6 MY INSIGHTS My insights for this special book first began when I was saved in the spring of It was then that the Holy Spirit made the Scriptures come Alive to me right off the pages of the bible & into my heart with His Wonderful divine Love. And these experiences continued every day for about three months. Every time that God would meet me like this with His wonderful Love, I would just cry. This book is a special collection of 100 s of revelations from many related writings which the Holy Spirit has given to me over the years. I wish to state very clearly now that all of these insights are not thus says the Lord, but they are my personal revelations of what the Lord has shown to me over many years from studying His Word, and being in His Presence. These are the ways I believe that these amazing events will unfold in the very near future. Beginning on Yom Teruah through Succoth, in 2012, God began clearly calling me to start putting all these many years of revelations and teachings together into one book on this subject of Yeshua s Mystery Bride. This book has shown me many areas in my own life where I need to get more serious in my walk with God, such as in seeking Him more often, and having my priorities in order, by putting God first, by studying His Holy Scriptures daily, and a lot more, and by just waiting on the Lord. This Bridal walk first begins by being a disciple of Yeshua. Hopefully this book will give you a much clearer and deeper understanding about so many of the mysteries that exist regarding the coming events about Yeshua and Yeshua s most beloved Bride. How fast we see everything moving towards the soon coming of our King! Let us be those who are making ourselves ready! 6

7 Preface The Greatest Love Story of all Time Revelation 10:7 refers to the Mystery of God. When the seventh trumpet sounds, this Great Mystery of God will be finished. What is this Great Mystery? That the Son of God would come to earth as a Man, and Create a Bride for Himself from redeemed men and women; with His Wedding in Heaven. To write a book which covers so many mysteries of the Bride of Yeshua, the Son of God, God has to call you to write this book. God has clearly told us that no one knows the day or the hour when God will come for His Bride, and also when He will return to earth with His Bride. God wants to reveal secrets hidden in Scriptures for us, for such a time as this. Because it has been given to you to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven. Matthew 13:11 Why has God called me to write this book now? Because our Loving God wants His Body to more clearly understand the Truths on this subject which He has hidden in His Word, and also because there are so many wrong teachings and such great deceptions in His Body that are being taught on this subject. All those errors, if not corrected, could easily add to the love of many growing cold. And those greatly deceived by the wrong theologies on this subject could easily fall away from the Lord in the very hard years ahead. Time is short, and Yeshua has told us that the Truth will make us free, so that we can better serve the Lord, following His Holy Spirit accurately up the narrow road which leads into our Eternal Life. Amos 3:7 Surely the Lord GOD does nothing, unless He reveals His council to His servants the prophets. 2 nd Chronicles 20:20 Hear me, O Judah and you inhabitants of Jerusalem. Believe in the LORD your God, and you shall be established; believe His prophets, and you shall prosper. But there is a God in Heaven who reveals secrets... Daniel 2:28 Proverbs 25:2 It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, but it is the glory of kings to search out a matter. 7

8 Synopsis Overview of Yeshua s Bride [This is the Greatest of all Love Stories!] Yeshua s Beloved Bride will be taken to Heaven! There is no Pre or Mid or Post Tribulation Rapture of Yeshua s Bride; all these are just Church theories. They are all missing the biblical proofs which are found in the Mysteries of the Feasts of the LORD, of Leviticus 23, and also the Mysteries of the Shofar of God, which are the 10 places in the Old and New Covenant Scriptures where Yeshua (Jesus) Himself first sounds His Shofar into Creation, for His Bridal Call for His Bride, and later for His Millennial Kingdom Reign on earth. The Mysteries of the Seven Feasts of the LORD, and how each of these Feasts relate to the Mysteries of Yeshua and His Bride, and His soon Return. Most of Yeshua s parables were not about a Wedding, but were really about the guests at a Wedding Banquet. Yeshua s Marriage will have one Bridegroom, and one Bride; and there will also be many guests. So who then is Yeshua s mystery Bride? And who are the invited guests? Yeshua s Marriage and His Marriage Supper will be two different events, which will be held at two different times, and in two different places. The Marriage of the Lamb will be held in Heaven. But the Marriage Supper of the Lamb will later be held back down on earth in Jerusalem, after the Honeymoon of Yeshua and His Bride in Heaven. 8

9 The Mysteries of the Feasts of the LORD These are My Feasts! Leviticus 23 Shabbat : Friday at dusk to Saturday evening at dusk Feast of Passover (14 th of Nissan) Feast of Unleavened Bread (15 th thru 21 st of Nissan) Yeshua s Crucifixtion and Death on the Cross Feast of First Fruits of barley, during Passover (16 th of Nissan) Yeshua s Resurrection Day (Leviticus 23:10) (Then begins the counting of the omer until 50 days later) 50 days after Yeshua s Resurrection Day is Shavuot : Feast of First Fruits of wheat, also called Pentecost; fulfillment: Yeshua s Bride will be taken to Heaven Midnight Hour, which will be at the Lion s Roar late in the Tribulation years Zichron Teruah or Yom Teruah (Feast of Trumpets) 1 st of Tishri; The Day of Yeshua s Marriage in Heaven with His Wife (Bride), to conclude before the Seventh Trumpet of Revelation 11:15-18; Then their Honeymoon in Heaven (lasts one year of earth s time) [The 10 days from Yom Teruah until Yom Kippur are called the 10 days of Awe by religious Jews, 10 days to repent to God for all sins, from the Day of Judgment to the Day of Final Judgment.] Yom Kippur : Day of Atonement & Final Judgment (10 th of Tishri) Day the Lord Yeshua Returns with His Wife (Armies) to Jerusalem Succoth : Feast of Tabernacles Celebration (15 th to 22 nd of Tishri) The Marriage Supper of the Lamb will be held in Jerusalem, on Yeshua s Birthday : Launching His Millennial Kingdom Reign 9

10 The Bridal position in Yeshua s Body is the greatest of all Love affairs with the King of Love, Yeshua! Yeshua s Bride are those who choose to come, from the different places in Yeshua s Body, those who daily desire to enter in, to press into the very Heart of God, which is the Presence of Yeshua, our Living and Loving God; they are those who choose above all things to surrender fully into Yeshua s Wonderful Love! This takes daily surrender of our own self will, trusting totally in God s Almighty will, knowing that He is totally in charge of all things, and for our greatest Good. 10

11 For God so Loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have Everlasting Life. John 3:16 If anyone loves Me, he will keep My Word; and My Father will Love him. And We will come to him and make Our Home with him. John 14:23 the Spirit of Truth He will guide you into all Truth He will Glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you! John 14:17; 16:13, 14 11

12 And we have known and believed the Love that God has for us. God is Love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him. 1 st John 4:16 12

13 You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. Deuteronomy 6:5 you shall love your neighbor as yourself. I am the LORD. Leviticus 19:18 Teacher, which is the Great Commandment in the Torah? Yeshua said to him, You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and Great Commandment. And the second is like it, You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. Matthew 22:

Ephesians 1:10 And He put all things under His feet and gave Him to be head over all things to the Church, which is His Body... Ephesians 1:22, 23 God who created all things through His Son Yeshua.

These are just a glimpse of the attributes of our Bridegroom King! Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth, as it is in Heaven! Matthew 6:10 The Mighty One He will Rejoice over you with Gladness, He will quiet you with His Love; He will Rejoice over you with Singing. Zephaniah 3:17 16

17 To be like Yeshua in His Obedience and Surrender to His Father This is truly the Walk of Yeshua s Bride! And immediately, coming up from the water, He saw the Heavens parting and the Spirit descending upon Him like a dove. Then a Voice came from Heaven This is My beloved Son (Yeshua), in whom I am well pleased. Hear Him! and Follow Him! and Obey Him! Matthew 3:16, 17; 17:5; Mark 1:10, 11; 9:7; Luke 3:21, 22; 9:35 And He who sent Me is with Me. My Father has not left Me alone, for I always do those things that please Him! John 8:29 Father, if it be Your will, take this cup away from Me; nevertheless not My will, but Yours, be done! Luke 22:42 (also Matthew 26:39 and Mark 14:36) John 15:5 I am the Vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing! But seek First the Kingdom of God and His Righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Matthew 6:33 John 6:63 It is the Spirit who gives Life; the flesh profits nothing! The Words that I speak to you are Spirit, and they are Life! For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God! Romans 8:14 To let God call all the moves will be Victory & open doors! To let God lead, and I humbly follow the Holy Spirit! I must take up my cross daily, and follow Yeshua! 17

18 For your Maker is your Husband, The LORD of hosts is His name; And your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel; He is called the God of the whole earth. Isaiah 54:5 Return, O backsliding children, for I am Married to you. Jeremiah 3:14 (Jeremiah 3; 8) And it shall be, in that Day, says the LORD, that you will call Me, My Husband, and no longer call Me, My Master. Hosea 2:16 Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when I will make a New (Marriage) Covenant with the House of Israel and the House of Judah, not according to the Covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, My Covenant which they broke, though I was a Husband to them, says the LORD. But this is the Covenant that I will make with the House of Israel after those days, says the LORD, I will put My Torah in their minds, and write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. No more shall every man teach his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD, for they shall all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says the LORD. For I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more. Jeremiah 31:

19 The LORD has appeared of old to me, saying, Yes, I have Loved you with an Everlasting Love. Therefore with Lovingkindness I have drawn you. Jeremiah 31:3 And the Spirit and the Bride say Come! Revelation 22:17 19

20 Therefore, behold, I will allure her (Israel), will bring her into the wilderness, and speak comfort to her. I will give her vineyards from there, and the Valley of Achor as a door of hope. She shall sing there, as in the days of her youth, as in the day when she came up from the land of Egypt. And it shall be, in that Day, says the LORD, that you will call Me My Husband, and no longer call Me My Master! I will betroth you to Me Forever! Yes, I will betroth you to Me in Righteousness and in Justice, in Lovingkindness and in Mercy. I will betroth you to Me in Faithfulness! And you shall know the LORD! Hosea 2:14-16,19, 20 20

21 Come, I will show you the Bride, the Lamb s Wife. Revelation 21:9 and Revelation 22:3, 4 A Bride for our Bridegroom King! 21

22 To have just a glimpse of who our Bridegroom King really is, shows us that for a certain person & persons to become His called and chosen and faithful Bride, they must be His perfect match, His reflection. Let us make man in Our image according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, over the cattle, over all the earth... Genesis 1:26 What is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man that You visit him? You have made him a little lower than Elohim, and You have crowned him with glory and honor. You have made him to have Dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet. Psalm 8:4-6 You are gods; and all of you sons of the Most High. Psalm 82:6 The heaven, even the heavens are the LORD s; but the earth He has given to the sons of Adam. Psalm 115:16 Adam, son of God. Luke 3:38) For imperfect men & women to make this transformation within their fallen nature is absolutely impossible; for we are talking about becoming a perfect reflection of God. Because of this Sacrifice of Yeshua, and what He accomplished for us with His Life, offered unto death, & because of His sinless shed Blood which enabled God to be able to totally forgive us of all our sins, and to now live in us, this great transformation work is now being done in each one of us by God the Holy Spirit. He now lives within each saved and born again believer, and He is radically changing our carnal natures, as we die daily to the flesh. The Holy Spirit is making us more like our Wonderful Savior, King Yeshua. (read 1 John 1:7-9) Therefore it is truly only the Work of God the Holy Spirit within us, who is able to prepare those in the Body of Messiah, who have desired, and who have been willing to go for this total surrender. These are the ones who have said yes to God. For they desire above all else, in life or by death, to offer themselves daily on His altar of transformation, and to have God live fully and completely on the inside of them; & to become His most Beloved, the Bride of Yeshua, for the Bridegroom King &Great High Priest! (Read John 14:23 and John 15:9, 10) 22

23 Notes: Revealing the Mysteries of Yeshua s Bride To be Yeshua s Bride is Father God s Greatest Reward! As Eve was taken from Adam s body, Yeshua s Bride comes from His Body Hebrews 12:14 Holiness, without which no one will see the Lord. 1) Weddings generally have one bridegroom and one bride, along with many guests. This Marriage of King High Priest Yeshua to His Bride, His Wife, will be no exception to this pattern. Revelation 11:18 & 19:7, 8 2) The Church is not Yeshua s Bride! The Church is Yeshua s Body! a) Ephesians 1:22, 23 And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the Church, which is His Body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all. (Yeshua deeply Loves each person in His Body!) b) Colossians 1:17-20, 24 And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist. And He is Head of the Body, the Church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may have the preeminence. For it pleased the Father that in Him all the fullness should dwell, and by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him, whether things on earth or things in Heaven, having made peace through the blood of His cross. I now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up in my flesh what is lacking in the afflictions of Christ, for the sake of His Body, which is the Church c) Ephesians 4:11-16 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the Body of Christ, until we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, but speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the Head, Messiah, from whom the whole Body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the Body for the edifying of itself in love. d) 1 st Corinthians 12:27-31 Now you are the Body of Messiah, & members individually. And God has appointed these in the Church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, varieties of tongues. Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of miracles? Do all have 23

24 gifts of healings? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret? But earnestly desire the best gifts. And yet I show you a more excellent way... 1 st Corinthians 13:1-13 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. Though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing. Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the Truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails! But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away. When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known. And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love! e) Ephesians 5:25-30 Husbands, love your wives, just as Messiah also loved the Church and gave Himself for her, that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the Word, that He might present her to Himself a Glorious Church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish. So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself. For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the Church. For we are members of His Body, of His flesh & of His bones. He who has the Bride is the Bridegroom! John 3:29 Yeshua s Bride are those who will make it into the very Heart of God! 3) But within Yeshua s Body you will find Yeshua s Mystery Bride! The Bridal place in Yeshua s Body is one of Great Grace but also of works! This Bridal position is open to all believers. God s heart knows those who really desire this intimate closeness with their Bridegroom Lover! Living daily within the very Heart of Yeshua, letting God mature us in real intimacy, obedience, surrender, love, sacrifice, perseverance, servanthood, faithfulness, holiness, honor, and humility. Yeshua s true disciples are His best soldiers. 24

