GOD'S PROPHETIC PLAN REVEALED IN THESE VERY LAST DAYS! PART 2

Now we will delve into more incredible  information that appears to substantiate even further, the premise we are fast approaching the beginning of either the Tribulation period or more probable, the beginning of the period of the Great Tribulation.

Please refer to Part 1 of this series examining the "blood moon" tetrads. The facts contained therein evidence that at the time of Creation, God placed celestial signals in the heavens, to relay the precise timing of the latter days:

 
http://theworldisshaking.blogspot.com/2012/03/gods-prophetic-plan-revealed-in-these.html

The rarity of these lunar eclipses occurring on God's Feast Days of Passover/Tabernacles, correlating perfectly with major historical events pertaining to His chosen people of Israel, attests that they are indeed divinely placed markers of the last days.

For additional information regarding the tetrads, please see the following video which outlines these astronomical harbingers with an easy to understand graph:

Before going into further detail, first some facts that are vital to the comprehension of the newly discovered factors, need to be covered:

1)The Feast Days set forth in the Book of Leviticus are not just for the Jews. God literally says that they are HIS appointed Feasts. Since the Feasts belong to the Lord, they are to be observed by ALL who belong to Him, both Jew and Gentile.

2) God's Feast Days are actually dress rehearsals of His plan of redemption. This is why He gave them to us; to show us His plan for all the ages.

3)A Biblical day count goes from sunset to sunset. The day begins at sunset.

4) A Biblical year is according to the lunar, not solar calendar. Therefore, a Biblical year is 360 days, as opposed to the 365 days of our Gregorian calendar.

5) 49 / 50 years is approximately equal to the time God decreed to be a Jubilee. A Jubilee year was mandated by God as a time for all debts to be forgiven. The land was to actually change hands to the original owners and all slaves were to be set free.
 
6) A Jubilee year could only be proclaimed on the Lord's appointed Feast, the Day of Atonement/Yom Kippur, by the High Priest.

Most eschatologists concur that the Second Coming Of Jesus, Yeshua HaMashiach, must culminate on a Jubilee year. When the King of Kings returns in glory, He will be coming to redeem the Earth and release mankind from the bondage of sin.

Liberty will be declared "throughout the land" and all captives will be set free:

Leviticus 25: ¹⁰ And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a JUBILEE unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family.

The question at hand is therefore, when is the next Jubilee year? By arriving at that conclusion, we can theorize that the  Day of Atonement in that particular year will be the date of the Second Coming, when the Messiah returns to liberate all.

There are several reliable formulas that all appear to arrive at the same year. There is one simple one that appears to be indisputable proof, all by itself.

The starting date is June 7, 1967. This is the day that modern day Israel recaptured Jerusalem and the Temple Mount. This is the first time since the time of Christ that both were transferred back into the hands of the original owners, the people of Israel.

This precisely meets the requirement of a Jubilee year and with the possessions most dear to God, His Holy City of Jerusalem and His Temple Mount.

The Jubilee begins at on the fiftieth year. Therefore, we will take June 7, 1967 and add 49 Biblical years (of 360 days each) to determine the next Jubilee.

49 years of 360 days added to June 7, 1967  lands DIRECTLY on the Day of Atonement 2015, September 23, 2015, to the very day!

Bear in mind that the blood moon tetrads point precisely to the Lord's Feast of Tabernacles in 2015! The Feast of Tabernacles is God's appointed Feast that begins a mere ten days after the Day of Atonement.

For further details of how intricate these appointed Feasts are, in relating God's prophetic plan please see:

http://www.layevangelism.com/qreference/chapter33.htm
 
This fact that the fiftieth year of the Jubilee, that can only be proclaimed on a Day of Atonement, is aligning perfectly with Day of Atonement 2015 is beyond amazing!

The combination of this fact, along with the blood moon tetrad pointing to 2015, is surely against all odds!

We can thus see that the Lord graciously gave His Feast Days for His people to observe, so that we could be aware of His end times plan.

Next, we must determine the length of the Great Tribulation period by reviewing the Book of Daniel:

Daniel 12:7 It shall be for a time, times and half a time (3 and half= 1260 day/years) when the power of the holy people has been shattered,all these shall be finished.

As such, we then need only to count backwards exactly 1260 days from the Second Coming, in order to arrive at the Beginning of the Great Tribulation.

Taking the pinpointed Day of Atonement 2015 and deducting exactly 1260 days leads to the middle of Passover 2012, landing exactly on April 11, 2012.

