The November-December Dream 11-2-24@12:01AM

In this dream she sees raging fire, plumes of smoke, which then turns into small mushroom clouds. Then the three days of darkness begins then she sees Thanksgiving with cardboard cutouts, no food, and people scared and dazed.

My guess is that when things go nuclear that is when the rapture takes place followed by three days of darkness. This immediately precedes Thanksgiving. The cardboard cutouts remind me of how they would have cardboard cutouts of famous people and you would take a picture with them making it look like they were with you. In this case the "famous people" depicted in these cardboard cutouts are family members who are no longer there (rapture?) and the scared, dazed look is how they will appear after nuclear bombs, rapture and three days of darkness.

There is a very interesting pattern in the feasts. The first feast of the year is Passover which then leads to seven day feast of unleavened bread. The last feast is tabernacles, which is seven days living in booths to remember the exodus, and then the 8th day concludes it, the mirror image of Passover + Unleavened bread.

Now let's compare this with Vicky's dream. Would you be celebrating thanksgiving without your swimming pool or fancy car or two week vacation at some resort? Tabernacles reminds everyone of where they came from and that sets the stage for a great thanksgiving. But too many have forgotten.

When I was much younger I was in the boy scouts and I learned how to make a shelter. Once I built a shelter in the dead of winter, it was very cold but I was warm and comfortable in the shelter. It teaches you that all you need is a knife and you can survive.

Also, imagine if your phone and computer and TV and radio were all taken away from you. Then you would actually have to talk with others, learn what is going on in their lives and let your stories entertain you.

I am reminded of this scene in the Harry Potter movies where Harry's cousin has a birthday. He is upset because there are only 25 presents (I don't remember the actual number but it was a large number). His complaint is that last year there were 25, he expected more. His parents try to explain that some of these presents are bigger than last year. Obviously the point was to describe him as being a spoiled brat, especially when compared with the treatment of Harry. God understands this, if we don't go out and live in booths like livestock each year we also will become spoiled brats.

These two seven day feasts depict the church age. It is an age of eating unleavened bread (crackers) and of living in shelters like the homeless. This is the fellowship of the Lord's sufferings and it results in wonderful memories that become sweeter and sweeter with age.

I remember a period of my life when I was hitchhiking across the country. Occasionally you would get a bad ride. One time I was laying out in this field enjoying the sun and the clouds drift by. After an hour or so I got back on the road hitchhiking and was picked up by this man who immediately put his hand on my leg. That never happens, it was crystal clear this guy was homosexual. But right then a beetle crawls out of my pocket. I pick it up and put it in the cars ashtray. Then a second, a third, and soon they were crawling out of the ashtray as well as my pockets. So I roll down the window and start popping them out the window. This guy freaked out, pulled over and told me to get out of the car. I thought that was hilarious, God protecting me with little bugs. I had ten days of wonderful experiences of the Lord. But when I got to my destination the saints I was staying at gave me a change of clothes. Later I asked what they did with my other clothes and they told me they had thrown them away! I hadn't even realized how bad they were.

But remembering these experiences puts everything in perspective. All of a sudden all those things we are complaining about are now "adventures" that make life interesting.

There is a second interesting pattern and that is the food. You eat the bread of affliction during the feast of unleavened bread and you feast on all the food from the good land in the feast of tabernacles. I remember I spent thirty days in England one year and only had a couple of dollars a day to spend on food (obviously it was in pounds, I think I had 1 pound a day). That was enough to buy one loaf of bread or as a change of pace I could buy some potatoes. It was one or the other. Fortunately I had access to some butter as well, though I could not afford to buy any. That is what I lived on for one month.

A few years later I was meeting in a church and lived in a brother's house. It was a temporary dwelling and it was made plain that frequently I would need to move. Over the next three years I moved at least 13 times that I can remember. However the food was great. I would get invited to saints homes and the church practiced having these love feasts each week.

That was my experience, either I had stable living situation while eating the bread of affliction, or I had temporary dwelling while eating at feasts each week.

When you are so poor you have to budget every dollar so that you have enough to make it to the end of the month you wind up eliminating all the leaven from your house. That is the feast of unleavened bread. Likewise when you are always on the move you learn to live light and again, you can't afford any leaven. You get rid of all the junk in your life.

Daniel 4:17 This matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men.

So many claiming to know God and yet don't know this verse.

