James 2:18 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.

How do you show your faith by your works? This is answered prayer. Chapter 5 of James talks about answered prayer. That is how. He talks about the pastors praying over the sick and them being healed. If the church only talks about faith but has no answered prayers, then that church is dead. A work of faith is simply answered prayer, but James is letting you know that doesn't mean you sit in a convent praying. If you are praying for the sick you must be out there with the sick, working with them, concerned for them, and then taking all the needs to the Lord in prayer on a daily and hourly basis.

Herb Brookes did a master class in psychology in preparing his team to defeat the Russians in the 1980 Olympics. He knew they would be overawed the first time they played so he arranged a game three days before the olympics with the Russians in NY. The Olympic team got blown out, but that simply put a chip on their shoulder for the next time they played. Meanwhile the Russians blew them out a week earlier so it is hard for them to take the team all that seriously.

I say this because the Lord does the same thing, He is the master at coaching. Luke talks about those who are raptured and who are they, the offscouring of all things. The ones no one takes seriously, no one thinks is all that great. Imagine you are on a relay team, three guys don't want the fourth guy, they think he cannot compete with them and do everything in their power to get him off the team. But then in the first race they win solely because of the despised guy, and now everything flips. Now the question is whether or not those three arrogant, proud guys are gonna make it or not. This is what the tribulation saints are going through, they thought they were all that but then get humbled and now they have to give 100% to prove they belong on the same team as the guy they despised.

Daniel 9:4 And I prayed unto the Lord my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep his commandments; 5 We have sinned, and have committed iniquity, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even by departing from thy precepts and from thy judgments:

Lord Jesus, as it was in the days of Daniel so it is in our days. The saints carried off to Babylon sinned and the believers who have lived in the US have also sinned. This nation has committed iniquity, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even departing from your precepts and from your judgments.

6 Neither have we hearkened unto thy servants the prophets, which spake in thy name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.

You have sent your servants to call the US to repentance. Wilkerson, Duduman, Cahn and many others and they have not hearkened unto them that have spoken in the name of Jesus.

7 O Lord, righteousness belongeth unto thee, but unto us confusion of faces, as at this day; to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, that are near, and that are far off, through all the countries whither thou hast driven them, because of their trespass that they have trespassed against thee.

O Lord, this is the case today in Jerusalem and in Washington DC. Never have we seen such confusion of face especially from the talking heads on TV. This is because of their trespass that they have trespassed against thee.

8 O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee.

O Lord Jesus, to us belongs the confusion of face, this country is ruled by democratic rule and we have been the ones who voted for these rulers to rule us as they have.

9 To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgivenesses, though we have rebelled against him;

You are a merciful and forgiving God. We understand that You will forgive 490 times and we have see the testimony that this is true and witnessed this ourselves over the last two thousand years. We know that although many will not repent nor confess their sins, some will and it is not your will that any should perish. Be glorified in saving some and snatching some from the fire.

10 Neither have we obeyed the voice of the Lord our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us by his servants the prophets.

Lord we confess that we have not obeyed the voice of God through your servants the prophets.

11 Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, even by departing, that they might not obey thy voice; therefore the curse is poured upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God, because we have sinned against him.

Yes, if this were only a few people there would not be this curse poured out on all the earth. We learned in the mortgage meltdown that it was all of them, all the bankers, all the regulators, all the journalists and all the politicians. We now know about the child trafficking and although some have taken a stand against this we have seen how pervasive is this demonic spirit in the US.

12 And he hath confirmed his words, which he spake against us, and against our judges that judged us, by bringing upon us a great evil: for under the whole heaven hath not been done as hath been done upon Jerusalem.

Lord You warned us what would happen and we have seen it with our own eyes take place and so we know that Your word is true, every jot and tittle will be fulfilled and the things done in the US, in Washington DC, in NYC and in other cities and states will bring on us great evil.

13 As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us: yet made we not our prayer before the Lord our God, that we might turn from our iniquities, and understand thy truth.

And yet, for all that the leaders have still not made their prayer before Jesus Christ, our Lord God that we might turn from this wickedness and stand with the truth.

14 Therefore hath the Lord watched upon the evil, and brought it upon us: for the Lord our God is righteous in all his works which he doeth: for we obeyed not his voice.

Therefore are we now on the brink of a nuclear holocaust because we did not obey the voice of the Lord.

15 And now, O Lord our God, that hast brought thy people forth out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and hast gotten thee renown, as at this day; we have sinned, we have done wickedly.

And now, O Lord our God, not only are we talking about the unbelievers, but even more about Your church and those who profess your name. They too have done wickedly.

16 O Lord, according to all thy righteousness, I beseech thee, let thine anger and thy fury be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain: because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people are become a reproach to all that are about us.

