Summary of Bible references on the Rapture

Hebrews 13:1-10 -- Keep on loving one another

1 Keep on loving one another as brothers and sisters.

There has been a concerted effort for the last few years to divide Americans. They teach that people who support one candidate are “deplorable”, “irredeemable”, “chumps”, “racists”, “fascists”, etc. The basic strategy is to “divide and conquer”. The Lord’s strategy is to “keep on loving one another”.

2 Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.

I was in Washington DC Jan 6th. The mayor was inhospitable. Prior to the rallies the mayor shut down the city with all kinds of threats and concerns about the pandemic. Much of this was an illogical response. There have been numerous studies that show that viral load is critical in determining how sick people get. The reason people get sick and get the flu in the winter is because they go indoors. When you are indoors it is much easier to get a higher viral load. The Bikers whose event was called a super spreader event was traced back to a bar. Those bikers caught it while sitting in a bar. We have had rallies and protests for months and months and none of them have been super spreader events. These events are human based experiments and support this theory that viral load is much less outside than inside. If people feel they are in a category of most susceptible to the pandemic they aren’t going to come to DC. The rallies take place outside. If these rallies were super spreader events as they pretend then tens of thousands of people would be in the hospital as we had massive rallies all over the country prior to the election. If you are outside and there is even a small breeze the virus gets dispersed in a huge volume of air. Yes, you can still be exposed to the virus but being exposed with a very small viral load does not make you sick, it makes you immune. It is the exact same concept as why we give people a vaccine. I was at the first rally in Washington DC with over a hundred thousand people. I was at Atlanta, I was at Harrisburg, and I was at the second rally in Washington DC. Almost everyone at these rallies has been to several rallies. Yes it is anecdotal evidence, but anecdotal evidence for hundreds of thousands of people. That is the same thing as experimental evidence.

The mayor has also been pushing privately to have the national guard arrest the protesters for “unlawful assembly”. The national guard has refused. I was stunned at all the boarded up businesses here clearly trying to protect themselves from BLM (they put up signs on the boards saying they support BLM). I learned that homicides skyrocketed by 40% her first year as mayor and I also learned that Blacks have been hurt more by covid in Washington DC than any other city in the US due to her missteps. Still others complain that the schools are a mess with cronyism and elitism allowing preferential treatment for the rich and well connected. On the flip side she is a black woman. This is known as “identity politics” rather than looking at a person’s resume. When I was at the rally one speaker asked who was there from someplace other than DC and it seemed that all the hands shot up. There were a million or more visitors who came to this city Jan 6th and saw her incompetence.

3 Continue to remember those in prison as if you were together with them in prison, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering.

The way they have treated people who were whistle blowers concerning the election fraud and the January 6th protestors is horrendous. They dox them, they threaten them, they attack them and yes, they even imprison them. The US has not yet become Communist China, we are not treated as bad as people in China. However, the politicians that sold us out, sold us out to China, the Great Red Dragon. Change is coming.

4 Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.

The US has become Sodom and Gomorrah. Epstein’s pedophile island has revealed how extensive and widespread this is among the elites, the rich and the powerful. This is one way that they are able to “own” these politicians and judges. One way is simply buy them off, the other way is to have compromising information about them. It is called a honey pot.

5 Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” 6 So we say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?”

There are many who choose to do the right thing and have had their careers destroyed as a result. There are news outlets that were on Youtube but Youtube censored and banned them. They have gone to Parler, GETTR, TruthSocial and Rumble at financial loss. There is a price to pay to take this path and the Lord has promised to never leave us or forsake us. Just pray, the Lord is my helper. I left NYC because of the vaccine mandates. My wife and I both left our jobs and moved to South Dakota. I have already gotten a job with the school system, my son has already gotten a job at a restaurant, and my wife has also gotten a job. The Lord is our helper, trust Him.

7 Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith.

