Summary of Bible references on the Rapture

[ZNP]

Step by Step the Lord sets the stage for the Day of the Lord

Isaiah 23:1 The burden of Tyre. Howl, ye ships of Tarshish; for it is laid waste, so that there is no house, no entering in: from the land of Chittim it is revealed to them.

Tarshish refers to the British Isles and there is a perfect correlation between this portion here and what happened to England in WW2.

2 Be still, ye inhabitants of the isle; thou whom the merchants of Zidon, that pass over the sea, have replenished. 3 And by great waters the seed of Sihor, the harvest of the river, is her revenue; and she is a mart of nations.

This was true of the British Empire right up until WW2.

4 Be thou ashamed, O Zidon: for the sea hath spoken, even the strength of the sea, saying, I travail not, nor bring forth children, neither do I nourish up young men, nor bring up virgins. 5 As at the report concerning Egypt, so shall they be sorely pained at the report of Tyre.

What happened to Egypt? Oh yeah, they were a great empire that is now considered a desert of sand.

6 Pass ye over to Tarshish; howl, ye inhabitants of the isle. 7 Is this your joyous city, whose antiquity is of ancient days? her own feet shall carry her afar off to sojourn.

Sure reminds me of the bombing of London.

8 Who hath taken this counsel against Tyre, the crowning city, whose merchants are princes, whose traffickers are the honourable of the earth?

That is how the British attempted to portray themselves. They were "gentleman". There was an "honorable" way to usurp the wealth of the other countries.

9 The Lord of hosts hath purposed it, to stain the pride of all glory, and to bring into contempt all the honourable of the earth.

Yes, they portrayed themselves as better and smarter than the rest of the world, and now Britain has been brought into contempt. They are a shell of their former glory and our depiction of the Royal family is mockery and ridicule just as our depiction of the British. It seems they are either portrayed as the clowns who are the royal family or as some white trash with a thick accent.

10 Pass through thy land as a river, O daughter of Tarshish: there is no more strength.

There is no more strength to the British Empire, that is over.

11 He stretched out his hand over the sea, he shook the kingdoms: the Lord hath given a commandment against the merchant city, to destroy the strong holds thereof.

So then, the "merchant city" would refer to London. However, what happened to London should be a warning to NYC.

her merchandise shall be for them that dwell before the Lord

Isaiah 23:12 And he said, Thou shalt no more rejoice, O thou oppressed virgin, daughter of Zidon: arise, pass over to Chittim; there also shalt thou have no rest. 13 Behold the land of the Chaldeans; this people was not, till the Assyrian founded it for them that dwell in the wilderness: they set up the towers thereof, they raised up the palaces thereof; and he brought it to ruin.

The fall of Britain in WW2 was also the rise of the US. Chaldeans refer to great warriors and the US really shone as the greatest with Patton, MacArthur and Eisenhower. Germany does not get to rejoice at the destruction of Britain.

14 Howl, ye ships of Tarshish: for your strength is laid waste.

Britain's strength was her navy but that was laid waste and the US became the global superpower.

15 And it shall come to pass in that day, that Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king: after the end of seventy years shall Tyre sing as an harlot.

In 1948 Britains control over Israel was forgotten. In 2018 it was 70 years later. How does a harlot sing? I think our modern day translation might be to "sing like a canary". Prince Andrew was on the Epstein flight logs, as well as many other people. Imagine if they have been singing to the authorities since 2018 to avoid prison and humiliation.

16 Take an harp, go about the city, thou harlot that hast been forgotten; make sweet melody, sing many songs, that thou mayest be remembered. 17 And it shall come to pass after the end of seventy years, that the Lord will visit Tyre, and she shall turn to her hire, and shall commit fornication with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth. 18 And her merchandise and her hire shall be holiness to the Lord: it shall not be treasured nor laid up; for her merchandise shall be for them that dwell before the Lord, to eat sufficiently, and for durable clothing.

Wow! King Charles and the Royal family is the wealthiest family on Earth. Technically they own one fourth of the Earth's land. Imagine if all that wealth were given to the Lord. This could be like the scandal that rocked the Catholic church and bankrupted them with lawsuits.

It's a Chemical & Not a Bio Weapon...Is it? Dream 7-13-25 Shared 7-15-25

 

[ZNP]

You have been warned

Isaiah 24:1 Behold, the Lord maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof.

