I don't even know if I can get this out in the mail the way my computer is working.   If this is the year; I believe the market is going to crash; many major banks are going to fail and a major war will break out before the end of March.   This is how I have felt since about 25 years ago.   If the Rapture doesn't happen by April's end; I believe it is months or years from now.   I also have to believe the Antichrist has to appear in a matter of weeks after that war begins-if the time is this year as well.   Is it possible we can identify him just before our "snatching away?"   I don't know.   I won't discount any statements about the summer being the time of the Rapture either; this is just my "gut feeling" on the subject.   Even if we can see who it is; once the financial system collapses and we are unable to get money out of the bank; our greedy and materialistic culture will soon col! lapse o n itself-I would certainly expect martial law; and a total breakdown of society to ensue.   Like; say you could have a matter of fact talk with someone about this subject today; give it a few weeks of breakdown in this country and there will be few; I mean FEW who will listen.
 
While I am on the subject of who we are to talk to let me "borrow" some of the wisdom of others; who have talked of how hell has no children in it (according to all accounts I have heard-and I certainly believe God waits until an age of accountability for that sort of judgment).   I have to believe that Satan is going to really wage full scale warfare on the very young-pre teens in particular to accept the mark of the beast in coming years.   After all kids get credit cards; colleges are letting not only co-ed dorms but co-ed INDIVIDUAL rooms in such places today.   Unfortunately; the morality of the older generations today seems to let me down a lot--so my point is this; sow the seeds there.   If we are to see some real last minute "11th hour" believers who will be raptured out of here I would feel strongly that these are the ones to reach.
 
 
 
I definitely believe that the Spirit of God is what we are to trust in for our needs; whatever material wealth has been accumulated will soon be of little value.   That being said it is certainly wise to have provisions; extra money; food; etc. for if WE aren't here surely there are those left behind who will have some use for that stuff for a time before it is declared worthless (and gold and silver are cast into the streets; etc.)   I am a person who tried to accumulate some financial wealth through coin collections over the years; if I had trusted more in God I wouldn't have had to sell my stuff as often and would have made several thousand dollars instead of just a few hundred in recent years with the value of silver doubling in that period of time.   Interestingly; it seems that values have fallen (the better part of 2 dollars an ounce for silver in the past week alone; despite the market going down some 500 points or so! .    In short; I felt God give me some idea of when to invest money in coins; but since I didn't have enough wisdom and guts to give more to God over the years; I lost more than I gained it seems.
 
At any rate; we can expect famine in this country followed by the other seal judgments; such as disease and yes; even martyrdom in a matter of months after the Rapture occurs (although I could still see the worst things happening at first in the Middle East nations).   Despite all this of course I have to look at other possibilities; such as the 2000 years of grace being counted as beginning at Christ's crucifixion/ressurection-throwing the timeline off another 20 years or so.
 
I wanted to reiterate the fact that with all dispensations; God chooses to end whatever the age is with the downfall of the system of worship; until He rules-and as with the rule of law; the time of the Kings of Israel; the original age of innocence; this age of grace has to end with failure; in fact the churches of today will be those of Antichrist worship in the future!   It is His people where His Spirit lives and breathes; and as Sheri Vance (sorry if the name is off a bit here)  has mentioned; and others have stated we are to leave our tents (outer body) to be with Christ and put on a new body.   We all have to look at ourselves if we want to be worthy for the Rapture; I believe this and many others do as well.   As we allow His Spirit and our love for God alone to be our standard we cannot play games with sin!    Maybe it is my own wickedness; I don't know-we are certainly our own worst enemies. ! ;  Sometimes it takes time to understand what is causing whatever is distracting our minds and hearts from fully walking in the Spirit but we have got to do it.    It seems to be easier (I like to think so anyway) for others I know to walk with Christ; but God is worthy; are we willing to be all we want him to be?
 
The article about Nisan 10-well it is interesting; the best writing I have seen by this individual; I would urge her to hurry up and get out the rest of her notes!    If He is coming soon it is important wisdom if not I am sure God will give her more wisdom.    What is interesting for me is that I prayed a while back for a one month warning before He comes; and I read that article on Feb 28th; calling for a possible March 29 rapture.   I am afraid I am like that guy in Sodom and Gomorrah; I am going to ask for more signs; say a 10 day warning; 7 day warning and like 24 hour warning I will seriously have to be outside somewhere if that happens!!!