The Black Robed Regiment is just one example. It is wonderful to study the “biblical history” of the US. By that I mean the words of faith that impacted the course of this nation. Martin Luther King Jr., is a leader you can consider, Nelson Mandela is another, the apostle Paul, Peter, John and James are others. They suffered injustice, they were imprisoned unrighteously, they were slandered, stoned and many were martyred but despite all that they never turned to violence. I am now a member of the Gideon's ministry, since 1908 the Gideon's have distributed 2.5 billion bibles worldwide.

8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

Look at the context of this verse. The things we are going through today are the same as they were a few years ago, a few decades ago, a few centuries ago, and even a few millennia ago. Likewise those who were one with Jesus in these trials were also the same.

9 Do not be carried away by all kinds of strange teachings.

Strange teachings would definitely be teachings that are not in the Bible.

It is good for our hearts to be strengthened by grace, not by eating ceremonial foods, which is of no benefit to those who do so.

The teaching that the bread and wine that we eat during the Lord’s table is magically transformed into the body and blood of Jesus is a strange teaching. Grace will strengthen your hearts, faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God. It is faith that strengthens your heart. Courage is the expression of faith, love and hope.

10 We have an altar from which those who minister at the tabernacle have no right to eat.

Remember our altar, the Lord’s table, who gave his body and blood for us. He has made a covenant with us and that gives us a right to eat from that table.

Aaron's Budded Rod -- A picture of the rapture

Numbers 17:8 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses went into the tent of the testimony; and, behold, the rod of Aaron for the house of Levi was budded, and put forth buds, and produced blossoms, and bare ripe almonds.

Budded -- to bud, sprout, shoot, bloom

Genesis 40:10 And in the vine were three branches: and it was as though it budded, and her blossoms shot forth; and the clusters thereof brought forth ripe grapes:

This is a rapture scenario, after 3 days he is lifted up out of the prison and restored to his former position as cup bearer.

In Exodus 9:9-10 this word is used for sins that have not been dealt with properly. You think they were burned to ashes but you haven't repented of them before God. The "bud" as boils on the skin. In Leviticus 13:12 rebellion "buds" on the skin.

Numbers 17:5 And it shall come to pass, that the man's rod, whom I shall choose, shall blossom: and I will make to cease from me the murmurings of the children of Israel, whereby they murmur against you.

In this verse God lets you know who He chooses because their rod buds (translated as blossom). Jesus was declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead

So then the budding of the rod is a type of the resurrection of Jesus Christ where He was declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection of the dead.

Buds -- Flower, bud, blossom.

Exodus 25:31 this refers to the flowers on the lampstand. In verse 33 we learn the lampstand has three bowls like almonds with a knop and a flower in one branch, and three bowls like almonds with a knop and a flower in the other branch. So from this we learn that the flower is directly related to the lampstand, the church.

Produced Blossoms -- To blossom, shine, sparkle, gleam, twinkle

This is the first instance of this word being used in the Bible. It is reminiscent of the glistening robe of the Lord in Luke. It is often translated as "flourish" like a field of wild flowers in all their glory.

Psalm 132:18 His enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon himself shall his crown flourish.

Song of Songs 2:9 My beloved is like a roe or a young hart: behold, he standeth behind our wall, he looketh forth at the windows, shewing himself through the lattice.

In this translation "showing" himself is this word for blossom, shine, sparkle, gleam, twinkle. It depicts the resurrected Christ in His glory, just as He appeared on the mount of transfiguration.

Produced -- yielded, reward, dealt bountifully, do good, recompense

The first time this is used it refers to Isaac being weaned. In Genesis 50 Joseph's brothers are concerned that Joseph will requite the evil they did to him. This is the word for almonds. The rod produced these almonds, it was a reward, a recompense, a bountiful harvest, something good in God's sight.

Almonds -- refers to the almond tree and the name is a reference to the trees waking early from the winter sleep. The word refers to haste and ardour, it is the first tree to wake up from winter's sleep.

Ecclesiastes 12:5 Also when they shall be afraid of that which is high, and fears shall be in the way, and the almond tree shall flourish, and the grasshopper shall be a burden, and desire shall fail: because man goeth to his long home, and the mourners go about the streets:

The verses in this portion of the word appear to describe the period right before the rapture and start of the tribulation, the only thing that flourishes is the almond tree. This makes sense since it is the first to wake up from the winter sleep, everything else is dead.