Therefore, April 11, 2012 appears to be the beginning of the Great Tribulation, which is also known as the Time of Jacob's Trouble and the time of God's Wrath. 

April 11, 2012 also falls during Passover week on the Lord's Feast Day of Unleavened Bread.

If this is indeed the beginning of the Great Tribulation, Lord willing, there will be the Rapture of the readied Bride just prior. 

It is crucial to understand God's Spring Feast Days occurring during the week of Passover. Included are the exact days that they fall on our 2012 Gregorian calendar.

 April 6, 2012   Passover
April 7, 2012   Feast of Unleavened Bread
April 8, 2012   Firstfruits  

NOTE: The Feast of Unleavened Bread continues from April 7-14, 2012

As such, Passover week is from April 6-14th of this year.

There has been a recent unveiling of newly discovered Bible Codes/Torah Codes.

This revealing of previously unknown, hidden "WORDS" in the Holy Bible appear to be the  prophesied "words concealed and sealed up until the time of the end ", foretold by Daniel.

DANIEL 12:9 He said, "Go your way, Daniel, for these WORDS CONCEALED AND SEALED UP UNTIL THE END TIME.

Jewish Rabbi researchers discovered these exciting new Torah/Bible codes that are being unsealed and revealed here,"at the time of the end".

It is important to realize that The Creator, God, is a mathematician. All of creation has perfect mathematical dimensions.

This mathematically proven Torah Code appears to be God's  supernatural message given to us,right now, "at the time of the end".

Please see the below link for the trailer for the upcoming documentary "Torah Code 2012". It begins with this  profound statement:

"There is a code in the Torah. The first five books of the Old Testament. The code is real and Mathematically provable. The advent of the computer has made it possible."

http://about2012.biz/science/another-2012-doomsday-prophecy-torah-code-allegedly-points-to-passover-as/

The accompanying article about the Torah Code 2012 quotes the Rabbis as saying:

"We have a bunch of tables on war, on World War"  as well as "This is Case Olam the end of the world".

"But also in the 2012 codes...the hope of a biblical promise fulfilled."

"There's a number of 2012 tables that talk about redemption, and they're usually connected a lot with the return of the Messiah"

"This event ... points to this year’s Passover, April 6 through 14, 2012."
 


The fact that they found the word, PASSOVER, connected with the above world changing events, is astounding by itself.

Further connect the blood moon tetrads and the Jubilee year; which all point directly to September 23, 2015, Day of Atonement.

Next, deduct Daniel's 3 1/2 year time frame from Day of Atonement of 2015 which lands us directly on April 11, 2012 (PASSOVER week of 2012), which appears to be the beginning of the Great Tribulation.

The odds of the newly discovered Torah Code perfectly aligning with the above facts, with the exact same time frame, is surely incalculable!!

It appears that God has revealed through His Feasts, His Torah and His signs in the Heavens the general time frame of our redemption.

It also appears to mark the beginning of His wrath, which will be unleashed on the lukewarm along with unbelievers.

The Jewish Rabbi's interpretation of the Torah Code's "redemption" and the "return of the Messiah" appears to correlate with the redemption/Rapture of the readied Bride.

"And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh." Luke 21:28
 
However, the unbelieving Jews may mistakenly correlate this to mean that their Messiah has physically come as they have been expecting.

Thus, this newly revealed code may not only indicate the Rapture of those found serving the Lord, but may also indicate the revealing of the antichrist; that the Jews will first accept as their long awaited Messiah.

Additionally, the fact that the Passover 2012 Torah Code reveals "WORLD WAR" appears to correspond perfectly with the mindset that the Rapture happens before "sudden destruction'"

A world war would certainly be a plausible way to commence the Tribulation/Great Tribulation.

 "While they are saying, "Peace and safety!" then sudden destruction will come upon them suddenly like labor pains upon a woman with child, and they will not escape." 1 Thessalonians 5:3

It appears clear that God is so merciful that He has actually given us this precise window of time, so that we can know to prepare ourselves for either His coming, or to be able to endure until He comes.

May we all see that it is time to examine ourselves and ask God to reveal anything that is not pleasing to Him or that is not in accordance with His Word.

It is time to NOW let go of the distractions of this world, lest they bog many down to where we would be left behind, facing the coming horrors of God's wrath.

Please "stay tuned" for a Part 3 to these amazing revelations. The compilation of the coming additional information will solidify even further that after Passover week 2012, life for all the inhabitants of planet Earth, will be forever changed!

BREAKING NEWS!!

"Jews Practice Passover/Pesach Sacrifice, Declare: We Are Ready!" 


