End-Time Signs (Of Tribulation & Rapture)
Certainly there have been terrible tragedies, devastations, calamities, etc. that have plagued this world. However, Math.24:21 tells us that the 7 year Tribulation "will be a time of great distress unequaled from the beginning of the world - - and it will never be equaled again". This period is also referred to throughout the Bible as "the Day of the Lord". We are told that there will be many "signs" that will precede that day. We are also told that it will come like a thief in the night. In Math.24:42 & 25:13, Mark 13:35-37, and Luke 21:36 Jesus instructs us to "Watch therefore, for you do not know what day or hour your Lord is coming. I say to everyone, watch". And in 1stThes.5:6 Paul warns us to "stay alert". In Math.16:3 Jesus reprimands the Pharisees, "O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky (coming weather), but can ye not discern the signs of the times?" In this particular instance, Jesus was referring to Old Testament prophesies that predicted his 1st coming, even to the day, which they should have recognized.
Before the Tribulation (Day of the Lord), most Christian Teachers, Bible Scholars, etc. believe that God will deliver his children, born-again believers, the Bride of his Son, via the "Rapture". There is general agreement that we are in a time of church history that the expectation of the return of Jesus Christ, "The Blessed Hope", is at a fever pitch! Too many things are converging! And too many things are happening! We shouldn't be surprised in the least when the tribulation &/or the rapture is upon us. Just too many signs:
#1) Most Bible Scholars adhere to a prophetic world clock or timeline based on the Genesis 1, 7 day, creation narrative and that "a day is = 1000 yrs", (2Pet.3:8). Thus:
Days 1&2 = The world before God called out Abraham & a chosen people for Himself, the Jews.
Days 3&4 = The Old Testament time of the Jews until Jesus and God's turning to the gentiles.
Days 5&6 = The New Testament time of the gentiles & the dispensation of God's Grace.
Day 7 = The 1000 yr. Millennium.
The 2000 yr. time period for the gentiles is about up. Assuming Jesus was likely born about 3BC, at age 33 he died in the year 30AD. Thus the Millennium could possibly start about 2030 and the Tribulation 7yrs. earlier or 2023. The Rapture & probably the Psalm 83 or Ezek.38&39 war would then likely happen between now & 2023. This of course is hypothetical conjecture, but it certainly bears serious thought.
#2) The scripture is replete with examples of God's 7000 yr. timeline:
a) In Matt.17:1-9 Jesus, at his transfiguration, is seen coming in his glorified Kingdom body with Moses & Elijah. The fact that this took place "after 6 days" is a picture of the 6000 year timeline. Moreover, this might also be seen as a foreshadow of when Jesus gathers his disciples together at the Rapture.
b) Abraham's son, Isaac, is an amazing portrayal of the life of Jesus. Moreover, Isaac's marriage at age 40 (Gen.25:20), could correspond to Jesus' coming to earth at the end of 4000 years for His bride. Likewise, the birth of Isaac's children when he was 60, could parallel the salvation of His people, Israel, at the end of 6000 years.
c) In 2 Kings chapter 11 we have the coronation of Joash as the rightful King at the end of 6 yrs. This could correspond to Jesus' coronation at the end of 6000 years. Also, as Joash is a picture of Jesus, Althaliah, who rules the same 6 years, could be a picture of Satan & his present rule.
d) Noah was 600 years old at the time of the flood. This could easily be seen as alluding to a 6000 year time period when God will bring another great judgment on the whole earth.
e) Using similar reasoning, following is a prophetic extrapolation of the Death of Lazarus: John 11:6 - "When Jesus learns that Lazarus (Israel), whom He loves, is sick (spiritually dead), He stayed 2 days (2000 yrs.) in the place where he was (heaven)". 11:8 - The disciples said to Him, "Rabbi, a while ago the Jews tried to stone you (& crucified him) and you are going back there?" 11:11 - Jesus says, "Our friend Lazarus (Israel) has fallen asleep (is spiritually dead); but I am going there to wake him up". 11:17 - "When Jesus came, Lazarus (Israel) had been in the grave (spiritually dead) for 4 days (4000 yrs.- From Abraham until Jesus returns from heaven)"
With Jesus' return, (which may be 2023), Israel's eyes will finally be opened. Rom.11:25 - "Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles have come in, (& likely have been raptured). And so all Israel will be saved". (But through Tribulation).
Moreover, this was the 7th Sign/Miracle in the Book of John, thus signifying "Completion". The 8th & final Sign/Miracle, John 21:11, occurred after Jesus' resurrection, and thus signifies "New Beginnings". It chronicles the miraculous catch of 153 fish, which represents the salvation of all God's Children, (see "Salvation/Resurrection #").
f) In very similar language the prophet Hosea also speaks of the Lord’s return at the end of two days. Hosea 5:15-6:2, “I will go and return to my place (heaven), till they (the Jews) will acknowledge their offence, and seek my face; in their affliction they will seek me early. Come, let us return unto the Lord, for he has torn, and he will heal us. He hath smitten, and he will bind us up. After 2 days will he revive us; in the 3rd day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight.” The “3rd day” would correspond to the 1000 year Millennium. Again, if Jesus was born about 3BC & he died at age 33 or 30AD, 2000 years would place the start of the 7 year Tribulation at about 2023 and the Millennium 2030.
#3) At the very start of this ministry, the 1st thing God had to do was convince me that we are really at the very end of end-times. One major aspect of this process involved a 2 second interval between two numbers. It took me eons to realize the underlying significance of the 2 seconds representing 2000 years, but it ultimately made sense. The two #s were 7 & 8. The #7 represents "Completion", such as at the cross, and the #8 represents "New Beginnings", like 2000 years later via the Rapture, Tribulation, or Millennium. Of course, I wasn't using a stop-watch, so it was a bit vague.
#4) Too many things are coming together that indicate that we are the generation that Jesus refers to in Math. 24:32-34, Mark 13:28-30, & Luke 21:29-32; "Learn this lesson from the fig tree, "when it sprouts leaves" - - this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened". In these verses it is generally acknowledged that Jesus is specifically referring to the last Jewish generation, the "fig tree generation". The fig tree is a symbol of National Israel; Israel was recognized as a nation in 1948. (Often a tree is not recognized until after it "buds"). It was "planted" or "rooted" way back when God actually established Israel and gave the land to Abraham & the generations of Jews after him. Now the question is, how many years is a generation? Psalm 90:10 says, "The length of our days is 70 years, 80 if we have strength". Seventy years would be very close to the average life expectancy of the Jewish population in 1948. Today it is more like 80 years. This would place the end of Tribulation between 2018 & 2028. Well it certainly has not happened to date! Then again, people do live to be over 100! Maybe that's more in line with what Jesus meant. 100 years would place the start of Tribulation at 2041! And of course it could be anywhere in between.
Note: This may also tie in with the St. Malachy prophecy concerning the last Pope. See 'Links'.
#5) The Ancient Book of Enoch (Noah's great-grandfather) is acknowledged and proven by Jude 1:14-15, to be a genuine & true book of prophecy. The book specifically emphasizes that it is a special message from God to bless born-again believers who will be living in the generation just prior to the tribulation. It emphatically professes that the tribulation will start between 1975 & 2075. He also emphasizes that His children are not to fear and will escape God's wrath. This agrees with 1st Thessalonians 1:10, 4:16-18, & 5:9.
#6) Per an article by J. R. Church in 'Prophecy in the News': Joshua was a type of Christ. Like Jesus, he & Caleb, two of the 12 spies that were sent to check out the Promised Land after Moses lead the Jews out of Egypt, said to the Jewish nation, "the Promised Land is at hand, let's go". But, the Jews said "No". So they wondered in the wilderness for 40 years. - Likewise, Jesus said the same thing before his crucifixion, "the kingdom of heaven is at hand, let's go". But again, the Jews said "No". So they've now basically wondered the wilderness for about 2000 years or 40 Jubilees!! (A biblical "Jubilee" is 50 years. See "Links"). Thus, if this is indeed a legitimate simile, as it seems, then it's quite logical that Christ's return, the tribulation, & the millennial kingdom are very near at hand. On the other hand, maybe the "rapture", not the tribulation, is imminent! As the Jews finally got into the "promised land", so the Church may finally be taken into heaven, the "blessed hope".
#7) Another 40 Jubilee analogy involves Moses' Mt. Sinai experience. On his final (7th) trip to the top of Mt. Sinai, after spending 40 days in the presence of God (Ex.34:28), he returned in power & great glory to the Israelite camp with the Ten Commandments and began construction of the Tabernacle. This is exactly what Jesus will do when he returns to establish His Kingdom & build the Millennial Temple. Again, might the 40 days be a prophetic picture of 40 Jubilee periods, 2000 years, when Christ will return?
#8) The Jubilee cycle is too important not be involved in end-time events. The Jewish year of Jubilee has to do with restoration and is quite significant in God's eyes & time table. Prophetically, the past three Jubilee years were quite significant. In 1917 The Balfour Declaration established the land of Palestine as a Jewish homeland - a prophetic end-time restoration. In 1967, amidst the Six Day War, Israel took back God's City, after 2000 years Jerusalem is restored to them. Then we had the 2017 Jubilee year. Did anything significant happen? Yes! The Great Sign of Revelation 12, on Sept.23, 2017. And likely more significant to God, Jerusalem, (again - God's City), was finally given world recognition & restored as the official capitol of Israel. Maybe this was the final Jubilee. But than again, maybe the ultimate restoration, the initiation of God's 1000 year millennium, would be ushered in by the next Jubilee year, 2067! Of course, that would push the "generation" definition out to 120 years. Which I guess wouldn't be out of line seeing as the oldest person alive today is over 115 years. If that's the case, I really hope there's a long interim period between the rapture & the Tribulation!
#9) Now this is a bit off the wall (pun intended), but it's been suggested that Donald Trump's name may be prophetic. ICor.15:51-52, "Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep (die), but we will all (believers) be changed (raptured) - in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump". Could this be one of God's puns? Of course Donald Trump is not really the last Trump; he does have a large family. But with everything else that's going on, I really wouldn't put it past God to add this play on words to accompany & magnify the many other end- time signs that He's given us that we are very close to the end of the age of grace! Moreover, Trump, our 45th president, has declared & promoted Jerusalem as Israel's capital. Interestingly, he has been likened to King Cyrus who God anointed to rebuild Jerusalem back in 536 B.C. Coincidentally, this is chronicled in Isaiah 45!!
Also, some other strange coincidences: Trump was born exactly 700 days before Israel became a nation, and Trump was 70 years, 7 months, & 7 days old on his 1st full day as president of the most powerful nation in the world. Some people even claim that his election was a miracle! Moreover, (per End of Days expert Rabbi Pinchas Winston & Breaking Israel News) the Super-Moon of 11/14/16, right after the election, could be a Divine confirmation of sorts that God is behind all this. It's also significant that this moon was the brightest since the Super-Moon in 1948, the year Israel became a nation. That was 67 years ago; and 50 years ago,1967, Israel took back God's City, Jerusalem! And, it would seem that God verified his connection to & choice of Donald Trump by honoring the 2nd anniversary of Trump's presidency via a "Super Blood Wolf Moon" that crossed over the White House on Jan.20&21,2019! Every U.S. state caught a glimpse. Just too many coincidences here for God not to be involved!
Concerning "The Last Trump", Youtube presentations by ENDTIME DREAM & VISION are very good.
#10) Fundamental changes are happening to our planet: record heatwaves, floods & droughts, massive fires & firenadoes, giant dust storms, large & numerous earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. In Matthew 24, Mark 13, & Luke 21 Jesus talked about an upheaval of nature that would increase in frequency & intensity - like birth pains - as his return drew near. Whether natural or man-made, the changes that are happening are way out of our control and are just another sign of a righteous God's displeasure with his ultimate creation, man.
#11) We are being systematically desensitized to vulgar, vile, & even blasphemous desecrations to God's holy word that we would not have thought possible only a few years ago. Sexual immorality of every kind is running rampant in our society. Pornography and addiction thereto is overwhelming, our entertainment is mostly pure filth, and we have pushed God & His ways out of almost every corner of public life! We're experiencing a diabolic degradation of our Christian values. Evil is considered good and good evil! Quoting Jonathan Cahn, "I believe we crossed the line when we desecrated the sacred, holy sign of His covenant with mankind.
Before the Tribulation (Day of the Lord), most Christian Teachers, Bible Scholars, etc. believe that God will deliver his children, born-again believers, the Bride of his Son, via the "Rapture". There is general agreement that we are in a time of church history that the expectation of the return of Jesus Christ, "The Blessed Hope", is at a fever pitch! Too many things are converging!

After 2 days will he revive us; in the 3rd day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight.” The “3rd day” would correspond to the 1000 year Millennium. Again, if Jesus was born about 3BC & he died at age 33 or 30AD, 2000 years would place the start of the 7 year Tribulation at about 2023 and the Millennium 2030.

Sexual immorality of every kind is running rampant in our society. Pornography and addiction thereto is overwhelming, our entertainment is mostly pure filth, and we have pushed God & His ways out of almost every corner of public life! We're experiencing a diabolic degradation of our Christian values. Evil is considered good and good evil! Quoting Jonathan Cahn, "I believe we crossed the line when we desecrated the sacred, holy sign of His covenant with mankind.
We transformed His rainbow into an object of desecration, having joined it to the desecration of marriage! And from the American White House yet, the highest house in the land!" Isaiah 5:20 - "Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness". As they say, "If God spares us much longer, He'll have to apologize to Sodom & Gomorrah"!
Per Daniel 11:37, Satan's Antichrist will likely be homosexual. Moreover, the time is ripe for such a leader. At what other time have we seen such unbiblical attitudes come out of the closets onto our streets, even threatening violence if we do not accept their ways!
#12) God's Abrahamic Covenant (Genesis 12:3) ordains that those nations that bless Israel will be blessed, those who curse Israel will be cursed. Barack Obama's signing of a covenant with Iran placed the Jewish nation in danger. The U.N., with the exception of America via President Trump, have defiantly shook their fist at the one true God that created all things. Basically, Israel was placed on Notice to vacate East Jerusalem, the West bank, and the Golan Heights, for it is now unlawfully occupied by Israel and Jerusalem was denied being the capitol of Israel. However, via President Trump, America has declared & recognized Jerusalem (God's City) as the capitol of Israel, Dec.2017. Moreover, the US Embassy was moved from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, May 2018, coinciding with Israel's 70th anniversary as a nation! This event is unprecedented, historic, & prophetic! And, the #70 signifies "Perfect Spiritual Order carried out with All Spiritual Power & Significance". Also, it's interesting to note: Jer-USA-lem, & 3-3-3 !!!
In the Book of Zechariah, a prophecy is given in which God says: “I am going to make Jerusalem a cup that sends all surrounding peoples reeling.... And it will be on that day that I will set Jerusalem as a weighty stone to all the peoples. All who carry it will surely gash themselves, and all the nations of the land will be gathered against it.” The prophecy sounds unimaginable. How could the entire world come against one city, a little city of rocks on the edge of a desert? There's no natural explanation for it! But it's taking place right before our eyes! God's Word is true. Hopefully President Trump will continue to back Israel and keep America safe, but it'll be an uphill battle.
#13) Continuing from above, the stage has been set for the bloodiest war the Middle East has ever seen. Political tensions around the world and particularly around & concerning Israel have never been greater. The Middle East is increasingly unstable and many nations continue to militarize at increasing rates. Arab/Muslim nations, probably with the help of Russia want to eradicate Israel. The prophetic war of Psalm 83 &/or Ezekiel 38&39 could be very close. We are clearly told, Ezekiel 38:18-20, "when the Russians invade the Middle East, then the Tribulation will commence; all the people on the face of the earth will tremble”. Russia has certainly made its presence known in Syria and are practically allies with Iran! Iran of course is determined to be a nuclear power, which will likely happen in 2020. And they will not back away from their threats to Israel & the US; war will happen!
#14) Economic conditions of many nations are looking very troublesome. Many prophets & signs, including the Shemitah cycle, have pointed to a huge world wide economic downturn. This did happen to some extent in 2015 & 2016. The Venezuelan economy, in particular, has totally collapsed. Other countries & cities are declaring bankruptcy concerns. In 1929, 2000 and 2008, stock prices soared to absolutely absurd levels just before horrible stock market crashes. Is the bubble bursting! Interestingly, July 31, 2019 the DOW fell 333 points! Several stock analysts are projecting major crashes in 2019. See theeconomiccollapseblog.com
#15) ISIS, the cutting off of heads (particularly Christian), Boko haram, Al-Shabaab, the Taliban, senseless terrorism & slaughter, thousands of refugees, starvation, increasing anti-Semitism, Israel under constant threat from Iran, Hezbollah, & Hamas. Surely the spirit of Antichrist and the birth pains of Tribulation are in full swing in the middle east and are quickly spreading throughout the world! It seems that the 4 satanic horseman of Rev.6 (the first 4 Seals), have been riding for quite a while now. The martyred saints of the 5th Seal have got to be getting extremely impatient! "How long oh Lord?" When will God finally have had enough of the atrocities & moral corruptions of man? It would seem that this would be an opportune time for God to open the 6th seal, Rev.6:12. Antichrist and the beginning of Tribulation could then be ushered in.
