My dear friends it is held by
many Jewish and gentile believers that the Rapture of the Church will takeplace on a future Feast of Rosh Hashanah. This position does not at all
contradict the Holy Scripture since the Feasts of Passover, Unleavened Bread,
First Fruits and Pentecost all had major prophetic events including the mystery
of the church fulfilled on their Feasts Days (Isa. 53, Acts 2, 1 Cor. 5:7,15:23).
When the Rapture is fulfilled oneday on the Feast of Rosh Hashanah then 10 days later on the Day of Atonement -
when the nation of Israel is to greatly afflict their souls before the Lord -
Israel will then be met with Two of Israel’s most mighty men of old dressed in sackcloth (Rev. 11:3).
My dear friends I have been
absolutely blown away as I have looked more and more into the ministry of theTwo Witnesses of Revelation. They are the most neglected individuals of
Biblical prophecy today and because of this many are led astray with false
prophetic teachings of end time events. We here at the IFB have gone into great
depth of who these two individuals are and what their future ministry will be (Rev.11:3-12). These Two mighty men of old will have all eyes on them for the first
3 ½ years of the 7 year tribulation period as the gentile world spins EXPONENTIALLY out of control at the hands of the Four Horsemen. The world willexperience EXPONENTIAL supernatural catastrophic events on the creation,demonic global dominance and tyranny and the Quad Demonic War (Rev. 6-9). Itwill be during this time of EXPONENTIAL global catastrophe that Israel will
dwell in absolute security and safety (Ezek. 38:8-14). How can this be? We
shall see!
These Two mighty men of old will have all eyes on them for the first
3 ½ years of the 7 year tribulation period as the gentile world spins EXPONENTIALLY out of control.
It will be after this amazing event called the Rapture of the Church that the world - in particularly America
- will be absolutely shocked by the mass disappearance of believers in every
walk of society. This shock will be very short lived as global events and war
will lead into a covenant which a man from Europe will lend his political
weight on behalf of the greatly defeated enemies of Israel with a supervictorious Israel (Ezek. 38: 8-14, Dan. 9:27, Rev. 6:1-2). This
covenant is established with Israel
as the dominant power behind it and the newly revealed anti Christ as the
weaker; for his time has not yet come to dominate the world. He will have to
patiently wait 3 ½ more years for his lawless hour (Rev. 11:3-12, Rev. 13).
It will be on this day - the day
that the covenant is established (Dan. 9:26-27, Rev. 6:1-2) - that the Two Witnesses will begin their ministry
to Israel
and to the world dressed in sackcloth (Rev. 11:3). My dear friend there can
NEVER be any lasting peace for humanity or the Jew until Almighty God’s Law and
Messiah is placed in the heart of man (Isa. 53:3-5, John 1:12, Eph. 2:14, Col 1:27, 3:3). If we can see that
REALITY then we will NEVER have any problems with the delusions that the world
seeks to promote today. It is our position that the covenant with Israel by the
Anti Christ will take place on… the Day of Atonement and it is also our
position that the Two Witnesses will begin their 3 ½ year ministry on this date
also. The key to this position is to see the Holy Scriptures through the eyes
of the Jew and the fulfillment of other major prophetic events including the
death, burial and resurrection of the Messiah of Israel and the establishment
of the Church on the Feast Days of the Lord (Lev. 23, Matt. 5:17, Luke 24:24-49, John 5:39, Acts 2, 3:18, 28:23, 1 Cor. 15:2-4, Heb. 10:7).
My dear friend there can
NEVER be any lasting peace for humanity or the Jew until Almighty God’s Law and
Messiah is placed in the heart of man.
Unbelieving Israel is finally ina position now after a great decisive victory over their border enemies toestablish a delusional peace for themselves after centuries of being undergentile domination (Ezek. 38:8-14, Dan. 9:27), However in spite of their
victorious exploits and the fruit thereof they are NOT at peace with the God of
Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and God will use the 7 year tribulation to bring
Israel to the REALITY of their dire estate and condition before Almighty God
(Ezek. 39:26, Rev. 11:8). As the nation of Israel half heartedly honors the
Day of Atonement as their covenant of “shalom” is established, Two Men of oldwill appear on the scene dressed in sackcloth preaching “Repent, For the
Kingdom of Heaven is NOW at hand!” Much like John the Baptist did 2000 years
ago in preparing the nation of Israel for Messiah’s first coming and Kingdom
offer (Isa. 40:3, Matt. 3, 11:1-11, John 1:6-8, 29) and much like the WORD of
ALMIGHTY God (John 1:1-14) and the Messiah of Israel did in His 3 ½ year
ministry (Matt. 4:17, 10:7, 13) so will these Two Men of old (Moses and Elijah)
do (Rev. 11:3-12)!