This is the first time in 2000 years, that religious Jews are out in the open, practicing animal sacrifices in Jerusalem eve of the coming "Feast of Passover".

They are proclaiming "WE ARE READY" here at Passover 2012!

We, who profess Christ, also need to be making sure that "we are ready"!

Combine this with the all of the above supporting information and we can see for sure, IT IS TIME!

AN OPEN LETTER TO THE PASTORS IN THESE LAST DAYS

Dear Church Pastors:

What a precarious position you may be placing yourself AND many others in.

Many leaders appear to be refusing to sound the alarm that we are in the end times, out of concern that  many church attendees may disapprove of the "negativity".

The pastors fear that any perceived "negativity" by churchgoers may cause church attendance to dwindle and thus, income to drop.

This mindset, focused on materialism, may have eternal consequences for the many in front of, as well as behind the church podiums.

The flocks are looking to their shepherds to guide and direct them. Most laypeople (the flock), are not watching as commanded themselves.

They assume that their clergymen, being seminary-trained, steeped in Bible degrees/knowledge, are doing the watching for them.

They naturally are presuming that their leaders are alert and diligently watching for the last days signals given to us by Yeshua.

Therefore, many occupying the pews are depending entirely on those behind the pulpits to warn them of the signs of the times.

The situation, wherein most pulpits are eerily silent about the last days, is primarily because the modern day Church has evolved into a business, instead of a ministry.

There again are moneychangers where there is instead supposed to be the sharing of the FREE gift of eternal salvation.

Spreading the Good News was NEVER supposed to be a paid profession for a reason. It turns many a minister of the Gospel into something akin to a politician, trying to garner votes.

Often, it morphs the ministry into a matter of popularity and telling people whatever they want to hear, in order to profit the man.

Being a paid minister of the Gospel makes one dependent on the salary afforded to them by the Church. Of course, maintaining the big business of today's churches are sustained only through contributions of congregants.

Church leaders therefore are forced to keep the contributions flowing, in order to maintain their lifestyle/support their family.

This need has enticed many pastors to stick to keeping the message "fluffy", entertaining and bursting with sunshine.

Just as in the case of politicians, it is important to uplift the people and only tell them what "tickles their ears", if they want the people's continued attendance, along with the accompanying continued cash flow.

"A time will come when people will not listen to accurate teachings. Instead, they will follow their own desires and surround themselves with teachers who tell them what they want to hear." 2 Timothy 4:3

This need for maintaining a regularity in financial support has lead to where a majority of pastors are totally negligent in watching, let alone warning, about the rapidly advancing fulfillment of last days Bible prophecy.

Those who have been entrusted with the welfare of the flocks need to remember that by assuming the role as leaders/teachers, that they will be judged more severely:
 
"My brethren, be not many teachers, knowing that we shall receive the severer judgment." James 3:1

God, in His omnipotence, seeing the end from the beginning, knew that in these last days that the Church at large, would evolve into a business. 

"Only I can tell you the future before it even happens. Everything I plan will come to pass, for I do whatever I wish." Isaiah 46:10

As a result, God has called laypeople to be watchmen on the wall, to stand in the stead for the leaders of the churches; who have chosen to protect their family incomes instead of spiritually protecting their flocks.

These watchmen come from all walks of life and are primarily composed of laypeople. Since they are not trained pastors, most of the flock usually see the watchmen as either inept or incapable. Oftentimes, they even view the watchmen as eccentric and ostracizable.

Any of these perspectives cause the people in the pews to virtually ignore the watchmen and their warnings.

As we draw yet closer to the prophesied Time of Jacob's Trouble/Tribulation and the Rapture of the readied Bride, God appears to be calling even more watchmen in, to man the walls for the last watches.

There are watchmen of all genders, races and nationalities now sounding the alarm all over the internet.

From Facebook and Youtube to individual websites and Rapture based message boards, the clarion call can be heard all over the world wide web.

God loves His people so deeply that He commanded us to watch for the plethora of signs that He foretold that would signal the end of the age.

It is up to each believer to choose to either heed, or to ignore, the watchmen's cries of alarm.

According to Ezekiel, obedient watchmen will not be held accountable for the choices of those warned.

However, those in the pulpits, shepherding the flocks, will be held accountable for the blood of those in their care, if they choose to not blow the trumpet of warning.
 
"But if the watchman sees the sword come, and blows not the trumpet, and the people are not warned; if the sword comes, and takes any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman's hand." Ezekiel 33:6

Thus, the negligent leaders behind the lecterns are not only heaping more severe judgment upon themselves, but also leaving many in their congregations woefully unprepared.