The book of Daniel (part 1, chapters 1-6)

1. The book begins telling us we must eat the living word of God and not the Dainties of Babylon. We are living in an evil and adulterous age. The TV, the movies, the video games, their amusements, their entertainment, it will corrupt and corrode your mind. You will see that it will be God that will make you wise, and in order for God to work within you must eat the word of God every day, morning, noon and night.

2. Then the book presents the dream of Nebuchadnezzar as a controlling vision. This portion spans from the time of Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon, until the Great tribulation where people are cast into a great burning fire because they refuse to worship the Antichrist and his image. The three friends of Daniel depict the tribulation saints while Daniel represents the rapture ready saints, approximately a fourth of all genuine believers.

3. God sets up kings and brings them down, He puts the basest of men in power and He is able to humble the proud. We have seen this displayed in Trump being treated like a wild beast and being cut down like this tree stump and then being reinstated as President. It is reasonable to say that Trump was proud and that God has humbled him, and that he was the basest of men prior to this humbling. But this is one of the key concepts of the controlling vision. Man is trying to rule the earth and the vision of Nebuchadnezzar of the image of the Beast is the image of that rule. But they are inferior to Jesus Christ who is Lord of Lords and king of kings. When Nebuchadnezzar declares there is no God like the God of those who were delivered from the furnace of fire that is every knee bowing and every tongue confessing that Jesus is Lord. That is the conclusion of this six thousand year period to produce Jesus Christ and His bride. However, we should now see this event where Trump was put down and now reinstated as the closest event to the tribulation.

The next closest event is the Handwriting on the wall. We had three solar eclipses over the US that wrote out Aleph Tav over the US and which we call "the handwriting on the wall". The translation of that event was that the US has been weighed, like Babylon and found wanting. The final solar eclipse was in the spring of 2024. We are told that night that this evil profligate king was slain, and in the evening of 2024 Trump was reelected and we are seeing the profligates flee like rats. So then we are seeing visions and depictions of the things that take place immediately before the rapture. In fact, what is the rapture event? It is God being able to abase all those that walk in pride. Prior to the rapture there are those who think they are something, like Nebuchadnezzar they are at rest in their palaces and flourishing. Meanwhile those that are faithful to the Lord are the offscouring of all things, just like what happened to Nebuchadnezzar. They dwell with the beasts, the deplorables and those who are considered to be garbage.

At this same time we see believers, like Daniel being thrown to the Lions because they pray to God. There have been several cases in the UK of this. In fact there was a government official in another European country that quoted a Bible verse and was also thrown to the lions (in this analogy the lions represent lawyers and lawfare). In fact this dream really reminds us of the apostolic age and Foxes book of Martyrs. So then we could describe Daniel being thrown to the Lions as the dead in Christ as well as those who are alive and remain at the time of the rapture.

This is a complete summary of the major events from Daniel to the end of the age. It completes the first section of Daniel, chapters 1-6.

The second section involves Daniel's vision of Human history.

Revelation 20:7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, 8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog, and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea. 9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them. 10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

Many saints have expressed confusion about why Satan would be released again for a short while.

Let me share an experience I had which I believe reveals the wisdom behind this. I was on a PeeWee football team, the first year we went undefeated, flew down to Florida for a bowl game and won that by a very convincing margin (our third string running back had the most yards in the game and our second string defense played for half the game). The next year we had 70 kids trying out for the team when you can only have 40 on the roster. Our coach would have to cut 30 kids and many of these kids were rich kids with very powerful and influential parents. So then the coach arranged a preseason scrimmage against this team in the Bronx. Their field was composed of pebbles and broken glass. I was playing middle linebacker and the coach was rotating in these thirty kids into all kinds of different positions. It was complete confusion, none of them knew what they were doing and we were getting beat up and beaten on every play. After about an hour of this he pulled the first string out and we moved to a small corner of the field that was actually grass (it was off to the side of the football field) and our first string played against their first string. Over there where no one was watching we destroyed these guys. Every play we ran we broke for a touchdown. Meanwhile on the football field he had the assistant coaches continue to let these newbies get mauled.

The next day 30 kids quit the team telling us how terrible we were and how we would never win anything. Coach didn't have to cut anyone, they all quit of their own accord. He had used that team from the Bronx the same way God uses Satan, to separate out the wannabees from those who were legit. But if He leaves it at that we will have been left with this opinion of Satan as being powerful. Now imagine us after a thousand years of being in the presence of the Lord, filled with His glory. Now you release Satan for one more game and here we discover just how much more dominant we are now that we are well trained and filled with the Lord's glory.