25 They put Him first in all things, and prefer others above themselves, giving their lives to help & save others. Their delight is in the fear of the LORD! [The Bridal position is available for all believers to press into (2 nd Corinthians 11:2)] 4) Yeshua gave one parable about the Bridegroom & His Bride, Matthew 25:1-10; verse 10, 5 out of 10 virgins were ready &went into the Marriage. Revelation 19:7, 8 Yeshua s Wife in fine linen was ready by righteous acts. All of Yeshua s other Wedding parables were about Guests and food at a Marriage Supper, the Wedding Banquet. Matthew 25:11: the five virgins who were not ready; Matthew 22:1-14; Luke 12:34-44 you yourselves be like men who wait for their Master, when He will return from the Wedding ; Rev 3:20; Mat 24:44-46; Luke 14:8-24; 19:13; The Guests: Revelation 19:9, Blessed are those who are called to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. 5) There is a major difference between a Marriage Ceremony (the Wedding), & the Marriage Supper (the Banquet Celebration after, when food is served). The Marriage of the Lamb will be in Heaven on Yom Teruah! John 14:3; 17:24; Revelation 11:15,18 Then there is a one year Honeymoon in Heaven (Deuteronomy 24:5), where Yeshua s Wife learns about as it is in Heaven, so be it on the earth. (Isaiah 34:8; 63:4) Yeshua will return to earth with His armies as He destroys His enemies on the Feast of Battle, Yom Kippur. The Marriage Supper of the Lamb will be held in Jerusalem with His Guests on Yeshua s Birthday, Succoth, Feast of Tabernacles. This begins His Millennial Reign. (Isaiah 25:6-10; Matthew 22:7;10; Revelation 19:9, 14) 6) Yeshua is the fulfillment of the First Fruits of barley harvest during Passover - Unleavened Bread (Leviticus 23:10). Yeshua s Wife (Bride) will be the fulfillment of First Fruits of spring wheat harvest, Shavuot. These two feasts of God are always connected by the counting of the omer for 50 days. Israel has three harvest feast seasons each year: barley harvest, during the time of Passover and Unleavened Bread, followed by the spring wheat harvest, first fruits of wheat, Shavuot, and then the great fall wheat harvest celebration, which is held on Succoth, the Feast of Tabernacles. 7) Passover has unleavened bread, matzah. Whereas Shavuot is a two loaf firstfruits offering of leavened bread. The two loaves are seen in Revelation 7:1-8, 144,000 from the 12 tribes of Israel, and Revelation 14:1-5; 144,000, redeemed from all nations of the earth. (Song of Solomon 6:13: two camps) I believe these two loaves of 144,000 are actual numbers, and not symbolic. 25

26 8) The Fullness of Yeshua s Bride will be taken to Heaven on Shavuot at the Midnight Hour. For 2000 years believers who have died have been taken up to Heaven. For to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. 2 nd Corinthians 5:8 And among this group are Yeshua s Bride. But there will come a time when the completion of Yeshua s Bride will be taken to Heaven; it will happen exactly when Yeshua said, at the Midnight Hour! So then what is this Midnight Hour? It is just before the release of God s Wrath, 3 months later, and for one year (Isaiah 13:9-16; 34:8; 61:2; 65:14), in the Day of the LORD! This occurs near the end of the 7 Tribulation years. (see Matthew 24:13-(22) 31; Rev 6:15-17; 11:15-18; Isaiah 13:4-11; Joel 2:1-11; Romans 5:9; 1 st Thessalonians 1:10 and 1 st Thessalonians 5:9) 9) Is there any place in Scripture where we see Yeshua s Bride being taken up into Heaven, besides Matthew 25:10? In Matthew 25:5, the Bridegroom delayed. In Revelation 10:1-7, after this Mighty Angel, Yeshua, Himself, Roars like a Lion, then He says that there will be delay no longer! His Roar (on Shavuot) takes His Bride to Heaven, & is the key that brings forth the Marriage of the Lamb. After a preparation time, this Marriage will then be held three months later, on Tishri 1, Zichron Teruah or Trumpets, when the seventh angel sounds the 7 th silver trumpet. Revelation 11:15, 18 I believe this Mystery of God (Revelation 10:7) is Yeshua s Marriage! The first Shavuot began at Mount Sinai (Exodus 19) with the sounding of the Shofar of God, when God announced His Marriage Betrothal Covenant with Israel and with the nations. Exodus 12:28 and Deuteronomy 29:9-15; And then God divorced Israel. (Jer 3:1-8; Is 50:1) But God still cried out for Israel to return to Him, saying, I am Married to you! (Jeremiah 3:12-14) For your Maker is your Husband, the LORD of hosts is His name. Isaiah 54:5 God told Israel and Judah that He was a Husband to them. (Jeremiah 31:32) Then in Acts 2:1-6, in the Upper Room on Shavuot, God re-entered into His Marriage Betrothal call to Israel, but now through God s New Covenant. God s One New Man, Jew and Gentile, were called into Marriage Betrothal. Marriage Betrothal of Yeshua to His Wife (Bride) begun at Mount Sinai, on Shavuot, will be consummated in Heaven in Marriage on Zichron Teruah. 10) All believers in Yeshua are kings & priests in Melchi Zedek Priesthood, under our King and Great High Priest Yeshua. However Yeshua s Bride, those who have made it into the very Heart of God, will be His high priests and also kings in this Melchi Zedek Priesthood. Yeshua is our Great King, the King of Glory, the KING of kings and the LORD of Lords, and Yeshua is also our Great High Priest, Melchi Zedek (my King of Righteousness)! 26

27 Yeshua s Bride are being trained as high priests in prayer and intercession, and as kings in use of kingly authority and kingly decrees in so many areas. 11) Yeshua s Bride is sealed in her forehead! See Ezekiel 9:4-6; Revelation 3:7-12; Revelation 7:3, 4; Revelation 14:1, 3, 4; Rev 21:9, 10; & Rev 22:3, 4 12) There is no pre, mid, or post Tribulation Rapture of Yeshua s Bride! These are all just Church theories which are all missing Biblical keys found in the Mystery Shofar of God: the 10 places where Yeshua sounds the Shofar in the Bible. These places are actually two different events, the first one was at Mount Sinai, which is called the First Trump. Exodus 19:16-19 The 2 nd event is the Last Trumpet, also called the Great Trumpet! This is seen: 1 st Corinthians 15:51-54; Isaiah 18:3; Isaiah 27:13; Zechariah 9:14-16; 1 st Thessalonians 4:16-17; Ephesian 1:10; Matthew 24:30, 31; Mark 13:26, 27; Leviticus 25:8-10; Psalm 50:4-6; Micah 2:12, 13; [& Revelation 1:10 & 4:1]. When we talk about Rapture, is this the Rapture of Yeshua s Bride? Or is this the Rapture when Yeshua sounds the Great Shofar, done as He is returning to earth with His Wife and all the rest of His Armies, to destroy all His enemies? This Great Shofar call will cause the rest of His Body on the earth to be instantly gathered together to Himself in the air! (Mark 13:27) God referred to His First Trump on Shavuot as a Jubal (Jubilee)! Ex 19:13 Yeshua is returning in the Year of Jubilee! Leviticus 25:8-10 (Strong s #3104) How does Yeshua s Bride make Herself Ready? Yeshua came to earth not just to Save us from our sins, but to set us free from wrong choices with our self will, our independent fallen nature of living as our own god, doing our own thing, having our own way, separate from our Creator. He came to free us from sin & death, and to bring us into Eternal Life with His Father. Yeshua told us that we must be born again, born of the Spirit. That meant our spirit needed to be reconnected to the Holy Spirit of the Living God. That connection which Adam, the son of God, had before his fall, was lost when Adam & Eve sinned & fell. But 27

28 when Yeshua died on the Cross as a Man for our sins, by taking all of our sins upon Himself, then by God s Grace we were able to confess & repent for our sins, & be brought back into fellowship with God. Then our spirit was born again reconnected with the Holy Spirit of God. We were born from above. But this was only the beginning, the first step as new born babes in our walk with the Holy Spirit of the Living God toward the Kingdom of Heaven. God created us as human beings with a spirit, soul, and body. Our soul is made up of our mind will and emotions. We were all created in God s own image. God Loves us! He Loves our spirit, soul, and body, & He Loves our mind, will, and emotions. Before Adam sinned and fell, he had fellowship and relationship with his Father through his spirit. Adam s spirit had control over his soul, over his mind, will, and emotions, and over his body. When he fell, being tricked by the devil, then his spirit became cut off from God his Father, through sin. And the soul of man took over the control of his being, just to survive. His soul (his mind, his self will, and his emotions) then came under the direct evil influence of the devil. This is how most of men lived for 1000 s of years, disconnected from their God, since Adam and Eve s fall, until God sent Yeshua, His Son, to earth to restore lost mankind back to their Father God. For God so Loved the world that He sent His only begotten Son. Yeshua also came to make those who were Saved into disciples, who would be taught how to follow their Loving Lord and Savior. He would teach them how to walk in the Spirit, and how to be led by the Spirit. Man, who had been functioning from his soul, that is from his mind, self will, emotions, would now become disciples of God s own Son, taught by the One who had Saved them. He would teach them the Way of the Cross, so that they would also be able to return to their Creator, Abba Father! They would learn to use their self will by now choosing obedience to God s Word & God s will, taking up their cross daily & following Him into Everlasting Life. 28

29 Today, all of us, as true born again believers are on this walk of discipleship. We need to make a shift from ourselves as the center of our lives, the ones in charge of our lives, into surrendering the controls, and allowing the Holy Spirit to be the Center of our life. We need to let go and let God be the One in control, to lead us, and to guide us back to our Loving Father. We need to daily, better yet moment by moment decide not to be in control with our minds and our own self will, but to allow our spirit & God s Holy Spirit to be in charge of our lives. We need to take up our cross daily, & follow Yeshua. We need to be more aware of all the promptings of our Comforter, the Holy Spirit. And hopefully most of us disciples are also daily being matured by the Holy Spirit of Truth into all Truth. Satan has been influencing our soul, with his negative thoughts and feelings, which we have believed were ours, but which are not. Once we started learning the Word of God, his attacks became more obvious to us. And God has been training us to use His Word as a Sword against our adversary. This battle has been at our minds, & only through declaring the Word of God can we win this battle. God s Word is true, and He gives us Victory in this battle. But we must continually surrender and allow the Holy Spirit and our spirit to be in control, and not our minds, and our self will, and emotions. For Yeshua s disciples seeking to get closer to our Lord, here are some helpful steps that we can each apply in our daily walk. One good way for us not to be in control is to ask the Lord s direction in almost everything we do, in the decisions that we make daily, to learn to shift our focus off of ourselves as the center, and to make our Lord Yeshua the Center, to learn to let the Lord lead us more, as we just humbly follow. Also to not be driven by the devil; to recognize more quickly his tactics, and to stop allowing him to have any control over our thoughts and feelings. For all true believers in Yeshua are on this disciple s Walk of the Cross. 29

30 Other good ways are to worship Yeshua more, and to just sit quietly before the Lord a lot more than we do. This will be helpful in allowing the Lord time to change us in many areas, such as in crucifying our flesh with its lusts, and passions, and desires, and drives for attention, recognition, and approval of man; and in our selfish, judgmental, and critical behavior toward others, and in any perfectionist behavior, just to mention a few common areas that need to be overcome by so many of us. To be able to live a life of really staying humble, with daily repentance for any sins, and also praying a lot more in the Spirit for ourselves and for others. Are we quickly obeying God, when He tells us to do, or not to do something? We do not have to talk and give our point of view, unless we have the Spirit s unction. Just to be nobody special! It would also be good to ask the Holy Spirit s daily protection. 30

31 The Mystery of Yeshua s Bride versus the saved Guests! All weddings have one bride and one bridegroom, with many guests attending. It will be similar at this most special Wedding of all, which will take place in Heaven. And a special Wedding banquet will follow this Wedding. Most of Yeshua s Wedding parables were about a Wedding banquet, & not about a Wedding at all. These parables that Yeshua taught were primarily about Guests at a special Wedding banquet, where the bests of foods will be served. Study Yeshua s parables: Matthew 22:1-14; Matthew 25:11, 12; Luke 12: 35-37; Luke 14:8-24; Revelation 19:9; and Isaiah 25:6-10. And then study Yeshua s parables about His Bride and their Wedding: found in Matthew 25: 1-10; Matthew 24:42-47; Luke 12:40-44; and Revelation 19:7, 8. Most believers in Yeshua s Body are not His Bride! Many are the blessed Guests at the Marriage Supper of the Lamb! Revelation 19:9 The Church is Yeshua s Body! Ephesians 1:22, 23 The Marriage Supper of the Lamb is a Celebration that takes place long after the actual Wedding Ceremony and Festivities that will follow in Heaven, and even after the Honeymoon in Heaven. The Marriage Supper of the Lamb will be that Great Celebration Feast which will be held on earth in Jerusalem, &which will launch the Millennial Reign of Yeshua & His Wife (Bride) for 1000 years. The best way to describe the Body of Messiah is that each member is a divine Jewel in Yeshua s Body, the One New Man. However, Yeshua s Bride are those believers who have made it into the very Heart of God. They are those believers who have totally surrendered and sold out to their Bridegroom King! They are the ones who have put Yeshua first in every area of their life. They are the ones who desire to be with Him only, in His Presence, waiting on Him, sitting before Him, just serving and obeying Him. 31

32 They also are the ones whom Yeshua can trust the most with His hardest, most difficult assignments, for the Gospel to go forth for the Salvation of others. They are the ones who obey His every Command, even if it should cost them their very lives. They take up their crosses daily. They follow only Him, their Wonderful Bridegroom King Yeshua, as they walk this narrow road leading into Life! Matthew 10:38; 16:24; Mark 8:34; Luke 9:23; 14:27 They are His true lovers, who love their King above all else. These are His closest friends, who respond to His every Word. They are also His high priests in the Melchi-Zedek Priesthood. All the other believers are priests in the Melchi-Zedek Priesthood. God s Glorious Church is His Body; it is not His Bride! that He might present her to Himself a Glorious Church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish. Ephesians 5:27 God s Glorious Church is Yeshua s Body on the earth. His Beloved Bride are those who have made themselves ready! Both men and women, Jews & Gentiles, will be Yeshua s Bride And as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so shall your God Rejoice over you. Isaiah 62:5 32

