Are you ready for Rapture 2025!

God declared the end from the beginning (Isaiah 46:9-10) and allotted seven days (7,000 years) to accomplish His plan for mankind. This timeframe is based on the seven-day week concept of time instituted by God in the creation week and the observance of the Sabbath. God created in six days and rested on the seventh day. We have seven literal days of repeating cycles - six days of work and one day of rest. The “one day as a thousand years” prophetic principle is key to unlocking and understanding this prophetic timeline. A literal day prophetically represents a 1,000-year period. The Dead Sea Scroll Essene calendar and the early Christian writings support this principle: Epistle of Barnabas 15:3-15 (100 A.D.), Irenaeus (150 A.D.), and Methodius (300 A.D.).

In answer to the scoffers mocking the promise of the second coming of Christ, Peter admonished believers to not be ignorant of the prophetic principle that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years (2 Peter 3:8). Peter likely learned this principle from Moses who wrote Psalm 90:3-4 that a thousand years in God’s sight are but as yesterday when it is past. Thus, the last days (the last two days or 2,000 years) started at the time of Jesus Christ who came at the end of the 4,000th year (4th day) from the sin event to be the Lamb of God. The coming of Jesus on the 4th day is depicted in the offering of the Passover lamb which is killed after keeping it for four (4) days as instituted in the Torah (Exodus 12:1-7).

Job 5:19 “He shall deliver thee in SIX troubles: yea, in SEVEN there shall no evil touch thee.” Six troubles represents the days of men on earth. Psalm 90:10 says that the best of men’s days are but trouble and sorrow. Men’s days of labor and sorrow are set at six troubles, six days, or 6,000 years. The seventh day represents God’s day of rest during which Jesus Christ will rule as King of kings and Lord of lords in His 1,000-year millennial kingdom on earth.

God has put a 6,000-year limit to the days of men. Genesis 6:3 “And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.” 120 years are jubilee years. 120 years multiplied by 50 is 6,000 years. The scriptures are replete with passages and typologies that teach the 7,000-year timeline from the year after the sin event until God completes his plan for mankind at the end of the millennial reign of Jesus Christ. After 7,000 years, the eight day will commence, the eternal state, when time will be no more in the new heaven and the new earth. The number eight signifies a new beginning, the beginning of eternity that will have no end.

The Lord Jesus Christ literally divided human history so we have the BC and AD. For God, the crucifixion of His Son is the most epic and monumental event on earth and in heaven. So, the key is to identify the year of the crucifixion to determine the plausible year of Jesus Christ’s second coming. The year of the crucifixion was revealed by the angel Gabriel to Daniel.

Daniel 9:25-27 NKJV
"Know therefore and understand, That from the going forth of the command To restore and build Jerusalem Until Messiah the Prince, There shall be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks; The street shall be built again, and the wall, Even in troublesome times. [26] "And after the sixty-two weeks Messiah shall be cut off, but not for Himself; And the people of the prince who is to come Shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end of it shall be with a flood, And till the end of the war desolations are determined. [27] Then he shall confirm a covenant with many for one week; But in the middle of the week He shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering. And on the wing of abominations shall be one who makes desolate, Even until the consummation, which is determined, Is poured out on the desolate."

The period of 70 weeks represent a period of 490 years, based on the biblical principle that prophetic Scripture often uses a day to represent a year (Ezekiel 4:4-6; Numbers 14:33-34). It is divided into three time periods: The first seven weeks (7x7 is 49 years) is a period associated with the rebuilding of Jerusalem after the exiles returned from Babylon. The sixty-two weeks (62x7 is 434 years) is a period that extends further leading up to the crucifixion of the Messiah. The final week (7 years) is the tribulation which is the last seven years of human history before the millennial kingdom of Jesus Christ. The 69 weeks have passed and the 70th week (last seven years of human history) will commence when Israel signs the covenant with the final Antichrist (Daniel 9:27).

The 70 weeks of Daniel were to begin “from the going forth of the command to restore and build Jerusalem” (Daniel 9:25). Artaxerxes promulgated the decree in his twentieth year of reign as recorded in Nehemiah 2:1-8. He ascended to the throne in December 465 BC (iranicaonline.org) and 20 years later on March 4th or 5th, 444 BC, was the decree issued (jewishroots.net and bibleref.com).