11 Moreover the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying, Jeremiah, what seest thou? And I said, I see a rod of an almond-tree. 12 Then said Jehovah unto me, Thou hast well seen: for I watch over my word to perform it.

Here is Ellicott's commentary:

The poetry of the symbols is of exquisite beauty. In contrast to the words of terror, in harmony with the words of hope, he sees the almond-bough, with its bright pink blossoms and its pale green leaves, the token of an early spring rising out of the dreariness of winter. The name of the almond-tree (here the poetical, not the common, name) made the symbol yet more expressive. It was the watcher, the tree that “hastens to awake” (shâkêd) out of its wintry sleep, and thus expresses the divine haste which would not without cause delay the fulfilment of its gracious promise, but would, as it were, make it bud and blossom, and bear fruit.

Almond tree -- hastens to awake, the watcher.

We need to realize that this day which begins at sundown on Feb 5th in Jerusalem is a feast for the watchmen, those who have hastened to awake.

PROPHECY-- WORDS OF FIRE

repent now, repent now, repent now

Trees -- Consider the Feast of Trees

The almond tree is a play on words meaning "to watch". When the Lord charged us to watch for His coming He was charging us to be almond trees.

Matthew 3:10 And even now the axe lieth at the root of the trees: every tree therefore that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

This word is used 26 times in the New Testament! The number for God.

In this verse it is obviously an analogy for men.

17 times it refers to men

Whenever it is used for men it is used as a comparison, as the verse above, between those that bring forth good fruit and those that bring forth evil fruit. The watchmen are prophets and the scoffers and mockers are the trees with evil fruit.

2 Times it refers to the church

2 time it refers to the Mustard plant becoming a mutated herb. A reference to the church being distorted by man. The kingdom is supposed to be a herb that would keep away pests and instead it becomes distorted to be a place that houses evil birds which steal the word of God. Antipas would be a good tree, Jezebel and Balaam would be the evil birds in this tree.

6 time it refers to trees they cut branches from.

During Revelation and the tribulation it talks about trees being burned up and when Jesus entered Jerusalem they cut branches from trees to line the ground. Those branches could be seen as the good works that paved the way for the Lord to come.

1 time it refers to nations

The fig tree is a different word, but in one verse it says the fig tree and "all the trees".

4 New Years and the Final Redemption

1. Nisan 1 — New year for kings, so we count all holidays from Nisan 1. This is when kings would ascend.

2. Elul 1 — New year for animal tithes. Fiscal year for all things to do with animal sacrifices.

3. Tishrei 1 — The Head of the Year. New year for years. Also the first of Sabbatical years and Jubilee years.

4. Shevat 15 — New Year for trees. The only New Year that takes place on full moon. Says “the new year for tree”. This is written Tet Vav because if you write 15 the other way it is God’s name. So instead of 10-5 you say 9-6. 9 is finality and 6 is man, Jesus died at the ninth hour of the day when He said “it is finished”. So it makes sense that the rapture would be on the 15th, because “it is finished”. Six is one less than 7 which is perfection. Man is lacking something, it isn’t good for man to be alone, we need man + God to be perfect. Six is also the precursor to rest. Jesus was crucified on the sixth day of passover, so six also signifies the connection with God is completed.

This is the day the new year begins and you must bring your fruit offerings. This is when the sap in trees start flowing up again. The sap flows up to provide energy for the tree to bud, the energy comes from the roots.

This is an obscure holiday in Jewish tradition. You are supposed to have 15 fruits and to study 15 chapters. Three groups of five. First group of five have very hard peels that you cannot consume the peel. Next five, have to remove the inner pit (dates, olives, cherries, peach, etc). Next five — grapes, figs, apples, pears, etc. Final level just smell (cinnamon, vanilla, rose)

You also study 15 chapters.