If all pastors were faithfully warning their flocks, their flocks would be fully aware of the nearness of the coming of the Lord. Being convinced and aware, these believers would in turn, start sounding the alarm themselves.

Eventually, the internet would be all abuzz with warnings by all believers that we are at the end of the age. Even non-believers would become aware that all the increasing abnormalcy on the planet is actually  Biblical prophecy coming to pass.

Many of the lost would be saved and the lukewarm would be readied.

Due to all the preceding factors, it is imperative that all ministers of the Gospel realize that by disobeying the Lord's command to watch, a multitude of souls are at stake (including their own).

WHY WAS THERE AN EAST COAST EARTHQUAKE AND WHY IS HURRICANE IRENE HEADED ALSO TO THE EAST COAST??

Many Americans are perplexed and perhaps even frightened about the sudden and potentially disastrous events which are affecting our eastern seaboard this week.

Important to note is that in the book of Genesis, God warned all nations that they would be blessed or cursed, according to their treatment of the descendents of Abraham, Issac and Jacob (Israel):

God gave notice to all nations via the Abrahamic Covenant and God cannot lie.

"I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse;.." Genesis 12:31

Now, we will examine the multiple recent "curses" that the president of the United States is inflicting upon the children of Israel.

In May of 2011, Obama incited the enemies of Israel with his speech which he said that they should go back to the pre 1967 borders.

For details regarding this incitement please refer to this previous blog entry:

http://theworldisshaking.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html

Next, Obama somehow coaxed Prime Minister Netanyahu into entering new negotiations for a "peace plan".

At the beginnng of August 2011 it was reported that: "President Barack Obama has wrung a big concession from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu who has essentially agreed to accept the 1967 borders as a starting point for peace talks with the Palestinians."

There is no telling what amount of threats or cohersion was utilized by Obama to get this about face turn from Netanyahu. 

Previously, the prime minister had staunchly and defiantly declared to Obama "1967 borders 'Indefensible!'"

"Netanyahu told President Barack Obama he's willing to make some compromises to achieve peace in his nation, but that returning to Israel's 1967 borders is not an option."

http://www.cbn.com/cbnnews/insideisrael/2011/May/Israel-US-Headed-for-Showdown-over-Border-Issue/ 

As the below linked article asserts :

 "The decision by Netanyahu represents a dramatic policy shift for the Israeli prime minister who was incensed in May when Obama publicly proposed that the 1967 borders be the basis for negotiations with the Palestinians"

 http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0811/60429.html#ixzz1W68iQ4WJ

As if that wasn't enough cursing of Israel, Obama next ordered Israel to apologize to Turkey regarding last year's flotilla incident. 

For details of the Turkish flotilla activists who tried to break the Gaza blockade, in order to antagonize Israel, please see this entry:

http://theworldisshaking.blogspot.com/2010/05/psalm-war-is-about-to-erupt-in-middle.html

Just last week, Obama sent a veiled threat through Secretary of State Clinton to Israel.

This threat against Israel, in essence, was that if they did not obey and apologize to Turkey; that America would no longer support or protect Israel regarding next month's U.N. statehood bid by the Palestinians.

"if Israel does not comply with Clinton’s request to apologize to Turkey, the White House may suddenly find itself unable to continue building opposition to a unilateral Palestinian declaration of statehood at the UN next month." 

http://quitenormal.wordpress.com/2011/08/17/bibi-refuses-clintons-request-that-israel-apologize-to-turkey/

Interestingly, Hurricane Irene started formation, around the coast of Africa, about the same exact time last week that this threat to no longer support Israel, was issued by America.

This hurricane is trekking toward America's east coast and it is feared that it may effect millions and be quite catastrophic. 

"Irene: Worst Effects on Northeast in 50 Years Possible"

  http://www.accuweather.com/blogs/news/story/54235/irene-could-bring-the-worst-no.asp

Noteworthy is the fact that Irene means "PEACE" which is exactly what Obama has been supposedly trying to do with his Mideast"PEACE plan" on Israel; by dividing her Covenant land and splitting God's Holy City of Jerusalem!

Just a few days ago the East Coast experienced a 5.8 earthquake that was strong enough that it was felt from Canada to Atlanta, Georgia.

It would seem that a quake felt such large distances apart should have caused massive devastation, injuries and casualties near the epicenter and other regions, especially in such populated areas.

However, there was only moderate structural damage in the many areas affected but there were NO FATALITIES nor severe injuries even in the densely populated capital, Washington D.C. and other such populous areas.

