AMAZING REALIZATION INDICATING THE RAPTURE MAY WELL OCCUR ON THE INFAMOUS SEPTEMBER 11th!

As preface to this important realization, please refer to the previous blog entry detailing why the Feast of Trumpets/ Yom Teruah/Rosh Hashanah represents the Rapture of those whom belong to the Lord Jesus Christ:

According to NASA ,the beginning of the phase of the new moon began September 8, 2010. The Gregorian calendar thus has the two day feast of Rosh Hashanah dated to be on September 8-9, 2010.

Biblically, the Feast of Rosh Hashanah begins when the new moon was sighted by two witnesses, who then report the sighting to the Sandhedrin.

When two persons saw the new moon they would come to the Jewish High Court and give testimony that they had seen the moon.

This did not mean that the court did not know when the moon was scheduled to appear, but rather that the sanctification of the moon had to be made according to eyewitness reports. 

The court would question the witnesses to ascertain that they indeed did see the moon. Afterwards, the court proclaimed that a new month had begun.

Just today, the new moon was finally sighted by two witnesses at sunset Friday, September 10th, Jerusalem time. Therefore, it was sighted just as the weekly Shabbat (Sabbath) was commencing.

No work is allowed on the Sabbath and the carrying of shofars is considered work. It therefore, is important to realize that if the Feast of Trumpets falls on a Sabbath that no shofars will be blown. 

Instead, the shofars will be blown on the second day of the Feast of Trumpets. 

According to Biblical dictate, Jewish custom and the actual visualization of the new moon by two witnesses, the first day of this year's Feast of Trumpets is in process at present. 

Since it began at Sabbath, no shofars are to be blown until the second day of the feast.

The second day of Rosh Hashanah will begin at sunset in Jerusalem on Saturday, September 11th.

This is equivalent to 10:51 a.m.(CST) on September 11, 2010 for Americans.

At that time, the second day of Rosh Hashanah begins and the shofars will be able to sound.

From Scripture, we know that the Rapture will be accompanied by the blowing of trumpets/shofars: 

1 Corinthians 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

As such, many indicators, appears to point to the possibility that the timing of the Rapture may occur on the second day of Rosh Hashanah.

Those who are focused on the living Christ, may soon meet the Lord in the air, when the great shofar sounds!

1 Thes 4:15-18 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

Notable is the fact that even if we had been told that the Rapture would occur on Yom Teruah 2010, we still could have not known the day or the hour because of the difference in time zones as well as the delayed sighting of the new moon.

Now we have this new realization that due to Rosh Hashanah falling on the Sabbath, that the shofar cannot sound until the second day, being the infamous September 11th.

As we appear to be nearing the return of Christ, may we prepare and examine ourselves, making sure we have truly repentant and forgiving hearts, with our focus fully on our Savior!! 

Even so come Lord Jesus, Yeshua Ha Mashiach!
