Let’s start where we left Day 6.
Before I say anything here, let me say this: I’m going to make many statements below that absolutely require supporting Scripture, me showing you how that Scripture is connected, and me explaining how it’s relevant. That would take up so much time and space on these pages that, unfortunately, we just can’t do here.
(Which, that’s why today’s article came out 2 days late. Because for the last 48 hours I’ve been trying to condense that material, but it just can’t be done. It’s 50+ hours of teaching the biblical Hebraic context, history, the scriptural connections, tying it all together for you, etc.)
So please just go with what's here. I will do my best to support everything. Just email me if you want more details.
We ended Day 6 with the following illustration showing the aerial view of the end of the age where we see the Hanukkah story’s final fulfillment in the middle of the end times. This will be a huge, one-time event including the Antichrist’s Invasion of the (Jewish) Temple (ACIT), the Abomination of Desolation (AOD), and the global issue of the Mark of the Beast (MOB). Combined = (ACIT+AOD+MOB)
Look at the illustration and see the time frame from where we are today (Hanukkah 2023) to the start of the end times.
You need to prepare yourself for international war and increasing economic chaos to come. Jesus spoke of wars at this time, and the book of Revelation predicts both war and economic chaos before the end times begin.
The aftermath of the the future international war (this will include Israel) and economic chaos to come will result in 3 things:
1.An international outcry for peace and safety.
2.An international covenant signed with Israel.
3. The rebuilding of the Jewish Temple - as a concession to Israel from the covenant mentioned above.
-----------------------
Let me interject here and add this.
In that 50+ hours of teaching I mentioned, at this point, you would understand how the Feasts of the Lord are prophetic rehearsals of the 1st and 2nd coming of the Messiah.
And I would be able to show you that the 7th Trumpet of Revelation is when the resurrection and rapture occurs at the (2nd) coming of Messiah in the illustration above. From that I could show you how to establish the sequence of end time events and explain the book of Revelation to you in detail and in chronological order as its symbolic events will unfold on the earth in real time.
Back to our story.
-----------------------
The rebuilding of the Jewish Temple happens at the 7th Seal in Revelation. The "silence in heaven" is the collective inhale and gasp of all heaven and the "cloud of witnesses" as they behold the beginning of Daniel's final 7 years. Now comes the "time of Jacob's trouble" - the end times.
Let me show you the “Maccabean Resistance.”
The “Maccabean Resistance” of the Future
Before the ACIT+AOD+MOB
The resistance has already started.
Today it’s less noticeable than it will be in the future as it grows and takes shape. Jesus prophesied it in a parable showing how both good and evil would increase on the earth before his return. I call it the “Polarization Effect.”
Have we not seen humanity becoming more divided over more issues in the last few years than ever before?
In the future we will see these divisions become more and more defined until ultimately, like the Jews were labeled and set apart in Germany before World War II, now it will be the true-Christians and the Jews who get set apart from the world and society. (Go back and listen to Jonathan Cahn’s video from Day 5 and read the article. Or just watch the news)
This is God’s plan.
Stop focusing on the chaff (evil) in the fields of the world, and set your focus on God’s plan for the golden wheat to grow and shine! YOU are the golden wheat.
How does he want you to rise up and be the light?
What are you called to individually in your part of the field?
What are you called to in God’s collective purpose for the future so you can grow and be a powerful force with others against the growing darkness? (Need an idea? Click here)
So in the future - and be clear on this - the disdain for traditional, Judeo-Christian values in the world will become much more intense. Eventually, it will be disdain for the Christians and the Jews.
Decide now where you stand.
After the ACIT+AOD+MOB
After the Antichrist invades Israel and sets up his image in the Temple and issues the mark of the beast, literally, all hell will break loose on the earth – spiritually and physically.
If you weren’t forced to make a public expression of where you stand before, you will now.
Again, this is part of God’s plan.
He’s actually separating evil so he can take it from the earth. The acts of his judgments in the seals and trumpets of Revelation are meant to bring repentance to those who have turned away from him or are still undecided.
His judgments always come with the greatest amount of mercy possible, and they are intended to turn people back to him.
With these events actually happening now, it will be clear that the end times biblical prophecies are taking place.
Overwhelmingly clear.
Believers in Messiah (Jewish and non-Jewish) will be “shining like the sun” as they proclaim what’s happening to everyone. This time is when the peak of the long-spoken-of great revival will happen globally.
I believe this is also the time when the 144,000 of Israel, who were spiritually-marked previously (some of whom I believe have already been marked and others are being marked as you read this), now rise up publicly all over the world to do miraculous wonders and offer spiritual and physical leadership to millions of people.
Likewise, the true-Christians (those who refuse the mark of the beast), will do the “greater works than these shall you do...” as Jesus predicted.
The Bible shows this is when the world sees the Two Witnesses of Revelation arise and prophesy against the Antichrist and those who are accepting the mark of the beast as they “shut up the sky... and turn waters into blood...” (Revelation 11:3-12).
This will be quite the resistance on the earth against the Antichrist and his armies.
Will you be part of it?
The Coming of Messiah
Bad news and Good news here.
The bad news: The 3 ½ year period I just described will end, “When the power of the holy people has been finally broken, all these things will be completed.”
The good news: The 7th Trumpet of Revelation will end that 3 ½ year period at the coming of Messiah. All who have died in Messiah (from Adam to the last of the end times martyrs), along with the believers in Messiah “...who are still alive and are left...” will meet Jesus in the air at his coming.
This is a future Yom Teruah (Day of Trumpets/Shouting). The feast of the Lord which is the prophetic rehearsal for this day just as we have seen the prophetic symbolism in the Hanukkah story.
The return of the King will be dazzling and terrible. He’s coming with wrath against the Antichrist and his armies who have killed God’s people, and many others, during the last 3 ½ years of this age, and against those who denied God and took the mark of the beast.
The Messiah, the Rider on the White Horse of Revelation, will come and make war on the earth against the Antichrist and his armies. The Bible predicts that final battle will be fought just northwest of Jerusalem in the Valley of Meggido (“Armageddon”).
Ten days of war will ensue as God releases the 7 bows of Wrath on the earth. The 10th day will be Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement). Yeshua will save Israel, destroy the Antichrist, and cast Satan into an abyss to be locked up for a thousand years.
And so concludes the end of the age with the coming of Messiah. What follows is the 1000-year reign of Yeshua on the earth with those who have accepted him as King, Lord, and Messiah.
The Millennial Reign of Messiah
Ohhh... there is much to say about this.
For now I will only say that what follows the end of the age is the beautiful restoration of all things.
That will have a few twists to it that you're not expecting!
To be continued...