The fact that there was no loss of life and few injuries is nothing short of miraculous and appears to evidence that this was a warning, much like the miraculous 7.0 Christchurch quake almost one year ago.

Please see entry regarding the miracles of the September 2010, Christchurch earthquake:

http://theworldisshaking.blogspot.com/2010/09/is-rapture-just-days-away.html

As mentioned, the miraculous 7.0 Christchurch quake was last September. 

This appears to have been a one year warning to CHRIST'S CHURCH to wake up, prepare themselves and bring in the Harvest; as many end times events seem to converging this September.

It is important to realize that since Obama's recent threat last week to NOT oppose the recognition of a Palestinian state in the UN, that attacks have begun on Israel's border with Egypt.

In addition, Israel has since been receiving many incoming rockets towards her civilian population from Gaza. 


In essence, Obama's curses have emboldened Israel's many enemies to come against her.

What Obama may not realize is that the formation of Irene also began around the same time the rocket attacks were initiated which followed his ultimatum to no longer support Israel in the U.N.

The timing of these related events is inexplicable and may be God's "curse for a curse" clause; coming upon America for Obama's actions against Israel.

This week's 5.8 quake appears to have been a warning to America because of (Obama's) cursing Israel with his PEACE plan to divide Jerusalem.

Hurricane Irene however may not be just a warning, but actually be God's righteous Judgment being wrought upon America, for our president's recent actions against the nation of Israel.

As mentioned, Irene means "peace" and may well symbolize the reason for the coming JUDGMENT that Hurricane Irene may be now be bringing: due to Obama's cursing Israel with his proposed "peace plan" which consists of giving away God's Covenant land.

It is no coincidence that Obama is currently trying to force Israel to give up EAST Jerusalem and right now, America's entire EAST coast is under severe threat by Hurricane Irene, just days after the 5.8 quake shook America's entire EAST coast.

God will not be mocked!!

"And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] I will seek to destroy all the nations THAT COME AGAINST JERUSALEM". Zechariah 12:9 

Bible History shows that many times the innocent suffer because of the decisions of their evil leaders/kings. 

There may be many Americans who may suffer loss of life or property due to the anti-Israel stance that our elected leader, Obama has continiously held.

Perhaps, Hurricane Irene may be another warning.

However, it is very possible that America has already been warned by the miraculous 5.8 eastern seaboard quake, in which all lives were spared.

As Hurricane Irene churns towards America's East Coast, it is quite possible that we may be facing God's Judgment for the curses Obama has laid upon Israel.

We need to pray for the many in harm's way and ask the Lord to protect His chosen ones in His day of anger.

May many of the Christians slumbering comfortably in bed with the world finally start  to see God's prophetic Word is coming to pass and that it is time to wake up and be ready!


The hour is growing very late and so very,very many are not ready.

So many professing Christians are in a love affair with the world, having being entangled by the cares of the world.

These lukewarm, whose allegiance is to the world, will be left behind to face the soon coming Tribulation horrors.

They have unknowingly made themselves enemies of God by giving the material and temporal of this world priority over Him.

You adulterous people, don't you know that friendship with the world is hatred toward God? Anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God. James 4:4

 

 

 

 

 

IS THE CHRISTCHURCH EARTHQUAKE A SIGNAL TO CHRIST'S CHURCH?

Everyone knows the basic mechanics of earthquakes and that they occur due to slippage of faults, at fault lines.

So it is well realized that earthquakes originate from the sudden movements of the earth's tectonic plates, close to the earth's surface, along zones of pre-existing weakness called faults.

As such, great earthquakes are associated with major faults (cracks) in the crust. When the faults are locked tightly together, the strain accumulates without producing earthquakes. When the faults relax, the rocks slip and shake the earth.

Incredible as it is, there was NO fault at or near Christchurch, New Zealand, prior to the recent massive 7.0 quake!! 

Instead, it is widely reported that this huge quake actually "ripped a new fault line in the Earth's surface".
 

"New Zealand Quake Rips New Fault."

"The powerful earthquake that smashed buildings, cracked roads and twisted rail lines around the New Zealand city of Christchurch also ripped a new fault line in the Earth's surface, a geologist said Sunday".

 

http://www.aolnews.com/world/article/widespread-damage-caused-in-new-zealand-earthquake/19621106

"Earth's surface 'lurches 11ft to the right' as New Zealand earthquake rips new fault line".

"The earthquake that devastated a city in New Zealand tore open a new 11ft fault line in the Earth’s surface."