33 What is the main focus of Yeshua s Mystery Bride? I count all things loss that I might know Him Philippians 3:10 to know the Love of Messiah which passes knowledge Ephesians 3:19 and His Wife has made herself ready Revelation 19:7 I must decrease and He must increase John 3:30 God is not a respector of persons The Bridal position in Yeshua s Body is open for all believers to attain to, to press into, and to realize! For it is the place of real intimacy in the very Heart of God; the place for the passionate lovers of our Bridegroom King! The Holy Spirit is the One doing the work in us through our continual surrender and daily seeking God, and just loving Yeshua. Yeshua s Bride is a collective Group of the most inner circle of Yeshua s best and closest men and women friends. For example: the disciple John. She is the Heart of the Body of Yeshua; She is the five virgins who have trimmed their lamps, and have kept them burning with fresh oil. (Matthew 25:10) She is made up of Jews, Arabs, and Gentiles from all of the nations of the earth. She has overcome the world, the flesh, and the devil. Yeshua s Bride is the two loaf offering, the fulfillment of the Feast of First Fruits of Wheat Harvest. She is truly Yeshua s best worshippers, front line warriors, intercessors, fearless ones, sold out, surrendered, faithful, obedient, desperate only for Him, putting Him first in everything, in all areas of her life. She is made up of both Jewish and Gentile believers, friends united in love, and working together! She loves others more than herself, for whom she has laid down her life. She loves the God of Israel and Israel with all her heart, soul, strength, and might; and she, like her Bridegroom, also loves both the Jewish and Arab peoples alike, with all her heart. Knowing Yeshua intimately is the vital necessity of her life! 33

34 His Bride wears a white robe made up of fine linen, because of all her righteous acts; Yeshua s Bride knows that it is imperative that her robe be washed daily in the Blood of the Lamb, to remove every spot and blemish (living a repentive and humble life style). She will live forever with Her Bridegoom King Yeshua, starting in the Holy of Holies in Heaven. She is loyal to those she serves! She is always the first to volunteer for the Great Commission; to go out into all the world and make disciples of all the nations for her Bridegroom King. His Bride are those believers who are called, chosen, and faithful! Revelation 17:14 Her Bridegroom has become Everything to her. Many are called, few are chosen. His Bride has Yeshua s name, and Yeshua s Father s name, and the name of New Jerusalem written on Her forehead: Ezekiel 9:4; Revelation 3:12; Revelation 7:3; Revelation 14:1; Revelation 22:4 Yeshua s Bride is seen in many places in the Song of Solomon: I am my Beloved s and my Beloved is mine. Song of Solomon 6:3 My Beloved is mine and I am His. Song of Solomon 1:16 Hebrews 2:10 For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the Captain of their Salvation perfect through sufferings. His Bride knows that she is called to follow in Yeshua s footsteps. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and the Gospel s, will save it (keep his life unto Everlasting Life). Mark 8:35 He who Overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son! Revelation 21:7 34

35 Then the Kingdom of Heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the Bridegroom. Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish. Those who were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them. But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. But while the Bridegroom was delayed, they all slumbered and slept. And at Midnight (in the middle of the night) a cry was heard, Behold, the Bridegroom is coming, go out to meet Him! Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said to the wise, Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out. [oil: intimacy with God + doing God s work] But the wise answered, saying, No, lest there should not be enough for us and you, but go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves. And while they went to buy, the Bridegroom came. And those who were ready went in with Him to the Wedding; and the door was shut! (to be ready: surrendered & being changed in God s Presence daily) Afterwards the other virgins came also, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us! But He answered and said, Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you (you are not My Bride)! Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming (first for His Bride; and later returning to earth with His Wife, and all the rest of His Armies). Matthew 25:1-13 For the Kingdom of Heaven is like a Man traveling to a far country, who called His own servants and delivered His goods to them. And to one He gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, to each according to his own ability; and immediately He went on a journey. Then he who had received the five talents went and traded with them, and made another five talents. two gained two more But he who had received one talent went and hid his Lord s money. After a long time the Lord of those servants came and settled accounts with them. 35

36 So he who had received five talents came and brought five other talents, saying, Lord, You delivered to me five talents; look, I have gained five more talents besides them. His Lord said to him, Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the Joy of your Lord! He also who had received two talents came and said, Lord, You delivered to me two talents; look, I have gained two more talents besides them. His Lord said to him, Well done, good and faithful servant; you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the Joy of your Lord! (Yeshua may be specifically referring here to His Wedding.) Then he who had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew you to be a hard Man, reaping where You have not sown, and gathering where You have not scattered seed. And I was afraid, and went and hid Your talent in the ground. Look, there You have what is Yours. But his Lord answered and said to him, You wicked and lazy servant, you knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not scattered seed. So you ought to have deposited My money with the bankers, and at My coming I would have received back My own with interest. So take the talent from him, and give it to him who has ten talents. For to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away. And cast the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness. (Matthew 13:12) There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Matthew 25:

37 Yeshua told us clearly that the His Bride went in with Him to His Wedding (in Heaven) at Midnight! (in the Greek translation it says: in the middle of the night!) Matthew 25:6, 10 Matthew 24:42, Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming. Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect. Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his master made ruler over his household, to give them food in due season? Blessed is that servant whom his Master, when He comes, will find so doing. Assuredly, I say to you that He will make him ruler over all His goods. Luke 12:40-44 Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect. Then Peter said to Him, Lord, do You speak this parable only to us, or to all people? And the Lord said, Who then is that faithful and wise steward Luke 19:13... Occupy (do business) till I come! But before I proceed any further with more revelations, I need to make this very clear statement Yeshua s Bride is not raptured or caught up or taken up into Heaven at pre tribulation, or mid tribulation, or post tribulation! But Yeshua s Bride will be taken up to Heaven! All the above bible theories are just that; they are only just theories, for they are all missing many major scriptural keys needed for the correct answer, such as the many mysteries which are found in the Seven Feasts of the LORD (Leviticus 23), & the mysteries found in the Shofar of God, 10 places where Yeshua sounds the Shofar. 37

38 Yeshua said to 5 out of 10 virgins, I don t know you! To others He said, I never knew you, depart from Me! Matthew 25:12; 41; Matthew 7:13-13; Luke 13:23-29 How can we make sure that we are those whom Yeshua knows? By putting Yeshua first, through true surrender, and real intimacy, by our close fellowship with Him, and by doing the works of God! What shall we do that we may work the works of God? This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent. John 6:28, 29 (and Ephesians 2:10) Not everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the Kingdom of Heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in Heaven. Many will say to Me in that Day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name? And then I will declare to them, I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness! Matthew 7:21-23 (Luke 13:27; Matthew 12:50) Matthew 25:31-46 When the Son of Man comes in His Glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the Throne of His Glory. Then the King will say to those on His right hand, Come, you Blessed of My Father, Inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world! For I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me. Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You? And the King will answer and say to them, Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren (especially the Jews), you did it to Me. 38

40 Growing into true Sonship from Orphanhood! Yeshua spoke this to His disciples (John 14:18) I will not leave you orphans, I will come to you! If all His disciples were still orphans after 3 ½ years with Yeshua, how much influence does this orphan spirit behavior really have on each one of us today in the Body of Messiah? The whole world is functioning under an orphan-like behavior. You can easily identify this behavior operating, perhaps in yourself and in others around you. What are some characteristics of this orphan behavior? Self willed; driven; striving; one-up-man-ship; judgmental; critical; envious and jealous of others; prideful; needing attention; needing to put others down in order to raise yourself up; getting attention through one s works for God; competitive; being the doer; needing to always defend yourself; needing to be the center of attention; having it all together; needing to be right; to be a man ; strong and tough, without showing any weaknesses; needing to be in control; needing to impress or influence others; always needing things to be in right order; perfectionism; independent nature; needing to be the leader; the best; the fastest auto driver, etc Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to Life, and there are few who find it. every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. Therefore you will know them by their fruits. Matthew 7:14, 17, 18, 20 For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Romans 8:6 40

41 What is the cure for Overcoming this Orphan behavior? Yeshua told us, I will come to you! We really need to get into God s Presence, and just stay there, and be filled with His Love, and to be changed by His Holy Spirit into true sons of God. To follow Yeshua, we must daily take up our cross and lose our life. (Matthew 10:38; 16:24; Mark 8:34; Luke 9:23) When He had called the people to Himself, with His disciples also, He said to them, Whoever desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. Whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and the Gospel's will save it. Mark 8:34, 35 Then He said to them all, If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me. Luke 9:23 What are some of the qualities of true sonship with God? Choosing to spend your priority time first in the Presence of God. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. Romans 8:14 But not so among you; on the contrary, he who is greatest among you, let him be as the younger, & he who governs as he who serves. For who is greater, he who sits at the table, or he who serves? Is it not he who sits at the table? Yet I am among you as the One who serves. Luke 22:26, 27 He who is greatest among you shall be your servant. Matthew 23:11 (and 18:4; Mark 9:35; Luke 9:48) But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy. James 3:17 I have been crucified with Messiah; it is no longer I who live, but Messiah who lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in (the faith of) the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. Galatians 2:20 41

42 This is My Commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down your life for your friends. You are My friends if you do whatever I Command you. No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you. John 15:

43 If anyone loves Me, he will keep My Word. And My Father will Love him. And we will come to him, and make Our home with him. John 14:23 As My Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love. If you keep My Commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father s Commandments and abide in His love. John 15:9, 10 We love Him because He first loved us. 1 st John 4:19 43

44 If you love Me, keep My Commandments. John 14:15 44

45 Love suffers long and is kind; Love does not envy; Love does not parade itself, Love is not puffed up; Love does not behave rudely, Love does not seek its own, Love is not provoked, Love thinks no evil; Love does not rejoice in iniquity, but Love rejoices in the truth; Love bears all things, Love believes all things, Love hopes all things, Love endures all things. Love never fails. Now abide Faith, Hope, Love, these three. But the greatest of these is Love. 1 st Corinthians 13:4-8, 13 45

46 A poem by Faith (Feryl) Christine Honorof written December 31, 2009 His Bride Out of the suffering and the sacrifice, Father, You brought forth a Bride for Your Son. A Bride in His Likeness, holy and pure. A Bride who can walk with God; son s and daughter s, for Your delight. What a glorious Mystery, what a beautiful idea, that God would have a Bride. 46

47 Where are we in God s Prophetic Time Table? Iran s constant and very active nuclear threat against Israel and against many other nations must be dealt with as soon as possible! I believe we are now very close to the Gog Magog War found in Ezekiel 38, 39. God had been holding back this major Middle East War with Russia and Iran, & many other Arab nations. Iran, coming as foot soldiers means their nuclear power was destroyed or they would have annihilated Israel. This may have been the catalyst for the War. After God wins this War everything will change in Israel. In 2007, during a 21 day food fast, the following scripture from Daniel 9:25 jumped off the page of the Bible with an understanding in my spirit that the dates mentioned in this passage are really two different events; the two different comings of our Lord Yeshua. Seventy weeks are determined for your people and for your holy city (Jerusalem), to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, to bring in Everlasting Righteousness, and to seal up vision and prophecy, and to anoint the Most Holy. Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the Word to restore and to build Jerusalem until (to) the Anointed One (Messiah), the Prince, shall be seven Sevens (49) and sixty two Sevens (434 years): the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublesome times. And after sixty two Sevens the Messiah shall be cut off, but not for Himself. And the people of the prince (the anti-christ) who is to come shall destroy the city and the Sanctuary; and the end of it shall be with a flood, and till the end of the war desolations are determined. And he (the anti-christ) shall confirm a covenant with many for one Week. And in the middle of the Week he shall cause the sacrifice and the offering to cease, & on the wing of abominations, he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, which is determined shall be poured out on the desolate. Daniel 9:24-27 (read Daniel 11:23-37) I believe these sixty two Sevens (434) in verse 26 refers to Yeshua s first coming and His Crucifixion. And also I believe the seven Sevens refers to when Jerusalem came back into Jewish hands, June 7 th, Seven Sevens then ended on Yom Kippur, in Thus Daniel s 70 th Week, the last seven years before our Lord Yeshua returns to earth, may begin very soon. 47

48 What may cause Daniel s 70 th Week to begin? I believe Gog Magog War! For at the end of this War there will be seven years of burning weapons. Did the Seven Weeks of Daniel 9:25 begin on June 7 th, 1967, when Jerusalem came back into Jewish hands, & conclude on Yom Kippur, 2015? If this is correct, we know much more of God s End Time Prophetic calendar: Daniel s 70 th Week could begin any time! In 2008, Mark Blitz, a Messianic Jewish pastor went on NASA Eclipse Website for solar and lunar eclipses, and discovered in the years 1967 and 1968 that lunar eclipses occurred on God s biblical feast days. On Passover, April 24 th, and then on October 18 th, just before Succoth, He found this repeated in 1968 April 13 th, the first day of the Feast Unleavened Bread, day after Passover) and October 6 th, the day before Succoth. Mark also found in 2014 and 2015, that lunar eclipses again fell on these same feast days of the LORD! 2014, April 15 th, Passover and on October 8 th, the day before Succoth. In the year 2015 two lunar eclipses fell on April 4 th, first day of Unleavened Bread, and on September 28 th, exactly on Succoth, 15 th of Tishri. Mark Blitz s discoveries on the NASA Eclipse Website was a confirmation of what I had been shown only the year before began with a lunar eclipse on Passover, and 48 years later had another total lunar eclipse of Succoth, in However, I had concluded differently, from the day Jerusalem had come back into Jewish hands, June 7 th, 1967, and had added 7 weeks of years, or 49 biblical years of 360 days per year + leap years, bringing the date to Yom Kippur, I published my findings in These God Signs of lunar eclipses on the Feasts of the LORD are extremely rare, and will not happen again in this 21 st Century. On June 16, 1999, God showed me two visions of the coming Great World Revival from Jerusalem, which will reach the whole earth, beginning in the Hinnom Valley. In 1917, God liberated Jerusalem from the Turks. Is 2017, God s Kairos year from Islam? 48

