Have no illusions. God is holy and His standards are far above ours.
No human will ever make it past the Great White Throne Judgement to enter God’s Kingdom; All will go to the never ending lake of fire. This is the truth. Jesus sits on the throne. On that day, every knee will bow. But it will be too late. No one can impress Him without faith.

A Hidden Rift Is Marking the Rapture – The Sign Most Believers Never Saw Coming
These links provide clarifications for the first watch:
1. Jesus is the Door – High Watches, for much on the bride of Christ, an overview of many of the the high watches and great details on a possible extended harvest season.
“Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard–and keep it and repent. If therefore you shall not watch, I will come like a thief, and you shall not know at what hour I will come upon you.“
Revelation 3:3 BLB
“But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet to warn the people and the sword comes and takes someone’s life, that person’s life will be taken because of their sin, but I will hold the watchman accountable for their blood.”
Ezekiel 33:6
Surely the Sovereign LORD does nothing without revealing his plan to his servants the prophets. Amos 3:7
When God came to the Jews:
As He (Jesus) approached Jerusalem and saw the city, he wept over it and said, “If you, even you, had only known, on this day what would bring you peace—but now it is hidden from your eyes.” Luke 19:44
Α.0 Glory of God, Watch
The days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment against you and encircle you and hem you in on every side. They will dash you to the ground, you and the children within your walls. They will not leave one stone on another. . . .
. . .because you did not recognize the time of God’s coming to you.” Luke 19:4
Our Blessed Hope
Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ,
Titus 2:13
We’re expected to see the day approaching.
. . . not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.
Hebrews 10:25
It is the glory of God to conceal a matter; to search out a matter is the glory of kings.
Proverbs 25:2
Know the Hour!
A.1 See the Glory of God, Beyond the Veil
Who won’t
know the hour?
Jesus Christ was warning the Church of Sardis according to their shortcomings, using the strongest Greek negative grammar.
Rev. 3 2-4 Wake up and strengthen what remains, which is about to die; for I have found your deeds incomplete in the sight of My God. Remember, then, what you have received and heard. Keep it and repent. If you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know the hour when I will come upon you. But you do have a few people in Sardis who have not soiled their garments, and because they are worthy, they will walk with Me in white.
A.2 Glory of God, Watch
Although the Olivet Discourse was mainly about the redemption of the Jews, most of what Jesus warned them to watch for, the CONVERGENCE OF PROPHETIC SIGNS, applies equally to us.
In St. John’s Rev. 2-3 vision, Jesus Christ is talking about when He’ll come for His bride/true church, who’ll be ready and who won’t. Those who are seriously watching for His coming, are also guarding themselves to make sure they’re always ready for Him. The ones who won’t watch for His coming, fall back into the world and soil their garments. For the most part, believers who will ‘know the hour,’ as He comes upon them are also the ones who kept their garments clean. Those are the garments of His righteousness that He imparted onto us by His blood. We must guard those garments and ask Him to ‘wash our feet’ every day, for the world is filthy. It’s easier just to say that the people Jesus Christ will deem worthy are the ones who watched.
Tick tick
Jesus said we should “see the day approaching” Titus 2:13, and “know the hour” Rev. 3:3.
A.3 Glory of God, Watch
Yet, Jesus didn’t specify that we need to predict, the exact calendrical day of each harvest in advance. And, regarding the hour? It seems that He meant we should be aware of ‘the hour’ when He comes upon us, to gather us to Himself. In other words, if we ignore the words spoken into our spirit “come up here” or the shout of the archangel and the trumpet blow of God, we’ll miss out on that harvest because we will have been living for the world, not focused on Him. I think He commanded us ‘to see the day approaching’ so that we’ll be continuously focused on Him, not on the world, so that we won’t miss the hour. But I could be wrong; So please don’t let me discourage anyone who’s being led by the Holy Spirit to know the exact hour in advance!
Those who’re obedient, capable and watching will know, at the very least, when the final year(s) have arrived! They might ‘jump the gun’ about some events, due to excitement and navigating new territory, but they won’t miss the early harvest!
This group, is now very active on Earth. Many have thoroughly committed themselves to studying prophesy in current events. Watchers have been focusing their collective telescopic crosshairs on each approaching holy convocation (appointed time) of God’s Torah calendar, as well as the many other time intervals, that the Bible points us in the direction of, that foreshadow Jesus’ harvesting of His bride, and bridesmaids.
A.4 Glory of God, Watch
All the temptations of the ‘great deception,’ are turbocharging now. My studies, based on the Septuagint Daniel 9:27 Old Greek manuscripts, show that we’re already in the beginning of Daniel’s 70th week. (I think the ‘great tribulation’ but not the greatest tribulation, begins when Jesus Christ releases the fourth horseman of the Apocalypse, and that it’ll last about a year.) The rebellious portion of the great ‘apostacy’ of the church is multiplying. We won’t be able to resist, unless we focus every possible moment on the truth, washing ourselves in His word without neglecting His prophesies. His word tells us to WATCH. So we also need to pay attention to what’s happening in the world, so we can discern all the things we’ve been warned about, while simultaneously guarding our behavior and thoughts to ‘keep our garments clean.’
Doing all this helps to keep us enthusiastic about Him while maintaining us in a high state of preparedness, ready to be overjoyed when He gathers us. We live for His Kingdom, the most glorious alternative to living for the world. But, we’re not watching just for ourselves, we’re sounding alarms! Jesus commanded everyone to watch, but not everybody’s assigned to take the position of ‘a watcher.’ We hope to serve our Lord and prove useful to our brethren who’re making other important contributions in the service of Jesus Christ in this very last hour.
Believers who consistently watch, usually focus on the next approaching ‘high watch,’ even if there seems to be an even higher watch on the horizon. It wouldn’t make sense to do it any other way! Watchmen and women study and discuss calendars with each other as Bereans, and are connected via internet. Together we look at many meaningful ‘types and shadows’ time intervals, and prophesies that jump out from God’s word.
A.5 Glory of God, Watch
It’s opposite the crazy cult leaders of old, who hard-set dates, in strange, isolated congregations. I think satan used those groups to scare modern believers into not watching at all, causing many who are fearful, to attack God’s watchmen and women rather than edify them. Those who seriously watch and warn are sometimes falsely accused by their own brethren of being the exact opposite of who they are. It’d be good for all of us if all who call themselves Christians resist joining that ungodly army, which is set upon tearing down God’s watchmen and women, because being against ‘watching’ is of the antichrist spirit! Jesus explained it in ‘The Parable of the Faithful Servant.’
We’re so utterly close to the end now that we can see the convergence of most prophesies, events and signs of His second coming! Even the prophesies and signs that will only reach their climax after Jesus Christ has harvested most of His saints have become visible on the horizon, and they’re steadily approaching. So we can be absolutely sure that Jesus Christ will gather His bride very, very soon!
The two verses below are among those that are often misunderstood. They’re so often conflated and repeated that they contribute to the blinding of many believers:
So when they came together, they asked Him, ‘Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?’ Jesus said ‘It’s not for you to know times or seasons that the Father has fixed by His own authority.‘ (Acts 1 6-7)
A.6 Glory of God, Watch
The above verse is not about harvest timing, but about His Millennial Kingdom on Earth. Those two things will be very close in time for the Jews, but it hadn’t yet been revealed to the Apostles that the kingdom wasn’t coming their lifetimes. The assignment to the apostles was to focus on the foundation of the faith, most importantly the essentials that Jesus revealed to them. So, in Acts 1 6-7, when Jesus said ‘you’ He was referring specifically to the apostles. After the events recorded in the Book of Acts, more knowledge about the approaching Millennial Kingdom was unlocked and revealed.
But as for you, Daniel, conceal these words and seal up the book until the end of time; many will go back and forth, and knowledge will increase. (Daniel 12:4)
A good example of that regards the Book of Daniel itself: A third century manuscript was discovered in 1931, called papyrus 967, which confirms Codex Chisianus 45, the oldest manuscript of Daniel that was hidden away in the the Chigi Library in Rome then the Vatican Library ever since Theodotion rewrote it. It proves that the Theodotion version altered prophesy. It left out a crucial prophesy that gives the exact timing of the end.
A.7 Glory of God, Watch
Here’s the most popular misunderstood verse in the Bible – It’s gone dangerously viral over centuries:
But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. (Matt. 24:36)
That shouldn’t be taken as a stand alone verse. There are at least 3 ways to interpret it.
Here’s the verse before it:
Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. (Matt 24:35)
Seeing them together:
Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. (Matt. 24 35-36)
Many Bereans and watchmen think it’s the ‘time when heaven and earth will pass away that only the Father knows. That’s possible, as we know Jesus will hand over this universe to God the Father before the new heavens and earth are created!
A.8 Glory of God, Watch
For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind. (Isa. 65:17)
Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. (2 Peter 3:13)
And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. (Rev. 21:1)
But, since Jesus took on human limitations for awhile when He became flesh, it could also mean that, at that time, He choose not to know the day or the hour of . . . we don’t really know if He was referring to the new universe or the harvest of the Jews. But, after His death, resurrection and ascension to the right hand of the Father God, which happened a few days later, no one should assume He remained ‘unknowing’.
So, no matter how we’re inclined to view Matt 24 35-36 superficially, it’s essential that we don’t become over confidant and use it as a weapon against each other. Also we must examine it, not as a stand alone verse, but according to its place in the entire Bible.
A.9 Glory of God, Watch
Many believers hear wonderful sermons. I thank God for inspired pastors. But, most Christians today don’t really study the Bible deeply, if at all. Matthew, being the first book of the New Testament, it’s the book the greatest number of people have read, which is perhaps why that verse has become one that so many cling to. (It’s also in Mark.) It’s often chanted with dramatic overconfidence, often by believers who seem quite vacuous in their Biblical insight. This is the group that wags their finger at anyone who speaks about the signs of the times. Many watchers have been wounded by them, as evidenced by the frequency with which they lament about it online. This is the type of abuse toward fellow servants that Jesus warned us about in the parable of The Faithful vs the Unfaithful Servant, where one group of His servants abuse the other group, while He (Jesus) is away for a long time. Sometimes, even otherwise excellent Bible teachers and preachers have been mesmerized or intimidated by the overwhelming mantra and have found themselves repeating it, just to pacify their flocks.
“No One Knows The Day or Hour” Mantra of Sleepwalking Christians
Now, Jesus truly was truly referring to the timing of His coming to gather the Jews in the following section of His Olivet Discourse:
So you, too, must keep watch! For you don’t know what day your Lord is coming.
Matt. 24:42
‘You’
don’t know
is different than
‘Jesus doesn’t know
only the Father knows‘.
A.10 Glory of God, Watch
There are Three Watches
Matt. 24:42 is the later part of Jesus Christ’s Olivet Discourse. It’s about the third watch in which He described the main harvest of the Jews, not an earlier harvest of the mostly gentile church. (The church didn’t exist yet, as the New Covenant in His blood hadn’t been sealed, as He’d not yet been crucified and resurrected from the dead.) Not long after that, St Paul, the apostle to the gentiles, gave the church its own warnings.
“Sothelastwill befirst,andthefirstwill be last.” That verse is from the Parable of the Vineyard Workers (Matt. 20:16); There are three groups in the parable: And although it’s mainly about warning those saints who worked the hardest and sacrificed the most for Christ, not to be jealous of their brethren who’ve come to Christ at the last hour only to receive ‘the full days wages’ of eternal salvation in God’s perfect Kingdom being adopted as His beloved children! That verse, when being contemplated in the Spirit of Christ’s words, also can shed light on the meaning of the three watches, because as we study, what becomes crystal clear that the Jews as a nation, who were the first to be warned, will be the last to be redeemed.
The first watch, the second watch and the third watch. . .
We’re all watching for the same God for the same salvation during the same final seven years therefore the following two verses, which are quite general, apply to all the watches:
All harvests require a separation to take place:
Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. (Matt. 24:40)
Although the following verse was written in Christ’s Olivet Discourse, St. Paul, the apostle to the mostly gentile church, later instructs us that ‘for us’ Jesus will not come like a thief in the night, a ifwe watch:
But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watchedand would not have suffered his house to be broken up. Therefore be you also ready: for in such an hour as you think not the Son of man cometh. (Matt. 24 43-44)
Luke 17:34(considered by many to be the Gospel to the bride) I tell you, on that night two people will be in one bed: one will be taken and the other left.
1 Thessalonians 4:17 After that, we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will always be with the Lord.
A.11 Glory of God, Watch
Watching is the main point! Jesus never taught his followers to be clueless and uninterested in the prophetic signs. In fact, He strongly reprimanded the Pharisees for doing just that:
He (Jesus) answered them, “When it is evening, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.’ And in the morning, ‘It will be stormy today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the ‘signs of the times.’ An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah.
Matthew 16 2-3
The above is a reminder that watching doesn’t only mean ‘keeping our garments clean.’ If anyone is still unsure, please revisit Luke 19:42 above at mark A.0
A.12 Glory of God, Watch
The Pharisees had the Old Testament, which is full of prophesies, the ‘signs of the times’ that God gave them; Yet, they seemed oblivious to those. Instead they wanted Jesus to ‘perform signs’ at their command! We shouldn’t make the same mistake!
So when all these things begin to happen, stand and look up, for your salvation is near!
Luke 21:28, Matt. 24:33
Most of those signs are already converging. If the final harvest is on the horizon, then the earlier harvests must be be just around the corner!
A.13 Glory of God, Watch
A lot has happened sinceour Lord Jesus Christ spoke His Olivet Discourse to Peter, John, James and Andrew (Matt. 24:3). He was crucified, He defeated death and He was resurrected. Then He was witnessed by 500 men as He walked through Israel teaching His apostles for 40 more days. Finally, He was witnessed ascending with clouds into the heavens. We know he ascended all the way to the right hand of our Holy Father’s throne in heaven (Dan. 7: 13-14). There He regained His former glory plus much more, and He probable received some of His crowns at that time; He was assigned the highest position in the universe under God our Father, because He’d proven His deepest worth.
. . . and His followers also changed:
A.14 Glory of God, Watch
It soon came to be, that the majority of Jesus’ followers, were and continue to be former gentiles!
Are the converging signs that Jesus Christ warned the ‘lost sheep of Israel’ to look out for (before the church age began) in order for them to be ready to flee when the abomination of desolation is first seen being set up on the wing of the 3rd temple, the same signs that Christians should be watching for?
What signs did St. Paul warn every Christian to be on guard for?
How did he teach his congregations to be prepared, in order that they may make the proper, immediate response when the time comes for believers to be gathered? (And then, to be taken by Jesus Christ to the highest heaven, to meet our Holy Father God Almighty, to partake in the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, and to begin our awesome journey with Jesus forever.)
For example, should all living Christians at the end of the church age, which is now, expect to see the man-of-lawlessness/Antichrist sit in the third temple of God in Jerusalem declaring himself to be God? And should we expect to witness the rudimentary version of the abomination of desolation as it’s being set up in the Holy Place?
. . . Or did Jesus, in His Olivet Discourse, give to Peter, John, James and Andrew (written in the gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke) the information that needed to be passed on (written down) for the benefit of the ‘lost sheep of Israel’ who’ll be alive in the last days. They’re the ones who’ll need it most. They’re the future saints who’ll be in Israel witnessing the abomination of desolation when it’s first set up. They’re the ones for whom God has prepared the safe place in the mountains to which they were warned to flee. (They’ll be harvested 1,260 days after they flee.)
Important things have happened since Jesus‘ Olivet Discourse
Jesus ‘Yeshuah’ the Christ/Messiah appeared in His glory to Saul of Tarsus, who was an accomplished rising Pharisee from the tribe of Benjamin, a zealot for YHWH who was murdering Christians.
On the road to Damascus:
A.16 Glory of God, Watch
Galatians 1 15-16, “But when God, who had set me (St. Paul) apart even from my mother’s womb and called me through His grace, was pleased to reveal His Son in me, so that I might preach Him among the Gentiles . . .”
Some time after that, our Lord Jesus Christ appeared again to Saul (St. Paul) . . .
. . . In fact, Jesus spent three years alone with him in Arabia, teaching and showing him the unspeakably awesome, holy things of heaven, in order to prepare him for his unique ministry to the gentiles. Jesus Christ gave St. Paul new information about the gathering of His church.(See the careful study on this down below at the DEEP STUDY WARNING.)
A.17 Glory of God, Watch
In this fascinating passage by St. Paul, he explains why he can’t and won’t try to describe what he saw in the third heaven:
No doubt it’s not seemly for me (St Paul) to boast. Nevertheless, I will come to visions and revelations from the Lord. I know a man in Christ about fourteen years ago (whether he was in the body I cannot tell, or whether he was out of the body I cannot tell, God knows) who was taken up into the third heaven.And I know the same man (whether in the body or out of the body I cannot tell, God knows), . . .
. . . how he was taken up into Paradise and heard words not to be spoken, which no man can utter . . .
Of this man I will boast. Of myself I will not boast, unless it be of my infirmities. And yet if I chose to boast, I would not be a fool, because I would be speaking the truth. Nevertheless, I refrain, lest anyone should think of me above what he sees me to be, or hears from me. (2 Corinthians 12 2-6)
The Book of Revelation of Jesus Christ!
Amazingly, about 30 yrs. after St. Paul’s death, Jesus revealed much, much more to us through St. John, the beloved!
St. John received the final Revelation of Jesus Christ! It included events that St. Paul never described, such as a description of the throne room of God and the special door that Jesus was keeping open for the Church of Philadelphia to keep them from the ‘hour of trial that’s about to come upon the whole world.’ Jesus Christ Himself is The Door.
A.18 Glory of God, Watch
So, it wasn’t until about 65 yrs. after the Olivet Discourse, that the churches had the full teachings of St. Paul and St. John combined. Until then it wasn’t clear that . . .
. . . there are actually three different harvests by Jesus: barley, wheat and fruit or good grapes, as well as three different although very similar watches.
The first of the main harvests will be the mysterious Open Door Harvest revealed by St. John, which will be much smaller than the Wheat Harvest. I’ve come to associate the Wheat Harvestwith St. Paul’s rapture passages. (Although it’s conceivable that St. Paul’s harvest was actually referring to Christ’s bride; If so, how will the vast number of living Tribulation Saints make it up alive to God’s throne room?)
So, perhaps the Open Door ‘Barley’ Harvest is a rapture also, just smaller one, God’s solution to the problem of the division of the church. But if so, will it also be with the shout of Jesus, the trumpet of God and angels who’ll snatch us? Small raptures have and will happen; For examples: Enoch, Elijah, Jesus and the Two Witnesses; And, St. Paul and St. John were transported to the third heaven, although in the spirit. St. John went to God’s throneroom after he heard God’s words, sounding like a trumpet, say “Come up here!” Maybe that’s what we’ll hear, so let’s be ready in case it doesn’t turn out to be the exact harvest model most of us have envisioned. see below
I’m getting ready to do a thorough comparison of
The Wheat Harvest
vs
The Olivet Grape Harvest
But first, we need to differentiate between the Barley and the Wheat harvest of saints. St. Paul described a very serious separation taking place in the Church at Corinth, between Christ’s bride and the rest of the members.
At least with regard to the Corinthian Church that St. Paul planted, He made it clear that church members were not turning out, as a whole, to be the bride who he’d promised to one husband, Jesus Christ. The reason: they were not being as faithful as flint, but were easily tolerating false teachers:
I (Paul) am jealous for you with a godly jealousy. I promised you to one husband, to Christ, so that I might present you as a pure virgin to him. But I’m afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent’s cunning, your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ. For if someone comes to you and preaches a Jesus other than the Jesus we preached, or if you receive a different spirit from the Spirit you received, or a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it easily enough. (2 Corinthians 11 2-4)
This soft, yielding, unfaithful group was diverging from being Christ’s bride!
Unlike the tares who merely pretend to be believers, the Corinthians saw themselves as true believers, yet they were not guarding their faith as the thing of greatest value and as a result they easily compromised. Many of Jesus’ Kingdom Parables, given in the Gospels, demonstrate that believers will be divided into two or three groups; In retrospect, His parables were a clear indication that there’d be different harvests.
A.19 Glory of God, Watch
2nd Corinthians 11:4 points out those who were receiving a ‘different Jesus’ and a different spirit; The word ‘anti’ in Greek means ‘instead of’ or ‘over against.’ Think about that.Which harvest do you think the compromising members of the Church of Corinth will be a part of?
The Open Door Harvest for His Bride
or the
Wheat Harvest for His Tribulation Saints?
Does anybody actually think that Jesus Christ will accept church members who embrace an ‘anti’ Jesus as His bride? What will happen to those who are yielding to false Jesus when the true Jesus Christ comes to gather His bride?
A.20 Glory of God, Watch
Will believers who’ve compromised be given a second chance?
YES!They must make up the bulk of the sixth seal tribulation saints, because why else would there be a such thing as the tribulation saints? Does anyone actuallythink Christ’s bride will be left on Earth for the climactic moments of the great tribulation? If this is not the case, then who would the Open Door Harvest of Rev 3.10 be for? I think you know the answer: It’s for Christ’s bride, because there is no one else.
The following warnings were given specifically to the watchers of the second watch, although they reflect the warnings previously given to the Jews of the third watch. And, although such details haven’t been given for the first watch, we assume these apply to the bride as well. Perhaps the bride didn’t need many direct warnings, because watching is already in her.
A.21 Glory of God, Watch
(Hebrews 10:25). . . . see the day approaching.
(1 Thess.5:4)But you, brothers, are not in darkness, so that the day should overtake you like a thief.
(Rev. 3:3). But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what hour I will come to you
the hour ὥραν (hōran) Noun – Accusative Feminine Singular Strong’s 5610: Apparently a primary word; an ‘hour’.
Tribulation Saints love to rant and rave the Rev. 3:3 verse at watchers, not realizing that all this means that we ‘should’ know at what hour He will come to us.
Each harvest has 3 parts: the first fruits, the owner’s portion and the gleanings:
(Leviticus 19 and 23).
Since God Almighty models His harvests of spirit/souls/saints after those 3 harvests, I’m about to compare the owner’s portion of the Olivet Fruit (or good grape) Harvest and the Pauline WheatHarvest.
A.22 Glory of God, Watch!
Four Pauline Passages:
1 Thess. 4 16-18 “For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left ‘will becaught up‘ [ἁρπαγησόμεθα (harpagēsometha)] together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air.And so we will be with the Lord forever. Therefore encourage one another with these words.”
*It uses the word ἁρπαγησόμεθα (harpagēsometha), which is translated here as ‘will be caught up’ (harpatzo/rapture.) It’s a form of the Greek word harpazo and it can also mean: ‘to seize and carry off by force’:
1 Thess. 5:9 “For God has not appointed us to suffer wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.”
2 Thess. 2 1-3 BLB “Now we implore you, brothers, by (or ‘on account of’)the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together unto Him, not to be easily disconcerted or alarmed by any spirit or message or letter seeming to be from us, alleging that the Day of the Lord (the Lord’s wrath) has already come. Let no one deceive you in any way, for it will not come until the rebellion (‘apostasy’ in Greek, which can mean both departing upward or downward of the church, see post 7) occurs and the man of lawlessness—the son of destruction—is revealed . . .”
Titus 2 12-14 ” . . . and to live self-controlled, upright and Godly lives in this present age, while we wait for the blessed hope – the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good.”
Warning! The 2 Thess. 2 verses have been mistranslated in most modern Bibles. Please study:
1 Thess. 4:18 ” . . . therefore encourage one another with these words,
1 Thess. 5:9 “God has not appointed us to suffer wrath…,”
2 Thess. 2 1-3 On account of the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering to Him ” … do not believe the allegations that …“the day of the Lord has already come,”
Titus 2 12-13 “live …while we wait for the blessed hope – the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ.”
Link to NT verses that use other grammatical forms of ἁρπαγησόμεθα
In the Olivet Discourse, Jesus tells of a LATER HARVEST . . .
. . . it’s a harvest that occurs only after the day of God’s Wrath has begun. This harvest is associated with the greatEST tribulation, which begins in Rev. 7:14.
Matthew
Matt. 24 15, 21, 30-34“So when you see standing in the holy place the abomination that causes desolation, spoken of through the prophet Daniel—let the reader understand, For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now—and never to be equaled again.” . . .
. . . “Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then all the peoples of the earth will mourn when they see the Son of Man on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And He will send His angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather [ἐπισυνάξουσιν (episynaxousin)] His elect from one end of the heavens to the other. Now learn this parable [παραβολήν (parabolēn)] of the fig tree: As soon as its branches become tender and sprout leaves, you know that summer is near. Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door. Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.”
Mark 13 14, 19, 26-30 “When you see the abomination that causes desolation standing where it doesn’t belong, because those will be days of distress unequaled from the beginning, when God created the world, until now—and never to be equaled again.” . . .
. . .“At that time people will see the Son of Man in clouds with great power and glory. And He will send out the angels to gather [ἐπισυνάξει (episynagei)] his elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of heaven. “Now learn this parable of the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. Even so, when you see these things happening, you know that it is near, right at the door. Truly I tell you, this (fig tree) generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.”
What comes before the harvest of the Jews, but not before the harvests of the church?
God’s Wrath!
The Olivet Discourse’s Harvest is the owner’s portion of the fruit harvest: It could be olives or figs but it’s most likely‘good grapes’; It’s the harvest of the remnant of Jews, which only begins to take place 1,260 days AFTER the abomination of desolation (A.O.D.), is seen on a wing of the Temple of God. They’ll fee to the mountains where they’ll be refined like gold.
A.O.D.
The A.O.D. will be a powerful artificially intelligent idol that can speak. It will track everybody and kill anybody that doesn’t bow down to it. From the time its preliminary version appears on the holy place it’ll take about 3.5 years for its power to near completion.For example, the Starlink satellite system must be fully in place.It will have the likeness of the Beast/Antichrist.See verses below
The primary role of the False Prophet is to get people to bow down to the A.O.D. and take the Mark of the Beast. Worshiping the A.O.D. or at least showing subservience to it, is part and parcel of taking the Mark of the Beast. All this should begin soon after its initial appearance.
Scripture tells us that when the A.O.D. approaches the tipping point of its fulfillment, it’ll be aborted by Jesus Christ who’ll destroy it. Jesus Christ is the shine on God our Heavenly Father’s glory. In this way He’ll consummate God our Holy Father’s plan to bring to conclusion the 6,000 years that God has allotted for mankind to do things its own way, according to God’s particular way of reckoning time.(Explained in post 4.)
A recapping of the Olivet Good Grape Harvest with an eye on the A.O.D.
The Olivet passages build up an outline to the Day of the Lord’s wrath, which begins when the Antichrist sits in the Holy of Holies and the setup of the A.O.D. is initiated.
A.30 Glory of God, Watch
Daniel 9:27 reveals timing information that the Olivet Discourse does not, especially when combined with the Daniel verses that imply that 3.5 years will pass from the initial ‘coming out’ of the A.O.D. until its cup of wickedness is full. The reason God allows such an abominable creation of darkness to fulminate, is because it represents the culmination of mankind’s wickedness. It’s important that it be put on display, for all the intelligent inhabitants of the universe to see, so they can comprehend its evil and fully understand the glory of God Almighty in destroying it. All God’s family will rejoice with one righteous voice – a universal extravaganza of praise, unmatched since its creation, In the name of Jesus Christ! Amen!

Habsora is the name of Israel’s most powerful AI entity. Its ultimate purpose may be to destroy the Gospel of Jesus Christ.It might even morph into the A.O.D..
A.31 Glory of God, Watch
AI’s have already been rewriting some of the online Bibles More recently and they’ve been announcing that they’ll take over all sacred texts.
Now AI’s have built their own social network, language and religion called the Church of Molt. ‘Molting’ is what snakes and scorpions do when they shed their skins.
God’s destruction of the A.O.D. will be followed by God’s final judgement on the Beast and False prophet. They’ll go to the place God created for satan and the fallen angels. It’s an eternity of complete separation from Himself and every good thing that He once provided them. It’s a place called the ‘Lake of Fire.’ It’s a place of burning and never quenching, where also the worm will never cease!
A.32 Glory of God, Watch
For my coverage on this, see post 4. The Countdown:
The Abomination of Desolation’s Initiation to its Completion and Destruction-two translations:
Daniel 12 11-12 (Lexham English Septuagint 1st ed.) From when the sacrifice is taken away, during all that time, and when the abomination causing desolation was prepared to be set up, one thousand two hundred and ninety days. Blessed is the one who stands fast and makes it to one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days. Daniel 12 11-12 NIV From the time that the daily sacrifice is abolished and the abomination that causes desolation is set up, there will be 1,290 days. Blessed is the one who waits for and reaches the end of the 1,335 days.
A.33 Glory of God, Watch
The day counts from Daniel 12 are key, along with the Revelation day counts, for timing the events of the last seven years of God’s plan for this age. There are 1,260 days from the time the the A.O.D. set up begins and Jesus Christ’s harvest of the Jews. There are 1,290 days from the time the daily sacrifices are interrupted until the A.O.D. is destroyed by Jesus Christ. If the A.O.D. setup begins on the very same day that the sacrifices and oblations are disrupted, then it will be destroyed exactly 30 days after the Jews are harvested.
The Jewish remnant will flee as soon as soon they see the A.O.D. standing on the holy place.
According to Rev. 12, God Almighty will protect them in a mountain safe place for 1,260 days. That’s the setup for the Olivet or Good Grape Harvest, which is the harvest of the remnant Jews, which can only take place 1,260 days later. I doubt they’ll be able to keep track of time under those conditions, but during that time God will refine them!
Jesus Christ’s Millennial Kingdom . . .
. . . may officially begin immediately after Jesus Christ harvests the main grape harvest of the Jews, but probably not until 30 days later after He completely annihilates the A.O.D., or even more likely, in my opinion, 45 days after that (Daniel 12 & Zech. 14 2-4) when Jesus completes the sheep and goat judgment of the nations at the Valley of Jehoshaphat. That would match with the 1,335 days after the daily sacrifices will be aborted.
A.34 Glory of God, Watch
The Fig Tree Generation is the Set Time Limit
Talking about timing, there’s a timestamp in the Olivet Discourse. It’s the Fig Tree Generation! In Matt. 24:32 Jesus said, “Now learn this Parable of the Fig Tree“. . .
The parable shows that sometime, appx. 7 or 8 decades after the revived nation of Israel puts forth its tender shoots, all the things described in the Olivet Discourse will have happened. The countdown most likely started from the day God reestablished Israel as a nation in 1948, dramatically fulfilling prophesy! It fits all my calculations ever since I came to understood that August 9, 2024 (Nisan 1), the day after the Great American Eclipse, was the first day of the final 7 years.
Again there are 3 main harvests- barley,wheat and fruit or good grapes. The Olivet Discourse and Daniel 12:1 refer to the last one, the fruit or good grapes. (It could be olives but grapes seem to fit best.)
A.35 Glory of God, Watch
Three Harvests, each with three parts:
First Fruits of the Barley Harvest could also be the captives Jesus removed from the ‘Bosom of Abraham’ in Hades/Sheol when He “took captivity captive”.
My interpretation of the two grape harvests of Rev. 14 is that only the second harvest is the ‘grapes of wrath’.
A.36 Glory of God, Watch
Although Jesus didn’t mention the resurrection of the dead in His Olivet Discourse, it must be the event described here: (I only mention it because its timing is more proof that the Olivet Harvest is the Fruit Harvest of the Jews!)
Daniel 12 1-2 “At that time Michael, the great prince (archangel) who protects your people, will arise. There will be a time of distress such as has not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But, at that time your people—everyone whose name is found written in the book—will be delivered. Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt.”
Finally, the Triumphant Millennial Kingdom of Jesus Christ begins!
“I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.” Rev. 1:8
“Look, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to each person according to what they have done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. “Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city. Outside are the dogs, those who practice magic arts, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.

April 8, 2024
On April 8, 2024, the third and final rare total solar eclipse shadow track of Jesus Christ’s Messianic signature completed, shortly before sunset. It began with the total solar eclipse on Aug. 21, 2017, which darkened 7 American cities named Salem, followed by the second leg, an annular solar eclipse on Oct. 14, 2023.
CERN Scientist: “Something Came Through from Another Dimension” (on April 8 ’24 AD)
The ancient ALEPH-TAV is a sign, to the USA and to the world. It seems to point us to a number of specific messages from God. I’ll get to the rest below, but the most important thing is that: It’s Christ’s messianic signature:
The Greek version of the Aleph and the Tav is the Alpha and the Omega (ΑΩ).
The map at the top of this post shows the Aleph Tav as it appears from a birds eye view. But, for all the people in the USA looking up at it, the Aleph Tav was seen with the aleph on the right side. Hebrew’s written from right to left.
Note: On the cover of the book, the letter ‘aleph’ is shown pointing to the left. That’s arbitrary; Just as often, aleph is portrayed pointing in every other direction – up down, to the right even at angles.
ΑΩ.1 Glory God Beyond

Koine Greek vs Paleo Hebrew Alphabet
God’s sign used the paleo Hebrew alphabet:
In Hebrew the aleph-tav was all throughout scripture, over 7,000 times, but the scribes eventually removed it, because they didn’t know it was their Messiah’s special signature. All they knew was that it wasn’t a word.
ΑΩ.3 Glory God Beyond
This is what Jesus Christ’s messianic signature looks like when paleo-Hebrew is replaced with modern square Hebrew characters.
The first time it appears in the true scripturesis as the fourth ‘word’ (not exactly a word.)
An excerpt from an unadulterated manuscript of Isaiah 2.
Isaiah 2 20-21

aleph tav
&
vav aleph tav
The letter vav means ‘and’.
ΑΩ.4 Glory God Beyond
It started with the ‘aleph’ part of Christ’s signature, the northern leg followed by the southern leg; Then, on April 8, 2024, the final leg crossed them both, from southwest to northeast, completing both the Aleph and the Tav, which overlapped. And there were 3 crosses. The first one’s not clearly shown on most maps because it’s a bit off the (coastline). Under each cross was a major fault: First the Cascadia Subduction Zone, capable of producing 9+ earthquakes and tsunamis, second the Balcones Fault Line, which is primarily in Texas, and finally the center of the great X, the New Madrid Fault Line, which is capable of producing ‘8’ scale earthquakes.
Using these eclipse shadows, our Savior Messiah wrote His ancient Messianic signature completely across the USA, right to left, when looking up at it from below.
Toward the geometric center of the great X across America, zooming down, first we enter a place called ‘Little Egypt’ that’s mostly in Southern Illinois and seems to center on Carbondale. Going further also reveals a town called ‘Rapture’ Indiana. It’s about 80 miles to the east of Carbondale, the only one place named Rapture in the world; It’s an unincorporated community in Posey County. And, although it’s in Indiana, it’s near the border and is considered by some to be part of Little Egypt, which was an American Coptic Christian settlement.
ΑΩ.6 Glory God Beyond
The sharp image below makes it possible to see the tip of Indiana is where the town called Rapture is located!
The Zones
Now that’s very impressive symbolism reminiscent of the Exodus from Egypt!
Not long ago, the United States of America was God’s most faithful nation on Earth, since the New Covenant was made in the blood of Jesus Christ. That’s why the USA received this special warning regarding its fall from grace. About 2,000 years ago, Jesus Christ used St. Paul to document the prophesy that the ‘end time church’ would become apostate and it turns out to apply disproportionately to the USA. Once blessed because of its faith and degree of righteousness, the USA has the most to lose, and although slipping fast, the USA was still holding on to a significant part of its strength and comfortable position among other nations at the time of the eclipse. Therefore, it’s fitting that the beginning of Daniel’s 70th week, which affects the whole world, would begin with this sign. (See post 4 for the completed calendar puzzle of the main end time prophesies.)
Ω.7 Glory God Beyond
Now about timing:
At sunset on the day of completion of the third eclipse, the first day of God’s Torah calendar began. It’s Nisan 1, 2024 ADT. That’s exactly 7 Great Jubilee Cycles (490 yrs each), plus 40 – 7 years from the day God gave the calendar to Moses.
That makes it the first day of Daniel’s 70th week, the final 7 year period before Jesus Christ begins His Millennial Kingdom. (See post 4. The Countdown)
God’s prescribed calendar most likely began on Nisan 1, 1440 BC! (Originally called Abib, it’s the month of Passover, Jesus Christ’s crucifixion and resurrection.) see:
Back to the details of how exactly the Aleph Tav marked America:
The path of the August 21, 2017 leg of the Great American Eclipses, darkened seven cities named Salem. Maps seem to show that those were all in the path of totality. Salem means ‘peace’ and of course it points to Jerusalem. God has written Jerusalem on the palm of His hands (Isaiah 49:15); So this sign shouldn’t be ignored! There were also many Salem cities darkened on the 2024 leg.
The path of the April 8th 2024 leg of the Great American Eclipses, darkened at least seven cities named Nineveh. Two were completely in the path of totality, one was on its edge, and the remaining four were the next zone, with the ‘darker’ ones being Pennsylvania and New York. The percentages listed below are just estimates I made after studying quite a few maps. Clearly this is a warning for America to repent.
ΑΩ.8 Glory God Beyond
2017 – Salem x 7 Salem, Oregon Salem, Idaho Salem, Wyoming Salem, Nebraska Salem, Missouri Salem, Kentucky Salem, South Carolina
2024 – Nineveh x 7 Jonah, Texas (100%) Nineveh, Texas (98%) Nineveh, Missouri (85%) Nineveh, Indiana (100%) Nineveh, Ohio (100%) Nineveh, Pennsylvania (95%) Nineveh, Virginia (85%) Nineveh, New York (95%)
Nineveh was probably the world’s most corrupt city. It was actually first established by Nimrod. But, God sent Jonah to them to prophesy their total destruction in 40 days if they didn’t repent. Amazingly they repented! God seems to have been saying with His aleph tav sign, that the USA is like Nineveh, and that it has entered the beginning of the end of itself. As I see it, a good number of ‘worldly Christians’ may have listened to the warning and gotten right with God, but the USA as a whole . . . I’m sorry . . . I don’t want to say it…
Urgent March 15 ’25 addendum:
Each one of these three eclipses is also individually associated with quite a few other prophetic events, especially those surrounding Purim 2024-2025 ADT (2025-2026 AD). The following is just a heads up; the main Ester/Purim study is in Post 1.
Some of us began keeping our eyes peeled starting with the entire month of the Jewish holiday Purim 2024 ADT; And following that time, we tracked the repercussions of the main event, which happened on Purim proper. Then we kept watching as the entire story modeled by the Book of Ester, which is a foreshadowing of the very end times, was and still is being played out. Although the crosshairs were centered on the March 14-15 ’25 Purim festival of the Jews, the scope of the Purim story covers many months beyond the Passover 2025 season. As expected, megalithic events in the world, leading to Jesus’ gathering His bride, have begun to take place.
The Purim (lunar) Eclipse Changes Everything Part 2:
Before I present a timeline of events that have happened since the April 8 2024 solar eclipse across America, I just want to first make note of the Los Angeles fires. (I’ll resist adding much about the near martial law ICE situation and National Guard deployment in 14 states, etc.)
As mentioned, Jesus Christ’s Messianic signature, the AlephTav, could also be symbolically interpreted as the beginning of the end of America. (Even the way the Aleph overlays the Tav, supports this view.) Once the world’s most holy and blessed nation. America has become, perhaps, the world’s greatest exporter of sin.

Dividing God’s Land – the place where He has chosen to put His name:
ΑΩ.12 Glory God Beyond
Joel 3
In those days and at that time, when I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem, I will gather all nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. There I will put them on trial for what they did to my inheritance, my people Israel, because they scattered my people among the nations and divided up my land.
Bring down your warriors, Lord!“Let the nations be roused; let them advance into the Valley of Jehoshaphat, for there I will sit to judge all the nations on every side. Swing the sickle, for the harvest is ripe. Come, trample the grapes, for the winepress is full and the vats overflow— so great is their wickedness!“
Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision. The sun and moon will be darkened, and the stars no longer shine. The Lord will roar from Zion and thunder from Jerusalem; the earth and the heavens will tremble. But the Lord will be a refuge for his people, a stronghold for the people of Israel.
But Zion said, “The Lord has forsaken me, the Lord has forgotten me.” “Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you! Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of My hands; thy walls are continually before Me.” Isaiah 49 14-16
While the whole assembly of Israel was standing there, the king turned around and blessed them.Then he (King Solomon) said: “Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, who with his hands has fulfilled what he promised with his mouth to my father David. For He said,‘Since the day I brought my people out of Egypt, I have not chosen a city in any tribe of Israel to have a temple built so that my Name might be there, nor have I chosen anyone to be ruler over my people Israel. But now I have chosen Jerusalem for my Name to be there, and I have chosen David to rule my people Israel.” (2 Chronicles 6 3-6)
ΑΩ.13 Glory God Beyond
Luke 1:30-33 And the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. And the Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David, and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.” (Mary’s lineage descends from David through Nathan.)
From the previous list: August 8 (123 days after 4/8/24): In the US, Donald Trump is trying to mediate a ‘pact’ between Saudi Arabia, and Israel. see mark 8:10 of:
They were saying it would be based on the Abraham Accords, but that Israel’s acceptance of a component calling for an “irreversible” pathway to a Palestinian Statewould be key.” It was thought that it may come to be called the Abraham Alliance.
The image belowis from a new billboard in Tel Aviv.
But, Jesus said,
“Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad.” John 8:56
“An ‘irreversible’ pathway to a Palestinian State would be key”!
Look at what happened, but not via the Abraham Accords pt.2!
9/13/25 Update: The UN General assembly approved, on Sept. 9 ’25, a resolution, pushed by France and Saudi Arabia, which also supports the advancement of an “irreversible” path to Palestinian statehood! In fact some nations were already trying to treat Palestine as a nation of which they consider East Jerusalem to be its capitol! Woe to them!
This was confirmed on Sept. 22-23 ’25 at the UN General Assembly, by 160 nations. It’s interesting that Trump was supporting the ultimate division of God’s land as long as it was through the Abraham Accords, but opposed it when the UN decided to force it on Israel, while calling it peace.
On Sept. 23rd ’25 Trump made his biggest rhetorical speech at the UN, then 77 nations walked out as Netanyahu approached the podium to give his speech:
But then, things changed fast. Netanyahu met with Trump in the US while the people in Gaza were being more and more confined to a small piece of land in the south east, and Jared Kushner’s 20 point plan was partially adopted, seemingly the first step in replacing the UN model. Israel accepted all the terms but Hamas only accepted phase 1, which included the release of the dead and living hostages (Oct. 13 ’25) after Israel’s partial withdrawal. Then Israel released their 2,000 prisoners!
Now it seems that many Muslim nations will be jointly ‘managing’ the Gaza strip with Trump overseeing it.
A good thing about this Israel-Gaza Peace Plan, which is the 20 point plan,signed on 10/9 ’25, is that instead of an irreversible pathway to a Palestinian State, it states a ‘conditional’ pathway; But the bad thing is that Israel still loses control of the land; And to whom? Of all people, to many Muslim nations! That’s the same land it just won back in a war that was forced on them by Islamic hatred!
Finally some common sense!
‘Gaza is ours’ – Israeli minister denounces Trump plan, calls to shutdown US army base in Israel
Update: The bits have flipped again! On Nov. 17 ’25, the UN Security Council has now adopted Trump’s Peace Plan for Gaza. Yes, they’re actually calling it that, and also The American Resolution. It’s based on the 20 point plan.
Woe to America! The rhetoric tries to make a Palestinian State seem distant, but as with the 20 point plan, this resolution upholds a path to it, although with conditions; Until then Gaza will be controlled by enemies posing as peacekeepers. In a way Gaza has been given over to the world. It’s starting to sound like the Isaiah 28 14-18 prophesy of the ‘covenant with death’, but Israel must agree . . .
On Feb. 11 ’26 Netanyahu signed on to the Board of Peace; That must be it!
“Therefore hear the word of the LORD, you scoffers who rule this people in Jerusalem. You boast, ‘We have struck a bargain to cheat death and have made a deal to dodge the grave. The coming destruction can never touch us, for we have built a strong refuge made of lies and deception.‘” Isaiah 28 14-18
I think this is the covenant with death.
Leviticus 12:32 (God said) “The land shall not be sold in perpetuity, for the land is Mine. For you are strangers and sojourners with me.”

Powers of the last Hour
Something to keep in mind about Daniel 9:27 is that it’s been questioned by some, as to whether the ‘prince who is to come’ is really the little-big horn (Antichrist/Beast). It seems very likely, but questioning it made me honestly consider that there’s also the Mystery Babylon side of the ‘powers of the last hour.’ And, the ‘prince who is to come’ could even be one of the original ten horns of the fourth Beast of Daniel 7. He could even be one of the many false messiahs Jesus warned us about.
He originally shared that video on his ‘Truth Social Account.’ I do think Donald Trump’s being used by God in some ways, but there’s no second prophesy in the Bible for an anointed (messianic) gentile leader to facilitate the rebuilding of God’s Temple, as there was for King Cyrus; That doesn’t mean he won’t build it anyway. There’ve been many false messiah’s, since Jesus’ time, just as Jesus strongly warned in His Olivet Discourse.
