Who Comes Next
There’s a LOT of chatter on Facebook and other social media about ‘The Mark of the Beast’. This is because of our ability to buy and sell being curbed as of late. I completely understand what people are worried about, because I’m worried about the same thing. And it’s compounded by the fact that we’re being forced to go cashless.
(NoTe: The chick in yesterday’s video says the ‘mark’ is going to be a new currency, that the Federal Reserve is going to be cancelled and there will be a transition year for people to get out of dollars and into whatever the new standard is going to be. Ooookay, but… we’re seeing people not able to buy/sell NOW, without a new currency. And getting America to give up the dollar…? When already there are so many things hanging in the balance? Not so sure that’s going to happen. Not so sure that has to happen, considering prophecy is already being fulfilled without it. More, currency doesn’t fulfill the ‘666’ part of it. Not the way CLVID19 does.)
(Secondary Note: YES, my ‘photo of the day’ warning is about this girl. For those who are friends on FB. She’s the gazelle in the analogy. BE CAREFUL. I watched her testimony, last night. It doesn’t match what my friend said the girl told her, and there were four different red flags that went off with that thing. I’m not saying God didn’t use her to help me, I’m saying God using her doesn’t make her God’s anymore than God using Balaam made Balaam God’s. That’s between them and God, but I don’t like the fruit I’m seeing. Just sayin’.)
As I’ve said before…in spite of the glaringly obvious end times signs, chrischuns aren’t putting the dots together, yet again. They’re picking and choosing verses from scripture to make themselves sound like they know what’s going on. But if you ask them their rapture stance? It’s either “there is no rapture” (which flies in the face of more verses than I’m interested in putting up, here), or “it’s pre-Trib!” Which also is wrong – you can’t be seeing ‘The Mark of the Beast’ from halfway thru Revelation if you’re going to be taken out before the events of Revelation start. Logic, people!!!
The first time I did a study of Revelation, I got it all wrong. It was before I was called to prophecy, and I had NO idea what I was talking about. I did it all based on scriptural imagery, pastoral teachings from my youth and some conjecture/hypothesis. That study isn’t on my blog – because when the ENPI went into effect and things started happening in six month increments? It didn’t happen the way I thought, and I had to throw all that BS out and start recording the events I was actually seeing.
Confession time: I haven’t read past the Two Witnesses in years and years. Why? Well, because I didn’t want to overwhelm myself with things beyond what I needed to focus on. The Two Witnesses seemed like the most obvious of the fulfillments, and until I saw them come to pass, I simply had it in my mind that we were in the first half of the book, and that’s all I needed to concentrate on. Also because I already knew from previous readings of the book about what’s coming, and that’s been good enough for me. ((Spoiler Alert: my team wins.)) Another reason I didn’t go further, because it wasn’t relevant at the time. Presently, I’m revisiting scripture in Revelation that I haven’t read in years. Because it wasn’t where I was called to be. We weren’t living that, yet.
And now we are.
As I wrote yesterday, I’ve blogged through the seals and the trumpets as they happened. We’ve seen the Two Witnesses. We’ve seen Israel Downtrodden. We’ve seen the Beast of the Sea, and the Beast of the Earth. We’ve seen the prevention of buying and selling via a ‘mark’ that has a name and number of the name.
That takes us through Revelation chapter 13. There IS a chance that we’ll be in the end chapter 13 for a while… if the ‘mark’ is the vaccine, and/or having a digital certificate (whether in a phone or in a microchip) is going to stop ALL buying/selling (including drive-thru/on-line)… there are variables.
I’m still doing the SMS. Six months for each major event in Revelation. I have ‘Beast of the Sea’ as 2019b, and ‘Beast of the Earth’ as 2020a… which means that – even though we see the mark, and it’s being introduced by way of CLVID-19 – it’s full implementation by way of vaccine might not be until 2020b… as that six-month period’s event. If that’s the case, then we’re looking at a Spring Feast exit.
OR… it might be that the mark NOT a separate event, but tied to the ‘Beast of the Earth’, and fulfilled in 2020a. What we’re seeing now. If that’s the case? Then we’ll be moving into Revelation 14, come September. We only have to make it two more months. Yesterday was Av 1… Rosh Ha’Shana is Tishri 1. Two. More. Months…!!
If the actual vaccine is the 2020b fulfillment event of the SMS? We have to make it to spring 2021… which puts us in mandatory innoculation territory, and is very likely to be so ugly. I’ve been asking myself some hard questions – am I willing to go to prison over this? Am I willing to die, if it comes to that? Because I will not wear a mask. Period. And while I’m afraid of that period of time, and that scenario? My faith in Him is greater than that fear. My mantra would be We only have to make it to Pesach.
I prefer to ‘only have to make it to September’. Obviously.
“What are you talking about???” you ask. “September? Next spring? What’s going to happen that you’re waiting for?” Well… Revelation 14, quite honestly. What happens after the mark of the beast, in the end times timeline. Or should I say, WHO happens after the mark in the timeline.
THIS is the point of this post.
To talk about who is coming, next… after the ‘mark’.
