I am loving seeing everyone's faces as well :bye: I haven't read the whole article yet - I skipped to the replies to get the bottom line (I know that's cheating :mdrmdr: ) So it looks like he he shooting for 2023 rapture and I agree with you all - no way we can last that long! Another reason that makes this year look really good for rapture is that this is a Schmita year :flyup: I believe he is advocating a 2026 Rapture. His reasoning is that if Jesus died, was buried and rose from the dead in 33 AD then He will likely come in His second Coming on the 2,000th anniversary. Therefore, since the Rapture would be at the start of the Tribulation, he arrives at 2026. (2033 - 7) If we are still here in 2026 then just remember that our Lord is plenty big enough to sustain us. Also keep in mind that He wants us to let go of this world and rely on Him. As things get more unruly we will have no choice but to cling to Him. He is still exponentially bigger than any problems we might face. Agreed Johanan, but I'll be going postal on Satan! TR I've posted this article before, but here it is again. It's very lengthy, you don't have to read it. I just want to post some excerpts from it. PRE-TRIBULATION EVENTS – A.D. 2020-2026 Rapture – The date is unknown, but in this example, it will come before the Gog/Magog war and possibly in conjunction with the Isaiah 17 war, which occurs in the latter part of 2022. 2022 - Isaiah 17 War between Syria and Israel. Damascus will be obliterated by some sort of weapon of mass destruction (possibly nuclear) and will forever cease to be a city. Thus, the oldest inhabited city of the world will be no more. I believe this will occur in the “dog days of summer,” replicating the Six-Day War between Israel and her enemies, Egypt and Syria, that occurred in 1967. For more information go here. It took the Israelites only six days to defeat their old foes…June 5 -10. I believe the Isaiah 17 War could occur on this anniversary date: June 5-10, 2022. The Rapture could happen any time between now and this date, approximately 20 months. Arrival of an “eleventh” king, the Antichrist, onto the world scene in 2025. He is probably a great general from some European country and is expanding his territory into three of the king’s lands. They will have battles and wars for several years into the fall of 2026. He shall be different from the first 10 kings, and shall eventually subdue three of them, per Daniel 7:24
