"RAPTURE IS A SUMMER
EVENT, IS IT NOT?"
In Matthew 24, Jesus indicated that the rapture event is
when the fig tree is bloomed. He said this in verses 32 and
33, "Now learn a parable of the fig tree: When its branch is
yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that SUMMER (caps
mine) is near; So likewise when ye see all these things, know that
it is near, even at the doors." (KJV) No mention of
the Fall season here.
This seems to militate against a Rosh Hashana rapture inasmuch as
this day is in the FALL.
Further, a RHH rapture would occur on an expected day.
However, we are told that "in an hour that ye think not the Son of
Man cometh" (Matt 24:44). I think August 21/22 is an
excellent hour when we think not. And IT IS in the
summertime.
I further I suspect that Israel may act before September's
strangle hold on her destiny by the U. N. in her own
self-defense. This may mean action this month.
I am really taken by the twice count of 234 days, from Jan 1 to
August 21/22 and Aug 21/22 to the rise of the A/C on April 11/12,
2012. It seems to bracket a two day period. This is
neat!
But as always, we will see.