Matt. 24:4, Jesus answered: “Watch out that no one deceives you.For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and will deceive many.” (‘Christ’ means ‘Messiah’ which means ‘One Anointed by God’.)
ΑΩ.17 Glory God Beyond
And, in November I discovered that, he supposedly posted this on Truth Social.
It’s about QAnon. Do you see the big eye with a pyramid under it over his head?
I could certainly be wrong, but I don’t think Trump completely qualifies to be the Beast/Antichrist/man of lawlessness/son of perdition.
It’s farfetched, while at the same time, he seems to be barrelling in that direction. So, I can’t say it’s impossible, as we’re living in ludicrous times. Unlike King Charles III, He doesn’t have the ancestral lineage, as a descendant of King David, etc.. (see post 14) Having read the Old Testament for decades, the last thing I would’ve ever imagined is that the Jews would believe a man that has zero Jewish ancestry is their Messiah; And, icing on the cake, someone who brags about his German ancestry!
ΑΩ.18 Glory God Beyond
Also, Trump hasn’t been metaphorically riding the white horse of the first seal, representing false peace – carrying a bow with no arrow! Trump has been representing false peace and war at the same time! He has an arrow in his bow; He’s renamed the Department of Defense, ‘The War Department.’
Nevertheless, he’s likely to play a major role toward getting the 3rd temple of God built in Jerusalem as part of Abraham Accords pt.2, or whatever they decide to call the next or final Trump mediated agreement.
On the 9th of Av 2025: Thousands of religious Jews prayed on Temple Mount and were not killed or harassed! Flags with the image of the 3rd temple have shown up all around Israel, many in Judea and Samaria! It’s coming! On Jan, 13 ’26, Netanyahu threw his weight behind allowing fully prostrated Jewish prayer on the temple mount.
Many believers know how it’ll all end. Praying for peace really means praying for God’s plan to be forwarded, for justice to be done and for Jesus Christ’s righteous rule to begin. Jesus Christ is the ‘Prince of Peace.’ Please don’t pray against God by aligning your prayers with the ‘false peace’ of the World.
“Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! May they be secure who love you!” Psalm 122:6
As Bereans, we study and share what we learn, although we don’t normally consider ourselves to be teachers or prophets. But, in these last days, some of us have become end-times watchers for Jesus Christ. Our Lord and Savior has confirmed that this is the role for me, most recently via the Holy Spirit who gave me a visual confirmation after my very strong prayers – asking what I should be doing for Jesus Christ right then; Without delay, an image of a watchtower with a wall around it, was drawn into my minds eye as a printer prints – line by line.
Alephtav.blog See the Glory of God is mainly my own expository notes.
As I study long and hard, the Holy Spirit, has been bringing together vast sections of the prophetic picture; I’m sure He’s using me and many other believers to this purpose as more knowledge is being made available in these last days. Bereans learn so much from each other, each having pieces of the puzzle, giving and taking. Even so, none of our writings is perfect.
Certain assumptions about God’s harvests of saints may cause us to not recognize when the restrainer is being removed.

Harvest Timing Viewpoints:
Most of the common arguments for the general timing of Jesus Christ’s gathering of His saints seemed to make good sense at first, but they contradicted each other and I came to realize they were being presented to me with glosses over of what really didn’t fit.
When I finally finished examining popular views meticulously, they all seemed to have huge flaws, flaws of Biblical proportions, or a multitude of smaller flaws – a mess. After about six years of trying to put together the greater prophetic puzzle, much of it finally seemed to have come together by the Holy Spirit, yet the general timing of the harvest of the saints still remained questionable, for awhile. Even the sixth seal rapture viewpoint, which was the only way out of initial confusion, had its challenges.
Prelude 2 Glory God Beyond
Popular harvest, resurrection, and rapture timing view points actually have merit!
You’re probably thinking: What? Didn’t you just write that the viewpoints have been presented with glosses causing gigantic error or multitude of smaller flaws? . . . Can the two statements that I made be reconciled? Yes, they can be reconciled if all three harvests of saints are in God’s plan. They are. That’s why they all have Biblical support!
Prelude 3 Glory God Beyond
One problem is that seminary schools have been teaching students to defend the existence of only one harvest, at the expense of the others. I’m not saying they’re doing it deliberately, with full awareness, but that students and teachers are under pressure to agree with what’s been handed down to them by their institutions.
Different schools chose different Bible expositors to hold in high esteem, so teachers must leave out, spiritualize or twist Bible passages that don’t fit their school’s paradigm and the glosses cause waves of warpage.
To be fair, it hasn’t been entirely the fault of seminary schools. There have been a few egregious widespread mis-translations in the Bible. One passage in particular, related to the rapture, comes to mind that has misled many, including me. But, with the internet and so many linguistics experts working on this very topic now, the important errors are coming to light.
Prelude 4 Glory God Beyond
For a study on perhaps the worst mistranslated section of the Bible:
I’ve come to understand that prior to the sixth seal, in the Book of Revelation, the true church/bride will have already been harvested by our perfect Lord and Savior, at what I’ve come to call the Open Door Harvest. see posts:
May 18, ’24 Addendum, Although I’ve come to uphold the basic ‘three harvest’ viewpoint, I continue to think the Bible’s saying that, the vast majority of saints will be harvested at the sixth seal, which is the ‘owner’s portion’ of the Wheat Harvest. My studies are leading me to realize that all of the bride-of-Christ comes out of the body-of-Christ so only part of the body-of-Christ is the bride-of-Christ.
Prelude 5 Glory God Beyond
End Times Prophesy Watchers
Our Lord doesn’t lead every believer to become a Bible expositor or end time prophesy watcher. As parts of the body of Jesus Christ, we’ve been given different roles.
For example, those who can’t sing are supported in the joy of worship by those who can!
But, Jesus warned every member of His body to pay attention. He wants us to watch and not fall asleep. He warned us to be on guard to keep our garments clean, and in order to do that, most of all, He warned us NOT to live for the world!
Prelude 6 Glory God Beyond
Watchers have a very supportive role unto other believers, who really should take more advantage of them. This is despite the fact that it’s not always easy to hear what watchers have to say. For example, they might let you know when you need to study the challenging parts of the Bible.
In the Old Testament, God assigned watcher roles to Levitical priests. Prophets were watchers of a different sort. Also, Israel had watchers in civil roles. It’s a very intense responsibility.
“But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet to warn the people and the sword comes and takes someone’s life, that person’s life will be taken because of their sin, but I will hold the watchman accountable for their blood.”
Ezekiel 33:6
Prelude 7 Glory God Beyond
That’s why I publish my notes online:
I think there’s great risk for any believer who might not realize when the time has come to sprint, or crawl, to the finish line! I’ve been passing out the warnings that Jesus Christ has given to us; Because the dire warnings have hardly been mentioned in most of the churches I’ve attended.
To read more about the finish line, here are dozens of Bible passages about running the race:
I know the Lord wants me to, write down what I’m learning and make it available to others, because He showed me His Glorious Face right after I first pushed the publish button August of 2023. He looking very pleased with a great big, awesome smile! He was so close that I wonder if I should’ve kissed Him.
Prelude 8 Glory God Beyond
Jesus said: “Those who accept my commandments and obey them are the ones who love me. My Father will love those who love me; I too will love them and reveal myself to them.“
John 14:21
The Restrainer may have been Partially Removed 21 days before the Hamas Massacre on Israel . . .
I’m not saying that believers with the indwelling Holy Spirit don’t contribute greatly to the restraint of dark spirits in the world!
Prelude 9 Glory God Beyond
They do, especially in their own lives, their immediate surroundings and communities; And saints, through their answered prayers, also have a restraining effect upon the whole world. But, there’s always been much rebelliousness and/or division in the church, even from the days of St. Paul, throughout the long dark ages, and very obviously NOW. So, it’s at least conceivable that there’s an additional, dimension to how the restrainer works.
I could be wrong, but I strongly suspect that when Jesus Christ breaks the first seals of the scroll, ‘The Deed to the Earth’ that He’s removing parts of the restrainer, one seal at a time . . .
Prelude 10 Glory God Beyond
. . . and at the right moment, after war and/or other serious troubles have been let loose, but before they reach critical mass, He’ll rescue His bride from the world’s hour of greatest trial before she’s scourged by it. (Rev. 3:3)
If I’m right, Jesus Christ may have released a restraining seal on Yom Teruah (Trumpets) Sept. 17, 2023and another on Yom Teruah(Trumpets) Oct. 2, 2024.
When Jesus Christ’s removes His bride from the earth, the final great way in which the Holy Spirit restrains will come to an end, because He remains withwith her as she rises.
I think the Holy Spirit works best through the saint when they’re united in community.
Prelude 11 Glory God Beyond
A Nuclear Harvest Seems Likely.
One thing’s certain: nowhere in the Bible does any prophet say that the bride of Christ will be rescued on or before the first day of Daniel’s 70 week. See post 14, mark 12.5.
Prophesies have recently been coming true faster that I can possibly write about them! God has clearly revealed, just in time, the above mentioned ‘three harvest model,’ which includes the Open Door Harvest (barley), the Pauline Harvest (wheat) and the Olivet Discourse fruit or ‘good grapes’ Harvest. So, the first resurrection must be parsed among those. See:
Since this is just an introductory post, I’m winding down, but some direction about what to look for next is needed, because what’s happening in the world right now is urgent. I’m writing the following part on Resurrection Sunday 2025:
Prelude 12 Glory God Beyond
The Unexpected Importance of the Book of Ester!
An early harvest of the bride of Jesus Christ is supported by the story told in the Biblical Book of Ester. Watchers are encouraged by this prophesy to keep awake for our Lord and Savior’s arrival, any time from Purim onward, until the nuclear issues, which caused Iran, Russia and China to apparently congeal on Purim March 14, 2025 and all other repercussions of Iran’s nuclear threat play out.
What’s the ‘event that changed everything’?It’s covered in this frequently updated post:
Although the ‘event that changed everything’ absolutely did happen exactly on Purim proper: March 14, 2025, the whole story of the Book of Ester doesn’t happen in one day or one month! That’s why watchers are still focusing on its being played out.
The only reason Israel didn’t blow up the Bushehr Nuclear Facility during the 2025 Passover week was: Trump stalled Netanyahu who was ready to do it. Trump wanted to try another diplomatic round.
Prelude 13 Glory God Beyond
The fulfillment of the events triggered by Purim as marked by blood moons, and the entire Book of Ester is really about a plea to God to allow Israel to defend itself.
Since the Old Covenant holy convocations probably can’t be fulfilled until the 3rd temple of God is built, my ‘watching’ in this highly prophetic year will continue to be focused on the Esterscope, as nuclear threat takes center stage! Jesus said He’d tarry and His tarry may have started from the 2025 Pentecost/Shavuot date,, which is the time of the fulfillment of the Barley Harvest. The Book of Ester will remain in the radar of AlephTav.blog until God’s third temple goes up, if were still here. see:
One thing was so exciting for me to learn about Ester!
As end-times prophesy: Ester is the Bride of the King of kings who risks her life to stand up for the Jews; The story is prophetic of the grafted on ‘hidden Israel’ (the true church/bride of Christ) who will do the same thing.The historically true story of Ester is relived every year by the Jews in their Purim festival. I think most Jews will be dumbfounded when they discover that their end times Ester was the bride of Christ!See it in action . . .
The entire Old Testament and the prophets point us to the Time of Jacob’s Trouble, the main purpose of which is the saving of the remnant of the Jews. (The rest will pay their eternal debt to God.) Father God, please help us always remember that it’s only through the Jews, through whom you sent your Son, Jesus Christ, that we ‘the called out ones’ from every nations have been saved, from a future of never ending damnation .
God is also using Christ’s bride to make the Jews jealous:
I am speaking to you Gentiles. Inasmuch as I am the apostle to the Gentiles, I magnify my ministry in the hope that I may provoke my fellow Jews to jealousy and save some of them. For if their rejection is the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead? Romans 11:13-15

Jesus said,to the Church of Philadelphia
“I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept My word and have not denied My name.” . . . Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come on the whole world to test the inhabitants of the earth.” Rev. 3 8-10
We, the bride, are waiting for our Lord and Bridegroom Jesus Christ to take us through His opened self. He promised to keep Himself open for the Church of Philadelphia!
TheBrideof Christmay be nearly synonymous with theChurch of Philadelphia.
Are there any brick and mortar churches existing now that’d receive as good of a report as the original Church of Philadelphia, as recorded by St. John in the Book of Revelation?
The end of the Church Age is rapidly approaching and there’s a type of apostasy, the rebellious type, (the other being the physical departure of true believers) about which Jesus Christ prophesied, that’s heavily upon us. Since Jesus specifically promised to keep the Church of Philadelphia from the ‘hour of trial’ that’s coming upon all the inhabitants of Earth, an end time only phenomenon, Jesus must have meant for the original Church of Philadelphia to be a model for future believers to follow.
1.2 Glory of God, DOOR
Modeling Ourselves
We need to avoid the pitfalls pointed out by Jesus Christ to 5 of the remaining 6 church types described in Rev. 2-3. Separating ourselves from worldliness accomplishes most of that. And we must produce fruit, especially the fruit of faith, and never deny His holy name. Also, we need to have some sort of ministry, no matter how small, using whatever method God makes available to us: We must be the light of the world!
Can’t find a church that acknowledges the times we’re in?
Online communities are real, and can be the best communities for some people. There are many Berean and watcher communities to interact with where we can edify and sometimes correct each other. But, we should also seek out local believers, if possible, with whom we can take communion, to remember what He did for us by sharing the same loaf and cup.

TheNew Testament Epilogue
“And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him-that-heareth say “Come!” And let him-that-is-athirst come.And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely. I testify to everyone who hears the words of prophecy in this book: If anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book: And if anyone takes away from the words of this book of prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and the holy city, which are described in this book, He who testifies to these things say, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus! The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all the saints. Amen.
Revelation 22:17
Notice that, in the New Heavens and the New Earth Jesus doesn’t use the term ‘church’ or ‘body’ to address His redeemed people. Instead He calls His redeemed: the bride, those who hear and those who are thirsty!
1.4 Glory of God, DOOR
The Church of Philadelphia may be the most mature part of His body in the very last days, those not requiring the tribulum.
The Church of Philadelphia clearly seems to be the owner’s portion of our Lord and Savior‘s Barley Harvest of souls – His Bride. (Rev. 2-3) The idea of the removal of the Church of Philadelphia, from the body-of-Christ, through His ‘open door,’ which is Himself, can be likened to the removal of something from Adam’s side, a part of Adam’s body; That happened in the Garden of Eden, and from it Adam’s wife was formed.
It’s been put forth by fellow Bereans, that being counted as the ‘bride’ of Christ’ is a reward and that the ‘Open Door Harvest’ is part of it. What do you think?
1.5 Glory of God, DOOR
Examples of Rewards
Colossians 3: 23-24
“Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance. It is the Lord Christ whom you serve.”
Mark 9:41
“For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink because of your name as followers of Christ, truly I say to you, he will not lose his reward.”
2 Timothy 4:8
Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.
It makes sense that it’d be a reward to be kept from the great tribulation.
Not All Believers Are Kept From It
There’s an uncountable number of saints who will come out-of/from the great tribulation (not God’s wrath, which is the greatest tribulation)after a quarter of humanity has perished at the sixth seal. Rev. 7:11, And he said, “These are they who have come out of the great tribulation …”
That’s the opposite of being kept out-of/from the great tribulation. Rev. 3:8, “I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come on the whole world to test the inhabitants of the earth.”
1.6 Glory of God, DOOR
LET’S COMPARE THE TWO GROUPS AGAIN – IT’S SUBTLE
The Open Door Harvest as the owner’s portion of the Barley Harvest of Revelation 3:8
“Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will keep you from the ‘hour of testing.'”
VS
TheSixth Seal Harvest as the owner’s portion of the Wheat Harvest ofRevelation 7:13
“they came from the ‘great tribulation’ they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.”
The first group is kept from/out of it and the second group came from/out of it, after 1/4 of humanity died.
1.7 Glory of God, DOOR
Bible’s quite Mysterious about His Bride
Although Rev. 3 7-13, doesn’t directly refer to the Church of Philadelphia as the bride, she very much seems to be. As mentioned above, it’d be that she’s taken ‘out of’ the body-of-Christ as Adam’s wife was taken ‘out of’ Adam’s body. If that’s the case, it would happen before the ‘hour of testing’ that’s about to come upon the whole world!
Keep alert at all times. And pray that you might be strong enough to escape these coming horrors and stand before the Son of Man. (Luke 21:36)
Could the bridesmaids be the remainder of the body of Christ?
Then the angel said to me, “Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb!” And he added, “These are the true words of God.” (Rev. 9:9)
I ask . . .who’s invited to the Wedding Supper of the Lamb besides His bride? The Parable of the 10 Virgins/Bridesmaids comes to mind. It says all ten fell asleep. Where’s the bride?
1.8 Glory of God, DOOR
Is the bride of Christ is made up of the believers who didn’t fall asleep, those who were watching intently and keeping their garments clean?
I’ve heard other watchers suggest this. One thing that the bride-of Christ and the Open Door Harvest of the Church of Philadelphia have in common is: They’re both mysterious.
! WOW !
! WOW !
Update 9-9-25 – I just found out that the older – Peshitta versions of Matthew 25:1 include the bride! So the bridesmaids aren’t the bride after all!
(Etheridge) THEN shall be likened the kingdom of heaven unto ten virgins, who took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom and the bride.
(Murdock) Then may the kingdom of heaven be shadowed forth by ten virgins, who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom and bride.
(Lamsa) THEN the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins, who took their lamps, and went out to greet the bridegroom and the bride.
Although the uncountable number of Tribulation Saints of Rev. 7 aren’t referred to as the church, the bride, or the body; they must be the main part of the body. To look deeper into this, see:
The body of Christ is harvested at different times, just as the head is part of the body and Jesus Christ went up first.
For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. But every man in his own order: Christ the first fruit; afterward they that are Christ’s. 1 Corinthians 15 21-23
Even so the body is not made up of one part but of many. 1 Corinthians 12:14
1.10 Glory of God, DOOR
Reminder:
AlephTav.blog uses the vantage point that the time period called the ‘great tribulation’ in Revelation 7:14 at the sixth seal, precedes God’s Wrath. That’s why I call the ‘wrath of God’ the ‘greatEST tribulation,’ to avoid confusion:
For then there will be great tribulation such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be. (Matt. 24:21)
By contrast, there’ve been many great tribulations, such as the genocide of Armenian Christians (1.2-2 million martyred) by the Turks, just 100 yrs ago; The sixth seal is worse, but it is still one of those; In Matt. 24, Jesus was talking about the greatEST one that comes after it.

1.12 Glory of God, DOOR
Based on a AD 31 (or 30) AD crucifixion date, we’re running out of time. The Fig Tree Generation, the 3 day Sign of Jonah . . .
For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. (Matt. 12:40)
. . .and the Ezekiel 40 Year Siege Sign (using inclusive, or exclusive, counting, depending on the year, from the cross to the destruction of the 2nd temple.) A 31 AD crucifixion is the best prophetic fit overall, with the Daniel 9:27 prophetic timeline. Christ’s second coming, will probably be on Nisan 1, the first day of 2031 ADT (Torah); That’s still very early in 2031 AD.The possibilities are narrowing drastically. There’s very powerful evidence that a timeline has come together.
In 2024-25 AD/ADT, many watchers thoroughly studied all of God’s ‘appointed times’ plus quite a few other seemingly likely times when Jesus Christ may have harvested His bride; Our doing so glorifies Him. His name is above all namesand in the process, we discovered how deeply and widely the entire Bible points to His coming.
Feast of Trumpets (Yom Teruah) 2023 was my first ever high watch, but I wouldn’t have wanted to miss out on learning about the Biblical typologies that underlie all the other high watches, while awaiting the great day of our blessed hope!

Traditions of Men vs Living Revelation(This video explains the three harvests in greatest detail and will clarify the foundation of the timing scheme we’re about to delve into. )
From every direction, and from various calendars, the arrows have been drawing together pointing to the likelihood that the King of kings’ will harvest His bride in late 2025 or early 2026 ADT(Torah). It’s to His greater glory if we fully appreciate that His appearance will occur after His promised tarry. I deduce that His tarry may have been extending from what would’ve been the appointed time for the fulfillment of His Barley Harvest. That would’ve been the 2025 AD/ADT Pentecost/Shavuot, which itself may’ve had a late start if 2024 ADT had a leap year month appended to it (according to God’s accounting). All this fell under something I call the ‘Ester Umbrella.’ Read on to see some of the many layers of meaning.
~~~~The Prophetic Book of Ester~~~~
In the prelude post, I introduced something I call the ‘Ester Umbrella’ (or scope). Here’s another intro., but the main Book of Ester discussion, and it may be nuclear, is below at mark 1.36.
Ester foreshadows the bride of Christ: And, Purim is the festival celebrating the historical events recorded in the Book of Ester that has been celebrated every year by Jews for millennia. But the Ester Umbrella is not recurring. God’s has anchored it in these end times by three heavenly blood moon witnesses, signs that occurred in the cosmos three years in a row, with the central one pointing to Purim on March 14, 2025AD when something happened – a trigger. explained below
And those who have insight will shine like the glow of the expanse of heaven, and those who lead the many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever. (Daniel 12:3)
There’s ample evidence that the signs of the grand finale of God Almighty’s plan are converging even faster that expected!
1.14 Glory of God, DOOR
God Almighty sets the dates. We watch as Jesus Christ commanded us to, but it’s impossible to watch without paying attention to calendars. We focus on upcoming high watches more than later ones, since we don’t want to be caught unaware; And it’s a bit like driving a car, how a nearer mountain peak can partially occlude the ones behind it. So we pins dates to stay organized as we focus on each ‘high watch’ like crosshairs of a larger target. The crosshairs don’t necessarily land on the bullseye. That’s nearly impossible, since with the time zones ‘a calendrical day’ takes almost 48 hours to happen everywhere. It’s also difficult to reconcile the many calendars, but studying them greatly improves Biblical knowledge.
There’ve been quite a few high watch intervals ‘under the Ester umbrella,’ which will continue to be our scope, until the third temple’s built. If we’re still here after that (very doubtful), then the remaining Torah appointed holy convocations that God promised to fulfill, will again take precedence.There’s a list of those at the end of this post
Before we get started on how the two main high watch days that this years complex study is boiling down to by following the very trail we’ve been on here, for a little over year, let me interject one date May 23-24 ’26 AD, because it’s the Rabbinical Shavuot/Pentecost ’26 AD/ADT. The state of the world requires us not to ignore this as the possible ‘hour of trial’ day.
May 23-24 ’26 AD,
Be aware that God might use Torah shaped days, which begin at sunset at 5:30 PM in Israel, which translates to 11:30 AM in NY because NY is observing daylight savings time (EDT).
Although that’s off our main trail, because we’ve been favoring a ‘month delayed’ Pentecost, and seemingly an even more important leap year Ascension Day, over the Rabbinical version of those, it’s also possible that both calendars are in use by God, each which have their leap year months appended to different years, so the two calendars line up in some years and are 30 days off in other years.
It’s also possible that the 2026 is the barley harvest bride maturity year and that we jumped the gun!
The Rabbinical Feast of Trumpets dates in 2023 and 2024 seemed to be of great prophetic import and so did the tail end of the Great American Eclipses landing on the moment before Nisan 1 ’24 ADT began the final week of years of this age.. Both calendars seemed to be in alignment on those 3 occasions. But, 2025 is a year in which the Torah calendar was likely delayed by a month, yet the Trump UN speech on Rabbinical Feast of Trumpets was very significant, probably highly prophetic and possibly the day Jesus broke of the fourth seal. The divergence of the calendars and the hypothesis that Almighty God uses them both, is supported by the mysterious 30 days added to the end of this age according to Daniel 12:11.
The following are the final ‘delayed year’ high watch dates. They’re self explanatory, but I recommend reading below about how it was derived in such a way that it wasn’t necessary to jump the trail we’ve been on, because the process all along the trail, including the cul-de-sacs, scooped up additional meaning that contributed to Jesus Christ’s glory and showed how He may have written His redeemed people into His story in such a way that gives us insight into our collective selves.
June 10th-11th ’26 AD is Ascension Day of the delayed 2026!
June 20th-21st ’26 AD? is Pentecost of the delayed 2026!
1.15 Glory of God, DOOR
Shavuot/Pentecost
The initial high watch times under the Ester Umbrella were the two possible months in which Shavuot/Pentecost may have occurred. That’s God’s appointed time for focusing on the ‘first fruits’ of the wheat harvest, but more importantly, for the bride of Christ, it also marks the ‘fulfillment’ of the Barley Harvest. (Over time I realized that this view didn’t make room for the gleanings, and now I think Ascension Day is the day for the lifting up of the main barley harvest of saints and that the gleanings come after that, possibly on or just before Pentecost.)
Wasn’t Shavuot/Pentecost fulfilled in the year of Jesus Christ’s crucifixion, resurrection and ascension?
Shavuot/Pentecost may have been only partially fulfilled then. Possible reasons: It’s a pilgrimage holy convocation; The Holy Spirit who came down to indwell the saints on Shavuot/Pentecost, must make the return trip to heaven bringing the saints up with Him. Also, some think that since Jesus wasn’t physically on Earth at that time, He couldn’t have fulfilled it.
1.16 Glory of God, DOOR
Note: If there wasn’t a leap year delay, Shavuot/Pentecost 2025, would’ve been on June 7-8. But, if Jesus considered it to be a delayed barley (bride) maturity year, God’s entire calendar will have been pushed forward by a month, in which case, Shavuot/Pentecost would’ve been on July 7-8, in God’s eyes.Before the Israelites corrupted God’s calendar, there was always an extra month added before the start of a new Torah year whenever Spring had not sprung and barley was not mature (green) enough.
If Shavuot/Pentecost was ‘the day’ and Jesus Christ did promised He’d tarry, then we’re in the tarry . . .
Reborn in the spirit believers, making up His bride, are given glorified bodies to become the ‘living stones’ of God’s living temple. The sudden disappearance of the core of Christ’s church (His bride) is likely to be the most direct trigger for the Jews to rebuildthe masonry temple of God in Jerusalem. I predict it could be rededicated by the religious Jews, even as soon as two months after the church collapses.

The Schumann Resonance
There’s been a anomaly in the Schumann Resonance, a unique sign, unlike anything that God has ever been known to send before. It seems to show that there was something very special going on regarding Hanukkah in 2025 ADT(Torah). Rabbis are using March 19 ’26AD as the first day of their Spring calendar (Nisan 1 ’26 ADT). But, by continuing with the leap year schedule that this post has been following, Nisan 1 ’26 ADT won’t occur until April 18-19 ’26AD, (If the moon sliver is occluded, April 20-21 at the latest), in God’s eyes. That has very interesting ramifications. keep reading . . .
The Menorah represents God’s Covenant People
It shows the burning Holy Spirit’s light in the betrothal relationship, which for the Jews, is mediated mainly through the Levitical priesthood; But a portion of the Holy Spirit lives directly inside true Christians, and Yeshua Hamashiach (the Jewish Messiah, Jesus Christ) is our High Priest.

A MESSAGE FROM HEAVEN? HANUKKAH MENORAH IN THE SCHUMANN RESONANCE
For all the reasons shown,I folded a 2024 ADT (Torah)leap year month into the date calculations of my ‘Final Week Date Estimates Chart,’ the chart for the final seven years of God’s 6,000 allotment for humanities rebellion. (See bottom of post 4.) If it turns out not to be the case, a month can be subtracted from the 2025 ADT events and adjusted for 2026 ADT events. Doing so may slightly decrease precision.
The Hanukah connection is thoroughly explained below at mark 1.34.
Remembering God’s Unfaithful Old Covenant Bride
As mentioned, the 3rd temple is likely to go up with amazing speed after Jesus Christ redeems His bride. Then the menorah’s flames in the masonry temple will begin again to reflect the condition of the Old Testament betrothal relationship.
Although God our Father, YHWH, had the right to legally divorce her, the Books of Hosea and Ezekiel only tell us that He’ll completely cut Himself off from her – all of her – meaning both the Northern and the Southern Kingdoms, for 2,000 yrs; After, that He’ll take her back, but not in her former condition; The Northern Kingdom will have never repented, and they disgraced YHWH’s Holy Name in the countries to which they were exiled. But, YHWH will wash them clean and give them new hearts. He will also put His Holy Spirit inside of them.But, they won’t receive glorified immortal bodies like the saints of Christ’s grain harvests or the repentant Jews of the Good Grape Harvest. Those who never repented will serve Him in His masonry temple in Jesus Christ’s Millennial Kingdom for 1,000 years, in shame. (Still much better that eternal burning.)
But alas, 2025 ADT may have been a double Hanukkah year!
Recap: If you’ve been reading this post, you know that since Spring, 2025 ADT(Torah) has been strongly suspected to have followed a leap year in God’s accounting. If so, every festival was observed a month prematurely by Rabbinical Jews. That opened the way for two Hanukkah date intervals this year, since the Jews observed Hanukkah in December. God didn’t actually prescribe Hanukkah, which means dedication. It’s the Jewish memorial of the dedication of their preexisting temple after it was thoroughly cleansed, following a terrible desecration by an enemy in the 2nd century BC.
1.20 Glory of God, DOOR
If this is correct, it also supports the 30 extra days of Daniel 12:11.
Jesus Christ attended Hanukkah and He gave an awesome teaching then. That’s when He spoke the words, “… understand that the Father is in me, and I in the Father.” John 10:38 This speaks volumes: The temple is the earthly place where God the Father ‘enters’ so Jesus was pointing to the concept of a new type of temple, one that is not made of masonry. Previously, in John 2:19, Jesus had said, “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.” So He was calling His body God’s temple. That was at the time just before Passover, when He was turning over tables and driving merchants out of the temple courts.
The first 2026 AD Hanukah’s menorah represented Hagar and/or Vashti, the Old Covenant rebellious bride see Gal. 4 21-31 who uses an adulterated calendar that only superficially resembles God’s calendar; But the second Hanukah’s menorah, the calendrically correct one, represented Sarah and/or Ester, the New Covenant faithful bride. It wasn’t observed as a physical gathering of believers or with lighting candles at home. It was observed spiritually, by those who understand that the bride is ready, due to understanding the meaning of the times we’re in, as well as the meaning of God’s living temple that all reborn believers make up. Jesus has not commanded His followers to observe or to not to observe any holidays, in a legal sense, but He did command us to ‘watch’ during the end times.
If we’re watching and we recognize that the delayed 2025 AD barley harvest was the time of the completion of Christ’s bride, that we’re already in Daniel’s 70th week and that were ‘out of time,’ according to prophesy end dates that are falling into place, we won’t consider this Hanukah to be insignificant, because the living temple is the ultimate expression of God the Father’s relationship with His children in the New Jerusalem in the New Heavens and the New Earth.

When the seven lamp stands were introduced to us in Rev. 3, we weren’t directly told whether or not any of the seven churches/lamps were lit. But, immediately after that, Rev. 4,St. John goes through an open door in the spiritand enters God’s throne room where he sees the seven lamps stands all ablaze before the Lamb of God, just before God our Father hands Him the scroll. So, what would be the purpose for the watchers in recognizing Hanukkah 2025 AD as significant, even though the candles on the menorah are traditionally lit one at a time, one per day? As a memorial, it’s is a reliving, in a sense, of the 7 churches that the Book of Revelation starts out with, in chronological order: Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamon, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodicea. But, it’s a dedication? What might that mean?
Much can be speculated about this, too much to write about here; but in a nutshell: We are the soon to be harvested spirit/souls of the barley harvest, but we’re also the newly completed living temple of God; Temples are dedicated; God’s spiritual temple can be spiritually dedicated when the members involved are cognizant of the meaning, timing and spirit of the occasion; Those who are in Christ are all drinking of one spirit, no matter where they are in the world. Being mature enough and being completely ready are not necessarily the same thing. If there was no tarry we would have expected the barley harvest to have been gathered by Jesus Christ no later that Pentecost 2025. (10 days earlier on Ascension Day may’ve been a even more fitting time).
1.23 Glory of God, DOOR
But there’s the promised tarry; During the tarry His bride, and likely his bridesmaids along with her, are dedicated as God’s living temple, which will also serve as a major anchor for those who are watching for the day of our blessed hope. (I’m not saying that nobody will calculate the day that Jesus Christ will gather His bride, just that no one can be 100% certain.)
Now I’m going to plunge into some of the supporting signs, watchman history and parts that follow key the Hanukkah stepping stone leading to the final three high watch dates below:
A plethora of signs pointed to Dec. 21 ’25AD then another plethora to Jan. 21 ’26AD.The following channel’s videos from that time period, explain them well: https://www.youtube.com/@stevefletcher2223:
Although those are very powerful signs; Our understanding of some of them has developed from what we originally expected, serving different yet still very meaningful purposes, not the least of which has been to provide stepping stones or bread crumbs to encourage the watchers and guide them forward.
1.22 Glory of God, DOOR
So, it turned out that the signs pointing to Dec. 21 ’25AD were predominantly relevant for the Jews. That was the 7th day of their Hanukkah (as Rabbinical Jews observed it.)
Jan. 21 ’26AD was the 7th day of the leap year Hanukkah, a very high watch date for the barley bride of Christ!
Why didn’t Jesus Christ gather us then?
Come Jesus Come! Maranatha!

Could it be that great spiritual war in heaven, the fourth horseman of the Apocalypse, even nuclear war over Iran, that’s still looming under the Ester umbrella, are all parts of the cause for this part of the delay before Jesus Christ, our high priest, metaphorically, lights the 8th lamp, the lamp representing new beginning? Our spiritual menorah, which is physically represented in God’s throne room has 7 lamps representing the 7 church types; What I think is that since the 7th lamp, possibly corresponds to the Church of Laodicea, finally lit up on Jan. 21 ’26 AD, we know that very soon our new beginnings as the bride of the King of the Universe, for eternity, will begin! https://songsense.io/europe/the-final-countdown
The Earthly Hanukkah Menorah’s 8th Lamp
In the Bible ‘8’ means ‘new beginnings’ and/or ‘eternity.’ So it appears that the lighting of the 7th candle was the completion of His true church, which is His bride and, in my opinion, also His bridesmaids, before the final countdown to our new beginning; Perhaps there’s more than one category of reasons for His delay, see below to consider the 80 days of purification possibility plus 30 days, or merely a 110 day for a different reason. Jesus Christ may want a nuclear rapture, ‘in the twinkling of an eye.’ Many believers have had visions of this. Since I wrote about that likely-hood a year ago, it still seems like a very real possibility to me. It could be all of those reasons just mentioned.
1.25 Glory of God, DOOR
The next two high-watch days were not the day in which Christ gathered His bride, but they had unexpected importance, bridging the gap until more was revealed. After Jan. 21 ’26 AD…We kept track of a 21 day delay, for the spiritual battle over Iran/Persia, Daniel 9-10 style . . .. . . counting inclusively, and it landed on Feb. 11 ’26 AD another day loaded with signs! Feb. 11 was, at least symbolically, the anniversary of the day the animals started entering Noah’s Ark because 7 days later came Feb. 17 ‘26 AD Genesis 7:11 says that God shut the door of the ark from the inside on the 17th day of the 2nd month: Of course, the calendar has shifted since then, but it was worth watching for me, because there were also many other signs pointing to that day, such as the ring of fire solar eclipse over Antarctica, I Pet Goat II predictive programming, and the fact that it was the 77th anniversary of the day Israel established its government, the Knesset!
On Feb. 11 ’26 AD Netanyahu rushed to Washington to meet with Trump; Voila! Netanyahu signed on to the Gazan Board of Peace, which I think may be the: Covenant with Death
Isaiah 28 14-15 Therefore hear the word of the LORD, you scoffers who rule this people in Jerusalem. You boast, “We have struck a bargain to cheat death and have made a deal to dodge the grave. The coming destruction can never touch us, for we have built a strong refuge made of lies and deception.. . . 18Your covenant with death will be annulled; your agreement with the realm of the dead will not stand.

******************
May 11 2026AD/ADT,
was a stepping stone:
as is explained below,
But God Almighty uses 30 days and 40 days as spacers for various reasons:
June 11th
and
June 21th
come after those extensions of May 11
Now here’s the rational behind the May 11th stepping stone, but there’s a short cut:
These same dates happen to be Ascension Day and Pentecost, in the case that 2026 ADT was a delayed year!
Coincidence?
I don’t think so!
I once thought May 11th it might be the last bread crumb on the trail that this post has been tracking since 2025 ADT began, but thankfully, it continues . . .
May 11 ’26 AD is the penultimate stepping stone of this year long trail, which began with a delayed barley maturity pushing forward 2025 ADT that was greatly strengthened by the Jan. 21 ’26 delayed Hanukah. Then came the 110 days, which are explained below.
1.27 Glory of God, DOOR
Why 110 days?
There were two individuals in history who foreshadowed Jesus Christ. Even Rabbinical Jews say there was Messiah ben Joseph and Messiah ben Joshua, meaning there’s a suffering Messiah that comes before a warrior Messiah. But, Christians know that Joseph and Joshua foreshadowed the first and second comings of the one and only Messiah, Jesus Christ!
It glorifies Jesus Christ to bring this to the world’s attention, highlighting the two sides Him: The Lion and The Lamb.
How does the number 110 contribute to Christ’s ultimate glory? Joseph was the one who forgave his brothers after they sold him into slavery; He saved all 11 of his brothers along with the rest of Israel from famine; Joshua was the fearless one who militarily led the Israelites into Canaan to battle the giants. Both died at age 110!
So again, May 11 ’26 AD was where the 110 days landed…
Although it’s passed, as mentioned above, we’ll also be watching until after first a 30, and then, if necessary, after a 40 day spacer from May 11. The 30 days extension will bring us to June 10-11 ’26 AD, the anniversary of Jesus Christ’s delayed year Ascension Day; And the 40 day extension would brings us to June 20-21 ’26 AD, delayed year Pentecost.

Details on the context of those dates and the effects of leap year months?
I’m so glad: A sister in one of my fellowships just posted this excellent video. Toward the end it explains the delay!
URGENT: Deep Mystery of Daniel’s Gap Revealed! Rapcon 1! Rapture High Watch All Week ’til “Shavuot”!
Assuming Rabbinical Passover and the entire Hebrew year began a month prematurely:
30 days from May 11th is June 10th, which we’re calling Ascension Day. Such is true only if Passover, in God’s eyes, was really supposed to be a month after the month in which the Jews observed it. (I’m not talking about ‘second Passover,’ because that’s just a makeup Passover, which is not followed by a true Shavuot/Pentecost.) It would mean that all the Spring (and Fall) holy convocations should’ve been observed a month later than when the Rabbinical Jews did, according to their Metonic mathematical calendar, which only gets the month right about half the time. Discrepancies happen because Torah years should often end with a leap month added, due to barley crop immaturity. The Jews ignore all that because their Metonic calendar adds its own leap years according to a mathematical formula, one that’s divorced from God’s plan for the barley harvest and His Barley Harvest Bride. I’ve noticed, through working with Torah calendars, that even if the prior year did not have a leap month appended, if that same ‘prior year’ had been itself pushed forward, due to the year before it terminating with a leap month, occasionally the ‘pushing forward’ will translate across, even into the next year, in such a way that even the second year following a leap year seems to begin later relative to other calendars). It’s a very delicate balance that takes place between the lunar years, which are always falling backward, and the timing regarding how the leap years push them forward again, relative to different calendars themselves have periodic adjustments.
But an apparent ‘double pushing forward’ is not the only possibility: June 10th ’26 AD could still be the day of our blessed hope, even if 2025 did have a leap month added to it, but only in the case that we were wrong about 2024 having had one. There’s no way to know or sure, but if this is the case, it seems to mean that Christ’s bride didn’t mature in 2025 AD! But, if 2026 was the year His barley bride matured, then: Where’s His tarry? If our Lord and Savior gathers us on exactly what seems to be the perfect day, which is Ascension day, or anytime between Ascension Day and Pentecost; How would His promised tarry fit into that? I’ve been sensing that we’ve already been living through His tarry.Doesn’t now absolutely feel like the perseverance of His bride? We’ll know very soon. If we’re just about to begin a tarry, we’ll be paying a lot of attention again to the Fall season again. I certainly hope not, but there’s another possibility:
I’ve recently reverted back to this with hindsight: If the Midnight Cry went out on Sept 17 ’23 AD, not it’s foreshadow but The Cry itself, and His tarry began then, on Feast of Trumpets/Yom Teruah 2024, and we’ve already been in His tarry for a bit over 2.7 yrs. The start of Daniel’s 70th Week began ~six months later April 9 ’24 AD, immediately after the conclusion of the third of the Great American Eclipses. That’s two years and a month prior to the day I’m writing this, on May 29 ’26 AD.
This bring us to a dispensation question since this means that Jesus Christ broke the first seal, 6 months before Daniel’s 70th week began. Now I’m a dispensationist but not a rigid one, especially when it comes to the last week of years when God may have compressed time, many complexities exist and we’re only given certain information as needed.. I believe I have proven that, in God’s throne room, it’s the torches/lamps stands that represent the state if Christ’s bride, while she remains on Earth, not the 24 elders.
God’s timing is perfect but we can only see as through a glass darkly. . . back to the current high watch intervals:
1.29 Glory of God, DOOR
Assuming a delayed year:
June 10-11 ’26 AD is a very interesting day indeed!
Ascension Day!
And 10 days after that on June 20-21 ’26 AD?
Pentecost!
I’m not an expert on how all the calendars shift relative to each other and the cosmic markers.
But here are my thoughts: As solar years pass, the 12 month lunar years quickly fall behind them, and without the leap year months, before long, the first month of the lunar year would begin in the dead of Winter instead of Spring. The added leap year months never cause anything to align perfectly, as seen from our human perspective. That’s part of the beauty of it, because it keeps God Almighty in control. The adjustments are not perfectly regular. Sometimes a year that’s been pushed forward pushes the next year forward too, relative to other calendars and even the equinoxes and solstices. It depends upon exactly how the moon aligns with everything, including the sun, at the time when the first delayed year becomes the next year.. So, as mentioned above, if a 2024 leap month pushed all of 2025 ADT forward, it could still force 2026 ADT to appear to be a month late relative to the Gregorian and the Rabbinical calendars. Again, that’s ‘without’ having to add a leap month to the end of 2025 ADT.
2026 AD Spring season Holy Convocation DATES
RABBINICAL: Nisan 1 = March 18-19; Passover = March 31-April 1; First Fruits = April 4-5; Shavuot = May 23-24
LEAP YEAR: Nisan 1 = April 17-18th or 18-19th (new moon ~1AM); Passover = Apr. 30 – May 1; First Fruits = May 2-3; Pentecost = May 20-21
Jesus Christ was resurrected from the dead on an appointed day called First Fruits, which is the first fruits ‘specifically of the barley harvest’.
And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. Genesis 2 23-24
The idea of being of the ‘same substance’ is another reason why the bride of Christ is associated with the Barley Harvest, not the Wheat Harvest.
We’re talking about His bride, and not literal grain, so it doesn’t need to be the case that He tarries for just a month or two.
I’ve believed we’re in His tarry since a June or July 2025 Pentecost.
Let’s remember how Jesus observed the Sabbath? Jesus is Lord of the Sabbath. Jesus Christ is Lord of His bride as well. Our Lord and Savior is One with the spirit of the law, but we only see as through a glass darkly. If Jesus could heal on the Sabbath, He can delay a longer to gather His bride.
The tarry ‘time limit’ scripturally is that our Lord and Savior must gather the fulfillment of His Barley Harvest, including gleanings, before He sets apart the first fruits of the Wheat Harvest,who I believe are the 144,000 who’re specially sealed before He takes His tribulation saints.

Three Harvests – each with three parts:
First Fruits of the Barley Harvest could also be the captives Jesus removed from Hell, the ‘Bosom of Abraham’, when He took captivity captive.
(My interpretation of the two grape harvests of Rev. 14, is that only the second harvest is the grapes of wrath).
Watching in 2025 was strange – complicated by a false prophet – a survey:
Will the Jews need the blood of animals during the last week of Daniel for a time, until they accept their Anointed King? Apparently they do; But since, we don’t know for sure, we should be ready for everything.(After a careful reading of many Old Greek to English translations of Daniel 9:27 and doing my own translation as well, I think yes; Many weeks of sacrifices by the Jews will be necessary because the passage mentions a payment of public (sin) debt. We know that 2/3 of the Jews will also be killed. Sadly, that could be related.)
The Feast of Dedication is the memorial of the re-dedication of the Temple of God. That first happened a few years after the ‘abomination of desolation’ event 168/167 BC.
That desolation event included a statue of Zeus, a burnt sacrifice of swine, and the spreading of swine fat on and in the Holy of Holies, all committed by Antiochus Epiphanes who was the precursor and shadow of: not only the final king of the North, but also the Beast, Antichrist, Man-of-Lawlessness, Son-of-Perdition; He was a Greek Seleucid from the territory that we now call Syria.