#16) The Bible (Luke 21:11 & 25, & Acts 2:19) talks about "great signs & wonders in the heavens" in conjunction with the end-time. Joel 2:31 & Acts 2:20 say, “The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the great and terrible day of the Lord”. From April 2014 thru Sept. 2015 we had 4 Blood Moons. The last one was a super full moon, (when the moon is closest to the earth), and it was visible in the skies over Israel. More significantly, all 4 Blood Moons fell on Jewish feast/Holy Days. And it'll be another 400 years until we see another tetrad (4 Blood Moons that fall on Holy Days)! What more profound sign could God manifest to announce & warn humanity that something really BIG is about to happen! A huge billboard in the sky! Moreover, this was the 8th tetrad since Christ. Biblicaly, the #8 represents "New Beginnings". This could possibly be forecasting the rapture or the Tribulation which would usher in the wonderful 1000 year millennium. The 7th tetrad, 1967-68, along with a Jubilee year, as noted above, marked the return of the city of Jerusalem, "the City of God", to the Jewish people, another sign of completion!
#17) The Revelation 12:1&2 Celestial Woman in Labor Pain is the most detailed astronomical end-time sign recorded in scripture! "A great and wondrous sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head. She was pregnant and cried out in pain as she was about to give birth."
Per Daniel 11:37, Satan's Antichrist will likely be homosexual. Moreover, the time is ripe for such a leader. At what other time have we seen such unbiblical attitudes come out of the closets onto our streets, even threatening violence if we do not accept their ways!
#12) God's Abrahamic Covenant (Genesis 12:3) ordains that those nations that bless Israel will be blessed, those who curse Israel will be cursed. Barack Obama's signing of a covenant with Iran placed the Jewish nation in danger. The U.N., with the exception of America via President Trump, have defiantly shook their fist at the one true God that created all things. Basically, Israel was placed on Notice to vacate East Jerusalem, the West bank, and the Golan Heights, for it is now unlawfully occupied by Israel and Jerusalem was denied being the capitol of Israel. However, via President Trump, America has declared & recognized Jerusalem (God's City) as the capitol of Israel, Dec.2017. Moreover, the US Embassy was moved from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, May 2018, coinciding with Israel's 70th anniversary as a nation! This event is unprecedented, historic, & prophetic! And, the #70 signifies "Perfect Spiritual Order carried out with All Spiritual Power & Significance". Also, it's interesting to note: Jer-USA-lem, & 3-3-3 !!!
In the Book of Zechariah, a prophecy is given in which God says: “I am going to make Jerusalem a cup that sends all surrounding peoples reeling.... And it will be on that day that I will set Jerusalem as a weighty stone to all the peoples. All who carry it will surely gash themselves, and all the nations of the land will be gathered against it.” The prophecy sounds unimaginable. How could the entire world come against one city, a little city of rocks on the edge of a desert? There's no natural explanation for it! But it's taking place right before our eyes! God's Word is true. Hopefully President Trump will continue to back Israel and keep America safe, but it'll be an uphill battle.
#13) Continuing from above, the stage has been set for the bloodiest war the Middle East has ever seen. Political tensions around the world and particularly around & concerning Israel have never been greater. The Middle East is increasingly unstable and many nations continue to militarize at increasing rates. Arab/Muslim nations, probably with the help of Russia want to eradicate Israel. The prophetic war of Psalm 83 &/or Ezekiel 38&39 could be very close. We are clearly told, Ezekiel 38:18-20, "when the Russians invade the Middle East, then the Tribulation will commence; all the people on the face of the earth will tremble”. Russia has certainly made its presence known in Syria and are practically allies with Iran! Iran of course is determined to be a nuclear power, which will likely happen in 2020. And they will not back away from their threats to Israel & the US; war will happen!

She was pregnant and cried out in pain as she was about to give birth."
Many signs are mentioned in the Bible, this is the only one labeled "great". It involves the fulfillment of this prophetic scripture which culminated on Sept. 23, 2017. Among other celestial bodies, it involved the Sun, the Moon, the constellation Virgo, and a conjunction of Mercury, Venus, & Mars. See: Discover Ministries (Pastor Steve Cioccolanti) - "THE GREATEST END TIMES SIGN in 777”
https://youtube.com/watch?v=XA6JcY-ikec
After retrograding (going back & forth) in Virgos’ womb for 9 months, the King planet Jupiter exited, or was birthed on Sept. 23, 2017. Which seems to correspond to Rev.12:5 that tells us, “The woman gave birth to a male child, who will rule all nations with an iron scepter. And her child was snatched up to God and to his throne”. The woman, the constellation Virgo, could represent two women: 1) Mary, the virgin mother of Jesus, and/or 2) the Nation Israel. The general consensuses of many Bible scholars is that Rev.12:1 thru 5 is simply a historical recap of Israels contention with Satan culminating in Jesus' birth & ascension to heaven. However, many, including myself, believe this has got to be prophetic as well as historic. Surely this can’t be the simple retelling of the birth of Christ etc.; we’re in the Book of Revelation, this is end-time ground and we're talking about a "great" & "final" end-time sign here! A heavenly event that happened at a time when the return of Jesus, the rapture, is thought to be so eminent by so many! The woman, Virgo, could quite logically, represent the Nation of Israel, God's chosen people, the “spiritual mother” of the Church. And the child could certainly represent the Body of Christ, the multitude of born-again believers who are raptured and who will reign with Jesus with a rod of iron, (2Tim.2:12 & Rev.2:26-27). One clue that particularly alludes to the rapture is the term "snatched up" in verse 5. Acts 1:9&10 tells us that "Jesus was lifted up (the ascension) while they were looking on. They were looking intently into the sky as he was going, until a cloud hid him from their sight." Jesus certainly was not "snatched up", (like in the twinkling of an eye)!
The last time these celestial bodies where similarly aligned was over 5900 years ago, near the time of Adam & Eve! Only recently has all this been revealed due to the advanced God-given technological knowledge and capabilities that we presently possess, (A major end-time sign in itself). We also need to note here, this is all about astronomy and has nothing to do with the black arts of astrology. Genesis 1:14 - "Let there be lights in the firmament... let them be for signs, & for seasons, & for days, & years."
This is an amazing revelation that God Himself orchestrated. It culminated 3 days after the Jewish year 5777 finished. Amazingly, recall that Jesus "arose" 3 days after his last words on the cross, ”It is finished"!! Moreover, 777 represents "triple completion"! Furthermore, the year 5778 was ushered in by Rosh Hashana & the blowing of many trumpets. This ended with the Feast of Trumpets which has always been associated with the rapture of the Church! Many thought this forecasted the Rapture. The astronomy & thinking were accurate, but alas, nothing happened! There can be no argument however, the Great & Wondrous Heavenly Sign of Sept.23, 2017 did indeed happen. Our job now is to discern what it meant. Certainly, it did not include the immediate Rapture of the Church. One hypothesis (Red Moon Rapture by Stephanie Dawn), is that we have been given up to a 3 year window for the rapture. This is based on another Great Heavenly Sign, the Star of Bethlehem, which announced Jesus' birth and the fact that it took the wise men up to 3 years to find Jesus from the first appearing of that Great Sign.

A Personal Hypothesis - Rapture Rosh Hashanah 2023
In Jan.2019, I was prompted, I'm guessing by the Holy Spirit, to consider the question, "what if the Rev.12 Great Sign date itself, 9/23/17, is a sign!" Surly it means something! We're talking about a Great & Wondrous End-Time Sign that was orchestrated by God!! Surly He did not just choose this date randomly! Via Biblical Numerology the #9 represents 'Finality, Divine Completeness, or Judgment'. The #17 denotes 'The Perfection of Spiritual Order'. The #23 doesn't possess any special biblical significance, however, maybe the combination could point to the Completion of the "age of grace", the Rapture, &/or Judgment in 2023!
2/4/19: Three ("3") days after the above posting, we (the web-site) received an Anonymous Guestbook Comment, i.e., "he/she receives a lot of #s, but lately nothing but the #23"! Plus, an amazing rapture dream!!
And, this same day, I received an invitation to a surprise B.D. party, scheduled for 2/23/19!!!
So, does the #23 represent rapture in 2023? Could that be the B.D. of the Raptured Church! Looks logical, but I'm not going to be dogmatic as yet.
Moreover, it seems we have a Mystery! Neither God (or Satan) will verify this hypothesis with a 3rd #23 coincidence. Instead, it seems I was purposely given ?:22 & ?:24 via my clock, but mysteriously absent has been another #23! - Maybe the #23 or 9/23/17 represent something totally different?
2/7/19: Of course before the possible rapture of Rev.12:5, we have Rev.12:3&4, "Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with 7 heads & 10 horns & 7 crowns on his heads." "And the dragon proceeded to pursue the woman". Israel (as well as the whole world) is certainly being threatened by war and satanic forces of all types. This could likely include the war of Psalm 83 or the Ezekiel 38&39 Gog/Magog war against Israel which will likely precede the rapture. - So, maybe the year 2023 is still a good prophetic date, just not necessarily or exclusively for the rapture. In Chapters 2&3 of Revelation, John ends each of his letters to the 7 churches with "To him that overcometh", he will receive heavenly eternal blessings. Thus, it seems likely that the church will not be spared from the birth-pangs & Red Dragon of Rev.12:3&4. Although I'm sure we'll be spared from the main Tribulation. In 2Thess.2:7&8 Paul explains that the "Wicked One", Antichrist, will not be revealed until after the Holy Spirit, i.e., the Church whose members are the Temple of the Holy Spirit, is taken out of the way, presumably, via the Rapture. I'm guessing that this confirmation of our Blessed Hope will act as an encouragement for the Church to minister & witness in this very likely devastating interim period, from now till Rapture. This should likely include much of the 333 community, those who have accepted God's prompting.
2/12/19: Thinking & Praying on the above has possibly yielded the following revelation! The #22, which is the double 11, represents a concentration of Disorder, Disorganization, Disintegration, Chaos, and the likely Corruption of God's Word. Thus it could be alluding to some kind of crisis, possibly in 2022. The middle-east is a cauldron ready to erupt and it might just encompass the whole world. Or, maybe an economic crisis, which has long been projected (see Dream of 2/15/19 below).
The #24 is particularly relevant. It's associated with priesthood. Born-again believers are considered priests. It's also associated with Rev.4:4 and the 24 elders on 24 thrones surrounding the throne of God in heaven. This is the "rapture chapter"! Rev.4:1&2, "I heard a voice like a trumpet say, "come up here". And at once, I (John) was in the spirit and there before me was the thrown of God in heaven".
Additionally, on April 8, 2024 North America will experience a total solar eclipse. It and the total solar eclipse of 2017 (7 yrs earlier & the same year as the Great Sign) will form an ominous "X" over the United States! With the large number of Christians residing in the U.S., that could mean that a rapture in 2023 might result in the demise of the U.S. in 2024!
2/13/19: Today I awoke at 6:23. – Maybe I finally received my 3rd confirmation!?
2/15/19: Today I woke up to "Hay Jack"! No one was there. Clock read 8:33, i.e., New Beginnings : I Promise!
I fell back to sleep & had a Vivid Dream: "Was at a counter with my brother trying to come up with enough money to pay our bill. Money generally in my pocket was not there. But I finally came up with a very crinkled $5 bill! I awoke, the time was 8:53."
Interpretation - No money & crinkled bill could be prophesying bad economic times ahead. $5 could represent 5 years, which would make it 2023. Or the #5 could represent God's Grace. Or maybe the end of God's Grace! 8:53 might be interpreted as - New Beginnings, In 5 years, With God. Maybe Rapture!! That would certainly be God's Grace!
3/4/19: Upon ordering David Jeremiah's The Book of Signs, I noticed my credit card expiration date, 09/23. September 2023!!
3/7/19: Conferred with my step-daughter & spiritual mentor, Bonnie. To her, the #23 immediately brought to mind Psalm 23. It's a Psalm that has served humanity for eons, and yet seems particularly appropriate at this time. You really need to read it. It totally wraps up God's plan, will, & direction for His end-time Saints, - those who can truly say, "The Lord is my Shepherd". Even though we might "walk through the Valley of the Shadow of Death" the Lord will comfort & take care of us, and "we will dwell in the House of the Lord forever". This is truly a personification of the Great 9/23/17 Heavenly Sign of Rev.12 which encompasses birth pains (vs.2), satanic warfare, corruption, etc (vs.3&4), and the Rapture of the Church (vs.5). Wow! What a revelation! It could certainly seem logical that Psalm 23 could be pointing to a 2023 rapture!
And: Just before typing this update, I received the following message from my Computer Cleaning program, "23 programs are slowing your PC"!!
3/23/19: I noted a very good synopsis of Revelation Chapter 12 posted by "Red Moon Rapture" (via Stephanie Dawn)!!
3/28/19: Right after providing the above to pastors at three churches to illicit their thoughts, tonight I received a vivid & disturbing dream. It was in color, which often means it was God driven.
THE DREAM: There's this old light blue bus, not in great condition, for sale on a lot. I (and maybe someone else) open the door & climb aboard. The driver seat is missing. It starts to roll backwards down a steep hill. It's a narrow muddy road with all kinds of obstacles - vehicles, fencing, etc. I tried to drive it, but it's out of control. Brakes barely worked at all. Passing places to pull off but going too fast to safely try. It finally stops at the bottom, an isolated & bit scary spot. We have a small dying, baby alligator. I lay him on a pile of logs. We're concerned for him. There's a small pole with several very small but colorful LED type lights attached. We think that may comfort him. He revives, although still quite weak, and climbs up the light-pole where he calmly rests.
INTERPRETATION: The BUS symbolizes a medium sized ministry. LIGHT BLUE references immature development of a spiritual gift, evil spirit, or corruption. ALLIGATORS symbolize people with "big mouths" who can hurt via lies, rumors, & big tails. (John Paul Jackson – Dreams&Mysteries)
The dream originally seemed to portray a corrupt, false, or misguided ministry or ministry initiative that is heading dangerously backwards, downhill, with no spiritual guidance, which needs to be stopped so that gossip, lies, & false tails can be put to rest via the light of truth. - Scary!
However, after considerable prayer, a clearer picture has emerged. The dream was a manifestation of God portraying my fears of what others, and sometimes myself, are thinking about this controversial ministry, and particularly this 2023 pre-trib rapture hypothesis. I'm convinced that the Lord is telling me that these people who I'm concerned about, represented by the sickly baby alligator, are almost dead when it comes to spiritual end-time &/or rapture wisdom. These, what I've thought of as potentially dangerous people, are really just babes needing to be drawn to the light. And, although this ministry is a bit scary to navigate, it's what God is leading me do. Also, I'm absolutely sure that it is no coincidence that this dream was given me at the same time as this crazy 2023 rapture revelation is manifesting itself and I am trying to reach out to others for some kind of acknowledgment, guidance, or corroboration. Thank You Lord!
4/3/19: Received a Guestbook Comment from Mike - "God is calling His children. We are the Watchmen on the wall and it is our duty to spread the great news of His redeeming love and salvation through His son Jesus. Numbers I see the most - 23, 123, 223, 323, & 333. God wakes me up regularly at 3AM, gives me messages to deliver and dreams to work through. The more we become sensitive to these callings the more He uses us. I have so many occurrences and messages with seeing these numbers that it is no coincidence. My wife had a Vision about the year 2023 but nothing specifically related to that. Of course I never want to assume that we know when Jesus is coming back, but we always need to be prepared. Just like a thief in the night. It may drive you crazy sometimes with the amount of times you see these numbers, but it is just God knocking on the door of your heart. Let Him in! Email me with any questions or concerns. God is great!" Mbmannurseman@hotmail.com
Watchman Mike, Wow! Concerning your #23s - this continues to be an amazing & controversial revelation or elaborate satanic hoax! As you can imagine, we're dealing with something very important here. And we have to be very discerning. Like you say, such things can drive a person crazy! God bless your continued watchfulness.
4/12/19: Still praying for revelation. Today, watching my favorite TV Bible teacher, Les Feldick, he mentioned the #23, 3 times!!! Absolutely amazing! And even moreso because this program was originally aired in the mid 1990s! Moreover, the scriptures couldn't be more appropriate at this time! So very Rapture oriented!
1) 1Thess.5:23 - Has to do with the coming of our Lord.
2) John 12:23 - "The hour has come when the Son of Man should be glorified."
3) Romans Chapter 23 - Amazingly, he mis-spoke; there is no Chapter 23 in Romans. He was actually referencing Chapter 3 which has to do with salvation.
4/17/19: It just so happens that for the past few weeks my Sunday School class has been studying the Old Testament Book of Esther. Serendipitously, I just so happened to come across this book, The Mystery of Esther - God's Prophetic Plan and later, Prophecies in the Book of Esther. They reveal the underlying epic & prophetic end-time story having to do with Satan's unending goal of killing all the Jews. Keep in mind that the Book of Esther depicts real people in real events. On another level however, these real people are actors in a drama created & inspired by God. They are acting out past, present, & future events as illustrated in the Bible. Queen Esther (who is symbolic of the Church, including born-again Jews), with the guidance of Mordecai (symbolic of Jesus), issued an "Edict", authorized by the King (symbolic of God), which appoints a day for the Jews to assemble, protect themselves, & destroy their enemies. The Edict was sent out on the 23rd day of the 3rd month, the month of Sivan (our May/June). This is in Chapter 8 & verse 9, (8=New Beginnings & 9=Judgment). The historic Book of Esther goes on to chronicle the defeat of Haman the Jew-hatter (who is symbolic of Satan & Antichrist) and all of the Jews enemies. Interestingly, like the Dragon of Rev.12:3&4 which had ten horns (which represent leaders of nations), so Haman had ten sons, who were likewise defeated & killed.
Are there truths in the Book of Esther that are relevant for us today? Does God have a message that He has chosen to reveal, only now, in these last days? Could the revelation of Esther be God's final instruction to His people? Did God give us this date of the 23rd as a clue similar to that of the Rev.12 Great Sign date of 9/23/17? Are they pointing to the year 2023? I'm leaning towards yes!