That second year for the PeeWee team, the year those rich kids told us we were terrible and lose. We again were undefeated, flew to Texas and won our bowl game there. However, this year our first string never made it out of the first half of any game except for the bowl game in Texas. In fact our Championship game against the other undefeated team in our conference was over after the first quarter, that is when the first string got pulled out of the game. It was 21-0 at that point.

The book of Daniel (part 2, chapters 7-12)

Introduction

The first six chapters of Daniel begin with the Daniel choosing not to eat the Babylonian food but to eat the word of God. He and his friends are then made wise by God. Following this we are presented with a controlling vision for mankind from Nebuchadnezzar to the Millennial kingdom of Jesus Christ. The world rulers like Nebuchadnezzar are controlled by the dream without even knowing it. But Daniel can see their dream, he can interpret their dream and he can see where all this leads, which is Christ ruling and reigning.

Then the next chapter we see the earth right before Jesus rules and reigns, it is the tribulation, the law requires you worship the Antichrist and his image. However, the Christians refuse and the Lord stands with them so that everyone from the least even to the greatest confesses that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the father.

Then the next chapter shows us what happens right before this, Trump is removed from office and treated like a deplorable and garbage. This humbles him and then he is restored as president. This proves God raises up kings and sets them down and that he can make the basest of men to be president. But in this we can see the same thing with the rapture. It will be the ones the world treats as deplorables and garbage. They will be the ones lifted up by the Lord to prove that He can take even the basest felon and drug addict and raise them up to the throne. We see God's glory in His transforming sinners into saints.

Then we see this miraculous sign called the "handwriting on the wall" that lets you know that night Babylon will be overthrown. This is the sign we saw from 2017 to 2024. It was called the handwriting on the wall. It spelled out the Aleph and Tav, the initials of Jesus Christ who said He was the Aleph Tav. That sign let us all know that the US was the Great Babylon, that we were under God's judgement and as the sun goes down on this year we would be overthrown.

So who are the rapture ready saints? They are like Daniel being thrown into the Lion's den because they pray to God (as many pastors and Christians have been treated who pray outside of abortion clinics) and they refuse to worship pagan gods in a time when the laws are changed. The vaccine mandate causing many people to lose their jobs is simply one example of these days.

So I said all this to remind us where we are when we come to chapter 7. The first six chapters basically gave us a detailed account from 2020 when the pandemic hit to the tribulation and to the millennial kingdom.

Now we come to chapter 7 --

The book of Daniel (part 2, chapters 7:1-10)

This vision gives us a view of the powers that be from 2020 until the Millennial kingdom.

Chapter 7 -- The vision begins with the four winds of heaven striving upon the sea just as we saw in Genesis chapter 1. From this we see four great beasts rise up out of the sea. Based on the context these would be the four beasts that are currently here on earth in 2020.

The first one is a lion (Great Britain) who has Eagle's wings (the US). This is the first superpower on the earth at this time. He watches as the wings were plucked (the US as the Great Babylon will be brought low at the start of the tribulation just like what happened to Trump or even a reference to what happened to Trump), they were made to stand (during the trials during the tribulation the tribulation saints will be made to stand, again what happened to Trump was an example for them) and a man's heart will be given to it (just like what happened to Trump and Nebuchadnezzar and will happen to the tribulation saints).

Another beast, a bear (Russia) with three ribs between the teeth of it (referring to this current Ukraine war) and it was told to arise and devour much flesh. That is precisely what has been going on since it invaded Ukraine in 2022, many people have been killed.

Another beast is like a leopard (Islamic nations) and they have wings of a fowl! They have been given weapons from Russia and China. The beast has four heads (Iran, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, etc). Dominion was given unto it. The UN is now dominated by Islamic nations controlling the UN.

After these three he sees a fourth beast that is dreadful and terrible and exceedingly strong. That is this Beast system being run by AI and drones and robots. It was diverse from all the other beasts and it had ten horns. There are ten ways in which this AI kingdom of the Antichrist will control people and exercise authority over them. The Bible has ten commandments, this beast has ten horns.

Then we see the little horn, which is the antichrist and three horns plucked up before it perhaps referring to the US, Russia and the Islamic empires.

This vision also takes us to the millennial kingdom of Jesus.

