I do, I do! :)
Hi. I'm new here as of this morning, 08/09/2017. The reason I have sought out this community of Believers is that I feel and believe strongly that the rapture will be during the feast of trumpets of this year. Before everyone freaks out about that last statement, please know that I have no idea of which day or hour, but I do believe that that it will be sometime during that feast of trumpets this year. Has anyone else been receiving this impression?
Anyway, I wanted to join in here because at this point, I am more focussed on watching for Him than my regular tasks and duties. I have been praying for opportunities and words to share with my five children, some of whom I believe are Believers, and some maybe not, only the LORD knows. I also have a strong feeling to be speaking about these things with others as well. But, my experience even within my own real-world community of Believers is that people do not want to talk about the rapture for very long because they feel trepidation about it. Even Believers. That fear, I believe is the fear of the unknown, and fear is not from the LORD. "He has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and love and a sound mind." However, since I anticipate that this "feeling" or "impression" will continue to strengthen over the next month or so, I decided to check this "place" out and see if this might be an appropriate and active fellowship of other "JESUS" freaks like myself.
Incidentally, this feeling, (maybe a "Word" from the LORD?) began to really intensify about one week ago. We know that the LORD gave us many signs of the season of His return. We also know that the culture, at large, fits the description perfectly of how things will be prior to the wrapping up of this portion of history. It is the signs in the moon, sun, and stars, as well as now, the recent intensification of the geopolitical scene that reaffirm this belief that we are out of here this year on the feast of trumpets. There was the sign of the three red-blood moons over the past several years (Rabbi Jonathan Cahn), so there you have the moon sign. The sun sign, along with other sun happenings, is this upcoming eclipse, and finally, there is the unmistakable sign of the stars, which has been called the "
Revelation 12 sign" that will occur during, you guessed it, the feast of trumpets this year. While we do not know the exact day and hour, the LORD said, "When you see these things, look up!" Finally, this business with North Korea. A couple of things are interesting about that to me. First, there is a real possibility of nuclear war. Some people have theorized that America is not mentioned in Bible prophecy of the end times because it has been "wiped out" somehow. Or, there is something that causes the United States to not be a "player" in the end-times events. Involvement in a nuclear war, whether on our soil, theirs, or both would easily cause Americans to focus on American, if there is anything left of it. But, for me, perhaps the most compelling possibility of this escalating conflict with North Korea is a sign, is that North Korea has been working with Iran on the nuclear programming. North Korea does not have the capability, really to take America out, but what if Iran, in support of North Korea, and probably in conjunction with a opportunistic Russian alliance with Iran decided to hurt America by attaching Israel? Plausible? Probable? And there you have it.
I welcome discussion, please!
May the LORD bless and keep us all and make our discussions fruitful!