I view WW1 and WW2 like a musical piece where the themes in these events get replayed and build to a climax during the day of the Lord. The last generation is introduced with these two wars and then presented with the Lord after the Day of the Lord, which is the climax and WW3. What happened to Britain is a warning about what will happen to the US. Likewise what happened with Hiroshima and Nagasaki is a warning as well. Only when a nuclear weapon is dropped does the earth truly become empty and waste, not only so but the inhabitants who survive are scattered abroad as they don't want be around the radiation.

2 And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him.

Nuclear bomb doesn't care. Everyone is vaporized.

3 The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the Lord hath spoken this word.

Only with a nuclear weapon is the land utterly emptied and utterly spoiled. The Lord has spoken this word indicates the judge proclaiming judgment. Often sentence is proclaimed and then it still might take a week or two before it is carried out. I view the two nuclear bombs dropped on Japan as the Lord speaking the judgement. If that had not happened we would have no idea about what a nuclear bomb can do. After that event the entire world was threatened and words like this in the Bible made much more sense. This should have caused people to repent.

4 The earth mourneth and fadeth away, the world languisheth and fadeth away, the haughty people of the earth do languish.

This is something more. The earth does not fade when hit with a nuclear bomb it instantly turns to ash. No, this is a good description of what happens when you have pollution, smog, rivers turned to toxic dumps. This is what that song was saying when it said "they paved paradise and put up a parking lot".

Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got
Till it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

This is what happened after WW2, the world changed.

5 The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant.

The earth is defiled, that means it is polluted. God's ordinances tell us how to deal with our waste products in a way that it doesn't harm others, but they change the ordinances, they break the everlasting covenant all because they worship the almighty dollar, that is idolatry.

6 Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.

You can't say that there are few men left now unless you are distinguishing "men" who have backbone and stand up for the truth from all the covetous, greedy liars and thieves. However, I suspect this refers to the earth right after the rapture.

7 The new wine mourneth, the vine languisheth, all the merryhearted do sigh. 8 The mirth of tabrets ceaseth, the noise of them that rejoice endeth, the joy of the harp ceaseth.

The new wine mourneth could be a reference to the feast of new wine because there are indications that this feast is the real pentecost and that the church age will both begin and end with the feast of new wine.

9 They shall not drink wine with a song; strong drink shall be bitter to them that drink it. 10 The city of confusion is broken down: every house is shut up, that no man may come in.

This sounds like a massive curfew. Everyone must be terrified of something. Either the only way to maintain order is to shoot people in the streets on sight or else this could refer to the three days of darkness.

11 There is a crying for wine in the streets; all joy is darkened, the mirth of the land is gone. 12 In the city is left desolation, and the gate is smitten with destruction.

We have city of confusion, it is left in desolation and it is smitten with destruction. Confusion indicates darkness, perhaps a communications blackout. This word for desolation is translated as "astonishment" and also means horror. It will be astonishing, horrifying and confusing. Not only so but there will be a lot of destruction as well.

13 When thus it shall be in the midst of the land among the people, there shall be as the shaking of an olive tree, and as the gleaning grapes when the vintage is done.

There you go, God is talking about the harvest at the end of the age. The rapture takes place, for those left behind it will be astonishing. It will also be horrifying because at the same time the saints go up Satan and the fallen angels are cast down to the earth. There will also be a lot of destruction as Satan will know his time is short.

More about the rapture

Isaiah 24:14 They shall lift up their voice, they shall sing for the majesty of the Lord, they shall cry aloud from the sea.

This refers to the rapture and from the sea refers to from the nations. So this is what we commonly refer to as "the rapture of the church".

15 Wherefore glorify ye the Lord in the fires, even the name of the Lord God of Israel in the isles of the sea.

Because of the rapture the whole world will see a great revival.

16 From the uttermost part of the earth have we heard songs, even glory to the righteous. But I said, My leanness, my leanness, woe unto me! the treacherous dealers have dealt treacherously; yea, the treacherous dealers have dealt very treacherously.

We have a contrast here. Some of those who are left behind are evil, they have ruled this earth for thousands of years and they aren't about to give it up without a fight. So they will become very treacherous. On the other hand there will be many people throughout the earth that heard of the Lord's greatness but now they see it with their eyes and so they will turn, repent and worship the Lord.