Why is it New year of the tree instead of trees. Because it is really referring to the tree of life. This is tied to the name of God of 8 letters, the Gematria is 91. We would translate this in English to Lord God. It is bringing God down into this world. 91 always represents an ability to connect heaven and earth. Angels are 91, the place you can experience heaven on earth is the sukot that is also 91. When you say Amen it is bridging heaven and earth, that is 91. The name of God that is associated with the laws of physics of this creation is also 91 (Elohim).

The original sin was eating the fruit of the forbidden tree. This fruit can rectify the forbidden fruit.

Passover is the first redemption and this meal signifies the final redemption with the Messiah.

Ezekiel 36 -- biggest sign of the end of days Israel is filled with fruit exporting fruits again.

The New Testament version would be the gospel would go into all the earth.

Officially Israel has had 14 prime ministers. There are 15 judges in the book of judges to get to a kingdom.

15 Judges --> Kingdom.

1st King was Saul a type of the Antichrist

Then you get David a type of Jesus .

Israel has had 14 official prime ministers.

Philippians 2:8 and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, becoming obedient even unto death, yea, the death of the cross.

There is one thing that unites Israel that all agree on which is to plant trees on Tu'B Shevat, it is a uniting holiday. It is the biggest sign of the Day of the Lord and it is also the humblest holiday.

When Jesus said that "no one knows the day or the hour" it suggested to me that it was a humble day. This is why I don't think it would be Passover, that doesn't make sense to me, that day has so much meaning already and everyone knows that day and every hour of that day.

It also makes a whole lot of sense based on the Bible that it is the full moon. That narrows it down significantly.

It makes sense it is in the winter.

It makes sense it is both the end of the year and the beginning of the year.

This is very exciting. I started this blog to investigate everything other than "when" the rapture will be and one of the biggest questions I had is what would we see prior to the rapture, what would be the biggest sign? Well now we know the biggest sign for Israel, often referred to as God's clock.

1. Ezekiel 36 -- 35 And they shall say, This land that was desolate is become like the garden of Eden; and the waste and desolate and ruined cities are fortified and inhabited. 36 Then the nations that are left round about you shall know that I, Jehovah, have builded the ruined places, and planted that which was desolate: I, Jehovah, have spoken it, and I will do it.

The biggest testimony of the redeemer is when you see a ruined life restored. When you see a guy who was gang member, a felon, a person who spent ten or twenty years in prison and now has been restored. This chapter talks about giving them a new heart, so we can see the spiritual reality, we can also see the physical reality. Today the entire world is falling apart, the cities are becoming desolate, crime is skyrocketing, the food supply is a mess, everything is collapsing. For years the Chinese worked incredible hours, something like 66 hours a week at slave wages with the hope that they could buy a house and have a better life for their kids. But the CCP stole everything and as the kids realized it was a total scam they started to "lie flat" a passive rebellion. This is the problem in the world, the leaders all have stony hearts, they steal, they lie and they murder.

The testimony is what happens when you put the old man to death, take up your cross and follow the Lord. That is how you find the path of salvation. That is how you turn the desolate wasteland into Eden and how you turn the ruined city into a fortified city.

But this led me to the humblest day on the calendar and yet that is the day that everyone can be one on. When people are fighting to be the king of the hill you will never get oneness, but when they humble themselves to be a servant and to even die the death of the cross, then everyone can be one with that person. Jesus was the forerunner but those that He has given a new heart to can follow after Him.

This is what we are finding and this is what the feast of trees is telling us. These are the ones with good fruit. These are the "watchmen" the first trees to wake up from the dead of winter, the trees with the glistening rapture, the trees that blossom like Aaron's budded rod.

This feast depicts the final redemption, the redemption of our body. There are 15 different fruits. It isn't just almonds, but we can try every fruit. It is the beginning of the year for those left behind and it is the end of the year for those who are harvested. This is the day that God takes his portion.

Hebrews 13:11-24 Let us go outside the camp, bearing the disgrace He bore

11 The high priest carries the blood of animals into the Most Holy Place as a sin offering, but the bodies are burned outside the camp. 12 And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate to make the people holy through his own blood. 13 Let us, then, go to him outside the camp, bearing the disgrace he bore. 14 For here we do not have an enduring city, but we are looking for the city that is to come.