18 O thou king, the most high God gave Nebuchadnezzar thy father a kingdom, and majesty, and glory, and honour: 19 And for the majesty that he gave him, all people, nations, and languages, trembled and feared before him: whom he would he slew; and whom he would he kept alive; and whom he would he set up; and whom he would he put down. 20 But when his heart was lifted up, and his mind hardened in pride, he was deposed from his kingly throne, and they took his glory from him: 21 And he was driven from the sons of men; and his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild asses: they fed him with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven; till he knew that the most high God ruled in the kingdom of men, and that he appointeth over it whomsoever he will. 22 And thou his son, O Belshazzar, hast not humbled thine heart, though thou knewest all this;

I believe there is a very good correlation between Babylon at the time of Daniel and the US today. At that time they took many of the sons of God from Israel captive and today the US has many of the world's born again Christians. You could argue that Trump was very proud and he was deposed and forced to live among the deplorables and that he has since come to know that the God of heaven rules in the kingdom of men. We have also learned that it is God that appoints who He will, not the elites. But we can still consider the current administration to be the son of the Trump administration, they were profligate, and they are guilty of this gross behavior before God.

23 But hast lifted up thyself against the Lord of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of his house before thee, and thou, and thy lords, thy wives, and thy concubines, have drunk wine in them; and thou hast praised the gods of silver, and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know: and the God in whose hand thy breath is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified: 24 Then was the part of the hand sent from him; and this writing was written.

We have also seen that this hand was sent. First in 2017, then 2023 and 2024. This seven year period corresponds to the seven year period for Nebuchadnezzar to be deposed. Anyway this hand refers to the solar eclipses over the US. They spelled out Aleph Tav. If you don't read the Hebrew Bible you would not know, but I think it is over 60 times in the manuscript Aleph Tav shows up and is not translated. In the New Testament Jesus said He was the Aleph Tav (alpha omega) and so these initials are like a legal document that has to have your initials on it in many places. This has been interpreted and I will try to pull up some of the posts on that which we have already posted. You can search for the "Writing on the Wall" solar eclipses, youtube posts made in 2024.

25 And this is the writing that was written, Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharsin. 26 This is the interpretation of the thing: Mene; God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it. 27 Tekel; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting. 28 Peres; Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.

I will get into the interpretation of the sign a little more in later posts.

29 Then commanded Belshazzar, and they clothed Daniel with scarlet, and put a chain of gold about his neck, and made a proclamation concerning him, that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom.

This is a picture of the raptured saints. I want everyone to understand this event precedes the rapture.

30 In that night was Belshazzar the king of the Chaldeans slain.

This gives us a very good idea of when the rapture takes place. Imagine a year is one day. This is very easy to do if you were at the North or South pole because one year = 1 day. Since the US is in the Northern hemisphere let's look at the North Pole. The sun rises during the Spring equinox (March 21), that would be sunrise, or 6am. High noon would be the summer solstice on June 21. Sunset would be the fall equinox (Sept 21). Midnight would be the winter solstice (December 21). So then for the rapture to take place that day would refer to 2024 and for Babylon to be destroyed "that night" would refer to a period of time from around October 31 to Feb 1.

Deuteronomy 28:15 But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee: ... 37 And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword, among all nations whither the Lord shall lead thee.

1 Kings 9:6 But if ye shall at all turn from following me, ye or your children, and will not keep my commandments and my statutes which I have set before you, but go and serve other gods, and worship them: 7 Then will I cut off Israel out of the land which I have given them; and this house, which I have hallowed for my name, will I cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb and a byword among all people:

2Chronicles 7:19 But if ye turn away, and forsake my statutes and my commandments, which I have set before you, and shall go and serve other gods, and worship them; 20 Then will I pluck them up by the roots out of my land which I have given them; and this house, which I have sanctified for my name, will I cast out of my sight, and will make it to be a proverb and a byword among all nations.

The book of Daniel (chapter 7)

7:12 As concerning the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away: yet their lives were prolonged for a season and time. 13 I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. 14 And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.

This chapter gives us a vision of Jesus defeating four kings before His dominion is established. Each of these four beasts had specific skills and talents, to defeat all four indicates that in all of creation there is none like the Lord. I would say this vision is of the four great kings of the last 100 years. The empire that the US inherited from Britain. Russia, Islamic nations plus China, and this AI and robot empire that is currently rising. There are six chapters in Aramaic so these six represent Jesus being king of Kings of the nations.

The other six chapters (1, 8-12) are written in Hebrew so they depict Jesus as Lord of Lord's for the Jews.

The book of Daniel (chapter 8)

This chapter appears to be a straight forward history of Israel. You have the Medo Persian empire depicted as a ram, then Alexander the Great depicted as a goat, the little horn depicts Antiochus Epiphanes a type and foreshadowing of the Antichrist.

