THE SIGNS COME AND THE SIGNS GO. GOD IS CONSTANT
Jesus said that of that day and hour nobody knows. He also said that at a time we think not, the Son of man is going to come for us. In other words, because we are expecting Him on a specific day, He most probably will not come that day.
Further, there is no dating the rapture. No matter how many patterns show up, and I have watched, believe me, I realize that Jesus could come on any day in the rapture. Just because I believe that we are nearing the mid point of Daniel's prophecy of the 70 weeks does not mean that Jesus has to come for us now. He will only HAVE to come for us as an absolute rescue mission from an absolute horrific event.
Having said all of that, I will now say this. The revealing of the image of the beast on Feb 13/14 is extremely significant. And the many messages from the Lord to His little ones (us) is also extremely both significant and important. But the prophecies are also super-extremely significant and important and one of these, I believe, is the Song of Solomon for reasons I have posted over and over. The flora and agricultural signs must be taken into serious consideration, I also believe. The Spring equinox, the onset of the signs in the Song of Solomon is not very far away, just a month. That may be the opening of our rapture time in 2023 as seen in the Song 2:10. It says to “Arise my love, my fair one, and come away”.
One thing is very clear to me, though. It is the fact that the covid 19 curse came on the last day of 2019 as it went to the first day of 2020. If, and I say if, that is the start of the final 7 years of Daniel's prophecy, then it counts this way. 2020 = 366 days; 2021 = 365 days, 2022 = 365 days and finally adding 45 days from January 1 to February 13/14, when the beast idol was set up = 44 days. Altogether that totals 1,140 days to Valentine's Day. If one adds the 4 months or 120 days of soul harvest by Laodicea to that it comes to 1,260 days. That is the time value of one half of the 70th week of Daniel's prophecy.
This is important because of John 4:33-35 where Jesus, speaking to His disciples, said (and I paraphrase), that the fall wheat harvest is 4 months or 120 days away, but the barley is ripe now. This may have referenced a period of 120 days or 4 months for the soul harvest time.
If the above is the first half of the 70th week of Daniel's prophecy, then sometime in the next 120 days the rapture may occur in order to transform the Laodicea Christians into bodies that can go out and perform the harvest. That 120 days count goes from February 13/14 to June 13/14, 2023. That time frame covers all of the signs of the Song of Solomon chapter 2:10-13 ending with the figs and the grape vines giving a good smell, and it then arrives at the signs given in chapter 6:12-13, where the Shulamite, i. e. Laodicea Church is raptured. In other words it goes from the rapture of the Philadelphia Christians to the rapture of the left behind Laodicea Christians.
I am of the opinion that we will not wait long now for our rapture. I think time is of the absolute essence. But of the day, I cannot say. Of the hour, I cannot say. But God has His appointed time and He can and will certainly say. If it is to be on a Thursday, as Brother Charles has maintained that he was told with many confirmations, then as Thursday, February 16 has passed, I will look to next week, Thursday, February 23. If that happens to be our rapture time, then the end of the harvest may be on June 20, the last day of Spring and/or the first day of Summer. Perfect timing, I think.
