Subject: Tying up ALL LOOSE ENDS about ENDTIME PROPHECY (MUST READ!)
I have posted these things I am going to write multitudes of times - but I believe it is time to put them all together into easily understood clarity. The post trib Rapture people are obviously wrong, and there are evident reasons from the Bible to know that. However, the majority of pretribbers are also wrong. The "seven years left" claim is totally unscriptural. Yes, the Rapture is imminent. And there are a few other misconceptions and 'loose ends' I will deal with here. First of all- let's get into the claim of "seven years" - and that basically comes from Daniel 9:25-27. First of all, Daniel's seventieth week is mentioned in Daniel 9:25 and 26. But if you look closely, you will see a reference to JESUS! He did his three and one half years of ministry, then was "CUT OFF"- "not for His own sake". Cut off means crucified. And if he had gone the full gamut of seven years, He would have completed the seventieth week of Daniel, and the Gentiles would have been excluded, along with all of us who weren't born yet. And so forth. The millennial reign would have begun, but that was not the plan. So you see, one half of Daniel's 70th week has already been fulfilled. It will resume for another three and one half years under the demonic control of the coming Antichrist. Now, moving on the Daniel 9:27.... this is NOT about the 70th week of Daniel. But it IS about a seven year covenant. The actual word "heptad" means seven years. But the part that gets distorted is the "midst", when this is broken. It is NOT NECESSARILY right in the middle of any seven year period. It can be ANYTIME during that seven year period. Now if you look in Daniel chapter 12, there are two references to days that are both thirty days longer than the three and one half 360 days long years and seventy five days longer than the three and one half day years. So HERE is what I believe is the proper calculation for the Rapture. It will be exactly 75 days before the point that leaves three and one half 360 day years. THIS will give some leverage for the time that the covenant is made and broken just a number of those days into it, not three and one half years into it. It will allow for the formation of the globalist government and the rising of the Antichrist, the abomination of desolation, and all that will transpire very quickly after the Rapture. OK, now I hope that is clear. Moving on to more facts that get prophetically distorted, generally. As most of you who read my writings know, I believe the first five seal judgments are equated with the birth pangs or beginning of sorrows, so are happening now. They have been happening for around two thousand years, but have escalated in intensity and frequency. I can demonstrate in the fifth seal judgment in Revelation six, for instance, that when the martyrs from NOW are under the altar asking "HOW LONG" until Jesus begins to avenge their martyrdom, that they are CURRENT martyrs. Not from later. But that is not the purpose here- that's been done already. I've demonstrated that Revelation 4:1, when the call to 'come up here' to John was made, it can STILL accurately equate with the Rapture and the Rapture can be- and I believe is- in Revelation 6:12-14. Because the two 'in heaven' chapters, 4 and 5 stretch out through time and the Bible has to be written with some order, not interrupting itself, but I have done that. OK, now in the sixth seal judgment, the one where I believe the Rapture is clearly contained (and you will see that if your read it), I also believe is in synchrony with the attempted invasion of Israel in Ezekiel 38 and 39- Gog and Magog. And if you look at the verses still in Revelation chapter six right after the "biggies" of the sixth seal judgment, where the Rapture just happened, you see that people are running to the rocks, hills and mountains and know that God's wrath or the wrath of the Lamb is beginning. There is a HUGE misconception that the wrath is only a short time, right before the second coming of Jesus. Shame on anyone who 'bought' that, from Rosenthal and Baxter, etc... It tells me that the wrath begins RIGHT after the Rapture. Then the seventh seal judgment contains the next set of judgments, the trumpet judgments, and doesn't happen right away. I can point out to you the differences in the seal judgments- the first six are NOT GOD'S WRATH, but all of the rest of the judgments to be poured out have angels on assignment, and ARE GOD'S WRATH. But we've covered that before, too. The Bible says we will all suffer tribulation, and that it begins at the house of God. However, the time to come for three and one half years, beginning 75 days after the Rapture, is called GREAT TRIBULATION, THE DAY OF THE LORD, TIME OF JACOB'S TROUBLE, etc. These are ALL the three and one half years' long period just preceding