Matthew 12:38-40. "Then some of the Pharisees and teachers of the law said to Him, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from You.” He answered, “A wicked and adulterous generation asks for a sign! But none will be given it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of a huge fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth." There's a few things to consider here. We know this sign of Jesus being in the ground three days and nights before rising from the dead. The other part of this passage, however, talks about a wicked and adulterous generation. Sounds eerily like our present age, don't you think? (Don't we or the world elite look for a sign from Jesus to acknowledge these are the end days?) This is the second sign for the end times which we are living in. This is what we need to remember or consider, namely the other sign in the book of Jonah? It's about forty days. Here it is: (Chapter 3:4-5:) "Jonah began by going a day’s journey into the city, proclaiming, “Forty more days and Nineveh will be overthrown.” The Ninevites believed God. A fast was proclaimed, and all of them, from the greatest to the least, put on sackcloth." Nineveh was a large city. It took three days to walk across. As he (Jonah) walked through it he would have spoken out the word given to him to different groups of people. They, the Ninevites, seemed pretty quick to repent. What spooked them? From what we read it seems to be all of them collectively. Was it talk of a huge army coming against them or a natural disaster which Jonah mentioned? There is no mention of either. The word overthrown isn't a great word to my way of thinking. After having also looked at the meaning in Strong's Bible it had elements of what I was looking for but it too didn't seem to say what I was looking for. I then looked through many different Bible translations. The one in the New Living Translation is best to me. Here it is: "On the day Jonah entered the city, he shouted to the crowds: “Forty days from now Nineveh will be destroyed!” What was going to destroy Nineveh?
It was Nibiru! Or 7X or Planet X. (Read my last blog on this if you haven't already.) Jonah was pointing up at the sky. There in it was this large planetary object coming round the sun steadily coming closer. A good incentive to obey the Word of God! Why did God do it this way in Nineveh's case - tell them what is going to happen? The answer is for us now in the End Times. 7X is coming back in this time. We also will receive our forty days notice as the world elite run to their bunkers/underground cities/whatever. (Here's the Scripture for this: Revelation 6:15: "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." We the slaves, will also run. Where to I don't know but we will.)
Luke 21:28 says: "When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.” It should be fairly obvious from this He means something "physical " in the skies is a big clue. Like 7X. Given a forty day notice just like the Ninevites were. So what is the sign meaning for us then? Well, its meaning to go to a safe place. Where is safe from this? The middle of the earth is - ISRAEL. That's where it will have the least effect. Even here it will have an effect, however. More on this later.
Why then is Israel so important at this time that God would set up a series of circumstances to point to it? Let's look at the passage of Matthew 25:1-13. The Parable of the Ten Virgins. “At that time the Kingdom of Heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. Five of them were foolish and five were wise. The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them. The wise ones, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps. The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep.
“At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here’s the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’ “Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’ “‘No,’ they replied, ‘there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’ “But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut. “Later the others also came. ‘Lord, Lord,’ they said, ‘open the door for us!’ “But he replied, ‘Truly I tell you, I don’t know you.’ “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour." There is nothing so difficult about this passage except (1) in the last sentence to watch and (2) at the beginning than to also be ready or be prepared. The ones who are listening to or watching Him will be ready and prepared. (The voice crying out at midnight, by the way, is probably Elijah. The Two Witnesses have arrived soon after the peace treaty has been confirmed. Elijah will appear at his appointed time of Passover and sit in the seat prepared for him.)
So be prepared. The seals starting in Revelation 6 will point the way. Seal 1 is 9/11 with President Bush, then Obama, "rode (riding) out as a conqueror bent on conquest." Seal 2 is Islamic Jihad. Seal 3 is economic collapse or financial reset as I like to call it. Seal 4 is the consequences of this. Sword is war. Started with 9/11 now coming into full blown force; famine is as it says a lack of food leading to starvation and plague which is disease. If the money is worthless, the dustbin men, for instance, won't be working so disease will quickly spread. Seal 5 shows the martyrs in the land for peace treaty being signed. (Palestinians get the Old City.) Also shown in Daniel 9:27. The peace treaty between Israel and Palestine is a done deal at time of writing (July 2015). It just needs to be confirmed. Supposedly its between these two nations but the Pope is in the background pulling the strings. Why else would he have declared them a sovereign state recently? (Ezekiel 35:10 also says:) “‘Because you have said, “These two nations and countries will be ours and we will take possession of them,” even though I the LORD was there." The Scripture refers to Edom, now in its modern day force as Rome or the Vatican. The forty day's notice of 7X will be that many days before Passover. All this happens at Passover. Seal 6 is the first meteor strike. So ten virgins arrive for Passover. Some (5) are prepared knowing the feasts of the LORD.