We're told that Esther became the king's bride & queen in the 7th year of his reign, another perfect eschatological picture of Jesus & His bride during the 7th millennium. Delving farther into the Book of Esther, Chapter 8:16&17 tells us that everywhere the Edict of the 23rd went it was “a time of happiness & joy, gladness & honor, with feasting & celebrating" by God's people. This could be likened to a rapture celebration similar to that of Revelation Chapters 4&5 when the Church is raptured and Jesus assumes Kingship, which triggers the forthcoming death knell of God's enemies. Moreover, Mordecai (personifying Jesus), was given a Kings crown, remnant, & prominence, just as Jesus will ultimately be crowned & reign preeminent on earth after the rapture & tribulation, (Rev.14:14). Esther 8:17b goes on to say that "many people of other nations became Jews (believers) because fear of the Jews seized them". Again, sounds like the tremendous revival that will surely happen right after the rapture! Thus it seems to me that the Book of Esther is truly prophetic and in light of the significance of the Rev.12 Great Sign, it similarly foreshadows the Rapture in 2023!!
Even more significant, searching scripture, I’m amazed at how often God seems to show us how he feels about the monumental & glorious events that involve the numbers 16&17. First, looking at Bible Numerology, the #16 represents “Love” and the #17, being the combination of two perfect #s, 7&10, represents “Divine Completion”. Throughout the Bible there are just so many scriptures that associate the #s 16&17 with a rapture type experience & salvation:
1) 1Thes.4:16&17 is the prominent & most important scripture pointing to our rapture, – “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, & with the trump of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise first." "Then we which are alive & remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air."
2) 1Cor.15:16&17 is the 2nd most prominent, – “If the dead are not raised, then Christ has not been raised either.” “And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile.” Moreover, verses 22 thru 24 seem to spell out a possible 2022, 2023, 2024 rapture timeline: 22-"For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive.” 23-"But each in his own turn: Christ, the first fruits; then, when he comes, those that belong to him.” & 24-"Then the end will come.” Verses 51&52 go on to say “Listen I tell you a mystery: we shall not all sleep (die), but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump.”
3) Exodus 3:16&17 – “The Lord appeared to me and said” “I have promised to bring you up out of your misery in Egypt.”
4) Daniel 3:16&17 – “Shadrack, Meshack, & Abednego replied to the king, "we do not need to defend ourselves before you.” “The God we serve is able to save us, he will rescue us from your hand O king.”
5) Malachi 3:16&17 – “concerning those who fear the Lord & honor his name.” “They will be mine, says the Lord Almighty, my treasured possession, on the day that I act. I will spare them, just as in compassion a man spares his son who serves him.”
6) John 3:16&17 – “For God so loved the world …” “to save the world through Him.”
7) Philemon – This is Paul’s final epistle directed primarily to the Gentiles before Tribulation. It’s a portrait of the rapture. Verse 16 – “no longer a slave, but a dear brother.” Verse 17 – “So welcome him as you would welcome me.”
8) Rev.6:16&17 – “Hide us from the wrath of the Lamb!” “For the great day of his wrath has come.”
9) Rev.7:16&17 – “Never again shall they hunger or thirst.” “For the Lamb will be their Shepard & shall wipe away every tear.”
10) Rev.22:16&17 – “I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches.” “The Spirit & the bride say “Come!” And let him who hears say “Come!” Whoever is thirsty, let him come; let him take the free gift of the water of life.”
Also, concerning the #17: 1) The 2nd banquet of Queen Esther which resulted in the initiation of the Edict of the 23rd and the hanging of evil Hamon,& his 10 sons was on the 17th of Nisan. 2) Noah & the ark. Noah & his family were saved, lifted high above the devastating flood, essentially raptured, on the 17th day of the 2nd month! And then amazingly, after carrying the believers through the judgment, it came to rest on the mountains of Ararat on the 17th day of the 7th month! - In Math.24:37 Jesus said, "As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man". 3) Psalm 23 also has an uncanny relationship to the #17! There are 17 references in the Psalm to the believer & particularly in connection with the doctrine of assurance & security in Christ. 4) The relevance of the #17 is scripturally represented in two particular passages where we have 7 negatives vs 10 positives. a) Romans 8:35-39, “What can separate us from the love of Christ? - Nothing!”. b) Hebrews 12:18-24, the Old vs the New dispensations are contrasted; both of these scriptures could personify a rapture. 5) Finally, we also have the #17 incorporated in the date of the Great Rev.12 Sign itself, 9/23/17. By a simple transposition type decipherization, we have Sept.17, 2023!! Like a sign hidden in plain sight! But without the preponderance of underlying revelation that God has miraculously orchestrated, it stood naked of any real significance. Thus I believe a mystery has been revealed at a time chosen by God. And it has got to refer to the rapture! What else could it be! God is amazing!!
Referring back to Queen Esther's Edict of the 23rd, a specific date for the destruction of the enemies of the Jews was given. It was the 13th day of the 12th month (the month of Adar, which is generally March on the Civil calendar). The celebration of Purim is celebrated to this day in commemoration. At this time also, Mordecai (the personification of Jesus) "went out from the presence of the King in royal robes and a large crown of gold and reigned supreme over all the land". This all transpires in the 9th chapter of Esther. Again, Bible Numerology associates the #9 with Divine Judgment & Finality. This of course corresponds perfectly with the Judgments of Tribulation and the resulting manifestation of the 1000 year reign of Christ, as King, & his Church. - It's possible that this date, the 13th day of the 12th month, is also prophetic. However, it could just be symbolic; the #13 represents "the # of ill-omen, Rebellion, & Revolution" and the #12 signifies "the Perfection of Divine Government". This is perfectly logical. It's also possible that the time period between the Edict of the 23rd of Sivan (which personifies the rapture) and the 13th of Adar (which personifies the Tribulation) could be alluding to an 8+ month (or maybe years) period between the Rapture & Tribulation. Of course the actual date of the Tribulation (or Day of the Lord) is a secret only God the Father knows.
One day the Jew & Jewish nation will also appreciate the Book of Esther as not only historic but prophetic as well. One day Zechariah 12:10 will manifest, "they shall look upon Me whom they have pierced and shall mourn for Him as one morneth for his only son". And then they will celebrate & rejoice as God delivers them from their enemies as he did in the time of Esther. I'm thinking we're getting very close to this time. And a rapture would certainly help seal the deal!
4/19/19 (Good Friday & Passover): Googling the #23 yielded a surprising result. It is often described as the # of incident. Many historic events can be found to have a connection to the #23. Belief in these connections is known as the 23 Enigma. Some people are obsessed with it. In addition to the Great Sign of 9/23/17 and the Book of Esther's ominous Edict date, we have the following:
1) As noted above, the most famous Psalm, 23, is ominous as well as hopeful.
2) The 1st Morse Code transmission, "What has God wrought!", is from Numbers 23:23. (Recall that Mr.Morse, surely via God's inspiration, gave us our SOS/333 warning!).
3) Julius Caesar was supposedly stabbed 23 times.
4) William Shakespeare was born & died on April 23rd.
5) The numbers of the infamous date 9-11-2001 add to 23.
6) The Hiroshima bomb was dropped at 8:15 am. 8+15=23.
7) The Titanic sank on 4-15-1912. The #s add to 23.
8) Saddam Hussein was hung 12-30-2006. The #s add to 23.
9) Jezebel is mentioned 23 times in the Bible.
10) Charles Darwin's Origin of Species was published in 1859 = 23.
11) The human cell generally contains 23 pairs of chromosomes.
12) "W" is the 23rd letter of the English alphabet. On the normal computer keyboard, it's right below & between 2 & 3.
As seen, there is certainly something supernatural about the #23 and most have an ominous connotation. It's like God has reserved this # for monumental events, of which the Rapture just may be the ultimate!!
Interestingly, we note also that the Book of Revelation ends with Chapter 22. Possibly there is no Chapter 23 because 23 is representative of the Church which has been raptured in Chapter 4. Moreover, the Book of Revelation itself is a monumental event; "it is finished"!
4/25/19: More Verification. This morning after praying about this 2023 hypothesis, my heater kicked on at 10:42. The #10 signifies "The Perfection of Divine Order" or "The # and Order are Perfect". The #42 is Antichrist's number. I'm thinking this is verification that this 2023 hypothesis is on track and that Antichrist will likely be revealed in 2023. 2Thes.2:3 says - Tribulation will not come until there is a falling away (or departure) and Antichrist is revealed. Verses 7&8 go on to say - Antichrist won't be revealed until after the Holy Spirit (the Church) is taken out of the way (raptured).
4/27/19: Just read an article in Prophecy in the News. Leviticus Chapter 23 talks of God's 7 Feasts. Four have already manifested prophetically. Rosh Hashana, also known as the Feast of Trumpets, is next on the list. This is a 2 day celebration similar to the 2 day celebration of Purim in the Book of Esther. Both foreshadow the rapture of the Church!! - Moreover, Rosh Hashanah is one of the "Fall" feasts and the following scripture verifies or at least strongly alludes to a Pre-Tribulation 'Fall' Rapture and the resulting dread & horror that the world will be facing during the Great Tribulation.
Micah 7:1-6: "Woe is me! For I am as when they have gathered the summer fruits, at the gleaning of the vineyard. (Grapes in Israel are harvested August - October). The good (godly) have perished (vanished) out of the earth: no upright person remains. All men lie in wait to shed blood... to do evil. The day of thy visitation has come."
4/27/19: Received a Guestbook Comment from Lindsey / Iowa, USA. - "I’m almost 9 mos pregnant and woke up from a contraction. Afterward, I couldn’t quite sleep and was messaging a missionary in Africa. I ended my message to this dear one with “it’s 3:33am and should try to rest” - then felt a prompting I should look up bible verses with that combination and found this site. The Lord tends to speak to me in dreams but this was my first 333 - Just thought I’d share."
Lindsey, So glad you did. This being your 1st 333 & being 9 months pregnant & this being the 27th is another verification (actually 3 in 1) that ties in perfectly with what the Lord seems to be showing us, - that the Church's delivery/rapture is very close, right at the door! You are now an integral part of this crazy 2023 rapture hypothesis! Blessings.
Note: The #27 is 3 cubed. This expresses the concentrated essence of the #3 which signifies Divine Completeness or Perfection. There are 27 books in the New Testament. This represents the Completion of God's Word to mankind and the end of the world as we know it.
5/6/19: Another huge coincidence - I have 5 years of "Thru the Bible with J. Vernon McGee" on a zip drive that I listen to when driving. Today he finished Nehemiah and just started teaching the Book of Esther! - which we are just now finishing up in our Sunday School class!
5/7/19: Guestbook Comment by Amy. "Today I woke up at 2 am to a train horn (which registered in my mind as a horn, not a whistle). I couldn't get back to sleep. Soon after I heard a different train sound its horn. I live in a "no whistle" zone so if the train sounds there is a problem. Then I heard a 3rd train sound its horn and quickly looked at the clock, 3:33. Immediately I knew I was supposed to walk to the tracks- 3 blocks- and pray over them. As this isn't a great idea in my neighborhood, I was reluctant but I felt an urgent calling so I did and prayers began to flow over the whole neighborhood as I walked there and back. When I got back home, I received words for two people. I had been at the first day of a conference on May 6th and both individuals were at the same conference (2 day conference totally unrelated to religion). I gave them the words. Both messages involved expansion of Biblical leadership and messengers. After the conference, they found me and both messages had happened during the day. When I got home, just now, I searched for "Biblical meaning of 3:33" and found this site. I was incredibly amazed when I saw the connection to your dream of locomotives. A total of 5 horns sounded during the night from the time I woke up and then I heard 5 trains pass with no horns."
Amy, You know, you're likely making many people envious of your faith & intimacy with the Holy realm! Your 5 horns experience reminds me of the dreams interpreted by Joseph in Genesis Chapter 41 having to do with 7 good years followed by 7 bad years. Let us know if you should find an interpretation.
5/12/19 - Amy, this morning I received the following: The #5 represents Grace. We are in the Age of Grace. Like the 333/SOS & other ministries (trains), we are warning people (blowing our horns). This is going to stop. Maybe in 5 years, 2023. WOW!!!
Also - Concerning the #5, see my dream of 2/15/19.
5/25/19: Guestbook Comment by Carolyn Brumley. "This is the first time to your site after seeing 333 on my clock today. I've had a rollercoaster life spiritually. Only until the end of 2015 was I truly awakened and called to serve God more fully. I began to have dreams and visions increasing during 2016. I had a recent vision of a large "23" on the ground. It was a week before May 21-22 which had been all over you-tube. Do you have insight on how 23 might be significant now, even though May 23, 2019 has past?"
Carolyn, I love your testimony. About the "23", it seems that it's another conformation of what the Lord's been revealing to me. And it sounds like you're ready!
5/29/19: Headline News: "FOR FIRST TIME IN REGATHERED ISRAEL’S HISTORY, A DULY-ELECTED PRIME MINISTER FAILS TO FORM A COALITION TRIGGERING AN UNPRECEDENTED REPEAT ELECTION ON SEPTEMBER 17". It would seem God is right on time with one more amazing verification!! And from Israel no less!! How profoundly appropriate! Moreover, what more important "ELECTION" could one make than that of choosing Jesus and thus the "Rapture". What a phenomenal end-time message!
CONCLUSIONS - Sept.16&17, 2023 RAPTURE: The multitude of coincidences & synchronicity of the above happenings & corroborating comments within such a short time frame are nothing less than supernatural. I am convinced that God did indeed orchestrate all of this. I am not a man of degrees like many theologians. If all this weren't just layed out like on a silver platter, I would never have been able to piece it all together. This is totally a God thing! Moreover, I believe this 2022-2023-2024 rapture scenario has been overwhelmingly supported by scripture, particularly the Rev.12 Great Sign, the Book of Esther, Micah 7:1-6, & the profound significance of all the Verses 16&17 number combinations. There is now absolutely no doubt in my mind that God wants this date, September 16&17, 2023, made known & set in stone! Although, some people will complain, "but nobody is to know the day or hour!” That applies to the "the Day of the Lord" specifically, which this is not. The Day of the Lord is a horrendous time! (See below "But Nobody Knows!") - Moreover, although this may or may not be relevant, if God prophesied Christ's 1st coming, even to the day, (Daniel 9:25), why wouldn't he make his 2nd advent known? God does keep it somewhat veiled in scripture, just like that of Jesus' 1st coming, but they really should have known!
And now for the frosting on the cake. As noted above, every Biblical Feast links up with a prophetic event, and the next event on the prophetic calendar is Rosh Hashanah / The Feast of Trumpets. It's one of the most important holidays on the Jewish calendar. It’s a two-day celebration that begins on the 1st day of Tishrei. Coinciding secular dates vary from mid-September to early October. Not surprisingly, in 2023 it will be celebrated on Sept. 16&17!!! Moreover, Rosh Hashanah has always been symbolic of the rapture & the resurrection of the dead, and is also known as "the Feast for which you do not know the day or the hour"; it depends on the sighting of the New Moon.
Rosh Hashanah is also known as the “Day of Judgment”. The ten days, the Days of Awe, from Rosh Hashanah to Yom Kippur are known as the High Holy Days, the most sacred time of the Jewish year. Because Rosh Hashanah is the “Day of Judgment”, awe & dread are a part of its message. Each day of the preceding month a shofar is blown to warn the people that Rosh Hashanah is approaching. In addition to the theme of awakening and a call to repent, the sounding of the shofar is associated with a message to prepare for the coming of the Messiah, get ready to meet the Lord. According to Jewish scholars, the day of Rosh Hashanah involves the sounding of the Last Trump, such as mentioned in 1Cor.15:52. – So, is this a supernatural verification of the day of the rapture?!! I'm leaning towards definitely!! And what better sign to the Jew than this happening on one of their most holy feast days. God is absolutely amazing!!!
So, we have the year and the day of our soon coming rapture, now what about the hour. Of course it would depend on where you live, but I believe daybreak in God’s Holy City Jerusalem would certainly be the most logical. In eastern USA, (my time zone), that would be 7hrs & one calendar day earlier. And thus we have the 16&17 combination that Rosh Hashanah incorporates! This in itself is more proof of God's profound handiwork in that He established Rosh Hashanah as a two day celebration! God is omnipotent!! And the Bible is indeed His supernatural & trustworthy handbook for humanity.
I realize that setting a date is a profound step and I certainly don't feel qualified to be the one receiving or purveying these revelations. Moreover, friends & family would agree; most have been quite skeptical. Still working on that. All I can hang my hat on is that God has often used the lowly to manifest his glory. Hopefully someone of stature will pick up on this, receive corroborating revelation, and be able to spread the word. I'm thinking this is really God's prerogative & responsibility.
The question will also be asked, “Why now? Firstly, God certainly would not want to reveal this too far in advance. That would simply result in complacency. For it to have been made known to the apostles would have negated the immanency factor for 2000 years of Christians! However, now that it is really immanent, I'm guessing God does want to warn people and moreover, give them enough time to get to know him so they might possibly get their name included in the Book of Life. I’m guessing it could be something similar to why God sent the apostle Paul to the wilderness for a 3year training course after Jesus revealed himself to him. It takes time to really get to know God/Jesus after ones been steeped in the world for so long! Secondly, as mentioned above, why give Satan any advantage in the promotion of his deceptive counter attack! What a glorious, mind-changing, faith-promoting, spectacular, glorious God-event it would be if His children knew and were awaiting the day, - and it happened!! Wow!! What a profound witness to the world & unbelievers!! Imagine the credence & glory this would manifest to God and at the same time so greatly diminish & undermine the false explanation that Satan will be putting forth! It would also be nice that we wouldn't have all that death & destruction caused by vanishing Christians in car & plane crashes!! Most would probably be gathered in churches. Moreover, afterward, what a marvelous & tremendous potential for mass revival!!
