WHAT AND WHEN IS THE ACCEPTABLE YEAR OF THE LORD ?..............

The following Scriptures have a common thread connecting them all together to convey a prophetic message for us to understand :

Isiah 49:8

"Thus saith the Lord, IN AN ACCEPTABLE TIME have I heard thee, and IN A DAY OF SALVATION have I helped thee , and I WILL PRESERVE THEE.."

Isaiah 61:2

"To proclaim THE ACCEPTABLE YEAR of the Lord, and THE DAY OF VENGEANCE of our God."

Isaiah 63:4

"For THE DAY OF VENGEANCE is in My heart, and THE YEAR OF MY REDEEMED is come."

Luke 4:18-19 ( the Lord speaking )

"The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me because He has anointed Me.......... to preach THE ACCEPTABLE YEAR of the Lord."

2 Corinthians 6:2 ( the Lord speaking to Paul )

"For He saith, I have heard thee in A TIME ACCEPTED, and in THE DAY OF SALVATION have I secured thee ; behold , now is THE ACCEPTED TIME ; behold,  now is THE DAY OF SALVATION  ."

SO, THERE YOU HAVE IT.

The Day of Salvation on which God will preserve us by redeeming us is the  Day of the Rapture that will happen at a time accepted by the Lord during the acceptable year of the Lord in which His vengeance will also occur. God's vengeance is spoken of in :

 Ezekiel 38:16

"It shall be in THE LATTER DAYS that I WILL BRING YOU AGAINST MY LAND that THE GENTILES may know Me when I shall be sanctified in thee , O GOG, BEFORE THEIR EYES."

SO, THERE YOU HAVE IT.

IN THE LATTER DAYS God will take HIS VENGEANCE UPON ISRAEL for a visual sign BEFORE THE EYES of the watching THE GENTILE CHURCH to let us know that our redemption is near. God says that the rapture will not happen before Jesus has His vengeance upon Israel by using the Gog Army as His weapon of vengeance upon them. The fulfillment of the Lord's last prophecy must occur before the rapture.

According to Your Word , come Lord Jesus !