We need to look now at a Jewish Wedding as it was anytime between Abraham and Jesus. This will pave the way to understand God's timing and how it fits in with the wise and foolish virgins. Its changed now just like the traditional Christian wedding has. Now, we assemble at synagogue or church say "I do" etc., etc. Back then it was in three parts. The first was for two sets of parents to arrange for their children to marry. The prospective groom would then talk with the bride's father agreeing a contract or Kettubah. Once it had been agreed it would be signed. That means they are married - end of part one. The groom now has to go away and prepare the place for his bride. She goes away also and prepares herself. He can take up to seven years but this he must do as the contract has been signed. That's the second part. (John 14:2-3. "My Father’s house has many rooms; if that 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 take you to be with Me that you also may be where I Am." Do you now understand the connection?) Last, when he is ready, his companions will come with him. Also, the bride's companions will wait with her. He will arrive. He and the bride will go into a specially prepared room and consummate the marriage! Then, when they have done this, he will bring out the bloodied "sheet of proof " and give it to the bride's parents who will give it to her for good keeping. Do you see it now? The contract has been decided between the father (our Heavenly Father) and the groom (Jesus). He (Jesus) will come for His Bride. Those who are prepared just like the bride would prepare will go into the marriage feast with Him - having said that, it will be slightly different for now as we go into the wilderness. The rest will go to Heaven. The less known about the Feasts of the LORD and His timing will determine how quickly anyone goes to Heaven. The Feasts of the LORD, therefore, also point the way.
The mechanisms now are so precise. (Hope I'll get the order right!) 7X comes into full blown effect. Its been coming steadily nearer all the time since the forty days notice. It will appear fifty times larger than the moon as it dips under the earth missing it by one hour! The earth, however, will tilt towards it due to the pull of gravity. Let's look at Amos 8:9 now: “In that day,” declares the Sovereign LORD, “I will make the sun go down at noon and darken the earth in broad daylight. Yes, there in Jerusalem, at Passover, the sun will go down at Midday! Just as in Joshua's day, 7X will stop the earth's rotation round the sun and there will be darkness for twenty four hours. Are you prepared? Do you have twenty four hours oil in reserve or will you have to go back to the lenders and not be there when... (I'll leave those details and how He will take the Bride away for that time for all who are there to see it for themselves. Until then it's a mystery.) So 144,000 Jewish male virgins as the priesthood, some other Jews who are prepared and Gentile believers will go into the wilderness to be protected fro 1,260 days or 42 months or three and a half years. Is this Petra? Is it Bozrah? (Many look at Micah 2:12-13 or Revelation 12:6 & 14 to name these places.) I've heard it might be there also. Whichever it is, we will be safe. A remnant will survive. Many believers who didn't pay attention to the LORD's feast days won't know what to do. They will be purified through the fire like gold to be made white. Amen. In the end, however, all make it to the wedding which comes at three and a half years. Is that the rapture? Three and a half days before it the Two Witnesses are killed in Jerusalem. If you're still alive after three and a half years of Great Tribulation (not seven, some will survive without the mark or worship the beast), hopefully you will recognise this sign. There's another three and a half years of bowl judgments (the second half of the Tribulation) or so I understand, but we will be in Heaven.
Its 1,335 days from the Peace Agreement to the rapture. That's the easy part. But 7X will reduce a year to 360 days after its first visit. Five months or more properly 150-152 days later the debris tail, including Wormwood, will reduce earth's rotation once round the sun by about half around 165 days. That's why it says: (Mark 13:32-33.) “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Be on guard! Be alert! You do not know when that time will come." Even so, look at the Feasts of the LORD again, one is on the first of the month (a new moon) so by that we will know the day. Also, in 2 Peter 2:6-9 it says: "if He condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly; and if He rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the depraved conduct of the lawless (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)— if this is so, then the LORD knows how to rescue the godly from trials and to hold the unrighteous for punishment on the day of judgment." Amen. Come LORD Jesus.