17 Fear, and the pit, and the snare, are upon thee, O inhabitant of the earth.

What does Satan have left to get your worship than to threaten you with death if you don't. The mark of the beast, either you worship the beast or else you cannot buy or sell.

18 And it shall come to pass, that he who fleeth from the noise of the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that cometh up out of the midst of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for the windows from on high are open, and the foundations of the earth do shake.

If you are left behind this is not the time to flee, it is the time to confess, repent and worship the Lord and preach the gospel.

19 The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is moved exceedingly.

For the earth to be moved exceedingly, for it to be dissolved, this sounds like a massive earthquake like the one that takes place when the sixth seal is opened and the rapture takes place.

20 The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again.

This sounds like our rotation will be messed up. Twice in the Old Testament we see that either the length of the day was exceedingly long or the earth turned backwards on its axis of rotation causing the sundial to go backwards.

21 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall punish the host of the high ones that are on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth.

Again this sounds like the sixth seal where the high ones and kings are all hiding in the caves because the wrath of the lamb has come.

22 And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the prison, and after many days shall they be visited.

This sounds like they live in their bunkers for a couple of months before coming back to the surface.

23 Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the Lord of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients gloriously.

Again, this is what is prophesied when it says a third of the stars are cast to the earth, but what exactly is going to happen? Who knows?

 

[ZNP]

the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.

1 Corinthians 4:1 Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.

Think of the US government, in that analogy Jesus is the President, and we are all in His adminstration. You have the Secretary of defense and Secretary of State and Chief of Staff. Those are all "ministers". A steward is like the "Butler", he is the most important person in a big house that all the other servants listen to. Every one of us is supposed to be a "steward of the mysteries of God". What Paul is saying here is that we should not be here complaining "O, Biden did this, Trump did that". No, we are here ministering Christ to one another and also stewards of the mysteries explaining that no, this was not Biden, it was Jesus who is over all and this is why. We don't speak from our opinion, rather we show from the word of God. The Jesus Christ is the mystery of God and He is the incarnated word of God. When you listen to Christians bickering about politics it is shameful. They are not speaking as ministers of Christ, they are not sharing with us the mysteries of God, rather they are being fleshly, of this earth and not of the heavenly kingdom. Some even go so far as to condemn you if you share the word of God and apply it to the current events.

2 Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.

A butler had access to everything the master owns so he must be found faithful. The worst thing is if you are a servant that no one trusts because you are not faithful.

3 But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man's judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self.

This is another big mistake Christians make. We are to discern the Spirit, and test the word, but instead of doing that they judge one another. People hear what they want to hear and disregard the rest. It is amazing to me how many on these forums have tried to put words into my mouth. They frequently accuse me of saying all kinds of things without ever linking the accusation to a post that I made. The reason they don't link the post is because if they did it would expose them, that they are liars. They heard what they wanted to hear and then determined that was false. The only one they are condemning is themselves and their false interpretation.

4 For I know nothing by myself; yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judgeth me is the Lord.

This is what we need, to be able to hear the Lord. For example when they mandated the vaccine I had no proof that there was anything wrong with the vaccine. However, I was very clear that I did not trust Fauci. In my spirit I got a very bad feeling about him as well as a very bad feeling about DeBlasio and the mandate. I listened to the Lord and decided not to take the vaccine. That meant that both my wife and I would need to resign our jobs, sell the house and move. You need to be able to hear the Lord in your spirit so clearly that you can act when He says to, even if the cost is very high. Most people can't hear the lord because they are talking so much and as a result they can not act decisively but get tossed around by the wind and the waves.

5 Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.

There is a difference between discerning the spirit and judging a person. If you look throughout this blog you will discover I have posted many, many links to others. I am not concerned if I agree with them, that is not the criteria. They must be speaking on the word of God, it must be relevant to the rapture and at the time of the posting it had to have been somewhat unique. Either it provides a different perspective, a new perspective, or it is confirming a very controversial interpretation. However, there have been several people who I used to post regularly, but then something was said or done that triggered a red flag and so I stopped posting their material. I am not judging them, that is for the Lord. But because of the red flag I am also not promoting their ministry. Several times I have explained why I stopped sharing their ministry. We do not know the whole story, hence we are not in a position to judge. We are however, in a position to discern the spirit, to be warned and to avoid things that we have been warned about.