Therefore, from the decree of Artaxerxes to the crucifixion is exactly 483 years (49 + 434 is 483). If the last week or the final seven years follows the 360-day calendar year - first half of seven years (Revelation 11:2) and the second half (Revelation 13:5), then the 483 years should also be 360-day calendar years. We need to convert 483 years according to the present Gregorian calendar. 483 x 360 is 173,880 days. 173,880 days divided by 365.25 is 476 years and 25 days. We can now know when exactly is the crucifixion year. When we add 476 years to -444 BC, it brings us to 32 A.D.

The 32 AD crucifixion calculation was done by many Bible scholars across centuries. One of the notable work was by Sir Robert Anderson, chief of the Scotland Yard in the 18th century, an English lawyer, and a serious student of the book of Daniel. His study took into consideration the lunar cycles often neglected by Biblical scholars and investigators who concentrated on translating the Hebrew date into our Roman solar calendar.

A more contemporary scholar, Luis B. Vega, compiled a decade-worth of research into ascertaining 32 AD crucifixion using a triangulation approach of astronomical, archeological and historical data to hold this supposition.

From Adam to Abraham is 2,000 years. From Abraham to Jesus Christ is 2,000 years. From Jesus Christ to the end of human history is 2,000 years. Thus, we are almost at the very end of the last days. From the crucifixion of Jesus after being rejected by the Jews, to His Second Coming, when the Jews will finally acknowledge their Messiah, will be a period of TWO DAYS or 2,000 years. The seventh day will be the 1,000-year millennial reign of Jesus Christ.

Hosea 5:15 NKJV (the Messiah Jesus Christ speaking) “I will return again to My place Till they acknowledge their offense. Then they will seek My face; In their affliction they will earnestly seek Me." The Lord Jesus Christ died, rose from the dead, and ascended to heaven in 32 AD.

The Jews have been afflicted and persecuted throughout history and their affliction will culminate in the final week of Daniel’s prophecy, the time of Jacob’s trouble, the last seven years of human history, a.k.a. the seven-year tribulation. During that time period, the remnant of the Jews will be refined by fire (Zechariah 13:8-9) and at the end of the seven-year tribulation, the Lord Jesus Christ will come back with the Church (Revelation 19:11-16). The Jews will see whom they have pierced. They will repent and will finally acknowledge Jesus Christ as their Messiah and King (Zechariah 12:10) and all Israel will be saved (Romans 11:26).

Hosea 6:1-2 NKJV (the Jewish remnant speaking) “Come, and let us return to the LORD; For He has torn, but He will heal us; He has stricken, but He will bind us up. [2] After two days He will revive us; On the third day He will raise us up, That we may live in His sight.” Two days or 2,000 after Jesus died and ascended to heaven, He will come back to revive the Jewish nation and on the third day (the seventh day, God’s Sabbath, God’s rest, the 1,000-year millennial kingdom, Jesus will literally live in the sight of the Jews ruling over all the world on the throne of David in Jerusalem.

What then is the prophetic implication of this? The Lord Jesus Christ died and rose from the dead in 32 AD and went back to heaven. Hosea prophesied that Jesus will be back after two days or 2,000 years. 32 AD plus 2,000 years brings us to 2032 as the plausible year of Jesus Christ’s second coming. 2032 subtracted by 7 years (the final week of Daniel’s prophecy), and we are looking at 2025 as the Rapture year! The Rapture is the fulfillment of Jesus Christ’s promise to come back for Christian believers and all minor children (John 14:1-6, 1 Corinthians 15:50-54, 1 Thessalonians 4:15-17). We can now cross out 30AD and 31AD as the crucifixion year. 33AD and 34AD do not fit the bill. We can count the last two days prophesied by Hosea from 32AD. The probability of this assertion to be wrong is very slim. This is not to set the date but to watch as commanded by God, for the soon coming redemption. Mark 13:37 KJV “And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.”

Do not be left behind to experience the undiluted wrath of God that will be poured onto this evil and Christ-rejecting world during the final seven years of human history. Repent and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord God and savior and be saved.

Are you ready for Rapture 2025?

The Number 84 points to the Rapture in 2025!

The number 84 is a very significant number because it provides us with prophetic insights about when the Rapture and the second coming of Jesus Christ will likely take place. God reveals prophetic patterns and time duration prophecies not only using the plain text but also numerically and pictographically; and it is only possible using the Hebrew language. This knowledge has remained a mystery for a long time until now when the Holy Spirit is revealing truths to those that pursue the knowledge of the Lord especially His physical manifestation or revelation at His second coming (Hosea 6:3). The prophetic word is becoming clearer as we get closer to the end.