A quote from Dr. Jeremiah's The Book of Signs, - "The more vividly aware we are of His impending return, the more we'll be motivated in our work for Him in these last days". Now understand, this is in no way his endorsement of any kind of date setting, however it does acknowledge that knowing how close we are to His gathering us together with Him should illicit confidence, hope, and a renewed sense of purpose. Similarly, the beloved evangelist, Luis Palau recently commented, "The coming of Jesus Christ is really a big deal! Unbelievers are often more interested than people who read the Bible. Politicians, business-people, people who use their brains, they mostly all want to know, 'what's the end of all this? What's the climax of history? What is before us?' They want to know! It's a major part of the Gospel message!" How much more of an impact if the immanency of his return is expressly associated with a very near coming date!
Moreover, revealing the timing of our "blessed hope" would give his children a loving warning & heads-up to "prepare", certainly spiritually and possibly materially, as well as providing needed incentive to persevere. War &/or economic collapse may likely precede the rapture. It might be good to have some kind of cash reserve as well as some extra food, water, fuel, etc. And we need this time to minister & witness. We really need to let our friends & family know (along with the Jewish Nation) that if we should suddenly disappear, they will really need to take this Jesus stuff seriously. After the rapture, most people are going to be deceived by Satan's wondrous signs & miracles. You don't want your family & friends to be among them. Hell is no place to spend eternity! Born-again believers are going to be the only light in a world of great darkness. Moreover, like Stephen & many others, they (and possibly we) may be called upon to be martyrs for the glory of God. Are you ready? Is your family ready? Hopefully most of us will simply be raptured. Praise God!
The Church really needs to make this a priority. There are millions of on-the-fence Christians out there who need to be introduced to the truth of the Rapture in order to be able to refute the lies & deception that Satan will manifest to cover up the truth. Satan's explanation of the mass exodus will be in total opposition to the Rapture. It will include lying wonders, signs, & counterfeit miracles that will deceive most of the world (as chronicled in Math.24:24, 2Thes.2:9&10, & Rev.13:13&14). What better & more loving investment could we make than providing for the ultimate salvation of millions of souls, including the Jews, after the Rapture.
Of course, many will fear embarrassment and question, "what if the Rapture doesn't happen as projected?" Good thought, but, surely we cannot let this last very great sign of God be for naught! We need to exercise faith. We need to acknowledge God's will. - His desire that all people should be saved and come to a knowledge of the truth. And certainly, if nothing else, we need to at least be preaching the "Blessed Hope", the pre-trib Rapture, (see Titus:2:13 and "The Pre-Trib Rapture" below).
7/6/19: Yesterday I finished the above update linking Rosh Hashanah to the 2023 Rapture hypothesis which I posted today. This morning God honored me by waking me at 5:23 am. Thank You Lord!
I also need to thank Joseph Good of Hatikva Ministries for two books, Prophecies in the Book of Esther & Rosh HaShanah & the Messianic Kingdom to Come, which were invaluable in my research.
10/2/2019: Guestbook Comment from Neil / Australia. - "333 and 1111 since 2017. Hi, I feel compelled to let you know about a funny little instance that just happened, make of it what you will... Just found your website tonight after feeling another strong pull to connect with God on a higher level. I've been hesitant to join religion thus far, but would like to, just a bit lost in what to trust. While reading through 'God's End-Time SOS' I reached the end of the first part of 'End-Time Signs'. Realizing I had become caught up reading and it was surely late I went to look at the time, 11:23pm...I was a bit disappointed I didn't see 11:11.... That was until I continued reading into the next part, 'A Personal Hypothesis - Rapture Rosh Hashanah 2023'. Wowzers...really, hahaha!! Then when deciding to type this, I noticed the date just changed from the 2nd to the 3rd of October, and my battery is at 23%. Hmmmmm!! - Any advice on where a non religious person should start would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time and great website, I look forward to reading the rest. All the best, Neilh80@live.com Ps. 12:23am!!
Neil, Yes, Wowzers! And a blessing for me as well as yourself. I do sympathize with your trust issues; there are so many questionable teachings & churches out there! But it would seem that God is certainly trying to help you connect with Him. By this time you've probably already read my advice on the 'Salvation' page.
Somewhat along this line, a fantasy thought, - seeing as you and Pastor Cioccolanti of Discover Ministries (noted in 'End-Time Signs' above) are of Australia, wouldn't it be a huge 'coincidence' if you were both of the same area! If that (Discover Church, Glen Waverly VIC) could be your church! If he could be the one destined to make known this Sept.17,2023 rapture mystery! - May the Lord continue to bless your walk.
A PROPHETIC RAPTURE DREAM
10/31/2019 – In an effort to find out if God might be revealing this 2023 Rapture date to others, I googled “Rapture Sept. 2023”. Amazingly, directly below my web-site listing was an older (2015) listing by http://pillarofenoch.blogspot.com
Helena Lehman of The Pillar of Enoch Ministry
Ministry Site: http://pillar-of-enoch.com
From Helena’s blog:
The following article surrounds the recap of a dialogue that went on between me and a dear friend and Sister in Christ that concerned a wonderful, vivid dream that she had. This dream was clearly prophetic, and that is why she felt led to share it with me.
9/10/2015 - My Friend’s Dream
Hi Helena. I wanted to share a dream I had last night. Please know there is no pressure of expectation for an interpretation.... I'm only sharing because I feel led by the Holy Spirit. Blessings and favor to you in Jesus our Savior and bridegroom king!
I dreamed I was standing outside of a very tall building at least 100 stories high. I could see many elevators were attached to the outside walls. Most of the elevators were going up and down. A few were moving horizontally. I went inside the building and found an elevator that was going up. I knew I wanted to get on it. The door opened and I got in with just a few other people. There were more people who wanted to get on but I thought to myself, “No that would make the elevator too full.” And as I had that thought, the door closed.
When the door opened again I knew we had arrived at the penthouse of the building. We were greeted by a man who looked to be in his 40s or 50s. He was fit and had short brown, curly hair. I knew somehow that this man was our father (me and the other people who were on the elevator) He showed us around the Penthouse. It was minimally decorated and all I saw was the kitchen/entertainment area and a ballroom. Then he showed us a very large (roof) outdoor space. That area had only a lawn and a few shrubs. I asked him, “Can I make a garden out here anyway that I would like?” and he said, “of course you can.” Then I noticed he was wearing a light blue shirt that had a rose flower brocade woven into the fabric. I told him I really liked his shirt.
The scene changed. I was coming out of a classroom at the lobby level of the same building. I and the others in my class were glad to be let out early at 9PM instead of 9:15 which was the time the class was supposed to be over. But, we were excited about the class so we all sat down together at an empty table to chat with each other. The lobby was filled with other tables where other students, not in our class, sat. I spoke first. I said that after having a secular education and secular job for so long I was thrilled to be taking classes that would train me to work for Jesus. The other people at my table agreed. Some people at the other tables overheard us and laughed at us and called us lame. I decided it was time to start home. I looked at my watch. It was now approx. 9:23 (after 9:20 and before 9:25)
End of dream.
9/17/2015 – My (Helena’s) Spirit-led Dream Interpretation:
What a great prophetic dream, sister! Thank you for sharing it with me. As for what it means, I inquired of God, and the following is what the Holy Spirit has given me in interpretation, which I find very exciting and hopeful:
First of all, the lofty building with 100 stories is tied to the Kingdom of God. But it’s more than that. It represents the Tabernacle of Moses and David, which had high walls made of 100 cubits of white fabric each on the North and South sides. This means the Tabernacle was 100 Cubits long. So the 100-story high building ties in to that. Cool, eh? :-) Now here’s more...
Since the building signifies the Tabernacle, the Penthouse signifies the Most Holy Place beyond the veil inside the Tabernacle’s central tent. This space is where the Ark of the Covenant representing Yahshua was kept, so it also corresponds to Heaven, where Yahshua is now, and where we will dwell with God, and will be given our own homes and outdoor spaces to fix up any way that we like after the Rapture. As a symbol of Heaven, the Penthouse Ballroom is where the Wedding Supper of the Lamb will take place! ;-) With this in mind, it becomes clear that the elevator going up with only a few on it with you was a sign that the Rapture will be very small, and so many in the Church who are not living for Christ or repentant of their sins will be left behind.
Likewise, the class you were taking is an analogy for our lives after we are born again, for whatever we do on this earth before the Rapture for God is part of the wealth of lessons we are being taught, and the spiritual gifts we are receiving under the Holy Spirit’s tutelage. Meanwhile, the Main or Lobby floor of the building signifies the entrance to the Tabernacle, and the table that you sat at signifies the altar just inside the Tabernacle entrance, which represents Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross for our sins! So your table signifies the gathering place of the Wise Virgins that are attuned to Christ and His Kingdom, and love serving Him. Awesome, eh?
In your dream, you are sitting with others like you at a table signifying an Altar to God. These are believers that have a right attitude in desiring to serve Him. But woe to the people sitting at the other table that mocked you, for they signify the Foolish Virgins in the Laodicean or Lukewarm Church that think they’re right with God even though they’re not serving Him, but themselves. These foolish ones are sadly ripe for the terrible Judgment that’s coming, yet they are smugly unconcerned and oblivious to it.
Now, here’s my interpretation of the times you saw on your watch. If I’m right in my interpretation of them, these may be the BEST part of the dream…
Getting out of class early - at 9 pm instead of 9:15 - is a sign that we are in the 9th hour representing JUDGMENT right now. Furthermore, it suggests that our time of learning new spiritual lessons on this earth will come to a close 9-15, or September of 2015.
When you glanced down at your watch again, and thought it was time to go home, I was given the strong impression that this meant that it was time to go home to be with Yahshua. Even better, the time on the clock was 9-23, which could correspond to a rapture date of Sept.23rd, this year, 2015.
Maranatha and God bless you!
Helena
Now, after sharing my dream interpretation on September 17th with the sister who shared the dream, she shared the following:
“Helena, I wanted to show you a photo of a new library on my son's campus. We visited it last Saturday (i.e. on 9-12-2015), just after my dream (which was on 9-10-2015). The building is just 3 stories high but you can imagine my shock when my son took us up to the 3rd floor, and when we stepped out of the stairwell - we saw this - the grass right outside of the window is on the roof! Eventually, it will be a garden terrace. But the building is so new it just isn't finished yet. It looks (although a bit smaller) just like the roof garden in my dream!
Also there’s a stone bench just outside the new library with the inscription “I will be with you always, to the end of time. - Matthew 28:20”. Now, if that isn’t the most beautiful dream tie-in to reality, I don’t know what is. :-) Oh Helena, I hope that the Rapture is this year. But I’m uncertain. Yes, I agree that the dream was about meeting God after the Rapture.... I'm just not certain about the year. The 9-23 may correspond to the month and year of September 2023.”
Now, I’ve no doubt that the dream my friend shared with me was prophetic, especially with the fact that she saw a grassy rooftop space very much like the one in her dream on a School Library rooftop a few days after she had the dream, and without knowing anything about it beforehand. But whether my interpretation of my friend’s dream is 100 percent correct or not remains to be seen. After all, for now, we mortals “see through a glass, darkly” (1 Cor. 13:12).
With that said, I want to let you all know that I’m 99 percent sure that most of the interpretation that I was given of the dream was Spirit-led, and is correct. But numbers have never been my forte, so there is some ambiguity in my mind about the date correlations with the times shown on my friend’s wrist watch. So let’s not get our hopes up too high. We all have to realize that our honest interpretations of dreams, like our interpretations of Scripture, are not always perfect. In the meantime, let’s hope and pray that we will be counted worthy to be taken up to Heaven in the Rapture whenever it may be, and that it will be very, very soon. We can only HOPE!
God bless you all, and Maranatha! I Pray we’re Going Home Soon!
10/31/2019 I replied to Helena’s blog: “Helena, I just came across your site. I agree, “what a great prophetic dream”. And I love your interpretation. Except of course for the times, which you have so humbly expounded on. Certainly ‘9’ represents JUDGMENT. But now what if ‘15’ represents years rather than a date. If tribulation should start right after the rapture, and the rapture were to happen in 2023, 8+7=15 - our time of being able to learn new spiritual lessons and still be saved! The revelation that God has given me indicates a Sept.2023 rapture, which corresponds to the going home dream time of 9:23, which your blessed dream friend also suggested!
It’s also quite interesting that the date of your “Interpretation” is 9/17/2015. Sept.17 is the date of the rapture that the Lord has seemingly reveled to me! Moreover, it’s also Rosh Hashanah, the Feast of Trumpets in the year 2023! Moreover, Rosh Hashanah has always been symbolic of the rapture & the resurrection of the dead, and is also known as "the Feast for which you do not know the day or the hour"; it depends on the sighting of the New Moon.” (I’ve expounded on this more fully above under “Conclusions”.)
2/4/19: Three ("3") days after the above posting, we (the web-site) received an Anonymous Guestbook Comment, i.e., "he/she receives a lot of #s, but lately nothing but the #23"! Plus, an amazing rapture dream!!
And, this same day, I received an invitation to a surprise B.D. party, scheduled for 2/23/19!!!
So, does the #23 represent rapture in 2023? Could that be the B.D. of the Raptured Church! Looks logical, but I'm not going to be dogmatic as yet.
Moreover, it seems we have a Mystery! Neither God (or Satan) will verify this hypothesis with a 3rd #23 coincidence. Instead, it seems I was purposely given ?:22 & ?:24 via my clock, but mysteriously absent has been another #23! - Maybe the #23 or 9/23/17 represent something totally different?
2/7/19: Of course before the possible rapture of Rev.12:5, we have Rev.12:3&4, "Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with 7 heads & 10 horns & 7 crowns on his heads." "And the dragon proceeded to pursue the woman". Israel (as well as the whole world) is certainly being threatened by war and satanic forces of all types. This could likely include the war of Psalm 83 or the Ezekiel 38&39 Gog/Magog war against Israel which will likely precede the rapture. - So, maybe the year 2023 is still a good prophetic date, just not necessarily or exclusively for the rapture. In Chapters 2&3 of Revelation, John ends each of his letters to the 7 churches with "To him that overcometh", he will receive heavenly eternal blessings. Thus, it seems likely that the church will not be spared from the birth-pangs & Red Dragon of Rev.12:3&4. Although I'm sure we'll be spared from the main Tribulation. In 2Thess.2:7&8 Paul explains that the "Wicked One", Antichrist, will not be revealed until after the Holy Spirit, i.e., the Church whose members are the Temple of the Holy Spirit, is taken out of the way, presumably, via the Rapture. I'm guessing that this confirmation of our Blessed Hope will act as an encouragement for the Church to minister & witness in this very likely devastating interim period, from now till Rapture. This should likely include much of the 333 community, those who have accepted God's prompting.
2/12/19: Thinking & Praying on the above has possibly yielded the following revelation! The #22, which is the double 11, represents a concentration of Disorder, Disorganization, Disintegration, Chaos, and the likely Corruption of God's Word. Thus it could be alluding to some kind of crisis, possibly in 2022. The middle-east is a cauldron ready to erupt and it might just encompass the whole world. Or, maybe an economic crisis, which has long been projected (see Dream of 2/15/19 below).
The #24 is particularly relevant. It's associated with priesthood. Born-again believers are considered priests. It's also associated with Rev.4:4 and the 24 elders on 24 thrones surrounding the throne of God in heaven. This is the "rapture chapter"! Rev.4:1&2, "I heard a voice like a trumpet say, "come up here". And at once, I (John) was in the spirit and there before me was the thrown of God in heaven".
Additionally, on April 8, 2024 North America will experience a total solar eclipse. It and the total solar eclipse of 2017 (7 yrs earlier & the same year as the Great Sign) will form an ominous "X" over the United States! With the large number of Christians residing in the U.S., that could mean that a rapture in 2023 might result in the demise of the U.S. in 2024!
2/13/19: Today I awoke at 6:23. – Maybe I finally received my 3rd confirmation!?
2/15/19: Today I woke up to "Hay Jack"! No one was there. Clock read 8:33, i.e., New Beginnings : I Promise!
I fell back to sleep & had a Vivid Dream: "Was at a counter with my brother trying to come up with enough money to pay our bill. Money generally in my pocket was not there. But I finally came up with a very crinkled $5 bill! I awoke, the time was 8:53."
Interpretation - No money & crinkled bill could be prophesying bad economic times ahead. $5 could represent 5 years, which would make it 2023. Or the #5 could represent God's Grace. Or maybe the end of God's Grace! 8:53 might be interpreted as - New Beginnings, In 5 years, With God. Maybe Rapture!! That would certainly be God's Grace!
3/4/19: Upon ordering David Jeremiah's The Book of Signs, I noticed my credit card expiration date, 09/23. September 2023!!
3/7/19: Conferred with my step-daughter & spiritual mentor, Bonnie. To her, the #23 immediately brought to mind Psalm 23. It's a Psalm that has served humanity for eons, and yet seems particularly appropriate at this time. You really need to read it. It totally wraps up God's plan, will, & direction for His end-time Saints, - those who can truly say, "The Lord is my Shepherd". Even though we might "walk through the Valley of the Shadow of Death" the Lord will comfort & take care of us, and "we will dwell in the House of the Lord forever". This is truly a personification of the Great 9/23/17 Heavenly Sign of Rev.12 which encompasses birth pains (vs.2), satanic warfare, corruption, etc (vs.3&4), and the Rapture of the Church (vs.5). Wow! What a revelation! It could certainly seem logical that Psalm 23 could be pointing to a 2023 rapture!
And: Just before typing this update, I received the following message from my Computer Cleaning program, "23 programs are slowing your PC"!!
3/23/19: I noted a very good synopsis of Revelation Chapter 12 posted by "Red Moon Rapture" (via Stephanie Dawn)!!