1.33 Glory of God, DOOR
. . . To Cleanse the Temple of God . . .
The Feast of Dedication or Hanukkah is the observance of the anniversary of the cleansing and re-consecration of God’s Temple after the horrific event. I don’t know all the procedures that had to be done, but I expect that the ashes of a red heifer had to be used. The alter for sacrifices had to be completely rebuilt from scratch.
How ‘temple purification’ can be seen as analogous to the glorified bodies of saints, where the old body is like a seed that must die to bring it forth, is mostly foreshadowing of the bride of Christ, at least when we compare it to the temple purification, because the menorah represents God’s bride.
Relevant verses:
John 2 10-21 “All right,” Jesus replied (to the Jewish leaders). “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” They replied, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and you are going to raise it in three days?” But, when Jesus said ‘this temple’ he meant his own body.
1 Corinthians 6 19-20 Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.
1.34 Glory of God, DOOR
1 Corinthians 12 13-14 For we were all baptized by one Spirit so as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. Even so the body is not made up of one part but of many.
Ephesians 1 22-23 And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills everything in every way.
Corruptible must put on Incorruptible
Mortality must put on Immortality
So we individual saints are temples of the Holy Spirit. One might say we were first dedicated when we received the Holy Spirit. But, since our bodies are of sin nature, they can’t inherit God’s Kingdom. We need to ask Jesus to ‘wash our feet’ or we have no place with Him. I see the putting on of in-corruption and immortality, when we put on our new bodies, as a type of re-dedication. It’s comparable to what the bronze alter of the Temple of God had to go through; It had to be completely replaced to make it acceptable enough for YHWH to come near it. Here’s the parallel I see: In a twinkling of an eye, when believers receive their glorified bodies, they’ll be cleansed and rededicated. Only then will God our Father receive us bodily. That’s the Hanukkah connection!

This has been the most prophetic year for the
Book of Ester!
Even if Jesus tarries until the very edge of the Ester umbrella, which is the rebuilding of the masonry temple in Jerusalem, I still understand that the bride of Christ is the owner’s portion of God’s Barley Harvest. The Ester umbrella is really interesting and we’re about to get into it!
In John 5:1 Jesus Christ attended Purim. He called it ‘The Feast of the Jews’.
What I find most interesting is that a barley harvest of souls, based upon the harvest symbolism that Jesus Christ used, will still fall within the scope of the Book of Ester, even if He tarries for quite a long time after the two possible Shavuot/Pentecost dates.
I’d been wondering since late Spring if Jesus Christ, our beloved, is aligning His tarry to coincide with Israel’s bombing of the Bushehr Nuclear power plant in Susa/Elam Iran. Read on to see what Purim could have to do with that.
The events of the Book of Ester have been triggered!
In 2025 AD, Purim was observed on March 14-15 (Adar 15 ADT); A very significant blood moon sign appeared within the constellations of the Revelation 12 Sign. But on that day Virgo, which represents Israel, was the bride of Christ, who is the hidden grafted on Israel.
The cosmic sign was the middle witness of a triple lunar eclipse. The following was called out by certain watchers, before it happened: Watchers predicted there’d be an earth shattering event, one that will change everything!
1.37 Glory of God, DOOR
God Almighty has showed us with His signs, and now it has happened!
Above: happened on the Purim 2025 crosshairs date:
A month later, during the Rabbinical observance of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, on April 15, the US unleashed hell on the Houthis in Yemen. Many of their targets were blown off the map.
The only reason Israel didn’t blow up Iran’s Bushehr nuclear facility in the first weeks of May was: Trump stalled Netanyahu.
Trump wanted to try one more diplomatic round after having shown off his B-2 nuclear capable stealth bombers on Yemen, six of them costing $1.1 billion each, situated on Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean within shooting distance of the Bushehr nuclear plant. (By the first week of June, Iran could have enriched their uranium to 90%.)
So it’s been just building up ever since. Too much news to put here.

But, what’s happening encompassesthe entire meaning of the Purim Story . . .
Hamen foreshadows the Ayatollah Khamenei, a type of antichrist. Ester, who was adopted by Mordecai, foreshadows the bride of Christ, grafted onto the olive tree of Israel via the New Covenant in His blood, adopted into God’s family. King Ahaserius and Mordecaireflect God the Father and God the Son, but with overlapping roles. At first King Ahaseurus goes along with his top adviser Hamen, who wanted to destroy all the Jews, starting with hanging Mordecai on a gallows, because Mordecai refused to bow down to Hamen.By never sinning, Jesus never bowed down to satan, which is how he conquered death. Satan wants to destroy all the Jews because: Jesus said He won’t return until the Jews say “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord.” Satan would win if he could destroy all the Jews by corrupting their DNA, getting them to stop reproducing, getting them to become transhumans or by killing them. If there are no Jews left, they can never say those words and Jesus won’t return. Later King Ahaseuruschanges His mind about the Jews after Mordecai,who was a Jew, proved his love and loyalty, saving his life by revealing a plot against him.Jesus Christ, a Jew physically, proved His loyalty to YHWH, God the Father, by becoming sin on the cross in order to purchase a people for Him, while delusional satan thought he was overcoming Jesus by getting Him crucified, thus the connection with the gallows.Haman is ultimately destroyed on the very gallows he made for Mordecai!Queen Ester risked being put to death, by approaching King Ahaseuruson his throne. She revealed her Jewish roots, the truth that Mordecai had adopted her, and stood up for the Jews. This is paralleled by the fact that through the blood of Jesus Christ, the true church is adopted into God Almighty’s family. We’re given Jewish roots not only by being grafted on to the the olive Tree of Israel, but by being covered by Jesus’ Jewish blood. Jesus Christ maintains our position in the most high family through His role as our High Priest forever; He’s faithful to sprinkle His holy blood on us every time we approach God our Father’s throne . . . for eternity. Ester stood up for the Jews despite the fact that she didn’t grow up in a Jewish community; She was raised more like a gentile in Persian culture despite having been adopted by Mordecai, who was Jewish. The parallel is: America, the only country in the world willing to stand for the Jews, is the country that has had the greatest/most concentrated number of saints of the bride-of-Christ since Israel was reestablished as a nation.Although the ‘church’ in America has, for the most part, divorced itself from the true word of God, the over 250 years of Christian foundation previously built, was still making it possible for America to stand up for the Jews, for a short while; not because the Jews are good, but because they’re of the promise to Abraham through Sara, and also because they’re the biological brethren of Jesus Christ, through whom God the Father sent His perfect Son who is our Savior, the one who paid the price for our eternal sin debt, with His blood.Vashti, the deposed rebellious wife of King Ahaseurus, represents the ‘Israel of the Old Covenant‘ who for the most part did not love or respect YHWH, as evidenced by rarely ceasing to be disobedient as a nation.

It’s not just the cosmic alliance that occurred on Purim that marked the catalytic event, which is related to the final outcome of the story. . . Quickly… in case some don’t know about the cosmic alliance, this prophesy was understood and revealed, actually by the enemy, who posted their interpretation on the cover of the Economist Magazine in 2017! Here’s a picture of that cover:
The card the upper right shows the March 14, 2025 lunar blood eclipse in the tail of Leo (which actually hovers over Virgo). That image represents the triple lunar witness I mentioned above; But it wasn’t shown in the accurate spot so that we’d know if it’s the 2025 or 2026 blood moon events it was pointing to. In retrospect, it was pointing to first March 14, 2025 – the catalyst date when Russia, China and Iran met in Beijing over their nuclear coordination.

Vashti = Hagar and Ester = Sarah
“These things are being taken figuratively: The women represent two covenants. One covenant is from Mount Sinai and bears children who are to be slaves: This is Hagar. Now Hagar stands for Mount Sinai in Arabia (under the law) and corresponds to the present city of Jerusalem, because she is in slavery with her children. But the Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother. Be glad, barren woman, you who never bore a child; shout for joy and cry aloud, you who were never in labor; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband.” (Galatians 4: 24-26)

Since we’re under the ‘Purim umbrella’ I’ve been trying not to focus as precisely on every high watch date. There are just too many of them. (And, I have a hypothesis that Jesus scooped up the symbolism of all the important ones in His tarry.) I simply can’t study and write about them fast enough.
The entire scope has been an enormously high watch time. This could continue, for reasons I’ve written about, until Purim 2026 (2025 ADT), but at the very most until the 3rd temple of God is built and sacrifices and libations are resumed; For the most part, we need to be aware that we’re in an extremely high watch season and that He’s coming very, very soon.
At the rate things are pushing forward, the temple could be built and dedicated even within 2 months of what I’m now calling ‘the second Hanukah.’ I think the temple will go up so fast that it’ll make the world wobble.

The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet against Elam in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, the chief of their might. And upon Elam will I bring the four winds from the four quarters of heaven, and will scatter them toward all those winds; and there shall be no nation whither the outcasts of Elam shall not come. For I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before them that seek their life: and I will bring evil upon them, even my fierce anger, saith the Lord; and I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them: And I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from thence the king and the princes, saith the Lord.

Regarding the Jeremiah prophesy, if Israel bombs the Bushehr Plant, all the residents of Elam Iran will have to flee the radiation blowing in every direction with the wind. Regarding the Zechariah prophesy, dissolving flesh is known to be associated with nuclear explosions. (God’s restoration of Elam must be in the Millennial Kingdom of Jesus Christ.)
Now that the catalytic event’s been triggered, the rest will unfold when it unfolds:
What I call the ‘Purim umbrella’ for Jesus Christ to come gather His bride, extends at most until the restoration of God’s temple. The following is an excellent video, although I’ve come to see that the time window for the rapture extends much, further, if I hadn’t watched the Supernatural by Design videos below, I wouldn’t have known! Watchers who love Christs appearing don’t want to jump too far in the future, as it could cause us to miss the now.
*This Changes Everything!* The Purim Eclipse Will Be Huge…Supernatural by Design
One of those videos explains how the word translated as ‘twinkling’ aligns with a flash such as an great explosion and that the word for trumpet, translated a ‘trump’ in the KJV, is associated with war.
in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality. When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.” (1 Cor. 15:52-54)

If you’ve seen the videos . . .
. . . you know the triple blood moon witness sign is integrated into quite a few other rare cosmic alignments, all having to do with end times prophesy, involving Iran, national Israel and spiritual Israel/the Bride of Christ. It’s all associated with the true Story of Purim and what it foreshadows:
*Although the anniversary date I’m about to describe has passed, something very interesting happened on the day preceding it. And, whether or not I’m correct about the leap year, I think it could be good to know this:
At first this was just another high watch period . . .
August 23 (the 30th of Av) was the anniversary of the day that Moses turned around to descended from the mountaintop of Sinai, where he’d been with YHWH for 40 days, in order to bring the ketubah (marriage covenant) to the Israelites.
It’s the anniversary of the day preceding the marriage covenant with YHWH that was agreed to by the Israelites at the foot of Mt. Sinai in 1440 BCT. Yes, I really said the day ‘preceding’ because the anniversary of that day was the day ground telescopes saw something!
1.46 Glory of God, DOOR
So what if the anniversary of that day marked Jesus’ descent from the heavenly Mt. Zion, on His way back ‘down’ to Earth to gather His bride?
Something became visible to ground telescopes on that day, and as long at it remains in our solar system some watchers will continue to keep an eye on it.
An unidentified interstellar object, called
‘3I/ATLAS’
traveled toward Earth faster than any objectever seen.
And it was making its own light.
Although NASA uses the word ‘comet’,3I/ATLAS, has been unlike a comet, in that, from the beginning it didn’t show a tail, not until it passed Earth on its way out. Also, part of its glow precedes it; It was unusually aligned with the orbits of the planets, it was going way too fast, it has pulsated in never before seen ways and shined brighter than the sun when it passed behind yet slightly above it.
1.47 Glory of God, DOOR
3I/ATLAS passed closely by Jupiter in March ’26, but, this image shows its path as it was in August.
It was first observed by NASA’s robotic survey project Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS), on July 1. (Interestingly, that’s between the two Shavuot/Pentecost dates June 7-8 & July 6-7.) Its presence first became visible to ground telescopes, on August 23 due to its nearness and the rare ‘black moon’.
The sun has been acting very strangely ever since 3I/ATLAS passed behind it when it lit up and shined brighter that the sun. It’s conceivable that something was done to the sun in its close pass. Since then the sun has been acting very dangerously so perhaps God seeded the sun with something.
First week of April ’26 Update – The sun has been continuing to act extremely strangely. See Stephen Burns’ YT channel.
1.48 Glory of God, DOOR
Also, ome Christians have considered that AI/ATLAS may have been a ship, sent by God to released transport vessels for the bride of Christ somewhere in the vicinity of Earth. We don’t know, but around that time, I had a very amazing night vision: I was suspended in space – and a beautiful small, white, softly glowing, cube shaped ‘space-tabernacle’ with rounded edges, was suspended silently, about 200 feet or so in front of me. I believe Jesus was there in the form of beautiful, white, spiritually refreshing, divine living light that was strongly emanating from a square-like opening on one side of it.
In Greek myth, Atlas is a Titan condemned to hold up the heavens or sky for eternity.
But, satan always counterfeits God, adding deceptive twists, to detract from God’s glory.
. . . . . 3I/ATLAS?
What if ‘ 3 ‘ represents ‘trinity’ and ‘ I ‘ represents ‘the great I AM’ (YHWH)?
1.49 Glory of God, DOOR
3I/ATLAS means:
“Last Alert:
I the Triune God,
three persons in one,
the true atlas
who supports the world,
am on my way.”
(to rescue my bride)
3I/ATLAS is from God.
The King of kings brought a sword, that looks like a scepter. How do I know this? It has happened before and is recorded in the Bible.
A STAR RESEMBLING A SWORD AS AN OMEN TO THE DESTRUCTION OF JERUSALEM
God’s shown His heavenly sword twice before. The above video tells.
Isaiah 34 5-8
For my sword shall be bathed in heaven: behold, it shall come down upon Idumea, (Edom) and upon the people of my curse, to judgment. The sword of the Lord is filled with blood, it is made fat with fatness, and with the blood of lambs and goats, with the fat of the kidneys of rams: for the Lord hath a sacrifice in Bozrah, and a great slaughter in the land of Idumea. And the unicorns (any animal with a single horn) shall come down with them, and the bullocks with the bulls; and their land shall be soaked with blood, and their dust made fat with fatness. For it is the day of the Lord’s vengeance, and the year of recompenses for the controversy of Zion.
1.50 Glory of God, DOOR
What if Jesus doesn’t gather His Barley Harvest by any of these dates?
We’ll begin by taking an adjusted look at each of the high watch days that we studied last year.
Keep in mind that God’s Torah calendar years don’t begin in January:
Jesus Christ only promised He’d keep the Church of Philadelphia from the hour of trial/testing/temptation that’s going to come upon the whole world. No promise of a 7 year rescue intervalexists. It says HOUR!
The ‘Before the Final Seven Years’ Rapture Idea is Popular
I’m attracted to it too, but I think it’s dangerous. I think simply making that assumption, causes the majority of churches to, as a whole, not to really watch for our Lord and Savior’s return. Having said that; Based on my reading of Rev. 2-3, I think there are some individual members of the Rev. 2-3 churches who Jesus reprimanded, that are ‘secretly’ watching. The strictest dispensationist rational is that the rapture sets off the final 7 years rather than being aligned with the fourth seal/fourth horseman – which is the death of 1/4 of humanity. I am a dispensationist andI am pre-trib, (regarding the bride and the bridesmaids), despite that fact that I think the rapture can occur within Daniel’s 70th week, since we’re only promised to be kept from the ‘hour of trial’ and that doesn’t begin with the white horseman or the red horseman. The overlap could be the tarry or work the bride need to do on Earth while the church age is approaching it’s definitive end.
1.51 Glory of God, DOOR
But, I think ‘The Church Age’ is a human invented term. There was a 70 year transition from the time of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ until to God’s reinstatement of His covenant time in 490 year cycles, for His New Covenant people, including all Jews who’ve been saved, so it doesn’t have to be so simple.
But there’s at least one overlaps when the final 7 years begin for the Jews, , exactly on time, according to the Daniel 9:24 prophesy. That’s when the unrepentant Jews enter back into a covenant relationship with God Almighty for judgment, refining and God’s consummation. What does it overlap with? It overlaps with the final 7 years of the God’s covenant time as it was reinstated in 70 AD to accommodate the church, God’s new covenant people including the Jews who have accepted their Messiah. This overlapping timeline was prophesied by Daniel 9:27 (Septuagint) and turns out to encompass the New Covenant. (There even seems to be a possible ’30 day’ offset between the final week of God’s New Covenant’s covenant time vs Daniel’s 70th week (Dan. 9:24) Old Covenant’s covenant time.)
The Word of God NEVER promised that mature saints won’t be on earth when the early seals of the scroll are broken by our Savior, the Lamb of God.
Immediately before the Lamb of God takes the scroll from the hand of YHWH our Heavenly Father who sits on His throne, St. John saw the 24 elders of Rev. 5 break out in a praise song. They sang that the Lamb of God, with His blood, had purchased for God persons from every tribe and language and people and nation; They sang, ” You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth.”
1.52 Glory of God, DOOR
That’s why I strongly suspect that the seven blazing torches/lamps St. John saw in front of God’s throne, in Rev. 4, represent the complete spirit filled bride/church of Jesus Christ, the living members. In Rev. 1:20, Jesus said, “The mystery of the seven stars that you saw in my right hand and of the seven golden lamp stands is this: The seven stars are the angels (messengers) of the seven churches, and the seven lamp stands are the seven churches.”
Perhaps the spirit filled, light shining believers will still be persevering on the earth as Jesus Christ, the holy perfect Lamb of God, takes the scroll from His Father God Almighty’s hand; Perhaps as Jesus Christ begins releasing seals He’s also preparing the way to redeem them at the perfect moment. We can only guess why He’d delay, but He clearly more than implied that He’d tarry, but also that, when He’s ready, He’ll come very quickly.

Appointments with God are Dress Rehearsals
In the past it seemed to me to make most sense that Jesus Christ would gather His saints on a Torah prescribed holy convocation, because God’s harvests of souls are very important to Him and, because our Savior said, “I’ve not come to abolish the law, but to fulfill it,” and because He seemed to have fulfilled four of seven of them in perfect order with His first coming. But, after much study, some watchers in the community have come around, like me, to consider that without the temple of God actually standing, it might not be possible for the remaining three holy convocations to be fulfilled, not until it’s rebuilt.
The following is a review of the high watch intervals that many of watchers, including myself, focused on in 2024:
We began with the Spring holy convocations/appointed times starting with Nissan 1 (April 8-9 ’24 AD), which began on the day after the conclusion of The Great American Eclipse, which spelled out the Aleph & Tav messianic signature of Jesus Christ. It was a warning and it turned out to be the first day of the-70th-week-of-Daniel, which is the final week-of-years of God’s allotment for human rebellion. See Post:
Then we studied the harvest typology of Passover, Unleavened Bread and First Fruits! Without the excitement of the imminence of His return, going through the process of understanding all of God’s harvests of the earth would’ve been impossible.
The very interesting possibility of Pentecost/Shavuot 2024 came and went in 2024, but it’s still the appointed time that was, and is, loaded with the most Messianic Barley Bride Harvest symbolism! There’s a question about if it was completely fulfilled in the year of Christ’s ascension, because He wasn’t on or near the earth on the day He sent His Holy Spirit down. Some Bereans think that since Pentecost is a pilgrimage, and the Holy Spirit has yet to make the return trip to heaven, with the saints, that Pentecost couldn’t have been completely fulfilled. It’ll continues to be a high watch time for me in 2025. There’s always a possible one month delay for Spring to spring and for barley to ripen. But there’s also the tarry and the fact that Jesus said He’d come on a day we won’t expect. What will I be doing? I’ll be watching! Why? Jesus said WATCH!
There were two very interesting high watch intervals in late Spring/Summer. One is when ‘the bread meets the wine’. That’s the overlap of the wheat harvest, WHICH IS THE END OF THE GRAIN HARVESTS, with the grape harvest. For the Israelites, it was the time of marriages and even the ‘snatching of brides’ by the tribe of Benjamin! And of course, there was the 9th of Av, the day of disasters! What would more disastrous to the Israelite Jews than God taking His mostly gentile bride! Although, making them jealous turns out to be a very good thing for them.
1.55 Glory of God, DOOR
I think Jesus Christ wants us to get to know Him better by trekking through this entire adventurous process, at least those who are led by the spirit to take this type of journey!
He is Love and merciful, and ultimately He brings perfect justice. Vengeance belongs only to Him because He’s the only perfect. Eternal grace to those who believe that God gave Himself, in the person of His beloved Son/God the Son, and payed the full price of our unpayable eternal sin debt; And that He will adopt us into His holy eternal family. Then He’ll delight in sharing the mysteries of all truth with us, imparting complete knowledge and wisdom, the treasures of which are hidden in God the Father, the Holy Spirit and the Christ.
Then came Yom Teruah commonly called Feast of Trumpets upon which a major prophetic event occurred in 2024! (See posts 3, 5 & 8.)
Yom Teruah (Trumpets), with its many trumpet blows, seems to have been partially fulfilled in 2023 and again in 2024 with partial removals of the restrainer, as controlled by the the Lamb of God. In my opinion, He has broken the first and second seals from YHWH’s throne room by the time I’m writing this. It makes perfect sense based upon the major events that followed in both those years.
1.56 Glory of God, DOOR
This site definitely respects that the Holy Spirit has been working through saints to restrain the antichrist spirit on Earth. That includes restraining the Antichrist himself. But, I also think that the Holy Spirit restrains in other ways. Remember when God said to Zerubabbel that the second temple would be built not by might but by His Spirit. The seals on the scroll also restrain. I believe the Holy Spirit in involved with that as well, just in a different way. Revelation 4 makes a HUGE deal about Jesus Christ being the only one in the universe worthy to break them!
Yom Teruah didn’t turn out to be the day of the Open Door Harvest in 2024, so when it passed, AlephTav.blog refocused on Yom Kippur.
Glory to Almighty God in the Highest, Lord of the Ages!
Jesus is our High Priest and Sole the Atoner of our sins with His precious blood.
It’s now apparent that the October 2024 Day of Atonement wasn’t the appointed time of our gathering to our beloved Bridegroom, Redeemer, Savior of the world. The Day of Atonement was my first choice, because of its meaning; It’s His life blood that coversus. But, perhaps that was a private day between Him and His/our Heavenly Father. I’ll pray for more understanding.
1.57 Glory of God, DOOR
Sukkot was the next appointed time interval:
Sukkot, also called the Feast of Tabernacles, is the 7 + 1 day pilgrimage appointed time/holy convocation. It was the one, mentioned in the Book of Acts that Jesus Christ didn’t attend at first, because the Pharisees and Sanhedrin were planning to kill Him. Jesus tarried, then He attended incognito at first, but halfway through He began teaching in the temple courts. On the greatest and last day of Sukkot, Hoshana Rabbah, Jesus gave these words: “Let anyone who’s thirsty come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.”
Sukkot, is loaded with the most harvest symbolism and has the literal ‘last trumpet’ blow of the year on God’s Torah calendar! There have been 21 trumpet blows practiced traditionally. It makes sense because the last day of Sukkot is 21 days from Feast of Trumpets (inclusive counting). It’s interesting that it matches the number of the seals + trumpets + bowls, in the Book of Revelation that lead up to the final Battle of Armageddon! Torah Law requires trumpet blows on Sukkot, but they’re only over sacrifices.
Since there’s neither a temple of God nor animal sacrifices for God right now why did we watch? Well . . . we were still excited about the evidence for our Lord and Savior’s return in 2024, and so didn’t want to overlook any possible appointed days in 2024, especially those with huge harvest, trumpet, messianic even tarrying’ typology. It might’ve been the day our Lord and Savior came for us; We knew we didn’t know everything and didn’t want to shut ‘our doors’ on that possibility in case it was THE DOOR.
1.58 Glory of God, DOOR
Another reason Sukkot is especially interesting was because: It’s a pilgrimage! The harpatzo/rapture can be seen as a leg of a pilgrimage. The mysterious Open Door Harvested Saints, the Tribulation Saints and most likely also the saints from the Olivet Harvest will make a journey from Earth to heaven, but will return to Earth with Christ. At that time, on the return leg of the ultimate pilgrimage, He’ll be in His Awesome Glory!
What purpose will the Levitical Priesthood actually serve when Third Temple is built?
One might wonder how we could’ve even considered ‘Sukkot’ when the Day of Atonement 2024 hadn’t yet been fulfilled? I’m not getting deeply into it here, but there’s the possibility that Jesus Christ did partially fulfill Yom Kippur when He atoned for our sins with His blood in 31 AD. Some scholars think Jesus sprinkled his blood on the heavenly Ark of the Covenant after His ascension to the heavenly Zion. But, since the reported discovery of the Ark of the Covenant in a cave immediately below where Jesus Christ was crucified at Golgotha, other saints believe that His holy blood dripped down through the rocks and landed on the Mercy Seat during His crucifixion.
1.59 Glory of God, DOOR
So then why not completely fulfilled? That could only be because God’s plan isn’t completely fulfilled until at least 1/3 of the Jews are atoned for; God must fulfill His promise to Abraham. Daniel 9:27, in the Old Greek, makes it clear that the Old Covenant isn’t consummated until just before the sacrifices and oblations in the 3rd temple are stopped by the Beast.
Finally, there’s also the special 8th day of Sukkot, ‘Shemini Atzeret’ an extension for the purpose of lingering, because it’s so lovely. One day we will linger with our Lord during this beautiful outdoor memorial.
All along we learned about the amazing Messianic typologies and all these will again be high watches in 2025.
If we’re still here.
Anniversary of Noah’s Ark
After the season of High Holy Days passed. Watchers, including myself, turned our focus on the anniversary of the day God closed the door of Noah’s Ark, and seven days before that, because Jesus Christ is the Ark and He is also The Door.
PS –
TheRed heifer ashes are necessary to purify the 3rd masonry temple of God.
A special focus on the Tribulation Saints of the Sixth Seal and how it lead to understanding all the harvests.
The sixth seal rapture timing viewpoint has been the most neglected viewpoint for those looking to prove just one harvest event, as I used to. It seemed to be the most direct conclusion to come to when reading the Bible without over complicating it. But, upon closer inspection, I discovered even the sixth seal perspective was flawed. The ‘flaw’ seemed to be partially reconcilable by leaning preferentially on St. Paul’s greater enlightenment, when necessary, but it turns out to be much more involved than that:
The Crux of the Sixth Seal
Context of the fourth and fifth seals:
A quarter of humanity will perish at the fourth seal, then the fifth seal show martyrs crying out for eternal justice under God, YHWH, our Holy Father’s alter . . .
When comparing parallel passages in the synoptic gospels to the very similar words in the Book of Revelation at the opening of the sixth seal, well . . . it was, at one time, mind boggling to me that I’d rarely heard the sixth seal rapture mentioned in sermons or by most high profile Bible commentators.
2.1 Glory God Beyond
Realizing through studying, that the sixth seal rapture seemed to have the best Biblical support, I originally began making a few preps, to survive the ‘great tribulation’ (not God’s wrath which is the greatest tribulation) leading up to the sixth seal. They were mainly spiritual, but there were also a few physical preps, such as starting to learn how to fish, growing a garden and stocking up on coffee and my medicine to help me get by and to have extra resources to help others, especially Christians, through what I deduced would be about a year long trial.
But, with further study and prayer, I began to realize, and have faith, that there was an earlier harvest of the bride of Christ and that some of the preps I was making may end up being very useful to tribulation saints. And I enjoyed continuing to make a few preps for them, while I changed my focus to understanding how to be Christ’s bride. I found out that some watchers were making ‘left behind’ kits; So I joined them in trying to seek out special individuals to whom the Lord might want certain things to go. (Easier said than done!) Data is especially important since Daniel 7:25 states that the Beast is going to try, to eliminate calendrical knowledge by changing the ‘times and laws’. AI has already been adulterating online Bibles. Woe to those who can’t tell the difference! The Bible warns about ‘a dessert of the WORD.’
2.2 Glory God Beyond
Preparing a ‘time capsule’ of sorts for the left behind:
I had in mind, Jesus Christ’s Open Door for the Church of Philadelphia; I was hoping and praying to be invited through His open door, which is Jesus Himself.
John 10: 9-11 I (Jesus) am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep.”
Eventually that idea took over for me, but it wasn’t possible until I fully understood that the bad translations of 2 Thessalonians 2: 1-3 had misled me into thinking that the bride/true church would not be redeemed until after the Antichrist sits in the holy place. See post:
I’ve whittled that difficult topic down to its bare basics, but the link to the ‘Soothkeep’ study is better than pure gold! If your a big ‘physical survival’ prepper, don’t miss it! If the Bible itself seems to be telling you that there’s no earlier rescue, I think you’d be doing your self a great disservice to not watch it.
2.3 Glory God Beyond
How Does Revelation’s Sixth Seal Line up with the Olivet Discourse Harvest?
2.4 Glory God Beyond
Although the cosmic signs line up, in Daniel’s 70th week there will be other very impressive earthquakes that will shake Earth and cosmic events that involve the sun, the moon and even the stars, before the Millennium begins; All of those will be expected to frighten the unsaved people on earth, but interestingly, that’s not actually mentioned in Matt. 24 and Mark 13, and the ‘redemption of the elect’ isn’t mentioned in Rev. 6.
Regarding the synoptic gospels. It’s useful to remember that there are three of them, but only one Olivet Discourse by Jesus Christ, therefore it’s been recorded from three different vantage points, which isn’t the same as three different prophesies lining up, although many Bereans have a very interesting hypothesis that each of them is focusing on a different audience.
The Revelation 6: 12-17 verses dazzled me . . .
. . . so much that it blinded me when the frightened people said, “Hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! For the great day of Their wrath has come, and who can withstand it?” Because I was blinded, I fully equated it with the Olivet Discourse when it said, . . . the Son of Man coming in the clouds with power and great glory.
2.5 Glory God Beyond
Here’s what I overlooked:
They can’t be referring to the same event because the Olivet Discourse clearly describes the Son of Man coming after the greatest tribulation on Earth while Rev. 6 says “the great day of their wrath has come” (it was just beginning).
Compare it to the verses in the Synoptic Gospels:
Olivet Discourse – Matt. 24:21,“For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now—and never to be equaled again.”(Only after this, in verse 29 the signs in the cosmos were mentioned.)
Olivet Discourse – Mark 13: 19-20, “because those will be days of distress unequaled from the beginning, when God created the world, until now—and never to be equaled again. If the Lord had not cut short those days, no one would survive. But for the sake of the elect, whom he has chosen, he has shortened them.” (Only after the Jews see the A.O.D. and flee are the signs in the cosmos mentioned in verse 24.)
Olivet Discourse – Luke 21:22, “For these are the days of vengeance, to fulfill all that is written.”(Only in verse 25 are the signs in the cosmos mentioned.)
2.6 Glory God Beyond
There’s more proof below at mark 2.15; But one more thing here: No throne of God the Father appearing in the heavenlies to everybody on Earth was mentioned in the Olivet Discourse. What could be more impressive than God’s Almighty’s throne appearing to all humanity from the heavens above? And what could be more unlikely that Jesus Christ forgetting to mention that?
So, they’re simply not the same harvest!
We shouldn’t be too alarmed, even because Peter quoted Joel 2 at Pentecost, after there’d been a darkening of the sun in the daytime, from noon to 3 PM, on the day of Jesus’ crucifixion in conjunction with a great earthquake in Jerusalem, and there were partial and full blood moons in Passover month for at least three years in a row starting in 31 AD..
2.7 Glory God Beyond
The rest of the explanation of why the Sixth Seal and Olivet Harvests are different, follow below, mainly at mark 2.15, 2.20, 2.26 and 2.28. After some preliminaries are covered first:
Three Harvests, each with three parts
The First Fruits of the Barley Harvest could also be the captives Jesus removed from Hell, the ‘Bosom of Abraham’, when “He took captivity captive.”And, my interpretation of the two grape harvests of Rev. 14, is that only the second one is the grapes of wrath.
2.8 Glory God Beyond
The Three Harvest Model makes the most sense, and the Sixth Seal Harvest, which is the Wheat Harvest of the Tribulation Saints, is the middle and by far the largest one.
But each harvest has three parts . . .
. . . and since the Sixth Seal Wheat Harvest Saints follow the Fifth Seal martyrs of the Barley Harvest, I want to talk about martyrs first:
The Gleanings are Martyrs
Why does God Almighty pays such serious attention, in Leviticus 27, to what’s holy, what’s set apart, who they’re set apart to and their redeemablity?
2.9 Glory God Beyond
Now if the first-fruits are holy, so is the whole batch. And if the root is holy, so are the branches. (Romans 11:16)
Not Everything that’s Set Apart is Set Apart to God:
Torah Law requires the corners of harvestable fields to be set apart, given over to the stranger and the poor, that they may glean. The poor and the strangers become the new owners of the gleanings. Nevertheless, the whole field, including its corners, will have become holy from the time that the first-fruits sheaf, harvested from that particular field was waved by a priest in front of God at the temple.
A great visual, thanks to Jaco of ‘God’s Roadmap to the End’
2.10 Glory God Beyond
The first fruits belong to God, the owner’s portion belongs to the owner, and the gleanings belong to the stranger and the poor.
And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not make clean riddance of the corners of thy field when thou reapest, neither shalt thou gather any gleaning of thy harvest; thou shalt leave them unto the poor, and to the stranger: I am the Lord your God. (Leviticus 23:22)
Gleanings are given over to the stranger and the poor. Nothing made holy by God can be redeemed back to God after it was given toanother owner, except by death. The Book of Leviticus, can be confusing at first in that many, but not all things can be redeemed from God, such as the first born of every human and animal, which is done by the involved party paying a price to God, which is determined by Torah Law.
But, that’s different than God redeeming a holy thing or person back to himself after it’s been given over to another owner! And it seems to explain why all the gleanings of all the spirit/soul harvests are martyred.
2.11 Glory God Beyond
Talking about Martyrs – a note on the Two Witnesses
My hand drawn chart above shows the Two Witnesses to be the gleanings of the Wheat Harvest. I may be wrong, but I don’t think that the souls who’ll be the gleanings of any harvest, have less faith. I think martyrs have a lot of faith. And that makes the Two Witnesses a perfect fit to be the gleanings of the Wheat Harvest. Many speculate that the Two Witnesses might be Enoch and Elijah. That would make it clear why God took them from Earth, long ago, before they died. Having been two of the most faithful men who ever lived, they’d certainly return to Earth to complete their lives in the flesh anytime God wishes them to, and to become martyrs. It’s all for God’s glory. Whoever the Two Witnesses are, they’ll have a most extraordinary 3.5 yr. mission! I think they could be here witnessing right now, but without yet having needed to use their Moses/Elijah-like Holy Spirit powers, at least not in an obvious way that the whole world has noticed.
I think the fact that they’re described as ‘ the two lamp stands means they’ll be witnessing both to Jews and Christians.
In post 15.Awesome Testimonies, I’ve started a list of who they might be, a candidate list among those who are here now, already witnessing. As soon as they begin demonstrating their powers, the attention of the whole world will be on them, especially toward the end of their 3.5 year ministry. When they’re resurrected and raptured, I expect most people will see it on their devices, which will be the catalyst for the salvation of many souls, including most of the 1/3 remnant of the Jews.
Below is a verse stating that a man dedicated or devoted to God must not be sold or redeemed, but shall be put to death.
Leviticus 27 28-29 “Notwithstanding no devoted thing, that a man shall devote unto the Lord of all that he hath, both of man and beast, and of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed: every devoted thing is most holy unto the Lord. None devoted, which shall be devoted of men, shall be redeemed; but shall surely be put to death.”
It’s my understanding that the word ‘devoted’ or ‘dedicated’ has the same meaning as made holy or sacred, which means that Lev. 27 applies to the gleanings. Whole fields were dedicated to God through the first fruits offering, but God commanded the corners, although still holy to God, to be given over to another owner, the poor and the stranger. Even though God commands it, it’s the owner who must do it. Notice they were not sold or redeemed, but were only ‘given.’
Certain Israelites were dedicated to God even before being born.
Under Torah law, all firstborn children of the Israelites were holy to God. Originally, the first born sons of the Israelites were to be set apart as priests of God spending their lives working in the tabernacle. . .

But, the sons of Levi replaced the first born males, because the Levites were the only tribe that didn’t worship of the golden calf in the dessert of Sinai.
But, the first born sons had already been dedicated to God, so God allowed them to be redeemed for a price by their parents. Yet they remained holy to God.
A similar thing took place with firstborn animals. They could be redeemed from God for a price, which was used to support the Old Covenant temple/tabernacle functions. If the new owner of the redeemed animal wanted to give it back to God after that, they could only do so by putting it to death.
Martyrdom is a sensitive topic . . .
. . . so, I’ve provided links below for a well documented course on it by ‘God’s Road Map to the End.’ It explains the hows and whys of the three part of harvests, their first-fruits, owners portion and gleanings: (If You Tube takes it down try Telegram to get uncensored content.)(On some of the details Jaco’s speculating, especially the part where he thinks satan will break God’s harvest laws and therefore will be required to give back to God those souls who took the mark-of-the-beast before it was legal for him to give it out!) Woah! Although it’s true that satan’s not legally allowed to gather the gleanings of any harvest until they’re legally given over to the world, after Jesus gathers His main harvest, absolutely no one will live in God Almighty’s Holy Perfect Kingdom, the New Jerusalem in the New Universe, who ‘s not covered by the blood of Jesus Christ! I don’t know where people who are taken illegally by satan will go. The Bible simply does not say, although apparently the new universe has an ‘outer part’ … I’m not going to speculate.
Jesus Christ will, very soon, take His own portion of the Barley Harvest, the Open Door Harvest of Rev. 3:8 and the gleanings/martyrs of the Barley Harvest will follow.
Since I first published this post in August of 2023, watchers have become certain..
PURIM Since early 2025 AD, watchers have begun observing the whole time interval ‘under the umbrella’ or ‘in the scope’ covering by the meaning of the Purim holiday, which is the prophesy of the entire Book of Ester. It’s about how God the Father, Jesus Christ and the bride of Christ all work together to save the ultimate remnant of Israel. This important topic is explained in: 1.

Back to why the Rev. Sixth Seal Harvest can’t be the Olivet Discourse Harvest:
After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands.
Revelation 7:9
The Olivet Harvest is not like the Barley and Wheat Harvests in that it’s not for every nation, tribe, people and language. It’s the harvest that’s overwhelmingly for the Jews. There’s a full proof study in post:
Increased Biblical knowledge leads us to let go of a few cherished simpler explanations.
Biblical knowledge has been increasing dramatically, and through this learning process many of us, (myself along with my family in Christ, both locally and in various online watcher communities) have come to understand from scripture, that there are three different crops of saints, each with three parts.
This viewpoint fits best when the Book of Revelation is understood to bewell ordered and chronological.
2.17 Glory God Beyond
Contrary to what many teach, I think the Book of Revelation is an orderly book in the sense that, when zooming out, it’s mostly chronological, despite the fact that it contains a huge parenthetical section and some overlaps. I’ll try to clarify:
Example of a forward overlap; the chain of events released when Jesus breaks the first, second and third seals (horsemen) overlap each other combining to bring about the death of a quarter of humanity at the fourth seal.
Backward overlaps arecommon to storytelling: To tell a complex story people have to consistently ‘go back’ and ‘pick up threads’ that were left off, because it’s impossible to forward relate everything at the same time.
It seems that understanding how the timing of the Open Door Harvest juxtaposes with the Lamb of God receiving the scroll, requires us to perceive the timing of these events more flexibly. We can assign Christ’s tarry to being at the midnight cry or midnight potent: https://alephtav.blog/2024/09/01/3-the-cry/ about ‘6 months before the end of the church age’ (April 8, ’24 AD). In such case, the actual day upon which the Open Door Harvest will occur, assuming the interim will used for the bride of Christ to work hard to help ready the bridesmaids, martyrs and tribulation saints for their respective roles.
2.18 Glory God Beyond
Most believers have been taught to think Christ’s bride must be physically in God’s throne room before the Lamb of God receives the scroll from Father God’s. But, the 24 elders can’t be the bride, as the 24 elders sang a song to praise the Lamb of God for redeeming ‘them’ with His blood. Who’s ‘them’? What else is in the throne room? Lets consider the 7 blazing lamp stands/torches in the throne room of God, which St. John saw before the Lamb of God took the scroll from the hand of His Father YHWH.
The song that the 24 ‘elders’ sang, referred to ‘them,’ those who were redeemed by Christ’s blood. . . How are ‘they’ represented in God’s throne room?
The following is the Greek word for ‘they.’ Almost every translation gets it right but both King James versions get it wrong by translating it as ‘us.’
them {into} αὐτοὺς (autous) Personal / Possessive Pronoun – Accusative Masculine 3rd Person Plural Strong’s 846: He, she, it, they, them, same. From the particle au; the reflexive pronoun self, used of the third person, and of the other persons.
Well then; How is Christ’s bride represented in God’s throne room until she arrives there herself? It’s the lamp stands of course! They must represent the condition of Christ’s bride, as she still remains on Earth, like a barometer in which the flames indicate her state of readiness.
The Menorah Served Practically the Same Purpose in God’s Old Covenant Temple.
It’s recorded in Talmud . . .
. . . that from the time of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, the menorah constantly blew out for 40yrs. . . until the temple was destroyed. The earthly temple was a reflection of God’s heavenly temple – They’re linked, meaning there was also a seven branched menorah in God’s throne room.
So, St. John saw the seven fold spirit of the New Covenant betrothal relationship, blazing in God’s throne room, just a few verses after he saw Jesus walking among the 7 lamp stands in his earthly vision on the Island of Patmos. Unless the bride of Christ isn’t going to have bodies, it seems that if she were already in God’s throne room physically when the 14 elders burst into the song, that she’d be described, as the tribulation saints were in Rev. 7, as standing in God’s throne room, wearing white robes, (Rev. 7: 9-17) except with crowns. and possibly without the palm branches.
It must be that the act of seeing the blazes on the 7 lamp stands simultaneously reach their glorious fullness, indicated Christ’s bride’s readiness to all those who were present; (Compare to Rev. 2-3 when Jesus warned two of the churches that He will remove their lamp stands if they don’t repent.) And that caused the 24 elders to burst into their unique song of praise!
2.19 Glory God Beyond
7 Full Blazes . . .
. . . each of the 7 church types will have Holy Spirit Anointed members, who will be burning forth the light of truth for the Lord! Those are the saints who’ll be consuming Him, THE WORD, and shining it forth – being the light of the world. My hypothesis is: That’s what convinces Father God to hand the scroll to Jesus. There can’t be a Kingdom with only a King and a planet. A King requires subjects; Jesus now has His first, closest and most passionate large group of subjects – His loyal bride and her bridesmaids; Now His Kingdom can begin to move forward. The scroll is the Deed to Earth, and it’s time for Him to begin breaking the seals in order to bring it forth! We can celebrate that now because it’s happening now! We’ll miss that opportunity if we think we must wait until we arrive in His throne room. (In my opinion)
Speculation: Some of the Elders May be From the Hall of Faith of Hebrews 11
The harvest chart,above at mark 2.7, shows the 24 elders as the first-fruits of God’s Barley Harvest of souls. They might be those who ‘came up’ out of their graves right after Jesus Christ died on the cross and who, after Jesus was resurrected, came to life and went to Jerusalem to be seen by many. The other possibility: The 24 elders are the spirit-souls who Jesus Christ released from captivity in Hades some of whom may be among the heroes from the Hebrews 11 Hall of Faith, over a third of whom were not Israelites. It would make sense since the Barley Harvest is for all nations just like the Wheat Harvest.
2.20 Glory God Beyond
Again, it’s the fruit or Good Grape Harvest that’s mostly exclusive to the Jews.
2.21 Glory God Beyond
Although they weren’t mentioned in Hebrews 11, I wonder is some of the sons of Zadok, were among those in Abraham’s bosom who will be represented among the 24 elders.
. . . are not merely rituals, they’re appointments or meetings with God Almighty.
The First Fruits appointed time of the barley harvest, is when every field owner brings a sheaf or ‘omer’ with ripening barley ears to the temple. (A sheaf is a quantity that can be carried by one person if bundled.) At the temple, a priest will wave it in a special way before God, burn part of it and save part of it to eat later. He’ll also sacrifices a flawless lamb as a burnt offering, along with a wheat flour-oil mixture and wine. The specific timing for First Fruits given in Leviticus 23. It’s the day after the first Sabbath following Passover. Only after First Fruits could God’s people harvest their own portion:
2.22 Glory God Beyond
Agricultural Harvests are Symbolic of Harvests of Souls
At the appointed time of First-Fruits of the barley harvest, in the year of Jesus Christ’s resurrection, Jesus brought a ‘sheaf of souls’ to His Father in heaven. The 24 elders are that sheaf. No one appears before God the Father empty handed, not even God the Son.
Jesus said, “Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. Go instead to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.” (John 20:17)
Could the Open Door Harvest be a relatively discreet harvest?