Hosea 12:10 “I have also spoken by the prophets, and I have multiplied visions, and used similitudes, by the ministry of the prophets.” God spoke through the prophets of old to provide us insights about similitudes or patterns of the things to come. Traditional Jewish hermeneutics view prophecies as patterns or typologies that serve as dress rehearsals or dry runs for the real thing.

One important typology is Jacob whose name was changed to Israel, the patriarch of the Jewish nation. Jacob is a type of Christ. His marriage to Leah (a type of the Church) and Rachel (a type of Israel) separated by a week or seven days, typifies the Lord Jesus Christ marrying the Church and Israel. The Lord Jesus Christ will first marry His gentile bride - the Church at the pre-Tribulation Rapture, and a week later (the 70th week of Daniel a.k.a. the seven-year tribulation or Jacob’s trouble), He will marry Israel at His second coming when the remnant of the Jewish nation will finally acknowledge their Messiah (Zechariah 12:10).

If prophecy is a pattern, then it is necessary to determine the age of Jacob when he married Leah and Rachel. Jacob was 130 years old when he first stood before Pharaoh (Genesis 47:8-9). Joseph was 30 years old when he was brought before Pharaoh (Genesis 41:46). Jacob came to Egypt when Joseph was 39 years old - 30 plus 7 years of plenty plus 2 years of famine (Genesis 45:11). Thus, 130 subtracted by 39 is 91. Jacob was 91 years old when his son Joseph was born. It was during this time when Jacob demanded Laban, his father-in-law to send him away so he can return home to his own people, after serving him for 14 years for his two wives. Jacob had to work for Laban seven years before he could marry Rachel. But Laban tricked Jacob to marrying Leah so he had to serve another seven years for Rachel. So we can just subtract 7 years from 91 which is 84 - the age of Jacob when he married Leah and Rachel (Genesis 29:20-30). You will soon find out how prophetically significant the number 84 is and how it can point to the possible year Jesus will marry the Church and Israel. Blindness in part has happened to Israel so God can extend salvation to the gentiles that He may have mercy on all (Romans 11:25 & 32). The Jews and the gentile church will both be Abraham’s seed, heirs according to the promise, and one in Christ Jesus (Galatians 3:28-29).

The super sign of the end times is the rebirth of the modern nation of Israel in fulfillment of the prophecy of Isaiah. Isaiah 66:8 NKJV
“Who has heard such a thing? Who has seen such things? Shall the earth be made to give birth in one day? Or shall a nation be born at once? For as soon as Zion was in labor, She gave birth to her children.” The modern state of Israel (Jacob) was born in one day on May 14, 1948. Israel will be 84 in 2032 which is the possible year of the second coming when Jesus comes back to be Israel’s Messiah. Since the marriage of the Church and Israel to Jesus is separated by seven years, we simply deduct 7 years (seven-year tribulation) from 2032 and we arrive at 2025 as the year of the pre-Tribulation Rapture when Jesus Christ will marry the Church.

The number 84 also appears prominent in other similitudes and typologies. Anna, a prophetess at the temple, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher, who was waiting for the coming Redeemer, was 84 years old when she saw and spoke of the child Jesus Christ as the One who will bring salvation and redemption in Jerusalem (Luke 2:36-38). Ana means “God has favored me” or “grace”; Phanuel means “face of God”; and Asher means “happy”. We can conjecture from her name, father’s name, and the name of her tribe that Anna was favored and happy to see the face of God. Similarly, Israel and the Church who have found favor and grace will be happy to behold the face of God when they will be reunited with their Bridegroom Redeemer.

Another typology is the seven baskets and twelve baskets left over from Christ’s feeding of the 4,000 and the 5,000 (Mark 8:17-21). Christ expects his apostles to understand and make a conclusion about the numbers 7 and 12. The number 7 means divine completion or perfection and the number 12 means governmental perfection. 7 multiplied by 12 is 84 - the number of years from the rebirth of Israel in 1948 to 2032, the possible year when human history and rule will have been completed and the perfect government of God’s kingdom will commence with Jesus Christ on the throne ruling in righteousness in Zion as King of kings and Lord of lords (Revelation 19:16).

The 12 loaves of bread (Leviticus 24:5-8) and the seven-branched golden lampstands (Exodus 25:37) in the tabernacle are again a similitude or typology of Israel (12) and the Church (7). 12 multiplied by 7 is 84.