For example, if you say that brother A is a false prophet then the one thing you have guaranteed is that we have now discovered a false prophet because either brother A is a false prophet, as you say, or else you are. It is stunning to me how few realize that saying a brother is a false prophet is in fact a prophecy (speaking a word on behalf of the Lord) and that you will be judged with the very same judgement that you judge others with.

I have seen many youtube videos with great titles, very compelling. I will listen for five minutes, ten at the most, before making a decision as to whether to continue listening or not. As a result I don't know enough about ministries I decided to avoid to determine if they are false or not. For me you should spend a few hours, maybe even a few days before making such a determination and I don't have the time or the inclination to do that. A real false prophet, a Balaam or a Judas, will take months or years to discern.

Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me.

1 Corinthians 4:6 And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us not to think of men above that which is written, that no one of you be puffed up for one against another.

Paul is not walking around with business cards saying "Minister of Christ and Steward of the mysteries of God", he is simply using this to illustrate what we all should be. The reason that people get duped by false prophets is because their faith is based on men and not based on a revelation of Jesus Christ. If I go to a church and it is packed out with several thousand people, they have a great sound system, very professional worship team, and a polished speaker, I don't care about any of that. I listen to the message and the question I have is do I get any light from his speaking, does the Lord speak to me through the message. If not I will gladly walk away. But that is not how many think, they assume that since this place has thousands of people, and the music is good, and the speaker is "good" that this is a great place to worship.

7 For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it?

Everything we have we received from the Lord. Just because the Lord does not speak to me in this one congregation is not a judgment on them. It simply means the Lord does not want me there, He wants me somewhere else. But not all Christians think this way, they are looking to receive something from this man, and this book, and this person. It should to be that many pastors read"Readers Digest" because they would get stories and jokes they could use in their sermon. Soon, the sermons were not taken from the Bible, they were homilies. It is good to apply the word of God to the lives of the listeners, but when you begin with "Reader's Digest" your "homilies" become fables. There is a lot of pressure on Pastors to come up with a sermon every week. For most of us to speak for five minutes would be terrifying, much less for forty five minutes. But what we need to do is to trust the Lord Jesus to supply the message. I like to think of Jesus as Michael Jordan and I am the coach. He is sitting on my bench, all I need to do is to put Him into the game.

8 Now ye are full, now ye are rich, ye have reigned as kings without us: and I would to God ye did reign, that we also might reign with you.

He is saying in a diplomatic way, that they are puffed up and arrogant.

9 For I think that God hath set forth us the apostles last, as it were appointed to death: for we are made a spectacle unto the world, and to angels, and to men.

This is what I am looking for in a church. I don't want to see a whole bunch of rich Christians who think they are reigning, I want to see the man in the ring, it seems he is about to be killed, but he stands his ground for the Lord.

10 We are fools for Christ's sake, but ye are wise in Christ; we are weak, but ye are strong; ye are honourable, but we are despised.

Look at the contrast, in any city you can see these two. You can see the church that is "wise", "strong" and "honourable". These are the churches that went along with the vaccine mandate because they were "wise". They claim to be strong not because they have defeated giants but because they are a giant. They are the biggest, richest church in the city. They view themselves as honourable, not because of Jesus Christ who is in their midst but because of the lawyers, doctors and judges who are in the congregation. Meanwhile there are other churches that are weak and despised. This is because they are going up against giants and by comparison who are they, surely they will lose.

11 Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwellingplace;

Is this a description of the church you attend? If you are in the US most likely no. But if you are in China, Saudi Arabia, or many other places the chances are very good this does apply to you. in some countries there is a very big cost to take a stand for the Lord.

12 And labour, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it:

Does this describe the pastor? I have been to churches where it does and I have been to churches where it doesn't.

13 Being defamed, we intreat: we are made as the filth of the world, and are the offscouring of all things unto this day.

