - who hide in the shadows and commit sins of unthinkable abominations. You hide in dark rooms and think dark thoughts and think I do not see or know of your sins. Men doing ungodly things with men, committing adultery in My presence. Women allowing and participating in all forms of ungodliness. I say, you have been judged, and your end has been sealed. I will remove you from the face of the Earth.

My son, LOOK AND SEE WHAT IS BEYOND THIS ROOM. LOOK THROUGH THE HOLE. WHAT DO YOU SEE? VISION: As soon as I heard these words spoken by the Lord, I was immediately caught up into a vision where I found myself standing in front of a wall. There was a large crack in the wall, wide enough for me to see through. What I saw was shocking and horrific! I heard myself say aloud - Lord, I see a ritual involving a small child. I see men and women beating the child! I see a large knife plunging into it's small chest! I see them eating the heart and drinking blood! Then I heard the Lord say - Watch, My son. See what they do. I continued looking and said - I see them singing songs from books like hymnals, and they are raising their hands in worship to you! The Lord said - Although they say My Name, it is not ME they worship. They worship satan.

My son, look now through the HOLE IN THE WALL and tell Me what you see. I looked again and then replied - I see men and women having a bible study in someone's home. They finished praying and are all standing up and taking their clothes off. They are singing songs of praise while engaging in immoral sexual acts! I asked - Lord, why do you show me these things? The Lord replied - Because, My son, this is what is happening behind closed doors in My church. THUS SAITH THE LORD - I WILL SHAKE MY CHURCH AND GRIND UP THE BONES OF THOSE WHO HAVE COMMITTED SUCH VILE SINS. MY DAY OF JUDGMENT WILL FALL HEAVY ON THOSE WHO COMMIT THESE ABOMINATIONS IN MY NAME. THE FIERCENESS OF MY WRATH IS NOW COMING TO THE CHURCH. REPENT NOW! REPENT NOW! REPENT NOW!

My son, go now and pray for the innocent people who have been caught up in such churches, new young believers who have been corrupted by evil men and women posing as Christians. These (evil men and women) are the ones that will be blessed to have a millstone around their necks, for they will face My wrath for leading My children away from the truth.

My son, I have set MY MARK on all who truly follow Me. Many in My body think they follow Me, but they follow man and man's doctrine. I say to those - read My Word, learn of Me. Follow Me, and I will lead you and guide you. Perilous times are now upon you. Judgments are beginning in earnest, and many will perish. Pray - ask Me to allow you to look through the HOLE IN THE WALL, and I will show you of such sin and idolatry. REPENT NOW - FOR I AM COMING SOON FOR THOSE WITH MY MARK ON THEIR FOREHEADS.

Amen. Lord Jesus Christ

The 3 Days of Darkness & the 3rd Seal Dream 11-7-24@3:18 AM

"After the three days of darkness lifts severe famine will reach worldwide epic proportions because it won't take very long for each nation to use up their stockpiles of these things"

We aren't losing 3 days of food, we are losing all of our stockpiles of food. There are people who have a year's supply of meat in the freezer, all gone. Imagine every grocery store and every restaurant throwing out everything they had in the fridge and in the freezer.

She talks specifically of turkeys being thrown out. Generally speaking in the US (the turkey is native to the US) the slaughter and freezing of turkeys is seasonal. If this were right after Thanksgiving you wouldn't see any turkeys. If this took place on Thanksgiving you also might not see any turkeys. People can begin cooking the turkeys early on Thanksgiving. So if this were to take place prior to that cooking beginning, then you would see turkeys dumped out three days later. Also, if this took place a month before Thanksgiving you wouldn't see this either since the turkeys are probably still alive at the farm and haven't been slaughtered yet.

Consider her other dream of cardboard cutouts at the table for Thanksgiving while everyone is sitting in the corner in a panic. That sounds like the three days of darkness.

A new perspective on Esther

Esther 5:3 Then said the king unto her, What wilt thou, queen Esther? and what is thy request? it shall be even given thee to the half of the kingdom. 4 And Esther answered, If it seem good unto the king, let the king and Haman come this day unto the banquet that I have prepared for him. 5 Then the king said, Cause Haman to make haste, that he may do as Esther hath said. So the king and Haman came to the banquet that Esther had prepared. 6 And the king said unto Esther at the banquet of wine, What is thy petition? and it shall be granted thee: and what is thy request? even to the half of the kingdom it shall be performed. 7 Then answered Esther, and said, My petition and my request is; 8 If I have found favour in the sight of the king, and if it please the king to grant my petition, and to perform my request, let the king and Haman come to the banquet that I shall prepare for them, and I will do to morrow as the king hath said.