"The 7.1-magnitude quake which hit Christchurch, the country’s second-largest city, destroyed about 500 buildings and caused an estimated £930million of damage."

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1309194/New-Zealand-earthquake-rips-new-fault-line-Earths-surface-lurches-11ft.html#ixzz0ykpVd6Ut

 "Miraculous"

  
The Prime Minister of New Zealand, "who visited earthquake-stricken parts of the country's South Island over the weekend, said 430 houses and another 70 buildings had already been earmarked for demolition by assessment teams."

 

"About 100,000 of the 160,000 homes in the Christchurch, Selwyn and Waimakariri areas had sustained some damage, he added."

"I was awe-struck by the power of the earthquake and the damage it has caused in the city," he told reporters. "It was miraculous that nobody was killed."

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-pacific-11191105

 The scientific awareness of normal plate tectonics as the cause of earthquakes, gives deeper meaning to the supernatural significance of this recent 7.0 quake in Christchurch, New Zealand. 

As reported, the earth's surface just "lurched" and ripped a new fault line. 

This event is surely phenomenal and shows the handprint of God as the crust just ripped open, while sparing the lives of the entire populace of the city.

 As the Prime Minister stated "It was "miraculous that nobody was killed".

 

Even though there were more than 100,000 buildings suffering damage and more than 500 structures so severely damaged that they are slated for demolition, there were no casualties.

 

This is another factor that is surely confounding the experts. What are the chances that out of more than 500 buildings being destroyed at 4:35 am when most residents would be at home,sleeping, that no lives would be lost?

 

Only two people out of the city's 348,400 residents sustained serious injuries even though "When the earthquake finally ended the city looked like a scene from a horror film".

 

http://www.heraldscotland.com/news/world-news/when-the-earthquake-finally-ended-the-city-looked-like-a-scene-from-a-horror-film-1.1052928

 "Only two serious injuries were reported from the quake as chimneys and walls of older buildings were reduced to rubble and crumbled to the ground. Prime Minister John Key said it was a miracle no one was killed."

http://tvnz.co.nz/national-news/christchurch-hospital-flat-3759880

  

God mercifully allowed none to perish and only two to be seriously injured with this sign that He has surely presented to us. 

Apparently, God used the city named CHRISTCHURCH in which it was scientifically impossible to experience an earthquake. 

 

It therefore appears evident that the God of Heaven ripped open the crust because previously there was NO FAULT LINE at or near Christchurch New Zealand, but there is now!

 

Research on the other "Christchurch" city on our globe, which is in Barbados, shows that it IS on a fault line.

 

So, the difference between the two is that the Christchurch in Barbados is on a fault line whereas Christchurch, New Zealand was not.

 

It appears that the Lord purposefully used the "Christchurch" where an earthquake was impossible according to plate tectonics, so as to prove it was His intervention.

 

Interesting to note, New Zealand's main commercial activity is the raising of sheep.

 

The fact that sheep are representative of New Zealand further evidences the strong possibility that this is a signal from the Lord to His sheep, the flock of Jesus Christ! 

 

John 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.

 

When the disciples questioned Jesus about His coming and the end of the age Jesus answered them: "But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man" Matthew 24:37  

 

This verse has perplexed many, resulting in various interpretations. If we review the Scripture, we see in Genesis that Noah's ark was shut by God and it was SEVEN days before the flood started. 

 

Because of this fact, many Bible prophecy scholars have theorized that there will be a warning seven days prior to the Rapture and the subsequent beginning of the "flood" of Tribulation events.

 

Genesis 7

The Great Flood

 ¹ Then the LORD said to Noah, “Come into the ark, you and all your household, because I have seen that you are righteous before Me in this generation. ² You shall take with you seven each of every clean animal, a male and his female; two each of animals that are unclean, a male and his female; ³ also seven each of birds of the air, male and female, to keep the species alive on the face of all the earth. ⁴ For after seven more days I will cause it to rain on the earth forty days and forty nights, and I will destroy from the face of the earth all living things that I have made.” ⁵ And Noah did according to all that the LORD commanded him. ⁶ Noah was six hundred years old when the floodwaters were on the earth.
⁷ So Noah, with his sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives, went into the ark because of the waters of the flood. ⁸ Of clean animals, of animals that are unclean, of birds, and of everything that creeps on the earth, ⁹ two by two they went into the ark to Noah, male and female, as God had commanded Noah. ¹⁰ And it came to pass after seven days that the waters of the flood were on the earth....¹⁶ So those that entered, male and female of all flesh, went in as God had commanded him; and the LORD shut him in. 