Being defamed is not proof that the person is speaking for the Lord, it could be proof of a scandalous life. But if a man is standing for the Lord in the midst of this evil and adulterous age and they aren't defamed, that is a major red flag. I remember this one brother, he simply preached the gospel wherever he went. It seems every time I was ever with him we preached the gospel and yet you cannot imagine the uproar as people wanted to prohibit him coming on campus. The rule was any student could bring a guest on campus and there were three or four of us who wanted him to visit us for lunch. I was a new brother and I remember wondering "why are they so vehement against this brother, he doesn't harm anyone, all he does is preach the gospel". That reaction from the evil and adulterous age was like God's good housekeeping seal of approval on this brother.

14 I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn you.

I realize it is hard to find a church that will care for you and help you grow in grace, so I hope these verses help you discern the best place for you.

15 For though ye have ten thousand instructers in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.

I probably have had less than 100 teachers if I count elementary school, JHS, HS, college and graduate school. I doubt people in Paul's time had more schooling that we have now and at the same time the Bible does not exaggerate. Therefore I understand this word "instructors" as people who give you advice. There truly have been thousands of people who have given me advice. They don't know me, yet they feel they can advise me not to talk about prophecy, don't talk about the end times, don't meet with that church, don't spend time with that brother, it is OK to go to church on Sunday, but not every day, you shouldn't spend so much time reading the Bible, etc. etc., etc. A father has known you from the day you were born, learn to tune out all the "good advice" and listen to your father.

16 Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me.

If you follow the advice of the ten thousand voices out there you will be like a boat tossed by the wind and waves. If you listen to your father you will be like a boat cutting through the waves and taking advantage of the wind.

For this cause have I sent unto you Timotheus

1 Corinthians 4:17 For this cause have I sent unto you Timotheus, who is my beloved son, and faithful in the Lord, who shall bring you into remembrance of my ways which be in Christ, as I teach every where in every church.

If there are false prophets then there are also genuine brothers, beloved sons of God who are faithful in the Lord. If you are praying to not be deceived by the false prophets also pray that God would send you a Timothy.

18 Now some are puffed up, as though I would not come to you.

This is the attitude of some towards the rapture.

19 But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will know, not the speech of them which are puffed up, but the power.

The puffed up ones are great at mocking, scoffing and ridiculing believers. But when they are left behind then we will see how much power their words have. But you don't have to wait. Pray that the Lord would reveal the power of a brother or sister that you are troubled by. Is this one a false prophet or are they a Timothy? Either way your spirit will be going off within you like a siren. So ask the Lord to reveal the power in their words to you.

20 For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.

A word of life is powerful, a word of healing is powerful, a word of light is powerful, a word like a two edged sword dividing the soul from the spirit is powerful.

21 What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and in the spirit of meekness?

With what measure you measure it will be measured to you again. Are you walking around with a rod or a spirit of meekness? Do you walk around in love or in judgment?

What does the newest Atlantic Hurricane Season forecast show?

I post this because at the same time she is sharing about this massive storm for Florida the experts are saying there is nothing forecast.

Tropical system to move over Florida, bringing threat of flooding, wind and tornadoes

And here we are on Wednesday morning. This was actually shared on Youtube at 12:30 am on July 16th.

Florida is getting hit hard with the rain. But notice he says "a small chance for flooding". Don't let anyone tell you a week from now they were warning you about this.

God, that is who.

Isaiah 25:1 O Lord, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things; thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth.

Isaiah 26 is a very major chapter concerning the rapture of the church, therefore I would like to apply chapter 25 to the church age.

2 For thou hast made of a city an heap; of a defenced city a ruin: a palace of strangers to be no city; it shall never be built.

The church age began with Jerusalem being made a heap. For thousands of years it was not built up. This isn't coincidental, no one city was so clearly belligerent to the early church. The church age began with Jerusalem being made an heap and we have a prophecy that the church age will end with Damascus becoming a ruinous heap. (This is an interpretation, likening the oldest continuously inhabited city, Damascus, to Methuselah and the days of Noah).

3 Therefore shall the strong people glorify thee, the city of the terrible nations shall fear thee.

When the church stands despite all odds, despite everything we can see and all the persecution and all the attacks, then everyone will praise the Lord. It seemed that the Jews were far mightier than the early church back in 70 AD, but they became a heap while the world saw the Christians grow and continue to grow throughout the entire church age.

4 For thou hast been a strength to the poor, a strength to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shadow from the heat, when the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall.