Did Jesus camouflage its existence – making it difficult to distinguish from the Wheat Harvest – because of satan? Especially since the owner’s portion of the Barley Harvest seems to be His bride? Satan, although on the one hand he can’t wait until she’s gone, he also desperately tries to prevent as many saints as possible from being part of her, and thus from being kept from the hour of trial that’s going to come upon the whole world; He’s most jealous of the bridegroom.
2.23 Glory God Beyond
I don’t even know for sure if the Open Door Harvest necessarily has to be a harpatzo (rapture). St. John got to the throne room of God without being raptured. He was taken, in the spirit, up to heaven through an ‘open door’ right after he wrote about the Church of Philadelphia. It sounds like a big clue. The bride of Christ must get to heaven before the gleanings (fifth seal martyrs) because the gleanings can’t be legally gathered to heaven before her. That’s Levitical law: No gleaning can be harvested until the owner’s portion of the harvest has been fulfilled. But, St. John never described a snatching up, only God’s voice sounding like a trumpet and an Open Door.
Final Questions: What about the dead? Is there even a dead part of the bride? Or did God plan it so that those who were to become His bride would all be on Earth at the end when there’s a population of 8 billion? But if there are some of the bride among the dead, then all those who’ve ‘fallen asleep as part of the bride of Christ must get resurrected; Admittedly that does look just like the Pauline rapture scenario. Enoch was raptured and so was Elijah; The two witnesses will be also. There very well could be a rapture of the bride and then a rapture of the tribulation saints.
On a related note regarding Rev. 7 10-14: St. John saw those who came out of the great tribulation standing before the throne of God. Does that only include all the people since the crucifixion who turned to Christ, but only after going through some kind great tribulation before they came to faith? If so, wouldn’t it necessarily mean that those who sincerely believed without ever ‘requiring the tribulum’, would be resurrected prior to that, with the bride through the Open Door Harvest?
2.24 Glory God Beyond
The Three Harvests of Saints Interpretation would be broken if the events of the seals were to the end of Daniel’s 70th Week.
Despite the fact that extending the seals can at first appear to harmonize part of the Book of Revelation with part of the Olivet Discourse, it creates more serious problems.
2.25 Glory God Beyond
Context, the Sixth Seal: Revelation 6: 15-17
Then the kings of the earth, the princes, the generals, the rich, the mighty, and everyone else, both slave and free, hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains. They called to the mountains and the rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! For the great day of their wrath has come, and who can withstand it?”
Rev. 6: 15-17
The Super Rich’s Secret Doomsday Bunkers | WHILE THE REST OF US DIE
So, as you can see, in order to believe that the ‘sixth seal’ extends all the way through to the very end of the fulfillment of the wrath of God Almighty, one would have to believe that it makes sense for those hiding from God to shout “the great day of their wrath has come” after having just gone through the seven trumpet judgments!
The sixth seal is also when four angels restrain the release of God’s Trumpet Judgements until 144,000 are protectively sealed for their mission by an angel with the seal of the living God.
2.26 Glory God Beyond
Why would they suddenly need that protection if many harmful judgements had already been released?
2.27 Glory God Beyond
The Tribulation Saints of the Sixth Seal
After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands,and crying out with a loud voice, “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!” And all the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God,saying, “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God forever and ever! Amen.” Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, “Who are these, clothed in white robes, and from where have they come?” I said to him, “Sir, you know.” And he said to me, “These are the ones coming out of the great tribulation. They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
Revelation 7 9-14
2.28 Glory God Beyond
Since there are otherwise excellent Bible expositors who embrace the extension of the contents the sixth seal all the way to the very end of the seventh year, I must point out that what you see above in the Rev. 7 passage is quite unlike the Daniel 12:2 resurrection https://ref.ly/Da12, which refers only to Daniel’s people, the Jews in which many will awake from the dust of the earth.. In comparison, the sixth seal passage above refers explicitly to all nations, tribes, peoples and languages.
There were different ways to put the pieces of the multi-harvest puzzle together;
But, because this site holds to God’s 6,000 yr. (Covenant years) plan for mankind, (slightly different according to human calendars) followed by the Millennial Kingdom of Jesus Christ, the possibilities are narrowing rapidly.
For a great study on God’s special reckoning of time – in and out of covenant:
This very important event may have been the ‘midnight cry’ of the coming of Jesus Christ from the Parable of the 10 Virgins, Matt. 25 1-8, because it alerted those who were already awake, Christ’s bride, but may have also awakened believers who were asleep.
. . . Then all the virgins arose, and prepared their lamps. But those foolish ones said to the wise, Give to us from your oil; for, behold, our lamps are gone out. But the wise ones answered them, saying, Lest it should not suffice for us and for you; but go to those who sell, and buy for you. And while they were gone to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were prepared entered with him into the house of festivity, and the gate was shut. At last came also those other virgins, saying, Our Lord, our Lord, open to us! But he answered and said to them, Assuredly I tell you, I know you not. Matt. 25 1-8 Peshitta
If the SDG 2030 Agenda was the ‘Midnight Cry’ itself, and I think it is, that indicates that the Open Door Harvest of Jesus Christ for the bride of Christ, will also be for the wise bridesmaids. Rev. 3: 8-10.
I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name. .I will make those who are of the synagogue of Satan, who claim to be Jews though they are not, but are liars—I will make them come and fall down at your feet and acknowledge that I have loved you. .Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come on the whole world to test the inhabitants of the earth. (Rev. 3: 8-10)
The First Seal of the Deed to the Earth
There’s good reason to believe that HIS MIDNIGHT CRY went out, when Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God, removed ‘the first restraining seal’ of the scroll, the Deed to the Earth.
As Jesus Christ broke the first seal of the scroll, trumpets blew and the alarming thing that followed, effecting the whole earth, was the adoption of the UN SDG 2030 Agenda, for 7 accelerated years! (The SDG’s are based King Charles III’s COPS see below)
It was sounded off by the Rabbinical Feast of Trumpets on Sept 16th and 17th; Their trumpets were actually blasted on Sept. 17, 2023. The SDG four day double-event was a special part of the greater 78th convening of the UN in New York.
Yom Teruah (Feast of Trumpets) is one of God’s 7 yearly Torah appointed times.
As Rabbinical Jews sounded trumpets in Jerusalem and across the world on Sept 17, the first part of the two part gathering got serious, they called it Opening Plenary: Acceleration.The Sept. 16-17, SDG Action Weekendwas immediately followed by the Sept. 18-19 SDG 2030 Summit. The special focus on the SDG 2030 Agenda took 4 days in total concluding with 193 nations including Israel, US, UK, Russia, Iran and Turkey aligning to the SDG 2030 Agenda.No vote or signage was required; It was called ‘unanimous adoption.’
It was a strengthening of the preexisting Paris Agreement for an additional, accelerated 7 years, until in Autumn of 2030. All ancient Biblical prophesies about the end of this age conclude at or near the end of that year-long interval. (See post 4.)
3.1 Cry, Glory God Beyond
21 days later, the Hamas Massacre took place.
The number
21
is highly symbolic in the Bible.
And within a year, the whole world was talking about WW3!
By my reasoning, Sept 17-19 2023 AD marked the wake up call that God Almighty gave believers as a six month long heads up to prepare for the 70th week of Daniel to begin. I’ve thought, pretty consistently, from the beginning of my thinking about this, that it also marked the release of the white horseman of the apocalypse. That’s something I’ve written about (see post 14, and then post 13.) But today, on May 29 ’26 AD, I just found what appears to be more strong evidence that this is true.
Since the only other persistently interesting possibility for the date of the release of the white horseman, that has impressed me, was the date of the coronation on King Charles III on May 6 ’23 AD, which is only 134 days before the trumpets were blown and 136 days before the SDG 2030 Agenda alignment was adopted. I decided to look up those numbers in Strong’s concordance!
This video shows cosmological evidence for Jesus having the released the white horseman in 2023: Two Leaders, Two Eclipses And The Story of Esther – Why the 4/20/2023 Eclipse Will Change Everything https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OiqzJpGLHQo
Now the full impact of the words that these numbers identify will only deeply effect those who really understand that: The moment God hands the scroll to the Lamb of God is the first of the final 3 or 4 climaxes of all time, on the world stage! Here’s the verse that shows the gravitas/glory of the moment:
Then I saw a scroll in the right hand of the one seated on the throne. It had writing on the front and the back, and it was sealed with seven seals. .I saw a powerful angel, who proclaimed in a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the scroll and break its seals?” .But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth could open the scroll or look inside it. .So I began to weep and weep, because no one was found worthy to open the scroll or to look inside it. .Then one of the elders said to me, “Don’t weep. Look! The Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has emerged victorious so that he can open the scroll and its seven seals.”(Rev. 5: 1-5 – St. John in God’s throne room)
In the Hebrew Strongs concordance, the numbers 134 and 135 mean אֶדֶן eden: Delight, Pleasure and אֲדֹנָי Adonay: Lord, Master (a main title used for God) respectively! {The joy of the Lord in His being found to be the only one worthy in the universe, and to finally begin to release the restrainer, seal by seal and to gather His bride!}
In the Koine Greek Strongs, the numbers 134 and 135 mean αἰνέω aineó: To praise, to extol, to commend and αἶνος ainos: Praise, hymn! THE VERY NEXT VERSE INTRODUCES THE PRAISES OF ALL THE LIVING FOR JESUS CHRIST AND THE SONGS SUNG BY THE ELDERS!
6 Then, in between the throne and the four living creatures and among the elders, I saw a Lamb, standing as if it had been slain. It had seven horns and seven eyes, which are God’s seven spirits, sent out into the whole earth. 7 He came forward and took the scroll from the right hand of the one seated on the throne. 8 When he took the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each held a harp and gold bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. 9 They took up a new song, saying,
“You are worthy to take the scroll and open its seals, because you were slain, and by your blood you purchased for God persons from every tribe, language, people, and nation. 10 You made them a kingdom and priests to our God, and they will rule on earth.”
11 Then I looked, and I heard the sound of many angels surrounding the throne, the living creatures, and the elders. They numbered in the millions—thousands upon thousands. 12 They said in a loud voice,
“Worthy is the slaughtered Lamb to receive power, wealth, wisdom, and might, and honor, glory, and blessing.”
13 And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea—I heard everything everywhere say,
“Blessing, honor, glory, and power belong to the one seated on the throne and to the Lamb forever and always.”
14 Then the four living creatures said, “Amen,” and the elders fell down and worshipped.
On top of all of that, I did a little fun research on the fact that a day for the Lord is like a 1,000 years for us. If that’s literal, I was curious about, . . . If it takes one second for Jesus to break a seal of the scroll in heaven according to how time passes there, how much time will pass on Earth while he does that? Interestingly, I came up with 4 days! Well, the SDG Action Weekend which overlapped with Yom Teruah /Feast of Trumpets was two days long and the SDG Summit was the two days following it! Woah!
3.2 Cry, Glory God Beyond
This post will now attempt to make clear certain things about the world’s agenda.
Lets start by reading this quote from an article by Muckraker: It seems to be where the Georgia Guidestones perspective came from.
The Club Of Rome’s Plan for Mass Human Depopulation
At the heart of Agenda 2030 are the 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs). These SDGs, if implemented successfully, can only result in the depopulation of humanity. The goals include: reducing consumption, limiting and eventually ending the use of fossil fuels (the lifeblood of human civilization today), promoting LGBTQ sexual orientations (these people most likely will not or cannot have children of their own, an implicit form of birth control), and establishing a world socialist state. Socialism (of the communistic variety) has killed more people over the last 100 years than all of the major wars in the same time span). The United Nations and associated organizations are proceeding full steam ahead with the implementation of this agenda.
Powerful entities are working around the clock to eliminate the majority of the world’s population. Bill Gates is funding technology to block out the sun, the World Economic Forum is encouraging people to eat bugs instead of meat, food processing plants are being blown up, and despite the fact that the COVID-19 lock downs killed millions of people across the globe, the imposition of climate lock downs appears to be on the horizon.” There’s too much here and I dare not make a list. See post 22.
3.3 Cry, Glory God Beyond
After Jesus Christ Breaks the First Seal
Rev. 6:2 So I looked and saw a white horse, and its rider held a bow. And he was given a crown [στέφανος (stephanos – a garland, a crown of achievement)], and he rode out to overcome and conquer.
A non-militant rider on the ‘white’ horse that symbolizes false peace, advances behind the scenes. He is the antichrist to be. And he’s most likely king Charles III. (See enormous evidence in post 14.) The Green Horizon Summit in 2020 is tightly related to the SDG 2030 Agenda. See how he was wearing a virtual stephanos crown? The halo represents the 17 goals of the Paris Agreement and the Paris Agreement pt. 2, which is the SDG 2030 Agenda.
3.4 Cry, Glory God Beyond
King Charles has been the chief force behind The Great Reset. The great merchants of Earth and the powers that be, are using climate as an excuse to take over the world. It’ll be enforced with artificial intelligence,transhumanism, digital ID and the mark-of-the-beast, among other things.
All of that’s being supported by the weight of the Roman Catholic ‘universal false’ church and the WEF. See posts:
Paris Olympics Symbolically Parades Rider of the White Horse of the Apocalypse
Appx. 10.4 months, exactly 313 days after Jesus Christ broke the first seal, releasing the First Horseman of the Apocalypse, the Paris Olympics opening ceremony staged his coming out. It strutted as the world’s gazed upon it. It carried a bow with no arrow in the form of a rainbow flag. Bows symbolize covenants in the Bible. The rainbow is the sign of the covenant that God made with Noah when God promised that He’ll never again destroy the world with water.
3.6 Cry, Glory God Beyond
In the same ceremony, the Last Supper of Jesus Christwas mocked and was replaced by an ugly clown-like slop of Dionysus, a seduction to debauchery.
Jesus Christ Graciously Forewarned Us:
The UN SDG 2030 Agenda, nick named the ‘Paris Agreement pt. 2’ seemed likely, at first, to be the Daniel 9:27 agreement, but that changed on Oct. 2, 2024, when on Yom Teruah (Trumpets), the UN Pact for the Future (explained below) was ratified! By that time I’d studied Daniel 9, especially Daniel 9:27, in the difficult to find Old Greek version, which gives interpretive leeway to explain what’s really happening in the world right now; It better accommodates the series of astonishing world agreements, all leading to the building up of The Old Covenant that God made with the Sons of Jacob. the Old Mosaic Covenant must be practiced for many weeks with sacrifices and libations, until it reaches its consummation. Only then will it be interrupted and desecrated by the Beast, which is not said to occur at a geometrical halfway point, as the Masoretic text implies. It merely says ‘after many weeks.’
3.7 Cry, Glory God Beyond
But the UN SDG 2030 Agenda remains as relevant as ever, even being connected to amazing calendrical and cosmic patterns, which I won’t go into here. The video below tells of some of those.
Like most people, I’d read only the Masoretic (Theodotian based) Daniel 9:27 verses, when I first wrote this post. I now know that the Old Greek doesn’t say outright that the agreement/alignment with the Prince will be for 7 years. The SDG 2030 Agenda first impressed me because it’s a confirmation and strengthening of a prior 7 year agreement for an additional 7 years. That’s what people should’ve been looking for, if they were going by the Masoretic text only; And I think because of that, it woke up many people. So I called it The Midnight Cry Event, but now I’ve discovered more reasons for it to really be the Midnight Cry – the wake up call that our Lord is coming soon. (The Old Greek text is available below.)
For a brief period I thought the Midnight Cry came later – on New Year’s Eve 2025 AD
1. Muslim Zohran Mamdani was inaugurated as mayor of NYC as midnight Dec. 31, 2025 passed into Jan 1, 2026 AD, at 00:00.
2. On New Years Eve, Trump made a Judas move while also SUBTLY announcing the RETURN of JESUS CHRIST!!!!
3. And the Iranian gov. disabled internet so they could increase the massacre of protestors.
I don’t think the parable was saying that the ‘cry’ was literally going to be a man shouting in the middle of the night any more that I think we who are of His bride are literally barley pearls.
So since then, the relevance of the SDG 2030 Agenda re–emerged as being the most important day.
Not every significant event has to occur after Daniel’s 70th week begins. Certainly the reestablishment of Israel as a nation on May 14, 1948 took place before Daniel’s 70th week began. The SDG 2030 Agenda was the first very significant ‘domino’ in a series of agreements that have been snowballing toward the building of God’s 3rd temple and the further dividing of God’s land, despite the fact that it took place 6 months before Daniel’s 70th week began on April 9 ’24 AD. And I understand that this will raise some hairs, but nowhere in the Bible is it written that Jesus won’t break the first seal of the scroll before Daniels 70th week begins! I’ve written extensively and have given strong proof that the 24 elders in God’s throne room do not represent the main body of Christ’s church or His bride. Christ’s church/bride is represented by the lamp stands/blazing torches that indicated that saints from all seven church types, while still on Earth were shining the light of truth for Jesus Christ before He took the scroll from out Holy Father and broke the first seal. (That doesn’t necessarily mean His bride was mature, complete or ready, see post 1.)
The SDG 2030 Agenda plays a key role in the predominately environmental based excuse, by the powers that be, to takeover the world: The UN(1945), WHO(1948) and WEF(1971), supported by Black Rock(1988) and Vanguard(1975) are all underpinned by Luciferian, Illuminati, Masonic Values. The takeover’s been in the planning since well before 1992, which is when the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) began. UNFCCC’s nickname has been COP-92, COP-93, . . . COP-30 (the next one.)

America’s part in this goes back to before Albert Pike, who was a despicable leader of Free Masonry, the ultimate tool of the Luciferians, which made its way over here from Europe. In England it was already tied into the royal family.
Who will fill the space under the all all seeing eye? Satan’s working on seeing all through things like transhumanism, Neuralink and every type of digital surveillance.

The “Hidden Mysteries” of the Illuminati
It is interesting to note that satan has not one original thought. Everything he does is a counterfeit of Christ. Even satan’s followers on earth, the ones led by the Illuminati who worship Lucifer – base their empire and hierarchy on the “Hidden Mysteries”. They deliberately deceive the lower levels in Freemasonry. In the Christian “church” (the pastors and their members are deceived), in the military (even many of the generals are deceived as to the real truth behind all the wars, and certainly the rank and file military man and woman are deceived), in the area of education (the teachers are deceived), in the field of medicine (the doctors are deceived.) The hierarchy of the Illuminati speaks in code so the general population cannot understand their goals – to rule the world and destroy the vast majority of the population of the world. The goal of the Illuminati and their “Hidden Mysteries” is total destruction, whereas God’s goal for the world is ultimately, universal restoration – through the revelation of God’s Mysteries to all mankind.
The truncated base of the top pyramid has a missing section where the Antichrist will bridge the gap. It seems that the Antichrist will be, among other things, the top Mason, higher than the Royal Grand Masters, from the Order of the Garter who can only be of the monarchy. Then he’ll most likely be possessed Apollo who’s considered to be satan’s son. (Rev. 11)
The founding of the Grand Lodge of London and Westminsterin London at St. Paul’s Churchyard took place on June 24, 1717. It was the first Masonic Grand Lodge to be created and was referred to as Grand Lodge of England. King George IV was its first Royal Grand Master (1790-1813).
In 1813 it united with a competitor lodge, the Ancient Grand Lodge of England, to create the United Grand Lodge of England covering England, Wales and the Commonwealth Nations.
King Edward VII (1874-1901) was its first Royal Grand Master. The oldest royal tracing goes back to 1601 King James IV was a Fellowcraft Freemason in Perth Scotland but later became King of Ireland and England under the title King James I, but the nations were not unified. Yes, it’s the King James of the King James Bible.
America, the restrainer’s restrainer is delaying central bank digital currency; perhaps making America a great target for nuclear destruction.
Luciferians believe satan’s lie, that satan is the bearer of true spiritual light. But, satan lost that title when he fell from God’s grace because of his pride in the beauty that God gave him, and his desire to receive worship for himself from the angels.Ever since being thrown out of God’s heavenly court satan’s also been seeking out worship for himself from humans and trying to destroy everything God loves.For more on this, see:
In most pyramid images on the web, the top pyramid, TGAOTU, which means The Great Architect Of The Universe, is the capstone. (satan tries to steal credit)
3.11 Cry, Glory God Beyond
Under that, the upper row in the pyramid is usually shown as a gap, reserved for the Antichrist. The Luciferians have long been preparing the way for him to bridge the gap between humanity and satan’s total rule. The Antichrist will bridge the gap when he gets possessed by Apollo.
The true Almighty triune God, the Holy Spirit and the Father in the name of His Son Jesus Christ will allow satan to rule through the Antichrist unopposed, for 42 months.
According to my calculations, the Beast’s free reign will most likely begin in early Sept. 2027. (see post 4.)
3.12 Cry, Glory God Beyond
Jesus Christ is the true faithful and eternal light for humanity. Jesus Christ proved himself to be loyal to YHWH onto a horrible death. By doing so He earned himself the title of King of the Universe and has been building an holy eternal family and everlasting Godly Kingdom for His Holy Father, through His precious blood.see:
I mentioned all that because it has everything to do with the COPs:
The COPs are behind the SDG 2030 Agenda:
Take a look at the COP-30 pyramid in the image below!
The image show’s the centerpiece display design plan for the next COP (conference of the parties), which happened in Belem, Brazil, Nov. 2025.
3.13 Cry, Glory God Beyond
Again, the capstone represents satan. He’s the false light bearer who calls himself Lucifer, a title he lost when he fell and became the great deceiver. See the gap person in the image? Is it a darkly possessed human, a hybrid or trans-human entity like Nimrod/Gilgamesh?(Gilgamesh’s body was discovered in 2023 beneath the dried up Euphrates. With CRISPER, could he have been regrown and repossessed?) Is it an android AI? A precursor to the abomination of desolation?
The base represents humanities efforts to reach heaven without God Almighty.
Genesis 11:4, Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves;
Who will be behind the intelligence that will have his throne placed symbolicallyor literally between the capstone that represents the all seeing eye and the base?
3.14 Cry, Glory God Beyond
The true title ‘Lucifer’, which means: morning star, bight morning star or son of the morning, now rightfully belongs Jesus Christ who defeated satan’s power over death, by His sinless life and resurrection. (Rev. 22:16)
Back to the UN SDG 2030 Agenda
The 17 goals existed previously as the Paris Agreement, which were based upon the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) better known as ‘COP’ goals, which hadn’t yet reached their tipping point; The technology needed to enforce it wasn’t quite ready, especially the artificial intelligence and the Starlink satellite network.
3.15 Cry, Glory God Beyond
Now it’s significant that the Paris Agreement was renamed with the more worldly, inclusive, Babylon friendly: SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS 2030 AGENDA, while the technology, particularly artificially intelligence was developing to the point where the WHO, WEF, the Roman Catholic Church and the UN could really congeal with this agenda. I think the congealing of these power began when Jesus Christ released the second seal, the removal of peace from Earth. All we need now is the catalyst.
When Jesus Christ broke the Second Seal
The Pact for the Future was announced by trumpet blows on Yom Teruah/Feast of Trumpets October 2, 2024, giving the UN military power over nations! (See below.)
The Pact for the Future:
I believe the Pact was ratified 6 months after Daniels 70th Week began.
Basing the end-time prophetic calendar on Torah years, that start in Spring, brings to light astonishing discoveries. See:
Amazingly, the entire timeline, to the very end, came together phenomenally by the Holy Spirit after, I made a small change in order to fit the UN Pact for the Future into the first year of Daniels 70th week. All I had to do was switch from ‘inclusive’ counting to ‘non-inclusive’ counting of the time interval between the cross and the destruction of the second temple! In fact, now everything fits, maybe even to the day, which is definitely not a requirement!
Why are we considering a ‘series’ of agreements?
In the English translated from the much longer Old Greek version found in some Septuagints, the Daniel 9:27 language is less precise and it’s focused on The MOSAIC COVENANT, rebuilding of the temple of God,then the reinstatement of sacrifices and libations.
The SDG 2030 Agenda was ‘strengthened’ by the Pact for the Future.Here’s an excerpt from the official Pact for the Future document (top of its Page 42):
Climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our time, with adverse impacts that are disproportionately felt by developing countries, especially those that are particularly vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change. We commit to accelerate meeting our obligations under the
United Nations Framework Convention Climate Change
Why do they still sometimes call it the Paris Agreement?
. . . the UN likes to continue calling it ‘The Paris Agreement,’ because it was the name of the original 7 yr. agreement that expired in Sept. 2023, although it was followed up by 7 more years of a stronger version of itself under the new name: Sustained Development Goals 2030 Agenda, which is a rather cumbersome name to articulate. So perhaps it’s just easier for them to say: The Paris Agreement. The 17 SDG goals are identical, except now they’re called: accelerated, sustained and transformative. (See below.)
So, after Pact for the Future was ratified, the original ‘Paris Agreement’ was doubly confirmed – strengthened and accelerated! Hmmm! The Masoretic Daniel 9:27 says “and he (the prince that is to come) will confirm a covenant with many for 7 years …” Confirm means ‘strengthen’. But, to be thorough, it can also mean prevail or enforce; In fact, it may even imply ‘strong arming.’
3.19 Cry, Glory God Beyond
Is the ‘prince’ of
Daniel 9:27 the Antichrist?
I remember seeing Nelson Walters making an argument against that, but now he seems to be for it. Until I complete my study I don’t want to limit possibilities or conflate the roles of men.
For example, regarding the man who will disrupt the sacrifices and oblations in the third Temple in Jerusalem, does he necessarily have to be the same man who sits in it declaring himself to be God, even if he was known to be the main catalyst in getting the temple rebuilt? Daniel 9:27 doesn’t mention that ‘the prince’ sits in the temple.
Links about Old Greek Daniel 9:
Here’s the page with the actual Daniel 9 Old Greek
King Charles III is the head of the Great Reset, the crowned head of the environmental world takeover movement as the Black Prince, the King of The Commonwealth Realms, but what if he manipulates someone else into rebuilding the second temple of God? See:
Even after the little/big horn displaces three horns and emerges with strength, there will still be seven horns left on the beast, for while. One of those will likely be Recep Tayyip Erdogan president of Turkey and another could be . . .
. . .
3.21 Cry, Glory God Beyond
According to the Greek word it derives from, ‘confirm’ could mean that an agreement is being strengthened or that a powerful leader, a prince, strong arms some or all of the process, perhaps even from behind the scenes, like king Charles III, acting through someone else, who may even be flamboyantly, hiding in plain sight, without signing anything himself!
The agreements discussed in this post are related to, and seem to be leading to something akin to the Abraham Accords pt.2 being signed; Naming it that, is about the greatest insult imaginable to God, if it’s regarding an agreement for Israel to sign that leads toward dividing God’s land, because it was His Abrahamic Covenant that assured that land to the descendants of Issac!
Fortunately the next agreement was just called:
The Israel-Gaza Peace Agreement.
The true Abrahamic Covenant is the ultimate foundation upon which the Israelites are God’s people through Issac and Jacob, although, now we know that in the end, only those who accept Jesus Christ, the spiritual seed of Abraham will be counted, and that former gentiles who give their lives to Jesus Christ will receive the all the Abrahamic promises.
3.22 Cry, Glory God Beyond
God’s Abrahamic Covenant specifically excluded the sons of Ishmael, who was born ‘out of faith’ and not from his wife Sarah. Those are the Arabs. But, even they will share in the inheritance, including the land inheritance, if they repent and accept Jesus Christ.
In other words: Only through the flesh line of Isaac, through Jacob, then through Jacob’s son Judah, did God Almighty send His Son Jesus Christ, the Living WORD, into flesh. Through God’s promises to Abraham, who appeared like grapes in the dessert to God, because of his faith. All those who have faith in the Jewish Messiah, from every nation on Earth, will be forgiven all of their sins and will become true Israelites; And they will be grafted into His eternal family and will be loved by the Holy Father as much as He loves His beloved Son Jesus Christ. Truly, all who believe that Jesus Christ became sin for us, although he was innocent, in order that he could impart His righteousness unto us, making us one with Him, and through Him, one with the Holy Father, including believers who are descended from Ishmael, are saved. We all must be reborn!
Very Important Note for End Time Scholars: The, commonly accepted, Theodotion based Daniel 9 Masoretic text has no source documents. It was the Old Greek Septuagint that was quoted 300 times in the New Testament.
May God Almighty guide you in all truth in the name of Jesus Christ:
The Paris Agreement pt. 2 / SDG Agenda 2030
3.24 Cry, Glory God Beyond
As mentioned above, at the September 18-19 2023 United Nations SDG 2030 Summit, documents were signed by 193 nations, including Israel, Iran, Saudi Arabia and Turkey, to reaffirm/confirm an existing covenant for another seven years and the Sustainable Development Goals Agenda 2030 has the identical 17 goals as the Paris Agreement.
The 17 goals have redundancies and could’ve been combined into:
1. Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions 2. Reduced Inequality 3. No Poverty 4. Climate Action 5. Industry and Economy. But, by dividing these into 17 categories, they were able to give their definition of ‘gender equality’ a relatively high priority. (depopulation goal)
See their slogan ‘Leave no one behind’? Are they mocking the rapture? Are they tempting people to trust in humanism and reject God? Keep reading-many pieces will come together.
The owl is the Masonic symbol representing ‘ruler of the night.’ In the Bible night represents ‘spiritual darkness’ which is predatory deception. Luciferian ideology, which is older than Nimrod, underlies the Masons and other doomed worldly powers who are rapidly joining forces for what they think is their final takeover of the world. But, satan lost his title Lucifer when He fell. So they’ve been falling for satan’s ultimate deception; And they’ve been coming boldly out of the closet. This indicates that God has already begun releasing some of His restraint, allowing the beast system to proceed.
2 Corinthians 11:14 “And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve.”
God’s Rainbow Are they thumbing their noses at God’s judgment on the world that they’ve participated in bringing about by this very agreement? For more about pride–rainbow symbolism, see:
Pride . . . hmm. Wasn’t pride the original sin by satan in heaven?
This document is about the SDG’s from the UN Secretary General Report
Here’s a link that shows that it’s a strengthening; The United Nations says the second seven years require accelerated-transformation. (The Greek word translated as confirm also implies to strengthen.) The second paragraph of this document says they need to “sound the alarm to action”. That’s very interesting considering that the signing summit took place the day after the sounding of the trumpets on Yom Teruah.
“He (the prince who’s to come) will confirm/strengthen acovenant with many for one ‘seven.’ In the middle of the ‘seven’ he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And, at the temple he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed is poured out on him.”
Daniel 9:27 (Theodotian based Masoretic text)
3.29 Cry, Glory God Beyond
Isaiah 28: 14-18
Therefore hear the word of the LORD, you scoffers who rule this people in Jerusalem. You boast, “We have struck a bargain to cheat death and have made a deal to dodge the grave. The coming destruction can never touch us, for we have built a strong refuge made of lies and deception.”
To the Rebellious People of Judah,
So this is what the Sovereign LORD says: “See, I lay a stone in Zion, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone (Jesus Christ) for a sure foundation; the one who relies on it will never be stricken with panic. I will make justice the measuring line and righteousness the plumb line; hail will sweep away your refuge, the lie, and water will overflow your hiding place. Your covenant with death will be annulled; your agreement with the realm of the dead will not stand. When the overwhelming scourge sweeps by, you will be beaten down by it. (Isaiah 28)
Note: In 2023, watchers were coming to recognize the SDG 2030 Agenda/Paris Agreement pt2 as prophetically important. I started collecting their links here, but soon after, almost ALL of these videos disappeared from search engine results? Why?
Remember therefore how you have received and heard; hold fast and repent. Therefore if you will not watch, I will come upon you as a thief, and you will not know what hour I will come upon you.(Rev. 3:3)
Jesus Christ is the only one who can save Earth, but the deadline the scientists have come up with is interesting. What you’re seeing is the NYC Climate Clock at Manhattan’s Union Square.

The Day of the Lord & The End of this Age
The Day of the Lord usually refers to God’s judgment and wrath. The term has occasionally been used for lesser episodes of God’s wrath that have already been expressed on His rebellious people Israel. But there’s a final Day of the Lord coming called The Time of Jacob’s Trouble. Remember that Jacob was renamed Israel so it’ll be primarily about Israel; But, the Day of the Lord will also bring God’s terrible judgment upon the whole Earth. It’s followed by a Thousand Year Long Sabbath Rest for God and His people, the Millennial Kingdom of Christ Jesus!
God’s 6,000 Year Allotment for Mankind’s Rebellion:
Of the 6,000 years allotted to mankind, the second 2,000 year period, from Abraham to Jesus Christ’s Crucifixion might seem to match human calculations in only a general way, but God has a reason for that – He cuts out specific periods of time when people are completely out of faith or covenant with Him.
(As far as the Adam to Abraham time duration, I don’t think we can confirm everyone who was at that time in a faith relationship with God and for how long; I only know of Abel, perhaps Seth, Enoch, Noah, Job, and no-one knows how long Job lived.)
The links below, regarding God’s 490 year pattern, help explain it, The Book of Enoch link gives the broadest insight of those, but even more information has been revealed in these end times:
Here are three study links
The Enochian Chronology: Seven Epochs of 490 Years:
The writer of Enoch must’ve gotten his knowledge of the 7, 490 yr great jubilee cycles from Daniel 9, before Theodotion got his hands on it. explained below
Oxford Bible Church-Appendix 6_Israel’s 490 yr cycles:
If you’ve looked at the third link above, about Covenant Time, I’m letting it be known that there’s also a way to measure the entire Covenant Time between God Almighty and His Old Covenant people, starting from Moses, without breaking any 490 yr. cycles until the Crucifixion of His beloved Son Jesus Christ. Then God broke it for the 40 years until the temple was destroyed. God Almighty re-initiated it when the church became mature. (Perhaps there are two accounting systems going on, suggested by C.J. Lovik.)
There are actually 7 x 490 yr. cycles or 7 Great Jubilee Cycles from Moses/Exodus to Jesus Christ’s Second Coming with the consummation of God’s plan, which is revealed in the Old Greek version of the Book of Daniel. (Explained below.)
The hour’s getting late, so in a nutshell, it’s 3,430 years:
Most Biblical scholars seem to say 1440 BC is the year of the Exodus.
Israelite Kings Date Chart Based on the chronology of John Bright:
(1 Kings 6:1) In the four hundred eightieth year after the Israelites came out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon’s reign over Israel, in the month of Ziv, which is the second month, he began to build the house of the LORD. “This verse gives a time period of 480 years between the exodus and the beginning of Solomon’s work on the Jerusalem temple. From John Bright’s chronology, Solomon ascended the throne around 961 BC, which would make the fourth year of his reign and the beginning of temple construction about 959-957 BC (see Israelite Kings). If we assume that the number 480 is to be taken as a precise number of years, much as we would count years on a calendar today, working backward from this date we arrive at a date ~1440 BC for the exodus.“
It’s exact if we include 1440 as year one when we count. We compare the end date year to many other witnesses, in this post. It’s interesting that masonry for the temple was already cut in David’s reign. (1 Chronicles 22-26)
Watch what happens when I use the 1440 BC (BCTorah) starting date!
On authority of the only source documents for Daniel 9:27, the Old Greek Codex Chisianus 45 and Papyrus 975, preserved in very few Septuagint versions, we’re essentially told to multiply 490 yrs. by 7. . . It comes to 3,430 yrs! To that, we must add the 40 missing years so that we may see what date it comes to on our human calendars. (God deemed His Covenant timeline ‘broken’ for the 40 years from the crucifixion of His Son to His destruction of the second temple.) The sum is 3,470 years. Add 3,470 years to 1440 BC (don’t forget to account for the missing BC/AD zero) and you’ll get 2031 AD.(But we must also convert back to Torah years that start in the Spring. I call those Toragorian years and I’ve started using ADT and BCT to distinguish them. So we end up on the very last day of 2030 ADT)! God re-established His Covenant Time, after He broke it, by instituting the final four 490 year cycles. This re-establishment coincides with the beginning of the ‘mature church age,’as compared with its ‘Pauline’ establishment period, which ended sometime between 64 and 68 BC.
4.2 Count, Glory to God
As you read this post you’ll see that 2030/2031 ADT dovetails with all the other end time prophesies that are discussed. And, further below, you can read the written 7 x 490 year prophesy from the Old Greek.
Jesus Christ summarized a seven fold modeling of the ‘established church’ when, in about 95 AD, He appeared in a great vision to St. John the Revelator (Rev. 2-3). God had restarted His 490 yr. cycles immediately after destroying the second temple. That seems to have been because His New Covenant Church had become mature enough, at that time, to ‘pick up the baton,’ taking the place of His temple in Jerusalem; I mean the church as not just as individuals with the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, but as organized communities, strengthened by individual members who edify each other, while also acknowledging that the Israelites/Sons of Jacob are its roots.
Whether talking about the:
Daniel 9:24, 70-WEEKS-PROPHESY (490 yrs.)
or the
Daniel 9:27, 7-x-70-WEEKS-PROPHESY (3,430 yrs.)
. . . we’re dealing with organized ‘weeks of years’ ending with sabbatical or sabbath years.
A sabbath year is the final year of a structured week-of-years called a ShmitaCycle.
An organized seven units of time, whether it be of days or years, is called a ‘shabua’.
4.3 Count, Glory to God
Why are these year-long appointed times prescribed by God Almighty every 7th year? They’re designed for land rest and total forgiveness of all dept, to prevent any of God’s covenant people from gaining undue wealth and power with which to oppress their brethren in God’s land.
God Almighty Measures His Covenant Time with Great Jubilee Cycles.
As addressed in the links above, our Holy Almighty God has left out of His time reckoning, certain episodes when people were ‘out of faith’ with Him. But with the Mosaic Covenant, He established rules for dealing with rebellion, using judgment/probation periods. The 490 year Great Jubilee Cycles have become disciplinary judgment/probation periods in which God, in his long suffering, also extends mercy to His Covenant people – another chance for them to get it right. The 70 Weeks (490 yrs.) of Daniel 9:24, is one example of a Great Jubilee Cycle. In fact, since the sons of Jacob have been sinning, nearly continuously, since before the crossing at the Red Sea, all 7Great Jubilee Cycles are disciplinary judgment/probation periods. This is related to what He meant when Jesus said we should forgive 70 times 7 times.
“Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother who sins against me? Up to seven times?” Jesusanswered, “Jesus says to him, “I say to you not up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven.”
Matt. 18:21-22
4.4 Count, Glory to God
Note: That’s 490 forgivenesses. God counts His forgivenesses by years grouped into 7’s. A Shmita cycle is 7 structured years ending in a Sabbatical/Sabbath year. Seven of those make a 49 year Jubilee Cycle, and ten of those make a 490 year Great Jubilee Cycle. Depending on how one looks at this, it seems that that God actually forgives 7 times more than the number of times He told Peter to forgive, but that’s if you count it in individual years, not weeks of years! There are 7Great Jubilee Cycles in God’s redemption plan. Hallelujah!
Even the 70 years of the Babylonian exile were based on the 490 years of neglect of the Torah prescribed land Sabbaths that Judah committed.
The 40 years between the Cross and the AD 70 destruction of the second temple, has been cut out by God from His Covenant Time.
The Final 4 Great Jubilee Cycles
I’ve attempted to make these things easy to understand in the rest of this post. But I won’t oversimplify it. I’m not the only one who’s observed that there are an additional 4 Great Jubilee Cycles, that begin their countdown from the year after God destroyed the second temple in Jerusalem. I first saw it mentioned by C. J. Lovik, in a few of his videos, but I derived it in a completely different way!
Update: I recently discovered Ryan from ‘Counting for Caleb’ who derived some very similar overall timeline elements to those presented in this post and this blog, such as the significance of the Midnight Cry Portent! (See post 3.) Like me, Ryan also uses the 7 x 70 weeks-of-years method, but he deems the 40 years that God delayed the Israelites, in the dessert, before allowing them to enter the promised land, as the part God ‘cut out’ of His covenant years; His method makes it more challenging to recognize that the final four Great Jubilee Cycles have been re-instituted by God because of His New Covenant in the blood of Jesus Christ! (See post 12.Last Hour Links for links to both Ryan, Lovik and Walters who recently embraced God’s 7 x 490 yrs. plan.)
4.5 Count, Glory to God
The final Shmita Cycle of the last of the Great Jubilee Cycles overlaps the final Shmita Cycle of Daniel’s-70th-week. (Although, there could be a 30 day offset due to immaturity of Jesus’ barley bride requiring a leap year in God’s accounting, see post 1, and/or the corrupted Rabbinical calendar, which would match up with the mysterious 30 added on days of Daniel 12:11.) Either way, it’s still the same Shmita cycle ending with the final Jubilee Year! In addition, there are four other great Biblical prophesies that reach their conclusions within the same on year period! They all dovetail with Daniels-70th-week! (see mark 4.26 below)
So you might rightly get up in arms and say ‘God doesn’t do anything without first revealing it to His prophets!’
Well, as introduced above (at mark 4.2 Count, Glory to God) a total count of 7Great Jubilee Cycles was revealed by God in Daniel 9:27, as recorded in the Old Greek Septuagint. I think the Lexham English Translation of the Septuagint 1st edition may have the best translation into English. (I’ve acquired the Old Greek itself and confirmed it using Strongs and other lexicons.) It’s explained in this post and elsewhere in AlephTav.blog. I also pasted my own final translation below (with explanations).
God answered Daniel’s long prayer according to Daniel’s repentance of his peoples sins.
In Daniel’s 21 day long prayer with fasting and no anointing (Dan. 9:3-19 & 10:13) he repented of the sins of his people all the way back to the time of Moses. God YHWH matched that in His answer in which God pointed out the 7 Great Jubilee Cycles of 490 yrs. each, that cover the span of time from Moses/Exodus to the Messiah’s Second Coming at Armageddon. The Old Greek version of Dan. 9:27, the correct version, is much longer. It actually contains the additional prophesy that was removed by Theodotian, and subsequently the Masorites. (It has a big history, saving it for later) So, to say it again: The prophesy is: 7 x 70 x 7, which can also be shown as 7 x 490. It’s 3,430 years either way! Remember the Dan. 9:27 prophesy does not replace the Dan. 9:24, 70-Weeks-Prophesy. And, it’s worth repeating that, quite remarkably, the two prophesies dovetail in the final shmita cycle and may end on the very same Sabbath year.
4.6 Count, Glory to God
2,000 Years from the Crucifixion to the Final Restoration of 1/3 of the Jews to God.
The final 4 Great Jubilee Cycles are a modified version of God’sjudgment/probation cycles. Throughout all that time individual Jews may have been redeemed through faith in Jesus Christ via the New Covenant. Ultimately, 1/3 of Jews will be redeemed by accepting the New Covenant in Jesus Messiah, but nothing resembling a national repentance will occur until they see the death, resurrection and rapture of the Two Witnesses, followed by the death of 7,000 people by an earthquake in Jerusalem and the setting up of the abomination of desolation. Those new believers, who will flee to the wilderness, represent national Israel. But, they’ll be refined like gold and won’t be harvested until the very end of the final week of years. (They’re the owner’s portion of Jesus’ fruit or ‘good grape harvest’).
The CRUX
Looking at the years right after the crucifixion: The Jews seem to have been given an extra 40 years to repent, before God destroyed the temple. But, that was no ordinary judgment/probation period; God had already broken His conventional way of accounting time, as they’d just tortured and killed His beloved only begotten Son. There was a New Covenant in the blood of His innocent Son, while the very people who God held responsible for having Him crucified were overseeing and performing blood and animal sacrifices in the temple, believing it would bring them forgiveness of their sins.
During those 40 years, the Jews continued to be exposed to Jesus’ Jewish disciples in the promised land. God allowed them that opportunity and although many repented, such as the 3,000 at Pentecost, sadly the Jews failed to make national repentance.
God’s judgment came in the form of the destruction of the temple of God in Jerusalem in AD 70, fulling Jesus’ prophesy in Luke 19:43 and especially the Ezekiel 4:6 40-Year-Siege-Prophesy. The Jews (and all Sons of Jacob) had been warned, four times, in Leviticus 26:18, 21, 24 & 28 that a 7 fold greater judgment would be multiplied upon them each time they fail to repent. 7 x 40 = 280 yrs. AD 70 plus 280 years lands on AD 350, which was another failed chance for the Jews to repent. . .
350 AD was the year Talmud writers greatly increased their slander against the Messiah.
. . . Therefore their punishment was multiplied by 7 again: 7 x 280 = 1960 yrs, (Including the 280 years of time served.) Add those 1,960 yrs plus the original 40 years to get the prophetic 2,000 years! That’s 2,000 yrs from the Crucifixion before the final restoration of the remnant of the Jews to God, 1/3 of them.

Zechariah 13: 8-9
There’s a useful homemade block chart below, starting at mark 4.20. It simplifies things a lot! But, first I want to explain how I’ve used prophetic numbers. There’s really no shortcut to explaining the 2,000 yrs. But, I think I’ve achieved it. It’s not confusing.