49 The prophet Joel wrote about the sun turning into darkness and the moon into blood just before the Great and terrible Day of the LORD comes, just prior to the return of our Lord Yeshua: And it shall come to pass afterward that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh. Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy; your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions. And also on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days. And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood and fire and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the Great and awesome Day of the LORD. And it shall come to pass that whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved. For in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there shall be deliverance, as the LORD has said, among the remnant whom the LORD calls. Joel 2:28-32 (also see Isaiah 65:17, Revelation 6:12-17, Matthew 24:29, and Mark 13:24) Yeshua said to the Israeli Jews, You shall not see Me again, till you say, Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD! Luke 13:35 Is the fulfillment of this Word found anywhere in the Scriptures? Revelation 11:13 In the same hour there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city (Jerusalem) fell. In the earthquake seven thousand people were killed, and the rest were afraid and gave glory to the God of Heaven. Here we are talking about Jews in Jerusalem, both religious and secular, who have been crying out to God for many years during this reign of the anti-christ from Jerusalem. What makes giving glory there so different? They just saw the two witnesses going up to Heaven, who taught for 3 ½ years that Yeshua is the Son of God and their Messiah, plus all the other God Signs that God did through them. So I believe that this is where they finally cry out for Yeshua to return, by saying, Baruch Haba B Shem Adonai! 49

51 3 ½ years, one thousand two hunded and sixty days, forty two months, a time, times and half a time; These 3 ½ are found in ten places in the Holy Scriptures Genesis 22:15-18 Then the Angel of the LORD (Yeshua) called to Abraham a second time out of Heaven, and said, By Myself I have sworn, says the LORD, because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son, that in blessing I will bless you, and in multiplying I will multiply your descendants as the stars of the heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore; & your descendants shall possess the gate of their enemies. In your Seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice. (spoken by God, the Angel of the LORD, Yeshua, from Heaven to Abraham from just above Mount Moriah, which is today s Temple Mount area.) Deuteronomy 32:39-41, 43 Now see that I, even I, am He, and there is no God besides Me; I kill and I make alive; I wound and I heal; nor is there any who can deliver from My hand. For I raise My hand to Heaven, and say, As I live forever. If I whet My glittering Sword, and My hand takes hold on Judgment, I will render vengeance to My enemies, and repay those who hate Me. Rejoice, O Gentiles, with His people; for He will avenge the blood of His servants, and render vengeance to His adversaries; He will provide Atonement for His land and His people. Jeremiah 30:4-11 Now these are the words that the LORD spoke concerning Israel and Judah. For thus says the LORD, We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace. Ask now, and see, whether a man is ever in labor with child? So why do I see every man with his hands on his loins like a woman in labor, and all faces turned pale? Alas! For that Day is great, so that none is like it. And it is the time of Jacob s trouble, but he shall be saved out of it. For it shall come to pass in that day, says the 51

52 LORD of hosts, that I will break his yoke from your neck, and will burst your bonds. Foreigners shall no more enslave them. But they shall serve the LORD their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up for them. Therefore do not fear, O My servant Jacob, says the LORD, nor be dismayed, O Israel. For behold, I will save you from afar, and your seed from the land of their captivity. Jacob shall return, have rest and be quiet, and no one shall make him afraid. For I am with you, says the LORD, to save you. Though I make a full end of all nations where I have scattered you, yet I will not make a complete end of you. But I will correct you in Justice, and will not let you go altogether unpunished. Daniel 7:24, 25, 27 The ten horns are ten kings who shall arise from this kingdom. And another shall rise after them; he shall be different from the first ones, and shall subdue three kings. He shall speak pompous words against the Most High, shall persecute the saints of the Most High, and shall intend to change times and law. Then the saints shall be given into his hand for a time and times and half a time (3 ½ years). Then the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people, the saints of the Most High. His Kingdom is an everlasting Kingdom, & all dominions shall serve and obey Him. Daniel 9:26, 27 And after the sixty-two weeks Messiah shall be cut off, but not for Himself. And the people of the prince who is to come (from Rome) shall destroy the city (Jerusalem) and the Sanctuary. The end of it shall be with a flood, and till the end of the war desolations are determined. Then he shall confirm a covenant with many for one week. But in the middle of the week (one thousand two hundred and sixty days [1260], or 3 1/2 biblical years) he shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering. And on the wing of abominations shall be one who makes desolate, even until the consummation, which is determined, is poured out on the desolate. (Also read Daniel 8:23-25 and Daniel 11:21-31) 52

53 Daniel 11:31, 36 And forces shall be mustered by him, and they shall defile the Sanctuary Fortress; then they shall take away the daily sacrifices, & place there the abomination of desolation. Then the king shall do according to his own will. He shall exalt & magnify himself above every god, shall speak blasphemies against the God of gods, and shall prosper until the Wrath (of God) has been accomplished; for what has been determined shall be done. Daniel 12:1-3, 6, 7, At that time Michael shall stand up, the great prince who stands watch over the sons of your people; and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation, even to that time. And at that time your people shall be delivered, every one who is found written in the Book. And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to Everlasting Life, some to shame & Everlasting contempt. Those who are wise shall shine like the brightness of the firmament, and those who turn many to righteousness like the stars forever and ever. And one said to the Man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, How long shall the fulfillment of these wonders be? Then I heard the Man clothed in linen (Yeshua), who was above the waters of the river, when he held up His right hand and His left hand to Heaven, and swore by Him who lives forever, that it shall be for a time, times, and half a time (3 ½); and when the power of the holy people has been completely shattered, all these things shall be finished. Many shall be purified, made white, and refined, but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand, but the wise shall understand! And from the time that the daily sacrifice is taken away, and the abomination of desolation is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred and ninety days (1290 days, + 30 days more than 3 ½ years). Blessed is he who waits, and comes to the one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days (+ 75). But you, go your way till the end; for you shall rest, and will arise to your inheritance at the end of days. [Also see Deuteronomy 32:40 and Revelation 10:5. 6, where this Mighty One raises His hand to Heaven.] 53

54 Micah 4:10 Be in pain, and labor to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in birth pangs. For now you shall go forth from the city, you shall dwell in the field, and to Babylon you shall go. There you shall be delivered; there the LORD will redeem you from the hand of your enemies. Zechariah 4:2-5, And he said to me, What do you see? So I said, I am looking, and there is a lampstand of solid gold with a bowl on top of it, and on the stand seven lamps with seven pipes to the seven lamps. Two olive trees are by it, one at the right of the bowl and the other at its left. So I answered and spoke to the angel who talked with me, saying, What are these, my lord? Then the angel who talked with me answered and said to me, Do you not know what these are? And I said, No, my Lord. Then I answered and said to him, What are these two olive trees, at the right of the lampstand and at its left? And I further answered and said to him, What are these two olive branches that drip into the receptacles of the two gold pipes from which the golden oil drains? Then he answered me and said, Do you not know what these are? And I said, No, my Lord. So he said, These are the two anointed (with oil) ones, who stand beside the Lord of the whole earth. Matthew 24:9-31 Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name s sake. And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. But he who endures to the end shall be saved! And this Gospel of the Kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, & then the end will come. Therefore when you see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (whoever reads, let him understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. Let him who is on the housetop 54

55 not go down to take anything out of his house. And let him who is in the field not go back to get his clothes. But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days! And pray that your flight may not be in winter or on the Sabbath. For then there will be Great Tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect s sake those days will be shortened. (22) Then if anyone says to you, Look, here is the Christ! or there! do not believe it. For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. See, I have told you beforehand. Therefore if they say to you, Look, He is in the desert! do not go out; or Look, He is in the inner rooms! do not believe it. For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so also will be the coming of the Son of Man. For wherever the carcass is, there the eagles will be gathered together. Immediately after the Tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Then the Sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the Clouds of heaven with Power and Great Glory. And He will send His angels with a Great Sound of a Trumpet (Shofar), and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. Luke 21:24-27 And they will fall by the edge of the sword, and be led away captive into all nations. And Jerusalem will be trampled by Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled. And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring; men s hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a Cloud with Power and Great Glory. 55

56 2 nd Thessalonians 2:3, 4, 7-10 Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the Temple of God, showing himself that he is God. For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until he is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the Truth, that they might be saved. (Read Daniel 11:31-36) James 5:17 Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, & he prayed earnestly that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months (3 ½ years). (also found in Luke 4:25) Revelation 10:1-7 I saw still another Mighty Angel coming down from Heaven, clothed with a cloud. And a rainbow was on His head, His face was like the sun, and His feet like pillars of fire. He had a little book open in His hand. And He set His right foot on the sea and His left foot on the land, and cried with a loud voice, as when a Lion Roars. When He cried out, seven thunders uttered their voices. Now when the seven thunders uttered their voices, I was about to write; but I heard a voice from Heaven saying to me, Seal up the things which the seven thunders uttered, and do not write them. The Angel whom I saw standing on the sea and on the land raised up His Hand to Heaven and swore by Him who lives forever and ever, who created heaven and the things that are in it, the earth and the things that are in it, and the sea and the things that are in it, that there should be delay no longer, but in the days of the sounding of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound, the Mystery of God would be finished, as He declared to His servants the prophets. (Yeshua is this Mighty Angel!) 56

57 Revelation 11:2-7, 11, 12 But leave out the court which is outside the Temple, and do not measure it, for it has been given to the Gentiles. And they will tread the holy city (Jerusalem) underfoot for forty-two months. (The Gentiles will tread the Holy City of Jerusalem for those last 3 ½ years.) And I will give Power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy one thousand two hundred and sixty days (3 ½ years), clothed in sackcloth. These are the two olive trees and the two lampstands standing before the God of the earth. And if anyone wants to harm them, fire proceeds from their mouth and devours their enemies. And if anyone wants to harm them, he must be killed in this manner. These have Power to shut heaven, so that no rain falls in the days of their prophecy; and they have Power over waters to turn them to blood, and to strike the earth with all plagues, as often as they desire. When they finish their testimony, the beast that ascends out of the bottomless pit will make war against them, overcome them, and kill them. Now after the three and a half days the breath of Life from God entered them, and they stood on their feet, and great fear fell on those who saw them. And they heard a loud voice from Heaven saying to them, Come up here. And they ascended to Heaven in a cloud, and their enemies saw them. (They began from the 2 ½ year until the 6 th year of the last 7 years of Daniel s 70 Week) [also read Deuteronomy 24:5; Isaiah 34:8; Isaiah 63:4] Revelation 12:3-6, And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems on his heads. His tail drew a third of the stars of heaven and threw them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman (Israel) who was ready to give birth, to devour her Child as soon as it was born. She bore a male Child who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron. And her Child was caught up to God and His Throne. Then the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, that they should feed her there one thousand two hundred & sixty (1260) days. (3 ½ years) 57

58 Now when the dragon saw that he had been cast to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male Child. But the woman was given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness to her place, where she is nourished for a time and times and half a time (3 ½), from the presence of the serpent. So the serpent spewed water out of his mouth like a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away by the flood. But the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the flood which the dragon had spewed out of his mouth. And the dragon was enraged with the woman, and he went to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep the commandments of God and have testimony of Yeshua the Messiah. (The woman is Israel; this will be the last 3 ½ years.) Revelation 13:1-8 Then I stood on the sand of the sea. And I saw a beast rising up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his horns ten crowns, and on his heads a blasphemous name. Now the beast which I saw was like a leopard, his feet were like the feet of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority. And I saw one of his heads as if it had been mortally wounded, and his deadly wound was healed. And all the world marveled and followed the beast. So they worshiped the dragon who gave authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him? And he was given a mouth speaking great things & blasphemies, & he was given authority to continue for forty-two months (3 ½). Then he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who dwell in Heaven. It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every tribe, tongue, and nation. All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. (The anti-christ will also reign from the Jerusalem Temple during the last 3 ½ years of Daniel s 70 th Week.) 58

59 Let s take a closer look at the ministry of the two witnesses of Revelation 11:3-12, and also the 7 year reign of the anti-christ Matthew 17:10, 11 And His disciples asked Him, saying, Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first? Yeshua answered and said to them, Indeed, Elijah is coming first and will restore all things! (Mark 9:12) also read Matthew 11:14 We know that the two witnesses minister for 3 ½ years! The anti-christ begins his reign of terror from Jerusalem over this planet the middle of a seven year covenant, which is the last 3 ½ years for our planet, until he is destroyed by Yeshua at His return. Are the 3 ½ years of the two witnesses s the same years as the last 3 ½ years of the anti-christ? No! For the two witnesses have died and are taken up into Heaven (Revelation 11:12) just before the 7 th angel sounds the seventh trumpet. This is still while the anti-christ is reigning in power over the earth from Jerusalem. Could these two witnesses (in the spirit & power of Moses & Elijah) also be the two witnesses at Yeshua s Wedding in Heaven? Yes. Lord Yeshua and His Wife will have a Honeymoon, which by all Scriptures indicate it will last for one year. Therefore I believe these two witnesses will begin their ministry one year before anti- Christ begins his reign of terror from Jerusalem at mid tribulation; which is about one year before the middle of the seven years of the anti-christ s reign, or 2 ½ years after the beginning of Daniel s 70 th Week of seven years. (see Daniel 9:27; 11:23; and 12:7) When the Honeymoon of Yeshua and His Bride begins in Heaven, the anti-christ will already have been reigning on earth in power about six years, & will have murdered a great many of God s saints. For by the middle of his seven year covenant, he will have then set up the abomination of desolation in the Jewish Orthodox Temple on the Temple Mount (Mount Moriah) area in Jerusalem. 59