Note that the chapter in Genesis describing the days of Noah is Chapter 7. The Christchurch earthquake was a 7.0 magnitude and it occurred, Israeli time, 7 days before Rosh Hashanah.

 

Rosh Hashanah is God's appointed feast day that most prophecy students and Messianic rabbis believe it to be representative of the Rapture of the Church.

 

The number seven is the Biblical number of completion. God, with all the astonishing events outlined above, may be signaling the completion of the Church Age to those who have been watching and are aware that Rosh Hashanah coincides with the Rapture!

 

Please see the following website for an elaboration on God's perfect number being the number, 7 :

Now, we will delve into the significance of this possible seven day warning ending with the celebration of the feast of Rosh Hashanah.

 

The first thing that Christ-followers need to realize is that God's feast days that He outlined in the Torah, represent God's plan of redemption, compromising both His first and second coming. 

 

Jesus has already fulfilled all the Spring Feast days with His first coming.


The upcoming Fall feast days represent the Rapture, His Second Coming and the Millennial period. 

The next feast day to be fulfilled would be the first Fall festival, Rosh Hashanah.

It is important to remember that the feast days are NOT just Jewish feast days but are God's feast days. In the book of Leviticus, God stressed that they are HIS feast days. 

 

Leviticus 23: 

1The Lord said to Moses, 2“Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘These are my appointed feasts, the appointed feasts of the Lord, which you are to proclaim as sacred assemblies.

 

So, the festival (feast) days belong to the Lord Himself. His followers, Jew and Gentile are to keep them. 

 

If the Church had been observing God's feast days then they would have realized that His return for His own would come one Rosh Hashanah/ Yom Teruah.

 

It is noteworthy to realize that Rosh Hashanah has several different titles, all referring to the same festival.

 

It is also known as Yom Teruah,or the Feast of Trumpets. These titles, as well as other names for this important festival, will be used interchangeably throughout this entry. 

 

The Jewish idiom for God's feast day of Yom Teruah, is the feast "of which no man knows the day or the hour". 

 

 

Due to the dispersion of the Jewish people from their land in ancient days, the feast of the new moon/Yom Teruah could have been over before word of the sighting of the new moon spread to those dispersed in Babylon.

 

Therefore, Rosh Hashanah was celebrated as a two day festival but recognized as one long day. It is the only feast day that begins at the sighting of the new moon by two witnesses in Jerusalem. 

 

Because of this, no one could know for certain, beforehand, the day or hour of the beginning of the feast of Yom Teruah.

Bear in mind that Yeshua (Jesus)was Jewish, speaking to His Jewish disciples when He used this well known Jewish idiom: 

 

Matt. 24: 36“ No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

 

Just as in American culture, one would know that if someone informed them that they would visit them on "Turkey Day'" that they were indicating Thanksgiving. 

 

In the same manner, the Scripture indicates that our Jewish Savior was referring to the well known 2 day feast of Yom Teruah/"on a day or hour that no man knows" (which is also an idiom of this feast being representative of the Jewish Wedding). 

 

"Of that day or hour no man knows, but my Father only" is the expression used by a Jewish groom when asked when he will go and steal away his bride "like a thief in the night".

 

1 Thessalonians 5:2 For you yourselves are fully aware that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.

 

The Jewish groom (representing Jesus) goes away to prepare a place for his bride. When preparations on the bridal chamber are completed, the father of the groom (representing our Heavenly Father)tells his son it is time to fetch his bride.

 

The Feast of Trumpets is also known as the "wedding of the Messiah", and therefore, the expression about "not knowing the day or the hour" refers to the Jewish wedding custom in relation to this feast.

 

Believers are the Bride of Christ for whom the Bridegroom, Yeshua, (Jesus) will one day come to take to His Father's House, at the time of the Rapture.

 

Therefore, it is clear that the Rapture must take place on a Feast of Trumpets/the wedding of the Messiah.

 

Remember Jesus's assurance to us, His Bride:

 

Matthew 14:1“Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me. 2There is more than enough room in my Father’s home.^a If this were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you?^b 3When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with me where I am.

 

Thus, it can easily be seen how this feast day represents the Rapture, as the Bride of Christ, we are caught up in the air to be with the Lord and to attend the marriage supper of the Lamb.

The title, Yom Teruah, means Day of Trumpets in Hebrew. There is the blowing of 100 shofar blasts towards the very end of the celebration of this feast. 

The one hundredth and last blast is called "THE LAST TRUMP".  