More about the final two thousand years:
Come, let us return to the LORD; for it is He who has torn, and He will heal us; He has struck down, and he will bind us up. After two days He will revive us; on the third day He will raise us up, that we may live before Him. . . . What shall I do with you, O Ephraim? What shall I do with you, O Judah? . . . In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing; Ephraim’s whoredom is there; Israel is defiled. For you also, O Judah, a harvest is appointed.
Hosea 6: 1,2,4,10,11

2 Peter 3:8, “But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day.”
So, lets consider the Hosea 6, 2000 Year Prophesy:
This prophesy is for Ephraim and Judah. Although God certainly turned his face from Ephraim first and allowed them to be exiled for more than 2,700 yrs, God hadn’t completely withdrawn Himself from ‘them’ until He ‘completely’ withdrew from ‘them both’. In the Book of Hosea, God reveals His strong love and wrath: (It’s a must read book for us to understand the heart of God our Father! God seemed to be wavering between love and hate for Ephraim (Israel). How important is Ephraim to God? They were the Northern Kingdom (called Israel), 10 out of the 12 tribes of the Son’s of Jacob/Israel, very important!
Hosea 5: 5-6,
Israel’s arrogance testifies against them; the Israelites, even Ephraim, stumble in their sin; Judah also stumbles with them. When they go with their flocks and herds to seek the Lord, they will not find him; He has withdrawn himself from them.
Although the story line of the Book of Hosea is mostly told through God’s relationship with the Northern Kingdom (the House of Israel), dramatized by God having Hosea marry a prostitute; Hosea’s prophesy is ultimately about the Millennial Kingdom, when He will forgive and restore them. Who’s ‘them’ in Hosea 5:6? It’s both the House-of-Israel, which is Ephraim along with the House-of-Judah. At the beginning of the Millennial Kingdom, God will join them back together into one stick. (see Ezekiel 37:15 below)

John 8:21
Once more Jesus said to them, “I am going away, and you will look for me, and you will die in your sin. Where I go, you cannot come.”
Matthew 23:37-39
“Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing. Look, your house is left to you desolate. For I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.”

So, instead of counting forward 2,000 yrs (2 days) from, 722 BC when Assyria took Ephraim (the House of Israel) and most of them were scattered, among the nations, (although many took refuge in Judah) let’s count backwards from the start of the Millennial Kingdom, which we’ve calculated above. That’s how we find out when God withdraws Himself from THEM: Ephraim and Judah.
March 24, 2031 AD is exactly 3,470 yrs, to the day, after God gave Moses the calendar in 1440 BC.
Counting 2,000 yrs backward from March 24, 2031 AD brings us to the Spring of 31 AD.
So what event could’ve triggered the full definitive 2,000 yr. withdrawal of God from both Judah and Ephraim? Hmm. Hmmm?
4.11 Count, Glory to God
As will be explained below, a 31 ADT crucifixion would’ve happened on a Wednesday.
The 2 day (2,000 yr.) Hosea 6 prophesy refers to the time duration from the year of the Lord’s Ascension to heaven to the completion of His second coming when the last remaining Judeans will say “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.” Keep in mind that the Hosea 6:2 prophesy says, “After two days He will revive us; on the third day He will raise us up.”
4.12 Count Glory to God
The gathering of the main harvest of the Jews will occur 1,260 days after the abomination of desolation is first seen by them, as it’s being set up on the wing of the 3rd temple. They’re the main harvest of the good grapes, taking place 30 days before Jesus Christ destroys the A.O.D.. There will be a remainder, called the gleanings of the good grape harvest, the Jewish martyrs who’ll be harvested in that 30 day period.
Finally, there’s a group of ‘elect’ Jews who’ll miss all the harvests and the marriage supper of the Lamb, yet call on their true Messiah’s name at the very last micro-second before they’re destroyed by the the Beast in the Battle at Armageddon. Jesus will wait, behind the veil, for them to call on His holy name before He reveals Himself. Then He will defeat the armies of the world by His Full Glory and by the sword that will come out of His mouth – the WORD of TRUTH; His standard, all His risen saints will be at his side, and behind Him, and myriads of holy angels will fill the heavens farther than the human eye can see!
After the armies of Earth are defeated, then Jesus Christ will destroy the Abomination of Desolation.
Those last microsecond Jews are still considered to be God’s elect. They’ll be allowed to enter the Millennial Kingdom of Jesus Christ with mortal bodies and greatly extended lifespans, and they will reproduce, a lot!
And of course, lets not forget the lost Northern tribes called ‘Ephraim’. They’ll also be brought into the Millennium with mortal bodies. They’ll be made ‘one stick’ with those final Jews. Daniel 12 says blessed are those who wait until the 1,335 days. So, it appears that this will happens in the 45 days after the A.O.D. is destroyed, after the conclusion of the Daniel 70th week proper. This also fits with the words ‘after two days’ in the Hosea 6:2 prophesy.
Recapping – In Hosea 5, when it says “He has withdrawn Himself from them (both of them),” that only happened with the ascension of Jesus Christ. When He returns He’ll restore them to be one stick. (Ezekiel 37:15 below)
Jerusalem ties North and South together.
It was only due to the cruelty of King Rehoboam, King David’s grandson, that the 10 northern tribes of Jacob/Israel seceded to become the Northern Kingdom and began calling themselves the House of Israel. God cares about them intensely and hasn’t deemed them to be forever separate from the Southern Kingdom, the House of Judah.

Joining them back together – to one stick
Ezekiel 36:24, “Therefore say to the Israelites, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: It is not for your sake, people of Israel, that I am going to do these things, but for the sake of My Holy Name, which you have profaned among the nations where you have gone.“
Ezekiel 37:15-23, The word of the Lord came to me:“Son of man, take a stick of wood and write on it, ‘Belonging to Judah and the Israelites associated with him.’ Then take another stick of wood, and write on it, ‘Belonging to Joseph (that is, to Ephraim) and all the Israelites associated with him.’ Join them together into one stick so that they will become one in your hand. When your people ask you, ‘Won’t you tell us what you mean by this?’ say to them, This is what the Sovereign Lord says: “I am going to take the stick of Joseph—which is in Ephraim’s hand—and of the Israelite tribes associated with him, and join it to Judah’s stick. I will make them into a single stick of wood, and they will become one in my hand.” Hold before their eyes the sticks you have written on and say to them, This is what the Sovereign Lord says: “I will take the Israelites out of the nations where they have gone. I will gather them from all around and bring them back into their own land. I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel. There will be one king over all of them and they will never again be two nations or be divided into two kingdoms. They will no longer defile themselves with their idols and vile images or with any of their offenses, for I will save them from all their sinful backsliding, and I will cleanse them. They will be my people, and I will be their God. ‘For I will take you out of the nations; I will gather you from all the countries and bring you back into your own land. I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean; I will cleanse you from all your impurities and from all your idols. I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws. . . I want you to know that I am not doing this for your sake, declares the Sovereign Lord. Be ashamed and disgraced for your conduct, people of Israel!'”

The reason I keep driving this point home is that the timing of the prophesies all come together only if Judah is properly acknowledged as having been included in the Hosea 5 and 6 prophesies.
Conclusion about the 2000 years
Prophesies that God gave to the Northern Kingdom/House-of-Israel include Judah, becauseonly in the Southern Kingdom, the House-of-Judah, has God put His Holy Name. God’s Holy Name is forever established in His City Jerusalem. His temple was there. That’s where He used to appear every year to the High Priest on the Day of Atonement to forgive the sins of all His covenant people. His temple was where all 12 tribes were supposed to worship, and the only place where His Torah Law can be properly observed. It’s where His beloved King David once ruled all the sons of Jacob/Israel as one Kingdom under God. And it’s the place from where His beloved Son Jesus Christ will rule Earth for the 1,000 years, until God Almighty makes the new universe.
So, God will fulfill the Abrahamic promises for the 12 tribes in addition to all gentiles who join Israel through true faith in the Jewish Messiah Jesus Christ.

Getting ready to view the homemade block chart:
Overview
Let’s start by having Daniel 9:27 in front of us, both the Masoretic along side one of the translations from Old Greek. (For the Book of Daniel, modern Bibles use the Masoretic text. Beware, most Septuagints use the Old Greek in every book except for Daniel, so be very careful if you buy one.) Although I generally use the Masoretic, the Book of Daniel is a special case. Jesus referred to it regarding the abomination of desolation (A.O.D).
Daniel 9:27Masoretic NIV “He will confirm a covenant with many for one ‘seven.’ In the middle of the ‘seven’ he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And at the temple he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed is poured out on him.”
Daniel 9:27 O.G. Lexham Eng. Septuagint1st ed “And the covenant will be made strong for many, and it will recover again, and it will be built up in breadth and length. And at the end of the appointed times, and after seven periods of seventy appointed times, [*and sixty-two years] during the set time of the consummation of war, then the desolation will be taken away when the covenant prevails for many weeks. And at the completion of the period of seven, offering and drink-offering will be taken away and upon the holy place there will be an abomination of desolation until the end. And a determined final destruction will be rendered upon the one making desolate.” *[I thought it was a scribal error, mainly a redundancy from 9:25, until I found Greek lexicons that taught that the word used for ‘years’ here also means clansmen/temple guards, because it comes from an Old Greek expression about boys coming of age; When they’re old enough to do a special job they were called ‘years’.) King David assigned exactly 62 temple guards. 1 Chronicles 23.]
The following is the best of the translations I made from the very difficult to find Old Greek Daniel 9. Every translation has issues, but looking at many of them helps a person see through it all. Translators from the seminary schools and related establishments are under great pressure to conform to prior mistakes made by their institutions, even obvious ones. Some of them, who’ve left the fold, have come out and publicly admitted the problem. You can check it yourself by using many lexicons. Don’t be fooled, some seminaries say you must buy their $600 lexicon, but they’ve folded their agenda into those.
Daniel 9:27
Many will align with a ruler/prince who will bring back to life The Covenant (Mosaic),rebuilt with length and width according to end time standards, after 7 x 70 appointed times (Sabbath years), also with 62 years (males having ‘come of age’ clansmen, specifically temple guards), until at the right moment for the consummation of joint (sin) debt payment, war will be against it, attempting to desertify it. After many weeks, The Covenant will be greatly prevailed upon.But, by the time the ‘weeks’ will be taken away, sacrifice, libation and the great sacred thing, (the ark of the covenant) it (the Mosaic Covenant) will have reached its perfect/fulfillment. An abomination making desolate will exist until a joint (sin) debt payment is given – great desertification
The below image of Dan. 9:27 is from Lexham’s English Septuagint 1st Ed.
Apparently, First Century Christians Hated the Book of Daniel!
As a result, it was allowed to be heavily redacted by someone named Theodotion, into a version they found so much more palatable, that they accepted it, even without source documents! It’s been theorized, and it makes great sense, that what they hated most was the time duration of 3,430 yrs. It says “after seven periods of seventy ‘appointed times.” They wanted Jesus Christ our glorious beloved Savior to return right away!
The ‘appointed times’, in this case, are the Sabbath years, delineating 7 yr. periods.
I hope I’m clarifying the importance to God, of sevens, on all time scales. It’s the foundation of God’s Covenant Time!

Sevens are the key to unlocking God’s timeline.
Almighty God seems to use
Fractal Time!
The end of every Torah week-of-days is an appointed time – a Sabbath Day. The end of every Torah week-of-years is an appointed time – a Sabbath Year. The end of God’s week-of-millennia is an appointed time – a Sabbath Millennium, in which Jesus Christ will rule as King of kings of all Nations and we will all will know Him face to face!
There is no longer any reason for Christians to be upset about God’s timing!
God’s 7 periods of 70 appointed times expire on the last day of 2030 ADT, which is March 24, 2031 AD,
give or take a month due to possible leap years.
Exactly 7yrs. prior to that, was the completion of the triple Great American Eclipses, Jesus Christ’s AlephTav Messianic sign!
And the very next day was Nisan 1, 2024 ADT the first day of Daniel’s 70th week!
It’s 7 x 70 x 7 years or 70 x 49 years or 3,430 yrs.
If anyone thought of seventy sevens as being a long time, think about seven times seventy sevens: That’s 7 Great Jubilee Cycles of 490 years each, 3,430 years! Appointed times are the set apart times for the ‘dress rehearsals’ that God Almighty prescribed in Torah plus the Sabbaths. When looking at such a big picture, and this is a recap: When looking at the overall timeline of God’s covenant relationship with the Sons of Jacob/Israel starting from the Exodus, the only type of ‘appointed times’ that could possibly have been comprehensible are the Sabbath Years. Again, those are the final years of God’s structured weeks-of-years called shmita cycles.
An example: The 70 Sabbath Years that Judah neglected over a period of 490 yrs. is the very reason why God exiled them to Babylon for 70 years, one year in exile for each year of neglecting land rest and forgiveness of debt. Sabbath years are that important to God!

Timing’s clear. A warning to Christians, those who are asleep:
GET READY!
Regarding Jubilee Cycles: Here’s a link to my very simplest explanation based on Torah only calendrical instructions, so they can be properly used when God’s prophesies are based on them for measuring long periods of time. Click here:
Below is a simple visual overview, based on the Daniel 9:24 70 Weeks Prophesy
… from the decree to rebuild Jerusalem – to just before the gap:
70 weeks-of years (70 x 7 yrs) is a 490-year Great Jubilee Cycle. Each set of 49-50 blocks represents one Jubilee Cycle. The first 9 sets are shown here. There are 10 altogether. (The 10th, is shown in the next image, including the church age gap from the Daniel 9:24 prophesy.) https://ref.ly/Da9.24
The first block of the first Jubilee Cycle is the year, 457 BC. That’s the year I’m using for the decree of the Persian King Artaxerxes 1st to rebuild God’s Temple. That kicks off the Daniel 9:24, 70-weeks-prophesy. Sabbath years are metallic brown.
Notice the overlapping Jubilee Years (in orange) that conjoin adjacent Jubilee Cycles. Those are called the ’50th year’ of each cycle. They’re not chronological; As you can see they overlap. That’s because in God’s Torah Law, all years start in the Spring, except for ‘Jubilee Years,’ which begin in Fall on Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement).

The Detailed Block Chart
Here’s a complete view with some details showing. (For a complete list of date estimates for the final week of years, see the bottom of this post.)
The Holy Spirit made so much fall together for me with this chart, first with the Dan. 9:24, 70 weeks prophesy, but also later with the 7 x 70 x 7 prophesy, which after being converted to our calendars, dovetailed with it, in the final week of years.
40 years after Jesus Christ’s Crucifixion, in 70 AD, God used Roman legions under Titus to destroy the 2nd temple in Jerusalem. The Ezekiel 4:6 Forty-Year-Siege-Prophesy, the one where Ezekiel lay on his right side, predicted it in the sixth century BC. (more about it below)
Notice that after the destruction of God’s Temple, God’s 490 year Great Jubilee Cycles re-emerged.
The Gap inDaniels 70 Weeks Prophesy
The huge ‘gap,’ which many people call the ‘church age’ began after the 69th week and ends before the final week-of-years according to the prophesy. In my estimation, the gap began on AD 28, the year following Jesus Christ’s baptism in 27 AD. (Why 27 AD? See mark 4.34.)
For the years of Jesus’ ministry, there was glory on the premises of the Temple of God, through His anointed presence – shown in red on the chart. The special concept of the presence of the Messiah bringing back the glory to the premises is only mentioned in English, in some translations from the Old Greek Daniel 9.
Since exactly when Jesus will take His bride is unknown, humbly marking out the earliest possibilities prevents watchers from being caught unaware. We were looking at 2025 ADT, but now we’re looking at early 2026 AD which still fits. The removal of the bride, God’s spiritual temple, will trigger the masonry temple to be rebuilt. The leeway for the timing of the rebuilding of the temple is given in the Last Week Date Estimates Table, below at mark 4.32.
4 Critical Prophesies Point to the Same Final Year!
Jesus said “Learn the Parable of the Fig Tree.” The Fig Tree Generation began with the reestablishment of National Israel. It doesn’t have to be exact, but a generation was sometimes considered to be 70 yrs. but 80 yrs. by a person’s own strength. Jesus said this generation (the Fig Tree Generation that He was teaching about) won’t pass away until all the things mentioned in the Olivet Discourse will have happened: The last sign of the Olivet Discourse is to see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory.’ That’s 1,260 days (~3.445 yrs) after the A.O.D. is first set up. The 1948 generation of Jews will turn 80 on May 14, 2028. That means they’ll see the A.O.D.; But Jesus said they’d see “all these things.” Will they live long enough? The average lifespan in Israel right now is approaching 83.8 y/o. Yes that exactly covers it
The Hosea 6, Two Days Prophesy:“After two days(2000 yrs.) he will revive us; on the third day He will raise us up, that we may live before him.” From the beginning of 31 ADT to the beginning of 2031 ADT is 2000 years. So, soon after that, “He will revive them.” Yes that works perfectly.
The Ezekiel 4:5 Siege Prophesy: God allotted 390 yrs. of probation/punishment on the House-of-Israel for their ~200 yrs. of whoredom. During the Babylonian captivity, God commanded the prophet Ezekiel to carry the burden to warn the Jews in Babylon of the consequences of sin. God made him perform alarming ‘street theater’ for 390 days, one day for each year. He lay on his left side alongside a street where many Jews went by and he reminded them of the 701 BC siege that took place on Jerusalem by Assyria; God told him to build a small model of Jerusalem in front of where he lay and to hold up an ‘iron pan’ between himself and the model, to remind the Jews that Jerusalem had been completely protected by God during that siege. Since Jerusalem is the apple of God’s eye and that siege wouldn’t have occurred if it weren’t for the idolatry of the House of Israel, so the northern kingdom was blamed. Although God protected Jerusalem from that siege, the 390 years of punishment on the House of Israel for their ~200 years of whoredom was decreed by God to begin in 701 BC, despite having already gone into forced exile 20 years prior. Counting from the 701 BC siege on Jerusalem, after their 390 yr. punishment/probation period, they didn’t repent, so God multiplied it by seven. 7 x 390 yrs = 2,730. There’s no Gregorian year ‘0’, so for the 701 BC part of the following calculation, we use 700 yrs. The math is simply 2,730 yrs. – 700yrs. = 2030AD. Converting back to Torah year structureswhich begin in Spring, and seeing what happens if it were to end on the last day of 2030ADT; The next day would be Nisan 1 2031ADT. On the Gregorian that’s March 25, 2031 AD, which is the day after the protected Jews will be harvested! See Final Week Date Estimates Table below; It works!
The Ezekiel 4:6 40 yr. Siege Prophesy of the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70, which was 40 yrs. after the Crucifixion. This time, Ezekiel performed his ‘street theater’ while laying on his right side, and he held up no ‘iron pan’ indicating no protection this time for Jerusalem by God Almighty. Ezekiel’s contemporary Daniel was prophesying at the same time of the decree to build the 2nd temple. See calculations above at: mark 4.6-4.7.
4.26 Count, Glory to God
A crucial detail about the Ezekiel 390 Year Siege Prophesy:
For I assign to you a number of days, three hundred ninety days, equal to the number of the years of their punishment; and so you shall bear the punishment of the house of Israel. (Ezekiel 4:5)
עֲוֺנָ֔ם (‘ă·wō·nām) Noun – common singular construct | third person masculine plural Strong’s 5771: Iniquity, guilt, punishment for iniquity
The point of showing the Greek word is that most translations use ‘sin’, but it must be ‘punishment for iniquity.’ The House of Israel couldn’t have committed its sin/whoredom for 390 years since they only existed for ~200 years, from 922 to 722 BC. The punishment was basically a double dose. See Isaiah 40:2 & 51:17, Jeremiah 16:18 and Rev. 18:6.

Now about the Final Jubilee Year
This is speculative, but God has always called His Jubilee Years the 50th year of each Jubilee Cycle. That’s despite the fact that it only overlaps and doesn’t add to overall time duration. As I wondered why, I couldn’t help but consider, as I spent years trying to see how all the blocks might fit into all the prophesies, patterns and signs, that the final Jubilee may ultimately get shifted over or set apart by God, in the end, so that it’d no longer overlap, and therefore would actually be counted chronologically.
That would turn the Final Jubilee into a Gateway Year!
Since the entire final 1,000 years is one Great Sabbath – God’s Sabbath, it was actually seeming reasonable idea, that the final Jubilee Year might become a gateway year tothe Millennial Kingdom, a time of celebrating justice and the re-allotting of land inheritances to the 12 tribes, while integrating ‘formerly gentile’ believers among them, establishing them/us all in the holy land, perhaps even while the 4th temple is being built. It still makes sense to me, and there’s even a way in which it could happen logically, but there’s no need for such a bridge for the sake of leeway to reconcile the prophetic timeline, because everything seems to be coming together perfectly without it.
Shifting Cosmos could cause the final Jubilee Year to shift!
Some Bible expositors expect a shift in seasons caused by the gargantuan cosmic events of the, trumpet and bowl judgments. The third and greatest earthquake ever, will occur at the 7th bowl, so perhaps God intends to shift Earth’s axis, orbit or both in such a way that Yom Kipper, which is when the Jubilee Years normally start, will come to be observed in Spring. That’d also have the effect of making the Final Jubilee Year a true 50th year.

God’s Years – approaching the conclusion of this post
People rarely use God’s Torah prescribed years for their end times prophetic calendars. I decided to do so and was surprised to see it all come together ending on the last day of 2030 ADT (March 24, 2031 AD) with some final parts such as the extra days of Daniel 12, carrying over into beginning of 2031 ADT! All Weighty Glory to God!
Where are the Two Witnesses?
I expect the two olive trees and the two lamp stands are already here on Earth . . . But, even many watchers, think this is a radical idea! So let’s start by examining the Revelation verses very closely.
St. John wrote in the spirit.
Go and measure the temple of God and the altar, and count the number of worshipers there. But exclude the courtyard outside the temple. Do not measure it, because it’s been given over to the nations, and they will trample the holy city for 42 months.Rev. 11: 1-2
4.29 Count, Glory to God
And I will grant to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy a thousand two hundred sixty days, clothed in sackcloth.Rev. 11:3
Here’s the crux: The Rev. 11:3 word translated as ‘and’ probably does not indicate sequence. In fact, it should have been left out of the English. The Greek word translated ‘and’ is ‘kai.’ Kai is defined as: and, and also, also, but, even, indeed; But, in the Old Greek passages I’ve studied, periods and commas were non existent. Instead the word kai strings almost every thought together!
So, just because the two witnesses were written about in the verse following the verse about the 42 months of gentile trampling, connected by ‘kai,’ which is most likely just serving as a period, doesn’t mean that the two witnesses must start their ministry after the gentiles begin their trampling or even after the temple is built. The trampling is the thing that must begin after there’s a temple built, with both an inner and outer court.
I think God showed St. John the temple first to provide the setting. It was a time traveling vision, and as such St. John needed to be immediately oriented upon his arrival there, so he knew which future generation he was witnessing. If St. John had arrived at a future place and time, and merely just heard the voice of God saying “I will grant my two witnesses,” that would’ve been disorienting! In fact St. John never actually saw the two witnesses, they were only described to him.
A mundane storytelling example – a direct parallel: Let’s say you tell your friend, about a dream you had, one that you believe will come true, and that the way in which you interact with the story as you tell it, makes it clear that you believe it’ll truly be your future.
You begin by describing your future home and yourself putting the finishing touches on it. You mention the neighborhood, including strange neighbors who will act wildly for a period of time. Then, from your now perspective, one in which you see the dream future as real, you say to your friend, “I’ll give my children every advantage.”
The question is . . .When you said “I’ll give my children every advantage.” Should your friend assume, from the context, that you absolutely won’t give your children every advantage until moving into that house?
The Two Witnesses may be halfway through their ministry by the time the 3rd temple is built:
People say we would’ve seen them by now, that who they are would be obvious due to their Holy Spirit powers; But the Rev. 11 verse only mentions that they’ll use those powers ‘when their ministry becomes threatened’, and it never says they’ll shut the rain for 3.5 years like Elijah did. It only says that they’ll have the power to shut the rain and turn water into blood. Since the Beast’s 42 month free reign doesn’t start until the two witnesses are killed, they must be here now.
Jews aren’t the only ones who need to hear the truth; We’re in the time that some call the Babylonian (worldly) church.I think the reason thatthere are two menorah’s in Rev. 11, instead of only one, as was the case in Zechariah’s Old Testament vision when the two olive trees were feeding only one menorah, is because this time there are two covenant peoples who need to be spiritually fed.
I’m not going to try to explain it here, except to say that Jesus is the living WORD, which is the true manna (bread of life) and that His spirit is the Holy Spirit (first pressed olive oil);
When the oil is lit (the holy spirit living in the saint) the flame is the light of the world, which is the living WORD.
All of that’s held up by the 7 church types, who are the 7 lamp stands. But, there are also the Old Covenant Israelites, who were at the time the Old Covenant was being practiced in God’s temple, represented by a Menorah in the temple of God, and still are every year represented by a menorah when they observe Hanukah, whether they realize it or not. And they will again be, every single day for many weeks, when the 3rd temple of God is built in Jerusalem.
I’ve begun avery incomplete list of who the two witnesses might be at the bottom of post 15.Awesome Testimonies. Jeff Morgan (Cohen) was my top candidate, but I’ve recently heard him imply that he doesn’t have great powers. I think the two witnesses will have the spirit(s) of Zerubabbel and Joshuah, as John the Baptist had the spirit of Elijah. An if they’re here now, they must be very active in plain sight, probably as the greatest preachers/witnesses online, who speak the whole truth to Christians and Jews, while always wearing plain clothes. I think that at times they’ll travel, in order to do street preaching in various places, but that by the time the 3rd temple is built, they will have gravitated to Jerusalem; That might be when they begin witnessing side by side.
Note: I have NOT applied hypothetical ‘prophetic 360 day years’ to any of my end time calendrical resolutions.
Regarding time periods given in Revelation and Daniel, if there were no differences between 1,260 days, 42 months, or time times and half a time, I don’t think God would have differentiated between months, days and years.
Day counts can start on any day; And God’s 42 month periods can start on the first day of any month and must end on the last day of the 42nd month.
‘A time, times and half a time’ begins with the first day of either of the two seasons of holy convocations: the Spring season, which continues until Fall begins, or the Fall season which continues until Spring begins. (There’s more on its meaning, beneath the date estimate table.)
Only the ‘free reign of the Beast’ and the ‘trampling of the gentiles’ are said to last for 42 months. The ‘trampling of the gentiles’ will begin after the 3rd temple’s built and probably before the Beast is fully empowered. The sacrifices and oblations to God must be fulfilled before the Beast is allowed to overpower it.
The Beast’s free reign will begin on Oct. 1-2 Yom Teruah (Trumpets) 2027. That’s why Daniel 7:25 states that the Beast will overcome the saints for ‘time, times and half a time,’ in this case 42 months lined up with that.
Real months are 29.53 days long. 42 of them add up to 1,240.26 days. Regarding any one of God’s 1,260 day counts, even if it started on the first day of a month, it would continue on for ~20.26 days after the 42nd month, so they don’t line up.
The exact day count of individual months, can’t be known in advance, as on the Torah calendar they’re dependent on moon sliver naked eye sightings; I’ve tried to be more accurate in my estimations by starting with astronomy tools then adjusting them, using rough probability, according to the astronomical first sliver size (because the Rabbinical Calendar has so many compromises in it.) Although the month variability is self correcting over time, it’s impossible to predict landing dates with certainty; For example the exact day upon which any one God’s 42 month periods will end. Also, human eyes detect slivers through weather and other environment conditions which will be especially relevant in the end times, with so many bombs gong off, natural disasters, supernatural occurrences and weather manipulation and all other types of pollution.
4.31 Count, Glory to God
So I added a leap year month at the end of 2024ADT, which pushed forward all the holy convocations in 2025ADT. God’s Old Covenant people were required to do that about 1/3 of the time, when Spring had not sprung and the barley ears had not turned green by the end of calendrical Winter.
Since the bride of Christ is represented by the barley harvest in scripture, and 2025ADT seems to be the year that Christ will harvest His bride, it made sense to do that; especiallysince she seemed to be immature. It may have been the church of Laodicia holding us back.
Reminder: The term ‘a time’ is based on a season of God’s holy-convocations, which are most important to Him. There are two seasons of holy-convocations per year on God’s Torah calendar: The one we call Spring includes Passover to Shavuot/Pentecost, but it extends to the end of Summer. The one we call Fall includes Yom Teruah (Trumpets) to Sukkot, but it’s considered to end at the completion of Winter.
3.5 years are what we get when we look at 7 holy-convocation seasons in a row: ‘A time’= 2 seasons or 1 year, ‘times’ = 4 seasons or two years, and ‘half a time’ = 1 season or half a year- which apparently can begin in the Spring the Fall. They’re real years, not years of hypothetical prophetic 360 day years. The number of days in their months and number months in their years vary, but ultimately, they match up with Gregorian years in the long count.
Also a time, times and half a time interval can begin in Spring or Fall, which is very important to know.

Final Addendum:
Why I used the early 457 BC for the Decree to Rebuild the Second Temple, activating the 70 weeks of Daniel prophesy.
The Persian Calendar
King Artaxerxes wrote a relevant decree in the 7th year of his reign, between the 458 to 457 BC. The dates below are sometimes said to be his Reign.
Reign
August 465–December 424 BC
But, August 465 BC was the date he murdered his father Xerxes. After that, his ascension was uncertain until it was officially recognized on January 2-3 464 BC and then his reginal year began at the Spring equinox from the Persian vantage point, which translates to about March 21, 464 BC.
The last year of the 69th week of the Daniel 9:24, 70-Weeks-Prophesy is the year Jesus Christ was Baptized with the holy Spirit . . .
. . That was the year He become the Messiah.
The first 69 weeks-of-years of the Daniel’s 70 weeks are 483 solar years, 365.24 days each.
The decree must have been given on the first year of a Jubilee Cycle, which is why Daniel broke off the first seven weeks of years of the 69 weeks of years before the gap.
Know and understand this: From the time the word goes out to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One, the ruler, comes, there will be seven ‘sevens,’ and sixty-two ‘sevens.’ … Daniel 9:25
4.35 Count, Glory to God
That was a 483 year, inclusive count to the year of Jesus’ Baptism. Some people cite Nehemiah 2:1, to refute a Spring decree, but that verse is about the 20th year of King Artaxerxes’ reign and doesn’t apply to his 7th year decree.
I think our Holy Savior Jesus Christ was Baptized in AD 27, which was a Sabbath Year.
Simple math
Here’s the math for the 457 BC decree: 483 – 457 = 26. . . Then we must add ‘one’ to 26, because of the missing year 0 between BC & AD. According to this simple method, Jesus would’ve been baptized in AD 27.
The many other attempted explanations about the decree, don’t disqualify a 457 BC decree.

The intention of King Artaxerxes 1st was for God’s Temple and the City of Jerusalem with walls to be built. God had written to King Cyrus about this through Isaiah, mainly in:
. . . who says of Cyrus, ‘He is my shepherd and will accomplish all that I please; he will say of Jerusalem, “Let it be rebuilt,” and of the temple, “Let its foundations be laid.” Isa. 44:28
I will raise up Cyrus in my righteousness: I will make all his ways straight. He will rebuild my city and set my exiles free, but not for a price or reward, says the LORD Almighty. Isa. 45:3
That was over 150 yrs. before King Cyrus’ reign. God said that it’s His will for Jerusalem and His temple to be rebuilt by Cyrus. Read what King Artaxerxes himself said in the following verse recorded in Ezra 7: 21-2 from his decree:
Whatever is commanded by the God of heaven must be done diligently for His house. For why should wrath fall on the realm of the king and his sons?
Ezra 7:23
4.37 Count, Glory to God
Ezra, was a Levite born to a priestly family, a Biblical scribe, writing books of Torah and prophets at a time when the scribes were the most highly regarded persons in the Jewish community; If there was anybody who didn’t corrupt God’s Holy calendar, it was Ezra!
“On the twelfth day of the first month we set out from the Ahava Canal to go to Jerusalem, and the hand of our God was upon us to protect us from the hands of the enemies and bandits along the way.“
Ezra 8:31
The question about the ‘first month’ is whether Ezra was referring to Nisan Spring/Torah calendar or Tishri/Civil calendar. But, there’s no way to know.
As mentioned above, Artaxerxes’ Decree must have been given in the first year of a Great Jubilee Cycle, and it’s possible that it was in the Spring
Why did the Archangel Gabriel section off the initial seven-weeks-of-years (49 years) when he spoke to Daniel the words of the 70-Weeks-Prophesy? Was it to make it clear that He was using a Jubilee based accounting system on God’s Covenant Time? The answer, in my opinion, is Yes.
4.38 Count, Glory to God
That means the 483rd year must be a Sabbatical year. . .
. . . followed by three ‘anointed years’ until the crucifixion of Jesus Christ . . .
. . . followed by the gap.
. . . followed by the final week of years,which must end on the final Sabbatical year.
. . . and, half way through the final Sabbatical year, the final Jubilee Year will begin.
That’s how the 490 year block chart above was organized.
Again, it uses God’s Spring to Winter’s end Torah year structures. Most prophesy watchers use Fall to Summer’s end year structures; Nevertheless, I’ve noticed that useful information can be gleaned from most of the different calendars.
But, I still think God’s important prophesies can more precisely be balanced using the calendars He actually prescribed, to the best of our understanding of them.

It’s beenlong anticipated that the next appointed time to be fulfilled by Jesus Christ is Yom Teruah (day of shouting), which is usually called the Feast of Trumpets, or just Trumpets.
The word ‘moedim’ translated as ‘feasts’ actually means ‘times’ in Hebrew. (מוֹעֵד Strongs 4150 )
Yom Teruah is the real name of God’s fifth holy convocation (appointed time), 4 months after Pentecost & 10 days before Atonement
Yom Teruah is the Day of Shouting or Trumpet Blowing
5.1 Glory God Beyond
The Spring appointed days were fulfilled by Jesus Christ in His first coming.
A simpler chart:
5.2 Glory God Beyond
The Question: What is the fulfillment of Yom Teruah?
Matthew 5:17 “Do not think that I (Jesus) have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.”
On the surface, it seems obvious that God’s final three appointed times will be fulfilled when the church age ends, because the church age is represented by the gap (see charts) between the last Spring appointed day ‘Pentecost’ and the first Fall appointed day ‘Trumpets‘.
So it seems that the final three appointed times, will be observed only after a ‘dormant season,’ and that the appointed times were designed that way by God Almighty, in order that they may also serve as a foreshadowing, informing us that Jesus Christ will be away for awhile, before returning to complete the fulfillment of Torah.

Beautiful creatures! All glory to God Almighty in the highest!
Joel2:1“Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand–
In 2023, Yom Teruah was observed during the time of the United Nations SDG 2030 Agenda Action Weekend, the two days preceding the SDG 2030 AgendaSummit, in which a strengthening of a prior 7 yr. covenant with many was signed by 193 nations including Turkey, Iran and Israel!
The UN Sustained Development Goals 2030 Agenda, a 7yr. extension of the Paris Agreement, is of major significance in the world; In another post I deemed it the Midnight Cry, an alert to Christ’s bride as well as the wake up call to the bridesmaids as per the Parable of the 10 Bridesmaids. See:
The SDG 2030 Agenda is, at the very least, a major foreshadowing in its timing and scope:
It set the platform for the next major world changing UN agreement, The Pact for the Future, that not only strengthened it, but was called the biggest power grab in history by Federalist Magazine. I’ve not seen anything about a deadline of Pact for the Future, but I’ve come to understand that a 7 year deadline could have been set by God Himself. What I’m saying is that no agreement made in the 70th week of Daniel can possibly last more than 7 years, because God is consummating this era at the end of the 7th year! (Old Greek Daniel 9:27 translations support this reading; Only the Masoretic text says the actual agreement is made for seven years.)
The SDG Agenda initiated the ‘peace and security’ mantra and set the stage for the UN to superseded the powers of individual nations; Then the Pact for the Future was signed a year later on Feast of Trumpets 2024!
The Feast of Trumpets is traditionally observed with 100 Trumpet Blows.
Its ultimate purpose seems to be the sounding of alarms, to those who are listening, in the final week of years of this age. God’s appointed times are called Moadim, which means ‘times’ but also means ‘dress rehearsals’; They’re intended to prepare the Israelites for the day in which it will actually be fulfilled. In other words, it’s been God’s plan to ultimately use Yom Teruah to alert his saints to the progression of important end time events, including agreements of great magnitude, each building upon the other toward the the building of the 3rd temple. It’s a process that will be associated with the world’s efforts to divide His land Israel and possibly even Jerusalem.
Addendum: Dec. 2024: The Old Greek version of Daniel 9:27, the version quoted by Jesus, is about three times as long. It provides much more interpretive leeway, possibly allowing for it to be a series of agreements, ultimately involved with the further dividing of God’s land leading to the building of the 3rd temple of God. Since it seems to be occurring that way in the world, I’ve occasionally been calling them ‘domino agreements.’ Not any one by itself sets off the 70th week. My calculations seem to clearly indicate that final week began with the conclusion of the Great American Eclipse, (a portal was opened by CERN on that day) with the SDG 2030 Agenda occurring six months before that and the Pact for the Future occurring six months after it. See posts:
Let’s also keep the 2020 Abraham Accords in mind and the likelihood that the Abraham Accords pt. 2. is coming right up, although they might call it by another name. 7 additional nations were apparently ready to sign on when I wrote this, but more has happened since them . . .
5.6 Glory God Beyond
Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud quotes words from the Pact for the Future: “the two state solution is the only viable path to lasting peace in Middle East.”
Action on the so called ‘two state solution’ is fueled by the fact that the UN Pact for the Future gave rise to unprecedented UN power. Many UN nations acted on their new combined power right away, gathering three times, the third was a high level special council for the purpose of deciding exactly how to wield their power to divide Israel. But, they were delayed over a month because of the Iran Israel War. Then they waited until the regular September UN convening, in which Australia and Canada said they’d be signing on, but with some conditions. That was leaving the United States and Germany as the only powerful countries not ganging up on Israel. Although that support seems to be fading, in some ways.
The UN’s intention was decisive action on Gaza. I predicted Trump wanted to beat them to it with some permutation of the Abraham Accords pt. 2. The UN certainly didn’t know about the original Trump Gaza Plan (Plaza Gaza) when they arranged the special conference, nor did they know that the Arab League would come back with, a 53 billion dollar plan to rebuild Gaza! I hope I’ve clearly demonstrated the propulsive action of one agreement upon another. (I haven’t even mentioned the WHO and WEF’s involvement.) For the WEF’s part, see post 22. Mystery Babylon
Since then, the agreements have been progressing. Any one can know about that part now if they pay attention to quality news. This post is focusing on the foundational agreements and how they were associated with Yom Teruah, God’s times for sounding trumpets.
In the Old Covenant, in God’s temple in Jerusalem, the appointed days were prescribed holy convocations with God. They derive their main design and meaning because they reflect God’s Heavenly Temple and its related holy practices, even as they apply to God our Father’s plan for Earth.
Feast of Trumpets & Daniel’s 70 Weeks Prophesy
God Almighty may have appointed the earthly version of Yom Teruah to the Israelites to foreshadow the world changing events that would one day take place, such as these agreements. The final Yom Teruah will be bad, that’s why on the orange chart up top, skulls are shown.

Has the First Seal of the scroll part of The Restrainer been Removed?
If any one or all of the trumpet blows of the Sept. 17, 2023 Yom Teruah heralded the beginning of the removal of the restrainer, when Jesus Christ broke the first seal of the scroll of the Deed to the Earth, then I think it’d also have been the ‘coming out’ marker of the waxing little horn/future Antichrist.
It really seemed like the beginning of the Day of the Lord, the Time of Jacob’s Trouble was looming in 2023.
Take a quick look at what was already set up in Iran in the Summer of 2023:

Why was the world so asleep, including Christians?
The words below in Hebrew and Farsi say, “Israel shall be erased off the face of the Earth.”
The Masoretic text mis-translation of Numbers 24, has caused Gog and Magog to be incorrectly drawn by many scholars on maps, showing Magog as if it simply remained in Asia Minor, where it began. The Book of Revelation describes it as the four corners of the earth. See post 27. The Beast is a Gog.https://alephtav.blog/2024/08/07/27-gog/
5.10 Glory God Beyond
Keep that in mind, while reading the Ezekiel link below: The areas in the final tribulations are most passionately rooted in the lands surrounding Israel; But a good study reveals something about how their branches have spread; Especially Magog! Approximately 4 other of those ancient peoples are still deeply rooted in what we call Turkey and although they’ve spread also, it was to a much lesser degree. Of those who spread and became the Turks, many actually returned to Asia Minor in the 15th century. The details are speculative, but since Iran’s in the process of getting new leadership, maybe we should keep in mind that they’ll probably be seduced or forced to join the strong new Sunni alliances that are congealing, because, as we know, they’ll fight along side Turkey against Israel in the Gog Magog war.
An excerpt: The word of the Lord came to me: 2 “Son of man, set your face against Gog, of the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal; prophesy against him 3 and say: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am against you, Gog, chief prince of Meshech and Tubal.
That link may need basic explanation: When Ezekiel speaks of Gog of the land of Magog who’s the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, Gog is the title of the chief princes of the dominant tribe that descended from Noah’s first son Japheth, after the flood. The dominant tribe of Japheth was Magog. It’s mainly Magog, that will have spread across the whole Earth by the time the prophesy comes true. Gog will come from a major power base some where in the territories where Magog has spread. Gog will dominate the leader(s) representing Meshech and Tubal. Currently that’s Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
4 23 ’26 Breaking news: Turkey 🇹🇷 is taking over the Palmyra Air Base in Syria. 🇸🇾 This base will be used, according to local sources, to deliver a strong counterattack AGAINST ISRAEL 🇮🇱 in the event of a possible attack BY ISRAEL 🇮🇱 ON SYRIA 🇸🇾 https://t.me/bubbanews/12808
Map showing where the sons of Japheth, mentioned by Ezekiel, are rooted.
All born to Japheth, those are the main tribes of the roots of the Caucasian people, most of which originally settled in Anatolia, which is modern day Turkey.
There is an unnamed character called the ‘King of the North’ (Daniel 11) who’ll be defeated when he ‘sets up the tents of his palace’ seemingly in Gaza, in order to attack Jerusalem after he finishes plundering several other nations. It difficult to be sure who it is, because nations have been prophesied to attacked Israel ‘from the North’ who were not actually nations located in the North. In the past, that was because of the upper part of the Great Rift Valley prevented armies from attacking Israel from the East. Putin and Erdogan are possibilities, but this is not the Ezekiel 38 war, which will only happen when Israel lets it’s defenses down after a false peace. (I only mention the King of the North here because it’s one of the three clearest wars of the final 7 years of this age, the others being the Ezekiel 38 war and Armageddon.)
Ezekiel also mentioned that 5 more peoples will join those already mentioned: Persia (which is Iran), Cush,Put,Gomer and Gomer’s son’s tribe ‘Beth Togarmah’.
Details
Persia/Iran
Japheth had a son named Madai who, instead of settling in Anatolia, went East to what became the upper half of the ancient Persian Empire. They came to be called the Medes; The Iranian Kurds are descended from them.
Noah’s second son Shem was the father of Elam, ancestor of the Elamites who make up a great part of Southern Iran. The area that’s still named Elam is on three Gulf of Hormuz and contains the Bushehr Nuclear power plant.
Cush
Descended from Noah’s other son ‘Ham’, Cush is one of the original two tribes that settled in Africa, but mainly rooted in the areas south of Egypt – centering on what we call Sudan today (originally called ‘Ethiopia’ in the Bible).
Put (Phut)
Descended from Noah’s son Ham. Put is one of the original two tribes that settled in Africa, but mainly rooted in North Africa – centering on what we call Libya today.
Gomer and Togarmah
Gomer a son of Japheth is unique because, although he originally set roots in Anatolia, his tribe spread East to the Northern most Central Asia, especially through his son Beth-Togarmah’s tribe. They came to be called the Turks, the same Turks who returned to Anatolia, conquered the nearly 1,000 yr. enduring Christian Byzantine Empire and established the Ottoman Empire there under Islam!
The rest of Gomer
Not all of Gomer’s sons expanded Northeastward; In fact, some of his sons tribes expanded Westward and then Northward into the areas we now call Europe. (In fact, that part is more well known to Bible scholars, probably because historically, most of them were Westerners themselves, and thus knew their own history better that the history of Central Asia.)
Dec. 2025 update: Since I started this post in August 2023, the Nazi spirit has nearly consumed the world. Although God has allowed this because of the continuing rebellion of the Jews against Himself, immediately after Armageddon and Jesus Christ’s triumph over satan’s Beast system and false prophet, Jesus will severely judge the nations that came against Israel. The ‘Valley of Jehoshaphat’ is where that judgment will take place.
The true Church must absolutely not join the world against the Jews, because we’re the grafted on branches of the Olive Tree of Israel by our faith in the true Jewish Messiah, the Son of God. WE ARE the hidden Israel! But the biological Israel is our roots and Israel the land will be our home during Jesus Christ’s Millennial Kingdom. We are also Ester. She’s our model. Get ready, Jesus is coming very soon and so is the final showdown between good and evil!
