Regarding John’s post: Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward is great in heaven
Wow! Let me start a list of the reasons I saw in John’s post pointing us to watch for a June 23, 2025 Bride Theft. All these reasons may provide a body of evidence to finally unlock what I see as a three dimensional puzzle with Jesus Christ being the chief cornerstone pointing to the perfect timing when He will return for His Virgin Bride. I counted 8 reasons in John’s post.
1. Luke 6:23, the 2025 verse of the New Testament, pointing to 6/23/2025
2. Verse 25170 pointing to the year 25 as in 2025 and around the 170th day of the year. 6/19 is exactly the 170th day while 6/23 is the 174th day. If one started a 7 day countdown on day 170 one would reach 174 in the middle of that countdown. We are in the same week. Which many have used Matthew 24:36 as a proof text 2,000 years later that no one knew nor will anyone know the day or the hour of the Rapture. Which from a prima facia standpoint these same people cannot deny then that this verse therefore implies WE WILL KNOW THE WEEK! And the 170th day is less than a week from the 174th day.
But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. Matthew 24:36
3. Seven times 89, the sum of the standard and ordinal gematria of “go”, the common word in Jim Bramlett’s 7 Rapture clues, is 623.
4. The Hebrew gematria of Holy Spirit / Ruach HaKodesh (רוּח הקֹדֶשׁ;link) is 623.
5. The Hebrew value for "man and wife" (אִישׁ וָאִשָׁה) is 623.
6. As shown in Exodus 20:1, God spoke "all these words" (כָּל־הַדְּבָרִ֥ים הָאֵ֖לֶּה לֵאמֹֽר), as in the Ten Commandments (vs 3-17), which the Hebrew value is 623.
7. As shown in Isaiah 11:2, there are 14 in-text Hebrew words. Taking the second word onwards (not including the first for "rest"), the Hebrew gematria is 2025 + 623.
Pretty impressive! It would be altogether fitting and proper for John to have exactly 7 reasons pointing possibly to 6/23/25. One, I would say, John is leading us as his reader to draw this conclusion without him coming out and saying this is a date to watch. But, what’s more impressive than 7 reasons? Eight reasons, which the number 8 has so many references to the Rapture, double 8 or 88 as in double infinity symbol as in double eternity. So, with out further adieu, John’s 8th reason I saw in his post was:
8. The Apostle John, the best rapture type in the New Testament, wrote 1415 verses in five books. John's verse 623 is verse 793 counting from the end, the easily recognized gematria of what, or more appropriately, follows the Rapture, BHO IMHO.
Thanks, John!
But I realize now we may be only scratching the surface of what secrets 6/23/25 may hold as a Bride Theft Rapture Watch day. The most excited I had gotten about a watch day before was all the reasons to watch the 88th day of 2025, 3/29/25 which led to a series of posts.

2 Mar 2025: 8+8+8+8 Reasons to Watch the 88th Day of 2025 (3/29/25) for the Bride Rapture
23 Mar 2025: March 29, 2025 6:58 AM EDT (10:58 GMT) New Moon – Hear the Trumpet Blow?
But as much as I got excited about the 88th day of 2025, I am getting DOUBLY excited about 6/23/2025, literally. I mean literally. So, let’s add that reason and others we find to John’s 8 reasons.
9. June 23, 2025, the 174th day of 2025, is in the same week as the 88th day DOUBLED which brings us to the 176th day of 2025, June 25, 2025. For that matter, that’s within a couple of days!
10. This year, 9/23 is the Feast of Trumpets, probably the most popular Jewish high Feast days of the 7 to watch for the Rapture . Note that by reversing the numbers in 9/23 as 923 horizontally one gets 329 as was done to get the 3/29 watch date. Likewise, by reversing the numbers 923 in 9/23 vertically of those that reverse vertically, one gets 623 as in 6/23/2025.
11. Meeting in the middle. From 3/29/2025, the 88th day of the year, to 9/23/2025, the 266th day of the year, is 178 days. Half of 178 days is 89 days. Remember John’s number 89 and 7 times it which equals 623? So halfway between 3/29/2025 and 9/23/2025 is 88 + 89 = the 177th day which is 6/26/2025, the same week as 6/23/2025.
12. Blow the Trumpet at the New Moon. A trumpet blast is associated with the Rapture. The trumpet is blown especially at the new moon, (Psalms 81:3). March 29, 2025 was a new moon. June 25, 2025 6:33 AM EDT will be a new moon, just a couple of days from June 23, 2025.
Looking Up!
As the Lord leads, if anyone sees even more reasons to watch 6/23/2025 please add to this list.
Shalom,
Ted Porter