Luke Chapter 2 mentions Jesus being twelve years old when He went to Jerusalem for the Festival of the Passover. Also mentioned in the same chapter was Anna, the prophetess who was with her husband for seven years. 12 times 7 is 84.

The raising of Jairus’ 12-year old daughter from the dead is another similitude of the numbers twelve times seven is 84 (Luke 8:40-56). When Jesus arrived at the house of Jairus, he did not let anyone go in with him except Peter, John and James, and the child’s father and mother. Jesus was purposely in his actions. He controlled the number of people in the room so that there were only seven people including Himself and the 12-year old girl. Again, 12 multiplied by 7 is 84. In consonance with the typology, Jesus will resurrect the tribulation saints in the same way he raised Jairus’ daughter from the dead when He comes back. The tribulation saints will be resurrected so that they can live and rule with Christ in His millennial kingdom possibly commencing in 2032.

Aaron was 83 years old when he stood before Pharoah (Exodus 7:7). It was a year later, when Aaron was 84, that the Israelites kept their first Passover outside of Egypt while they sojourned in the wilderness of Sinai (Numbers 9:1 - 5). Aaron was also anointed as the High Priest when he was 84 years old. In accord with the typology, Israel will be 84 in 2032, the possible year of the second coming when Jesus will be anointed as King over all the earth.

While we are at it, let’s stretch it a bit and read about Psalm 84 whose verbiage suggests the millennial kingdom of Jesus Christ. This psalm describes, the court, the temple, the altar, the house, and the throne of God in Zion. When Jacob turns 84 in 2032, Israel’s Messiah - the Lord Jesus Christ will sit on David’s throne in Zion and reign in righteousness for 1,000 years.

To further prop up the number 84 prophecy, the Hebrew word yehoshaphat (Strong's ) is recorded 84 times in 75 Hebrew Old Testament verses. The meaning of Yehoshaphat is “YHWH has judged or governs.” When Israel turns 84 in 2032, the Lord Jesus Christ will judge the nations (Matthew 25:31-46) and will govern the whole world (Revelation 11:15 & Isaiah 9:6).

The marriage of Isaac to Rebekah is another similitude to Christ’s marriage to the Church. Abraham is a type of God the Father. His son Isaac is a type of Jesus Christ. Abraham’s chief servant Eliezer is a type of the Holy Spirit. Isaac’s bride Rebekah is a type of the Church. Since prophecy is a pattern or similitude, the past mirrors the future. If the Rapture will occur this 2025, then there must be a relevant event in 2025 B.C. that mirrors the present year. It was in 2025 B.C. that Isaac married his bride Rebekah. Therefore, in accordance with the typology, Jesus Christ will likely sn**ch away His bride, the Church in 2025!

Since we have already dove deep into the subject of a possible Rapture in 2025, let’s go all out and consider other typologies to point to a 2025 Rapture. 1 Corinthians 15:21-22 NIV
“For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man. [22] For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive.” The Hebrew Gematria value of Adam (אדם) is 45. The first Adam (45) multiplied by the second Adam (45) is 2025. This is the possible year when the dead in Christ will rise and born again Christians that are alive will be changed and put on immortality that will bring to pass the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in victory.” (1 Corinthians 15:51-55).

Finally, Enoch and Elijah were the two men who never experienced death because they were literally taken to heaven (Genesis 5:24 & 2 Kings 2:11). In Simple English alphabet Gematria, the value of “Enoch” is 45 and “Elijah” is 45. The two men who had experienced being raptured are the typology of Christians who will be taken up at the Rapture. If you multiply the value of their names, it is 2025!

God loves his numbers. These numbers tell a lot about the knowledge of God and his plans. If 2025 comes and goes, it does not change the fact that the Lord Jesus Christ is coming soon. Based on the above typologies, the pre-Tribulation Rapture will likely happen this year. Do not be left behind. Repent and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and personal savior and be saved today!

Maranatha!

UFO PsyOp

UFO (Unidentified Flying Objects) sightings across the world have created social media buzz lately. Even the US Congress jumped on the bandwagon by conducting investigations to look into the national security threat that these Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) are posing.

Aliens or UFOs are being pitched by the Satanic realm to provide an explanation for the soon coming Rapture of all born again Christians and all minor children. Satan and his minions know that the Rapture can happen anytime soon and they are preparing the false narrative to explain away the disappearance of millions of people and minor children around the world.