3/28/19: Right after providing the above to pastors at three churches to illicit their thoughts, tonight I received a vivid & disturbing dream. It was in color, which often means it was God driven.
THE DREAM: There's this old light blue bus, not in great condition, for sale on a lot. I (and maybe someone else) open the door & climb aboard. The driver seat is missing. It starts to roll backwards down a steep hill. It's a narrow muddy road with all kinds of obstacles - vehicles, fencing, etc. I tried to drive it, but it's out of control. Brakes barely worked at all. Passing places to pull off but going too fast to safely try. It finally stops at the bottom, an isolated & bit scary spot. We have a small dying, baby alligator. I lay him on a pile of logs. We're concerned for him. There's a small pole with several very small but colorful LED type lights attached. We think that may comfort him. He revives, although still quite weak, and climbs up the light-pole where he calmly rests.
INTERPRETATION: The BUS symbolizes a medium sized ministry. LIGHT BLUE references immature development of a spiritual gift, evil spirit, or corruption. ALLIGATORS symbolize people with "big mouths" who can hurt via lies, rumors, & big tails. (John Paul Jackson – Dreams&Mysteries)
The dream originally seemed to portray a corrupt, false, or misguided ministry or ministry initiative that is heading dangerously backwards, downhill, with no spiritual guidance, which needs to be stopped so that gossip, lies, & false tails can be put to rest via the light of truth. - Scary!
However, after considerable prayer, a clearer picture has emerged. The dream was a manifestation of God portraying my fears of what others, and sometimes myself, are thinking about this controversial ministry, and particularly this 2023 pre-trib rapture hypothesis. I'm convinced that the Lord is telling me that these people who I'm concerned about, represented by the sickly baby alligator, are almost dead when it comes to spiritual end-time &/or rapture wisdom. These, what I've thought of as potentially dangerous people, are really just babes needing to be drawn to the light. And, although this ministry is a bit scary to navigate, it's what God is leading me do. Also, I'm absolutely sure that it is no coincidence that this dream was given me at the same time as this crazy 2023 rapture revelation is manifesting itself and I am trying to reach out to others for some kind of acknowledgment, guidance, or corroboration. Thank You Lord!
4/3/19: Received a Guestbook Comment from Mike - "God is calling His children. We are the Watchmen on the wall and it is our duty to spread the great news of His redeeming love and salvation through His son Jesus. Numbers I see the most - 23, 123, 223, 323, & 333. God wakes me up regularly at 3AM, gives me messages to deliver and dreams to work through. The more we become sensitive to these callings the more He uses us. I have so many occurrences and messages with seeing these numbers that it is no coincidence. My wife had a Vision about the year 2023 but nothing specifically related to that. Of course I never want to assume that we know when Jesus is coming back, but we always need to be prepared. Just like a thief in the night. It may drive you crazy sometimes with the amount of times you see these numbers, but it is just God knocking on the door of your heart. Let Him in! Email me with any questions or concerns. God is great!" Mbmannurseman@hotmail.com
Watchman Mike, Wow! Concerning your #23s - this continues to be an amazing & controversial revelation or elaborate satanic hoax! As you can imagine, we're dealing with something very important here. And we have to be very discerning. Like you say, such things can drive a person crazy! God bless your continued watchfulness.
4/12/19: Still praying for revelation. Today, watching my favorite TV Bible teacher, Les Feldick, he mentioned the #23, 3 times!!! Absolutely amazing! And even moreso because this program was originally aired in the mid 1990s! Moreover, the scriptures couldn't be more appropriate at this time! So very Rapture oriented!
1) 1Thess.5:23 - Has to do with the coming of our Lord.
2) John 12:23 - "The hour has come when the Son of Man should be glorified."
3) Romans Chapter 23 - Amazingly, he mis-spoke; there is no Chapter 23 in Romans. He was actually referencing Chapter 3 which has to do with salvation.
4/17/19: It just so happens that for the past few weeks my Sunday School class has been studying the Old Testament Book of Esther. Serendipitously, I just so happened to come across this book, The Mystery of Esther - God's Prophetic Plan and later, Prophecies in the Book of Esther. They reveal the underlying epic & prophetic end-time story having to do with Satan's unending goal of killing all the Jews. Keep in mind that the Book of Esther depicts real people in real events. On another level however, these real people are actors in a drama created & inspired by God. They are acting out past, present, & future events as illustrated in the Bible. Queen Esther (who is symbolic of the Church, including born-again Jews), with the guidance of Mordecai (symbolic of Jesus), issued an "Edict", authorized by the King (symbolic of God), which appoints a day for the Jews to assemble, protect themselves, & destroy their enemies. The Edict was sent out on the 23rd day of the 3rd month, the month of Sivan (our May/June). This is in Chapter 8 & verse 9, (8=New Beginnings & 9=Judgment). The historic Book of Esther goes on to chronicle the defeat of Haman the Jew-hatter (who is symbolic of Satan & Antichrist) and all of the Jews enemies. Interestingly, like the Dragon of Rev.12:3&4 which had ten horns (which represent leaders of nations), so Haman had ten sons, who were likewise defeated & killed.
Are there truths in the Book of Esther that are relevant for us today? Does God have a message that He has chosen to reveal, only now, in these last days? Could the revelation of Esther be God's final instruction to His people? Did God give us this date of the 23rd as a clue similar to that of the Rev.12 Great Sign date of 9/23/17? Are they pointing to the year 2023? I'm leaning towards yes!
We're told that Esther became the king's bride & queen in the 7th year of his reign, another perfect eschatological picture of Jesus & His bride during the 7th millennium. Delving farther into the Book of Esther, Chapter 8:16&17 tells us that everywhere the Edict of the 23rd went it was “a time of happiness & joy, gladness & honor, with feasting & celebrating" by God's people. This could be likened to a rapture celebration similar to that of Revelation Chapters 4&5 when the Church is raptured and Jesus assumes Kingship, which triggers the forthcoming death knell of God's enemies. Moreover, Mordecai (personifying Jesus), was given a Kings crown, remnant, & prominence, just as Jesus will ultimately be crowned & reign preeminent on earth after the rapture & tribulation, (Rev.14:14). Esther 8:17b goes on to say that "many people of other nations became Jews (believers) because fear of the Jews seized them". Again, sounds like the tremendous revival that will surely happen right after the rapture! Thus it seems to me that the Book of Esther is truly prophetic and in light of the significance of the Rev.12 Great Sign, it similarly foreshadows the Rapture in 2023!!
Even more significant, searching scripture, I’m amazed at how often God seems to show us how he feels about the monumental & glorious events that involve the numbers 16&17. First, looking at Bible Numerology, the #16 represents “Love” and the #17, being the combination of two perfect #s, 7&10, represents “Divine Completion”. Throughout the Bible there are just so many scriptures that associate the #s 16&17 with a rapture type experience & salvation:
1) 1Thes.4:16&17 is the prominent & most important scripture pointing to our rapture, – “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, & with the trump of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise first." "Then we which are alive & remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air."
2) 1Cor.15:16&17 is the 2nd most prominent, – “If the dead are not raised, then Christ has not been raised either.” “And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile.” Moreover, verses 22 thru 24 seem to spell out a possible 2022, 2023, 2024 rapture timeline: 22-"For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive.” 23-"But each in his own turn: Christ, the first fruits; then, when he comes, those that belong to him.” & 24-"Then the end will come.” Verses 51&52 go on to say “Listen I tell you a mystery: we shall not all sleep (die), but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump.”
3) Exodus 3:16&17 – “The Lord appeared to me and said” “I have promised to bring you up out of your misery in Egypt.”
4) Daniel 3:16&17 – “Shadrack, Meshack, & Abednego replied to the king, "we do not need to defend ourselves before you.” “The God we serve is able to save us, he will rescue us from your hand O king.”
5) Malachi 3:16&17 – “concerning those who fear the Lord & honor his name.” “They will be mine, says the Lord Almighty, my treasured possession, on the day that I act. I will spare them, just as in compassion a man spares his son who serves him.”
6) John 3:16&17 – “For God so loved the world …” “to save the world through Him.”
7) Philemon – This is Paul’s final epistle directed primarily to the Gentiles before Tribulation. It’s a portrait of the rapture. Verse 16 – “no longer a slave, but a dear brother.” Verse 17 – “So welcome him as you would welcome me.”
8) Rev.6:16&17 – “Hide us from the wrath of the Lamb!” “For the great day of his wrath has come.”
9) Rev.7:16&17 – “Never again shall they hunger or thirst.” “For the Lamb will be their Shepard & shall wipe away every tear.”
10) Rev.22:16&17 – “I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches.” “The Spirit & the bride say “Come!” And let him who hears say “Come!” Whoever is thirsty, let him come; let him take the free gift of the water of life.”
Also, concerning the #17: 1) The 2nd banquet of Queen Esther which resulted in the initiation of the Edict of the 23rd and the hanging of evil Hamon,& his 10 sons was on the 17th of Nisan. 2) Noah & the ark. Noah & his family were saved, lifted high above the devastating flood, essentially raptured, on the 17th day of the 2nd month! And then amazingly, after carrying the believers through the judgment, it came to rest on the mountains of Ararat on the 17th day of the 7th month! - In Math.24:37 Jesus said, "As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man". 3) Psalm 23 also has an uncanny relationship to the #17! There are 17 references in the Psalm to the believer & particularly in connection with the doctrine of assurance & security in Christ. 4) The relevance of the #17 is scripturally represented in two particular passages where we have 7 negatives vs 10 positives. a) Romans 8:35-39, “What can separate us from the love of Christ? - Nothing!”. b) Hebrews 12:18-24, the Old vs the New dispensations are contrasted; both of these scriptures could personify a rapture. 5) Finally, we also have the #17 incorporated in the date of the Great Rev.12 Sign itself, 9/23/17. By a simple transposition type decipherization, we have Sept.17, 2023!! Like a sign hidden in plain sight! But without the preponderance of underlying revelation that God has miraculously orchestrated, it stood naked of any real significance. Thus I believe a mystery has been revealed at a time chosen by God. And it has got to refer to the rapture! What else could it be! God is amazing!!
Referring back to Queen Esther's Edict of the 23rd, a specific date for the destruction of the enemies of the Jews was given. It was the 13th day of the 12th month (the month of Adar, which is generally March on the Civil calendar). The celebration of Purim is celebrated to this day in commemoration. At this time also, Mordecai (the personification of Jesus) "went out from the presence of the King in royal robes and a large crown of gold and reigned supreme over all the land". This all transpires in the 9th chapter of Esther. Again, Bible Numerology associates the #9 with Divine Judgment & Finality. This of course corresponds perfectly with the Judgments of Tribulation and the resulting manifestation of the 1000 year reign of Christ, as King, & his Church. - It's possible that this date, the 13th day of the 12th month, is also prophetic. However, it could just be symbolic; the #13 represents "the # of ill-omen, Rebellion, & Revolution" and the #12 signifies "the Perfection of Divine Government". This is perfectly logical. It's also possible that the time period between the Edict of the 23rd of Sivan (which personifies the rapture) and the 13th of Adar (which personifies the Tribulation) could be alluding to an 8+ month (or maybe years) period between the Rapture & Tribulation. Of course the actual date of the Tribulation (or Day of the Lord) is a secret only God the Father knows.
One day the Jew & Jewish nation will also appreciate the Book of Esther as not only historic but prophetic as well. One day Zechariah 12:10 will manifest, "they shall look upon Me whom they have pierced and shall mourn for Him as one morneth for his only son". And then they will celebrate & rejoice as God delivers them from their enemies as he did in the time of Esther. I'm thinking we're getting very close to this time. And a rapture would certainly help seal the deal!
4/19/19 (Good Friday & Passover): Googling the #23 yielded a surprising result. It is often described as the # of incident. Many historic events can be found to have a connection to the #23. Belief in these connections is known as the 23 Enigma. Some people are obsessed with it. In addition to the Great Sign of 9/23/17 and the Book of Esther's ominous Edict date, we have the following:
1) As noted above, the most famous Psalm, 23, is ominous as well as hopeful.
2) The 1st Morse Code transmission, "What has God wrought!", is from Numbers 23:23. (Recall that Mr.Morse, surely via God's inspiration, gave us our SOS/333 warning!).
3) Julius Caesar was supposedly stabbed 23 times.
4) William Shakespeare was born & died on April 23rd.
5) The numbers of the infamous date 9-11-2001 add to 23.
6) The Hiroshima bomb was dropped at 8:15 am. 8+15=23.
7) The Titanic sank on 4-15-1912. The #s add to 23.
8) Saddam Hussein was hung 12-30-2006. The #s add to 23.
9) Jezebel is mentioned 23 times in the Bible.
10) Charles Darwin's Origin of Species was published in 1859 = 23.
11) The human cell generally contains 23 pairs of chromosomes.
12) "W" is the 23rd letter of the English alphabet. On the normal computer keyboard, it's right below & between 2 & 3.
As seen, there is certainly something supernatural about the #23 and most have an ominous connotation. It's like God has reserved this # for monumental events, of which the Rapture just may be the ultimate!!
Interestingly, we note also that the Book of Revelation ends with Chapter 22. Possibly there is no Chapter 23 because 23 is representative of the Church which has been raptured in Chapter 4. Moreover, the Book of Revelation itself is a monumental event; "it is finished"!
4/25/19: More Verification. This morning after praying about this 2023 hypothesis, my heater kicked on at 10:42. The #10 signifies "The Perfection of Divine Order" or "The # and Order are Perfect". The #42 is Antichrist's number. I'm thinking this is verification that this 2023 hypothesis is on track and that Antichrist will likely be revealed in 2023. 2Thes.2:3 says - Tribulation will not come until there is a falling away (or departure) and Antichrist is revealed. Verses 7&8 go on to say - Antichrist won't be revealed until after the Holy Spirit (the Church) is taken out of the way (raptured).
4/27/19: Just read an article in Prophecy in the News. Leviticus Chapter 23 talks of God's 7 Feasts. Four have already manifested prophetically. Rosh Hashana, also known as the Feast of Trumpets, is next on the list. This is a 2 day celebration similar to the 2 day celebration of Purim in the Book of Esther. Both foreshadow the rapture of the Church!! - Moreover, Rosh Hashanah is one of the "Fall" feasts and the following scripture verifies or at least strongly alludes to a Pre-Tribulation 'Fall' Rapture and the resulting dread & horror that the world will be facing during the Great Tribulation.
Micah 7:1-6: "Woe is me! For I am as when they have gathered the summer fruits, at the gleaning of the vineyard. (Grapes in Israel are harvested August - October). The good (godly) have perished (vanished) out of the earth: no upright person remains. All men lie in wait to shed blood... to do evil. The day of thy visitation has come."
4/27/19: Received a Guestbook Comment from Lindsey / Iowa, USA. - "I’m almost 9 mos pregnant and woke up from a contraction. Afterward, I couldn’t quite sleep and was messaging a missionary in Africa. I ended my message to this dear one with “it’s 3:33am and should try to rest” - then felt a prompting I should look up bible verses with that combination and found this site. The Lord tends to speak to me in dreams but this was my first 333 - Just thought I’d share."
Lindsey, So glad you did. This being your 1st 333 & being 9 months pregnant & this being the 27th is another verification (actually 3 in 1) that ties in perfectly with what the Lord seems to be showing us, - that the Church's delivery/rapture is very close, right at the door! You are now an integral part of this crazy 2023 rapture hypothesis! Blessings.
Note: The #27 is 3 cubed. This expresses the concentrated essence of the #3 which signifies Divine Completeness or Perfection. There are 27 books in the New Testament. This represents the Completion of God's Word to mankind and the end of the world as we know it.
5/6/19: Another huge coincidence - I have 5 years of "Thru the Bible with J. Vernon McGee" on a zip drive that I listen to when driving. Today he finished Nehemiah and just started teaching the Book of Esther! - which we are just now finishing up in our Sunday School class!
5/7/19: Guestbook Comment by Amy. "Today I woke up at 2 am to a train horn (which registered in my mind as a horn, not a whistle). I couldn't get back to sleep. Soon after I heard a different train sound its horn. I live in a "no whistle" zone so if the train sounds there is a problem. Then I heard a 3rd train sound its horn and quickly looked at the clock, 3:33. Immediately I knew I was supposed to walk to the tracks- 3 blocks- and pray over them. As this isn't a great idea in my neighborhood, I was reluctant but I felt an urgent calling so I did and prayers began to flow over the whole neighborhood as I walked there and back. When I got back home, I received words for two people. I had been at the first day of a conference on May 6th and both individuals were at the same conference (2 day conference totally unrelated to religion). I gave them the words. Both messages involved expansion of Biblical leadership and messengers. After the conference, they found me and both messages had happened during the day. When I got home, just now, I searched for "Biblical meaning of 3:33" and found this site. I was incredibly amazed when I saw the connection to your dream of locomotives. A total of 5 horns sounded during the night from the time I woke up and then I heard 5 trains pass with no horns."
Amy, You know, you're likely making many people envious of your faith & intimacy with the Holy realm! Your 5 horns experience reminds me of the dreams interpreted by Joseph in Genesis Chapter 41 having to do with 7 good years followed by 7 bad years. Let us know if you should find an interpretation.
5/12/19 - Amy, this morning I received the following: The #5 represents Grace. We are in the Age of Grace. Like the 333/SOS & other ministries (trains), we are warning people (blowing our horns). This is going to stop. Maybe in 5 years, 2023. WOW!!!
Also - Concerning the #5, see my dream of 2/15/19.
