Joel 2:15 Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly: 16 Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck the breasts: let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet. I believe the bridegroom is Jesus, while the bride is the church. These two verses represent the rapture. Concerning "Blow the trumpet in Zion" and it's timing, I found Psalm 81:3 which is very interesting. Psalm 81:3 Blow up the trumpet in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our solemn feast day. “Blow the trumpet in the new moon” . Does it mean that rapture shall take place in a new moon, that is, on the first day of a new month? Right now my focus is still on the number 153, with the real Shavuot falls on Tammuz 26. Here’s my speculation. Take 2020 to 2027 timeline for example. Tammuz 26 2027 is the conclusion/summation of all the tribulation events. 1335 days shall end on Tammuz 26 2027. And if there are extra 30 and 45 days given in tribulation, then subtracting 2595 days from Tammuz 26 2027, we come to June 22 2020 as the beginning of tribulation and the rapture. June 22 / Sivan 30 2020 is also the first day of a new month. Will God sound the trumpet on that day, and calls the church home? We shall see. Here's what the timeline shall look like. June 22 Sivan 30 2020 New Moon Rapture ------- 2520 days ---- May 17 Iyyar 10 2027 Jesus returns to earth, Second Advent ------ 30 days + 45 days ------Tammuz 26 July 31 2027, end of 1335 days, Blessed is he who comes to this day On Tammuz 26 2027 Shavuot, which is the end of 1335 days, there shall be an offering to God the Father, with Jesus being the High Priest, the remnant of Israel and the tribulation saints represent the two loaves of bread. Leviticus 23:16 Even unto the morrow after the seventh sabbath shall ye number fifty days; and ye shall offer a new meat offering unto the LORD. 17 Ye shall bring out of your habitations two wave loaves of two tenth deals: they shall be of fine flour; they shall be baken with leaven; they are the firstfruits unto the LORD. God has commanded Israelis to make an offering to Him, on the fifty days after Sivan 6, which is Tammuz 26. Instead of offering the two loaves of bread to God the Father on Tammuz 26, Jesus shall offer the remnant of Israel and the tribulation believers to his Father in heaven. We also find this offering in Isaiah 66 verse 20 when Jesus returns. This event shall wrap up the 7 years tribulation and brings a conclusion to all the horrific events. Also, when Jesus returns on May 17 2027, between that day and Shavuot Tammuz 26 July 31 2027, Jesus shall crush the ten toes, and they shall become the chaff of the summer threshingfloors, not chaff of winter threshingfloors, nor chaff of autumn threhingfloors. Daniel 2:35 Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth. Oh man, I don't want to wait. :negative: To calculate the beginning of 1260 days which is the middle of tribulation, we subtract 1260 days from May 17 2027. We have December 4 2023 as the beginning of 1260 days. December 4 Kislev 21 2023 -------- 1260 days -------- May 17 Iyyar 10 2027 Second Advent December 4 also falls on Kislev 21 in Jewish calendar. It is 3 days before Hanukkah. On an ancient Kislev 24, through the prophet Haggai, God vowed on that day He would overthrow the throne of kingdoms, their chariots, and those ride in them. Haggai 2:20 And again the word of the LORD came unto Haggai in the four and twentieth day of the month, saying, 21 Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying, I will shake the heavens and the earth; 22And I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms, and I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the heathen; and I will overthrow the chariots, and those that ride in them; and the horses and their riders shall come down, every one by the sword of his brother. My guess is this, God foresees AC shall break the covenant on a future Hanukkah Kislev 24. So, on an ancient Kislev 24, in 520 BC, God has made a vow that He shall punish these kingdoms, for trespassing his Land and His people, by overthrowing their thrones, and their chariots, and those who ride in them. God shall accomplish His vow by the subsequent wars in the second half of tribulation, including world war three, and finally by the second Advent of His Son Jesus. Moreover, when AC breaks the covenant on and around Hanukkah which is December 7 2023, he shall also raise armies to encompass Jerusalem ( Luke 21:20). This gathering of armies may take weeks to late January or early February 2024 . From Jeremiah 1 the almond tree which always blossom in late January and early February, God has foretold there would be a northern army coming against Jerusalem around that time. By January and February 2024, Jerusalem shall be in deep trouble, surrounded by army. Matthew 24:20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: When we take my timeline as illustration, we shall understand Jesus' warning better. The breaking of covenant shall take place on and around December 7 Hanukkah 2023. It's winter time in Jerusalem. When Jesus forewarns the Jews "Pray that your flight and escape be not in winter", it is because the breaking of covenant and the abomination will take place in winter. Jesus warns them to escape and take flight before winter, that is, don't wait til winter arrives before they take flight and escape. They should take flight and escape before winter arrives. Matthew 24:15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) 16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: 17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house: 18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes. 19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! 