It is interesting that we see Daniel interpret the writing on the wall and become a type and shadow of the raptured saints before we get into any of his visions. This is like having someone famous like Tom Brady or Michael Jordan come and speak to a group of people after they have retired. We want to hear from them because we now know from their career they knew what they were doing. In the same way we want to hear from the raptured saints after they are raptured because being raptured convinces us they knew what they were talking about.

The book of Daniel (chapter 9)

In this chapter we see Daniel begin with a reference to Israel returning from the 70 years of captivity.

9:8 O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee. 9 To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgivenesses, though we have rebelled against him; 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.

The way I look at it, you have the raptured saints which include the dead in Christ. So this can include saints who have died over thousands of years including the apostles. Then you have the left behind saints who are like the second string on the football team. When you pull the first string off they go on. This group includes 144,000 who are Jewish saints, redeemed by the blood of Jesus. Then they are pulled off the field and you get the third string. These are the Jews. Not the Jews who were Messianic Jews receiving Jesus Christ as the Messiah but the most obstinate that would not repent and turn to the Lord until they saw the two witnesses raised from death. This is like doubting Thomas. Jesus said that those who did not need to have physical proof before believing the testimony and witness of others were more blessed.

Complete Decode of Dana Coverstone's "Rockwell" Dream

This dream lines up with the start of war in Ukraine and ultimately war in the US.

(There is nothing going on outside) is what we have been told in church concerning current events. It seemed most churches, especially the "higher authority" which would be the Pope, the Denominations and the board of directors. The dream does describe three kids which would be pastors of non denominational churches who did connect the dots to what was going on outside with prophecies.

The painting has 11 people and you also have the person who is painting this picture, they are there too, so this would be 12.

(Ignore what is happening outside because nothing is happening outside) this is what many Christians have been told and what they in turn repeated to us.

(The house is shaking) think of what we have seen with LGBTQ+ in churches along with AI writing sermons. We are watching a shaking as many believers can no longer tolerate what is happening and are leaving.

The grandmother keeps her eye on the three kids who are looking outside. So these pastors who are speaking concerning current events and prophecies, people like Jonathan Cahn, Robert Breaker, and Dana Coverstone, these ones are being surveilled.

Let's eat and pretend it's all good -- this cannot be prior to the rapture because prior to that they are eating and drinking without any clue stuff is going on. I believe, we should tie this in to Vicky Goforth Parnell's dream. Both indicate the rapture has already taken place.

It is interesting that this was a "rural church" because I suspect the major cities may have been wiped out during the rapture.

I would also point out the word of God is a double edged sword. Yes, Thanksgiving, the holiday, is always on Thursday. But since this is a picture of a feast for Christians it is a picture of the Lord's table which is on the Lord's day.

There is a debate between the Grandmother and the grandson over whether or not the food is good. Obviously this can refer to spiritual food that we are being fed in the church, but it can also refer to the famine that comes on the whole earth during the seven year tribulation.

The guy doing the interpretation says that wormwood refers to the false prophet and that may be true spiritually, but all spiritual realities have physical shadows of that reality. So although the false prophets do make the water on the earth toxic and bitter, I also believe there will be an asteroid that will hit the earth and do the same.

Notice how deep into the dream he notices the people look malnourished and ill fitting on them. This indicates that they have gone through a period of famine, I would think at least a year. So this dream shows us a progression:

1. Close the blinds -- nothing to see outside

2. Censor those who continue to look outside -- Shut up, there is nothing outside

3. False claim that the food is good when the food is obviously not good, it is bitter.

4. Famine -- people have clearly lost weight and not in a good way, they are pale, sickly, and emaciated.

This spiritual reality precedes the physical shadow. First we see this in the apostate church and then we will see this in the world.

The conclusion of the dream is a missile hits the house and destroys it. The house clearly being the apostate church and the three who survive being the remnant.

The interpreter equates seeking the truth and being saved to being catholic. Obviously I do not agree with that.

I would point out one more thing about this dream. It surely is a reference to Thanksgiving and so that should be seen as part of the prophecy. The Lord could have had other dinner scenes. It is also clearly a reference to America as Norman Rockwell is a uniquely Americana painter. It is also a reference to World War 2 as this was the context of this painting. Since they refer to the grandfather as "your pastor" it is also clearly a reference to the church meetings and our being fed in them. There were four people out of the 12 that were saved, Dana being one of the four. But it is interesting that he doesn't dive under the table and he doesn't feel the heat. He may signify the raptured saints prior to the tribulation. Then Jesus shows up, likening this meal to the Lord's table with the twelve disciples.