5/25/19: Guestbook Comment by Carolyn Brumley. "This is the first time to your site after seeing 333 on my clock today. I've had a rollercoaster life spiritually. Only until the end of 2015 was I truly awakened and called to serve God more fully. I began to have dreams and visions increasing during 2016. I had a recent vision of a large "23" on the ground. It was a week before May 21-22 which had been all over you-tube. Do you have insight on how 23 might be significant now, even though May 23, 2019 has past?"
Carolyn, I love your testimony. About the "23", it seems that it's another conformation of what the Lord's been revealing to me. And it sounds like you're ready!
5/29/19: Headline News: "FOR FIRST TIME IN REGATHERED ISRAEL’S HISTORY, A DULY-ELECTED PRIME MINISTER FAILS TO FORM A COALITION TRIGGERING AN UNPRECEDENTED REPEAT ELECTION ON SEPTEMBER 17". It would seem God is right on time with one more amazing verification!! And from Israel no less!! How profoundly appropriate! Moreover, what more important "ELECTION" could one make than that of choosing Jesus and thus the "Rapture". What a phenomenal end-time message!
CONCLUSIONS - Sept.16&17, 2023 RAPTURE: The multitude of coincidences & synchronicity of the above happenings & corroborating comments within such a short time frame are nothing less than supernatural. I am convinced that God did indeed orchestrate all of this. I am not a man of degrees like many theologians. If all this weren't just layed out like on a silver platter, I would never have been able to piece it all together. This is totally a God thing! Moreover, I believe this 2022-2023-2024 rapture scenario has been overwhelmingly supported by scripture, particularly the Rev.12 Great Sign, the Book of Esther, Micah 7:1-6, & the profound significance of all the Verses 16&17 number combinations. There is now absolutely no doubt in my mind that God wants this date, September 16&17, 2023, made known & set in stone! Although, some people will complain, "but nobody is to know the day or hour!” That applies to the "the Day of the Lord" specifically, which this is not. The Day of the Lord is a horrendous time! (See below "But Nobody Knows!") - Moreover, although this may or may not be relevant, if God prophesied Christ's 1st coming, even to the day, (Daniel 9:25), why wouldn't he make his 2nd advent known? God does keep it somewhat veiled in scripture, just like that of Jesus' 1st coming, but they really should have known!
And now for the frosting on the cake. As noted above, every Biblical Feast links up with a prophetic event, and the next event on the prophetic calendar is Rosh Hashanah / The Feast of Trumpets. It's one of the most important holidays on the Jewish calendar. It’s a two-day celebration that begins on the 1st day of Tishrei. Coinciding secular dates vary from mid-September to early October. Not surprisingly, in 2023 it will be celebrated on Sept. 16&17!!! Moreover, Rosh Hashanah has always been symbolic of the rapture & the resurrection of the dead, and is also known as "the Feast for which you do not know the day or the hour"; it depends on the sighting of the New Moon.
Rosh Hashanah is also known as the “Day of Judgment”. The ten days, the Days of Awe, from Rosh Hashanah to Yom Kippur are known as the High Holy Days, the most sacred time of the Jewish year. Because Rosh Hashanah is the “Day of Judgment”, awe & dread are a part of its message. Each day of the preceding month a shofar is blown to warn the people that Rosh Hashanah is approaching. In addition to the theme of awakening and a call to repent, the sounding of the shofar is associated with a message to prepare for the coming of the Messiah, get ready to meet the Lord. According to Jewish scholars, the day of Rosh Hashanah involves the sounding of the Last Trump, such as mentioned in 1Cor.15:52. – So, is this a supernatural verification of the day of the rapture?!! I'm leaning towards definitely!! And what better sign to the Jew than this happening on one of their most holy feast days. God is absolutely amazing!!!
So, we have the year and the day of our soon coming rapture, now what about the hour. Of course it would depend on where you live, but I believe daybreak in God’s Holy City Jerusalem would certainly be the most logical. In eastern USA, (my time zone), that would be 7hrs & one calendar day earlier. And thus we have the 16&17 combination that Rosh Hashanah incorporates! This in itself is more proof of God's profound handiwork in that He established Rosh Hashanah as a two day celebration! God is omnipotent!! And the Bible is indeed His supernatural & trustworthy handbook for humanity.
I realize that setting a date is a profound step and I certainly don't feel qualified to be the one receiving or purveying these revelations. Moreover, friends & family would agree; most have been quite skeptical. Still working on that. All I can hang my hat on is that God has often used the lowly to manifest his glory. Hopefully someone of stature will pick up on this, receive corroborating revelation, and be able to spread the word. I'm thinking this is really God's prerogative & responsibility.
The question will also be asked, “Why now? Firstly, God certainly would not want to reveal this too far in advance. That would simply result in complacency. For it to have been made known to the apostles would have negated the immanency factor for 2000 years of Christians! However, now that it is really immanent, I'm guessing God does want to warn people and moreover, give them enough time to get to know him so they might possibly get their name included in the Book of Life. I’m guessing it could be something similar to why God sent the apostle Paul to the wilderness for a 3year training course after Jesus revealed himself to him. It takes time to really get to know God/Jesus after ones been steeped in the world for so long! Secondly, as mentioned above, why give Satan any advantage in the promotion of his deceptive counter attack! What a glorious, mind-changing, faith-promoting, spectacular, glorious God-event it would be if His children knew and were awaiting the day, - and it happened!! Wow!! What a profound witness to the world & unbelievers!! Imagine the credence & glory this would manifest to God and at the same time so greatly diminish & undermine the false explanation that Satan will be putting forth! It would also be nice that we wouldn't have all that death & destruction caused by vanishing Christians in car & plane crashes!! Most would probably be gathered in churches. Moreover, afterward, what a marvelous & tremendous potential for mass revival!!
A quote from Dr. Jeremiah's The Book of Signs, - "The more vividly aware we are of His impending return, the more we'll be motivated in our work for Him in these last days". Now understand, this is in no way his endorsement of any kind of date setting, however it does acknowledge that knowing how close we are to His gathering us together with Him should illicit confidence, hope, and a renewed sense of purpose. Similarly, the beloved evangelist, Luis Palau recently commented, "The coming of Jesus Christ is really a big deal! Unbelievers are often more interested than people who read the Bible. Politicians, business-people, people who use their brains, they mostly all want to know, 'what's the end of all this? What's the climax of history? What is before us?' They want to know! It's a major part of the Gospel message!" How much more of an impact if the immanency of his return is expressly associated with a very near coming date!
Moreover, revealing the timing of our "blessed hope" would give his children a loving warning & heads-up to "prepare", certainly spiritually and possibly materially, as well as providing needed incentive to persevere. War &/or economic collapse may likely precede the rapture. It might be good to have some kind of cash reserve as well as some extra food, water, fuel, etc. And we need this time to minister & witness. We really need to let our friends & family know (along with the Jewish Nation) that if we should suddenly disappear, they will really need to take this Jesus stuff seriously. After the rapture, most people are going to be deceived by Satan's wondrous signs & miracles. You don't want your family & friends to be among them. Hell is no place to spend eternity! Born-again believers are going to be the only light in a world of great darkness. Moreover, like Stephen & many others, they (and possibly we) may be called upon to be martyrs for the glory of God. Are you ready? Is your family ready? Hopefully most of us will simply be raptured. Praise God!
The Church really needs to make this a priority. There are millions of on-the-fence Christians out there who need to be introduced to the truth of the Rapture in order to be able to refute the lies & deception that Satan will manifest to cover up the truth. Satan's explanation of the mass exodus will be in total opposition to the Rapture. It will include lying wonders, signs, & counterfeit miracles that will deceive most of the world (as chronicled in Math.24:24, 2Thes.2:9&10, & Rev.13:13&14). What better & more loving investment could we make than providing for the ultimate salvation of millions of souls, including the Jews, after the Rapture.
Of course, many will fear embarrassment and question, "what if the Rapture doesn't happen as projected?" Good thought, but, surely we cannot let this last very great sign of God be for naught! We need to exercise faith. We need to acknowledge God's will. - His desire that all people should be saved and come to a knowledge of the truth. And certainly, if nothing else, we need to at least be preaching the "Blessed Hope", the pre-trib Rapture, (see Titus:2:13 and "The Pre-Trib Rapture" below).
7/6/19: Yesterday I finished the above update linking Rosh Hashanah to the 2023 Rapture hypothesis which I posted today. This morning God honored me by waking me at 5:23 am. Thank You Lord!
I also need to thank Joseph Good of Hatikva Ministries for two books, Prophecies in the Book of Esther & Rosh HaShanah & the Messianic Kingdom to Come, which were invaluable in my research.
10/2/2019: Guestbook Comment from Neil / Australia. - "333 and 1111 since 2017. Hi, I feel compelled to let you know about a funny little instance that just happened, make of it what you will... Just found your website tonight after feeling another strong pull to connect with God on a higher level. I've been hesitant to join religion thus far, but would like to, just a bit lost in what to trust. While reading through 'God's End-Time SOS' I reached the end of the first part of 'End-Time Signs'. Realizing I had become caught up reading and it was surely late I went to look at the time, 11:23pm...I was a bit disappointed I didn't see 11:11.... That was until I continued reading into the next part, 'A Personal Hypothesis - Rapture Rosh Hashanah 2023'. Wowzers...really, hahaha!! Then when deciding to type this, I noticed the date just changed from the 2nd to the 3rd of October, and my battery is at 23%. Hmmmmm!! - Any advice on where a non religious person should start would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time and great website, I look forward to reading the rest. All the best, Neilh80@live.com Ps. 12:23am!!
Neil, Yes, Wowzers! And a blessing for me as well as yourself. I do sympathize with your trust issues; there are so many questionable teachings & churches out there! But it would seem that God is certainly trying to help you connect with Him. By this time you've probably already read my advice on the 'Salvation' page.
Somewhat along this line, a fantasy thought, - seeing as you and Pastor Cioccolanti of Discover Ministries (noted in 'End-Time Signs' above) are of Australia, wouldn't it be a huge 'coincidence' if you were both of the same area! If that (Discover Church, Glen Waverly VIC) could be your church! If he could be the one destined to make known this Sept.17,2023 rapture mystery! - May the Lord continue to bless your walk.
A PROPHETIC RAPTURE DREAM
10/31/2019 – In an effort to find out if God might be revealing this 2023 Rapture date to others, I googled “Rapture Sept. 2023”. Amazingly, directly below my web-site listing was an older (2015) listing by http://pillarofenoch.blogspot.com
Helena Lehman of The Pillar of Enoch Ministry
Ministry Site: http://pillar-of-enoch.com
From Helena’s blog:
The following article surrounds the recap of a dialogue that went on between me and a dear friend and Sister in Christ that concerned a wonderful, vivid dream that she had. This dream was clearly prophetic, and that is why she felt led to share it with me.
9/10/2015 - My Friend’s Dream
Hi Helena. I wanted to share a dream I had last night. Please know there is no pressure of expectation for an interpretation.... I'm only sharing because I feel led by the Holy Spirit. Blessings and favor to you in Jesus our Savior and bridegroom king!
I dreamed I was standing outside of a very tall building at least 100 stories high. I could see many elevators were attached to the outside walls. Most of the elevators were going up and down. A few were moving horizontally. I went inside the building and found an elevator that was going up. I knew I wanted to get on it. The door opened and I got in with just a few other people. There were more people who wanted to get on but I thought to myself, “No that would make the elevator too full.” And as I had that thought, the door closed.
When the door opened again I knew we had arrived at the penthouse of the building. We were greeted by a man who looked to be in his 40s or 50s. He was fit and had short brown, curly hair. I knew somehow that this man was our father (me and the other people who were on the elevator) He showed us around the Penthouse. It was minimally decorated and all I saw was the kitchen/entertainment area and a ballroom. Then he showed us a very large (roof) outdoor space. That area had only a lawn and a few shrubs. I asked him, “Can I make a garden out here anyway that I would like?” and he said, “of course you can.” Then I noticed he was wearing a light blue shirt that had a rose flower brocade woven into the fabric. I told him I really liked his shirt.
The scene changed. I was coming out of a classroom at the lobby level of the same building. I and the others in my class were glad to be let out early at 9PM instead of 9:15 which was the time the class was supposed to be over. But, we were excited about the class so we all sat down together at an empty table to chat with each other. The lobby was filled with other tables where other students, not in our class, sat. I spoke first. I said that after having a secular education and secular job for so long I was thrilled to be taking classes that would train me to work for Jesus. The other people at my table agreed. Some people at the other tables overheard us and laughed at us and called us lame. I decided it was time to start home. I looked at my watch. It was now approx. 9:23 (after 9:20 and before 9:25)
End of dream.
9/17/2015 – My (Helena’s) Spirit-led Dream Interpretation:
What a great prophetic dream, sister! Thank you for sharing it with me. As for what it means, I inquired of God, and the following is what the Holy Spirit has given me in interpretation, which I find very exciting and hopeful:
First of all, the lofty building with 100 stories is tied to the Kingdom of God. But it’s more than that. It represents the Tabernacle of Moses and David, which had high walls made of 100 cubits of white fabric each on the North and South sides. This means the Tabernacle was 100 Cubits long. So the 100-story high building ties in to that. Cool, eh? :-) Now here’s more...
Since the building signifies the Tabernacle, the Penthouse signifies the Most Holy Place beyond the veil inside the Tabernacle’s central tent. This space is where the Ark of the Covenant representing Yahshua was kept, so it also corresponds to Heaven, where Yahshua is now, and where we will dwell with God, and will be given our own homes and outdoor spaces to fix up any way that we like after the Rapture. As a symbol of Heaven, the Penthouse Ballroom is where the Wedding Supper of the Lamb will take place! ;-) With this in mind, it becomes clear that the elevator going up with only a few on it with you was a sign that the Rapture will be very small, and so many in the Church who are not living for Christ or repentant of their sins will be left behind.
Likewise, the class you were taking is an analogy for our lives after we are born again, for whatever we do on this earth before the Rapture for God is part of the wealth of lessons we are being taught, and the spiritual gifts we are receiving under the Holy Spirit’s tutelage. Meanwhile, the Main or Lobby floor of the building signifies the entrance to the Tabernacle, and the table that you sat at signifies the altar just inside the Tabernacle entrance, which represents Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross for our sins! So your table signifies the gathering place of the Wise Virgins that are attuned to Christ and His Kingdom, and love serving Him. Awesome, eh?
In your dream, you are sitting with others like you at a table signifying an Altar to God. These are believers that have a right attitude in desiring to serve Him. But woe to the people sitting at the other table that mocked you, for they signify the Foolish Virgins in the Laodicean or Lukewarm Church that think they’re right with God even though they’re not serving Him, but themselves. These foolish ones are sadly ripe for the terrible Judgment that’s coming, yet they are smugly unconcerned and oblivious to it.
Now, here’s my interpretation of the times you saw on your watch. If I’m right in my interpretation of them, these may be the BEST part of the dream…
Getting out of class early - at 9 pm instead of 9:15 - is a sign that we are in the 9th hour representing JUDGMENT right now. Furthermore, it suggests that our time of learning new spiritual lessons on this earth will come to a close 9-15, or September of 2015.
When you glanced down at your watch again, and thought it was time to go home, I was given the strong impression that this meant that it was time to go home to be with Yahshua. Even better, the time on the clock was 9-23, which could correspond to a rapture date of Sept.23rd, this year, 2015.
Maranatha and God bless you!
Helena
Now, after sharing my dream interpretation on September 17th with the sister who shared the dream, she shared the following:
“Helena, I wanted to show you a photo of a new library on my son's campus. We visited it last Saturday (i.e. on 9-12-2015), just after my dream (which was on 9-10-2015). The building is just 3 stories high but you can imagine my shock when my son took us up to the 3rd floor, and when we stepped out of the stairwell - we saw this - the grass right outside of the window is on the roof! Eventually, it will be a garden terrace. But the building is so new it just isn't finished yet. It looks (although a bit smaller) just like the roof garden in my dream!
Also there’s a stone bench just outside the new library with the inscription “I will be with you always, to the end of time. - Matthew 28:20”. Now, if that isn’t the most beautiful dream tie-in to reality, I don’t know what is. :-) Oh Helena, I hope that the Rapture is this year. But I’m uncertain. Yes, I agree that the dream was about meeting God after the Rapture.... I'm just not certain about the year. The 9-23 may correspond to the month and year of September 2023.”
Now, I’ve no doubt that the dream my friend shared with me was prophetic, especially with the fact that she saw a grassy rooftop space very much like the one in her dream on a School Library rooftop a few days after she had the dream, and without knowing anything about it beforehand. But whether my interpretation of my friend’s dream is 100 percent correct or not remains to be seen. After all, for now, we mortals “see through a glass, darkly” (1 Cor. 13:12).
With that said, I want to let you all know that I’m 99 percent sure that most of the interpretation that I was given of the dream was Spirit-led, and is correct. But numbers have never been my forte, so there is some ambiguity in my mind about the date correlations with the times shown on my friend’s wrist watch. So let’s not get our hopes up too high. We all have to realize that our honest interpretations of dreams, like our interpretations of Scripture, are not always perfect. In the meantime, let’s hope and pray that we will be counted worthy to be taken up to Heaven in the Rapture whenever it may be, and that it will be very, very soon. We can only HOPE!
God bless you all, and Maranatha! I Pray we’re Going Home Soon!
10/31/2019 I replied to Helena’s blog: “Helena, I just came across your site. I agree, “what a great prophetic dream”. And I love your interpretation. Except of course for the times, which you have so humbly expounded on. Certainly ‘9’ represents JUDGMENT. But now what if ‘15’ represents years rather than a date. If tribulation should start right after the rapture, and the rapture were to happen in 2023, 8+7=15 - our time of being able to learn new spiritual lessons and still be saved! The revelation that God has given me indicates a Sept.2023 rapture, which corresponds to the going home dream time of 9:23, which your blessed dream friend also suggested!