The declassified video evidence from the US military, footage from amateur cameras, video clips taken from passenger planes, fighter planes, and from smartphones suggest that these UFOs or UAPs that defy the laws of physics are beings existing beyond the space and time dimensions that do not belong to the physical realm. These are demonic entities which explains why they can travel at an impossible speed and can make a 90 degree turn easily. They purposely flash blinking or flickering colorful lights from the sky and often appear and disappear at will.

The purpose of these demonic entities that pose as UFOs or aliens is to explain away the soon coming Rapture. These Satanic minions including the media, false religious groups, governments, the occult, and followers of the new age movement will put up the false narrative that the disappearance of all Christians and minor children around the world was an alien mass abduction. This is a demonic PsyOp with the aim of evoking a planned or programmed psychological reaction in the people that will be left behind. The people left behind will be consoled with the idea and will be made to believe the lie that they were lucky not to be taken by the aliens because they have the unique and wonderful privilege to start over in the Aquarian Age of Enlightenment.

If you happen to be left behind, do not fall into this deceptive lie. The disappearance of millions was not an alien mass abduction. It is the Rapture which is the fulfillment of the promise of Jesus Christ to those who repented of their sins and believe in Him as God and Savior.

John 14:1-6 NKJV
"Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. [2] In My Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. [3] And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. [4] And where I go you know, and the way you know." [5] Thomas said to Him, "Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?" [6] Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.”

1 Corinthians 15:50-54 KJV
Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. [51] Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, [52] In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. [53] For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. [54] So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.

1 Thessalonians 4:15-17 KJV
For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. [16] For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: [17] Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

Matthew 24:40-42 KJV
Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. [41] Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. [42] Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

After the rapture, the world will immediately be ushered into the seven-year tribulation (Matthew 24:21). The Holy Spirit who restrains evil in the world will step aside and the final Antichrist, the final world tyrant will rule for seven years during the tribulation. God will send a spirit of deception to those left behind because they have embraced unrighteousness (2 Thessalonians 2:6-12). You have read this so do not believe the lie. You have been left behind at the Rapture event because you had not repented of your sins and accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and savior.

You still have a chance to be saved and enter God’s kingdom. Repent and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior. During this dispensation, your faith in Christ will be tested. By your works (James 2:26). Do not take the 666 mark of the Antichrist (Revelation 13). You will have to endure hunger, thirst, and even death because of your faith in Christ (Revelation 7:13-17). You will have to help Jesus’ brethren the Jews who will be annihilated by the Antichrist. If you make it to the end of the seven-year tribulation, the judgment of nations and people will be based on how you treated the least of Jesus’ brethren the Jews (Matthew 25:31-46 & Joel 3:2).

More than four billion people will perish during the seven-year tribulation because of God’s horrific and terrible judgments that will be poured into this evil, unbelieving and Christ-rejecting world (Revelation 6-19).

Isaiah 24:1,6 NKJV
Behold, the LORD makes the earth empty and makes it waste, Distorts its surface And scatters abroad its inhabitants. [6] Therefore the curse has devoured the earth, And those who dwell in it are desolate. Therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, And few men are left.

You do not want to be left behind. Escape the wrath to come. Repent of your sins and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord God and savior today and be saved.

Maranatha!

The PROPHETIC SIGNIFICANCE of TRUMP’S landslide victory

The red wave that didn’t come in the last election cycle came through in 2024. A Trump presidency means Israel will get the full backing of America. Israel’s enemies are wetting their pants right now. With the full support of America, Israel will soon wrap up her wars on seven fronts and will create a buffer zone around her borders. Israel will finally, although only temporarily, live in peace and prosperity in unwalled cities and villages.

President Trump will carry on to expand the Abraham accord to include Saudi Arabia. A normalization agreement between Israel and the Saudis will trigger the rest of the Sunni nations to follow suit. Iran will lick her wounds and will join the coalition of nations led by Russia including Turkey, Sudan, Libya and many other antisemitic countries to invade Israel for a spoil (Ezekiel 38-39). The invading armies led by Russia will come like a storm from the north and will cover Israel like a cloud. Israel will be all alone with no help from America or NATO. America will become inconsequential because of the Rapture when milllions of born again Christians including minor children will be sn**ched away by Jesus Christ to take them to His Father’s house (John 14:1-6, 1 Corinthians 15:50-52, and 1 Thessalonians 4: 16-18). If Trump has become a born again believer in Jesus Christ by hanging out with evangelical pastors and evangelist Franklin Graham Jr., who likely shared to him the gospel - repentance and faith in Jesus Christ who died for our sins and resurrected from the dead, he will also be raptured. Many important positions in the military and government will be vacated because of the rapture event and this will make America unable to help Israel. Saudi Arabia and the gulf states (Sheba and Dedan), the merchants of Tarshish (the UK), and the young lions of Tarshish (USA) will only protest the invasion but will not help Israel in any way. It will be God Himself who will supernaturally defend Israel. Russia and her allies will be destroyed on the mountains of Israel with only one sixth left to lick their wounds. God will sanctify his name before the eyes of the world.