O Lord, according to all thy righteousness you will make your people to become a reproach to all that are about us. But I beseech that you would let thine anger and thy fury be turned away from those who truly do repent, and go to their knees to ask you for forgiveness and salvation.

17 Now therefore, O our God, hear the prayer of thy servant, and his supplications, and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord's sake.

Now therefore, O Lord our God, hear the prayer of they servant for all these things I ask in the precious name of Jesus Christ our Lord and stand on His blood. May Jesus cause His face to shine upon the desolate church.

18 O my God, incline thine ear, and hear; open thine eyes, and behold our desolations, and the city which is called by thy name: for we do not present our supplications before thee for our righteousnesses, but for thy great mercies.

O Lord, we do not stand on our own righteousness which is but filthy rags, rather we are called by Thy name and have become Your righteousness because of Your blood which You shed. Our prayer is for Your great mercies. Amen.

19 O Lord, hear; O Lord, forgive; O Lord, hearken and do; defer not, for thine own sake, O my God: for thy city and thy people are called by thy name.

Rapture Timing & Typology Through Simeon & Anna Luke 2:25-2:32

A couple of points. The circumcision of Jesus would not refer to the rapture, so 2025-2032 would refer to the circumcision, the cutting off of the flesh.


Also, if the Gentiles are invited to Shavuot then that would not be the pre tribulation rapture. That would be at the midpoint of the tribulation when all the tribulation saints are also taken by then.

A couple of points. The circumcision of Jesus would not refer to the rapture, so 2025-2032 would refer to the circumcision, the cutting off of the flesh.

Also, if the Gentiles are invited to Shavuot then that would not be the pre tribulation rapture. That would be at the midpoint of the tribulation when all the tribulation saints are also taken by then.
Also, the ministry of the two witnesses is 1,260 days. On Shavuot you have two leavened loaves that are waved, I believe that refers to the raising up of the two witnesses. If we subtract 1,260 days from June 8, 2028 we get December 26, 2024. I think that Christmas is the ideal time for the Antichrist to be revealed and also the ideal time for the two witnesses to begin their ministry since this year that is also Hanukkah.

On the other hand if the rapture were on Shavuot that would mean the two witnesses would be killed and raised on Hanukkah.

We were told in Matthew and Mark to pray that your flight be not in winter. The flight of the two witnesses marks the end of the tribulation saints and the point at which the Jews must take flight. Shavuot is in June, it is not in winter. If this were to happen at Hanukkah how many would die? Old people, young people, sick people. They are told to flee and not even return to your house, so you have nothing and must survive outdoors in the winter. We are not told this in Luke which I believe is written to those who are raptured before the tribulation.

Hosea tells us about the Apostasy that takes place in the 20th century.

Joel tells us about the Pandemic in 2020 that this is a sign that the day of the Lord is at hand.

Amos tells us to prepare to meet our God and depicts the days from the Pandemic to the "earthquake" -- opening of the sixth seal and the rapture.

Obadiah tells us about how the Main Stream Media will attack and ridicule the saints of God. They will use Hollywood and the Music industry. But the Lord will stand with the saints.

Jonah tells us the sign of Jonah which is critical to understanding when Jesus was crucified, and when the two days metioned in Hosea will end.

Micah is a word of encouragement to those who are left behind

Nahum tells us that Nineveh is utterly destroyed eventually, telling us that the nations will be judged at Armageddon.

Habakkuk is word that God is in fact good, righteous and just in the midst of the horrible tribulation.

Zephaniah is for the Jews, with the US having been destroyed and now completely isolated they need to turn to the Lord in the Day of the Lord.

Haggai is speaking to the remnant that still believe to turn to the Lord, take a stand and you will be victorious against all odds.

Zechariah is a triumphant book, like an old western, where Jesus as the savior rides into town to save those who trust in Him.

With this message in place the book of Malachi is telling us that we need to receive the messengers the Lord sends and that we cannot blame God for us reaping what we have sown.

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

This is a blog about the rapture, about the Bible, and about the Lord.

Thank you Lord, you have delivered me from mine enemies. I had to leave Facebook, I had to leave a previous "Christian" forum before being able to post on this forum. But this blog has been lifted up above all those who tried to cancel it, and I thank You. Here I am, in the midst of the internet with all the heathen singing praise to the Lord Jesus.

Thank you Lord for giving me the truth, and giving me the discernment to not listen to vain people or with dissemblers. I have loved your church and rejected the congregation of evil doers, I refused to sit with the wicked. You have washed me with Your blood and every day I wash in the water of your word, every day I compass your altar, O Lord. I do this that I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving and tell of all thy wondrous works. For this I give You thanks.

Lord, I cried unto you when I had cancer and You healed me. You brought my soul up from the grave and kept me alive that I should not die. Sing unto the Lord, all ye saints, give thanks to Him with a grateful heart, remember His holiness. Lord the sin of the world is like a foul poison in the water and Your holiness is like cool mountain springs of crystal clear water. Thank You Lord.