60 Daniel 11:21, 23 And in his place shall arise a vile person, to whom they will not give the honor of royalty; but he shall come in peaceably, and seize the kingdom by intrigue. And after the league is made with him he shall act deceitfully, for he shall come up, and become strong with a small number of people. (Daniel 8:23-25) 11:41 He shall also enter the Glorious Land, and many countries shall be overthrown; but these shall escape from his hand, Edom (Esau), Moab, and the prominent people of Ammon. I believe the remnant of Yeshua s Bride is still on earth until the Midnight hour, late into the Great Tribulation years of anti-christ. And She is taken to Heaven on Shavuot, in the 6 th year, just about 3 months before the two witnesses end their 3 ½ years of ministry, and are killed, & are then raised into Heaven. Revelation 11:1-12 And they Overcame him by the Blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives (even) to the death. Revelation 12:11 60

61 When is the fullness of Yeshua s Bride taken to Heaven? The Bridegroom came for His Bride at the Midnight Hour What is this Midnight Hour and When is this Midnight Hour, or as it says in the Greek, the middle of the night? This is just prior to the release of God s Wrath upon our planet. This will happen late in the great tribulation years of anti-christ, long after he has stopped the sacrifices & offerings in the Orthodox Jewish Temple on the Jerusalem Temple Mount (Mount Moriah), & set up the abomination of desolation in that Orthodox Temple. John 9:4 I must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; the night is coming when no one can work. On which of the Feast of the Seven Feasts of the LORD does Yeshua call the last remnant of His Bride up into Heaven? When is it during the seven years of the Anti-Christ s evil reign? All members of Yeshua s Body and His Bride-to-be who have died have gone to Heaven for almost two thousand years, preparing for this Marriage Ceremony, since Yeshua first opened up the Way for us by dying, & going to Heaven and sending God s Holy Spirit. This will continue until the Mighty Messenger of Revelation 10 puts His right foot on the sea and His left foot on the land, and He cries with a loud Voice, as when a Lion s Roars! And then speaks that there will be delay no longer Yeshua s Bride and Body will continue going up into Heaven until all members of Yeshua s Bride are in Heaven. And like Ester, many are there now, preparing for their Marriage with the Lamb. Then just before the seventh angel sounds the seventh trumpet, the Marriage Ceremony in Heaven of the Lamb with His Bride will be completed! (Revelation 10:7, Revelation 11:15; Rev 19:7) [To be absent from the Body is to be present with the Lord.] 61

62 Matthew 25:5 tells us that the Bridegroom delayed His coming. Revelation 10:3-7 says something very important happens when this Mighty Messenger (Yeshua) cries with a loud Voice, as when a Lion Roars and then seven thunders utter their voices. John is told not to write what happened. And then this Mighty Messenger says that now there would be delay no longer because of what had happened, and the Mystery of God would now be finished when the 7 th angel sounds the 7 th trumpet in Heaven. (Revelation 11:15) What is this Great Mystery of God that He told His prophets? The Marriage Ceremony in Heaven! God has created His Perfect Bride from men and women who have offered themselves to God for this Work of the Holy Spirit! This began 6000 years ago when God first created Adam, and then formed Eve out of Adam s side. And then when Yeshua s heart was pierced with a spear, because of His sinless Blood, His Bride was then created out of His side! I believe that just before the sounding of the seventh trumpet, the Marriage Ceremony will have been completed in Heaven on this Feast of Trumpets! For many years I have believed Yeshua s Bride would be taken up into Heaven at Midnight late in the End Times. That this would be during the Great Tribulation years of the Anti-Christ, when believers would not be able to buy or sell food, water, or anything else, and would die for their faith in Yeshua instead of taking the mark of the beast on their right hand or on their forehead. I knew that Yeshua s Bride are His best front-line soldiers, those He can trust fully in carrying out His hardest and most difficult assignments. I believe that Yeshua s remnant Bride will go to Heaven 2 ½ years after the Anti-Christ begins his 3 ½ years reign of terror from Jerusalem, which he begins immediately after the middle of his 7 year covenant. Daniel 9:27 This Marriage will happen 3 months later, just before the Wrath of God is released onto earth, which will be a real Midnight for all those evil people still alive on the earth. [See Revelation 11:18] 62

63 In any case, I believe Yeshua s remnant Bride still alive on earth will be collectively taken up together into Heaven when Yeshua Cries with a loud Voice like a Lion s Roar, prior to His Wedding. God Loves all of us with an Everlasting Love, and God is so Good to us! Yeshua said of His Father, No one is Good but One, and that is God! Matthew 19:17 God is LOVE! (1 John 4:16) How Great must be Yeshua s Love for His Bride. With what I now read in the Scriptures regarding the great and terrible atrocities that will be coming upon the earth during the evil reign of the anti-christ, especially after he stops the Aaronic priests sacrifices in the Jerusalem Temple on Mount Moriah, and sets up the abomination of desolation there, the Scriptures indicate that Yeshua calls His Bride up into Heaven late, at the Midnight Hour. This will be late in the last 3 ½ years of the anti-christ s reign of terror, the years He called the Great Tribulation years. Matthew 24:9-21 Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name s sake. And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. But he who endures to the end shall be saved. And this Gospel of the Kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come. Therefore when you see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (whoever reads, let him understand), for then there will be Great Tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect s sake those days will be shortened. The Great Tribulation come from the anti-christ. But Wrath comes from God to destroy the evil ones, and to save His elect! The Wrath of God is also called the Great Day of the LORD! Yeshua calls His Bride to Heaven just before release of His Wrath! 63

64 Revelation 10:1-3 I saw still another Mighty Angel (or Messenger, Yeshua, Himself) coming down from Heaven, clothed with a cloud. And a rainbow was on His head, His face was like the sun, and His feet like pillars of fire. He had a little book open in His hand. And He set His right foot on the sea and His left foot on the land, and Cried with a loud Voice, as when a Lion Roars. A similar description of this Mighty Messenger is found in Genesis 22:16-18; Deuteronomy 32:40; Daniel 12:7; Revelation 1:16; and Revelation 14: Other appearances of this Mighty Messenger, Yeshua Daniel 10:5, 6 I lifted my eyes and looked, and behold, a certain Man clothed in linen, whose waist was girded with gold of Uphaz! His body was like beryl, His face like the appearance of lightning, His eyes like torches of fire, His arms and feet like burnished bronze in color, and the sound of His Words like the Voice of a multitude. Revelation 5:5 Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has prevailed to open the scroll and to loose its seven seals. 64

65 Revelation 1:13-16 and in the midst of the seven lampstands One like the Son of Man clothed with a garment down to the feet and girded about the chest with a golden band. His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and His eyes like a flame of fire; His feet were like fine brass, as if refined in a furnace, and His Voice as the sound of many waters; He had in His right hand seven stars, out of His mouth went a sharp two-edged Sword, and His countenance was like the Sun shining in its strength! On April 10, 1982, this author was raised up into Heaven & stood before Yeshua, the King of Glory & LORD of hosts! His whole being was like the Sun blazing in full Glory! The only feature Richard could see was His simple golden crown. He delivered Richard out of years of drug and occult destructions. 65

66 Do these two Scriptures below from Matthew & Luke apply to Yeshua s Bride being called up to Heaven for the Marriage; or do they apply to His Body being gathered to Himself at His return? Matthew 24:36-47 But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only. But as the days of Noah were, so also will be the Coming of the Son of Man. For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will be the coming of the Son of Man. Then two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left. Two women will be grinding at the mill; one will be taken and the other left. Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming. But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect. Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his Master made ruler over His household, to give them food in due season? Blessed is that servant whom his Master, when He comes, will find so doing. Assuredly, I say to you that He will make him ruler over all His goods. Luke 17:26-37 And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man. They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, & the flood came and destroyed them all. Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot. They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. Even so will it be in the Day when the Son of Man is revealed. In that day, he who is on the housetop, and his goods are in the house, let him not come down to take them away. And likewise the one who is in the field, let him not turn back. Remember Lot's wife. Whoever seeks to save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life will preserve it. I tell you, in that night there will be two men in one bed; the one will be taken and the other will be left. Two women will be grinding together; the one will be taken and the other left. Two men will be in the field; the one will be taken and the other left. And they answered and said to Him, Where, Lord (are they taken)? So He said to them, Wherever the Body is, there the eagles will be gathered together (in the heaven s). Also see Matthew 24:31; Mark 13:27; Revelation 14:

67 On What Feast will Yeshua s Bride be taken up to Heaven? On which Feast of the Seven Feasts of the LORD? Yeshua s Bride will be taken up into Heaven on Shavuot, on the Feast of First Fruits of wheat; as Yeshua went to Heaven on Passover, on the Feast of First Fruits of barley [Leviticus 23:10]! (Leviticus 23:15-22 and Deuteronomy 16:9-12) The Feast of Shavuot has been used two times prior 1) First at Mount Sinai, Exodus 19 and 20. What did it mean? This was God s Marriage Betrothal call to the peoples of earth, to a group of 2 to 3 million Jews + a mixed multitude of Gentiles gathered together at the base of Mount Sinai, with the sounding of the first Shofar of God, the First Trump (on a Year of Jubilee)! God then divorced Israel, but it was not a complete divorse, Return, backsliding Israel Return, O backsliding children for I am Married to you. Jeremiah 3:1, 7, 8, 11, 14 2) The Upper Room Fifty days after Yeshua rose from the dead on the Feast of First Fruits of barley (Leviticus 23:10) then was the Feast of Shavuot, when the Outpouring of the Holy Spirit came down on 120 believers in the Upper Room. What did that mean? That was the re-marriage Betrothal call of God to Israel and to all those from the nations who are called to this Marriage from among born again believers. This Marriage will be held at the End of the Age (6000 years), & lasts for Eternity, 1000 years on earth, and then God s Heavenly City of New Jerusalem will come down. Feast of First Fruits Yeshua s death at Passover, and then His Resurrection on the biblical day of the Feast of first fruits of barley during Passover (Leviticus 23:10), as the first fruits from the dead. Then counting the omer for 50 days, leading up to the next Feast 3) Feast of First Fruits of wheat harvest, Shavuot, is the Feast when Yeshua s Bride will be taken up (raptured) into Heaven. 67

68 Yeshua s Bride is God s First Fruits Harvest! Leviticus 23:10, 15, 16, 17 Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, When you come into the land which I give to you, and reap its harvest, then you shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits (unleavened barley) of your harvest. And (then) you shall count for yourselves count fifty days to the day after the seventh Sabbath; then you shall offer a new grain offering to the LORD. You shall bring from your dwellings two wave loaves of two-tenths of an ephah. They shall be of fine flour; they shall be baked with leaven (wheat). Yeshua s Bride is the firstfruits to the LORD! Revelation 7:4 and 14:1 Yeshua is the Firstfruits of Passover, of the barley Harvest Yeshua s Bride will be Firstfruits of Shavuot, of the wheat Harvest Revelation 7:2-4 Then I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God. And he cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it was granted to harm the earth and the sea, saying, Do not harm the earth, the sea, or the trees till we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads. And I heard the number of those who were sealed. One hundred and forty-four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel were sealed... (12,000 per tribe from 12 tribes of Israel: the first wave loaf!) Revelation 14:1-5 Then I looked, and behold, a Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having His Father s name written on their foreheads. And I heard a voice from Heaven, like the voice of many waters, and like the voice of loud thunder. And I heard the sound of harpists playing their harps. They sang as it were a new song before the Throne, before the four living creatures, and the elders; and no one could learn that song except the hundred and forty-four thousand who were redeemed from the earth. These are the ones who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever He goes. These were redeemed from among men, being firstfruits to God and to the Lamb. And in their mouth was found no deceit, for they are without fault before the throne of God. (These 144,000 are from the nations: they are the second wave loaf!) 68

69 Could Yeshua s Bride be among the Martyrs of Revelation 7? After these things I looked, and behold a Great Multitude (in Heaven) which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the Throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, saying, Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the Throne, and to the Lamb! Then one of the elders answered, saying to me, Who are these arrayed in white robes, and where did they come from? And I said to him, Sir, you know. So he said to me, These are the ones who come out of the Great Tribulation, and washed their robes and made them white in the Blood of the Lamb! Therefore they are before the Throne of God, and serve Him day and night in His Temple. And He who sits on the Throne will dwell among them. They shall neither hunger anymore nor thirst anymore; the sun shall not strike them, nor any heat; for the Lamb who is in the midst of the Throne will Shepherd them, and lead them to Living Fountains of Waters. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes. Revelation 7:9, 10, And I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and Judgment was committed to them. Then I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their witness to Yeshua and for the word of God, who had not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received his mark on their foreheads or on their hands. And they lived and reigned with Messiah for a thousand years. Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Messiah, and shall reign with Him a thousand years. Revelation 20:4, 6 Behold, I make all things new! And He said to me, It is Done! I am the Aleph and the Tav, the Beginning and the End. I will give the Fountain of the Water of Life freely to him who thirsts. He who Overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son! Revelation 21:5, 6, 7 69

70 Yeshua s Bride is sealed with God s Name on Her Forehead! (Ezekiel 9:4 Jerusalem put a mark on the foreheads of the men who sign and cry over all the abominations that are done within it. ) And to the angel of the Church in Philadelphia (brotherly love) write, These things says He who is Holy, He who is True, He who has the Key of David, He who open and no one shuts, and shuts and no one opens. I have loved you. Because you have kept My Command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial (God s Wrath) which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth. (Malachi 3:17) Behold, I am coming quickly! Hold fast what you have, that no one may take your crown. He who Overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the Temple of My God, and he shall go out no more. I will write on him the name of My God (Father s name) and the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, which comes down out of Heaven from My God. And I will write on him My new name. Revelation 3:7, 9, Revelation 7:3 sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads. And I heard the number of those who were sealed. One hundred and fortyfour thousand of all the (12) tribes of the children of Israel were sealed... Then I looked, and behold, a Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having His Father s name written on their foreheads. They sang as it were a new song before the Throne, before the four living creatures, and the elders; and no one could learn that song except the hundred and forty-four thousand who were redeemed from the earth. These are the ones who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever He goes. These were redeemed from among men, being firstfruits to God and to the Lamb. Revelation 14:1, 3, 4 Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls filled with the seven last plagues came to me and talked with me, saying, Come, I will show you the Bride, the Lamb s Wife. And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the great city, the Holy Jerusalem, descending out of Heaven from God. Revelation 21:9, 10 And there shall be no more curse, but the Throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him. They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads! Revelation 22:3, 4 70