If you are following the Lord, if you are bearing your cross and following Him, then surely you will have to go outside the camp and bear the disgrace He bore. This is not about the city we have but rather we are looking for the city to come. Our testimony is that this world is satanic, evil and corrupt. Why would you be surprised that they in turn attack and insult you? This is the point of the mask mandate, vaccine mandate, they are going to "other you", turn you into a leper. So then, let us go to Him, outside the camp, bearing the disgrace He bore.

15 Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise—the fruit of lips that openly profess his name.

This is a great test, can you openly profess His name and give a sacrifice of praise? If you are involved in doing something shameful you can’t, if you are doing something that the Lord prohibits you can’t.

16 And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.

Regardless of the situation you can always do good. While being crucified the Lord told one of the thieves that he would be with Him that day in paradise. He saw His mother and told the disciple “behold your mother”, even while dying He is taking care of others and doing good.

17 Have confidence in your leaders and submit to their authority, because they keep watch over you as those who must give an account. Do this so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no benefit to you.

Every leader has authority. Your boss at work has authority over you. They don’t have authority over your worship but they do have authority over the work you do in that job. The same is true of government leaders, they have authority over the city, state and federal government. They have the right to issue laws for your good. They don’t have the right to violate the laws of God. Ever since Noah human government has had a covenant with God to deal with murderers and provide a safe environment for us to live in. Rosa Parks refused to submit to a law that violated God’s law, Mahatma Gandhi also refused to submit to laws that violated God’s law. So then, if the law is according to the covenant that God made with Noah you need to submit, if the law violates God’s covenant then you can imitate the people of faith who have gone before us.

18 Pray for us. We are sure that we have a clear conscience and desire to live honorably in every way.

The apostles were slandered and lied about, but the testimony is that they had a clear conscience and desired to live honorably in every way. We should imitate them and we should also pray for those on the front lines, they are taking the brunt of Satan’s attack. Every way includes doing a good job, submitting to authority while also standing up for Christ, being crucified, and being in disgrace for your faith.

19 I particularly urge you to pray so that I may be restored to you soon.

This is why I think this was Paul. This appears to be written primarily by one person but because the major revelation in this book appears to be something that both Paul and James discovered he may not have felt comfortable attributing this book as from him. There may have actually been many saints who saw bits and pieces that Paul has compiled here.

20 Now may the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, 21 equip you with everything good for doing his will, and may he work in us what is pleasing to him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

This is our prayer, that the Lord’s will would be done. We have been fully equipped, by saying “we” I am referring to the Body of Christ.

22 Brothers and sisters, I urge you to bear with my word of exhortation, for in fact I have written to you quite briefly. 23 I want you to know that our brother Timothy has been released. If he arrives soon, I will come with him to see you.

Again, this appears to be referring to both Paul and Timothy and it also seems they were both imprisoned.

24 Greet all your leaders and all the Lord’s people. Those from Italy send you their greetings. 25 Grace be with you all.

Ye blind guides which strain at a gnat and swallow a camel

1. Treat people who are grandparents with no previous criminal record who "trespassed" on January 6th of being terrorists while ignoring 500 BLM protests where buildings were burned to the ground, people were killed and stores were looted.

2. You send $140 billion to secure the border of Ukraine while ignoring millions of illegals coming across the US border, many of which are involved in human trafficking and selling Fentanyl which is killing a hundred thousand a year.

3. You demand that everyone get an experimental vaccine or lose their job while at the same time screaming that you have the right to kill human babies because it is your body and therefore your choice.

Behold your house is left unto you desolate --> And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations: and then the end shall come.

This is world history since the time of Jesus. The temple being destroyed, not one stone upon another left, the Jewish house being left desolate while the gospel of the kingdom spreads throughout the entire world.