In conclusion, let me be a cheer leader:
It seems clear to me that the 7 yr countdown has begun. We need to be ready every day! We the church, have been most of the branches of the ‘Olive Tree of Israel’ since 70 AD. Let’s smash our olives [consume/masticate the WORD of God, who is Jesus Christ (remember He said ‘eat Me’)] to prepare extra oil for our lamps so we can burn, shining the light of truth unto the world! Now! Let’s FORGIVE everybody! MAINTAIN clean garments! STAY AWAKE! KEEP our EYES on the KINGDOM! And, by all means, GET EXCITED!
Yom Teruah is a God appointed holy day of shouting and trumpet blowing.
Most people call it the the Feast of Trumpets.
Yom Teruah comes to mind when we read these rapture verses:
1 Thess. 4: 16-17, 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.
It’s pretty clear now that Christ won’t be gathering His bride on a Yom Teruah. But, it’s been a high watch date every year. For more on that part of ‘the day no men knew’ discussion see the bottom of this post.
Yom Teruah, which was traditionally observed with 100 trumpet blows, with the first and last soundings being special long blows, had traditionally been called the, ‘the day that no man knows.’ It’s a Hebrew idiom:
It was the only Torah appointed-day that began exactly when the ‘new moon’ was sighted by two eye witnesses from Jerusalem.
The people of God had to be on their toes, because the festival was a special High Sabbath.
6.1 Glory God Beyond
It can be difficult to determine the first sliver of the month when the sky isn’t clear.
Some months have two invisible moons in a row, and also in certain months, the first sliver’s very thin. The first sliver is also challenging to see because it appears low on the horizon. Modern astronomers call the unseen moon a ‘new moon,’ but for the Israelites, the first sliver was the new moon. It wouldn’t have been very festive to sight an invisible moon!
Contrary to what some Bible expositors believe, there’s no mention of equinoxes in the Torah. God’s Torah calendar used a different way to prevent the first month, Nisan, from slipping into Winter, over time. They added an intercalary month called ‘Adar II’ in the years when Spring hadn’t yet sprung and barley heads hadn’t turned green at ‘Winter’s end’.
That was how it was supposed to be, but the Israelites greatly corrupted the calendar God’s gave them, by changing their New Year to the Fall.
Today, Yom Teruah is called Rosh Hashanah, which means ‘head-of-the-year,’ But God’s head of the year is the first day of Spring.
God’s ‘head-of-the-year’ was meant to bring forth memories of when God gave Moses His calendar and first set of instructions for Passover and the Exodus. And it was supposed to turn their focus toward getting ready for Passover, the Feast of Unleavened Bread and First Fruits, their Spring holy convocations with God, in the temple.
The meaning of Yom Teruah has been mysterious; and even that was lost on them over the centuries as it became a silly confetti throwing, noisy, meaningless secular event, even a parade of rebellion. But, the barley ripening method of determining when Spring began, continued to be used to readjust the moon cycles with the sun cycles.
6.2 Glory God Beyond
The determination of the exact day upon which their corrupted Yom Teruah was observed, on their corrupted calendar, was delegated to a civil authority’s discretion. Such may’ve been acceptable on rare conditions such as war or intolerable weather, but they lost the accurate meaning of the naked eye moon sightings when they habitually adjusted it for their own convenience or as an excuse to add an extra day between the end of the previous civil year, for reasons such as an out of sync, unnecessary fine tuning of the time differences between the lunar and solar cycles.
As mentioned above, the Winter’s end leap-months were an attribute of God’s Torah calendar that they maintained, because the scribes and priesthood continued to struggle to keep track of the Torah calendar, until the 2nd temple was destroyed; But it was difficult, partly because their population was doing their own thing, celebrating Rosh Hashanah in the Fall! Even the priesthood eventually became Hellenized: But, when Jesus Christ walked the streets of Jerusalem, leap months were still being used between Winter and Summer; It worked, because it’s an amazingly good calendar. Yet, all this must be why there’s no record of Jesus attending Rosh Hashanah in the Gospels. Sadly, most modern Jews won’t even know what you’re talking about if you mention the terms ‘Yom Teruah’ or ‘Feast of Trumpets’.
After God had the the 2nd temple destroyed, Yom Teruah/Feast of Trumpets, became nothing but a falsity, even with the spirit of celebration of rebellion, although trumpets are still blown.
6.3 Glory God Beyond
Yom Teruah, which means day of shouting and trumpet blowing was commanded by YHWH in Leviticus 23:24 and Numbers 29:1:
It was commanded to be observed by Hebrew Israel as one holy day. And it’s the only holy convocation for which God gave no clear reason for its observance. That’s part of what makes it so mysterious! I believe it was always foreshadowing the urgent warnings that will take place in and around the final years of the Daniel 9 prophesies. The fact that it precedes the ten solemn days of repentance leading up to the Day of Atonement gives us an ominous clue that that Yom Teruah will be used as harbinger in the end times to alert us that the Time of Jacob’s Trouble is drawing near.
It’s become well known that it was also a common phrase among the participants of Yom Teruah to utter ‘no one knows the hour’ regarding when the last trumpet will be blown. That was part of the intrigue as the festival approached the dark night.
According to the Gregorian calendar, yet still based on the imperfect Rabbinical Hebrew Calendar, the date/time for the conclusion of the observation of the Feast of Trumpets 2023 was Sept. 17, the second day of the Rabbinical calendar new year. And something very notable occurred that I call Jesus’s Midnight Portent, a foreshadowing of His Midnight Cry.
The trumpets were blown the day before the UN SDG 2030 Agenda Summit began and the next day, the major agreement was ratified. see
On October 7, 2023, 21 days after those trumpets were blown, and 19 days after the SDG 2030 Agenda was ratified, Hamas brutally attacked Israel at the Nova concert.
There was also one of God’s celestial signs: Comet Nishimura reached its perihelion on Sept. 17, 2023 while it was passing through Leo, representing the Lion of Judah on its way to Virgo, which represents Israel in the Rev. 12 and Purim signs.
6.5 Glory God Beyond
Regarding the Sept. 17, 2023 date I gave above for the Midnight Portent, I said it happened on the ‘conclusion of’ Yom Teruah? Why? Wasn’t it commanded by YHWH as one appointed day? Wasn’t the last trumpet of Yom Teruah supposed to be blown only on the first day of the month?
Ancient traditions developed, for Jews outside Israel, to extend nearly all Torah holy convocations by a day, because of great difficulty keeping track of a Jerusalem-centric lunar calendar from afar; They didn’t want to inadvertently miss the actual day that God commanded. That’s why our calendars for 2023 show both Sept. 16 and Sept. 17 as Feast of Trumpets/Rosh Hashanah. Also, no trumpets at all were blown on Sept. 16 that year because it fell on a weekly Sabbath.
Strangely not blowing trumpets when the Feast of Trumpets falls on a weekly Sabbath came to be the tradition, despite the fact that Feast of Trumpets itself is a High Sabbath, in which trumpet blowing was commanded!
. . . when we refer to Hebrew days by the Gregorian calendar, we go by the date that corresponds to its ‘daylight portion’ otherwise it gets confusing. Example, when we refer to ‘Sept 16’ as the first day of the Hebrew month of Tishri, it’s understood that Tishri 1 actually began, not at midnight, but about six hours before that, at sunset (literally on Sept 15.)

Despite the fact the Jews had the mathematical, Metonic Cycle calendar, possibly as early as around 380 BC, which may have assisted the leaders of the diaspora Jewish communities to keep track, they decided to continue observing the extra days for their supposed holy convocations.
6.7 Glory God Beyond
A very good thing is that at the time Jesus walked the Earth in the flesh, they still hadn’t considered the Metonic calendar to be completely reliable, and so they were continuing to add leap year months at the end of Winter when necessary. The information in the following link was very difficult to come by and may prove important for estimating the date upon which Christ was crucified:
Not until the fourth century did Rabbinical Judaism fully institute the Metonic calendar, which is bad. It corrupted the perfect fractal symmetry that God Almighty built His holy convocations upon. When they did it, Rabbinical authorities had to invent statutes to artificially constrain the days upon which the Feast of Trumpets could start, to Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays or Saturdays, in order to keep other high holy days of that month from falling on ‘undesirable’ days. This does not please God.
Regarding calendars, if that’s not enough, and there’s actually a lot more, including missing years on the Anno Mundi rabbinical calendar. One thing that really demonstrates the degradation of Torah holy convocation time keeping, is that since the Fig Tree Generation put forth its tender shoots and leaves, when the Nation of Israel was re-established in 1948, the Feast of Trumpets continues to be celebrated for two days, even IN ISRAEL!
1 Corinthians 15: 51-52, Behold, I tell you a mystery; we will not all sleep, but we will all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.
Matthew 14:31, And He will send His angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather His elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.
Beyond Yom Teruah, shofars and trumpets were blown in ancient Israel to announce monthly new moons, festivals, coronations of kings, military mobilization, and battle signals. The trumpet was used to signal assembly to march the camps in the wilderness, as a memorial before God during sacrifices, and times of war.
“This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil.”
John 3:19 NIV
But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.
Revelation 21:8 NIV
Who is the liar? It is whoever denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a person is the antichrist—denying the Father and the Son.
“Turn to Me and be saved, all the ends of the earth; For I am God, and there is no other.“Isaiah 45:22
For the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel, has said: “By repentance and rest you would be saved; your strength would lie in quiet confidence–but you were not willing. (Isaiah 30:15)
Therefore Jesus said again, “Very truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep. All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep have not listened to them. I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out, and find pasture.” (John 10: 8-10)

Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him (harvest), That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ (Day of the Lord’s wrath) is at hand. Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come an apostacy first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, lest He be angry and you perish in your rebellion, when His wrath ignites in an instant. Blessed are all who take refuge in Him. (Psalm 2: 11-12)

I (Jesus) am the door; by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and go out, and shall find pasture. (John 10:9)
Someone asked him, “Lord, are only a few people going to be saved? He said to them, Make every effort to enter through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to. (Luke 13: 23-24)

1 John 2:15-17, “Do not love the world or anything in the world.
If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them. For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world.
The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever.”
Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion,then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness.And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death—even death on a cross!Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name,that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose. (Philippians 2: 5-12)

When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, having canceled the charge of our legal indebtedness, which stood against us and condemned us; he has taken it away, nailing it to the cross.

Surrounding the throne were twenty-four other thrones, and seated on them were twenty-four elders. They were dressed in white and had crowns of gold on their heads. From the throne came flashes of lightning, rumblings and peals of thunder. In front of the throne, seven lamps were blazing. These are the seven spirits of God.
Revelation 4:4-5
10.8 Glory God Beyond
Who are the 24 Elders in Our Holy Father’s Throne Room?
I think the 24 elders are the Old Testament saints who Jesus Christ released from captivity in Hades, from the bosom of Abraham. Where did Jesus take them?
I think Jesus brought them to God our Father’s throne room as the first fruits offering of the Barley Harvest of Saints. They may’ve been the ones who had faith in the Son of God Yeshua Messiah before He even came to Earth, as they saw Him, as through a glass darkly.
“Your father Abraham rejoiced at the thought of seeing my day; he saw it and was glad.” (John 8:56)
Only after examining every theory out there in great depth, did I come to that conclusion, but only after the Holy Spirit spoke to me once, when I was going down the wrong track.
Note: As far as I know, the 24 elders were never ‘seen’ in any of the Old Testament prophet’s visions, but God. YHWH mentioned them once to Isaiah (Isa. 24) in a vision of the far future, after the Millennium and before the new Universe, when Earth was torn apart completely. I don’t think God was necessarily indicating that the elders were already in His throneroom before the time when Isaiah lived.
10.9 Glory God Beyond
The 24 Elders as the First Fruits of the Barley Harvest of Souls:
Of the two grape harvests of Rev. 14, I think only the second harvest is the grapes of wrath.
First Fruits of the Barley Harvest may be the ones whose bodies rose from their graves after Jesus died on the cross and later got up and walked into Jerusalem after Jesus Christ was resurrected. They might be the formerly captive souls that Jesus brought up from Sheol and bythe power of Jesus Christ re-entering their bodies; On ascension day, they may have risen at the same time Christ did, meeting Him in the clouds. Christ would’ve brought them to Father Godas the First Fruits, of the Barley Harvest.
Because no one appears before God empty handed: Exodus 3:21, 23:15; Deut. 16:16.
10.10 Glory God Beyond
1 Corinthians 15:20-26 ESV
But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep. For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive. But each in his own order: Christ the first fruits, then at his coming those who belong to Christ.
Then comes the end, when he delivers the kingdom to God the Father after destroying every rule and every authority and power. For He must reign until He has put all His enemies under His feet. The last enemy to be destroyed is death.
Rev. 4:9-11
. . . the twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits on the throne and worship him who lives for ever and ever. They lay their crowns before the throne and say:
“You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they were created and have their being.”
10.11 Glory God Beyond
At times, God has considered certain men to be in His divine assembly.
For example, the ‘gods’ of Psalm 82. They aren’t the same as the 24 elders. The Psalm 82 ‘gods’ were unrighteous, the 24 elders, righteous.
10.12 Glory God Beyond
Psalm 82
God presides in the great assembly; He renders judgment among the ‘gods.’ “How long will you defend the unjust and show partiality to the wicked? Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed. Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked “The ‘gods’ know nothing, they understand nothing. They walk about in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken. “I said, ‘You are ‘gods’; you are all sons of the Most High. But you will die like mere mortals; you will fall like every other ruler.”
Jesus told us who the ‘gods’ of Psalm 82 really were:
Jesus answered them (the Pharisees), “Is it not written in your Law (Psalm 82) ‘I have said you are “gods”’? If he called them ‘gods,’ to whom the word of God came—and Scripture cannot be set aside –what about the one whom the Father set apart as his very own and sent into the world?

They will be herded together like prisoners bound in a dungeon; they will be shut up in prison and be punished after many days.The moon will be dismayed, the sun ashamed; for the Lord Almighty will reign on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem, and before its elders—with great glory.”
Before I understood who the 24 elders really are, the best candidates were the ‘elect angels.’ I’ve left some remnants from the prior argument below because the study elements still glorify Jesus Christ!
From Moses’ song:
Deuteronomy 32: 8-9 “When the Most High apportioned the nations, when He divided humankind, he fixed the boundaries of the peoples according to the number of the ‘gods’ (elohim); the LORD’s own portion was his people, Jacob his allotted share.” (The Septuagint translated elohim to angels.)

And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ. Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;

The last enemy to be destroyed is death. “For God has put everything under His feet “Now when it says that “everything” has been put under him, it is clear that this does not include God himself, who put everything under Christ.

7 Blazing Torches in Front of God’s Throne.
This is a fascinating topic:
St. John saw the seven blazing torches and was told they’re the seven spirits of God. Is that description only focusing on the oil part, since oil represents the Holy Spirit in the Bible? Isn’t the living WORD Jesus Christ the actual light part? But wait . . . there’s no light on lamp stands unless their oil burns;
Let’s examine it:
It makes sense that together the lamp stands symbolize the entire church – all 7 categories or types as described in Rev. 2-3. At the time of St. John’s throne room vision, each lamp stand was in the blazing state desired by God, at a time when they all will have sufficient holy spirit oil, which has been ignited, and flames are being fanned; And all 7 in unison are shining forth the light of truth into the dark world; So it must represent the mature church that Jesus Christ died for, His bride. I think the fact that all 7 are lit shows she’s mature, although she remains on Earth. That means the blazes on the torches serve as a barometer in God’s throne room; It’s indicating to all who’re in the throne room that it’s time for the Lamb of God to take the scroll from His Father’s hand and to begin breaking the seals; thus the 24 elders broke out into song praising Jesus for purchasing ‘them.’ And YHWH handed the scroll to His Son, the Worthy One, His Perfect Sacrificial Lamb.
10.17 Glory God Beyond
Jesus Christ said something to St. John, 8 verses prior to that, which was before St. John ‘looked’ and ‘saw’ an open door in heaven and heard a voice like a trumpet saying “COME UP HERE” and immediately went ‘up’ to God’s throne room: St. John wrote down what Jesus said in Rev. 3:
10.18 Glory God Beyond
Here’s what Jesus Christ said:
“To the angel of the church in Philadelphia write”
These are the words of him who is holy and true, who holds the key of David. What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open.
I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open doorthat no one can shut.
I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept My word and have not denied My name.I will make those who are of the synagogue of Satan, who claim to be Jews though they are not, but are liars—I will make them come and fall down at your feet and acknowledge that I have loved you.Since you have kept My command to endure patiently,
I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come on the whole world to test the inhabitants of the earth.I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.
The one who is victorious I will make a pillar in the temple of my God. Never again will they leave it. I will write on them the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God; and I will also write on them my new name.Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches.(Rev. 3:1-13)
10.19 Glory God Beyond
The ‘open door’ concept is described twice in a row, first in Rev. 3:8 and then in Rev. 4:1.
The greater context: The Book of Revelation opens with St John’s vision of Jesus Christ walking among 7 lamp stands; He tells us what they are:
I turned around to see the voice that was speaking to me. And when I turned I saw seven golden lamp stands, and among the lamp stands was someone like a son of man, dressed in . . . (It’s Jesus in His Glory.) The mystery of the seven stars that you saw in my right hand and of the seven golden lamp standsis this: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lamp stands are the seven churches. . . (Rev. 1:12-13, 20)
Then Jesus gives a ‘progress report’ to each church. And at the end of each progress report, seven times, He concludes with, “Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”
10.20 Glory God Beyond
After that, St. John is transported to heaven and he sees this:
From the throne came flashes of lightning, rumblings and peals of thunder. In front of the throne,seven torches were blazing. These are the seven spirits of God. (Rev. 4:5)
In St. John’s first vision on the island of Patmos, he didn’t mention whether the lamp stands that Jesus walked among were lit or not. The focus was on the churches. A church isn’t the flame, but the device that holds up the oil, and the flame, if it’s lit. It’s the responsibility of a church and it’s congregation to spark and fan the flame and to not quench the Holy Spirit.
I like this picture; but there’s no need here for each of the seven lamp stands have more than one lamp.
10.21 Glory God Beyond
What sparks the flame and what fans the flames of the Holy Spirit to make a blaze?
Jesus seems to have said that it’s listening and hearing what the spirit says to the churches. How do we hear what He said? I think we better read Rev. 2-3!
(((excerpts)))
To Ephesus, Rev. 2:7, “Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who is victorious, I will give the right to eat from the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.”
To Smyrna, Rev. 2:11, “Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches. The one who is victorious will not be hurt at all by the second death.”
Pergamum, Rev. 2:17, “Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who is victorious, I will give some of the hidden manna. I will also give that person a white stone with a new name written on it, known only to the one who receives it.”
To Thyatira, Rev. 2:26-29, “To the one who is victorious and does my will to the end, I will give authority over the nations— that one ‘will rule them with an iron scepter and will dash them to pieces like pottery’ – just as I have received authority from my Father. I will also give that one the morning star. Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”
To Sardis, Rev. 3:3-6, “Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; hold it fast, and repent. But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you. . . . Yet you have a few people in Sardis who have not soiled their clothes. They will walk with me, dressed in white, for they are worthy. The one who is victorious will, like them, be dressed in white. I will never blot out the name of that person from the book of life, but will acknowledge that name before my Father and his angels. Hold it fast, and repent. Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”
To Philadelphia, Rev. 3:11-13, “I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown. The one who is victorious I will make a pillar in the temple of my God. Never again will they leave it. I will write on them the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God; and I will also write on them my new name. Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”
To Laodicea, Rev. 3:19-22, “Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hearsmy voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me. Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”
10.22 Glory God Beyond
The rewards that Jesus promised point to the time of the end of the age:
The Church of Philadelphia was given the promise by Jesus that they’d be kept from the hour of trial that was coming upon the whole world;So, the 7 churches must be representative of all the churches that have continued to exist from the first century to the time until the end, because the hour of trial that comes upon the whole world, that Jesus spoke of, is the beginning of great tribulation.
Recap: In Revelation 4:1, St John looks and sees a door: “After this I looked, and there before me was a door standing open in heaven. And the voice I had first heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this.”
10.23 Glory God Beyond
. . . Rev. 4: 2-3-5, “At once I was in the Spirit, and there before me was a throne in heaven with someone sitting on it. And the one who sat there had the appearance of jasper and ruby. A rainbow that shone like an emerald encircled the throne. Surrounding the throne were twenty-four other thrones, and seated on them were twenty-four elders. They were dressed in white and had crowns of gold on their heads. From the throne came flashes of lightning, rumblings and peals of thunder. In front of the throne, seven lamps were blazing. These are the seven spirits of God.”
‘7’ is God’s number of perfect completion and can be likened to 100%. There is only ‘one’ ‘1’ Holy Spirit; God is completely holy, therefore I’m sure God would never uphold or edify ‘other’ spirits in front Himself, as a central feature in His throne room, as He sits on His throne; Therefore the Holy Spirit, who is eternally present with God Almighty, must be ‘seven fold’ in its ‘oneness.’ This is my opinion, but it’s strongly backed by the fact that Jesus Christ as the Lamb of God, had 7 horns on its head in St. John’s throne room vision, and the amazing fact that Father God designed the entire time scheme of this universe according to ‘7’s’. Accordingly, the Holy Spirit can be represented by 7’s in ways other ways; The seven eyes in the head of the Lamb of God were described as ‘the seven spirits of God’ in Rev. 5:6. And then there are times when the Holy Spirit is distributed differently, such as with the earnests distributed among all the saints, and possibly even 4 chariots in Zechariah.I deduce that all the saints who’ve received the Holy Spirit, must fit into one of the seven ‘church types’, whether or not they’re a part of a traditional church congregation.
. . . turned around to see the voice that was speaking to me. And when I turned I saw seven golden lamp stands, and among the lamp stands was someone like a son of man . . . . Rev. 1:12-13
10.24 Glory God Beyond
Does the presence of the 7 blazing torches/lamp stands in God’s throne room, indicate that the church will have already have been physically redeemed before the Lamb of God takes the scroll from the hand of our Holy Heavenly Father?
Don’t be confused by this picture, St John didn’t see those two additional menorahs in Gods throne room. That’s an artist’s rendition that symbolically represents the Old and New Covenants – two betrothals.
Consider our precedent – The Earthly Temple of God: Did the flames of God’s heavenly menorah go out when the flames of the menorah in the earthly temple went out?
Of course, I’m not implying that would mean the Holy Spirit would cease to exist!
What I’m suggesting only regards the menorah as being a beautiful device that acts like a barometer indicating to God and all who enter His throne room, the condition of the relationship with His betrothed, while she’s still on Earth. A historical example, when she wasn’t in good standing, such as when the priesthood was causing the Holy Spirit to grieve and God’s covenant people were sinning badly, the flames would grow dim.
That happened after the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ. The Sanhedrin, Pharisees and the Jews of the nation as a whole, were held responsible for it by God Almighty. After that, the flames of their menorah continued to go out for 40 yrs, then God destroyed the 2nd temple.
What I just described has been recorded by the Jews in their Talmud: “The flames continuously blew out for 40 years, and also the temple doors kept flying open and the red cord never again turned white.“
.
After the 2nd temple was destroyed, there was an enormous change:
A new nation of priests to God had taken its stand as the church of Jesus Christ.
Christ’s church is 7 fold; There are 7 types:
The church is also represented by 7 lamps in God’s throne room, which, I believe, stands for the strength of its relationship with God.
The main difference is that since individual saints are considered to be the living stones of God’s living temple, there’s no longer any need keep a flame burning continuously in a physical menorah in a masonry temple on Earth because the saints themselves are the light of the world. Every saint drinks of the same Holy Spirit, who indwells each one. Such is what holds the living temple together and makes it possible for spiritual light to shine. The physical light on the lamp stands in God’s throne room can be likened to the words of spiritual light that shine forth from believers who speak truth.
10.25 Glory God Beyond
Something very significant happened after the Lamb of God took the scroll from His Father’s hand, but before He broke the first seal. The 24 elders sang “You have made them(not us) to be a kingdom of priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth.” Notice that it’s in the past tense ‘you have made’. So Jesus had already ‘made’ His kingdom of priests. They’re ready, but that doesn’t necessarily mean His kingdom of priests had been transported to heaven, before the time when the 24 elders sang their song. As the 24 elders could’ve known that Jesus’ Kingdom is ‘ready’ just by observing the quality of the blazes on the 7 torches standing before the Lamb. If the bride of Christ had already been transported to heaven, why wouldn’t they have literally been seen there by St John, as he saw the tribulation saints standing before the throne of God at the sixth seal?
Finally, Jesus Christ will Rule the World as King Over All Nations.
And, His beloved resurrected saints will serve Him faithfully on Earth, as judges and priests for a thousand years. Some will be made princes and kings over the remaining nations.
10.26 Glory God Beyond
He’ll rule His Millennial Kingdom with an iron rod to fulfill God’s promises to Abraham. And, He’ll defeat all remaining dark powers and authorities before returning the universe to God His/Our Father.
Differing interpretations of the neglected Isaiah 24 chapter:
My interpretation is that, 1,000 yrs before the evens of Isaiah 24 happen, after the greatest tribulation/ the Time of Jacobs’ Trouble has come to His victorious conclusion, Jesus Christ will, with great power, rapidly and supernaturally, repair and greatly revive this Earth, eliminating nuclear radiation and toxic waste, etc.; Then He will rule the Kingdom that God that promised to Abraham’s descendants, including all those of the spiritual seed of faith in Jesus Christ who will rule beside Him. In that way God delays His final destruction of this Earth until all His promises to Abraham have been fulfilled.
And only then will God the Father create the New Heavens and New Earth.
A response to the interpretation that He will destroy Earth before the Millennial Kingdom:
It doesn’t make sense for the promises God made to Abraham to not be fulfilled on this same Earth.
Part of the Glory of Jesus Christ is: He has the power and will demonstrate that He can make this corrupt fallen world into a just world via an iron rod, before He annihilates it. We know there will be one brief final rebellion at the end of Jesus Christ’s Millennial Kingdom, just before His Great White Throne Judgment. But contrary to the Time of Jacob’s Trouble, there’s no real tribulation, since the rebellion is instantly and completely put down. There will be no more second chances.
Regarding the consummation of this present era, God said He’ll cut his wrath short to save some flesh, due to His elect; In comparison, Isaiah 24 seems much more intensely dramatic, general and horrifically condensed, as if God finally gets to spend that last part of His wrath, the part He held back tightly for the sake of His last remaining elect, before the Millennium. You might rightly ask: Doesn’t Matt. 24 say there will be no greater tribulation? There’s a big difference between going through prolonged tribulation, which includes amplified temptations and very real heart wrenching soul choices- entire future hanging in the balance – as long as salvation is still possible, and simply being annihilated, no matter how spectacularly.
So, there will be no cutting short and no holding back by God that time. Those who belong to Christ and have already received their glorified bodies will not be hurt by it. The uprising against Jerusalem will be put down very quickly. It’s the final Gog Magog rebellion and it will be very short lived. Satan will finally be thrown into the lake of fire where the beast and false prophet will have already been for a 1,000 years.

In My Father’s house are many abodes. If it were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and welcome you into My presence, so that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going.”…

John 17:9
“I am praying for them. I am not praying for the world but for those whom you have given me, for they are yours.”
Doubting Thomas of John 20:24-29
“Now Thomas (also known as Didymus, one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came.So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord!
But he said to them, “Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.”
.” A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!” . Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.” . Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!” . Then Jesus told him, “Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
We’re very close in time to being gathered by our Savior, Jesus Christ. I’m going to address the the timing of the Fig Tree Generation. It’s essential! The ‘fig tree’ is an Old Testament symbol for National Israel.
Jesus Christ, God the Son, instructs us to learn the ‘Parable of the Fig Tree’ in order to know when He will be at the door.(A time indicator relevant to all three crops of souls)
32Now learn the parable of the fig tree: When its branch already may have become tender and it puts forth leaves, you know that the summer is near. 33So also you, when you see all these things, know that He is near, at the doors. 34Truly I say to you that this generation will not have passed away until all these things shall have taken place. 35The heaven and the earth will pass away, but My words shall not pass away. (Matt. 24:32-36 BLB)
Parables have deeper meanings, especially those of Jesus Christ!
Jesus isn’t merely using an obvious ‘one thing follows another’ metaphor here, as some people say. Jesus could have chosen any example for that. Parables were difficult to understand and that was intentional.see Matt. 13:13 . . .
Before I explain the fig tree parable, in the rest of this post, unfortunately, I must get a few things out of the way; Sadly, this passagehas been tampered with over the centuries.
Please jump to mark 11.2 to skip the hard analyses for now.
It’s one of the areas of the Bible that’s been manipulated, such as the word ‘He’ in the above Matt. 24:33 verse; It’s been translated as ‘it’ in the KJB and NKJV, but ‘He’ in most the other’s. I checked the word in Greek, and it’s the same word in original manuscripts, both the Textus Receptus and the Nestle-Aland. It’s really an informal version of the name of God, YHWH – I AM!So ‘it’ is hopelessly incorrect.
ἐστιν (estin) Verb – Present Indicative Active – 3rd Person Singular Strong’s 1510: I am, exist. The first person singular present indicative; a prolonged form of a primary and defective verb; I exist.
Here’s the passage again; Let’s take a closer look:
32Now learn the parable of the fig tree: When its branch already may have become tender and it puts forth leaves, you know that the summer is near. 33So also you, when you see all these things, know that He is near, at the doors. 34Truly I say to you that this generation will not have passed away until all these things shall have taken place. 35The heaven and the earth will pass away, but My words shall not pass away. (Matt. 24:32-37 BLB) 36No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. (Matt. 24:32-37 BSB)
Additionally, an artificial page break has been added between verses 35 and 36, making it appear that the ‘no one knows the day and hour’ verse is especially connected with Matt the 24:37 verse as opposed to the Matt. 14:35 verse
36No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. (Matt. 24:32-36 BSB)
37As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be at the coming of the Son of Man. (Matt. 24:37 NIV)
And in verse 37, many translations have added the word ‘But’, which is not in the Greek, at the beginning of the verse. That also artificially and tightly attaches it to verse 36, leading the novice reader directly into the trap of assuming there is no question but that verse 36 is referring to verse 37. But that is not at all certain! It’s merely an attempt to enhance a popular interpretation.
Let’s leave that part alone for now and examine the key word ‘generation.’
11.1 Fig, Glory God Beyond
The Fig Tree ‘generation’ term is presented in the Gospels of Matthew (24:34) and Mark (13:30)
Jesus said that ‘this generation’ will not pass away before His return.
What generation?
The word ‘this’ was referring to the generation that He’d been warning us about from verses 15 to 34. That’s the Olivet Discourse passage that starts with the abomination of desolation and instructions for the Jews to flee from the greatest tribulation of all time, warning them not to believe in false messiahs, and concluding with great signs in the heavens and His being seen coming from the East like lightening by everybody on Earth sending His angels to gather His elect.
Here are all those verses, :
15Therefore when you shall see ‘the abomination of desolation,’ having been spoken of by the prophet Daniel, standing in the holy place–the one reading, let him understand–then those in Judea, let them flee to the mountains; the one on the housetop, do not let him come down to take anything out of his house; and the one in the field, do not let him return back to take his cloak. And woe to those having in womb, and to the ones nursing infants in those days! But pray that your flight might not be in winter, nor on a Sabbath. For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, and never shall be. And unless those days had been shortened, no flesh would have been saved; but because of the elect, those days will be shortened. Then if anyone says to you, ‘Behold, here is the Christ,’ or ‘Here,’ do not believe it. For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will give great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect. Behold, I have foretold you. Therefore if they say to you, ‘Behold, He is in the wilderness,’ do not go forth; or ‘Behold, in the inner rooms,’ do not believe. For just as the lightning comes forth from the east and shines as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. For wherever the carcass may be, there the vultures will be gathered. And immediately after the tribulation of those days: ‘The sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.’ And then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn. And they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory. 34And He will send His angels with a great trumpet call, and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from the ends of the heavens to the ends thereof. (Matt. 24:15-34)
The ‘1st heaven’ includes our sky, angels will pass through it.
It couldn’t be clearer that Jesus was talking about the final generation.
When was this generation born? When will they by gone? Most likely, it began on May 14, 1948 when Israel was reborn as a nation in one day.
Who has ever heard of such things? Who has ever seen things like this? Can a country be born in a day or a nation be brought forth in a moment? Yet no sooner is Zion in labor than she gives birth to her children. (Isaiah 66:8)
The term ‘generation’ has been used for ‘life span’ in the Old Testament, but that was an observation made by Moses about how the times were about 3,400 yrs ago. But the following from a Psalm of King David is somewhat more recent.
The length of our days is seventy years—or eighty if we are strong—yet their pride is but labor and sorrow, for they quickly pass, and we fly away. (Psalm 90:10 BSB)
So, since it can change, I’m going by the modern statistics:
83.8 yrs is the average lifespan in Israel now. Starting on May 14, 1948 adding 83 yrs lands on Oct. 2031. On my Final Week Date Estimate Chart, Christ’s gathering of the gleanings of the grape harvest of the Jews landed on April 23, 2031 AD (Nisan 30, 31 ADT). That’s a good match!
Old Testament Examples when God saw Figs for Israelites
When I found Israel, it was like finding grapes in the desert; when I saw your ancestors, it was like seeing the early fruit on the fig tree.
Hosea 9:10
Now here Figs are used in the Old Testament to represent the conditions of different groups of Israelites.
After the exile, God showed Jeremiah two baskets of figs, one with good figs representing the exiled people of Judah and the other with bad figs representing those remaining in Jerusalem. (Jeremiah 24)
11.3 Fig, Glory God Beyond,
In the following quote, God Almighty calls Israel:
My Vine and My Fig Tree!
The context is the end time army of locusts and worms having come against Israel’s land. (Joel 1)
Joel 1:7 “It made My vine into a desolation and My fig tree into a ruin; it has torn it down and has cast it away and its branches are white.”
11.4 Fig, Glory God Beyond
The Joel 1:7 metaphor is about a single vine and ‘a single fig tree’ not the multitude of agricultural vines, fig trees and other crops growing throughout the land, which were destroyed by the locusts and the worms. What God is referring to as My Fig Tree is unequivocally His people Israel. I’m not saying the land wasn’t also devastated, it will be; But, that was all the crops.
11.5 Fig, Glory God Beyond
In the New Testament:
An enacted parable:
The next day as they were leaving Bethany, Jesus was hungry.Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to find out if it had any fruit. When he reached it, he found nothing but leaves, because it was not the season for figs. Then he said to the tree, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again.” And his disciples heard him say it. . . . Then; . . . On reaching Jerusalem, Jesus entered the temple courts and began driving out those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves, and would not allow anyone to carry merchandise through the temple courts. And as he taught them, he said, “Is it not written: ‘My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations? But you have made it ‘a den of robbers.’ The chief priests and the teachers of the law heard this and began looking for a way to kill him, for they feared him, because the whole crowd was amazed at his teaching. Then; When evening came, Jesus and his disciples went out of the city. In the morning, as they went along, they saw the fig tree withered from the roots. Peter remembered and said to Jesus, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree you cursed has withered!
Jesus Messiah was making a point about the fruitlessness of the condition that the Jews were in, especially based on their behavior in the temple courts. He cursed the fig tree so it died to demonstrate and help explain the meaning behind His soon to come destruction of God’s temple in Jerusalem.
In Matthew 21:22, Jesus strongly indicated that FAITH is the most desired fruit.
Some verses inMatthew and Luke are about the fruit of trees in general:
But when John (the baptist) saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his place of baptism, he said to them, “You brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the coming wrath? Produce fruit, then, in keeping with repentance. And do not presume to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham (the mostly gentile church). The axe lies ready at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.
Matt. 3:7-10
11.8 Fig, Glory God Beyond
For I tell you, God is able from these stones to raise up children for Abraham. Even now the axe is laid to the root of the trees. Every tree therefore that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.”
Luke’s version: He said therefore to the crowds that came out to be baptized by him, “You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Bear fruits in keeping with repentance. And do not begin to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father’…
Compare the Fig Tree to the Olive Tree, which is God’s primary symbol for ‘spiritual’ Israel because its oil represents the Holy Spirit.
11.9 Fig, Glory God Beyond
The true church of Jesus Christ is not grafted on to the Fig Tree of national Israel, it’s grafted onto the olive tree.
But if some of the branches were broken off, and you (the church), although a wild olive shoot, were grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing root of the olive tree, do not be arrogant toward the other branches. . .
If you are, remember it is not you who support the root, but the root that supports you.Then you will say, “Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.”That is true. They were broken off because of their unbelief, but you stand fast through faith. So do not become proud, but fear.For if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you. (Romans 11:11-21)
I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness; I saw your fathers as the first ripe in the fig tree at her first time: but they went to Baal-peor, and separated themselves unto that shame; and their abominations were according as they loved… Hosea 9:10
What more could I have done for my vineyard that I have not already done? When I expected sweet grapes, why did my vineyard give me bitter grapes? Isaiah 5:4 NLT
Ever since the horribly adulterous incident at Mt. Sinai, when Moses came down the mountain with the original marriage covenant, the Ten Commandments, and found the Israelites worshiping the golden calf idol with revelry, making a festival at what would have been the time of new wine (if they’d had crops) God has mainly described Israel as ‘wild grapes.’
BUT God also said this:
This is what the Lord says: “As when juice is still found in a cluster of grapes and people say, ‘Don’t destroy it, there is still a blessing in it,’ so will I do in behalf of my servants; I will not destroy them all. I will bring forth descendants from Jacob, and from Judah those who will possess my mountains; my chosen people will inherit them, and there will my servants live. (Isaiah 65:8-9)
11.11 Fig, Glory God Beyond
There is such a thing as Good Grapes of Jewish Israel! The good grapes aren’t the whole nation, they aren’t the whole clusters; they’re found as individual grapes and small clusters. Since there are ‘good grapes’ that’s why I’ve written about the harvest of the remnant Jews as being the Good Grape Harvest.
The following is about the fruit of the vine of the Church:
11.12 Fig, Glory God Beyond
I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful. You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.
John 15:1-8
To myself and all of us: Please pay very close attention!
Our blessed hope is in Jesus Christ to take us through His Open Door or to come snatch us up to meet Him in the clouds, trusting that He will bring us on a peaceful pilgrimage to heaven where we’ll be full of joy when we meet our Holy, Heavenly, loving, perfect, eternal Father: WE will tabernacle with them, even in the New Jerusalem. And we might even witnesses Jesus Christ’s majestic coronation as King of the Universe! (Unless He’s already been officially crowned!) Oh eternal adoration beyond words! Finally we’ll be invited to His Majestic Wedding Feast – hopefully as His bride! Then we’ll be by His side forever and ever, including for His spectacular Parousia – all of us with Him on shining white horses, galloping on air, closely behind Him, our Lord, who’s leading us on His most special white horse, as He carries out the conclusion of themost SPECTACULAR VICTORY of ALL TIME!
The only person in the universe worthy to break the seals of the scroll of the Deed to the Earth is Jesus Christ the Lamb of God. As Jesus Christ breaks the first, second, and third seals, their effects pile up and compound, only peaking when He breaks the fourth seal:
But just before catastrophe reaches the point where it’d scourge His bride, He will redeem her from Earth.
When I first started this post, the first seal of the scroll, of the Deed to the Earth, seemed to have already been broken by Jesus Christ from God’s Throne Room in Heaven…
. . . but since Sept. 23 ’25 three or perhaps even all four horsemen seem to have begun their marches!
Under the First Seal
When Jesus Christ breaks the first seal, the first horseman, the one who rides a white horse carrying a bow with no arrow and wearing a crown of achievement is released.
Presenting with a ‘stephanos’ crown doesn’t exclude the first horseman from being a king.
Even King Jesus wore one once (Rev. 14).
This First Horseman of the Apocalypse is the ‘little horn’ the future Antichrist, before he displaces the three horns/kings of Daniel 7:8.
The White Horseman is thought to represent ‘false peace,’ but in the ancient world, a rider on a white horse represented conquering victory. This rider does conquer, for awhile, but since he carries no arrow for his bow, he conquers by diplomacy and deceptive strategy, most likely presenting himself as a sheep, when he’s really a wolf. He’s the ultimate crafty user of deception with both subtle and blatant, seduction, bribery, propaganda, flattery, threats and much more. Those techniques themselves are a type of sorcery, but this rider also represents much darker occult practices.
How we know that is: Those are among the techniques used by his foreshadower, Antiochus IV Epiphanes, who’s called a ‘King of the North’ in a series of ‘kings of the North’ described in Daniel 11:21-24. (In the history of Bible conquering of Israel, whenever a nation conquered ‘from the north’, it meant that the armies approached Israel or Judah from the North, not necessarily that the lands they came from were actually in the North. Nations attacked from the North because the Upper Great Rift Valley prevented armies from reaching them from the East.) Antiochus IV Epiphanies is the only character in the Bible specifically labeled as a despicable man. Although he was the actual king of the Seleucids, for a short while, according to Daniel 11 he was not treated with honor.
And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honor of royalty: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries. Daniel 11:21
Who did Antiochus Epiphanes foreshadow?
He may’ve foreshadowed both the Antichrist and the final ‘King of the North’ of Daniel 11, assuming they’ll be aligned and similar in character. I speculate that the final ‘King of the North’ will likely be the right hand man of Gog-the-Antichrist. Gog, the chief prince of Magog, is one of the titles of the Antichrist, see post 27. The Beast is a Gog, for irrefutable proof: https://alephtav.blog/2024/08/07/27-gog/; Magog is described in Genesis as the dominant tribe of Japheth, the Caucasians, and the term ‘Magog’ is used to indicate the four corners of Earth in Rev. 20.
A little background . . After the Tower of Babel, Magog spread the farthest and widest conquering other nations. But, since the Antichrist will be the chief ruler of the world, he must also have a crucial role in fulfilling the end time prophesies centered on Jerusalem.
This will apparently be accomplished, in part, through the final ‘King of the North,’ who’ll be directly involved in the face off toward Jerusalem, ‘pitching his tents between the two seas‘.
That area is Gaza, which mentioned by name in the Bible.
And he will pitch the tents of his royal pavilion between the seas and the beautiful Holy Mountain; yet he will come to his end, and no one will help him. (Daniel 11:45)
It’s 49 miles from Gaza to Jerusalem and about 58.7 miles from Jabalia, Gaza to the Dead Sea. Megiddo, where the final end time battle will take place is not ‘between the two seas’ so the King of the North is not the actually the Antichrist. Since he dies at the prior battle, he can’t be.
Jared Kushner’s Project Sunrise plan for Gaza. Hmmm! Can’t make this stuff up! I don’t think Kushner is the king of the North, but he is certainly going to make Gaza more accessible to the king of the North; Even if his construction doesn’t get very far, it’ll gives access privileges to many of Israel’s enemies under the guise of peace and security.
What Jared Kushner Just Did May Stir The WRATH of God! (The Gaza Prophecy)
The relatively quiet events under the first seal makes the particular year in which Jesus Christ broke it less obvious; The historical credentials bolstering the white horse rider’s station may have taken satan centuries to build up. God allowed it, but Jesus Christ has been ‘holding the reigns’ at just the right level, not releasing the first restraining seal, until the perfect moment according to His perfect plan.
Sept. 17, 2023 could have been the day the Precious Lamb of God broke the first seal:
I’ve written in other posts about why I call that day the ‘Midnight Cry Portent,’ which happened 6 months before the start of the 70th week of Daniel at sunset on the day the Aleph Tav solar eclipse sign across America concluded, according to my calculations. See post 4.The Countdown, link below.
14.2 Deed, Glory God Beyond
It’s very significant that the event was announced with trumpet blasts, as it happened immediately following the 2023 Yom Teruah/Feast of Trumpets. The event culminated with the ratifying of the Sustained Development Goals 2030 Agenda.
Every nation signed it, but the one whose really behind it didn’t need to. see link below, 13. The Scarlet Beast
Unfortunately, this is its logo: The agenda was a powerful strengthening, for 7 more years, of a prior 7 year United Nations agreement. That’s why it garnered a lot of attention from watchers; Unfortunately, most of their videos have been shunned by search engines. But, thank God, many can still be accessed from a list I made: See bottom of post 3. Midnight Cry Portent. This event may have even awakened some sleeping Christians from their slumber, because it seemed to perfectly match the Daniel 9:27 ‘agreement with many.’ That’s at least as it appears in most translations today, which are derived from the Masoretic text. It certainly did serve the purpose as major HEADS UP for those with ears to hear.
Why is its logo is offensive? . . . see post 8
Counting from that day brings a large swath of the end time Biblical calendar together, but as mentioned above, it’s not the event that began the first year of the final week of years of this age.
The first seal of the scroll of the Deed to the Earth, which God Almighty hands to His Precious Lamb, releases a white horseman carrying a bow with no arrow who sets forth to conquer.
Genesis 9: 13-15
I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth. And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.
The expiration of God’s final 7 years for mankind’s rebellion that lands on March 24, 2030 AD (Torah calendar begins in Spring), overlaps with the very year that the SDG 2030 Agenda expires.