And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Zion, and with Him an hundred forty and four thousand, having His Father’s name written in their foreheads. – Rev 14:1
First, there’s a mis-translation in there – be forewarned. If you look up the word ‘stood’… it’s not Him actually coming and standing on a mountain. The word there is ‘histame‘ – or ‘a prolonged standing: to abide, appoint, bring, continue, covenant, establish, hold up, lay out, present, set up‘. We’re not talking about Christ literally coming and standing on Mt. Zion. We’re talking about Him setting up, or bringing His covenant to the forefront. His promise. That’s what we’re seeing, here. The Lamb (Messiah) holds up the covenant.
And who are the 144,000? Well, they’re not Jehovah’s Witnesses, sorry to burst any bubbles. Here’s the description of them:
1. having His Father’s name written in their foreheads. – Rev 14:1
This isn’t about Jee-zus. This is about the FATHER. These people have the Father’s name in their foreheads/minds. First and foremost. They belong to Yehovah Elohim.
2. And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps: And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth. – Rev 14:2
Gonna do this one backwards, cuz… well, it’s backwards. These people:
a) are redeemed from the earth – these are not angels or heavenly host. They’re humans. Redeemed humans… by the Blood of the Lamb. These are believers in Messiah and His shed blood.
b) are before the throne in Heaven. Some people say the ‘rapture’ is just moving folks from wherever they are on the planet to Jerusalem/Mt. Zion to join Messiah in the fight. That flies in the face of this verse, as well as John 14:3 and a lot of other scripture.
c) are filled with indescribable joy. They’re singing. There’s music for them. They’re worshipping before the throne. And only those who are redeemed can sing it – nobody else understands the words… because they don’t have Messiah, and don’t comprehend the eternal plan.
d) are approved of by God, in the ‘voice from heaven’ thing. It sounds very much like a “this is my people, with whom I am well pleased” kind of a thing. Which… wOw, right?
3. These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever He goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb. Rev 14:3
Three more things about them:
a) They’re not ‘defiled with women’. In Revelation, the ‘woman’ is Israel, God’s nation/belief system. Other women would be other nations/belief systems. These people have nothing to do with any other beliefs – they’re dedicated solely to Yehovah.
b) They are ‘virgins’… this means they have kept themselves pure spiritually for Yehovah, alone, and have obeyed His commandments, the Torah.
c) They follow the Lamb. These are those with Faith in Messiah. DEVOUT faith, in addition to their sanctification to Yehovah and His precepts.
d) They are ‘firstfruits’ to God and the Lamb. Harkening back to 1 Corinthians 15:23-24:
But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ’s at His coming. Then cometh the end, when He shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when He shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. – 1 Cor 15:23-24
In other words, God has set things in an order of events that will happen: Christ completed His task and rose to the Father. ‘Firstfruits’ is the feast featuring lifting up an offering to the Father, and Messiah fulfilled that when he was lifted up (ascended) to the Father. According to 1 Corinthians 15, the next ascension (or lifting up, or ‘Firstfruits’ offering) are the people who belong to Christ at His coming. And what event happens AFTER that, in the line up? THEN the end, where He puts down all rule and earthy authority/power.
DID YOU CATCH THAT? He comes first… THEN ‘cometh the end’. He doesn’t come AT the end. He comes, and THEN the end, or the wrath begins. He comes in Rev 14… before the vial judgments even open!!! He comes for His own, fulfilling Revelation 3:10 – ‘I will keep them from the hour of wrath’. THERE IS A RAPTURE. More verses to prove it:
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 1 Thess 4:16-17
The dead in christ DO rise, and we DO meet them in the air, and ARE changed incorruptible. And it’s NOT post-Trib (after the Tribulation). He comes, and stands (upholds His covenant) on Mt. Zion (figuratively, the Church) and, 144,000 (symbolic of all the tribes/nations who are in him) come to him, there. It’s next!!!!
More about these 144,000 people redeemed from the earth as firstfruits:
And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God. Rev 14:5
They haven’t played games, haven’t hidden the Truth… they are completely honest. And they are found ‘without fault’, because their sins were washed away by the blood/water of Yeshuah, the sacrificial Lamb.
Now, if you go back and look at Revelation 14:3… these people are also called the ‘Firstfruit’… meaning there will be others, later. They’re not the end of Yehovah’s people on earth. They get taken out, but there will be others who believe, from within the wrath. And to prove this, we’re going to skip over the events that come next, and read verses 12-13, to clarify verse 3 for a moment:
Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of Yehovah Elohim, and the faith of Messiah Yeshua. And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them. – Rev 14:12-13
Again, a clarification of who ‘saints’ are. They are the ones who both keep Torah, and believe in Messiah. Jews keep Torah, but reject Ha’Mosiach Yeshua. Christians are ‘saved’ by Jee-zus, but believe the old covenant was done away with, and don’t keep the commandments, feasts, eat kosher, or keep the Sabbath. NEITHER are the saints, according to this… because you have to have both.
But catch that next part? Verse 13? We just had the rapture of the ‘firstfruits’, as Christ comes to fulfill His promise. THEN the end times begin… and this says, ‘Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord henceforth’. That means there will be people saved during the Wrath. But they don’t get raptured, they die… henceforth. If there was no rapture, this verse would make no sense.
Which means the next event after the mark? It’s the Rapture.