The New World Order of the West will fill in the power vacuum and will usher in the one world government that will be ruled by the final Anti-Christ (Daniel 7:23). The beast of the final Antichrist is the rider on the white horse (Revelation 6:2) He will broker a peace deal with Israel that will strengthen the Abraham accord mediated by Trump (Daniel 9:27). The signing of this agreement will mark the commencement of the seven-year tribulation, the 70th week of Daniel a.k.a. the time of Jacob’s trouble. At the midpoint of the seven years, the world tyrant the AntiChrist will break the covenant with Israel (Daniel 12:11 & Matthew 24:15-22). He will annihilate two-thirds of the Jewish population (Zechariah 13:7-9). The remnant of the Jews will be protected and nourished in the wilderness for three and a half years (Revelation 12:14).

The Lord Jesus Christ will come back with the raptured Christians seven years prior to battle the armies of the world at Armageddon (Revelation 16:12-16,Revelation 19 and Zechariah 14). The remnant of the Jews will finally repent and acknowledge their Messiah (Zechariah 12:10-14).

The King of kings and Lord of lords Jesus Christ will reign in righteousness in Zion over all the earth for 1,000 years (Revelation 20). When you pray the Lord’s Prayer and when you pray for the peace in Jerusalem, you are praying for the Prince of Peace to come back and reign on earth.

The timing of the Rapture (Summer 2025?) unveiled in the book of Ruth
by: Henry

“I have also spoken by the prophets, and I have multiplied visions, and used similitudes, by the ministry of the prophets.” Hosea 12:10

God spoke through the prophets of old to provide us insights about similitudes or patterns of the things to come. Traditional Jewish hermeneutics view prophecies as a pattern and not simply predictions and their fulfillment.

The love story of Boaz and Ruth recorded in the book of Ruth by the prophet Samuel is a similitude or typology of the Lord Jesus Christ and the Church. It is not only historical but also symbolic. Boaz is a type of Christ while Ruth personifies the Church. The book of Ruth exemplifies God’s redemptive plan for the Church. Boaz acting as a kinsman-redeemer for Ruth the Moabite typifies the Lord God Jesus Christ who took on flesh to be a kinsman of men to redeem us from our sins. Boaz’ marriage to his gentile bride Ruth depicts Jesus’ marriage to the gentile Church at the imminent rapture event. Ruth’s mother-in-law Naomi represents Israel. The critical points in Naomi’s life portrays the chronological events about the dispersion, restoration, and the national salvation of the Jews. The book of Ruth is significant historically and extremely profound prophetically as regards the Church and the nation of Israel.

The book of Ruth is always read at the Feast of Weeks or the Feast of Pentecost (Shavuot) which we now know is anticipatory to the birth of the Church (Acts 2). The link of Ruth to the Church is simply fascinating. Understanding the book of Ruth is an essential pre-requisite to the correct interpretation of Revelation chapter five when Jesus Christ takes the title deed of the universe from the hand of God before the raptured Church and the multitudes of heavenly host.

Similar to the Church, Ruth was a widow, destitute, and without hope until she met her kinsman redeemer who saved her and given her provision, protection, heritage, hope and a blissful future. Boaz also restored her family’s possession through the Law of Redemption (Leviticus 25:47-55) and the Law of Levirate Marriage (Deuteronomy 25:5-10) legislated in the Torah. It is noteworthy to mention that the claims of Jesus Christ are contingent on these laws.