This is what has happened with the internet and google translate. Any person on the globe can access these videos, forums, blogs, and websites. Even if they don't understand the language you can cut and paste this to google translate. This wasn't true 20 years ago, but today it is. For two thousand years we have moved in this direction, the world wars have moved us to a less insular society, telecommunications with news from all over the world has made it less insular, airplanes, spaceships, satellites, computers, and the internet have all moved us relentlessly towards the fulfillment of this word. Then Youtube emerged, greater bandwidth, more powerful networks, wifi available everywhere have moved us to the fulfillment of this word.

Meanwhile in Jerusalem we have 5 red heifers, we have come to the 15th Prime minister and the initiation of a kingdom age in Israel starting with King Saul, a type of the antichrist. We can see that the temple is about to be built.

Joshua 6:1-20 -- Riding forth conquering and to conquer

1 Now the gates of Jericho were securely barred because of the Israelites. No one went out and no one came in.

Right now the world is terrified of the church, the gospel, and the Lord. They see everything that is coming true before their eyes and they know that means the day of judgement is near. Trudeau hiding in the basement when he sees the truckers is just one example, cancel culture getting smashed in their attempt to cancel Joe Rogan is another, the Olympics having horrendous ratings is a third. I saw this all the time in the gospel. When I was in college there were four of us brothers that preached the gospel every day. We would eat in the various college cafeterias and speak to those sitting at our table and then pray with them. We papered that campus with tracts and we had a monthly article that we put in the school paper. Once I was sitting at this table, it seated ten and I it was in the center of the cafeteria. All around me it was standing room only, I even saw two kids sharing one chair it was so crowded. I could see people taking their food to their room because there wasn't anymore room in the cafeteria. Meanwhile the other 9 chairs at my table were empty. I felt like the one of those gunslingers in the western movies, you walk into the saloon and everyone clears out. Now this was one of the top ten universities in the US at the time. These kids were exceedingly confident in how smart they were. It was stunning, it was just like what we see here with Jericho terrified of Israel.

2 Then the Lord said to Joshua, “See, I have delivered Jericho into your hands, along with its king and its fighting men. 3 March around the city once with all the armed men. Do this for six days. 4 Have seven priests carry trumpets of rams’ horns in front of the ark. On the seventh day, march around the city seven times, with the priests blowing the trumpets. 5 When you hear them sound a long blast on the trumpets, have the whole army give a loud shout; then the wall of the city will collapse and the army will go up, everyone straight in.”

Yes, we can now see that they have been delivered into our hand as Durham reveals that he has evidence that Clinton was spying on Trump even after he became president. This is a fantastic plan. Try and visualize a city that has a wall all the way around it. The wall is essentially a circle. It is supported on the inside so if you try to knock it down it will stand. The design is very sturdy at repelling those who are outside trying to get in, but it is very poor at stopping those on the inside from getting out. Now imagine you are in this city, locked tight and up on the ramparts of this wall you have soldiers watching what is going on. Everyone in the city wants to know “what are they doing?” They say “nothing, just walking around”. You think “no way, they are doing something, you are missing it, if I was up there I would see”. This goes on day after day after day. Finally on the seventh day they blast the trumpets, everyone inside knows that they are definitely doing something now and all around the city the inhabitants rush up the ladders to see what is going on and oops, there is nothing to prevent the wall from falling down flat. One time I had to go see my professor in his office and it was on the other side of campus from the parking lot. I figured as I walked across campus I would hand out tracts, but all I could find was one crumpled up tract at the bottom of my book bag. So I decided I would pray and ask the Lord to direct me who to give this to. I walked clear across campus, praying the entire time, must have seen at least 20 people and Lord didn't direct me to anyone. By the time I got to the office I was angry and decided I'd give it to the first person I saw in the office. A graduate student, a girl who was the girlfriend of the Professor was there. I walk up to her, say "this is for you" and thrust the tract for her. She took it and looked thoughtfully at it for about a minute and then said "How appropriate, I just learned I have lung cancer". The title of the tract was "Life at best is very brief, like the falling of a leaf".

6 So Joshua son of Nun called the priests and said to them, “Take up the ark of the covenant of the Lord and have seven priests carry trumpets in front of it.” 7 And he ordered the army, “Advance! March around the city, with an armed guard going ahead of the ark of the Lord.”

