WE ARE NOT AT THE BEGINNING, NO, WE ARE AT THE END OF THE END

Not than any man or woman could out-think God. Oh no, of course not. But with things coming about at breakneck speed, and clearly identified in the Holy Book, and knowing the Book is the very words of God Almighty, I must say with a degree of certainty that the end of the end is now here.

It did not come as I expected, with a Church Age and then seven years of tribulation on the left behind ones. And I have had so many surprises since 1988 that I can't begin to catalog them. But we are in the very end of the end of the Age of Grace and the beginning of tribulation and it is the great tribulation at that.

I am convinced that the final count began on September 22/23, 2017. And all counts herein are inclusive of the first day.

On that date, the constellation Virgo formed perfectly to match the description given in Revelation 12. That began the prophecy of Daniel's final week of 7 years of 360 days each. That count came to 7 years x 360 days per year to equal 2,520 days, divided in Scripture into two periods of 1,260 days each. So, from September 22/23, 2017, counting forward 1,260 days, we come to March 4/5, 2020. This was the start date of corona virus in America. This virus has changed America, I believe, forever. Things will never be “normal” again.

The final 1,260 days is carefully identified to be the time of the anti-christ's reign on earth. But, in Daniel chapter 12, we find the prophet recording a conversation with the archangel Gabriel and in that conversation an addition 30 days plus another 45 days are identified. That is a total of 75 additional days that fit somewhere. Since the end of anti-christ and his false prophet are at the end of the final 1,260 days, then I think the 75 days must add to the first period of 1,260 days. Thus, if we add another 30 days we come to April 3/4, 2021 and if we add 45 more days we come to May 18/19, 2021. And if this is the beginning count of the final 1,260 days of anti-christ reign, we arrive finally at October 30/31.

Could there be a more fitting day than Halloween eve? This is the anti-christ's and the false prophet's death day in the lake of fire. The dishonor of being the first humans cast into that lake.

Very important to Jesus and to us is the fate of those Christians left behind at the rapture of the Philadelphia Christians. The order of the rapture event is that first the dead in Christ are raised and then we, who are alive will be caught up with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. Notice carefully that it is the Philadelphia Church Christians who are caught up, not the Laodicea Church Christians. Both Churches are Christian or they would not be Churches. But one is not ready because of failure to walk with Jesus after He so graciously saved them.

Now a subject needs to be addressed that will affect the Laodiceans. That subject is how long will they have to remain behind before they, too, are raptured? I believe the time is five months or 150 days. I think the time is found in Revelation 9 where men are tormented terribly. And I propose that this tormentors are the corona viruses. And the stingers are the needles administering the too quickly developed and too quickly made vaccines. Revelation 9:3-6 could be interpreted to be like this:

“And there came out of the smoke locusts (viruses) upon (all) the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power (to sting and inflict pain). And it was commanded them (by God) that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree, but only those men which have not the seal of God (salvation) in their foreheads (both Philadelphia and Laodicean Christians have this seal and the Laodiceans will be in transformed bodies which are immune to the virus and the vaccines). And to them (the viruses, obviously a more potent batch than are here now) it was given that they (the viruses) should not kill them (the victims), but that they should be tormented five months (150 days): and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion when he striketh a man (the mutated version of corona virus will make people very sick and the vaccines will make matters worse, but not kill them and the duration of the illness could last up to 150 days per illness). And in those days (150 days) shall men seek death, and shall not find it (they will be very ill) and shall desire to die (to get out of the misery) and death will flee from them (by God's command)”

Their description that follows makes the viruses appear like warriors, horrible warriors, and that is in fact what they are. The war against the body. And they are world wide even as I write this. And a mutated version is bound to show up sooner or later. And this is only the first of three woes!

Back now to the Laodicean Christians left here in transformed bodies that cannot be hurt or killed. These are they that will bring in a harvest of souls from all this misery so great that they cannot be numbered. And just before the anti-christ takes his throne, they will be raptured (Song of Solomon 6:12). We deduce then that the left behind Christians will be taken after serving 150 days. So what is the start date of the 150 days? December 21, 2020, the very day of the planetary conjuction or perhaps better put, the Bethlehem star.

And I think this has a real shot at the being the sign of the Son of man spoken of in Scripture. “And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, AND THEY SHALL SEE THE SON OF MAN COMING IN THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN (I Thess 4:16-18) WITH POWER AND GREAT GLORY. and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn And He shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together His elect, from one end of heaven to the other. (Matt 24:30,31).

Time to go home saints.
