Patterns in prophecy
When Lot was safely out of Sodom and Gomorrah
judgement quickly ensued.
When Noah was safely sealed in the Ark
Judgement quickly ensued.
When Gods people safely crossed the Red Sea
Judgement quickly ensued.
And In Egypt
When Gods people placed the
Blood of the Lamb
on the doorpost
Judgement Passed over them.
Could these patterns be a hint as to who, how and when
God will protect His people from Judgement?
The who:
Those covered by the blood of the Lamb
tribulation saints and those
counted worthy to escape the tribulation
and the 144000 who are sealed.
The how:
Tribulation Saints are Martyred
Those counted worthy to escape the Tribulation
appear to die a natural death,
and the 144000 who are sealed appear to remain alive
through the entire Tribulation and are
with Jesus when He arrives at the Mount of Olives
to pour out His wrath.
Raptured 10 days before on the
Feast of Trumpets.
Will the Rapture occur 7 years before the tribulation?
I sure hope so!
But I don't see any previous patterns of how God delivered His people from tribulation 7 years before it happened in fact
Jesus said
These things I have spoken unto you,
that in me ye might have peace.
In the world ye shall have tribulation:
but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
John 16:33 KJV
Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer:
behold, the devil shall cast [some] of you into prison,
that ye may be tried;
and ye shall have tribulation ten days:
be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.
Revelation 2:10 KJV
God will deliver us at just the right time!
With every passing day
it is looking more and more like we are in the midst of the Tribulation
and VERY close to the Lords return!
Matthew 24:29-31
seems to insinuate that the catching away (Rapture)
will occur after the Tribulation but before His wrath.
Just like in the days of Noah and Lot.
Try telling Christians in the Middle East and Africa this isn't the tribulation!
Did you know that whoever lives and believes
in Jesus
shall NEVER die?
[John 11:25-26 NKJV]
Jesus said to her,
"I am the resurrection and the life.
He who believes in Me,
though he may die, he shall live.
26 "And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die.
Do you believe this?"
What if those who have died in Christ are those
who have been counted worthy not to suffer Tribulation?
After all, they are present with the Lord!
There's no Tribulation with Him!
Or maybe those living in the United States
and other countries who have/or had the freedom to
PRAISE THE NAME OF JESUS
and have food clothing and shelter
are those
who have been counted worthy not to suffer Tribulation?
See Luke 21:36
We know this tetrad of Blood Red Moons
on the
Feasts of the Lord
are a sign from God!
how?
GOD'S WORD SAYS THEY ARE!
Genesis 1:14
But a sign of what?
Could it be a sign to
ALL BELIEVERS in JESUS
NOT TO WORRY?
After all we are covered by the Blood of the Lamb?
All Judgments and Tribulations
will either pass-over us
or
we will be caught away (raptured) at just the right time!
We are not appointed to wrath!
But don't confuse "Wrath" with "Tribulation"!
The signs are all around us!
Scoffers will say:
these signs have been happening for thousands of years.
And in fact many have.
But the end times began thousands of years ago when Jesus resurrected from the dead
some 1981 years ago.
If the final week of Daniel began when Israel became a Nation
then we are in the final days of the end times
that is, if a generation is 70 years
and you allow for
the days being shortened!
In fact if Daniel 9:25 (7X7=49+360=17640) was unsealed June 7th 1967
when Israel recaptured Jerusalem
we COULD only have 487 days remaining
before
Jesus's feet land
On
The Mount of Olives
but who's counting?
I'm sure it's just a coincidence
that 17640 days from 6/7/1967
adds up to
9/23/2015
Yom Kippur
The day of Atonement!
And 10 days before that
there is a solar eclipse on
9/13/2015
The Feast of Trumpets!
And two weeks after that
just 5 days after Yom Kippur
there just so happens to be a
Super Moon
on what just so happens to be the final
lunar eclipse in the Tetrad
which also just so happens to be
The Feast Of Tabernacles!
Is it possible Jesus was using an idiom when He said:
But of that day and hour knoweth no [man],
no,
not the angels of heaven,
but my Father only.
Matthew 24:36 KJV
and
What day is Jesus referring to?
His second coming or the rapture of the church?
I believe He is referring to the rapture or the day He comes for His Bride!
and
I find it interesting that there is a Jewish
Idiom for the
Feast of Trumpets
as the
"Feast that no one knows the day or hour of"
since it's a two day Feast.
It is also interesting that the partial solar eclipse
(not visible in the US or Israel)
occurs over two days
in 2015

Let God be true but every man a liar!
My encouragement to you
if you are a believer
who trusts in Jesus for your Salvation,
Is to FEARLESSLY proclaim the WORD OF GOD!
You have NOTHING to fear!
Jesus conquered
SIN & DEATH!
Ponder this Believers:
YOU are NOT your Flesh!
You are not the person you look at in the mirror!
YOU shall NEVER die!
In fact
You pass from life in this body
to eternal life with Jesus
in the twinkling of an eye!
When you leave this body
pain, torture and suffering end!
Death has lost it's sting!
For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy
[to be compared]
with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
[Romans 8:18 NKJV]
Believers covered by the blood of the Lamb,
will not only pass through the fire and the flood (Isaiah 43:1-28)
but through every kind of death into eternal life!