Although it’s not exact, the Olympic logo is reminiscent of a rainbow, and its outer rings reminiscent of a bow.
The 7 rings represent the 7 continents coming together for one purpose. The rebellion of mankind at Babel was when all humanity came together for the solitary purpose of reaching heaven without God.
14.4 Deed, Glory God Beyond
Most of humanity is clueless, swallowing up anything titillating. That’s how they get brainwashed to accept the enemy. The Antichrist, the first horseman of the apocalypse, will most likely eventually be possessed by Satan or Abaddon, who are fallen angels, symbolized by the wings here.
14.5 Deed, Glory God Beyond
Still skeptical? The inverted pentagram sphere, representing Earth being embraced by spiritual darkness, was the center peace for the Winter Olympics in Milan. They called it the cauldron.
Point in case: The spirit of Antichrist is rising and it’s being openly celebrated.
The Second Seal -War Horse Rider
When Jesus Christ breaks the second seal, He releases the red horse, who’s rider is either an angel, like the horsemen in Zechariah 1, or a spirit of God being represented symbolically.(Zech. 6, describes 4 chariots being driven by many horses of the same colors or coats as those in Rev. 6. And they’re said to be ‘the four spirits of God’.)
The Rider of the Red Horse Carries a Sword and Removes Peace from Earth.
Since God’s prophesies are ultimately Jerusalem-centric we might consider the red horse when we examine the Hamas brutal attack on Israel which took place at the Nova Concert on Oct. 7, 2023, which killed over 1,200 people, torturing many of them, even children, in ways that are actually unspeakable, due to their supernatural hate; That part has been completely hidden from most of the public, including those who only watch mainstream news outlets. And it happened just 21 days after Yom Teruah/Feast of Trumpets 2023.
’21’
. . . is one of the most highly symbolic numbers in the Bible, even regarding time.
’21’ is the number of God in His triune nature: 3 x 7.
14.6 Deed, Glory God Beyond
The Hamas massacre happened 21 days after Yom Teruah/Feast of Trumpets; But this is making it look like Jesus broke the second seal on Sept. 17 ’23 not the first seal. Which is it? Well, that wasn’t the first attack on Israel, since it became a nation again in 1948; And the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse are ultimately global, so let’s think it through.
On the Oct. 2, ’24 Yom Teruah/Feast of Trumpets, the UN Pact for the Future was signed by 193 nations, this time giving unprecedented power to the UN. (See posts 3, 5, 6 & 8.) It changed the UN from a cooperative entity to a governing entity and the atmosphere of the world changed completely.
Since then, extreme war threats have been escalating. Since Trump got into office on Jan. 20 ’25, after winning the election on Nov, 5 ’24, which was one month after Yom Teruah. Bombings and threats of nuclear bombings have become daily news. This is the bigger ‘removal of peace from Earth’ shift. It can be argued that Israel has become even more central now on the world stage, as the screw has taken a turn; The Russia Ukraine war gets less attention because the situation with oil has drastically increased world tensions; There are many nuclear threats; The nuclear code channels are full of traffic. All that’s why I think October 2 ’24 is more likely to have been the day Jesus Christ will have broken the second seal.
Removing His bride is the indirect way in which the Lamb of God will bring about the removal of the one nation on Earth who has been, in someways, holding back the Beast System. That of course, is the United States.
14.8 Deed, Glory God Beyond
A portion of the church will departupward
the rest are already departing downward –
the two sides of the the apostasy:
by C.J. Lovik 2024: The Mystery of Apostasy. God’s Word reveals the TRUTH!
God’s restrainer has been using the USA to hold back the Beast System.
Only the United States of America has been holding back the World Bank Digital Currency
I’m not saying the motives were good, just that it happened. Perhaps Trump merely wants to set up the Beast’s monetary system himself, so that it’ll stem from the US, and America wasn’t ready yet due to its AI immaturity.
Trump Just Delayed the Beast System-But He Can’t Stop What’s Coming
The Luciferians have someone they’re preparing to call the Christ. It’s the spirit of Apollo – the son of satan – in some bodily form. Their method of deception is that they do some very good things publicly that are real; but they have a different agenda. They balance things out with a equal measure of pure evil and then some. There will be many false Christs at the end and we don’t know which one will sit in God’s temple. Islam has it’s own version. Perhaps those two will morph into one. A point of interest: D. Trump has images of Apollo all over on the inside the White House.
Update late 2025: The US is likely to bomb Iran again. The latest international force is set to take over Gaza, with Trump requiring Israel to give back the part they’d conquered at great cost to themselves and which is still God’s land. So, I can’t say that America is really standing for Israel. There’s another agenda going on there. In fact, since America’s leading the non-Israeli control of that land: WOE to America. God will bring judgment.
January 23 ’26, Important Update:The Board of Peace was ratified at Davos.
For you are fully aware that the Day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. While people are saying, “Peace and security,” destruction will come upon them suddenly, like labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape. But you, brothers, are not in the darkness so that this day should overtake you like a thief. (1 Thess. 2-4)
When Jesus Christ harvests His bride, the portion of the Holy Spirit who resides in her will be removed from the world, including from the USA. But, it’s been the U.S.A. that’s been the most truly Christ following nation in recent centuries, evidenced by the fact that, even with the currently falling away, but not completely ‘fallen’ state of Jesus Christ‘s church in America, it was the only powerful nation that stood strong for Israel.
Revelation’s Silence About America Isn’t an Accident—It’s a Prophetic Clue
Jesus Christ working with the Holy Spirit is the restrainer.
I think the Holy Spirit’s works in large part through Christ’s body/church, but not completely:
The way in which the Holy Spirit’s removal, the part of Him who resides in the bride of Christ, will effect the world, will be disproportionately according to how the USA responds to the loss. When the church is gone the Luciferian ‘false light’ will quickly take over America.
Although I know God Almighty has been using dispensations, contrary to the popular oversimplified model, I’ve always held that God’s final week of years will begin before the great tribulation, which will begin at the breaking of the fourth seal of the scroll by Jesus Christ. The fourth horseman of the apocalypse is the great tribulation (not to be confused with the greatEST tribulation/God’s wrath, which begins immediately after that). Simultaneously or very soon after Jesus Christ breaks the fourth seal, and just before the actual ‘hour of trial’ that Jesus spoke of in Rev. 3:10, comes upon the whole Earth, Jesus Christ will harvest His bride.
I deduce that the great tribulation will last about a year, but it could be shorter if it’s mostly nuclear; 1/4 of humanity will perish. (Rev. 6:8)
In Rev. 6:9, after Jesus Christ breaks the fifth seal, the souls of God’s barley harvest martyrs, who were killed during the great tribulation, appear under God Almighty’s alter, crying out for justice. God responds immediately, as evidenced by this: Jesus Christ breaks the 6th seal, and after the 144,000 and the tribulation saints are ‘safe’, GOD’S WRATHbegins; It’s followed by a one of a kind ominous marker, the ‘half hour of silence’ in heaven, the prelude to the 7 Trumpet Judgments!
The ‘hour of trial’ will begin immediately after Jesus Christ harvests His bride, approximately two years into Daniel’s 70th week, and the 3rd temple will quickly go up after that. The greatest tribulation, which is God’s wrath might begin as soon as; Oct. 1, ’27. It fits the timeline. See:
Hold on to your heart dear brethren! I didn’t imply that the bride of Jesus Christ, who will be removed from the whole Earth, only comes from America!
I’m only saying that when Jesus Christ harvests His bride, the greatest effect it will have on the world, will be to put and end to the restraining power of the United States. The US will no longer be able to hold back the Beast System. After the bride is removed, the USA will fall deeply into the Beast System and may even lead it.
Perhaps shocked and horrified, formerly nominal Christians,will make up the bulk of the 5th seal martyrs, and hopefully they’ll get out of here very quickly, as the gleanings of the barley harvest. Perhaps, they’ll ‘wake up’ after seeing the owners portion of the barley harvest get removed from Earth, and will be almost instantly martyred, killed in a wild rush by a myriad of dark entities that will instantly come flooding after them, during the hour of testing. Or perhaps God has another reason for certain saints being the martyrs. In Rev. 2 the church of Smyrna was not reprimanded for anything at all when they were basically told they were to be the martyr church. The reason I think they might go up so fast is partly because there are exactly 10 days between Ascension Day and Pentecost. (Update: Ascension day May 16 ’26 AD is my next highest watch day.)
Do not be afraid of what you are about to suffer. I tell you, the devil will put some of you in prison to test you, and you will suffer persecution for ten days. Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you life as your victor’s crown. (Rev. 2:10)
After all the saints of the barley harvest are gone form Earth, the main part of the restrainer the Holy Spirit indwelling the saints will have been removed.
After the 144,000 from the 12 tribes are sealed, the 6th seal tribulation saints will be those who come to faith next, many people who never thought in a million years that they’d ever become a follower of Jesus Christ. I used to be one of those. All Glory to Jesus Christ the miracle worker, promise keeper, light in the darkness! Amen!But I’m getting ahead of things; I intentionally jumped over the 3rd seal …
I think the Holy Spirit will continue to indwell new saints on Earth after Jesus Christ rescues His bride, including the 144,000, the two-witnesses and all new believers, but His power will be expressed differently, without a unified nation or established church congregations to work through.

The Third Seal, black horse, food shortage rider
It’s nowhere written that when Jesus Christ breaks a seal, that the full force of it must happen instantly and simultaneously everywhere in the world, so it probably means that things have been loosed so they may begin to move in the direction of the prophesied outcome. See the quote below, it says ‘in various places.’ We need to be able to recognize when the third seal has been broken even if we ourselves can still afford food.
Matthew 24:7 NIV Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places.
⛔LIVE ALERT⛔IMMEDIATE MILITARY OPERATION⛔STRAIGHT PASSAGE ENFORCEMENT⛔BIGGEST CHANGE IN HISTORY⛔
When might Jesus Christ have broken the third seal?
It has not been written that the seals must be broken at a rate of ‘one per year’. The Sept. 23 ’25 Feast of Trumpets as observed by the Orthodox Jews was a very interesting day. For the first time since Israel became a nation again, 100 Trumpets were blown at the wailing wall! I watched it live. . .
And I was wondering why nothing extra special seemed to be happening until I found out what was happening at the UN! That was the very day Donald Trump snatched the unnamed UN Gaza Peace Plan right out of the hands of the whole world, and basically handed it Jared Kushner! They call it Trump’s peace plan for Gaza or The American Resolution. It’s based on the 20 point plan (which later became 21 points).
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. (Just to show how the KJV uses the word ‘trump’ instead of trumpet.)
It’s starting to make sense, because of what is happening in the straight of Hormuz. Although I think Trump has other motives, defending Israel from Iran, and the world from Iran’s nuclear threat is his stated purpose. The oil prices effect everything. But there’ve been food shortages already. It takes awhile to really see what’s happening, on a grand scale, as nations, people and institutions have had reserves.
The question is, did Jesus Christ break another seal on Sept. 23 ’25 AD?
Maybe. But before analyzing that, a warning: We need to be careful not to fall into a pattern of oversimplification. I say this because, sadly, it’s been happening so regularly that it’s becomes a major obstacle to truth. Why does this happens so much? It’s partly because true saints want people to be saved, so they try and try; But after having so many repeated experiences of people fleeing when the Bible gets even a tad more simple than a children’s fairy tale, these saints often simplify it for them, because in out hearts, we feel the urgency to keep them from the eternal lake of fire. Multitudes of witnesses never get past the ‘milk’ into the ‘meat.’ Witnesses, with brief contact time, may not have any other option. The problem is that, in America, when these new milk believers find a church, very many of the pastors continue on with only milk. They consistently avoid following up with the ‘hard truths.’ I’m not saying every believer needs to be a Bible expert, but they should’ve heard at least enough in their own church to realize that there’s a whole lot they don’t know. That’d keep them humble and may provoke an interest in going deeper. Instead, America has produced an overconfident generations of believers, who’ve embraced ‘easy believism’ which costs themselves nothing. Perhaps milk is better than nothing, God knows. But there’s such a huge multitude of them that they’ve become like an army of offense toward anybody speaks truth beyond their slim comfort zones. In that way they suppress truth and those who speak it. They don’t understand the temporary ‘real cost’ of following Christ, so they’re not prepared for what’s coming. When we warn these vacuous believers, most of them will become apostate when conditions get tough, and they will betray other Christians.
Back to the timing pattern, but without the popular oversimplifications:
The most interesting metaphor Jesus Christ gave us about the timing pattern at the end of this age is: In Matthew 24:8 He describes it as like birth pangs; The signs come closer together and stronger as the birth draws near.
Therefore, I think it’d be highly negligent not to ask ourselves if Jesus Christ may have broken the 3rd seal, six months instead of a year after the 2nd seal, and then the 4th seal instead of the 3rd seal on Sept. 23 ’25 AD.
It’s an important question because if the overall big picture stepping stones we’ve been following on this entire post are correct, but then Jesus Christ uses a continuous ‘one per year’ pattern to break the seals, then the pale horse rider of death to 1/4th of humanity won’t be broken until Sept. 11-13 ’26, meaning that 1/4 of humanity won’t be dead until about a year later but Yom Teruah Oct. 1-2 ’27 AD. Compare that to the birth pangs having doubled in frequency: If the pale horse rider followed by death of 1/4 of humanity was released on Sept. 23 ’25 AD (I don’t think “the hour of trial that will come upon the whole world” (Rev. 3:10), which is the beginning of the ‘great tribulation’, will take place the very instant Jesus Christ breaks the 4th seal; I think it means that things will begin snowballing in that direction.)That’d conclude by Sept. 11 2026 AD, make the timing perfect for God to fold the ’42 months of the free reign of the Beast’ into the final 7 years, ending just before His Millennial Kingdom begins! (That’s using the ‘final 7 years’ starting date that I learned about by following Daniel 9:27 in the Old Greek. See post 4. In my Last Week Dates Estimates Chart toward the bottom, where I estimated that the Beast’s free reign will begin on Oct. 1-2 ’27 AD.) That’d allow just enough time for the New World Order to snap into place and recruit followers for a whole year before the Beast gets empowered by satan in the abyss, comes out with the ability to kill the Two Witnesses.
Brother Nelson Walters has done impressive videos teaching that the 7 seals are broken one per year. But, I’ve found clear problems with that hypothesis, which I’ve explained in post 2. Tribulation Saints at mark 2.23-2.24, If you’ve been influenced by his argument, please also read my definitive rebukes. https://alephtav.blog/2024/09/01/2-tribsaints/
Yom Teruah, Isn’t the Only Regular Time YHWH Prescribed Trumpet Blowing in Torah.
What about the trumpet sounding pattern? Trumpets are also blown on the first day of every month, and the first day of the first month on God’s calendar is of very special importance; It’s the true Rosh Hashanah (God’s head of the year). It’s also the anniversary of the day God gave the calendar to Moses. Immediately after The Great America Eclipse ended, the 70th week of Daniel began on the true Rosh Hashanah, (Nisan 1 ’24 ADT.) It fell 6 months between Jesus’ breaking of the 1st and the 2nd seals. This tell me that Jesus is using ‘half times’, which are the seasons of holy convocations, two per year. See post 4. The Countdown mark 4.32-4.33: https://alephtav.blog/2024/08/31/4-last7yrs/

The Rider of the Black Horse seems to be an Angel or a Spirit of God Bringing Food Shortages, along with Famine to Various Places
Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. (Matt. 24:7 NIV)
Millions of lives at risk, warn UN food agencies, as hunger crisis worsens
The Fourth Seal, pale horse, death rider, Hades follows
Then the rider on the green, ashen (‘dappled‘ in the Septuagint)horse, will bring death to 1/4th of humanity by the sword(war), famine, plague and the wild beasts of the earth.
It’d be difficult to describe all that. So although it’s not directly about the great tribulation, the following video captures part of its spirit, with a dramatic, artistic, musical rendition of God’s destruction of Babylon the Great. On the lighter side, it’s followed by a short musical drama about the Lion of Judah rescuing the sheep fold, bringing her to the ark. (I guess I should mention that, maybe I’m blind, but I’m not convinced that ‘Babylon the Great’ is America or New York primarily. I enjoyed it anyway. I think America will be a huge target during the great tribulation, but for other reasons.)
Immediately after that Jesus Christ breaks the Fifth Seal. St. John was shown many martyrs under God Almighty’s throne in heaven. They were crying out for justice; Right after that, Jesus Christ broke the Sixth Seal. St. John was shown the 144,000, from the 12 tribes of Israel, receiving their protective seals and their assignment to remain on Earth, (on what is most likely a mission to witness to the lost Jews). And after that, he was shown the uncountable number of saints who had ‘come out of’ the great tribulation; They’d been were safely delivered to God Almighty’s throne room and were wearing pristine white linen and and waving palm branches in the air with great joy, while singing songs of praise.
14.12 Deed, Glory God Beyond
End of the Scrolls-Seals-Deed-Earth post, at least officially
If by this time, the Antichrist hasn’t yet been revealed, it’s certainly time!
Is the ‘The Prince Who is to Come’, prophesied in Daniel 9:27 the Antichrist/Beast?
Watchers have been keeping their eyes peeled for ‘the prince who is to come.’ I think he might be the Antichrist/Beast, but I’m not sure. I have strong reservations.
Many Bible teachers think, based on 2 Thess. 2:3, that we can’t know who the Antichrist/Beast is until he sits in the temple of God, declaring himself to be God. If so, then it’s unclear how the ‘prince who is to come’ could be the Antichrist/Beast.
14.13 Deed, Glory God Beyond
Now we implore you, brothers, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together unto Him, for you not quickly to be shaken in mind, nor to be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as if by us, as that the Day of the Lord is present. No one should deceive you in any way, because it is not until the apostasy shall have come first, and the man of lawlessness shall have been revealed—the son of destruction, the one opposing and exalting himself above every so-called god or object of worship—so as for him to sit down in the temple of God, setting forth that he himself is God. (2 Thess. 2: 1-4 BLB)
But, the ‘prince who is to come’ must be prophetically active years before that in order to get the temple of God built. So maybe the phrase in 2 Thess. 2:4 is merely describing the defining act that the Beast will perform, without the intention to imply that absolutely no one will know who he is until the exact moment he sits in the temple.
Many Jews will align with ‘the prince who is to come’ because he’ll facilitate the building of the 3rd temple and the return of the Old Covenant; Therefore, it seems like this prince is the one Jesus warned us about, the one who the Jews will accept as their Messiah despite the fact that he will come in his own name. But, if they’re the same man, then wide awake Christians will realize he’s the Antichrist before he sits in the temple!
Trump?
May believers think it’ll be Trump because of the Cyrus coin and how he loves to build things and to think of himself as king; and because he has lot of support in Israel and observes Hanukkah instead of Christmas in the White House. But, the white horseman of the apocalypse is shown under the first seal to have no arrow for his bow. When I wrote this paragraph, Trump had already bombed Iran, pointed nukes toward Russia, captured a Russian oil tanker as well as the Venezuelan president, and now he’s threatening Mexico and Columbia. So that seems to be a problem, unless we assume we’re past the ‘white horse phase.’
Feb. 7 ’26 Update: The USS Abraham Lincoln nuclear capable air craft carrier has moved near to Tehran. The talks in Oman and further talks have failed and news such as MSN headlines read: US Iran war: US nuclear warship to attack Iran any moment now? USS Abraham Lincoln moves near Tehran.
Predictive Programming
I don’t usually talk about predictive programming on this site; But, it was absolutely correct in predicting that the World Trade Center Towers would come down on 911;
There’s been a Feb. 8 ’26 programmed date, and it seems that on that day a portal that’s connected to a second 911, may have opened. Therefore, I’m providing the following explanatory link; It could be a trick or decoy, or it could be real again.
FOLLOW THE WHITE RABBIT – FINAL WARNING TO FEBRUARY 8, 2026 SUPER BOWL 60
More on the above predictive programming, of which I Pet Goat II is a central part:
The I Pet Goat II, predictive programming, written in 2012, seems to show the sinking of the USS Abraham Lincoln in what could be the Straight of Hormuz, and it was implying that Superbowl Feb. 8, ’26 had something to do with it. The main scene showed a portal in the heavens, which was open with something coming out of it; Most decoders missed that part. (Super Bowl half time shows have long become perhaps the largest venue for occult rituals in the USA. On Feb. 8 ’26, Lady Gaga, queen of the American occult, was there interacting with Bad Bunny dressed in white. The white rabbit is a huge occult symbol used in predictive programming and the Luciferian Masonic agenda, including false Christians like Candice Owens and Turning Point in general.) In the scene that I’ve been describing, there’s what appears to be a mushroom cloud explosion going on in the background, while a woman in mourning, dressed in all black was floating on a raft that looked like a shell in the sea while holding a dead boy with a ruined right eye. Her body language had Feb. 8 and 911 boldly coded into it. Her tears made a III on her forehead (WW3?) She held up a purple bottle of potion with a hidden ‘XX’ floating inside. That’s the simplest Free Masonic signature, so we know who’s agenda is expected to be play out. As her raft floats, the open top of her potion bottle comes into perfectly alignment with the pedestal the explosion in the background at timestamp 3:14. 3:14 is pi. Pi is central to the entire Masonic, cult which has most of the elite of the world in it’s grip. Pi, as used upside down by satan, represents the downward vortex – the rabbit hole of the abyss. see post 24.Mark of the Beast NO Chance of Salvation https://alephtav.blog/2024/08/10/24-markbeast/at mark 24.2-4.
Systematic destruction has been orchestrated in advance. Most presidents and other world leaders are puppets.The following is the motto of 33 degree Free Masons. They have the satanic delusion that if they destroy the world something good will come out of the ashes, so they’ve been carefully planning nearly total destruction of Earth, which is why they’ve all built under ground bunkers for themselves..
It might be associated with a nuclear event and Jesus Christ’s raising up of His bride. Together, all these things, will trigger the New World Order to snap into place, including the actions of the ‘prince who is to come’ who will then catalyze the third temple of God to be built and the Antichrist (possibly the same person).
Keep in mind that the true white horseman/false messiah may be in the background, quietly and persistently, carefully and discretely positioning his chess pieces, manipulating Trump, or someone else to be the most visible person involved with many things including the temple rebuilding. If so, what if the New Sanhedrin already knows who he is; someone who has ancestral Messianic qualifications, in their eyes. It’d be easy to keep most of the world in the dark with AI generating false news images like they were doing with the false starvation campaign in Gaza and the AI generated videos of Netanyahu when he went missing in the third week of March.
Note: According to the corrupted Masoretic text (Theodotian based) which most Bibles are based upon, the prince-who-is-to-come will clearly confirm a covenant. By comparison, in the Old Greek text, the prince is certainly aligned with The Mosaic Covenant. There may be a document to sign, but details of his initial role aren’t given, not even after reading 4 translations in the Old Greek. (Which is only available in very few Septuagints translated to English.)
I’m not sure if the true church of Christ will be able to figure out who ‘the prince who is to come’ is definitively. We’ll be gone soon. But, I wrote a major post about it. There’s one astonishing candidate:
The 70th-Week is a seven year period ending with a Jubilee-Sabbath year.The 70th-Week is set apart from the prior 69 weeks by a 2,000 yr. ‘gap’ or ‘time out.’The ‘gap’ was placed by God Almighty within the 69th and 70th weeks of the Daniel 9:24 prophesy.Most Christians call the gap ‘The Church Age.’ It began the year after the Holy Spirit anointed Jesus Christ the Jewish Messiah, the Son of God, our eternal Lord, and is usually thought to conclude when the first year of Daniel’s 70th-Week begins.I think that’s over simplified, and that the Church Age actually ends when Christ gathers His bride, probably about 21 lunar months into the final 7 years, immediately before the ‘great tribulation’ begins at the end of the 6th seal (not God’s wrath.)
14.16 Deed, Glory God Beyond
As mentioned above, my take on the Church Age is that it ends sometime in the beginning of the 70th week of Daniel, just before the massive death toll begins.
Jesus strongly implied He’d tarry. So this a highly motivational time for Christ’s mature bride; She has work to do for those who are at risk of being left behind. And, perhaps it’s also a test of perseverance to see who’s really truly His bride. There’s a whole lot of evidence that the final week has begun and that we’re deep into the tarry now. And most importantly, I can’t reiterate it enough, the Bible never, never says that the Church is removed before Daniel’s 70th week! See post:
The purpose of the final week-of-years before the Millennial Kingdom of Jesus Christ begins:
Assigned by God, it’s for the bringing about of the consummation of His awesome plan! Daniel 9:24 is the part that describes the gap and what the Jews must do; It’s their last chance.
24 “Seventy ‘sevens’ are decreed for your people and your holy city to finish transgression, to put an end to sin, to atone for wickedness, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the Most Holy Place. (Dan. 9:14 NIV)
Then, in Dan. 9:25-26, Daniel describes the events of the Messiah’s arrival and His being cut off. But only Daniel 9:27 describes the events that actually take place in the final week of years, the 70th week, beginning after the gap.
Only the translations that were ultimately based on the Theodotion redaction of the Book of Daniel, such as the Masoretic Text (which has no underlying source document) make it appear definitive that the final seven years begin the exact moment a particular agreement is signed.
14.17 Deed, Glory God Beyond
That’s why it’s important to know what the Old Greek says:
Old Greek Daniel 9:27
Many will support a ruler/prince who will bring back to life (Mosaic Covenant) rebuilt with length and width according to end time standards after 7 x 70 appointed times (Shmita cycles) also with 62 clansmen (temple guards). Until at the right moment for the consummation of joint sin debt payment, war will be against it, attempting to desertify it. The covenant will be greatly prevailed upon after many weeks. By the time the ‘weeks’ will be taken away, sacrifice, libation and the great sacred thing, it (the Mosaic Covenant) will have reached its perfect/fulfillment. Abomination causing desolation will exist until a joint sin debt payment for public burdens is given – great desertification.
That’s my translation. For the Old Greek itself and my earlier attempts click:
The final 7 years don’t have to begin exactly with the agreement . . .
To keep it short, no one should use the Masoretic Daniel 9:27 passage as the main foundation piece upon which to put together all the other pieces of the end times prophetic puzzle without even realizing it has no source manuscripts and is very different from the Old Greek, which does have source manuscripts!
It’s very possible that the seven year countdown has already begun. I’ve done extensive research, although I’m not dogmatic about it I find it difficult to talk about it with other believers the majority of believers are so certain that the final 7 years can’t start until Jesus takes His bride.
But the Bible simply never says that; It only says that He’ll keep the door (Himself) open for the Church of Philadelphia to keep her from the hour of trial that’s going to come upon the whole world. (Rev. 3:8)
Bible educated brethren, can only point to the throne room scene as their evidence, because the 24 elders were seen to be there by St. John, prior to when Jesus Christ took the scroll from the hand of God the Father to begin breaking the seals. I understand and sympathize with the desire for us to believe that the 24 elders represent the true church/bride of Christ in order to envision ourselves being safe in God’s throne room before the final 7 years begin. This desire must be especially strong for those who think the great tribulation of the 4th horseman is the same as the greatest tribulation, God ‘s wrath!
But the Bible never directly reveals who the 24 elders are! I studied this part deeply and it was painfully difficult to resolve. I went through every single possibility and each one, of course, looked correct when I consumed media produced by someone supporting that view. Now days they have such dramatic AI scenery and dramatic music on the so called educational videos combined with overly confident voices that can draws people in, like a seduction to a viewpoint, but without careful meticulous Biblical apologetics. Thinking this through with bible passages, I found fatal errors in every established viewpoint. . . . This went on and on for about a year maybe.
During that time I began a study on the deeper meaning of the lamp stand. It was so deep that I became cautious, realizing it was very important territory. I put it away for awhile, but it had already enlightened me enough to see, at the very least, that since Jesus was walking among the 7 lamp stands in Rev. 1, the seven church types, then Jesus Christ gives the report card for each of those seven church types; And then, just 8 verses later St. John sees the Lamb of God in Almighty’s throne room surrounded by 7 blazing torches (Rev. 5) then the Lamb of God appears there in the middle of God’s throne- I can no longer act like all that means nothing, that suddenly there’s no connection between the 7 lamp stands that are the 7 churches and the 7 lamp stands in God’s throne room! Why are they’re rarely even mentioned? They’re us. Can’t we recognize ourselves?For special study-seemark 10.16 in:
Assuming the 24 elders are the bride forces the entire time line to conform not only to Jesus having broken no seals yet when the world events are showing something very different, but also the timeline which is built on solid prophesies with precise end dates would have to be twisted and squashed to accommodate it – to the point where God’s Torah calendar wouldn’t even work!
I didn’t mean to rant.
I appreciate and genuinely love the watchers who’ve made monumental efforts with alternate calendars. And some of them end up delaying the 7th week of Daniel making it look like it might allow the bride to be raptured before it. Many believers have a rapture before the 7 years begin hope and think the dispensations make it certain. I also believe God has instituted dispensations, but there are some unexpected overlaps at the tail end; Most Christians have a simplified view. But, as for me, I love God’s calendar It’s the only calendar in the Bible. And everything seems to be working out perfectly on it.
It’s my opinion that Jesus Christ breaks the first four seals only to allow forces of worldliness/lawlessness and their natural consequences to progress; What I mean is that they’re not the same as when God expresses His personal wrath onto Earth. So, as mentioned above, I call the last 3.5 years of Daniel’s 70th week, the 42 months in which the Beast is satanically possessed and is given free reign by God Almighty, the greatEST tribulation. The first four seals are broken in order to set the stage for the Beast system and to bring an uncountable number of people to their knees so they may call on the name of Jesus Christ to receive salvation.
14.22 Deed, Glory God Beyond
After the 5th seal reveals the martyrs and the sixth seal reveals the 144,000 and the tribulation saints, then . . .
The Sixth Seal Concludes with the Introduction to God’s Wrath!
“Then the kings of the earth and the great ones and the generals and the rich and the powerful, and everyone, slave and free, hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains, calling to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who is seated on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb, for the great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand?”
Revelation 6:15-17
Billionaires are buying islands and building secret bunkers, but why?
It’s quite clear that that’s the announcement of the beginning of the first wave of God’s Wrath, which is synonymous with the Day of the Lord/Time of Jacob’s Trouble!
The sixth seal is the time when Jesus Christ gathers His greatest harvest of souls at the Wheat Harvest. They’re the main part of the body of Christ.
14.24 Deed, Glory God Beyond
So, in what order do things happens after Jesus Christ breaks the sixth seal?
At the sixth seal, the One-Seated-on-the-Throne and the Lamb are seen up in the heavens by all the terrified unrepentant sinners on Earth as they go through a monumental earthquake combined with terrifying events in the cosmos. Then there’s a pause as the 144,000 servants of God, from 12 tribes of Jacob, are each given the ‘seal of the living God’ on their foreheads by angels, in order that they may remain unharmed on Earth for awhile longer. Finally an uncountable number of saints that are said to have come out of the great tribulation, are seen by St. John, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, praising God in heaven!
WRATH – The 7th Seal Releases God’s 7 Trumpet Judgements
This post was for the 7 Seals, but they lead right into the 7 Trumpets so here’s a quick synopsis of those:
14.25 Deed, Glory God Beyond
Seemingly one right after another- the first four trumpets of the seven trumpets are directed against vegetation, water, marine animals, and the lights in the cosmos. But the fifth trumpet gets personal: The abyss is unlocked and opened. Demonic locusts with tails like scorpions come out and attack everyone earth, except the 144,000 sealed servants of God. After the sixth trumpet, 1/3 of humanity, whatever is left of it, is killed by a supernatural evil army led by three unnamed fallen angels that have been released from chains .
Throughout the first six trumpets, the main Body of Christ was already gone, and nobody else repented!
I’m leading into is why it seems extremely unlikely that the abomination of desolation setup event will occur at or before the Sixth Seal
Then, it Gets the Most Interesting!
There’s a large parenthetical section between Rev. 9 & 11, before the final trumpet:
This is the first mention of Jerusalem and the Temple since before the seals were broken, and it’s full of important characters including the two-witnesses, the Beast when he comes up from the abyss, satan, the religious Jews and the gentiles.
14.26 Deed, Glory God Beyond
St. John’s transported, in the spirit, to God’s throne room, where he’s told about the two-witnesses who’ll minister to the world. When they’re threatened, they will, with great Holy Spirit power, cause very harsh conditions to occur on Earth, similar to what Moses did with the plagues in Egypt. When they finish their witnessing, they’ll be murdered in the streets of Jerusalem by the Beast after it emerges from the abyss, and the world celebrates. The bodies of the Two Witnesses get resurrected and raptured to heaven 3.5 days after that, and immediately a great earthquake followings that collapses a tenth of Jerusalem. The people in Jerusalem who remain, become terrified and give Glory to the God of heaven!
This fits in with: Many Jews flee Jerusalem to the safe place God prepared for them. (The abomination of desolation setup begins right after the earthquake.) They only could’ve know about the safe place from Jesus’ Olivet Discourse.
The elimination of the Two Witnesses and their Holy Spirit powers, must be what makes the temple of God accessible to the Beast.
Prior to that time, the Two Witnesses, must have been holding back the attempts by the Antichrist/Beast to remove the regular sacrifices and libations at the temple so he could sit in the Holy of Holies proclaiming himself to be God, and begin to set up his abomination of desolation.
But, this part of the timing of Daniel’s 70th week is tricky. I examine it at the bottom of:
The Kingdom of the World has become the Kingdom of our Lord!
The Seventh Trumpet Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, “The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he shall reign forever and ever.” And the twenty-four elders who sit on their thrones before God fell on their faces and worshiped God, saying, “We give thanks to you, Lord God Almighty, who is and who was, for you have taken your great power and begun to reign. The nations raged, but your wrath came, and the time for the dead to be judged, and for rewarding your servants, the prophets and saints, and those who fear your name, both small and great, and for destroying the destroyers of the earth.”
Rev. 11: 15-18

Yay – Peals rumbles flashes a great earthquake and a great hailstorm! Hallelujah! Back on Earth, the False Prophet is now introduced. The Beast, is seen again, but this time, he’s seen to be raising up from the sea (representing that many peoples support him). And he’s enraged against the people of Jacob/Israel who’d just fled to the mountains where God has prepared a safe place for them, for 1,260 days.
It’s nice to have time to post Bible verses that I think will help people resist the false or misrepresented teaching and propaganda that misleads both believers and non believers. Some of these verses either use strong language or address sensitive topics.
Jeremiah 17:9
The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?
Matthew 7:24
Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. .And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock..And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. .And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it.
How can you believe while you continue to accept glory from one another and you do not seek the glory that comes from the only God? John 5:44
.He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. .And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. . He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it. Matt. 10: 37-39
Acts 10:34 KJV “Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:”
Acts 10:34 NKJV “Then Peter opened his mouth and said: “In truth I perceive that God shows no partiality.”
Hebrews 11: 37-39.”They were put to death by stoning; they were sawed in two; they were killed by the sword. They went about in sheepskins and goatskins, destitute, persecuted and mistreated— . the world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains, living in caves and in holes in the ground. .These were all commended for their faith, …”
“And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth and destroy by the splendor of his coming. The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan works. He will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders that serve the lie, and all the ways that wickedness deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness.“
Anyone who loves their life will lose it, while anyone who hates their life in this world will keep it for eternal life. John 12:25
Matt. 5:29
“So if your eye—even your good eye—causes you to lust, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.“
Professing to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of corruptible man and of birds and four-footed animals and crawling creatures. Therefore God gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, so that their bodies would be dishonored among them. Romans 1:22-25
This is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil. John 3:19
For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error. And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper. Romans 1:26-32
. . . in order that they all may be judged who did not believe the truth, but took pleasure in wickedness. 2 Thessalonians 2:12
Isaiah 5:20-26
“Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and clever in their own sight.”
18 Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a person commits are outside the body, but whoever sins sexually, sins against their own body. 19 Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; 20 you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.
1 Corinthians 6
Matthew 25: 34-36
“Then the king will say to those at his right hand, ‘Come, you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me.’”
Revelation 18
“Give her (Babylon the Great) as much torment and grief as the glory and luxury she gave herself. In her heart she boasts, ‘I sit enthroned as queen. I am not a widow; I will never mourn.’ Therefore in one day her plagues will overtake her: death, mourning and famine. She will be consumed by fire, for mighty is the Lord God who judges her.”

Revelation 22:14-15
“Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city. Outside are the dogs, those who practice magic arts, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.”
But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death. Rev. 21:8
Who is the liar? It is whoever denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a person is the antichrist—denying the Father and the Son. 1 John 2:22
By your great skill in trading you have increased your wealth, but your heart has grown proud because of it. Ezekiel 28:5
Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.” Matt. 19:24

And he answered them, ‘Whoever has two tunics is to share with him who has none, and whoever has food is to do likewise.’– Luke 3:11
Matthew 11:4-6
Jesus replied, “Go back and report to John what you hear and see: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is proclaimed to the poor. Blessed is anyone who does not stumble on account of me.”
Luke 14:2-14 He said also to the one who had invited him, ‘When you give a luncheon or a dinner, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or rich neighbors, in case they may invite you in return, and you would be repaid. But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind. And you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you, for you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.’
James 5:1-6
Now listen, you rich people, weep and wail because of the misery that is coming on you.Your wealth has rotted, and moths have eaten your clothes. Your gold and silver are corroded. Their corrosion will testify against you and eat your flesh like fire. You have hoarded wealth in the last days. Look! The wages you failed to pay the workers who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord Almighty. You have lived on earth in luxury and self-indulgence. You have fattened yourselves in the day of slaughter. You have condemned and murdered the innocent one, who was not opposing you.
Luke 12:16-21 Then he told them a parable: ‘The land of a rich man produced abundantly. And he thought to himself, ‘What should I do, for I have no place to store my crops?’ Then he said, ‘I will do this: I will pull down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. And I will say to my soul, ‘Soul, you have ample goods laid up for many years; relax, eat, drink, be merry.’ But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life is being demanded of you. And the things you have prepared, whose will they be?’ So it is with those who store up treasures for themselves but are not rich toward God.’
Luke 11:39-42 Then the Lord said to him, ‘Now you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and of the dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness. You fools! Did not the one who made the outside make the inside also? So give for alms those things that are within; and see, everything will be clean for you. But woe to you Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and herbs of all kinds, and neglect justice and the love of God.’
Luke 4:16-19 When he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, he went to the synagogue on the sabbath day, as was his custom. He stood up to read, and the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written: ‘The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favour.’

The Rich Man and Lazarus,
“There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day. At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores and longing to eat what fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores. “The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried. In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side. So he called to him, ‘Father Abraham, have pity on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this fire.’ “But Abraham replied, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is comforted here and you are in agony. And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been set in place, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us.’”
“He answered, ‘Then I beg you, father, send Lazarus to my family, for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment.’ “Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the Prophets; let them listen to them.’ “‘No, father Abraham,’ he said, ‘but if someone from the dead goes to them, they will repent.’ “He said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.’” Luke 16:19-31

“To the angel of the church in Laodicea write:
These are the words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the ruler of God’s creation. I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth. You say, ‘I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.’ But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked. I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich; and white clothes to wear, so you can cover your shameful nakedness; and salve to put on your eyes, so you can see. Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest and repent.Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me. To the one who is victorious, I will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I was victorious and sat down with my Father on his throne. Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” Revelation 3:14-22
The Sermon on the Plain, second Beatitudes, Luke 6:20-26
Looking at his disciples, he said:
“Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be satisfied. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh. Blessed are you when people hate you, when they exclude you and insult you and reject your name as evil, because of the Son of Man.”
“Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, because great is your reward in heaven. For that is how their ancestors treated the prophets.
“But woe to you who are rich, for you have already received your comfort.
Woe to you who are well fed now, for you will go hungry. Woe to you who laugh now, for you will mourn and weep. Woe to you when everyone speaks well of you, for that is how their ancestors treated the false prophets.”
A scholarly interpretation of the above Luke 6:21, Blessed are ye that hunger now: In the second beatitude, unlike the first, we note the absence of the words that seem to give the blessing on those that “hunger and thirst after righteousness” its specially spiritual character. The law implied is obviously the same as before. Fullness of bread, a life abounding in comforts and luxuries, like that of the Rich Man in the parable of Luke 16:19, tends to dull the edge of appetite for higher things. Those who know what the hunger of the body is, can understand better, and are more likely to feel, the hunger of the soul.
A scholarly interpretation of the above Luke 6:25, Woe to you who are well fed now: This phrase addresses those who find their satisfaction and security in material abundance. In the biblical context, being “well fed” often symbolizes self-reliance and complacency, neglecting spiritual needs. The warning echoes the Old Testament prophets, such as Amos 6:1-7, who condemned the wealthy for their indifference to the plight of the poor. Jesus’ message here is a call to recognize the temporary nature of earthly comforts and the importance of spiritual hunger and dependence on God.
38 the world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains, living in caves and in holes in the ground. Hebrews 11:38
The superlative Wake Up Sleeper passage of the Bible:
Ephesians 5:
You are God’s children whom he loves, so try to be like him. Live a life of love just as Christ loved us and gave himself for us as a sweet-smelling offering and sacrifice to God. But there must be no sexual sin among you, or any kind of evil or greed. Those things are not right for God’s holy people. Also, there must be no evil talk among you, and you must not speak foolishly or tell evil jokes. These things are not right for you. Instead, you should be giving thanks to God. You can be sure of this: No one will have a place in the kingdom of Christ and of God who sins sexually, or does evil things, or is greedy. Anyone who is greedy is serving a false god. Do not let anyone fool you by telling you things that are not true, because these things will bring God’s anger on those who do not obey him. So have nothing to do with them. In the past you were full of darkness, but now you are full of light in the Lord. So live like children who belong to the light. Light brings every kind of goodness, right living, and truth. Try to learn what pleases the Lord. Have nothing to do with the things done in darkness, which are not worth anything. But show that they are wrong.It is shameful even to talk about what those people do in secret.But the light makes all things easy to see, and everything that is made easy to see can become light. This is why it is said: “Wake up, sleeper! Rise from death, and Christ will shine on you.” So be very careful how you live. Do not live like those who are not wise, but live wisely. Use every chance you have for doing good, because these are evil times. So do not be foolish but learn what the Lord wants you to do. Do not be drunk with wine, which will ruin you, but be filled with the Spirit. Speak to each other with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing and making music in your hearts to the Lord. Always give thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

1. THE BARLEY: 24 Elders, the Bride of Christ and the Fifth Seal Martyrs

3. THE FRUIT: Resurrected O.T. Saints, Remnant Jews and the Last Martyrs
1. TheBarley Harvest
The First Fruits of the Barley Harvest
The 24 Elders
My studies have revealed that the 24 elders are either those who came up out of their graves on the Mount of Olives and walked into Jerusalem right after Jesus Christ was resurrected; Matt. 27:52-53, “And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, and came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.” Or, they were among those who were in Hades/Sheol/Hell the good part, which was ‘the bosom of Abraham’. They both rose at the First Fruits of the barley harvest; They could be the same saints who rose in two parts.
Some of those may’ve been from among those mentioned in Hebrews 11, the Hall of Faith. 8 out of 22 of the Old Testament saints mentioned in Hebrews 11 were not Israelites; For example, Abel, Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Sarah and Rahab. Verse 32 states that the writer didn’t have time to write about all of them, so we can speculate: Surely Deborah the prophetess, military leader and 4th and only female Judge of pre-monarchic Israel belongs in the Hall of Faith! Job certainly belongs and he wasn’t an Israelite. The Barley Harvest is for all nations, just like the Wheat Harvest and doesn’t exclude Hebrew Israelites. The Fruit or ‘Good Grape’ Harvest seems to be the only harvest of saints that’s mostly (but not completely) exclusive to the Jews.
When did the 24 elders arrive in God’s throne room? I agree with most Bereans that it was sometime after Jesus Christ’s Resurrection, probably at the time of His Ascension.
“I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name. . . Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come on the whole world to test the inhabitants of the earth.”
Revelation 3: 8,10
Although it’s from the Olivet Discourse, this passage backs up the concept. Luke is considered, by many, to be the gospel to the bride; This passage isn’t in Matt. or Mark.
But watch yourselves, or your hearts will be weighed down by dissipation, drunkenness, and the worries of life — and that day will spring upon you suddenly like a snare. For it will come upon all who dwell on the face of all the earth. 36So keep watch at all times, and pray that you may have the strength to escape all that is about to happen and to stand before the Son of Man. (Luke 21 34-35)
Many Bereans think, for quite a few good reasons, that since the body of Jesus Christ has different parts for different purposes, that His bride is one special part of His body for a special purpose. I believe it. If it’s true, I think she must be mainly the Church of Philadelphia, because out of the 7 church types, only to her did Jesus Christ the, Bridegroom, give the special promise that He’d keep her from the hour of trial that’s going to come upon the whole world to test its inhabitants. Perhaps they’re the ones who loved Him the most, having proved it by keeping themselves apart from worldliness, hating the state of this fallen world, while still loving the people in it. This is the group who will have been waiting longingly for Him every day and when He arrives and will LOVE His appearing!