This never made sense to me before, but now with Trump's election I do see the wisdom in this approach.

9 Then went Haman forth that day joyful and with a glad heart: but when Haman saw Mordecai in the king's gate, that he stood not up, nor moved for him, he was full of indignation against Mordecai. 10 Nevertheless Haman refrained himself: and when he came home, he sent and called for his friends, and Zeresh his wife. 11 And Haman told them of the glory of his riches, and the multitude of his children, and all the things wherein the king had promoted him, and how he had advanced him above the princes and servants of the king. 12 Haman said moreover, Yea, Esther the queen did let no man come in with the king unto the banquet that she had prepared but myself; and to morrow am I invited unto her also with the king. 13 Yet all this availeth me nothing, so long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king's gate. 14 Then said Zeresh his wife and all his friends unto him, Let a gallows be made of fifty cubits high, and to morrow speak thou unto the king that Mordecai may be hanged thereon: then go thou in merrily with the king unto the banquet. And the thing pleased Haman; and he caused the gallows to be made.

Inviting Haman to the first banquet made him think his position as #2 in the country was secure and that he could proceed with his plan to exterminate the Jews. I think this is what we have seen with this operation involving Trump. During his first term he chose all kinds of people who were clearly traitors or compromised. Then when he lost the election it gave these traitors even more confidence that they were now firmly in control. What was Joe Biden's mandate, to exterminate MAGA, it is like Haman wanting to exterminate Mordecai. But in this way they were overconfident and tipped their hand. I suspect over the last 8 years the operation has collected the evidence on every single one of these traitors. They have been poo pooing the idea of Q for the last 8 years, but now they know their has been an operation in the works and they are caught red handed. Technically Trump doesn't take office for 2 more months, but that does not apply to the military operation which may be in full swing now picking up people, flipping them, or arresting and trying them.

Then in Esther 6

8 Let the royal apparel be brought which the king useth to wear, and the horse that the king rideth upon, and the crown royal which is set upon his head: 9 And let this apparel and horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king's most noble princes, that they may array the man withal whom the king delighteth to honour, and bring him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaim before him, Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delighteth to honour.

I think this would refer to Trump winning the election. The first banquet would be Trump's first term. The second banquet is Trump's second term. In between those we see Haman trying to execute Mordecai using lawfare, assassination attempts, etc only for that to backfire and for Trump to be given the royal apparel.

I read that most turkeys are slaughtered and frozen for thanksgiving weeks before. In fact most grocery stores receive their frozen turkeys weeks before. So it is reasonable to assume they are already slaughtered and frozen. Radio stations generally start playing Christmas music after Thanksgiving and I understand from Amos that at that time the rapture will have already taken place, but likely the three days of darkness as well.

However, I don't expect the rapture in the middle of Thanksgiving because in that case the turkeys would be cooked and none of them would have gone bad.

So then, if the mirror image of Jesus instituting the Lord's table Wed night is the rapture of those partaking of His table while the hour of trial falls on those partaking of the idols table the next day, then Wed night might be according to the pattern. However, the mirror image of the Fig tree drying up from the roots would be this mountain being cast into the sea. Jesus cursed the fig tree on Monday of Passover week, after the triumphal entry and after flipping the tables on the money changers. So then, perhaps Nov 25th we have a stock market collapse, followed by the US being tossed into the sea like a great millstone.

Interestingly that verse is not in Luke, but only in Mark and Matthew. That suggests to me that Passover week is a model for the seven year tribulation.

In that model Jesus riding in triumphantly on a donkey is a mirror image of Jesus being victorious with His deplorables, irredeemable garbage. That would refer to the rapture event at the start of the 7 day week. So then, Nov 24th would be the triumphant entry to the seven year period. The rapture causes the collapse of the stock market and the attack on the US as the Great Babylon and three days of darkness. On Thursday, Thanksgiving, the three days are over, the famine is here, and the attack on the apostate church begins.

Psalm 95:2 Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.

Psalm 100:4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.