20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: Here's my take. The abomination is Anti Christ. The Holy Place is the third temple. He is invited to take part of the dedication of third temple which shall be held on the first day of Hanukkah 2023 December 7. The Jews who heed Jesus' warning shall know that their end is near, and begins to take flight and escape before December and the winter. While AC is at Jerusalem, on the 4th of December which is Kislev 21, he is assassinated with bullet wound on his right eye and his two arms. But three days later, on the 7th, he miraculously comes back to live, mimicking Jesus' resurrection. On the 7th which is Hanukkah Kislev 24, he breaks the covenant with the Jews. Nations shall be uproar and anger at the Jews because of the assassination attempt. They shall encompass Jerusalem with huge army. This gathering of army shall be complete by February 2024. God has foretold the timing of this northern army against Jerusalem through the prophet Jeremiah by showing an almond tree to Jeremiah. Almond tree always blossoms in late January or February. This northern army shall begin their siege and attack on Jerusalem when the almond tree blossoms in February. From December 2023 to February 2024, this is the winter Jesus has forewarned, in which the Jews should " pray ye that your flight and escape shall not be in winter", that is, they should take flight and escape before the winter arrives. Matthew 24:20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: I believe I have just unlocked another mystery. When Jesus forewarns the Jews to pray that their flight shall not be in winter, it is because the breaking of covenant and the abomination will take place in winter. For those who take flight and escape in winter, it will be too late for them to escape. I got this when I was constructing my timeline from my previous posts. Last time I had this strong sense is when I encountered the age of Anti Christ in Isaiah 23:15, and afterward the "Beauty" in Zechariah 11 verse 10 in which the word "Church" surfaced in my mind. From my previous 2300 days thread, I have stated that 2300 days speaks of the fate of daily sacrifice once it is re-instituted and restored by Israelis after they witness Gog/Magog. This daily sacrifice shall be interrupted by AC during mid-trib, when it faces the transgression of desolation. to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot. And from the first day this daily sacrifice is re-instituted, til holy is restored by Jesus at his second coming, there shall be 2300 days. To calculate the first day of 2300 days, I subtract 2300 days from May 17 2027 Jesus returns to earth. I got January 28 2021 which falls on 15th of Sh'vat also known as Tu Bishvat. Jan 28 / Sh'vat 15 2021 Restoration of daily sacrifice ------ 2300 days ------- May 17 2027 Second Advent My speculation is confirmation of covenant shall also happen on the same day. In 2017, 2018 and 2019, on the 15th of Sh'vat, there were three consecutive lunar eclipses in Israel. May be this is the warning sign to Israel from Yahweh, for not to confirm the death covenant on a future 15th of Sh'vat? Oh, I just found out 2020 June 21 there shall be a solar eclipse. If new moon rapture does occur on that day, it will be very interesting to see the solar system, and stars alignment on that day. I have attached the solar eclipse map on June 21 2020 viewed from Jerusalem. It's very interesting, 1/3 of the sun shall be covered by the moon at the maximum. It reminds me of 2/3 shall perish, while 1/3 shall be purged and refined by God in Zechariah 13:7-8. It's good to be looking forward in longing anticipation for His Coming! He's been teaching me to quit having anxiety about things not going the way I want them to & out of my control or even ability to comprehend, and to instead let Him be God and just trust His ways & His timing...much easier said than done, but we aren't to rely on ourselves- I've got to ask Him to help me trust and not fret and be angry at unfulfilled expectations I have...anyway, it's exciting to passionately expect His return and the Rapture of the Church and it is pleasing to Him to look forward to all of it! He WILL do it! We just have to keep our hope set on HIM and we will not be disappointed! Even if we have to rely on Him moment by moment for days and weeks and years...even if we have to grow old and die, or even martyred before being ushered into His Glory...then, our faith will be made sight, and it will be better than anything we could ever imagine...we've gotta keep our eyes on Him- pray for His soon Return and to snatch us out of this evil world, but keep our faith in HIM not just in what we want Him to do & when we want Him to do it- we know He will do it, but we don't know when...it sure looks like He's allowing it all & causing things to line up for a very very soon Rapture & Tribulation! He may "put the brakes on things" though...No matter what, He WILL sustain us in the waiting and bear fruit through us as we allow Him to...MARANTHA!