71 Yeshua has given us many very specific Scriptures, telling us that there are those who will escape all these things that will be coming upon the whole world, to test those who dwell upon the earth. But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with the cares of this life, and that Day come on you unexpectedly. For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth. Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man. Luke 21:34-36 Because you have kept My Command to persevere, I will also keep you from the hour of trial (God s Wrath) which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth. Behold, I am coming quickly! Hold fast what you have, that no one may take your crown. He who Overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the Temple of My God, and he shall go out no more. I will write on him the Name of My God (My Father s Name), and the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, which comes down out of Heaven from My God. And I will write on him My New Name. Revelation 3:10-12 Then those who feared the LORD spoke to one another, and the LORD listened and heard them. So a BOOK of Remembrance was written before Him, for those who fear the LORD and who meditate on His Name. They shall be Mine, says the LORD of hosts, on the Day that I make them My Jewels. And I will spare them as a man spares his own son who serves him. Then you shall again discern between the righteous and the wicked, between one who serves God and one who does not serve Him. Malachi 3:16-18 (Also read of these Jewels of God in Zechariah 9:16) God told us repeatedly that He would hide His faithful servants Zephaniah 2:3 Seek the LORD, all you meek of the earth, who have upheld His justice. Seek righteousness, seek humility. It may be that you will be hidden in the Day of the LORD s anger! 71

72 Isaiah 26:19-21 Your dead shall live; together with my dead body they shall arise. Awake and sing, you who dwell in dust; for your dew is like the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead. Come, My people, enter your chambers, and shut your doors behind you. Hide yourself, as it were, for a little moment, until the indignation is past. For behold, the LORD comes out of His place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity; the earth will also disclose her blood, and will no more cover her slain. Psalm 27:5 For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His Pavilion; in the secret place of His Tent He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon a rock. Psalm 31:20 You shall hide them in the secret place of Your Presence Psalm 95:7, 8, 11 Today, if you will hear His voice, do not harden your hearts, as in the rebellion, as in the day of trial in the wilderness. So I swore in My Wrath, They shall not enter My rest. Hebrews 4:1, 3, 9-11 Therefore, since a promise remains of entering His rest, let us fear lest any of you seem to have come short of it. For we who have believed do enter that rest, as He has said, So I swore in My Wrath, They shall not enter My rest, although the works were finished from the foundation of the world. There remains therefore a rest for the people of God. For he who has entered His rest has himself also ceased from his works as God did from His. Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall according to the same example of disobedience. To be absent from the Body and to be present with the Lord 2 Corinthians 5:8 Job 19:25, 26, 27 For I know that my Redeemer lives, and He shall stand at last on the earth. And after my skin is destroyed, this I know, that in my flesh I shall see God my eyes shall behold, and not another. Ephesians 2:6 We are seated with Messiah Yeshua in Heavenly places The two men of the Old Covenant who were taken up to Heaven by God were first Enoch and then Elijah Revelation 12:11 And they Overcame him by the Blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death. 72

73 Yeshua s Bride is taken to Heaven with other believers John 14:2, 3, 28, 29 In My Father s House are many mansions. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also! You have heard Me say to you, I am going away and coming back to you. If you loved Me, you would rejoice because I said, I am going to My Father, for My Father is greater than I. And now I have told you before it comes, that when it does come to pass, you may believe. John 16:22-24 Therefore you now have sorrow; but I will see you again and your heart will Rejoice, and your Joy no one will take from you. And in that Day you will ask Me nothing. Most assuredly, I say to you, whatever you ask My Father in My name He will give you. Until now you have asked nothing in My name. Ask, and you will receive, that your Joy may be full! John 17:24 Father, I desire that they also whom You have given Me may be with Me where I am (by Yeshua s Throne in Heaven), that they may behold My Glory, the Glory which I had with You before the world began. Psalm 50:5 Gather My saints together to Me, those who have made a Covenant with Me by sacrifice. Micah 2:13 The One (Yeshua) who breaks open will come up before them. They (the remnant) will break out, pass through the Gate, and go out by it. Their King will pass before them, and the LORD at their head. His Lord said to him, Well done, good and faithful servant; you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the Joy of your Lord! (Matthew 25:21, 23) 73

74 74

75 Yeshua s Bride will be called up to Heaven when this Mighty Messenger Roar s like a Lion Revelation 10:3 75

76 Father s Greatest Reward will go to Yeshua s Bride! Revelation 11:18 And that You should Reward Your servants the prophets and the saints, and those who fear Your name, small and great Isaiah 40:10 Behold, the Lord GOD shall come with a strong Hand, and His Arm shall rule for Him; Behold, His Reward (His Wife) is with Him, and His work before Him. Isaiah 62:11 Indeed the LORD has proclaimed to the end of the world: Say to the daughter of Zion, Surely your Salvation (Yeshua) is coming; Behold, His Reward (His Wife) is with Him, and His work before Him. Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a Rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Matthew 16:27 For the Son of Man will come in the Glory of His Father with His angels, and then He will Reward each according to his works. 1 st Corinthians 2:9 But as it is written, Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him. Revelation 2:23 (and Psalm 62:12) And I will give to each of you according to your works (given to each by the Holy Spirit). Revelation 22:12 And behold, I am coming quickly, and My Reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work. Isaiah 65:13, 14 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD, Behold, My servants shall eat Behold, My servants shall drink! Behold, My servants shall Rejoice! Behold, My servants shall sing for Joy of heart! 76

77 Let us be Glad and Rejoice and give Him Glory. For the Marriage of the Lamb has come, and His Wife has made Herself ready! And to Her it was granted to be arrayed in fine linen, clean and bright, for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints. Revelation 19:7, 8 Come, I will show you the Bride, the Lamb s Wife. Revelation 21:9 77

78 The Mystery Bridal Feast of Zichron or Yom Teruah! This Feast is when the Marriage Ceremony of Yeshua and His Wife (His Bride) will be held in Heaven! It will be concluded just as the seventh angel sounds the seventh trumpet, on this Feast of Trumpets! Very little is known about this fifth Mystery Feast of the LORD, Zichron Teruah, Leviticus 23:24. God deliberately kept the first of the three Fall Feasts a great Mystery. For the Marriage Ceremony will be held in Heaven on Zichron Teruah with trumpets sounded. When the Marriage Ceremony is completed, then the seventh angel will sound the seventh trumpet. Revelation 10:7, Revelation 11:15 This Feast of Trumpets was late renamed Rosh Ha Shannah. Could this Memorial Feast of Zichron or Yom Teruah be in commemoration to when Yeshua first sounded His Shofar over Mount Sinai, calling for His Bride to come forth from Israel and from the nations of the earth? Yes! [Psalm 89:16 Blessed are the people who know the teruah.] Leviticus 23:23-25 [the fifth Feast of the LORD ] Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, Speak to the sons of Israel, saying: In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall have a Sabbath rest, a memorial of blowing of trumpets [Zichron Teruah], a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work on it; you shall offer an offering made by fire to the LORD. Numbers 29:1-3 [the fifth Feast of the LORD, repeated ] On the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall have a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work. For you it is a day of blowing trumpets [Yom Teruah]. You shall offer a burnt offering as a sweet aroma to the LORD: one young bull, one ram, & seven lambs in their first year, without blemish. Their grain offering shall be fine flower mixed with oil: three tenths of one ephah for the bull, two tenths for the ram, and one tenth 78

79 but in the days of the sounding of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound, the Mystery of God would be finished, as He declared to His servants the prophets. Revelation 10:7 Yeshua s beloved Bride has now become His Wife! Revelation 11:15-19 Then the seventh angel sounded. And there were loud voices in Heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world have (now) become the Kingdoms of our LORD and of His Messiah, and He shall Reign forever and ever! And the twenty four elders who sat before God on their thrones fell on their faces and worshipped God, saying, We give You thanks, O LORD our God Almighty, the One who Is and who Was and who Is to Come, because You have taken Your Great Power and Reigned. The nations were angry and Your Wrath has come. And the time of the dead, that they should be Judged. And that You should reward Your servants, the prophets and the saints, and those who fear Your name both small and great. And You should destroy those who destroy the earth. Then the Temple of God was opened in Heaven, and the Ark of His Covenant was seen in His Temple. And there were noises, lightnings, thurdering, an earthquake, and great hail. 1 st Corinthians 2:9-11 But as it is written: EYE HAS NOT SEEN, NOR EAR HEARD, NOR HAVE ENTERED INTO THE HEART OF MAN THE THINGS WHICH GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM. But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. For since the beginning of the world men have not heard nor perceived by the ear, nor has the eye seen any God besides You, who acts for the one who waits for Him. Isaiah 64:4 79

80 And as the Bridegroom rejoices over the Bride, so shall your God Rejoice over you! Isaiah 62:4, 5 The LORD your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will save; He will Rejoice over you with Gladness, He will quiet you with His Love; He will Rejoice over you with Singing. Zephaniah 3:17 Yeshua s first miracle was turning the water into wine at the wedding party in Cana. (John 2:1-9) His last miracle was at the Lord s Passover; the cup of wine which represented His Blood, which would be shed to give us Everlasting Life. And as they were eating, Yeshua took bread, blessed it and broke it, and gave it to the disciples and said, Take, eat; this is My Body. Then He took the cup (of wine), and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink from it, all of you, for this is My Blood of the New Covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. But I say to you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that Day when I drink it new with you (in Heaven) in My Father s Kingdom! Matthew 26:

81 A Honeymoon that is made only in Heaven! Because of God s Great Love for His Bride, His faithful sons and daughters, it is Yeshua s greatest desire to be intimate, and to lavish God s Perfect Love upon His Beloved Bride. Behold what manner of Love our Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him. Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be. But we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is. 1 st John 3:1, 2 81

82 Why Does this Honeymoon take place in Heaven? Yeshua promised He would take His Bride to Heaven. He also promised that His Bride would be with Him in Heaven for a period of time In My Father s House are many mansions, I go to prepare a place for you Father, I desire that those whom You have given Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My Glory which You have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world. John 17:24 Yeshua s Bride, along with other members of His believing Body will be with Him in Heaven, and return with Him back to earth. But why does His Wife need a special season in Heaven? Because, on earth, as it is in Heaven! Yeshua s Wife will be trained in Heaven regarding what Heaven is like, in order to join with Her Bridegroom in bringing Heaven s dimensions of Life back down to earth when King Yeshua returns, and destroys all His enemies, & also brings the Kingdom of Heaven down into the earth. Who can imagine what this Heavenly Eternal Honeymoon experience with our Bridegroom is really going to be like? Matthew 6:10 on earth, as it is in Heaven! Luke 11:2 The Word of our God shall stand forever! Isaiah 40:8 82

83 For How Long is Yeshua and His Wife in Heaven for their Honeymoon after their Marriage Ceremony, before they return back to the earth together? Answer: Perhaps for an Eternity by Heaven s standpoint, since there is no time in Heaven. But time is still going on back down on the earth However I believe the correct Scripture answer is one year! But how can anyone possibly know this? Let s look at some scriptural basis for this answer Deuteronomy 24:5 When a man has taken a new wife, he shall not go out to war or be charged with any business; he shall be free at home one year, (in Heaven) and bring happiness to his wife whom he has taken. Isaiah 34:8 For it is the Day of the LORD s Vengeance (God s Wrath), the year of the recompense for the cause of Zion. [God s Wrath will be taking place for one year on the earth!] Isaiah 63:4 For the Day of Vengeance is in My heart, and the year of My redeemed has come. What these Scriptures reveal is that they indicate that the Day of the LORD s Wrath lasts about one year from the time it begins until it ends. I have stated what I believe: God s Wrath begins at the end of the Marriage Ceremony of Yeshua and His Wife, and ends the following year when Yeshua and His Wife & Armies return to earth with Him. 83

84 We know the Great Mystery of God is finished at the sounding of the seventh trumpet by the seventh angel, in Revelation 11:15 And verse 18 says, The nations were angry and Your Wrath has come! Here we clearly see that the Day of the LORD begins after the sounding of the seventh trumpet. The Day of the LORD is also called the Hour of Trial, which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth. Revelation 3:10 (see the full scripture on page 69) Dome of the Rock, Jerusalem Temple Mount Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the Temple of God, showing himself that he is God. For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who restrains (Holy Spirit) will now do so until He is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the Truth, that they might be saved. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion that they should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the Truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. 2 nd Thessalonians 2:3-4,

85 King of kings Painting done by my friend Ron DiCianni And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse. And He who sat on him is called Faithful and True Revelation 19:11 85

86 As King Yeshua returns to earth with His Beloved Bride, His Wife, He will sound the Great Jubilee Shofar. His whole Body will be instantly gathered to Him from all ends of Heaven to all ends of earth, on this most Holy of all Feasts of the LORD, on Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, which is also God s Final Day of Judgment! The days from Zichron or Yom Teruah to Yom Kippur (from the Day of Judgment to the Final Day of Judgment) are known as the 10 days of Awe! Scriptures of Yeshua sounding His Great Shofar: Matthew 24:30, 31; Mark 13:26, 27; Isaiah 18:3; 27:13; Zechariah 9:14-16; 1 st Corinthians 15:51, 52; 1 st Thessalonians 4:16,17; Ephesian 1:10; Leviticus 25:8-11, 12, on this final Year of Jubilee! 86