It seems unusual for a Jew like Boaz to marry a Moabitess because gentile marriage especially with Amorites and Moabites is prohibited in the Torah (Deuteronomy 23:3 and 7:2-3). However, what the law could not do, grace did. Boaz showed compassion, grace and love for Ruth notwithstanding who she was. He didn’t care about her lineage or ethnicity not only because he truly loved her but also because his mother Rahab, the Amorite from Jericho (Matthew 1:5), was also a gentile. Boaz by his love, grace and mercy would take on the role of a “Goel” or kinsman redeemer. His act of redemption involved taking a gentile bride and redeeming the land for Naomi. He foreshadows what Jesus Christ will do for the Church and Israel. Jesus Christ the Son of God will catch away His bride, the Church at the rapture event (1 Corinthians 15:51-52, & 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17). He will bring her back to the Father’s house (John 14:1-3) where they will consummate their marriage and enjoy a feast lasting up to seven days true to Jewish marriage tradition. Prophetically, the period of seven days is actually seven years which will happen simultaneous to the seven-year tribulation on earth. The Lord Jesus Christ will then come back on earth with His bride and reign with her for a thousand years (Revelation 20:4). By virtue of marriage, the Church was made an heir of God and joint-heirs with Christ (Romans 8:16-17). She will enjoy all the inheritance given to the Son by the Father (Colossians 1:12).

Naomi, Ruth’s mother-in-law wanted to be called Mara (Ruth 1:20-21) because the Lord had bitterly dealt with her (the diaspora or Jewish dispersal from the land). But when she met their kinsman-redeemer Boaz, her punishment ended; her lost property was restored; and her future and heritage was secured. Naomi went down in history as the great grandmother of King David and the Messiah Jesus Christ. Naomi is a similitude of Israel being the woman in Revelation 12 who brought forth the Child (Jesus Christ) who was to rule all nations with the rod of iron. Our God and Redeemer Jesus Christ will come back at His Second Coming to fight the nations that will gather against Jerusalem (Zechariah 14:2-5) and to deliver the Jews from utter annihilation at Armageddon. The Jewish Messiah will bring to an end the Jews’ punishment (Ezekiel 4:1-6), forgive His people (Romans 11:25-27), grant national salvation to the Jewish remnant (Romans 9:26-27), restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem (Joel 3:1-2), restore Israel’s original borders (Joshua 1:4 & Ezekiel 48:28-29), and make Israel the head of the nations (Jeremiah 31 & Zechariah 8:22-23).

Churches like the Lutherans, Presbyterians, Anglicans, Methodists, and most Reformed and Calvinistic denominations will not be able to fully capture the core message of the book of Ruth and its prophetic significance because they have no grasp about the distinction between the Church and Israel. Many of them believe in Replacement theology which teaches that God has rescinded all His promises to Israel and has bestowed these promises on the Church.

God has separate promises and plans for Israel. Must the Christians be reminded that Jesus is the Jewish Messiah and the King of the Jews who will reign in the Jewish state of Israel in Zion during his millennial kingdom here on earth? The gentile Church was just grafted in the olive tree which is the symbol for the religious privileges of Israel, to share in the Jews’ spiritual blessings (Romans 11). The gentile Church are aliens in the commonwealth of Israel but were included by the blood of Christ. Ephesians 2:12-13 NKJV “… that at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.”

Bethlehem is in Israel where Jesus the Bread of Life was born. Beth-lehem is two words and means “house” (Beth as in Beth-el, “house of God”) and “bread” (lehem). We can conjecture that the stable where Jesus was born was probably in the land of His great grandparents, Boaz and Ruth. There is really no randomness in God. He has declared the end from the beginning; His counsel will stand; and, He will do all his pleasure (Isaiah 46:9-10).

Jacob a.k.a Israel at his death bed, summoned his sons, and told each one that which shall befall them in the last days. Genesis 49:10 records Israel’s prophetic words to Judah that the royal lineage or kingship will come from him. “The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be.” Jesus was the son of David from the tribe of Judah. He has a royal lineage (Jeremiah 23:5-6). King Jesus will sit on the throne of his father David (Luke 1:32-33 & Isaiah 9:6-7) and reign on Zion over all the earth (Isaiah 24:23, 2:1-4).

The Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Messiah Jesus Christ descended from Judah through Perez, a bastard who was born out of the immoral union between Judah and his daughter-in-law Tamar (Matthew 1:3, Revelation 5:5, & Genesis 38). The Torah strictly excludes bastards from the congregation or assembly until the tenth generation. Deuteronomy 23:2 KJVS - “A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of the LORD.” King David is the tenth generation from Perez and his lineage was prophesied in the book of Ruth (Ruth 4:12, 18-22). This prohibition no longer applies to King David being the tenth generation from Perez.