That is what the normal church is. If this does not describe the congregation that you meet with, if the needy are not welcome, if it is not a refuge from the storm, then you are in the wrong place. Consider the seven year tribulation as the ultimate distress, the ultimate storm. Those who are left behind will be those who never experienced the church as a refuge and so they will need this experience.

5 Thou shalt bring down the noise of strangers, as the heat in a dry place; even the heat with the shadow of a cloud: the branch of the terrible ones shall be brought low.

Who are the terrible ones? When I was a stock broker we were taught that the best way to discern if someone is rich or poor on the phone is by how they act. Rich people are terrible to others, it could be that they are surrounded by flies and parasites, but whatever the reason the ruder the person the more you were to assume they must be rich.

6 And in this mountain shall the Lord of hosts make unto all people a feast of fat things, a feast of wines on the lees, of fat things full of marrow, of wines on the lees well refined.

All people is in contrast to the terrible ones. We have the richest 1%, they are terrible, they are spoiled brats, and then we have "all people", that is essentially everyone else in the country. I would liken "this mountain" the Lord's word, He cursed the fig tree and it withered up and then He told the disciples they would curse this mountain and cast it into the sea. It is a picture of one world government, the Antichrist kingdom.

7 And he will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering cast over all people, and the vail that is spread over all nations.

They oppress everyone. The way the richest 1% stay the richest 1% is by making the other 99% support them and their wanton lifestyle. It could be taxes, it could be an oppressive government, it could be by war.

8 He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord God will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the Lord hath spoken it.

This is a great promise, hold this promise close when you are going through what appears to be death, when you are sorrowing. Consider this promise to take away the rebuke of his people. When I was in high school I was playing Monopoly with three of my friends. I had gotten a book on the strategy of the game and I was following what it said to a tee and the game was playing out exactly as they said it would. Anyway, my friends were all laughing and mocking me because to them it seemed I was losing. But I was very confident and didn't let that phase me. The father of one of my friends was in the same room listening to all this. The next day he asks his son who won and he said I had. Later he told me that his father had been very impressed by that. This will be what the Lord will do for us who are faithful to trust in the word of God and the Lord Jesus.

9 And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the Lord; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.

God has provided all the evidence that anyone needs to know beyond a shadow of a doubt that He can save us from whatever comes our way. Those who actually dig into the word to examine it will have this faith, those that don't won't.

10 For in this mountain shall the hand of the Lord rest, and Moab shall be trodden down under him, even as straw is trodden down for the dunghill.

This is how we see how great our God is. We can see these enemies coming against us, they always seem bigger, stronger and scarier. But for those who have faith they simply get trodden down like straw into the mud.

11 And he shall spread forth his hands in the midst of them, as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth his hands to swim: and he shall bring down their pride together with the spoils of their hands.

What you trust in is your pride. To one person they trust in their riches or their job or their connections. To a believer you trust in the Lord Jesus. Silver and Gold have I none but what I have I give to thee. Thank you Peter.

12 And the fortress of the high fort of thy walls shall he bring down, lay low, and bring to the ground, even to the dust.

Some people trust in their military. Big mistake, every single empire before the US had the most powerful military prior to their downfall. Think of Egypt, those chariots were probably very effective in wars they were used to, but then God threw them a curveball, they were useless driving along the sea floor. Who could ever prepare for a battle to take place on the sea floor? God, that is who.

 

[ZNP]

The church age started the same way it is going to end. The Lord made jerusalem a heap so that the gospel would go to the four corners of the earth, in the same way the Lord will make the USA a heap so that those left behind will also go to the four corners of the earth. Jerusalem was strong, proud, they thought they were wise, teachers of the foolish. They held the Christians in disrespect. In the same way the US is just as arrogant today. The prophetic warning as a heads up that the Day of the flood is upon us is the destruction of Damascus so that it becomes a ruinous heap. That is not the fulfillment, the destruction of the USA as the Great Babylon is the true end of the church age, but Damascus becoming a ruinous heap should be our fire alarm going off letting us know that we are now to evacuate this earth.

We have had 46,000 new visitors to this blog since the last time I shared this so I am reposting it.

Pdf's you can download.