87 The Mystery Feast of Yom Kippur is when our King and Great High Priest Yeshua returns with His Wife to earth at the end of their one year Honeymoon Traditionally the feast day of Yom Kippur was when the Aaronic high priest would go into the Holy of Holies in the Jerusalem Temple with the blood from a bull, to sprinkle on the Mercy Seat, done for the Atonement of his own sins and the sins of the other Aaronic priests; but also he would offer two goats for the sins of the people of Israel. If this was not done correctly, he could die. Before Yeshua first began His earthly ministry, just prior to the fall feasts, His cousin Yochanan cried out the following words, Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the World! John 1:29 Yochanan, the true mystery Zadok high priest of Aaron, made this statement, prophesying that his cousin Yeshua, the King and Great High Priest of Heaven, had not only come to earth as the Bridegroom for His Bride, but also as the Savior of the world. All previous feast days of Yom Kippur have been moeds or rehearsals for a future Day of the real Yom Kippur. On that Day of Yom Kippur, that Day of Atonement, God will bring Atonement to all who are still alive on earth, & who have confessed their sins to Yeshua and have repented, and have accepted Yeshua s Blood Sacrifice for sin, His dying in their place for all their sins. For they have been forgiven. But on that Day, He will also bring the fire of His Wrath against all those still alive on earth who have rebelled against Him and the Word of God, and refused His Blood Sacrifice! The Wrath of God will begin to be released after the seventh trumpet is sounded at the conclusion of the Marriage Ceremony in Heaven (Revelation 11:18). And God s Wrath will continue to be poured down on the earth from that time, and during the time of the Honeymoon of Yeshua and His Wife in Heaven. His Wrath will have ended after Yeshua has returned to earth on Yom Kippur. 87

88 Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, is the most sacred and Holy of all of God s Feasts of the LORD of Leviticus 23, because this solemn Feast Day really has two opposite aspects. It is the Day of Atonement, but only for those who have repented, returned to God by accepting Yeshua as their Lord and Savior, and His Blood Atonement sacrifice for their sins. But this Day is also the Final Day of Judgement for all who have refused Yeshua s Blood Atonement that God provided, & have both rejected and hated Yeshua and His Father. It is also the Day in which Yeshua will detroy all evil people on His planet earth who are joined with the devil to try to take control over mankind, murdering millions, and also destroying God s creation, the earth. Key Scriptures regarding that Day of Yom Kippur Psalm 50:5 Gather My saints together to Me, those who have made a Covenant with Me by sacrifice Joel 2:10, 11 The earth quakes before them, the heavens tremble; the sun and moon grow dark, and the stars diminish their brightness. The LORD gives Voice before His Army, for His camp is very Great. For Strong is the One who executes His Word. For the Day of the LORD is Great and very Terrible. Who can endure it? In Wrath remember Mercy. God came from Teman, the Holy One from Mount Paran. His Glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full of His Praise. His Brightness was like the Light; He had Rays flashing from His hand, and there His Power was hidden. Before Him went pestilence, and fever followed at His feet. He stood and measured the earth; He looked and startled the nations. And the everlasting mountains were scattered, the perpetual hills bowed. His ways are Everlasting! I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction; the curtains of the land of Midian trembled. O LORD, were You displeased with the rivers, was Your Anger against the rivers, was Your Wrath against the sea, that You rode on Your horses, Your chariots of Salvation? You marched through the land in Indignation; You trampled the nations in Anger. You went forth for the Salvation of Your people, for Salvation with Your anointed. He will invade them with His troops. Habakkuk 3:2-8, 12, 13, 16 88

89 John 12:48-50 He who rejects Me (Yeshua), and does not receive My Words, has that which Judges him, the Word which I have spoken will Judge him at the last Day. For I have not spoken on My own authority; but My Father who sent Me gave Me a Command, what I should say and what I should speak. And I know that His Command is Everlasting Life. Therefore, whatever I speak, just as the Father has told Me, so I speak. THE DAY OF THE LORD: THE GREAT SHOFAR CALL OF GOD Immediatelly after the (Great) Tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Then the Sign of the Son of Man will appear in Heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the Clouds of Heaven with Power and Great Glory! And He will send His angels with a Great Sound of a Trumpet (the Great Shofar), and they will gather together His elect, from the four winds, from one end of Heaven to the other. Matthew 24:29-31 What is this Sign of the Son of Man, seen in the black heavens? But Yeshua kept silent. And the high priest answered and said to him, I put You under oath by the Living God, tell us if You are the Messiah, the Son of God! Yeshua said to him, It is as you said. Nevertheless, I say to you, hereafter you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power and coming on the Clouds of Heaven! Matthew 26:63, 64 [ This Sign appears after weeks or months of the heavens in total darkness.] Behold, the LORD God will come with a Strong Hand, and His Arm shall Rule for Him. Behold, His Reward is with Him, and His Work before Him. He will feed His flock like a Shepherd; He will gather the lambs with His Arm, and carry them in His bosom, and gently lead those who are with young. Isaiah 40:10, 11 Behold, He is coming with Clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so. Amen. Revelation 1:7 89

90 Matthew 22:7 In this parable, Yeshua is secretly announcing that those Armies of God that He will send forth before the Wedding Banquet held on earth would be His Wife returning with Him from their Honeymoon in Heaven, when He destroys all those murderers and burns up their cities throughout the earth. Revelation 19:11-16 Yeshua returning with all His Armies from Heaven Now I saw Heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in Righteousness He Judges and makes War. His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns. He had a name written that no one knew except Himself. He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God! And the Armies in Heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses. Now out of His mouth goes a sharp Sword, that with it He should Strike the nations. And He Himself will Rule them with a Rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and Wrath of Almighty God. And He has on His robe and on His thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS! O My love, You are as beautiful lovely as Jerusalem, awesome as an Army with banners! Who is She awesome as an Army with banners? Song of Solomon 6:4, 10 (Yeshua s mystery Bride) Isaiah 11:4 He shall Strike the earth with the rod of His mouth, and with the breath of His lips He shall slay the wicked. And I say to you, My friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. But I will show you whom you should fear. Fear Him who, after He has killed, has Power to cast (you) into hell; yes, I say to you, fear Him! Luke 12:4, 5 90

91 And I saw the beast, the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against Him who sat on the horse and against His Army. Then the beast was captured, along with him the false prophet who worked signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image. These two were cast alive into the lake of fire burning with brimstone. And the rest were killed with the Sword which proceeded from the mouth of Him who sat on the horse. Revelation 19:19-21 The Hand of the LORD shall be known to His servants, and His indignation to His enemies. For behold, the LORD will come with fire, and with His chariots, like a whirlwind, to render His Anger with Fury, and His rebuke with flames of fire. For by fire and by His Sword the LORD will Judge all flesh; and the slain of the LORD shall be many. Isaiah 66:14,15,16 And this shall be the plague with which the LORD will strike all the people who fought against Jerusalem: their flesh shall dissolve while they stand on their feet, their eyes shall dissolve in their sockets, and their tongues shall dissolve in their mouths. Zechariah 14:12 Joel 2:20 But I will remove far from you the Northern Army, and will drive him away into a barren and desolate land, with his face toward the eastern sea and his back toward the western sea. His stench will come up, and his foul odor will rise, because he has done monstrous things. Daniel 11:45 He shall plant the tents of his palace between the seas and the glorious Holy Mountain; yet he shall come to his end, & no one will help him. For the Day of the LORD upon all nations is near; as you have done, it shall be done to you For as you drank on My Holy Mountain, so shall all the nations drink continually; Yes, they shall drink, and swallow, and they shall be as though they had never been. But on Mount Zion there shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness; the House of Jacob shall possess their possessions. The House of Jacob shall be a fire, and the House of Joseph a flame. Saviors shall come to Mount Zion to judge the mountains of Esau, & the Kingdom shall be the LORD s! Obadiah 1:15,16,17,18,21 But bring here those enemies of Mine, who did not want Me to reign over them, and slay them before Me! Luke 19:27 91

92 Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of drunkenness to all the surrounding peoples, when they lay siege against Judah and Jerusalem. And it shall happen in that Day that I will make Jerusalem a very heavy stone for all peoples; all who would heave it away will surely be cut to pieces, though all nations of the earth are gathered against it. In that Day, says the LORD, I will strike every horse with confusion, and its rider with madness. I will open My eyes on the House of Judah, and will strike every horse of the peoples with blindness. And the Governors of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem are my strength in the LORD of hosts, their God. In that Day I will make the Governors of Judah like a firepan in the woodpile, and like a fiery torch in the sheaves. They shall devour all the surrounding peoples on the right hand and on the left, but Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her place, Jerusalem. The LORD will save the tents of Judah first, so that the glory of the House of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem shall not be greater than that of Judah. In that Day the LORD will defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; the one who is feeble among them in that Day shall be like David, and the House of David shall be like God, like the Angel of the LORD before them. [Perhaps some of those are Jews who were saved after they heard the two witnesses, and then watched them ascend to heaven.] It shall be in that Day that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem. And I will pour on the House of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the Spirit of Grace and Supplication. Then they will look on Me whom they have pierced. Yes, they will mourn for Him as one mourns for his only son, and grieve for Him as one grieves for a firstborn. In that Day there shall be a Great Mourning in Jerusalem, like the mourning at Haddad Rimmon in the plain of Megiddo. And the land shall mourn, every family by itself Zechariah 12:

93 Isaiah 61:2 to proclaim the Acceptable Year of the LORD (the year of Jubilee) and the Day of Vengeance of our God. (Both of these are the two sides of Yom Kippur, which happens on that Day.) Leviticus 25:9, 10 Isaiah 63:1-6 Who is this (One) who comes from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah, this One who is Glorious in His apparel, traveling in the Greatness of His Strength? I who speak in Righteousness, Mighty to save! Why is Your apparel red, and Your garments like one who treads the winepress? I have trodden the winepress alone, and from the peoples no one was with Me. For I have trodden them in My Anger, and trampled them in My Fury. Their blood is sprinkled upon My garments, and I have stained all My robes. For the Day of Vengeance is in My Heart, and the year of My redeemed has come. (in Isaiah 34:8 & Jer 48:44) I looked, but there was no one to help, and I wondered that there was no one to uphold. Therefore My own Arm brought Salvation for Me, and My own Fury, it sustained Me. I have trodden down the peoples in My Anger, made them drunk in My Fury, and brought down their strength to the earth. Joel 2:30-32 And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth; blood and fire and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the Great and Awesome Day of the LORD. And it shall come to pass that whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved. For in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there shall be deliverance, as the LORD has said, among the remnant the LORD calls. 93

94 Revelation 6:15-17 And the kings of the earth, the great men, the rich men, the commanders, the mighty men, every slave and every free man, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains, and said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the Throne and from the Wrath of the Lamb! For the Great Day of His Wrath has come, and who is able to stand? Isaiah 2:10-12 Enter into the rock, and hide in the dust, from the terror of the LORD and the Glory of His Majesty. The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down. And the LORD alone shall be exalted in that Day. For the Day of the LORD of hosts shall come upon everything proud and lofty, upon everything lifted up. And it shall be brought low. Amos 9:3, 4 And though they hide themselves on top of Carmel, from there I will search and take them. Though they hide from My sight at the bottom of the sea, from there I will command the serpent, and it shall bite them; though they go into captivity before their enemies, from there I will command the sword, and it shall slay them. I will set My eyes on them for harm and not for good. Revelation 14:14-20 Then I looked, and behold, a white cloud, and on the cloud sat One like the Son of Man, having on His head a golden crown, and in His hand a sharp sickle. And another angel came out of the Temple, crying with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud, Thrust in Your sickle and reap, for the time has come for You to reap, for the harvest of the earth is ripe. So He who sat on the cloud thrust in His sickle on the earth, and the earth was reaped! Then another angel came out of the Temple which is in Heaven, he also having a sharp sickle. And another angel came out from the altar, who had power over fire, and he cried with a loud cry to him who had the sharp sickle, saying, Thrust in your sharp sickle and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth, for her grapes are fully ripe. So the angel thrust his sickle into the earth and gathered the vine of the earth, and threw it into the Great winepress of the Wrath of God. And the winepress was trampled outside the City, and blood came out of the winepress, up to the horses bridles, for one thousand six hundred furlongs. Heaven and earth will pass away, but My Words will by no means pass away! Matthew 24:35 94

95 Jeremiah 2:3 Israel was holiness to the LORD, the firstfruits of His increase. All that devour him will offend; disaster will come upon them, says the LORD. Isaiah 34:1-10 Come near, you nations, to hear, and heed, you people! Let the earth hear, and all that is in it, the world and all things that come forth from it. For the indignation of the LORD is against all nations, and His fury against all their armies. He has utterly destroyed them, He has given them over to the slaughter. Also their slain shall be thrown out; their stench shall rise from their corpses; and the mountains shall be melted with their blood. All the host of heaven shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled up like a scroll. All their host shall fall down as the leaf falls from the vine, and as fruit falling from a fig tree. For My Sword shall be bathed in Heaven; indeed it shall come down on Edom, and on the people of My curse, for Judgment. The Sword of the LORD is filled with blood, it is made overflowing with fatness For the LORD has a sacrifice in Bozrah, and a great slaughter in the land of Edom. their land shall be soaked with blood, and their dust saturated with fatness. For it is the Day of the LORD s Vengeance, the Year of recompense for the cause of Zion! Its streams shall be turned into pitch, and its dust into brimstone; Its land shall become burning pitch. It shall not be quenched night or day; its smoke shall ascend forever. Generation to generation it shall lie waste; no one shall pass through it forever and ever. Joel 3:1, 2 For behold, in those days and at that time, when I bring back the captives of Judah and Jerusalem, I will also gather all nations, and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. And I will enter into Judgment with them there on account of My people, My heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations; they have also divided up My land! 95

96 Behold, the Day of the LORD is coming, and your spoil will be divided in your midst. For I will gather all the nations to battle against Jerusalem. The city shall be taken, the houses rifled, and the women ravished. Half of the city shall go into captivity, but the remnant of the people shall not be cut off from the city. Then the LORD will go forth and fight against those nations, as He fights in the Day of Battle! And in that Day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, which faces Jerusalem on the east. And the Mount of Olives shall be split in two, from east to west, making a very large valley; half of the mountain shall move toward the north and half of it toward the south. Then you shall flee through My mountain valley, for the mountain valley shall reach to Azal. Yes, you shall flee as you fled from the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Thus the LORD my God will come, and all the saints with You. Zechariah 14:1-5 96