It’s also quite interesting that the date of your “Interpretation” is 9/17/2015. Sept.17 is the date of the rapture that the Lord has seemingly reveled to me! Moreover, it’s also Rosh Hashanah, the Feast of Trumpets in the year 2023! Moreover, Rosh Hashanah has always been symbolic of the rapture & the resurrection of the dead, and is also known as "the Feast for which you do not know the day or the hour"; it depends on the sighting of the New Moon.” (I’ve expounded on this more fully above under “Conclusions”.)
But Nobody Knows!
We all are aware that the scriptures tells us: "Nobody knows the day or the hour" and "It will come like a thief in the night". I'm going to expound here on my belief that these do not apply to the Rapture but only to the Day of the Lord, the 7 year Tribulation. Following are the four scriptures that need to be addressed.
1) Matt.24:34-42: After expounding to his disciples about the many tribulations that are going to be coming, and then telling them that "this generation will not pass away until all these things have happened", He says, "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels or even the Son". "As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man." "They knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away." "Therefore keep watch, because you do not know what day your Lord will come."
Certainly it's perfectly clear that Jesus is in no way referring to a rapture. He's talking to his Jewish disciples about the Jewish nation which will be going through the 7 year Tribulation. Moreover, the Church is still future; Jesus hasn't even gone to the cross yet.
2) 1Thess.5:1-5: "You know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night, destruction will come on them suddenly." "But you brothers, are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief." Verse 9 goes on, "For God did not appoint us to wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ who died for us."
Again, this is only talking about the Day of the Lord, the Tribulation. Believers will likely not be surprised because they'll have already been raptured.
3) 2Peter 3:10: "But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar, the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth will be laid bare."
Again, this is only concerning & warning of the Great Tribulation, the horrendous Day of the Lord (Joel 2:31, cited also in Acts 2:20).
4) Rev.3:3: "Remember what you have received, obey it & repent. But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief and you will not know at what time I will come."
Here again, this is a warning of the coming Tribulation. Moreover, it is only directed to non-believers. Right after these warnings to the 7 churches, Chapter 4 starts off with a picture of the Rapture.
Some believe that the rapture & the start of tribulation will be a simultaneous event and are both part of the complex period known as the Day of the Lord. If that were to be true, it would be quite misleading, even heretical, to assume to set a date for the Rapture. But, it is absolutely impossible for the "Blessed Hope", the Rapture, to fit into the definition of the "Day of the Lord". Beyond those that are noted above, there are numerous other scriptures that expound on the horrors of that period. Some believe, as alluded to in the Book of Esther, that there will be a time period, even years, between the two in which much could transpire and many of our friends could come to faith. I'm sure God has his reasons, but scripture remains frustratingly vague or confusing concerning much of this.
The Pre-Tribulation Rapture:
Now that we've addressed the "Day & Hour" issue, we should probably touch on the question of "Season" of the rapture, - Pre, Mid, or Post. In some fringe arenas this is a hotly contested subject. However, the majority of Christian teachers, Bible scholars, etc. do agree that God will not allow his body, the Church of born-again believers, to go through the horrors of the Tribulation, the Day of the Lord.
Supporting scriptures: Isaiah 57:1 "no one understands that the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil." Malachi 3:17-18 “On the day when I act, says the LORD Almighty, they will be my treasured possession. I will spare them, just as a father has compassion and spares his son who serves him.” Luke 21:36 “Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass.” Rom.8:1 "There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." 1Thess.1:10 “wait for his Son, Jesus, who rescues us from the coming wrath.” 1Thess.5:4-9 “For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath, but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.” Rev.3:10 “Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come upon the whole world to test those who live on the earth.” Rev 4:1 “After this I looked, and there before me was a door standing open in heaven.” (John, a possible surrogate for the Church, is translated to heaven before he expounds on the Tribulation. After Rev.3 the Church is never mentioned). The Book of Enoch 1:8 “But to the just he will give peace, and will protect the chosen, and mercy will abide over them.” The Book of Enoch Chapter 62, similar to Rev.12, also talks of “a woman in travail and in pain giving birth"; and "the righteous & elect shall be saved and stand before the Lord on that day.” He goes on to say that “the righteous & elect shall have risen from the earth and those that remain will be terrified and attempt to reconcile with the Lord; but tribulation, God's wrath, will engulf them." Also, per Enoch & Jude 14, “the Lord will be coming with thousands of his holy ones to judge the ungodly.” Amos 5:18-20, "The Day of the Lord will be darkness not light." But, per 1Thes.5:4&5, "believers are not of the darkness, but are all sons of the light." Moreover, think of how God saved his righteous ones, Noah and Lot, before destroying the unrighteous, (2Peter 2:5-9). Also we have Moses and God's chosen people Israel: The Jews in Egypt were protected from the "Death Angel" as they were "past-over" because they were covered by the blood on the door-posts (Exodus Chap.12). Similarly, believers will be protected from God's wrath of the Tribulation because of their belief in Jesus and the sacrificial blood that he shed for them.
We know that the Jews need “signs” (1Cor.1:22). A pre-trib rapture would certainly be a huge sign for them! Rom.11:11 says “Salvation has come unto the Gentiles for to provoke Israel to jealousy.” How could God provoke the Jews to jealousy & promote belief in the Jesus they rejected any better than to take gentile believers to heaven and leave His chosen, but unbelieving Jews, here to face tribulation! And of course it would also be a huge sign for the rest of the world. Of course Satan is going to do all in his power to thwart God’s plans. When the Church is taken out of the world, he & his Antichrist will reign (2Thess.2:7-11). He is the great deceiver! I wonder how he’ll go about negating the significance of this tremendous evangelical miracle of God. I can’t help but think it will have something to do with UFOs, aliens, and very likely the Roman Catholic Church hierarchy.
Naturally, there are going to be many who have been on the fence that will miss the rapture. They’ll no doubt have a choice afterwards, but it will likely be through great tribulation and martyrdom like that of the early Christians. - A warning to those who are not included in the rapture, Rev.14:9 “do not take the mark of the Beast”.
1) Matt.24:34-42: After expounding to his disciples about the many tribulations that are going to be coming, and then telling them that "this generation will not pass away until all these things have happened", He says, "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels or even the Son". "As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man." "They knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away." "Therefore keep watch, because you do not know what day your Lord will come."
Certainly it's perfectly clear that Jesus is in no way referring to a rapture. He's talking to his Jewish disciples about the Jewish nation which will be going through the 7 year Tribulation. Moreover, the Church is still future; Jesus hasn't even gone to the cross yet.
2) 1Thess.5:1-5: "You know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night, destruction will come on them suddenly." "But you brothers, are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief." Verse 9 goes on, "For God did not appoint us to wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ who died for us."
Again, this is only talking about the Day of the Lord, the Tribulation. Believers will likely not be surprised because they'll have already been raptured.
3) 2Peter 3:10: "But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar, the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth will be laid bare."
Again, this is only concerning & warning of the Great Tribulation, the horrendous Day of the Lord (Joel 2:31, cited also in Acts 2:20).
4) Rev.3:3: "Remember what you have received, obey it & repent. But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief and you will not know at what time I will come."

I will spare them, just as a father has compassion and spares his son who serves him.” Luke 21:36 “Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass.” Rom.8:1 "There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." 1Thess.1:10 “wait for his Son, Jesus, who rescues us from the coming wrath.” 1Thess.5:4-9 “For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath, but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.” Rev.3:10 “Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come upon the whole world to test those who live on the earth.” Rev 4:1 “After this I looked, and there before me was a door standing open in heaven.” (John, a possible surrogate for the Church, is translated to heaven before he expounds on the Tribulation. After Rev.3 the Church is never mentioned). The Book of Enoch 1:8 “But to the just he will give peace, and will protect the chosen, and mercy will abide over them.” The Book of Enoch Chapter 62, similar to Rev.12, also talks of “a woman in travail and in pain giving birth"; and "the righteous & elect shall be saved and stand before the Lord on that day.” He goes on to say that “the righteous & elect shall have risen from the earth and those that remain will be terrified and attempt to reconcile with the Lord; but tribulation, God's wrath, will engulf them." Also, per Enoch & Jude 14, “the Lord will be coming with thousands of his holy ones to judge the ungodly.” Amos 5:18-20, "The Day of the Lord will be darkness not light." But, per 1Thes.5:4&5, "believers are not of the darkness, but are all sons of the light." Moreover, think of how God saved his righteous ones, Noah and Lot, before destroying the unrighteous, (2Peter 2:5-9). Also we have Moses and God's chosen people Israel: The Jews in Egypt were protected from the "Death Angel" as they were "past-over" because they were covered by the blood on the door-posts (Exodus Chap.12). Similarly, believers will be protected from God's wrath of the Tribulation because of their belief in Jesus and the sacrificial blood that he shed for them.
We know that the Jews need “signs” (1Cor.1:22). A pre-trib rapture would certainly be a huge sign for them! Rom.11:11 says “Salvation has come unto the Gentiles for to provoke Israel to jealousy.” How could God provoke the Jews to jealousy & promote belief in the Jesus they rejected any better than to take gentile believers to heaven and leave His chosen, but unbelieving Jews, here to face tribulation! And of course it would also be a huge sign for the rest of the world. Of course Satan is going to do all in his power to thwart God’s plans. When the Church is taken out of the world, he & his Antichrist will reign (2Thess.2:7-11). He is the great deceiver! I wonder how he’ll go about negating the significance of this tremendous evangelical miracle of God. I can’t help but think it will have something to do with UFOs, aliens, and very likely the Roman Catholic Church hierarchy.
Naturally, there are going to be many who have been on the fence that will miss the rapture. They’ll no doubt have a choice afterwards, but it will likely be through great tribulation and martyrdom like that of the early Christians. - A warning to those who are not included in the rapture, Rev.14:9 “do not take the mark of the Beast”.
Note: An understanding of the true God-orchestrated origin and meaning of the constellations and signs of the Zodiac can be a real asset to fully understanding the significance of heavenly signs. Overall, except for some humanistic corruption in some cultures, these ancient star-pictures, like Virgo, were designed by God in antiquity to preserve, expound, and perpetuate the one first great promise & prophecy of Genesis 3:15; that all hope for man, all hope for creation, was bound up in a coming Redeemer. These ancient star pictures tell the story of the sufferings of Christ and the glory that will follow. Job 38:32, comes to mind; God asks Job "Can you bring forth the constellations in their seasons?" Actually, now with our computer programs, we can! God created the constellations & signs of the Zodiac in the heavens and He expects us to pay attention and unravel their mysteries. "It's the glory of God to conceal a matter, to search out a matter is the glory of kings." Proverbs 25:2.
As in the Days of Noah
Matthew 24:37 & Luke 17:26 say, "As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. - They knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away." Throughout the Bible God gives us shadow type portrayals or analogies of future events. Certainly the flood represents a foreshadowing of the Tribulation! Of course God first saved the righteous; Noah & his family were lifted above the devastation.
Interestingly, at the start of this ministry, Jan.5,2012, I was given four seemingly prophetic numbers. They all seemed to shout as to the eminent completion of Daniel's week of 7 years, i.e., the tribulation. One of the numbers was 711. The #7 represents God's Spiritual Perfection &/or Completion. The #11 represents Imperfection, Disorder, & Judgment. Both together seem to represent the Great 7 Year Tribulation. However, I've continually thought that there has to be a deeper meaning than just a general reference to the tribulation. But, nothing presented itself. - Then, 7/28 & 8/2/2015; both mornings I was given the #711 again. I investigated and found Geneses 7:11 - "In the 600th year of Noah's life, on the 17th day of the 2nd month, all the springs of the deep burst forth, and the flood gates of the heavens were opened." What a confirmation!
Compounding the significance of these 711 sightings are their dates of occurrence, 7/28 & 8/2.
A) The 7&8 combo represents a very significant Divine or Spiritual change. See Journal entry 1-5-12.
B) 28 & 82! - Coincidence? That would take a pretty big leap of faith!
Note: I can't help think that the date of the flood might contain some kind of clue for the date of the Rapture or Tribulation! But that's for another day. (Which as noted previously, happened in early 2019).

Miscellaneous End-Time Signs & Revelations
In addition to the many, many, prophetic numbers that I originally received in 2012 & 2013 that forecasted the soon coming end-time tribulations that so many people are talking about nowadays, following is a synopsis of the DREAMS etc. that I & others have been given that expound on the subject and seem to allude to how close we are to some extremely bad times! Maybe birth-pains, if not the ultimate devastations of the Tribulation.
4/11/2019: Joyce / Holland. - "Dear Brethren, God still speaks to his children through visions And messages. Like with Moses, he told them what To do and how To cover the houses with the blood so the spirit of death would not kill the the first Born in that house. Never thought that I would be doing this, but I now understand why God shows me the 33 signs. I did not believe it at first but I asked God To show me, And I got confirmation. The 3 days of darkness are coming, it is true. He who has ears listens. 3 signs before this darkness - like nuclear ( air colors / light ) Globally, power turning off Globally, Earthquakes Globally. We are being warned because he loves us. Darkness is real darkness, demonic entities extremely, but also physically sun being darkened by 3 days. - Get stuff for your house, stay inside during this period & do not let Anyone enter after the darkness. These people ( even family ) can be possessed.
You must think I am crazy but that's ok for me as long as you hear this message and know what To do. I pray the blood of Jesus upon all these people Here on this site. God bless you guys."
Joyce, God bless you. Hoping you're not as crazy as this sounds.
4/4/2019: Angela / USA. - "On the 3rd day of the 3rd month of the 3rd year of President Trumps reign, 03/03/2019, I had an "appointment" with God. I was directed to Ezekiel 33...and was called by God to be His watchman. It felt like a daunting and extremely grave mission that I must do for Him. When I returned home, I looked at my clock and it was 3:33. Confirmation. What's next?
Angela, Sounds intriguing! Praying you receive more revelation, if needed. Moreover, it's weird how the last four comments, yours being the last, are in order - April 1st, 2nd, 3rd, & 4th. Like a countdown at the beginning of this 4th month! Passover & Easter fall on the same day this year, this month. Maybe another confirmation. Or maybe something more! Weird!
1/5-14/2019: These beginning weeks of 2019 have been very interesting. #1) I received my original prophetic #s of Jan.5,2012 again, 707, 711, 717, & 728, (similar to 11/18/2018, but plainer). #2) I received another JZ license plate, JZY-7919, (one # off from my original JZY-7998). The #26 means nothing, but the #19 = Perfection of Divine Order via Judgment. And #3) On Jan.20&21st, the 2nd anniversary of Trumpt's inauguration, we have a Super Blood Wolf Moon over the entire U.S. Thus, I'm thinking 2019 may not be pretty!!
1/4/2019: Jody - "I just happened on your web site not by coincidence only divine guidance I'm certain. I have so many things to convey to fellow brothers & sisters, believers in CHRIST. I had an actual encounter in which I met the LORD. I was shown many things on many spiritual levels of instruct. I was shown the bible from beginning to end in about a thirty minute time span. The Lord directed my path into three people who became witness to my experience from a human level of understanding. I was in three states of a kind of conscious; if I could find a better word to describe I would. I was in spirit with the LORD, my mind was another state, and my heart reaction was a separate state as well. I was shown an opening of a seal and the children of GOD were in this seal. The LORD poured his sorrow deep inside my Belly and let me feel how deeply, deeply sad he is for his children. He showed me the devils cause of destruction which is so deep it's terrifying for those who will have to face what the devil is doing when they don't know JESUS. The LORD showed me the anti-CHRIST, three authority's in branches of authority on earth, and ministry as well. The time is now, the beginning of the end. It will last about 33 years before the anti-CHRIST is in rein and the great judgement will begin. This happened to me on 3/21/2018. 3/(2+1)3/(201)3 & 8=infinity. Also being shown the #9 which I believe means complete. There is so so so much more! I'm reaching out to anyone in hopes of relaying this message. I hope to hear from you. Jeffnjody2911@gmail.com"
Jody, 8 could also mean 'new beginnings', possibly 'rapture' and 9 could also refer to 'Divine judgment'. Reviewing my "End-Time Signs", 33 years to tribulation would seem to be on track. And it makes sense that the prior labor pains would be significant. Hopefully the rapture is near! I too feel so sorry for the unsaved. Bless your ministry & the promulgation of your revelations.
11/18/2018: - My original #s of Jan.5, 2012 seem to have been re-vitalized. Via digital clock I was given:
7:07 - Daniel 9:24 says “Seventy sevens are decreed to finish transgression, to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up prophecy”. (Of 490 yrs, 7 yrs of tribulation remain.)
7:11 - Gods # of "Spiritual Perfection or Completion" (#7) vs. imperfection, disorder, & judgment (#11)! The 11th hour?! Genesis 7:11 talks of Noah & the flood!
The next # I needed had to do with the 7&8 combination. Back then it was 7:17 quickly going to 7:18. I prayed, Lord just give me some kind of sign, some kind of sound. My electric heater kicked on at
7:25 - Now this could possibly be a bit of a stretch, but 25=17+8, thus we have the 7&8 combination! This combination relates to "Completion" followed by "New Beginnings". Together they have a very special significance in regards to a "Significant Spiritual Change", i.e., rapture, tribulation, or millennium.
It's been almost 7 years, I think my faith likely needed this shot in the arm! Thank you Lord.
7/29/2018: Joy - "Dear all who are seeing this number, I have been seeing the 33 combination mostly for the last few months on a daily basis. I prayed that the Lord would let me know if this was Him or something demonic. He showed me in a dream that it meant that Jesus is standing up ( rising ) again. Meaning from now on He will interfere with everything on Earth. The time is now! Get right with God and Pray for everyone!! I love all you Guys."
