Wow...to think, I didn't want to give that date much thought!  I almost dismissed reading Ron's insight because it was soo off target from the traditional Jewish Feasts most watchers have been looking at.

 

Without me searching the scriptures PURPOSELY, I read carefully Revelation 4:1 then went to Ezekiel 1:1 as there was a reference to it in my Bible.

 

So watch carefully and follow the 'bouncing ball'. [Big grin]

 

Revelation 4:1  (Amplified version)

 

AFTER THIS I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven! And the first voice which I had heard addressing me like [the calling of] a war trumpet said, Come up here, and I will show you what must take place in the future.

 

Ezekiel 1:1

 

Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river of Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.

 

I think most of us if not all of us agree Revelation 4:1 is a picture of the Rapture. Notice how the Amplified version used the words "A WAR TRUMPET".

 

As I looked at Ezekiel 1:1, I (naturally) noticed the number 11 in chapter 1 vs 1.  My bible has a Jewish Civil and Jewish sacred calendar. 

 

The 4th month is TeVet which is December/January in the Gregorian calendar.

 

If the LORD has truly revealed this day to us as the Rapture date, He has just given us yet another 'confirmation' of January 11.

 

It fits nicely with Ron's insight of the rapture and sudden destruction.  The bookends vision is also very meaningful to me.

 

I don't know you saints of the Most High God, but speaking for myself, I try to live a holy and sanctified life, sharing the gospel when I can, praying w/o ceasing praying for the Body of Christ to be set apart, to be holy, sanctified, pleasing to God.  I pray for the unbelievers to come to know and surrender the lives to Jesus Christ who loves us all soo very much, that they may be spared the wrath of God.  I pray for our leaders and for the leaders of the world.

 

I pray "Come Quickly Lord Jesus" for the Spirit and the Bride say "Come."

 

Lastly, I pray that I would NOT be deceived!  I'm confident none of us want to be deceived.  So if we are truly seeking the Wisdom and Guidance of the Holy Spirit to reveal to us when our Bridegroom is coming, I know our LORD would not let Satan pull our chain.  God will not be mocked. 

 

God would not have told Daniel to seal the book even to the time of the end.

The time of the END (end times) has arrived.  The book has been opened for us to search the scriptures.

 

Come Quickly Lord Jesus.