The Day of Atonement or Yom
Kippur is the most solemn and holiest of all the Feasts of the Lord (Lev.23:27-32). It is a day of repentance, of afflicting of one’s soul and seeking
the Lord’s forgiveness for past national and individual transgressions. It is
the day that the high priest of Israel
would enter into the tabernacle or temple and make atonement for the nation of Israel . Israel has been
WITHOUT a temple and a high priest since 70 AD and without an atonement or
covering since the resurrection of the Messiah of Israel (Acts 2, 7). The
Messiah IS the fulfillment of all things! He is the perfect Lamb, the atonement
for the transgressor and the High Priest for not just Israel but for the whole world (Isa. 53, John3:16-17, Rom.10:2-4, Heb. 6:18-20, 7-9).
It will be when the Two Witnesses
begin their ministry that they will be in sackcloth and their entire ministry
will be that of preaching repentance unto all and the ETERNAL truths that Jesus
Messiah IS the Savior of the world and the Atoning One for the transgressions
of the world (Isa. 53, John 3:16-17)!
It will be that the 7 year
tribulation will begin on the Day of Atonement and seven years to the day will
end on the Day of Atonement. It will be when Israel is in its most desperate
hour and the Anti Christ has full reign on this world that he (the man of
lawlessness) will embark on his total eradication of Israel as NEVER EVER seen
before in the history of the world (Zech.12-14, Rev. 12). It will be at the end of
the seven year tribulation as the armies of the world seek to obliterate Israel
that the Messiah will come out of the Heavens with His heavenly armies and
those who are left of all Israel will see the very One they have greatly
despised and rejected for the last 2000 years (Zech.12:8-14, Rev. 19:11-21)!
Zechariah states that;
“The burden of the
word of the Lord for Israel, saith
the Lord, which stretcheth
forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the
spirit of man within him. Behold, I
will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all
the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem. And in that day
will I make Jerusalem
a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be
cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against
it. In that
day, saith the Lord, I will smite
every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness: and I will open mine
eyes upon the house of Judah,
and will smite every horse of the people with blindness. And the governors of Judah
shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall be my strength in the Lord of hosts their
God. In that
day will I make the governors of Judah
like an hearth of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire in a sheaf; and
they shall devour all the people round about, on the right hand and on the
left: and Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in
her own place, even in Jerusalem. The Lord also shall save
the tents of Judah first,
that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem do not magnify themselves against Judah. In that day shall
the Lord defend the
inhabitants of Jerusalem;
and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as David; and the house
of David shall be as God, as the angel of the Lord before them. And it shall come
to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come
against Jerusalem. And I will pour
upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of
grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced,
and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth (wailing) for his only son, and shall be in
bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn. In that day shall there be a great mourning (wailing) in Jerusalem , as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon. And the land shall mourn, every family apart; the family
of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of
Nathan apart, and their wives apart; The family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives
apart; the family of Shimei apart, and their wives apart; All the families that remain, every family apart, and
their wives apart.” - Zechariah. 12
My friend the Day
of the Lord will end with the majority of the nation of Israel afflicting their
souls in absolute repentance and they will then with all their being truly
repent and receive their Messiah; the Lamb, Atonement, Savior, Redeemer, King,
High Priest, Creator and Almighty God the Son (Psalm 2, 110, Isa. 9:6-8, 53,Heb. 1:1-3, 6:18-20, 7-10, Rev. 21:11-21)! Oh what a day that will be!
The Tribulation
will begin with the Day of Atonement and will end with the Day of Atonement fulfilling all of
Almighty God’s future kingdom promises to her!
The Tribulation
will begin with the Day of Atonement and will end with the Day of Atonement fulfilling all of
Almighty God’s future kingdom promises to her (Isa. 2:3, 11:10-17, 33:17-20, Ezek. 37:21, Amos 9:14-15,Mic. 4:1-4, Zech. 8:3, 12:8-14, 14, Rom. 11:25-27). It will be by
the mighty ministry and supernatural testimony of the Two Witnesses (Moses and
Elijah) that Almighty God will use these two as a Divine catalyst to bring
Israel to full repentance and to the reception of their Messiah (Zech. 12:8-14,Mal. 4, Rom. 9-11)!
The Kingdom
of Heaven is at hand!