The house, indicating the apostate church, is clearly destroyed with fire on Thanksgiving. I think we should see that as part of the prophecy.

Complete Decode of Dana Coverstone's "Rockwell" Dream

This dream lines up with the start of war in Ukraine and ultimately war in the US.

(There is nothing going on outside) is what we have been told in church concerning current events. It seemed most churches, especially the "higher authority" which would be the Pope, the Denominations and the board of directors. The dream does describe three kids which would be pastors of non denominational churches who did connect the dots to what was going on outside with prophecies.

The painting has 11 people and you also have the person who is painting this picture, they are there too, so this would be 12.

(Ignore what is happening outside because nothing is happening outside) this is what many Christians have been told and what they in turn repeated to us.

(The house is shaking) think of what we have seen with LGBTQ+ in churches along with AI writing sermons. We are watching a shaking as many believers can no longer tolerate what is happening and are leaving.

The grandmother keeps her eye on the three kids who are looking outside. So these pastors who are speaking concerning current events and prophecies, people like Jonathan Cahn, Robert Breaker, and Dana Coverstone, these ones are being surveilled.

Let's eat and pretend it's all good -- this cannot be prior to the rapture because prior to that they are eating and drinking without any clue stuff is going on. I believe, we should tie this in to Vicky Goforth Parnell's dream. Both indicate the rapture has already taken place.

It is interesting that this was a "rural church" because I suspect the major cities may have been wiped out during the rapture.

I would also point out the word of God is a double edged sword. Yes, Thanksgiving, the holiday, is always on Thursday. But since this is a picture of a feast for Christians it is a picture of the Lord's table which is on the Lord's day.

There is a debate between the Grandmother and the grandson over whether or not the food is good. Obviously this can refer to spiritual food that we are being fed in the church, but it can also refer to the famine that comes on the whole earth during the seven year tribulation.

The guy doing the interpretation says that wormwood refers to the false prophet and that may be true spiritually, but all spiritual realities have physical shadows of that reality. So although the false prophets do make the water on the earth toxic and bitter, I also believe there will be an asteroid that will hit the earth and do the same.

Notice how deep into the dream he notices the people look malnourished and ill fitting on them. This indicates that they have gone through a period of famine, I would think at least a year. So this dream shows us a progression:

1. Close the blinds -- nothing to see outside

2. Censor those who continue to look outside -- Shut up, there is nothing outside

3. False claim that the food is good when the food is obviously not good, it is bitter.

4. Famine -- people have clearly lost weight and not in a good way, they are pale, sickly, and emaciated.

This spiritual reality precedes the physical shadow. First we see this in the apostate church and then we will see this in the world.

The conclusion of the dream is a missile hits the house and destroys it. The house clearly being the apostate church and the three who survive being the remnant.

The interpreter equates seeking the truth and being saved to being catholic. Obviously I do not agree with that.
There is another similarity. Thanksgiving offering is a freewill offering, just like Peter told Ananias and Saphira, they were not required to give a thanksgiving offering to God, but if they did they needed to be true and not use the offering to manipulate others. Barnabas gave an offering then Ananias and Saphira did. In that story 1/3 of them lived, 2/3 died. In this dream 3 people live and 8 die, but then you have to include Dana Coverstone who is also part of those that live. So in this dream it is also one third that live and two thirds that die. Which is quite interesting because it is the same with Israel in Revelation, one third live and two thirds die.

2 Corinthians 1:4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.

We get a ministry when the Lord delivers us from all our tribulation. Ex felons get a prison ministry, ex drug addicts get a ministry to those on drugs, etc.

The Gospel of Mark is to those left behind. Mark abandoned the ministry, got helped by Peter who himself had denied the Lord three times, and now Mark has the ministry to those who deny the Lord and are left behind. So I wondered, what makes Mark unique, how does he minister to those who are left behind? The gospel is unique in the action verbs and the immediacy. The issue he had was he didn't put the word of God into action and he didn't treat the word of God with immediacy. Once he is restored he realizes that is the key focus of his ministry.

So then, what about Luke, that is to those that are raptured before the tribulation. Luke must have also been comforted in all his affliction and then comforted others with the same comfort he received. Luke is unique in that it focuses on those who are considered unimportant in society: Children, women, the poor, and the downtrodden.
