Derrick,

When the trumpet sounds, we will probably be on the potty or in the shower.  One of my concerns….

I think we will be changed so quickly that it won't be an embarrassment to us. The Lord sees everything we do anyway. Maybe those left behind will see our clothes in a puddle around the bathroom stool and it will be evidence to them that we were snatched and didn't plan to leave at that moment. It will be obvious that we didn't take off for some trip that we failed to tell them about.

Well it is well past midnight in Jerusalem as I write this and so far it looks like our hops for a rapture on a June 5 Pentecost are fizzling out with a whimper today.

However, again, I stress, if a regular sabbath was required to be observed in between Passover and the start of the 50 day count on Firstfruits as some interpret Leviticus 23 to instruct, that would mean that Pentecost would not occur until next Sunday June 12 so we have not her shot at it then.

Also, the Essenes had a whole other computation from the Dead Sea scrolls that would place Pentecost on the 15th day of the 3rd Hebrew month which I think this year fall on June 14th so there are many different possibilities still in play. And again I keep eyeballing that June 20th drop dead date of an 80 year fig tree generation thinking something may occur before then so hang in there everybody!

Ok, so some are saying that the new moon was really not spotted until April 3 and that would bump Pentecost to the 12th.  If you google Orthodox Pentecost you will find that they say the 12th also.

I’m also am still hopeful for the fig tree generation to be fulfilled just before Summer solstice!
