I almost don't want to ask this because it may be discouraging.  And I almost don't want any responses trying to be encouraging to me, so let me also pre-absolve you of any wrongdoing toward me, no matter what you might offer in response.

But this post is just kind of a "...maybe you should face it Dan.  You know nothing other than things usually profferred here, and what you currently assume may well be way off base.  The last few years prove that.  And you've pinned so much peace of mind on your next pet set of high-watch dates."

It's not that I haven't been busy for the Lord.  I think I have been.  But I have proven I know quite well how to fool myself.  Oy vey!

Okay Lord.  You know.  And it's not for me to.  Maranatha Jesus, we love you, and good night again. :heart: :yes:   And thanks for today.

No hate. I appreciate the brutal honesty. Smile
None of us really know since none of us really know the mind of God. His thoughts are not our thoughts.

IMHO, we have a maximum of 4 years left. I don’t think the Second Coming will be any later than 2032. So the Rapture would be in 2025, at the latest, IMHO.

Will it be in 2021? Could be.

All I know is that tomorrow we will be one day closer to being with our Blessed Saviour, Jesus Christ, forever and ever.

Live like He’s coming today but plan like He’s coming back 50 years from now.

Sad to say, we really don't know!

We have the Blessed Hope!  Indeed we are closer now than ever before in history.

Because we've been there and done that, the thought of waiting but one more day is more than repulsive!

Again, waiting for the Lord to tell me when to jump all in and totally reject life here on this Earth!

Trying times for the soul ahead!  Hopefully wisdom will guide our hearts!

Whaaaat? :calvin

Perhaps 4 more years?  Then wouldn’t it make this verse to be untrue? :scratch:

Psalm 90:10
Seventy years are given to us! Some even live to eighty. But even the best years are filled with pain and trouble; soon they disappear, and we fly away.

Based on this verse ... the prophetic clock started up again on Israel’s rebirth as a nation May 14, 1948 + 80 yrs = May 14, 2028 - 7 yr trib = May 14, 2021 looks like the days remaining or it could be less before the rapture. :good:

——————

Per Sean Osborne @ Eschatology Today

Iran is threatening Israel over Syria again. Big mistake.
Iran on Sunday vowed to defeat any Israeli attempt to harm its role in #Syria, saying the era of "hit and run" attacks by Israel there was over, days after Israel carried out air strikes on Syrian army and Iranian paramilitary targets in the country. (Arutz Sheva)

 

And the players for G/M are in place at the ready ...

Thomas Maples posted
FYI, when you read "Ethiopia" in the prophecies, it refers to the land directly to the south of Egypt. That would today be Sudan. What is called Ethiopia today is actually the land to the south of Sudan.

 

And another on RITA facebook said  “Russia is in S. Sudan. Turkey is in Egypt.”

 

- Fair Use -

Meanwhile ... Trump is at Camp David today ... Hmm ... I wonder what they are discussing? :scratch:

Plus aren’t we looking for the many to join the peace accords too? :unsure:

So stay encouraged and keep looking up!!!! :whistle:

There is nothing wrong with acknowledging something is unknown to us, in spite of our hopes and speculations.

Things are about to change dramatically, in the next few weeks. God's timing will not be affected by these events, although our understanding of what is going on may be (emphasis upon "may").

Nope, I still hold to an imminent return .... we have been in the end times since the resurrection of Christ .... the age of grace (church age, time of the Gentiles, etc...) is coming to a close and God will deal with Israel during the tribulation.  Many dates come and go ... it appears to be the need of humanity to determine when God should act, very similar to what Saul did in offering the sacrifice before Samuel arrived. By faith, our God is in charge, never has he been out of step for his perfect plan — humanity and many well meaning believers and watchers try to state a date that God will act, take his Bride home ... God acts everyday in the best interest of his children, his bride .. we are to trust, wait, watch, work, pray, and worship.... I too have seen many decades of watch dates come and go! I look forward to each one and every day .... He is coming for His bride, it is stronger in our Spirits (stop and “feel” that still small voice) today than ever before, we are out the door any moment. Only one other time has so much of prophecy been fulfilled at one time in human history—-the birth and death of our Savior ... now we are about to go (we go, he doesn’t come) to our heavenly home and live in the presence of our blessed hope and the eternal God our father. Get ready to fly, every day .... :prayer-hands: :flyup:

I remain convinced that we will collectively be made aware that the day is approaching. By 'we' I mean 'watchers'. We will reach a point where many will get dicouraged and say "Where is the promise of His coming?" I suppose some will also say that they've been watching for so long, and nothing happens. It's just one watch day after another! It doesn't help when there are soooo many voicing their opinions, sharing dreams of the soon coming rapture, calculating dates, and looking at the planets, and on and on.... Has any one noticed the never ceasing voices that bombard us every day? I am at a point where I cannot read another inspirational quote, and I certainly don't want to see more of them on tshirts, pillows, mugs, wall art and facebook! I think our enemy knows how to deflect our attention from the Word.... drown us in worldly words! In all the turmoil, I like to keep things simple: 6000 years were given, we are there, He is coming back just about now. We won't be taken by surprise, we will see the day approaching if we watch. Let's keep our watch!