After the rapture they will shut down the entire internet for a few days and when it comes back up everything will have changed, it will now be under their full control using quantum computers and AI to surveil what is being posted. Now is the time to download this to a Pdf and put it on a flash drive.

Left Behind letter

If you download these Pdfs to a flash drive it will be a powerful left behind letter. After the rapture there will probably be a three week blackout before the internet comes back up with a full censorship and control from the Antichrist. Think of all those people who are completely locked into their phones, TV and internet. If that goes down they will have three weeks and will want to know what is going on. Having this (and it includes a KJV Bible) will allow them to really dig into this for the three weeks. If you make a few copies and put them on flash drives Antichrist and his minions will not be able to track this. We should all have left behind letters and Bibles.

False Prophets

It seems everyone is going to need to know this and to be able to discern false prophets during the tribulation. This Pdf is 32 pages on this subject. I kept it to false prophets and didn't get into discerning liars, I thought that would make it too long. This Pdf is the 15 posts on False prophets in this blog.

If you are new to this blog

These are Pdfs anyone can download of all my posts.

251 Bible verses on that describe when the rapture is

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1DD4uTLBu6cPeOQFYYQYmrocCzAWzRLiI/view?usp=sharing

We always hear that no one knows when the rapture will be. Of course the Lord never
said no one knows the year or the season, just the day and the hour. But suppose that
verse means “no one verse knows”. You see you can get one verse in Hosea that does
point to the year and you can get one verse in Amos that does point to the season and
one verse in Jeremiah that does point to the season. Now imagine each of these 108
Bible verses tell us something, none of them tell us “the day or the hour” but they each
narrow down the possible days and hours. In other words they could be a filter
removing days and hours that don’t fit.

This is a Pdf that discusses how to discern a false prophet, it also discusses several key verses on the timing of the rapture as well as Ken Peters dream, the writing on the Wall sign and a few other relevant points about thanksgiving, and the Pact for the Future.

Writing on the Wall Sign

Here is a summary of what I posted on this blog concerning the Writing on the Wall sign along with what I have shared on Daniel.

I based most of my letter on the Gospel according to Mark and the Book of Acts.

Index of Bible References volumes 1-5

I would have done this for all of them but ran out of time. However, it does help those who are interested in a particular verse to find the verse and what is said about it. One reason I did this was so I could look for verses that had not been referenced.

This is only for those who love the Lord's appearing. It is quite similar to the recent Pdfs I have posted but I have added a few things so that it is now 94 pages.

Who is the Great Babylon

This Pdf goes through every verse in the New Testament and many in the Old referring to Babylon. I see which of the various interpretations fit. The main three are: Israel, Vatican and the US, though I also see if England fits any. I used to subscribe to the teaching of Darby and Watchman Nee on this, however, everyone should know that when they taught the US was not a superpower, Hollywood and Multinational corporations did not exist (true for Darby, Watchman Nee was around at the time of silent movies). The pandemic had not taken place and the apostasy in the US had not taken place. You could not compare the US to Sodom and Gomorrah at the time of Darby or Watchman Nee.

 

[ZNP]

the earth also shall disclose her blood

Isaiah 26:1 In that day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah; We have a strong city; salvation will God appoint for walls and bulwarks.

Here we see a contrast. All those that trusted in their own strength, their own riches, their own military, they will be destroyed. Meanwhile those that trusted in the Lord, and in His plan of salvation, they will be singing.

2 Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation which keepeth the truth may enter in.

This is a reference to the rapture. The Lord gives the command to open the gates so that those marked out can be caught up and enter in. But look at the criteria, it is not "everyone that prayed 20 years ago", no it is everyone that keepeth the truth may enter in. The word of God is truth. Think about all these "Christians" today that don't keep the word, instead they say it is anachronistic or sexist. They are not keeping the truth. This word for keep means to guard, to keep watch, to observe, to retain, to treasure up. To be the "righteous nation" you must be redeemed by the blood of Jesus so that He is your righteousness. But that is not the only criteria, the other is that you keep, guard, treasure and observe the truth, the word of God.

3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.

Is your mind stayed on the Lord? Is that what you are thinking about when you get up, and during the day, and when you go to sleep? Are you in perfect peace as you see the Day approaching? If so that is evidence that your trust is in the Lord.