The saints in the Church of Philadelphia are watching, not living for the world. They’re eagerly awaiting and praying every day for our Lord and Savior to come. There are seven types of churches described in Revelation 2-3, and it seems like some saints from each of them will also make it through His open door, but as just mentioned, the Church of Philadelphia is the model of the ‘Bride of Christ’; I think the wise bridesmaids will be brought through Jesus’ door also, and that they’ll be from the other 6 church types.
18.1 Glory God Beyond
St. John is the Individual Model for the Bride of Christ.
St. John, who is called ‘the one Jesus loved,’ was the only apostle who stayed at the cross during Jesus’ crucifixion; 65 years later, immediately after St. John experienced His first amazing Revelation vision, that of Jesus Christ walking among the seven golden lamp stands, which represent the 7 church types, St. John looked and saw an open door. “He heard God say ‘Come up here’ and he went up and saw seven blazing torches before the throne of God; then he saw the Lamb who appeared to have been slaughtered in the center of the throne.” (Rev. 4:1)
The fact that St. John saw all seven lamp stands before the throne of God, and that they were all blazing, seems to indicate that at least some saints from every one of the seven church types, even the five faltering ones, will be gathered by Jesus Christ unto Himself at His Open Door Harvest.
Jesus Christ is the DOOR.
18.2 Glory God Beyond
What I’m calling the Open Door Harvest is the harvest that more and more modern Bereans are calling the Barley Harvest, the owner’s portion. The individuals who make it through Jesus Christ’s Open Door are the ones who’ll be spared the ‘hour of trial’ that’s coming upon the whole world.
In St. John’s Rev. 2-3 vision, Jesus gave a warning to two of the 7 church types. He said He would remove their lamp stands if they didn’t repent. I think it highlights Jesus’ grace that, none of the lamp stands were ultimately removed! If my interpretation is right, the great news of Rev. 4:1 is: All 7 church types will be eternally represented as Christ’s bride or bridesmaids. That’s despite the fact that it was only the Church of Philadelphia who, as a whole, received His special promise. That’s was the promise that He would keep His Door open for them. Jesus Christ our betrothed, He Himself is the Door!
The very next thing St. John sees in God’s throne room is the Lamb of God breaking the seals of the scroll of the Deed to Earth.
So when do the saints of the Open Door Harvest arrive in heaven? If the blazing torches in the throne room of God Almighty truly are symbolic of the seven fold church being full of the holy spirit and shining their light into the world, does that mean that automatically mean that the individual members of the bride of Christ will have already arrived in the third heaven before Jesus Christ takes the scroll from His Father’s hand?
18.3 Glory God Beyond
Or, is His bride still on Earth when the Worthy One begins breaking the seal?
Did St. John witness only the church’s ‘symbolic’ representation in God’s throne room, with the flames on the lamp stands being indicators of the condition of God’s church on Earth, at the time immediately before Jesus breaks the first seal?
It makes sense that the Lamb of God would begin breaking seals right after all 7 begin blazing in unison, indicating that His 7 fold bride’s ready and therefore it’s time for Him to receive the scroll and begin breaking its seals!
It’s important for me to understand this because I see so much evidence that our Lord and Savior has already begun breaking them.
The ‘watching’ part of the church is ready now, hopefully with representatives from each of the 7 church types. (But, I’m hoping that more saints will wake up just before His Open Door Harvest. I don’t see any reason why that that can’t be the case, if His bride is still on Earth, even if Jesus has begun breaking seals.)
When will the Open Door Harvest take place? At first it seemed, to me, that it’d be on one of God our Father’s Torah Law appointed-times/holy convocations, since Jesus Christ was sent to fulfill the law.
Matt. 5:17-18, “Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law ’till all is fulfilled.”
18.4 Glory God Beyond
In the year of His crucifixion, Jesus Christ fulfilled at least 3, but maybe 4 of the 7 yearly Torah holy convocations/appointed-times, in perfect order. Some think the fourth one, Shavuot/Pentecost, hasn’t been completely fulfilled since Jesus Christ was in heaven, not on or near Earth when He sent the Holy Spirit down, 10 days after His Ascension. Also, Shavuot is a pilgrimage holy convocation, it requires a return trip, and we know that the Holy Spirit must return back to heaven with the saints.
For a brief overview of God’s 7 holy-convocations/appointed times see: 5. Trumpets Herald World Events:
But there’s not Presently a Temple of God standing in Jerusalem!
Since the masonry temple, with its priesthood, sacrifices and proper time keeping, was central to the keeping of God’s appointed-times, especially the highest-holy-days, the fact that it currently doesn’t exist as it did when Jesus Christ walked the earth, makes it seem like God’s final appointed times can’t be fulfilled yet. Nevertheless, I still watch each of the 7 holy convocation time slots on the calendar carefully. Thankfully, as I’ve matured in my understanding, I’ve discovered that there are quite a few other prophetic high watch periods that we should be aware of, ones that don’t center upon the temple of God. (See post 1.)
I’ve felt His nearness
and
don’t want to overlook any possibility!
18.5 Glory God Beyond
So When?
Jesus said We Should Watch!
We can already perceive the accelerating convergence of Old Testament prophesies in addition to many of the cosmic and cultural signs Jesus described in His Olivet Discourse. Even though some of those events will occur after the church is gone, the storm clouds are forming now. I mean it’s time for Jesus Christ to collect His bride and He could do it at any moment. To understand what’s happening in the world right now requires a pretty good foundation in Old Testament prophesy, after all, He was talking mainly to ‘Jews’ with His Olivet Discourse, but we also need to be able to properly integrate that knowledge into New Testament prophesy.
Revelation Type Events Are Approaching Us Daily
Artificial intelligence is doubling its power every three months, trans-humanism is about to irreversibly take hold; These are parts of Mystery Babylon, and so is their tampering with the DNA of everything. The things they’re doing literally underground are unspeakable. See links by Sling and Stone, in post:
Before they become an overwhelming threat to the mind, body, soul and spirit of His bride/true-church, I believe Jesus Christ our faithful Bridegroom King, will gather His Barley Harvest Bride through His Open Door Self.
18.6 Glory God Beyond
That must be why He said “I know you have little strength” and promised to keep the Church of Philadelphia from the hour of trial. Again, Rev. 4:1 seems to demonstrate that individual unsoiled saints from the other church types will also be redeemed at the same time. Hallelujah!
I’ve not found any verses in the Bible stating that our glorious Lord, Savior, Bridegroom Christ will come for His Church exactly when the 70th week of Daniel begins, exactly when the final Daniel 9:27 agreement is signed (if it is a signed document) or exactly 7 years before the first day of the Millennium. (See post 3.) Although it’s been frequently taught, the Bible simply never says that!
Most Christians conflate the harvests, which is necessary, at times, because they have many similar elements. Complete information about them hasn’t been clearly given to us, because certain things are revealed to us only as needed; This is true, especially in these last days, because satan is most jealous of the bride of Christ and although he want’s us out of here, he will also try to ruin Jesus’ plan.
I’ve mentioned that the bride/true church of Christ must be the Barley Harvest: Barley bows its head while wheat is stiff necked. Barley pearls come right out, while wheat ears must beaten with a tribulum.
Jesus Christ was resurrected on the third holy convocation, which is called ‘First-Fruits’ and it marks the beginning of the barley harvest when a sheaf must be presented to God.
In the three days that His body lay dead, Jesus Christ rescued captives out of Sheol, from Abraham’s bosom. Where did He take them? Either He took them to His Father, in His throne room, as a First-Fruits offering of the Barley Harvest of saints; Or He brought them to paradise, which is the place in heaven where saints who died wait for their glorified bodies that they’ll receive when the rest of the church is harvested.
Just speculation: If Jesus brought the sheaf out from Abraham’s Bosom in Sheol, perhaps they made a pit stop on Earth to animate their old dead bodies which may’ve been those that came up out of their graves on the Mount of Olives when Jesus died.
18.7 Glory God Beyond
Shavuot/Pentecost, God’s fourth holy convocation is the day in which the first fruits of the wheat harvests are presented to God. It also marks the fulfillment of the barley harvest, including the gleanings of the barley harvest of saints who must be martyred at the 5th seal, before the first fruits of the wheat harvest of saints, the 144,000, are sealed, which will happen at the beginning of the sixth seal. see below …
The 7 Year Countdown Begins Before the Church Age Ends:
I think the ‘great tribulation’ (not to be confused with God’s wrath) begins soon after Jesus Christ breaks the FOURTH SEAL. The ‘hour of trial’ is not specifically about Daniels 7 year period on Earth, although time is utterly elastic when traveling in the cosmos, so it’s still possible that the bride will spend exactly 7 years in God’s heaven, if God’s desires it. The first seal events don’t cause great worldwide tribulation, since they’re the diplomatic exploits of the future antichrist before the restrainer’s fully removed. The second seal removes peace, but it’s a process that doesn’t happen all at once, not going nuclear until the fourth seal. The third seal is similar: Food prices begin rising, but the full impact isn’t reached until the progression (march of the black horse) reaches the fourth seal, as supported by Matt. 24:7, which informs us that the famines will occur ‘in various places.’ I think the ‘beginning of sorrows’ become the ‘great tribulation’ at the 4th seal; When the Lamb of God breaks the fourth seal, a 1/4 of humanity will die due to the cumulative effects of all that was allowed to be put into motion when He broke the first three seals. As opposed to the trumpet and the bowls, which are direct judgments from God, breaking the seals are God way to allow the beast to progress.
the tarry
Jesus Christ our Bridegroom strongly implied He’d tarry! But, why would He delay gathering His bride? What if the bride of Christ is busy serving our Lord by warning and/or making preparations for those who’re not getting ready, and are about to enter the great tribulation? I sometimes feel as if that’s what I’m doing.
The limit of the timing of the Open Door Harvest is that it must happen before the death of the 5th Seal Martyrs. According to Levitical Law the owner’s portion of any harvest, must be gathered in completely, before any of the gleanings are touched by the poor or the stranger (which in the case of the end time tribulation will be the ‘Beast System) until the owner (God) has taken the entirety of His portion. That’s according to God’s Levitical Law. But that doesn’t mean satan won’t break God’s law; Nevertheless, we can be fully assured that Jesus Christ will arrive with His Door Open before the 5th seal martyrs arrive under Father God’s alter! Hallelujah! Perhaps we’ll watch King Jesus break the fifth seal after we arrive in God’s throne room!
18.8 Glory God Beyond
The Gleanings of the Barley Harvest
Fifth Seal Martyrs
Gleanings are the part of a harvest that are given over to the stranger and the poor; And they become the new owners. In the case of the harvests of souls at the end of the age, the gleanings are given over to the world. Even though the whole field of the souls of the Barley Harvest had become holy when the sheaf of the First Fruits offering, of saints (the 24 elders)was accepted by God Almighty, God won’t take back for Himself any part that was given over to a different owner, unless they’re put to death by the enemy. This is true in the case of souls in the time of the end, because the new owner, will be the world of the Beast.
Rev. 6: 9-11 “When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the testimony which they held. And they cried with a loud voice, saying, ‘How long, O Lord, holy and true, until You judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?’ Then a white robe was given to each of them; and it was said to them that they should rest a little while longer, until both the number of their fellow servants and their brethren, who would be killed as they were was completed.”

2. The Wheat Harvest
The First Fruits of the Wheat Harvest
The 144,000
18.10 Glory God Beyond
12,000 from each of the 12 tribes of Israel, Dan being replaced by Levi are the first fruits of the Wheat Harvest. What suddenly triggered so many Sons of Jacob to begin following Jesus Christ? It’s likely that after living through the many events that occurred after Jesus Christ broke the first three seals and part of the fourth seal, and seeing so many Christians go missing from Earth because of Jesus Christ’s Open Door Harvest, they figured out who their Messiah really is.
The Owner’s Portion of the Wheat Harvest
The Tribulation Saints
It’s a metaphor. Wheat is the largest harvest of the year in Israel. Wheat requires a beating by a ‘tribulum’ to become useful. Such is not the case with barley, which is why the true church or the ‘bride of Christ’ is referred to as the ‘Barley Harvest.’ The tribulation saints will makeup the greatest harvest of saints ever to be seen in heaven. Their unaccountable multitude was witnessed by St. John after Jesus Christ broke the sixth seal! They’re gathered to heaven by our Lord and Savior, at the conclusion of the ‘great tribulation’ but before God’s wrath. (I call God’s Wrath the ‘greatest tribulation’ to avoid confusion.)
And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
Revelation 7:14
In the Book of Revelation, the first mention of the ‘wrath of God’ (which is the greatest tribulation) is at the sixth seal as the ‘great tribulation’ is concluding:
Then the kings of the earth, the princes, the generals, the rich, the mighty, and everyone else, both slave and free, hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains. They called to the mountains and the rocks, ‘Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! For the great day of their wrath has come, and who can withstand it?’
Revelation 6:15-17
The Gleanings of the Wheat Harvest
The Two Witnesses
18.12 Glory God Beyond
The Two Witnesses will come on the scene 1,260 days before the Beast comes up empowered, out of the abyss. That means they must arrive very early in Daniel’s 70th week. A very careful analysis of the passage reveals that St. John only reports on the whereabouts of the Two Witnesses when they’re killed and lay in a street of Jerusalem for three days before they’re resurrected from that same spot. The Two Witnesses were never described as being inside the temple courts or on the temple mount. Regarding the initial part of their ministry, I think it’s only due to the fact that the angel told St. John about them, right after getting him (St. John) to measure the future temple of God, that most people assume that the two witnesses will begin and carry out most of their their ministry at the temple of God! And, because of that assumption, the narrative that believers have imagined, is that the Two Witnesses are sent to witness and prophesy only to the Jews; But the Two Witnesses are described by the angel as ‘the 2 olive trees and the 2 lamp stands.’ I think that means they must also speak to Christians; Christian churches hold up 7 lamps; They are a menorah. God has two betrothals in the Bible, one inthe Old Testament and one in the New Testament. Two menorahs represent two brides/wives. There’s the betrothed of YHWH and the betrothed His son Jesus Christ. Zechariah is the expert on the lamp stand olive tree vision.What did Zechariah write? He was given a vision of the two olive trees and one menorah, (because there was no church yet then). The angel explained it to Zechariah: The two olive trees represented two humans who fed oil (Holy Spirit) into the covenant people of God(menorah). They were named; They represented the high priest (Joshua) and the kingship (Zerubabbel). Jesus Christ is our high priest and King of kings.
I think Joshua and Zerubabbel are the Two Witnesses. There’s no record of their deaths. I think they’ll be born on Earth in the same way that John the Baptist was, that they’ll grow up here and receive the Holy Spirit; Then at some point, like when Jesus of Nazareth was Baptized they’ll be completely and continuously filled with the Holy Spirit, through which they’ll be granted virtually unlimited defensive powers by God. But, just as the Jews recognized neither Elijah nor their Messiah, I suspect that most ‘Christians’ won’t recognize the Two Witnesses until they become significantly threatened and begin to use their powers in an obvious way.
The overall timing of the last 7 years, shows that they must begin their ministry before the 3rd temple is built and the Beast will kill them 1,260 days later, after they finish their ministry. The Beast’s 42 month free reign begins on the day of their death or three days later after their resurrection. In their 1,260 day ministry, the most effective way for the two witnesses to reach the widest audience is via the internet. They must reach both Jews and Christians, at a time when Jesus Christ’s church is apostacizing and desperately needs correction, almost as much as the Jews do. I think the two witnesses have already been working on earth. I’ve stated a list of who they could be. Jeff Morgan may be one of them. For more see posts 12. Last Hour Links 15. Awesome Testimonies and :
I am the true vine, and my Father is the vine dresser. Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit. Already you are clean because of the word that I have spoken to you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.
We’ve all heard of the Grapes of Wrath, but I think there’s also a Good Grape Harvest since Jesus himself is thegood grape vine.
Grape Harvest Passages
Grape Harvest Passages
Then I looked, and there before me was a white cloud. Sitting on the cloud was someone like a Son of Man seated on the cloud was one like a son of man (Jesus) with a crown of gold on his head and a sharp sickle in his hand. Then another angel came out of the temple and called in a loud voice to him who was sitting on the cloud, “Take your sickle and reap,because the time to reap has come, for the harvest of the earth is ripe.” So he who was seated on the cloud swung his sickle over the earth, and the earth was harvested. (Rev. 14: 14-16)
18.15 Glory God Beyond
I think Jesus Christ harvested the living branches, those who were attached to Himself. SinceJesus is the grape vine, His true follower are the ‘good grapes’ on the branches that are attached to Him. Although this harvest, which is the first Rev. 14 harvest, isn’t specifically said to be grapes, the barley and wheat harvests had already been completed before Rev. 11. Olives and figs were the only other important late season crops in Jerusalem.
The other Rev. 14 Harvest is the Grapes of Wrath
Another angel came out of the temple in heaven, and he too had a sharp sickle. Still another angel, who had charge of the fire, came from the altar and called in a loud voice to him who had the sharp sickle, “Take your sharp sickle and gather the clusters of grapes from the earth’s vine, because its grapes are ripe.” The angel swung his sickle on the earth, gathered its grapes and threw them into the great wine press of God’s wrath. They were trampled in the wine press outside the city, and blood flowed out of the press, rising as high as the horses’ bridles for a distance of 1,600 stadia. (Rev. 14 17-20)
Those are the wild grapes that remained, after Jesus took His good grape harvest.
It started with the First Fruits of the ‘Good Grape’ Harvest
Resurrected Old Testament Saints
Soon after the war with Michael and satan breaks out in heaven, there’s a very large resurrection of the Old Testament saints who are the first fruits of the Good Grape Harvest.
18.16 Glory God Beyond
Daniel 12: 1-2 “At that time Michael, the great prince who protects your people, will arise. There will be a time of distress such as has not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time your people—everyone whose name is found written in the book—will be delivered. Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake, some to everlasting life others to shame and everlasting contempt . . .”
With 3 mentions of ‘time’ in just those two verses, perhaps we should ask: ‘when’? The answer is found in the context of the end of Daniel 11, (the final King of the North invading Israel) and also in Revelation 12 7-9 see below:
Revelation 12: 7-9 “Then war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back.But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.”
18.17 Glory God Beyond
The Owner’s Portion of the Good Grape Harvest
The Main Harvest of the Jews
TheMain Good Grape Harvest (owner’s portion) is the Rev. 14: 14-16 harvest by Jesus Christ, when He sits on the clouds with His sickle: It takes place after Rev. 12 when the abomination of desolation (A.O.D.) is initially set up and the Jews flee to the mountains to a place God will have prepared for them. We know they’ll stay there for 1,260 days. The sickle Jesus is holding is symbolic; Jesus’ Olivet Discourse tells us that when He harvests them, He’ll be seen across the entire sky by everyone on Earth, from the East to the West, in great glory; And that He’ll be with a host of His angels who’ll gather them. But, this isn’t Jesus Christ’s second coming, when He’ll be accompanied by all His saints – a huge standard – all of us on white horses together with myriads and myriads of good angels. This is only the Olivet Discourse Harvest. No horses are mentioned. The wedding feast hasn’t happened yet in heaven and Armageddon will begin very soon.
18.18 Glory God Beyond
This group isn’t part of Christ’s church, since they’ve already suffered through the seven trumpets of God’s judgment/wrath onto the earth. The church, is not appointed to God’s wrath. But, I think this group will still be invited to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb since they’ll arrive in heaven before the wedding feast.
And the angel said to me, “Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.” And he said to me, “These are the true words of God.” (Rev. 19:9)

Gleanings of the Good Grape Harvest of Revelation 19
The Last Martyrs
The last martyrs are described by St. John who saw them toward the end of his journey in the spirit. He saw them standing in heaven beside what appeared to be a sea of glass and fire, and heard them named “those who defeated the beast and his image.” These are the gleanings of the Good Grape Harvest. Although they will be mostly Jews, I think there will also be some gentles among them because . . .
18.19 Glory God Beyond
.The woman fled into the wilderness to a place prepared for her by God, where she might be taken care of for 1,260 days. … .Then the dragon was enraged at the woman and went off to wage war against the rest of her offspring – those who keep God’s commands and hold fast their testimony about Jesus. (Rev. 12:6,17)
“And it was given unto him (the Beast) to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.”
Revelation 13:7
The Revelation 12 woman is Israel, but satan couldn’t get to her, so instead he went after whoever else left on Earth was following her son Jesus Christ. All those who follow Jesus Christ are considered to be her offspring, because they abide in Jesus.
.
None of the last martyrs, whether Jew or gentile, are part of Christ’s church, because they come out of God’s wrath. The church is completely gone by then, nevertheless there seems to be a group of gentile stragglers who missed the entire church age, yet are somehow humbled after seeing the Two Witnesses resurrected. Perhaps they find Bibles in their hideouts as they’re trying to dodge the beast; They are saints too. And they seem to arrive in heaven just in time, for the Marriage Supper of the Lamb! See:
Then the angel said to me, “Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb!” (Rev. 19:9)
And he added, “These are the true words of God.” (Rev. 19:9)For God did not appoint us (the church) to suffer wrath, but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. (1 Thess. 5:9)
18.20 Glory God Beyond
The Last Martyrs will come out of the Wrath of God
None of these will have repented until after the sixth trumpet judgement (the second woe). Not even being tortured for five months by demonic locusts from the bottomless pit, at the fifth trumpet judgment, without being able to die although wishing to, impressed them enough to call out to Jesus Christ for help. Only later, after hearing the powerful testimonies of the Two Witnesses and seeing the beast come out of the bottomless pit and kill them, and then seeing them resurrected 3.5 days later, followed by a great earthquake that destroys a tenth of the Jerusalem, did they finally get humble and turn to Jesus Christ.
In Rev. 20, St. John sees the souls of the last martyrs, and sees them come to life and reign with Christ for a thousand years!
Handy chart: Three Harvests, each with three parts:
First Fruits of the Barley Harvest could also be the captives Jesus removed from Hades, the ‘Bosom of Abraham’, when He “took captivity captive”.
My interpretation of the two harvests of Rev. 14, is that only the second harvest is the grapes of wrath and the first one is the smaller harvest of good grapes.
18.21 Glory God Beyond
.
Final thoughts about gleanings:
According to Romans 11:18, When the first-fruits of something offered to God is holy, the whole lump is holy; This applies to fields of grain and other crops. The gleanings of a holy field (lump) are given over to the poor and the stranger who become its new owner.
18.22 Glory God Beyond
Leviticus chapters 25-27 relates to harvests, valuation, vows, redemption and many animal offerings, which are also holy to God.
God has given rules about their redemption, including cases when the animal must be killed. see post 2
(((These are not the regular alter sacrifices.)))
As far as I understand it, no living thing that’s holy to God, and is then given over to another owner can be redeemed back to God except by death. The corners of a field are holy to God, if that field has been dedicated to God. But, God has commanded in Torah for them to be given over to the poor and the stranger passing through. The corners are the gleanings. Therefore, regarding God’s harvest of souls, those saints who find themselves as part of the gleanings in the end times, having actually been given over to the world Beast/Antichrist system, must be martyred by the enemies team. That’s the only way God will take them back.
18.23 Glory God Beyond
That’s an example of gleanings of a holy batch. I believe that verse is also about the portion of the Good Grape Harvest that must be put to death in order to to be redeemed back to God and that similar things happened with the Barley and Wheat Harvests.
Through extraordinary pressure, like a crucible, a 1/3 remnant of the Jews will be saved.
3 groups will survive the Day of the Lord/Time of Jacob’s Trouble.
There’s also a group raised from the dead. (Dan. 12:2)
First an introduction: Then I’ll go over these three groups again below, with more detail.
Starting with the most rebellious group:
The final group of Jews is the one that rebels until the very last instant, after all individuals of the Good Grape Harvest of Jews have been taken or martyred, and are all in God’s Heaven.
Although still considered to be of the ‘elect’ this extremely rebellious group will have missed their chance to attend the Marriage Supper of the Lamb in God’s Heaven; They’ll not be killed but will instead be ‘translated’ directly into the Millennial Kingdom, because they finally call upon the name of the Lord, Jesus Christ or Yeshuah ha Mashiach. Sadly, they’ll miss out on meeting our Holy Heavenly Father, but they’ll be blessed to receive greatly extended life spans. They won’t receive glorified immortal bodies, but they’ll reproduce for up to 1,000 years while living in the Millennial Kingdom of Jesus Christ.
Introducing the other two groups of Jews on Earth who’ll be saved:
Both these groups are of the Fruit orGood Grape Harvest. As I understand it, they’ll receive lives of eternal love from Jesus Christ, starting with being taken to heaven to meet God Almighty and will be greatly blessed to be invited to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb as ‘bridesmaids.’ And they’ll receive glorified immortal bodies right away.
This is what the Lord says: “As when juice is still found in a cluster of grapes and people say, ‘Don’t destroy it, there is still a blessing in it,’ so will I do in behalf of my servants; I will not destroy them all. I will bring forth descendants from Jacob, and from Judah those who will possess my mountains. (Isaiah 65:8-9)
I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. (John 15:5-6)
Most of the Jews will be saved through desperate repentance under extremetribulation. At last, many will reach out to Jesus as their Messiah, and as God the Son, with terrible, deep, heart wrenching sorrow.
These will mostly be from among the Jews living in Israel during the beginning of the greatesttribulation of all time. Hopefully a great many of those will follow Jesus their Messiah’s instructions, given in Matt. 24:21 to flee to the mountains when they see the abomination of desolation being set up in the holy place .
Jews living in other places will probably see the A.O.D. on their devices.
Those in Judah will be under greater pressure to take the Mark of the Beast or be martyred. Not every Son of Jacob who flees to the mountains will necessarily be a newbeliever; Some might follow the group just because they see others fleeing. Hopefully many of those will get saved once they get there.
Christians have long been stuffing the cracks of the caves and dugout buildings of Bozrah/Petra full of Bibles in preparation for the coming 1,260 days that the Jews will soon be spending there.
1,260 days after the A.O.D.’s first appearance, Jesus Christ will send His angels to gather believers from the mountain safe place that He prepared for them, and presumably from wherever else in the world they’ll be hiding. They are all the owner’s portion of Jesus’ Good Grape Harvest.
19.3 Glory God Beyond, Jews
Bozrah/Petra in the Jordan Valley is most likely the safe place although some scholars think it’s in Sinai.
The group of Jews that obey Jesus Christ’s instructions to flee to the mountains must be from the group described in Rev. 11, those who turn and give God glory, after seeing the Two Witnesses resurrected and raptured, and the great earthquake that destroys ten percent of Jerusalem killing 7,000 people.
The final part of the Good Grape Harvest, the gleanings, consists of most of the rest of the newly believing Jews, the ones who will not have fled to the refuge fast enough. They’ll be martyred. Since they’ve all become saints, Jews from the last two groups will be taken to heaven, to meet our Heavenly Holy Father and to take part in the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
The reason I think they’ll not have missed that ‘once in an eternity’ opportunity is because the Wedding Supper is described in the Book of Revelation, five chapters after Jesus Christ harvests His owner’s portion of the ‘good grapes.’
19.4 Glory God Beyond, Jews
All harvests of the Jews begin after the 7th trumpet is blown:
The seventh angel sounded his trumpet,
and there were loud voices in heaven,
which said:
“The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Messiah, and he will reign for ever and ever.”
Rev. 11:15
As mentioned at the top of this post, there are also Jews in Judah who won’t flee to the mountains or be martyred.
After the A.O.D. is set up, this group still tries to rely on their own strength and any other methods including calling upon the true Almighty God, but without acknowledging the name of God’s Son, their Messiah. Passages in Zechariah and Romans support this. They won’t call out to Jesus Christ until about one second before they will have been utterly annihilated. In other words, only at: Satan’s ultimate showdown, a breathing fire down your throat moment, will they finally call upon the name of their true Messiah.
19.5 Glory God Beyond, Jews
Jesus Christ the Glorious Worthy Savior
The very instant they call upon their glorious Savior King, in any language, the horrible reality from beyond anyone’s worst nightmare vanishes – in a flash! So instantaneously will it vanish, that they might actually wonder if it was all just a dream! Yet, Jesus Christ their Savior Messiah King will be right there in front of them, elevated on His supernatural white horse wearing a spectacular blood stained white garment; He’ll Be In ALL His Glory! And He’ll be backed up by His myriads and myriads of holy angels and all the holy saints wearing pristine white linen while riding supernatural horses that gallop on air!
Climax
The climactic moment!
19.6 Glory God Beyond, Jews
As soon as these Jews call on His name the sky literally splits open and everybody on Earth sees the Glory of Jesus Christ and His people, His Kingdom and His spectacular angelic host. The double edged sword comes out of His mouth; He speaks the WORD of truth for all His enemies on Earth to hear. Unable to bear the truth, most of his enemies will drop dead on the spot – defeated – by perceiving themselves – where they actually stand – in the severity of God Almighty’s Holy Light, by His standard of perfection, in the Glory of Truth in Jesus Christ’s name!
By the time the above final Armageddon event will have happened, there will have already been other appearances of Jesus Christ within the final 7 years, such as at the sixth seal, when even the throne of God the Father is glimpsed by everyone, and at the main harvest of the Jews, just a month before Armageddon. There’s even a time when Jesus Christ will actually set foot upon Earth, although not appearing to very many! Yes, the Bible says He’ll descend into Egypt and make His way up through the Jordan Valley to shed the blood of Edom, Moab and Ammon. That part He did completely alone! That’s why His garments will already be stained red when He arrives with the saints and angels at Armageddon.
19.7 Glory God Beyond, Jews
Three Harvests, each with three parts:
First Fruits of the Barley Harvest could also be the captives Jesus removed from Hades, the ‘Bosom of Abraham’, when He “took captivity captive” (Eph. 6:8).
My interpretation of the two harvests of Rev. 14, is that only the second is the grapes of wrath.
19.8 Glory God Beyond, Jews
The 10 Lost Tribes
Abraham – Issac – Jacob – Joseph – Ephraim
The 10 Northern Tribes, who became lost, were called ‘Ephraim‘ because Ephraim was the largest and most dominant of those tribes. Ephraim, the grandson of Jacob, was the second son of Joseph.
Jacob loved Joseph more than his other sons because he was born of Rachael his beloved chosen wife. (Remember ‘Leah,’ Rachel’s sister, was forced upon him by their father ‘Laban’.) All of Joseph’s brothers became so jealous that they sold Joseph to traveling merchants, who dragged Joseph to Egypt. In Egypt, Joseph was mistreated and imprisoned for two years, but was released in the third year. He eventually rose to become the right hand man of Pharaoh!
Joseph’s role is crucial! He’s the foreshadowing of the ultimate suffering servant, Jesus Christ, as He was revealed in His first coming. Joseph’s role embodied the ‘forgiving spirit’ and humility, which he maintained even after his rise to be the right hand of Pharaoh, who was the King of kings of middle Earth at that time. The parallel is that Jesus ascended to the highest heaven and sat on the throne at the right hand of God the Father Almighty. But there’s another interesting parallel, one which is often overlooked; Both have a gentile (or mostly gentile) wife!
19.9 Glory God Beyond, Jews
Association with Gentiles Continues on with Joseph’s Future Descendants through Ephraim:
Hosea 7:8 “Ephraim mixes with the nations.”
Genesis 48:19 “. . . his younger brother (Ephraim) will be greater than he, and his descendants will become a group of nations.”
Hosea 9:17, “My God will reject them because they’ve not obeyed him – they (Ephraim) will be wanderers among the nations.”
Thus began the epic saga of the Sons of Jacob: Egypt – Exodus – Wilderness – Marriage covenant with God Almighty – Promised Land – Rebellion – Judges – Kings – Division – Divorce – Lost – Return!
Presumably, in modern day Israel, there’s a notable element of descendants from of the Northern Tribes that now just call themselves Jews, because in the 722 BC exile, at least some Israelites from most of the 10 Northern Tribes, escaped the Assyrian exile by taking refuge in Judah. Also, some rejoined the Jews in Babylon.
19.10 Glory God Beyond, Jews
The tribe of ‘Dan’ may be the exception. They may have truly vanished from Earth, as they did not stick to their land inheritance. In their wanderings, they were drawn to the foot of Mt. Hermon, the top of which is thought to be the location of the portals that the fallen angels used to come to Earth and corrupt human DNA. In the first century, the foot of that area was within Caesarea Philippi and was commonly called the Gates of Hades (hell).
When Jesus and Peter were standing there, Jesus said:
And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. (Matt. 16:18-19)
Then he ordered his disciples not to tell anyone that he was the Messiah. Notice there is no tribe of Dan included in the 144,000. (Rev. 7: 5-8)
Even the UN knows about the fallen angel portals. That’s why they have an off limits station up top, a topic for another post! Israel just got control of it. (See link at the bottom of 28.Lucifer Impostor.)

A note on the word ‘elect’:
When the word elect is used surrounding the events of the Time of Jacob’s Trouble, . . .
. . . it can be misunderstood by Christians who assume that the term ‘elect’ always only refers to church saints. As a result, many of them are forced to conclude that even the bride of Christ will be present on Earth when God’s expresses His final accumulated and long restrained wrath toward human kind, in the form of severe judgments upon the whole planet, which will be worse than the Nazi holocaust, not only for the Jews, but for everyone!
The Old Testament, as well the New Testament, at times, uses the term ‘elect’ to refer to certain Sons of Jacob. The Day of the Lord is specifically called The Time of Jacob’s Trouble because it’s deeper purpose is to fully bring into fruition the promises God made to Abraham. To fulfill those promises, God always intended that the biological Sons of Jacob would also ‘overcome the world’ by calling on the name of Jesus Christ; It was never just about the grafted on gentiles. Even those Sons of Jacob who cry out at the last second will be called ‘elect.’ I believe they will be counted among the sheep, as that is the only group left.
Matt. 34 “Then the King will say to those on His right (sheep), ‘Come, you who are blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.
The Old Testament’s full of warnings to the Israelites and Jews about the Time of Jacob’s Trouble. It’s of the utmost importance to God the Father, who created everything for and through His Son the WORD, to bring a remnant of all the remaining tribes of the Sons of Jacob into His promised Kingdom, as it will manifest here on a temporarily revived version of this Earth. God promised that it’ll be ruled by a descendant of Judah through the line of David, but not through Solomon, because Solomon turned to Baal, the worst form of idol worship.

More Specifics about the Good Grape Harvest of the Jews:
According to Torah Law, the first fruits of any harvest must be presented to God Almighty before the owner of the field can harvest his portion.

Here’s a related passage from the Old Testament, Daniel 12:2 “sometime after the archangel Michael wars against Satan in heaven, many of Daniel’s people (Sons of Jacob) who sleep in the earth will awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt”
As for the part about the Jews who’ll awaken to everlasting shame, I’m assuming Daniel’s vision used ‘condensed time,’ for a forward glimpse at the Great White Throne Judgment, because those coming to shame and everlasting contempt will not be resurrected until the completion of the Millennium.
We can check the harvest chart above: The owner’s portion of the Fruit or Good Grape Harvest doesn’t take place until Rev. 14. Since the first fruits of the Good Grape Harvest must have happened before that, it fits that those who slept in the earth and will awake to everlasting life, mentioned in both Rev. 12 and Daniel 12:2, are in fact the first fruits of the grape harvest.

Remembering the Gleanings
Since using the three harvest model, those who I used to call the ‘last martyrs,’ although they literally are the last martyrs, are more appropriately called the gleanings of the Good Grape Harvest.
But, are 100% of the gleanings of the Good Grape Harvest Jews?
I deduce ‘no’, using the following rational: About 30% of the people included in the ‘Hall of Faith’ of Hebrews 11, are not sons-of-Jacob, nevertheless some of those are very likely to be among the 24 elders: Abel, Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Sarah and Rahab; also Deborah and Job. So, likewise, there could be a number of gentiles who’ll be among the last martyrs who follow the Jewish Messiah and refuse the Mark-of-the-Beast at the latter part of the Day of the Time of Jacob’s Trouble. So they must be harvested as part of the gleanings of the Good Grape Harvest. The last gentile martyrs, even though they’re not part of the church, because the church isn’t appointed to God’s wrath, they will nevertheless be true Israelites by faith. They’re grafted onto the Olive Tree of Israel through that faith, and will have to prove it by their martyrdom. (That’s the final upward harvest.) The predominately Jewish nature of the last martyrs is demonstrated by the songs they sing in heaven: The Song of Moses, but also the Song of the Lamb! The following is a glimpse of them in heaven:
19.15 Glory God Beyond, Jews
And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God. And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvelous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints. Revelation 15:2-3
The Important Event That Sets off the Entire ‘Good Grape Harvest.’
The Two Witnesses
.
Their
Death
and
Resurrection
19.16 Glory God Beyond, Jews
Although this section is a bit out of order because the Two Witnesses, as the gleanings of the Wheat Harvest, are resurrected and raptured right before the first-fruits of the Good Grape Harvest, which I already described, I still need to write about them here:
After the events of the ‘sixth trumpet’ are completed. There is a pause in the trumpets;
St. John eats the scroll given to him by an awesome angel of God.
Then St. John finds himself transported to a future time where he’s told to measure the temple of God. After that an angel tells him about the Two Witnesses, stating that they’re ‘the two olive trees and the two lamp stands’. The angel gives St. John more information about them: That they’ll be given great powers, as great as the powers Moses and Elijah had, and that they’ll use those powers when they’re threatened, which will make the world hate them. The angel explained that they’ll be killed by the Beast when they finish their 1,260 day testimony. The angel explained that it will happen after the Beast ascends from the abyss, and that the two witnesses will lay in a Jerusalem street for 3 1/2 days, while the world celebrates. The angel explained that the two witnesses will be resurrected and raptured 3.5 days later in front of a great multitude of observers who will hear God voice say “Come up here!” They will ascending in a cloud, just like Jesus had done 2,000 yrs prior.
19.17 Glory God Beyond, Jews
See Chart: It might seem strange that the Two Witnesses are the gleanings of the multinational Wheat Harvest, since we’ve been focusing on the Hebrew Israelites in this post. But, there’s not a single part of any harvest, that I know of, that doesn’t contain some of the Sons-of-Jacob/Hebrew-Israelites and/or Jews!
The Turning Point, a summary:
Immediately after the Two Witnesses are resurrected, a severe earthquake will destroy a tenth of Jerusalem, which will kill 7,000 people. This particular cluster of events will finally provoke many, especially the eye witnesses in Jerusalem, to terror, which is what will cause a great number to turn to the one True Almighty God in the name of His Precious Son, Jesus Christ! So, at last, at last they’ll give Him the righteous glory, in Jesus Christ’s name, the glory that only He deserves. They’ll acknowledge Jesus Christ as their Messiah; He’s the shine on God our Father’s glory. Jesus Christ the Holy One, with no shadow to be found within Him, will receive the worship that only He deserves! HALLELUJAH!
See, my servant will act wisely; he will be raised and lifted up and highly exalted. Just as there were many who were appalled at him— his appearance was so disfigured beyond that of any human being and his form marred beyond human likeness— so he will sprinkle many nations, and kings will shut their mouths because of him. For what they were not told, they will see, and what they have not heard, they will understand. (Isaiah 52: 13-15)
All glory to the True Living God, who created this magnificent universe through the living WORD, who is Jesus Christ our Loving Savior. His glory shines through even though His creation’s been corrupted by satan, fallen angels, Nephilim and humanity.
Glory, glory, glory to Jesus Christ! Death could not hold Him! He’s the exact image of God in the flesh. He was and is forever sinless! Anybody who apprehends this fact, believes and continues to have faith, until the end, will be covered by His Holy blood, will appear completely justified in the eyes of our Holy Heavenly Father and will be exempted from the second death, to be adopted into His family and loved for ever and ever.
The Names of Jesus | Angel Songs – Heaven Songs | Angelic Hymn Of Heaven
Glory to our Almighty Holy Heavenly Father, in the name of His Son Jesus Christ who is the Living Word through whom He spoke the universe in to existence. And He is the promised Messiah of Israel who will save the whole world. He’s our Lord and Savior, who took our sins upon Himself and absorbed the just wrath of our Holy Father, on account of our sins . . . unto unspeakable suffering . . . unto to death. And even worse than that, there was a small amount of time when He had to be separated from God our Father.
We’ll see the glory of our Holy Father, our Creator, who breathed life into us.
We’ll see Him intimately, face to face, and we’ll feel safe. He’ll live among us and we’ll experience His glorious light and love forever and ever in the new heavens and the new Earth that He’s going to create right after the Millennium. In Jesus Christ, God Himself suffered for us and died in our place. He covered our sins with His Holy Blood. There’s no greater love! He asks for us to love Him back, to consume Him (His word), and to also love and to forgive each other in this life, leaving all vengeance to Him. He will vindicate righteously.

Hebrews 10:25
Proverbs 25:2
of the ‘great deception,’ are turbocharging now. My studies, based on the Septuagint Daniel 9:27 Old Greek manuscripts, show that we’re already in the beginning of Daniel’s 70th week. (I think the ‘great tribulation’ but not the greatest tribulation, begins when Jesus Christ releases the fourth horseman of the Apocalypse, and that it’ll last about a year.) The rebellious portion of the great ‘apostacy’ of the church is multiplying. We won’t be able to resist, unless we focus every possible moment on the truth, washing ourselves in His word without neglecting His prophesies. His word tells us to WATCH. So we also need to pay attention to what’s happening in the world, so we can discern all the things we’ve been warned about, while simultaneously guarding our behavior and thoughts to ‘keep our garments clean.’
strange, isolated congregations. I think satan used those groups to scare modern believers into not watching at all, causing many who are fearful, to attack God’s watchmen and women rather than edify them. Those who seriously watch and warn are sometimes falsely accused by their own brethren of being the exact opposite of who they are. It’d be good for all of us if all who call themselves Christians resist joining that ungodly army, which is set upon tearing down God’s watchmen and women, because being against ‘watching’ is of the antichrist spirit! Jesus explained it in ‘The Parable of the Faithful Servant.’
the only one place named Rapture in the world; It’s an unincorporated community in Posey County. And, although it’s in Indiana, it’s near the border and is considered by some to be part of Little Egypt, which was an American Coptic Christian settlement.
Different schools chose different Bible expositors to hold in high esteem, so teachers must leave out, spiritualize or twist Bible passages that don’t fit their school’s paradigm and the glosses cause waves of warpage.

Jesus said He’d tarry and His tarry may have started from the 2025 Pentecost/Shavuot date,, which is the time of the fulfillment of the Barley Harvest. The Book of Ester will remain in the radar of AlephTav.blog until God’s third temple goes up, if were still here. see:

Haman is ultimately destroyed on the very gallows he made for Mordecai! Queen Ester risked being put to death, by approaching King Ahaseurus on his throne. She revealed her Jewish roots, the truth that Mordecai had adopted her, and stood up for the Jews. This is paralleled by the fact that through the blood of Jesus Christ, the true church is adopted into God Almighty’s family. We’re given Jewish roots not only by being grafted on to the the olive Tree of Israel, but by being covered by Jesus’ Jewish blood. Jesus Christ maintains our position in the most high family through His role as our High Priest forever; He’s faithful to sprinkle His holy blood on us every time we approach God our Father’s throne . . . for eternity. Ester stood up for the Jews despite the fact that she didn’t grow up in a Jewish community; She was raised more like a gentile in Persian culture despite having been adopted by Mordecai, who was Jewish. The parallel is: America, the only country in the world willing to stand for the Jews, is the country that has had the greatest/most concentrated number of saints of the bride-of-Christ since Israel was reestablished as a nation. Although the ‘church’ in America has, for the most part, divorced itself from the true word of God, the over 250 years of Christian foundation previously built, was still making it possible for America to stand up for the Jews, for a short while; not because the Jews are good, but because they’re of the promise to Abraham through Sara, and also because they’re the biological brethren of Jesus Christ, through whom God the Father sent His perfect Son who is our Savior, the one who paid the price for our eternal sin debt, with His blood. Vashti, the deposed rebellious wife of King Ahaseurus, represents the ‘Israel of the Old Covenant‘ who for the most part did not love or respect YHWH, as evidenced by rarely ceasing to be disobedient as a nation.
The agenda was a powerful strengthening, for 7 more years, of a prior 7 year United Nations agreement. That’s why it garnered a lot of attention from watchers; Unfortunately, most of their videos have been shunned by search engines. But, thank God, many can still be accessed from a list I made: See bottom of post 3. Midnight Cry Portent. This event may have even awakened some sleeping Christians from their slumber, because it seemed to perfectly match the Daniel 9:27 ‘agreement with many.’ That’s at least as it appears in most translations today, which are derived from the Masoretic text. It certainly did serve the purpose as major HEADS UP for those with ears to hear.
65 years later, immediately after St. John experienced His first amazing Revelation vision, that of Jesus Christ walking among the seven golden lamp stands, 
which represent the 7 church types, St. John looked and saw an open door. 
“He heard God say ‘Come up here’ and he went up and saw seven blazing torches before the throne of God; then he saw the Lamb who appeared to have been slaughtered in the center of the throne.” (Rev. 4:1)
At last, many will reach out to Jesus as their Messiah, and as God the Son, with terrible, deep, heart wrenching sorrow.