Joy, That makes sense. As I referenced on page 1, the #33 is certainly associated with Jesus, (and with God's Promises). Moreover, being 3x11, it could possibly represent God's Promise of Judgment on a chaotic world (#11).
4/25/2018: Brandon McLachlan / UK. - "I had a dream about the Jesus-like man once again. In it he stood a short distance from me again holding up his three fingers, but this time he turned his head to the side and pointed towards the horizon. So I turned my head to see what he was pointing at. I could see that the Sun and Moon were both going down together. When I turned back to look at the man, he had tears running down his face. Then I woke up. Do you have any ideas on what this could mean?"
Brandon, Referencing your 3/31/18 comment of seeing the 333 and of recurring dreams, this dream certainly verifies the end-time & SOS significance of the 333 message! It must signify the onslaught of "the sun & the moon being darkened". Google it. Many end-time bible verses reference it; the "Day of the Lord", a cruel day when God finally releases his ultimate anger on a corrupt & faithless world. Per Math.24:29, this will conclude the horrendous distress of the 7 yr Tribulation. Thus, the Tribulation must be very close. Maybe his 3 fingers represent 3 years as well as his deity. No wonder your Jesus-like man was crying!
3/21/2017: I received a possible revelation concerning the Revelation 12:1&2, Sept.23, 2017 prophecy, i.e., - "As Jesus was 9 months in the womb, and then born into this world, so born-again believers who make up the Body of Christ, (represented by the King planet Jupiter), after growing to maturity in the womb, i.e., "after that the full number of the gentiles have come in" (Rom.11:25), we will be born/delivered/raptured into His dominion, the Kingdom of Heaven. Sometime soon after this, months, possibly years, the Tribulation could commence". After receiving this, I rolled over trying to get another hour sleep; I checked the time, 9:11!! - That ominous number of coming judgment & devastation! Warning - do not take the mark of the Beast (Rev.14:9)!! - Of course the rapture did not happen 9/23/17. Maybe my revelation & that of Rev.12 coincide, but simply relate to future happenings.
1/3/2017: "HAPPY NEW YEAR" I received 338 > 339 and 833. 33=I Promise. 8=New Beginnings. 9=Judgment & Finality.
I believe that this being the 3rd day of a new year is also a significant sign or affirmation.
10/31/2016: (Halloween) I received 507 > 508. 7&8=A special Divine New Beginning. 50=The Jewish year of Jubilee. Which many believe is this present year (Sept.2016 - Sept.2017).
10/22-27/2016: Received several ominous numbers; most have to do with completion & judgment.
3/14/2016: See 3/13/16 Anonymous Watchman Comment. Same ominous 9:11 warning!!
2/28/2016: I believe I was given a confirmation today of the seriousness of the immanent 9:11 type devastations mentioned above. An article in "Prophecy in the News" referenced Revelation 9:11. It has to do with the release of the king of the demonic locusts, the "angel of the Abyss", Apollyon, the Destroyer. This is in conjunction with the opening of the 7th Seal; really super bad stuff!!!
2/22/2016: Interpretation of Recent Dreams & Ominous Numbers.
The 1st Dream (2/17/16), I think, is all about prepping for the 2nd Dream. Prepping for WAR & the ominous 911 devastations that seem to be so imminent!
In the 1st Dream, rather than working, or prepping, or ministering, we are just playing cards like nothing is happening! Maybe gambling that nothing is coming! At lunch time, others leave for the cafeteria (to get food, to get prepared!). I, like many out there, are lost, confused, procrastinating, or just aren't concerned. We're in this huge, expensive shopping mall (this land of plenty), but we have so many obstacles (doubts, lack of faith, lack of knowledge, money concerns - it's expensive to be a prepper!), we're going to end up unprepared, no cash, food, water, etc when war or 911 stuff happens. Water on the bathroom floor - how would I get clean water?
Not that God won't take care of His children. Or else, one way or another, take us to heaven. But, food can also represent the Word of God. If we had prepared/prepped, we could possibly save people, particularly spiritually; like John the Baptist tried to do as the forerunner of Jesus at his first coming. - As I reported earlier, I think this may be the calling of many 333 people in whatever capacity they may be able to minister. See "Why Certain People"/"Amazing Revelation".
Personally, I haven't been much of a prepper; I have some cash & a stash of toilet paper, but not much more. I'm in a rethinking process.
2/20/2016: Looking for another (3rd) 9:11 wake-up. But it didn't happen. -- Until, about 10am, on the local news; a coach mentioned that he worked with a retiring Steeler for 9 of 11 seasons!!! A 3rd ominous 9:11!! Something bad seems to be afoot!
2/19/2016: 7:30am = Perfection/Completion & 3x10=A higher Degree of Divine Order.
2/18/2016: Dream: On a ship, cargo or military, with several others. We were expecting to be attacked from the seaward side of the ship; so we all moved to the other side of the ship where we couldn't be seen and could possibly surprise our attackers. Saw 8 or 10 warrior type men, waist deep in water on the seaward side, ready to attack us.
2/17/2016: Woke at 7:13am. 7=Perfection/Completion & 13=Disintegration/Rebellion/Revolution. Similar to above!!
Then, I awoke at 9:11am. Same as above!!! - Very ominous numbers!!
Dream: Work place setting. Four of us playing cards. At lunch time, I lagged behind others and I got lost & confused in this huge, expensive shopping mall, trying to find the cafeteria! There were several obstacles! Found a bathroom but it was bad, water all over the floor! When I finally got to the cafeteria, lunch was over, no food.
2/15/2016: 7:50am, (my phone rang, nobody there)! 7=Perfection/Completion & 50=Jubilee. Will God complete His perfect plan in the 2017 Jubilee year?
9:11am, (was awoken again by a loud TV). 9=Judgment & 11=Governmental Disorder/Disintegration. Certainly 911 is a very ominous number, both in US history and biblical numerology! Will "The Economic Collapse Blog" projecting W.W.3 materialize?
1/27/2016: I've been hesitant to overtly push the end-times subject too much in my church. Like most churches out there, they don't seem to want to broach the issue; probably too afraid of bearing the reproach of being tagged as a failed date setter. With this & Domminique (333Guestbook Pg2 1/24/16) in mind, last night (late) I specifically prayed, "Lord, should we really have a sense of urgency?". I woke this morning & looked at the clock, 9:33; Judgement:I Promise!! Of course, He doesn't address the issue of when, but, I'm sure He knows our concerns and I'm sure He would not mislead us! Judgement is very near!
10/19/15: See "kingdomliving771" (You Tube) Oct.14, 2015 - "Rapture Song".
My comment: - "Wow! What a wonderful dream. Amazingly it ties in so well & validates the "333-Gods End-Time SOS Ministry.org" that God entrusted to me! There are thousands of people out there who keep seeing the number 333 and are wondering why. "Are You Ready" - 3 words, 3 times! Like you say, it sounds like the rapture & wedding feast are so very close for those that are ready for the rapture! Praise God!"
6-15-15. John the Baptist prepared the way for the Lord at "His Coming". Is that now our job for His 2nd Coming? See "Amazing 11:11 Revelation" under "Satan's # Games".
4-10-15. DREAM: Nightmarish dream of the world being flooded. Water kept flooding in. I kept moving from place to place. I awoke to 3:33! Warning!? Note: God of course promised not to flood the world again. Although, this could possibly relate to a tsunami, earthquake, axis shift, or meteor phenomena.
8-13-14. DREAM: I’m in China (I think) and I’m stealing/gathering fireworks type atomic rockets right in front of military leaders and then hiding them. My fellow comrades are amazed that I’m getting away with it.
6-14-14. DREAM: I was one of two military men attempting to attach nuclear bombs to wheels of a fighter jet in an attempt to force Russia to make peace not war. (Was a scary and difficult job.)
6-5-14. DREAM: We heard about a big explosion on TV or radio. We looked out a large picture window & saw extensive smoke in the distance and hundreds of people coming our way. It’s cold outside. Then, they were just outside. They look different; buffalo head dressings! Thinking they would overflow our house if we let them in! Food wouldn't last 2 days!
4-29-14. DREAM: I’m a participant in a war movie; 3 or 4 of us in a bunker type operations center. The movie is being directed by someone unseen; maybe God.
5-30-13. DREAM: I was in a barren rocky landscape. The ground was hot. There was one very large, dark rock; it grew bigger right in front of me. It too was surprisingly hot to the touch. - These two dreams certainly point to or possibly predict a winter time nuclear holocaust. - A rock generally refers to Christ, however, being hot, dark, and growing, it may refer to the rise of Antichrist.
5-12-13. DREAM: I was in a very cold, snowy place. I somehow knew that an A-bomb was going to be set off. Was desperately trying to find someone to listen to me, but without success.
4/11/2019: Joyce / Holland. - "Dear Brethren, God still speaks to his children through visions And messages.

1/5-14/2019: These beginning weeks of 2019 have been very interesting. #1) I received my original prophetic #s of Jan.5,2012 again, 707, 711, 717, & 728, (similar to 11/18/2018, but plainer). #2) I received another JZ license plate, JZY-7919, (one # off from my original JZY-7998).

Joy, That makes sense. As I referenced on page 1, the #33 is certainly associated with Jesus, (and with God's Promises). Moreover, being 3x11, it could possibly represent God's Promise of Judgment on a chaotic world (#11).
4/25/2018: Brandon McLachlan / UK. - "I had a dream about the Jesus-like man once again. In it he stood a short distance from me again holding up his three fingers, but this time he turned his head to the side and pointed towards the horizon. So I turned my head to see what he was pointing at. I could see that the Sun and Moon were both going down together. When I turned back to look at the man, he had tears running down his face. Then I woke up. Do you have any ideas on what this could mean?"
Brandon, Referencing your 3/31/18 comment of seeing the 333 and of recurring dreams, this dream certainly verifies the end-time & SOS significance of the 333 message! It must signify the onslaught of "the sun & the moon being darkened". Google it. Many end-time bible verses reference it; the "Day of the Lord", a cruel day when God finally releases his ultimate anger on a corrupt & faithless world. Per Math.24:29, this will conclude the horrendous distress of the 7 yr Tribulation. Thus, the Tribulation must be very close. Maybe his 3 fingers represent 3 years as well as his deity. No wonder your Jesus-like man was crying!
3/21/2017: I received a possible revelation concerning the Revelation 12:1&2, Sept.23, 2017 prophecy, i.e., - "As Jesus was 9 months in the womb, and then born into this world, so born-again believers who make up the Body of Christ, (represented by the King planet Jupiter), after growing to maturity in the womb, i.e., "after that the full number of the gentiles have come in" (Rom.11:25), we will be born/delivered/raptured into His dominion, the Kingdom of Heaven. Sometime soon after this, months, possibly years, the Tribulation could commence". After receiving this, I rolled over trying to get another hour sleep; I checked the time, 9:11!! - That ominous number of coming judgment & devastation! Warning - do not take the mark of the Beast (Rev.14:9)!! - Of course the rapture did not happen 9/23/17. Maybe my revelation & that of Rev.12 coincide, but simply relate to future happenings.
1/3/2017: "HAPPY NEW YEAR" I received 338 > 339 and 833. 33=I Promise. 8=New Beginnings. 9=Judgment & Finality.
I believe that this being the 3rd day of a new year is also a significant sign or affirmation.
10/31/2016: (Halloween) I received 507 > 508. 7&8=A special Divine New Beginning. 50=The Jewish year of Jubilee. Which many believe is this present year (Sept.2016 - Sept.2017).
10/22-27/2016: Received several ominous numbers; most have to do with completion & judgment.
3/14/2016: See 3/13/16 Anonymous Watchman Comment. Same ominous 9:11 warning!!
2/28/2016: I believe I was given a confirmation today of the seriousness of the immanent 9:11 type devastations mentioned above. An article in "Prophecy in the News" referenced Revelation 9:11. It has to do with the release of the king of the demonic locusts, the "angel of the Abyss", Apollyon, the Destroyer. This is in conjunction with the opening of the 7th Seal; really super bad stuff!!!
2/22/2016: Interpretation of Recent Dreams & Ominous Numbers.
The 1st Dream (2/17/16), I think, is all about prepping for the 2nd Dream. Prepping for WAR & the ominous 911 devastations that seem to be so imminent!
In the 1st Dream, rather than working, or prepping, or ministering, we are just playing cards like nothing is happening! Maybe gambling that nothing is coming! At lunch time, others leave for the cafeteria (to get food, to get prepared!). I, like many out there, are lost, confused, procrastinating, or just aren't concerned. We're in this huge, expensive shopping mall (this land of plenty), but we have so many obstacles (doubts, lack of faith, lack of knowledge, money concerns - it's expensive to be a prepper!), we're going to end up unprepared, no cash, food, water, etc when war or 911 stuff happens. Water on the bathroom floor - how would I get clean water?
Not that God won't take care of His children. Or else, one way or another, take us to heaven. But, food can also represent the Word of God. If we had prepared/prepped, we could possibly save people, particularly spiritually; like John the Baptist tried to do as the forerunner of Jesus at his first coming. - As I reported earlier, I think this may be the calling of many 333 people in whatever capacity they may be able to minister. See "Why Certain People"/"Amazing Revelation".
Personally, I haven't been much of a prepper; I have some cash & a stash of toilet paper, but not much more. I'm in a rethinking process.
2/20/2016: Looking for another (3rd) 9:11 wake-up. But it didn't happen. -- Until, about 10am, on the local news; a coach mentioned that he worked with a retiring Steeler for 9 of 11 seasons!!! A 3rd ominous 9:11!! Something bad seems to be afoot!
2/19/2016: 7:30am = Perfection/Completion & 3x10=A higher Degree of Divine Order.
2/18/2016: Dream: On a ship, cargo or military, with several others. We were expecting to be attacked from the seaward side of the ship; so we all moved to the other side of the ship where we couldn't be seen and could possibly surprise our attackers. Saw 8 or 10 warrior type men, waist deep in water on the seaward side, ready to attack us.
2/17/2016: Woke at 7:13am. 7=Perfection/Completion & 13=Disintegration/Rebellion/Revolution. Similar to above!!
Then, I awoke at 9:11am. Same as above!!! - Very ominous numbers!!
Dream: Work place setting. Four of us playing cards. At lunch time, I lagged behind others and I got lost & confused in this huge, expensive shopping mall, trying to find the cafeteria! There were several obstacles! Found a bathroom but it was bad, water all over the floor! When I finally got to the cafeteria, lunch was over, no food.
2/15/2016: 7:50am, (my phone rang, nobody there)! 7=Perfection/Completion & 50=Jubilee. Will God complete His perfect plan in the 2017 Jubilee year?
9:11am, (was awoken again by a loud TV). 9=Judgment & 11=Governmental Disorder/Disintegration. Certainly 911 is a very ominous number, both in US history and biblical numerology! Will "The Economic Collapse Blog" projecting W.W.3 materialize?
1/27/2016: I've been hesitant to overtly push the end-times subject too much in my church. Like most churches out there, they don't seem to want to broach the issue; probably too afraid of bearing the reproach of being tagged as a failed date setter. With this & Domminique (333Guestbook Pg2 1/24/16) in mind, last night (late) I specifically prayed, "Lord, should we really have a sense of urgency?". I woke this morning & looked at the clock, 9:33; Judgement:I Promise!! Of course, He doesn't address the issue of when, but, I'm sure He knows our concerns and I'm sure He would not mislead us! Judgement is very near!
10/19/15: See "kingdomliving771" (You Tube) Oct.14, 2015 - "Rapture Song".
My comment: - "Wow! What a wonderful dream. Amazingly it ties in so well & validates the "333-Gods End-Time SOS Ministry.org" that God entrusted to me! There are thousands of people out there who keep seeing the number 333 and are wondering why. "Are You Ready" - 3 words, 3 times! Like you say, it sounds like the rapture & wedding feast are so very close for those that are ready for the rapture! Praise God!"
6-15-15. John the Baptist prepared the way for the Lord at "His Coming". Is that now our job for His 2nd Coming? See "Amazing 11:11 Revelation" under "Satan's # Games".
4-10-15. DREAM: Nightmarish dream of the world being flooded. Water kept flooding in. I kept moving from place to place. I awoke to 3:33! Warning!? Note: God of course promised not to flood the world again. Although, this could possibly relate to a tsunami, earthquake, axis shift, or meteor phenomena.
8-13-14. DREAM: I’m in China (I think) and I’m stealing/gathering fireworks type atomic rockets right in front of military leaders and then hiding them. My fellow comrades are amazed that I’m getting away with it.
6-14-14. DREAM: I was one of two military men attempting to attach nuclear bombs to wheels of a fighter jet in an attempt to force Russia to make peace not war. (Was a scary and difficult job.)
6-5-14. DREAM: We heard about a big explosion on TV or radio. We looked out a large picture window & saw extensive smoke in the distance and hundreds of people coming our way. It’s cold outside. Then, they were just outside. They look different; buffalo head dressings! Thinking they would overflow our house if we let them in! Food wouldn't last 2 days!
4-29-14. DREAM: I’m a participant in a war movie; 3 or 4 of us in a bunker type operations center. The movie is being directed by someone unseen; maybe God.
5-30-13. DREAM: I was in a barren rocky landscape. The ground was hot. There was one very large, dark rock; it grew bigger right in front of me. It too was surprisingly hot to the touch. - These two dreams certainly point to or possibly predict a winter time nuclear holocaust. - A rock generally refers to Christ, however, being hot, dark, and growing, it may refer to the rise of Antichrist.
5-12-13. DREAM: I was in a very cold, snowy place. I somehow knew that an A-bomb was going to be set off. Was desperately trying to find someone to listen to me, but without success.