 

Just as Jesus was Jewish speaking to a Jewish audience so was Paul, as a Jew, relating the well known Jewish name for the last shofar blast blown ending the Feast of Trumpets/Yom Teruah.

 

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.

  

On The Feast of Trumpets, the challah, or special bread, is baked into the shape of a circle, representing a crown.

It is on this day that the coronation of the King is to occur and the King which we know to be Yeshua Ha Mashiach, is to be enthroned on this festival/feast day. The shofar is blown during the coronation of a king. 

 

As such, it can be seen that one day, on a Yom Teruah, (which means the "day of blowing") that the shofars will be blown announcing the coronation of King Jesus!

 

The thirty days prior to Yom Teruah are the month of Elul. Daily during this month, leading up to Rosh Hashanah, we are supposed to reflect on our lives because God's judgment is coming on Rosh Hashanah.

The message from Elul 1 to Rosh Hashanah is clear: Repent before Rosh Hashanah. Don’t wait until after Rosh Hashanah, or you will find yourself in the Days of Awe.

The Days of Awe are the seven days in between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur/Day of Atonement.

These 7 days represent the 7 year Tribulation period and The Day of Atonement represents the Second Coming of Jesus.


God is so loving and merciful that He gave us each year, 30 days to search our hearts and repent prior to what one year will be the Rapture on a Yom Teruah.

Another name for Rosh Hashanah is Yom HaDin which means Day of Judgment. The Jewish people believe that on Rosh Hashanah the"books” are opened in heaven. 

There are three books opened - that of life, for those whose works had been good; another of death, for those who had been thoroughly evil; and a third, intermediate.

Those classified as intermediate are those whose case will be decided on the Day of Atonement (seven days after Rosh Hoshanna on Yom Kippur).

The delay is granted for true repentance, which without, their names would be finally entered, into the book of of death. 

For those who truly repent and forgive others, their names will be entered into the book of Life.

The opening of the books on Rosh Hashanah signifies the judgment of mankind wherein the righteous will be taken in the Rapture and the intermediates and wicked will be left behind to face the 7 year Tribulation. 

The intermediates are those who Jesus called lukewarm and warned He would "vomit" them out of His mouth. 

Revelation 3:15-17

¹⁵ “I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. ¹⁶ So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot,^[a] I will vomit you out of My mouth. 

Recognizing this, all professing Christians need to make sure their focus is on the things of God instead of the world:

Revelation 3: 17 Because you say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’—and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked

Rosh Hashanah is also known as Yom HaKeseh (Day of the Hiding or Hidden Day) which one may translate into the raptured Bride of Christ being "hidden" in Heaven during the cataclysmic events of the 7 year Tribulation (correlating with the 7 days of Awe).

One of the reasons for blowing the shofar is to proclaim the resurrection of the dead. Jewish thought is that the resurrection of the dead will take place on a Rosh Hashanah. 

In addition, this feast  is also known as the Day of the Awakening Blast or The Day of the Awakening Shout.

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. 

The blast of the shofar and the shout of the Lord will one day awaken those who now sleep.

With the dead in Christ, those who are alive and truly belong to the risen Lord, will be "caught up together with them into the clouds" into glorified bodies and everlasting life.

Also, the gates of Heaven are understood to be opened on Rosh Hashanah.  

As such, it is further evidence that the Rapture of the believers in Christ will take place on a Rosh Hashanah when the gates of Heaven are open, in which we may enter in.

The time of sorrows (birth pains) have been steadily growing stronger and closer together just as Jesus prophesied they would as the time of the end drew near.

 Matthew 24:⁶And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

 ⁷For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.

 ⁸All these are the beginning of sorrows.

Therefore, we can be able to recognize how close to the end we are on God's prophetic timeline. 

This recent 7.0 earthquake in CHRISTCHURCH  was scientifically improbable as there was no fault line until the crust ripped open and formed one.

The fact that there were NO casualties and ONLY 2 serious injuries even though more than 500 buildings were destroyed and 100,000 homes suffered damaged (in a city with a population of 348,400) is definitely nothing short of being miraculous.

As the Prime Minister of New Zealand so aptly summarized:

"It was a miracle no one was killed".

This all happening SEVEN days before Rosh Hashanah indeed appears to be a miracle as well as a sign from God to those who are watching.

The hour is growing late. We are at the end of the age and our Lord is returning. 

We will soon know whether or not it is THIS Rosh Hashanah, as we are but days away.

If there is any uncertainty of our standing with God, we need to repent and draw near to Him, asking to be accounted worthy to escape the wrath to come.

Luke 21:36 Watch you therefore, and pray always, that you may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