Thank You Lord that You turned my mourning for my son into dancing, You have put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness. This was all done to the end that I may sing praises to thee, and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks unto thee forever.

Lord I remember my adversity when my enemies rejoiced and gathered themselves together, they gathered themselves together against me and I knew it not, they did tear me and ceased not. With hypocritical mockers at Your table, they gnashed upon me with their teeth. Lord you rescued my soul from destruction and from the lions. I was able to stand in the great congregation and give You thanks. I have been able to praise you among much people. For this Lord I give you Thanks.

Lord You have reminded me of my vows of consecration and of Your faithfulness and so I give you Thanks. I called upon You in the day of trouble and You delivered me and You shalt glorify me. Lord, I give You thanks.

O Lord I have seen the rich and the mighty, who are proud and boastful. But I am poor and sorrowful. I trust in You to let thy salvation, O God, set me up on high. I will praise the name of God with a song and I will magnify Him with thanksgiving. With a grateful heart I will sing praises unto the Lord most high.

In this blog, O God, do we give thee thanks, unto thee do we give thanks: for thy name is near, Your coming is imminent, and all thy wondrous works do declare this. So we thy sheep of they pasture will give thee thanks forever, we will show forth thy praise to all generations. It is a good think to give thanks unto the Lord and to sing praises unto thy name, O Most High.

O come, let us sing unto the Lord, let us come before His presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto Him with psalms. For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods. And so I call on all the saints to give thanks unto the Lord; call upon His name: make known His deeds among the people. Praise ye the Lord. O give thanks unto the Lord; for He is good: for His mercy endureth forever. Thank you Lord that this honor have all your saints.

Save us, O Lord our God. We see the impending nuclear holocaust and so we call on You for Your salvation. And gather us among the heathen to the Father's house as You promised, that we would give thanks unto thy holy name, and to triumph in Your praise. O give thanks to the Lord, the one that we obey, for He is good: for His mercy endureth forever. Let the redeemed say so! We have been redeemed out of the hand of the enemy! And Lord we pray, gather us out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north and from the south! O that men would praise the Lord when they see His goodness and the wonderful works, especially the rapture! Let all those men who see this sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving and declare His works with rejoicing!

Lord Jesus, I will offer thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and I will call upon the name of the Lord. At midnight when your judgment falls I will rise to give thanks unto thee because your judgments are righteous. At that time all the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord, as a testimony to Israel the Prince of God, to give thanks unto the name of the Lord Jesus. Give thanks unto the Lord Jesus, His commandments are good and His mercy endures forever. Give thanks unto the God of gods, for when we pray He answers and His mercy endures forever. Give thanks unto the Lord of Lords, for when we pray He moves the kings and the rulers to do His will, and His mercy endures forever. Give thanks unto the God of heaven, for when the only way to be saved is to be snatched up to heaven, He moves and His mercy endures forever. Surely the righteous who stand on the Lord's blood shall give thanks unto thy name: the upright shall dwell in thy presence. Sing unto the Lord with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God.

Give thanks with a grateful heart,
give thanks to the Holy One;
give thanks, because he’s given
Jesus Christ, his Son.
Give thanks with a grateful heart,
give thanks to the Holy One;
give thanks, because he’s given
Jesus Christ, his Son.

And now let the weak say ‘I am strong’,
let the poor say ‘I am rich’,
because of what the Lord has done for us;
and now let the weak say ‘I am strong’,
let the poor say ‘I am rich’,
because of what the Lord has done for us.
Give thanks…

Walking Pneumonia


I would warn Christians to not poo poo this. I think the first pandemic was mostly bogus, the real issue was the vaccine which gives you immune deficiency setting you up for the real virus. But also they will blame all the "anti vaxx" people (primarily Christians). You fake left and then run right.

The Certificate of Vaccine AI was the fake left. They got 80% of the world to get the jab. Then they'll turn on the 5G, people start getting sick, and they'll blame anyone who is saying it isn't real.

I would also point out that the Pact for the Future gives the WHO dictatorial power in event of a health emergency.

New Ruler's Speech Dream 11-27-24@ 1:04 AM & 8:09 AM


1 John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: 3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

Rapture Dream: It Happened Just Moments Before THE RAPTURE! They Were Not Ready For This

I would encourage anyone who "misses the bus" to listen to the link 12,719, there will still be a second chance for those left behind but they will need to make some very serious consecration to be fully consecrated to the Lord and to follow Him absolutely and to stop putting it off till tomorrow. After the rapture it will be very hard to find the truth and find someone you can trust to speak the truth to you. Hopefully you will have a KJV bible that you can read.