Jesus' second coming. And back to the end of Revelation chapter six. Everyone not only is trying to hide and KNOWS that God's wrath has begun - this is shortly BEFORE great tribulation, but notice that the half hour of silence in Revelation chapter seven verse one and Revelation chapter eight verse one is one and the same. It's the 'calm before all hell on earth breaks loose'! So what is happening in Revelation chapter seven, the 'interim' before the last seal judgment that contains the trumpet judgments, breaks out? You have TWO groups there- one is the 144,000 JEWS who JUST BECAME CHRISTIANS (or 'Messianic') and get the Holy Spirit, get sealed. You also have the other group - these are the dead in Christ and the RAPTURED SAINTS, who JUST GOT RAPTURED! What a reunion. This is the only conclusion that makes sense. Then in Revelation 14, you have two groups IN HEAVEN. The 144,000 sealed Jews were JUST RAPTURED THEMSELVES, and this will be within the same hour as the two witnesses or prophets who were assigned on earth for three and one half years are also ascended to heaven slowly, the same way Jesus ascended and will come at the second coming. THIS- the arrival in heaven of everyone in Revelation fourteen, I believe, will conclude exactly 45 days before Jesus' second coming. That way all can join the final part of the festivities of the wedding feast and prepare to return behind Jesus soon. Notice that the reference to those who make it to Jesus second coming, those who last the EXTRA 30 DAYS- remember 30 days plus 45 days totals that 75 days mentioned in Daniel 12- will be the ELECT JEWISH REMNANT. Everyone else who is GOD'S WILL will likely be in Heaven just before that. Will there be any GENTILES left who will be saved, not beastmarked, during these last of the last days before Jesus' second coming? The jury is still out on that one. Will there still be any JEWS who are not hiding at Petra or Bozrah in Jordan? That's up for debate, too. OK, I hope that was stated with clarity and not confusing. Now to Jesus' second coming. There are some facts here that I perceive. First of all, there are NOT 200 million troops there, unless there is a huge coincidence. The Bible states that they are from the kings of the east and from the whole earth- two different verses in the book of Revelation, same chapter as each other and very close to one another. The only place where 200 million are mentioned are in a completely different event or context. There are demonic critters who torture for five months, and the only ones not tortured are the 144,000 sealed Jews- even the ones who have accepted Jesus outside of this group will likely be included. Then the NEXT trumpet judgment, one of the three 'woes' is yet another demonic release of 200 million meant to KILL ONE THIRD OF EARTH'S INHABITANTS! They have NOTHING to do with the battle of Armageddon, and aren't even at the same time. Now, what about Jesus' second coming? Here is what I think is likely. There is a certain number of 'furlongs' mentioned as the winepress of the wrath of God, which will be filled with blood. There is a ravine that goes from Megiddo through the dead sea and ends just before the entrance to Petra or Bozrah - 176 miles, I believe. Jesus will return as King of Kings with the dead in Christ, Raptured church, martyred great tribulation saints (mostly having been beheaded) and all behind Him, on white horses. Those gathered to - I believe- both ATTACK AND KILL THE HIDING JEWISH REMNANT and TAKE JERUSALEM will turn on Jesus, to 'defeat' Him. Fools! So the "Battle of Armageddon" means him killing them with the sword in his mouth- meaning Bible scriptures!- and there will be SO MUCH BLOOD that it will get blood on the hem of his garment. But Jesus doesn't necessarily have to even touch down all the way to earth's surface. He will after he defeats all of the beastmarked unsaved people and casts the devil, Antichrist and false prophet alive into hell- he will head over to Jerusalem to set up his NEXT REBUILT TEMPLE. You see, there is a coming rebuilt temple, then Jesus will build YET another one after that, and that will be his throne for the next 1000 years. The SECOND COMING, before going to Jerusalem, will be all along that ravine, and killing the people all along the way, and will, I believe, end right at Petra or Bozrah, where the ELECT REMNANT of Jews will be changed into their Adam and Eve- like bodies. Then will begin the 1000 years. (Or maybe he will begin at Petra/Bozrah, and the elect remnant can follow to Megiddo and watch the "Battle"!?) So, back to the Rapture of the church- the imminent one that we are to be constantly watching for and praying that we be accounted worthy to escape in- it comes MOST LIKELY, by my calculations, 75 days before the last three and one half years begins, and NOT before any seven year period. -- written by Cynthia Diane
