"15th of Nisan - Rapture Day?"


 
Hello John and Doves,
 
If the 10th of Nisan passes with no Rapture - then I'll be looking to the 15th of Nisan.
 
I can think of many reasons as to why the 15th of Nisan, Passover, April 15, 16, 17 depending on if the sighting of the new moon is used or not, would be a contender for The Day of the Rapture.  We can know when Passover is, because 15th Nisan is a full moon.
 
In Israel, this year, Passover begins on April 15th and concludes on the 22nd.
 
Aaron at God A Minute youtube channel has put quite a bit of time into searching for The Biblical Pattern for a Rapture April 16/17.  He's looked at various days/dates for a couple of years on his videos on youtube, but he's pretty excited about this April Passover date.  This is the most excited that I have seen him about 'a date'.

Later he added this youtube:  He told us April 2022 Rapture Passover and over and over and over....

Some 50 diplomats from around the world celebrated Passover with a 'mock Seder' at the U.N., joining the Israeli Ambassador to the U.N., Gilad Erdan.

There has been a recent increase in terror attacks in Israel that the country is dealing with and Israel is hoping the Iran nuclear talks collapse as Biden refuses to remove the Iranian Guards from the terror list.  "The Israeli leadership now hopes that keeping the U.S. designation of the Guards as a "foreign terrorist organization" would be met with Iranian resistance, potentially leading to the collapse of talks between Tehran and world powers who have been negotiating in Vienna in bid to salvage the 2015 nuclear deal."

We'll see if Biden and the U.S. stand strong with Israel on this.  If they do, there is no guarantee that this will be so unacceptable to Iran that this will be a deal breaker.  Iran could still push ahead with the deal.  Arab nations in the area support Israel on this - that "delisting the Guards would send a terrible message to America's allies, who are often on the receiving end of attacks by the elite Iranian paramilitary force."

At the Jewish Seder, "A ceremonial wine cup, called Elijah's cup, which is poured for family Seders, in Judaism. ..legend states that...Elijah will walk into this world as an unknown guest to make way for Messiah."  Families celebrating the Seder meal welcome Elijah by symbolically opening their doors.

"After the church is raptured, the Holy Spirit will empower two witnesses who will prophesy during the Tribulation - not just one, but two - to meet the requirements of the Jewish law.  With darkness pressing in all around, these faithful men will shine the light of truth by power of God's Spirit...Much like their Old Testament predecessors, these witnesses will be true prophets, speaking by divine revelation and performing miracles under the authority of Christ.  For three-and-a-half years, they will warn the world of God's coming judgment."

Revelation 11:3 tells us these two witnesses will prophesy for 1,260 days, clothed in sackcloth.  They are "the two olive trees" and the two lampstands,..."  Some believe these two men are Enoch and Elijah.  Or Moses may be one of the two.  Enoch and Elijah were two prophets who did not died - because God took them.  Moses did die.  So Enoch and Elijah could be the two witnesses who die in the streets of Jerusalem at the end of their 1260 days long assignment on Earth...then they are resurrected 3 days later.  Moses would have to die twice, so I don't think he's a good contender for one of the witnesses.

If what the Jews do at the Seder is indeed prophetic for the End Times, then the Tribulation would start the 1260 day count on Passover - with the arrival of Elijah (and the second witness).  Many believe that the appearance of these two witnesses is a sign that verifies the final Tribulation years have begun.  The Tribulation is Jacob's trouble, not the church's trouble.  Once the believer's are gone, the last weeks of Daniel 70 week prophecy will begin.
 
It's possible that the Rapture will occur before the start of the Tribulation, like on 10th Nisan, and then four days later the Tribulation starts.  Or they could both be on the same day.  
 
This year, 2022, with everything going on with a shadow of darkness spreading around the world, I am hoping THIS resurrection season is our last here on Earth.
 
Happy Resurrection Day!  Happy Passover/Pesach!
 
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!
 
Maranatha!
