How long, oh Lord, how much longer??? May, 2026, HAS to be the time of the Rapture/Sudden Nuclear Destruction, doesn't it???
May of 2026 will be the main topic of today's post, but first I must explain why I have not written anything for the past few weeks. My wife and I had to be back in the U.S., by March 28th of this year. As a legal immigrant, she was not allowed to be gone from the U.S. longer than one year. Supposedly, Donald Trump changed that to six months, although the immigration website still said one year. We prayed diligently to receive a sympathetic and cooperative immigration agent, and the Lord came through for us.
Since arriving in Michigan on March 25th, I have been extremely busy. Upon returning home, I made a quick list of over 80 important things that I had to do and I am still working on the first half of the list. On top of that, we have had multiple problems to work through, way too numerous to even mention. It seems as if Satan does not want me to continue writing any more posts.
The other reason that I have not written anything lately is that I remain convinced that our Lord will not let anything like the magnitude of the Rapture and simultaneous Sudden Nuclear Destruction upon the United States happen without giving a 7-Day Warning. That Warning is coming and I believe that May, 2026, will be the long-awaited month.
The vast number of Warnings and the frequency and severity of these multiple Warnings has become VERY obvious to Prophecy Watchers everywhere. The greatest and most obvious of these Warnings is the ominous and immediate threat of Nuclear World War 3. I have written much about other multiple Biblical Warnings over the past 15 months that are currently taking place, so I feel no reason to repeat them in this post.
If you had asked me a year ago, or even a few months ago, if May of 2026 would be the most likely month for the Rapture/SND, I would definitely have said, "No". September or October of 2025 was God's Time of Destiny, but delays (Revelation 10:6) and watches (throughout the New Testament) have set the expected time back to early 2026.
I remain convinced that Bonnie Gaunt's, my Prophecy partner of 1999, time for the Millennium to begin is April of 2033. I remain convinced of her much-studied 2000-year and 6000-year timelines pointing directly to April of 2033. There are many possibilities and factors as to why we are still here in early May of 2026. Let me list a few for you:
1. Delays2. Watches3. Calendar discrepancies, of which there are many. What calendar is God using?4. 365-day years as opposed to Biblical 360-day years.5. Is the Rapture in the Spring or in the Fall?6. How and when will the Fall Feast Days be fulfilled?7. Is there 7 years of Tribulation, or 3 and one-half years of Tribulation?8. What does the Bible mean when it says, "Unless those days are shortened, no flesh shall be saved"?9. Does that verse mean that there could be less than 2520 days in the Tribulation?10. Maybe all of the many signs pointing directly to 3/3 of this year were not signs from God. I do not believe this to be true, but after May of 2026, it becomes more difficult to believe that there is still a connection between the multiple signs of 3/3/26 and the Rapture/SND.
By the process of elimination (of March and April of 2026), we MUST look to May for the very likely time for the Rapture/SND. Because of the ten possibilities and factors listed above, among other possible factors, THERE IS STILL ROOM FOR MAY TO BE THE MONTH WE HAVE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR SO VERY LONG.
So, please hang in there, fellow Watchers and born-again believers. I have read many, many timelines, written by fellow Watchers that point directly to May of 2026. I have seen presentations for the first week of May, May 9--12, May 14, May 17--18, and May 25, which is the Feast of Pentecost. I do not know which of these dates, if any, will prove to be correct, but I do believe that the 7-Day Warning will let us know.
I believe that we can now eliminate the first week of May, as I am writing this on May 2nd and I have seen no 7-Day Warning. May 14th is Israel's 78th birthday and many Watchers believe that Jesus will return in the Rapture before their 78th birthday. After all, Israel is God's Prophetic calendar.
I am looking for our 7-Day Warning any day now, but I am focused mostly on May 17--18th, or Feast of Pentecost on May 25th, to probably be the time of the Rapture/SND. J.R. Church, the most knowledgeable end-times Bible Prophecy scholar of our generation, in my opinion, could never decide whether the Rapture would be on Pentecost, in the Spring, or Feast of Trumpets in the Fall. Of course, he never taught two Raptures either. Maybe one of the two future Raptures (read Revelation 7) will be on Feast of Pentecost and the other on Feast of Trumpets.
However, my first choice is May 17--18th. In all of my 50+ years of being a Biblical Watchman, the combination of the numbers SEVEN and ELEVEN has always been extremely important to me. Here is what Genesis SEVEN ELEVEN says, "In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, on that day, all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened." The next verse says, "And the rain was on the earth forty days and forty nights." The Word also tells us that, "As in the days of Noah, so shall it also be in the days of the Coming of the Son of Man (Jesus)." Noah was also given a 7-Day Warning before the Great Flood came, which is another reason why we should be anticipating a 7-Day Warning before the Rapture/SND.
I have always believed that the 17th Day of the 2nd Month would be in the Fall of whatever year. I now believe it is in the Spring, and that May of 2026 is the probable month and year. Depending on which calendar God is using, I believe that the 17th day of the 2nd month will be May 17--18 of 2026. It was Judgment Day in the Great Flood of Noah's day. Will this be our Judgment Day also???
Jim Bramlett always projected the 17th day of the 2nd month (although it was projected to be in the Fall). Jim was one of the original 5 Doves. He and I became very close over the years (Jim beat us to Heaven a few years ago). We had probably 100 to 200 phone calls together. In the year of 2015, I had a group of 7 close Watchers, and Jim was one of them. In the early 1990's, Jim and I both attended the largest and most prestigious end-times Bible Prophecy Conference in the world, at God's News Behind the News in Florida. We had several meals together and got to know each other a lot better. I believe there is a good chance that the Lord brought us together to show me that Jim's projected day, the 17th day of the 2nd month (although in the Spring, rather than the Fall) may indeed be the time of the world's Great Judgment, as in the days of Noah.
I am very anxious to see what John Tng, the long-time dedicated moderator of Five Doves, has to say about May 17-18, 2026, being the time that we have all been waiting for for so long. John is very confident that this will be the time. Check Five Doves this week, as his post about May 17-18 will probably appear at the very bottom of the page. Is he also pointing to the 17th day of the 2nd month, as in the days of Noah? I am very anxious to see.
As long as the end-times wars of Russia and Ukraine and Europe, and especially the war with Iran, Israel, and the United States, are taking place, as Watchers we must fully expect the Sudden Nuclear Destruction and, therefore, the Rapture, to take place VERY, VERY SOON! I am expecting one more Red Letter Warning to you, as soon as the 7-Day Warning takes place. The Warning will most likely revolve around nuclear World War 3.
Be ready! Stay ready! Please WARN others also.
Even so, come Lord Jesus!
Maranatha!