Now to do this properly you have to carry the ark, and to carry that ark you must be a priest who is sanctified. There is a proper way to bear the testimony of the Lord. There were some other brothers on the campus, they were jealous of us and spread some evil rumors about us. So we got together to talk with them. During our discussion it came out that one of the brothers recognized me from Freshman year before I had been baptized. I was surprised and said "you can recognize me?" He said "yes, and we glorify God".

8 When Joshua had spoken to the people, the seven priests carrying the seven trumpets before the Lord went forward, blowing their trumpets, and the ark of the Lord’s covenant followed them. 9 The armed guard marched ahead of the priests who blew the trumpets, and the rear guard followed the ark. All this time the trumpets were sounding. 10 But Joshua had commanded the army, “Do not give a war cry, do not raise your voices, do not say a word until the day I tell you to shout. Then shout!” 11 So he had the ark of the Lord carried around the city, circling it once. Then the army returned to camp and spent the night there.

We are proclaiming the coming of the king, we are proclaiming that the Bridegroom cometh, and we are proclaiming that it is the Day of the Lord. "All this time the trumpets were sounding". This is the last two years, this is what we have been doing, the trumpets have been sounding. One professor was not happy with my gospel preaching and told my parents I had wasted their money while at University. That was very hurtful, but I took what he said in prayer to the Lord. As I was walking across the campus I saw some student see me and then look down and away and the Lord said "remember, two years ago you spoke to him and every time he sees you it pricks his conscience". I began to see this all over campus and it became clear that we had circled that campus repeatedly and everyone at that campus was convicted in the spirit when they saw any of us.

12 Joshua got up early the next morning and the priests took up the ark of the Lord. 13 The seven priests carrying the seven trumpets went forward, marching before the ark of the Lord and blowing the trumpets. The armed men went ahead of them and the rear guard followed the ark of the Lord, while the trumpets kept sounding. 14 So on the second day they marched around the city once and returned to the camp. They did this for six days. 15 On the seventh day, they got up at daybreak and marched around the city seven times in the same manner, except that on that day they circled the city seven times. 16 The seventh time around, when the priests sounded the trumpet blast, Joshua commanded the army, “Shout! For the Lord has given you the city! 17 The city and all that is in it are to be devoted to the Lord. Only Rahab the prostitute and all who are with her in her house shall be spared, because she hid the spies we sent. 18 But keep away from the devoted things, so that you will not bring about your own destruction by taking any of them. Otherwise you will make the camp of Israel liable to destruction and bring trouble on it. 19 All the silver and gold and the articles of bronze and iron are sacred to the Lord and must go into his treasury.”

This is quite significant because at the Lord’s return He will call His servants to make account and they will need to bring forth the talents He gave them and show what they have done with them. Nothing will be lost. Everything belongs to the Lord. If you were to steal one of the devoted things you would be stealing from God. Also note that Rahab the prostitute represents someone on the inside who helped spy out the city. Right now we have people on the inside telling us about the corruption, the sins and the crimes of the Democrats, of the Biden crime family, and of many in the deep state. Afterwards that professor who had slandered me was put to an open shame before the whole school. I was in a Spanish class and heard the story as students were talking about it. He had to leave his position and I assume he wound up getting a divorce. I learned that day that "vengeance is mine, I will repay". We don't need to defend ourselves, if we are in the wrong we can confess and repent, if they attack the Lord's anointed He will take care of that Himself.

20 When the trumpets sounded, the army shouted, and at the sound of the trumpet, when the men gave a loud shout, the wall collapsed; so everyone charged straight in, and they took the city.

One translation is “they went straight up”. This is a picture of the rapture. It will be a glorious victory for the gospel. It will be our entry into the good land. It will mark the year of Jubilee where everything that was taken from us will be returned (Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob lived in the good land before going down to Egypt and becoming enslaved). It will also come like a thief in the night. When the saints are raptured Satan’s kingdom will be robbed.