4 Trust ye in the Lord for ever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength: 5 For he bringeth down them that dwell on high; the lofty city, he layeth it low; he layeth it low, even to the ground; he bringeth it even to the dust.

All these ones boasting in their strength, it is not everlasting strength. Egyptian Empire, Babylonian Empire, Medo Persian Empire, Greek Empire, Roman Empire -- none of them were everlasting strength. The only way you can have everlasting strength is if you conquer death, so if your trust is in anything other than Jesus Christ, the firstborn from among the dead, you are a fool.

6 The foot shall tread it down, even the feet of the poor, and the steps of the needy. 7 The way of the just is uprightness: thou, most upright, dost weigh the path of the just.

Good news, the most upright will weigh the path of the just. Have you had to walk a difficult path? God knows, He will weigh that.

8 Yea, in the way of thy judgments, O Lord, have we waited for thee; the desire of our soul is to thy name, and to the remembrance of thee. 9 With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.

Everything will be manifested. If you have waited for the Lord, and if the Lord is the desire of your soul, it will come to light. Do you seek the Lord early? It will come to light.

10 Let favour be shewed to the wicked, yet will he not learn righteousness: in the land of uprightness will he deal unjustly, and will not behold the majesty of the Lord.

I heard someone claiming we should simply forget about the people on Epstein's list, that this would be "mercy". No, if you do that they will continue to deal unjustly and will not repent.

11 Lord, when thy hand is lifted up, they will not see: but they shall see, and be ashamed for their envy at the people; yea, the fire of thine enemies shall devour them.

I am all for people confessing their sins and bringing forth fruit worthy of repentance by cooperating with the investigation. I am also all for taking that into account when they are convicted and sentenced. But for those who refuse to confess I pray that the Lord's hand would be lifted up, and that they would be put to an open shame, and then let the fire of their enemies devour them. Prison can be a very tough place for people who abused children.

12 Lord, thou wilt ordain peace for us: for thou also hast wrought all our works in us.

It seems all the world's leaders want to declare "peace and safety". But only the Lord can because His kingdom is built on righteousness.

13 O Lord our God, other lords beside thee have had dominion over us: but by thee only will we make mention of thy name.

We have been delivered from the slavery of sin. We entered into an agreement with Satan when man took from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. However, the Lord paid the price, redeemed us and because of that we are free. You can't be a peace maker if you are not willing to pay the price.

14 They are dead, they shall not live; they are deceased, they shall not rise: therefore hast thou visited and destroyed them, and made all their memory to perish.

The wages of sin is death. If they are dead it is because they are sinners. If you want peace and safety then you must build that kingdom on a foundation of righteousness.

15 Thou hast increased the nation, O Lord, thou hast increased the nation: thou art glorified: thou hadst removed it far unto all the ends of the earth.

Take a look at the United States and Israel. These are two nations that are instructed from the word of God. They have been increased, they have been glorified. However, if they forsake the word of God as the US has done they will bring swift judgment on their head.

16 Lord, in trouble have they visited thee, they poured out a prayer when thy chastening was upon them.

This took place in the history of the US, but this word does not really apply to the US as a whole anymore. If anything, it applies to the church that the Lord Jesus has built.

17 Like as a woman with child, that draweth near the time of her delivery, is in pain, and crieth out in her pangs; so have we been in thy sight, O Lord.

Revelation 12 likens the rapture to the manchild being caught up and the mother of the child fleeing into the wilderness. You can compare the "Great Tribulation" to the Holocaust when the Jews cried out right before the time of their delivery in 1948. What you have to understand is that many Jews returned to Israel before WW2, it was the Jews who were rich and successful that didn't want to leave Germany, they were the ones that ultimately went to the gas chambers.

18 We have been with child, we have been in pain, we have as it were brought forth wind; we have not wrought any deliverance in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen.

This is not something we can do with our own strength. Abraham was only able to bring forth Ishmael with his own strength, it was faith in the promise of God that brought forth Isaac.

19 Thy dead men shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.

The entire world will be shaken and moved at the rapture.

20 Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast.

The seven year tribulation is the "indignation" of the Lord. He will deal with all who mocked and ridiculed and insulted His prophets and gave no heed to His word.

21 For, behold, the Lord cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.

There is a lot of blood guiltiness that has been hidden, it will all be disclosed.