The genealogy of Boaz, Ruth, Obed, Jesse, and David was even encrypted in Genesis 38, the chapter that details the lineage of Judah. Equidistant Letter Sequence cryptology was used by ancient Hebrew sages who made and broke codes by skipping of the letters in equal distances. In Genesis 38, in every 49th letter intervals, the name of Boaz appears followed by the name of Ruth, then Obed, then Yishay (Jesse), and lastly David all in chronological order. For these names to be encoded in the first book of the Bible specifically the chapter that describes the kingly lineage of Jesus Christ is incredible and provocative statistically. We can strongly believe that there is no such thing as coincidence or randomness in God.

Given the numerous similitudes and prophetic undertones in the book of Ruth, there is reason to believe that we can possibly determine using these similitudes to approximate the timing of the RAPTURE of the CHURCH. Naomi after being exiled from her land came back to Israel which gave her daughter-in-law Ruth the chance to meet their kinsman-redeemer Boaz, and eventually marry him. So this means that the rapture cannot happen unless the Jews are back in their ancestral homeland. This is the super sign of the last days. Since the rapture is when the Bridegroom Jesus Christ will fetch His Bride, the Church in the clouds, the season when Boaz married Ruth is likely the timing of the imminent rapture of the Church.

The question now is - “When did Boaz marry Ruth?” It was during Shavuot or the Feast of Weeks. This is the reason why the book of Ruth is read in all synagogues around the world during this particular Jewish feast. Another reason to believe that the rapture event will happen on the Feast of Weeks is because the seven major Jewish feasts are the shadow of things to come (Colossians 2:16-17). The three Spring Feasts was all fulfilled to the day by Jesus Christ at his first advent. The three Fall Feasts will all be fulfilled to the day by Jesus Christ at his second coming. Then smack in the middle around the summer time is the Feast of Weeks or Shavuot and the same will be fulfilled at the rapture of the Church when Jesus Christ will meet his Bride in the clouds.

I had hoped that the Rapture would occur at the Feast of Weeks in 2024. So, if it is not in 2024 then it must be in the summer of 2025. The chance of this assumption being wrong is getting slimmer and slimmer. Hosea 6:2 NKJV “After two days He will revive us; On the third day He will raise us up, That we may live in His sight.” God said that he will come back and live in the presence of the Jews after two days or 2,000 years (a day for God is 1,000 years - 2 Peter 3:8). Jesus died in 30AD or 31AD and 2,000 years after that is 2032. 2032 less seven years tribulation is 2025!

This assumption is very plausible biblically speaking and definitely not far-fetched. God has outlined a framework and created a pattern from which everything flows historically and prophetically. The pattern for the first advent of Christ, the second coming of Christ, and the rapture is revealed through the Hebraic calendar punctuated with feasts and holy days. The Feast of Weeks is during the grain harvest for the bread offering baked with leaven. The gospel speak of the grain harvest as a metaphor to the reaping of the saints (Matthew 9:37-38 & John 4:35). The peculiarities and characteristics of the Feast of Weeks pertain to the Church and not to the Jews because of the use of leaven for making the bread offering, which suggests non-Jewish nature or gentile attributes. The word “bread” in Strong’s Greek means to lift, raise, or take up. The meanings for bread definitely suggest rapture.

Of course the rapture is imminent and it can happen anytime soon. Your eternal destiny is not a gamble or taking a chance because it is certain either way. If you have not repented of your sins and have accepted the Son of God Jesus Christ as your Lord God and personal savior, you are 100% on your way to eternal damnation in the lake of fire. If you are saved through repentance and faith in Christ alone without works, you are 100% heaven-bound and should be anticipating to meet your Redeemer in the clouds anytime soon.

John 3:18,36 NKJV
"He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. [36] He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him."

In the same manner as Ruth, have you staked your claim with our kinsman-redeemer who took on flesh to redeem us from our sins (Hebrew 2:14 & Ephesians 1:7). No matter how much Boaz loved Ruth, it was her move to respond to his mercy, love, and grace. She lied down at her master’s feet taking the lowly position of a servant. It represented Ruth as a petitioner. Get down on your knees and ask Jesus to forgive and to save you now.

Jesus is knocking at your heart’s door. Why don’t you open your heart to Christ. Our next breath is not guaranteed. Maybe today is God’s final call to you. Revelation 3:20 Jesus said, “Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.”

Maranatha!