97 The Mystery of the Great Shofar of God! The Mystery of Lord Yeshua s return with His Wife (Bride) can most clearly be seen by studying the 10 places in the Old and New Covenants where we see Yeshua Himself sounding the Great Shofar call into His Creation. These Shofar calls reveal that this great event happens exactly on the most solemn Feast Day of all the feasts of the LORD, on Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement! Let s look at these 10 places in the Scriptures 1) And the LORD said to Moses, Prepare the people, for on the third day the LORD shall come down, and when you hear the sound of the trumpet (the Hebrew word is jubal, [like Jubilee]) they shall come up to the base of the Mount (Sinai). And on the morning of the third day the trumpet (Shofar) sounded from heaven and got louder and louder, and more than two million people freaked-out, trembling in the camp. (Exodus 19:13, 16; & 20:18) The sounding of this Shofar has been called the First Trump! Was this first Shofar which God sounded from heaven related to God s 1 st Jubilee? 2) Behold, I tell you a mystery: we shall not all sleep, but we shall be changed in the twinkling of an eye, at the Last Trumpet! For the Trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. (1 st Corinthians 15:51, 52) 3) And the LORD shall be seen over them, and His arrow shall go forth as the lightning, and the Lord GOD (Yeshua) shall blow the Shofar, and go with whirlwinds from the south... (Zechariah 9:14) * Notice that it says clearly that God Himself is blowing this Shofar! Here we see Lord Yeshua not only blowing this Shofar, but God is also telling us on which Feast of the seven Feasts of the LORD this will happen. Until we look at more scriptures, let s call this the Feast of Battle! 4) And the Lord shall descend from Heaven with a Shout, with the Voice of an archangel ([malakh] or the Angel or Messenger of the LORD), and with the Trumpet of God, and the dead shall rise first in Messiah. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. (1 st Thessalonians 4:16,17) Yeshua is the Angel or Messenger of the LORD! 97

98 5a) Immediately after the Tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Then the Sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the Clouds of Heaven with Power and great Glory. And He will send His angels with a Great sound of a Trumpet, [Shofar Gadol, the Great Shofar] &they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. (Matthew 24:27-31) 5b) But in those days, after that Tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon willl not give its light; the stars of heaven will fall, and the powers in heaven will be shaken. Then they will see the Son of Man coming in the Clouds with great Power and Glory. And then He will send His angels, and gather together His elect from the four winds, from the farthest part of earth to the farthest part of heaven. (Mark 13:24-27) (He might gather together in One all things in Messiah, both in heaven and on earth. Ephesiahs 1:10) 5c) He shall call to the heavens from above, and to the earth, that He may Judge His people. Gather My saints together to Me, (perhaps at His return) those who have made a Covenant with Me by sacrifice. Psalm 50:4, 5 6) And it shall come to pass in that Day, that the LORD shall beat off [His fruit] from the flood of the River to the Brook of Egypt, and you shall be gathered one by one, O you children of Israel. And it shall come to pass in that Day, that a Great Shofar [the Shofar Gadol] shall be blown! And they shall come who were about to perish in the land of Assyria, and the outcasts in the land of Egypt; and they shall worship the LORD in the Holy Mountain (Mount Zion) at Jerusalem. Isaiah 27:12, 13 7) And you shall number seven sabbaths of years to you, seven times seven years; and there shall be to you the days of seven sabbaths of years, even forty and nine years. Then you shall make proclamation with the blast of the shofar on the tenth day of the seventh month; in the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) shall you make proclamation with the shofar throughout all your land. And you shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout the land to all the inhabitants; it shall be a Jubilee to you; and you shall return every man his possession, and you shall return every man his family. A Jubilee that fiftieth year shall be to you;... it shall be holy to you; Leviticus 25:8-11, 12 It is the Year of Jubilee! Yeshua began His Galilean ministry reading Isaiah 61:1, 2 in a synagogue in Nazareth, talking about liberty to the captives, and the acceptable Year of the LORD. [Year of Jubilee = God s Day of Vengeance] Luke 4:18, 19 98

99 On that special Feast Day of Yom Kippur, in God s true Year of Jubilee that is coming soon, our Lord Yeshua will sound the Great Jubilee Shofar, as He returns to earth in battle, with all His Armies (His Wife) from Heaven! 8) All inhabitants of the world and dwellers on the earth, when He lifts up a banner on the mountains, you see it; and when He blows a Shofar (the Great Trumpet), you hear it! (Isaiah 18:3) 9) Exodus 19:19 says, And when the blast of the Shofar sounded long and became louder and louder, Moses spoke, and God answered him by Voice. Exodus 20:18, 19, 22 says, and when the people saw it, they trembled and stood afar off. Then they said to Moses, You speak with us, and we will hear! But let not God speak with us, lest we die! Then the LORD said to Moses, Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, You have seen that I have talked to you from heaven. Hebrews 12:19 says: the sound of a Trumpet and the Voice of Words, so that those who heard it begged that the Word should not be spoken to them anymore. God spoke and gave them the Ten Commandments. As I study the above scriptures, I have a question, could it be that God spoke to His people at Mount Sinai through His loud Voice as a Shofar sound? 10a) I (John) was in the Spirit on the Lord s day, and heard behind me a Great Voice as of a Trumpet, saying, I Am the Aleph and the Tav, the First and the Last. (Revelation 1:10, 11) 10b) After this I (John) looked, and, behold, a door was opened in Heaven. And the first Voice which I heard was as it were of a Trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up here... (Revelation 4:1) And now I will give you what I believe is the answer to this puzzle of the Mystery of the Shofar of God. God Yeshua, who speaks in His Word about the First Trump, the Last Trumpet, and also the Great Trumpet, only sounds His Shofar two times into His Creation. He first sounded this Shofar over two million Israelis and a mixed multitude camped at the base of Mount Sinai. (Exodus 12:38) He will again sound His Shofar only once more when He returns with His Wife (His Armies) from Heaven, coming in battle, sounding the Great Shofar, which will cause the rest of His Body to Unite together unto Him at His coming, both those in Heaven and also those on earth, as He saves those on earth who are about to perish, and at the same time He also destroys all His enemies at His appearing. 99

100 And all this will happen on God s Feast of Yom Kippur, as Yeshua fulfills every jot and tittle of the Word of God related to His return, as He returns to earth. Here are the biblical proofs for Yom Kippur a) As Yeshua returns on that Day of Battle, He sounds the Great Shofar. (Zechariah 9:14) Yom Kippur is also God s Day of Final Judgment! b) As the Aaronic High Priest could only enter (& leave) the Holy of Holies on Yom Kippur, so the Great High Priest Yeshua leaves His dwelling place in the Holy of Holies in Heaven on that same day of Yom Kippur, entering the earth s atmosphere. (Leviticus 16; 23:27, 28) c) Soon He will sound that Great Shofar on a special Year of Jubilee, and also it will be on one biblical day of the year, Yom Kippur, when God said the shofar is to be sounded in the Year of Jubilee, on the tenth day of Tishri, the Day of Atonement! (Leviticus 25:8) It will be a Jubilee for the saved! d) Yeshua comes in battle on that Day of Battle, first saving those who are ready to perish! (Isaiah 27:13) On Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, He will save those who have called on Him, and have repented for their sins. [ whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved! Joel 2:32] Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, is really a two sided event. On one side is the Atonement or forgiveness of God for those who have called on the Messiah Yeshua, thanking Him for dying on the Cross and shedding His Blood for their sins, confessing and repenting for all their sins. They are saved by God. For all others it will be the Final Judgment; for those who have not repented for their sins, rebelling against and hating Almighty God! There are 10 days from Zichron Teruah or Trumpets, today known as Rosh Ha Shanah, [the Day of Judgment] until the Day of Atonement, Yom Kippur. Yom Kippur is the Day of Atonement, but only for those who have repented and have been saved by accepting Yeshua as their Lord. This Day is also called the Final Day of Judgment, the Day of the LORD, the Day of Battle, when Yeshua returns and destroys His enemies who have refused to submit to God and to the Salvation from the Lamb. It is the Day we have waited for, when Lord Yeshua returns with all of Heaven s armies. e) As He comes with His Armies (His Wife) He sounds the Great Shofar. (Isaiah 27:13; Zechariah 9:14; Matthew 22:7; Revelation 19:11-14; etc ) 100

101 Most Old Covenant prophets wrote about the Lord s return, this Day of the LORD, when God comes back to earth in battle. Also, in the Song of Solomon 6: 4, 9, 10, God s Bride is referred to as an Army with banners. And at the sounding of the Great Shofar, all of Yeshua s Body will be instantly gathered together unto Him and His Wife from all of Heaven to all the ends of earth, just before Yeshua pours out the Fire of His Wrath on His enemies gathered together below on earth, waiting to fight Him. If Yeshua only sounds the Shofar twice into His Creation, this means that the Last Trump is also the Great Trump, and that the Great Trump is the last time that Yeshua sounds His Shofar into Creation, just as He is returning to earth to begin His Millennial Kingdom Reign. As at Mount Sinai, this Shofar will also be sounded on the Third Day! Come, and let us return to the LORD; for He has torn, but He will heal us; He has stricken, but He will bind us up. After Two Days He will revive us; and on the Third Day He will raise us up, that we may live in His sight. Hosea 6:1, 2 (Exodus 19:11 on the third day the LORD will come down.) I have shown the answer. But any answer without God s biblical proofs is not a complete answer. It could even be considered by many as a guess. God has placed at least three proofs in His Word that verify this answer. The first proof is found in Numbers 10:1-3, where God s gives instructions to His Aaronic priests on the use of the silver trumpets, or hat-zotzrot. God first teaches His Aaronic priests in the use of two silver trumpets: Two trumpets sounded together, with two priests each sounding a trumpet, would cause this camp of over two million people to unite together in the Presence of the LORD. This first teaching given by God to His priests was a key to the mystery of the Lord s return, and also a major mystery key for Uniting together today s the World-wide Body of believers in Yeshua. Two silver trumpets sounded together was God s instruction for uniting together the whole Israelite camp. Shouldn t we also be applying this same Word today in our cities and nations for Uniting together Yeshua s Body? Yeshua is in Heaven; He is not bound by time! He sees the Beginning from the End for all of His plans for His Creation. And so the two times that God sounds His Shofar, first over the Israelite camp at Mount Sinai, and second when He returns with His Wife, are God s two Trumpet calls! 101

102 These are the two different times that Lord Yeshua sounds His Shofar into Creation, which will cause His whole Body to be instantly gathered together into His Presence! I believe that if today, we as Yeshua s Melchi Zedek priests on earth sound two silver trumpets, as first instructed by God, that this will greatly help to bring unity into Yeshua s Body. Soon Yeshua Himself will sound this Great Shofar, when He returns from Heaven with His Wife; then all the rest of His Body will be instantly gathered together into His Presence. Now for our most important proof and amazing revelation from God: To see it we need to go back to the book of Genesis, and back to Abraham, and to our father Abraham s obedience to God when he was asked by God to offer up his son Isaac, his only son of Promise. And because Abraham obeyed God s Voice at Mount Moriah, God spared Abraham s son Isaac. Notice that a ram was caught in the thicket by both of its two horns and offered up for Isaac. These two ram horns would represent the two times that God would send His Voice into Creation like a Shofar (ram s horn) call, fulfilling God s Eternal Plans for His Bride, called to Himself from Israel and the nations. Genesis 22:13 God also showed us this answer in the book of Revelation 1:10, 11 and in Revelation 4:1-3, where Yeshua used His Voice like a Trumpet or Shofar two times to call Yochanan (John) up to Himself in Heaven. Revelation 1:10,11 I was in the Spirit on the Lord s Day, and I heard behind me a loud Voice, as of a Trumpet, saying, I Am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last. Revelation 4:1-3 After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven. And the first Voice which I heard was like a Trumpet speaking with me, saying, Come up here, and I will show you things which must take place after this. Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a Throne set in Heaven, and One sat on the Throne. And He who sat there was like a jasper and a sardius stone in appearance; and there was a Rainbow around the Throne, in appearance like an emerald. 102

103 Yeshua will be returning to earth on Yom Kippur, in God s true Year of Jubilee! 40 days after Yeshua was baptized by Yochanan, He returned again to the Jordan River to see Yochanan, afterwards He went up to the Nazareth synagogue in Galilee where He read Isaiah 61:1, 2, then publically declared that this Scripture had now been fulfilled by Himself in their hearing. What was He really saying? I believe that He was declaring that God s Year of Jubilee had just begun. And I also believe this was done on Yom Kippur. Leviticus 25:10 Yeshua then went up the Galilee and recruited Peter, Andrew s brother, and then Philip, and next Nathaniel. He next was invited to a wedding in Cana of Galilee with these diciples, where Yeshua performed His first miracle of turning water into wine. John recorded that day, On the third day (John 2:1-9) I believe that that wedding party was held during Succoth, and that those events were prophetic for what is coming in the future. Yeshua s last miracle was on the Lord s Passover when He shared that the cup of wine they drank represented His Blood to be shed for the New and Everlasting Covenant & for Eternal Life with God. Yeshua will return on Yom Kippur on the real Year of Jubilee, which will be the Day of Atonement, but only for those who have repented of their sins and accepted Yeshua as their sin offering and their Atonement. However that Day of Yom Kippur will also be the Day of Final Judgment for those unrepented. This is different from the Great White Throne Judgment of Revelation 20: Then Yeshua & His Wife will hold the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, celebrated in Jerusalem with their Guests. That Celebration will be on Succoth, or the Feast of Tabernacles! (Isaiah 26:6-10) 103

104 The Roar of the LION! Revelation 10:1-7 I saw still another Mighty Messenger (Yeshua) coming down from Heaven, clothed with a cloud, and a Rainbow was on His head. His face was like the Sun, and His feet like pillars of fire. He had a little book open in His hand. And He set His right foot on the sea and His left foot on the land, and Cried with a loud Voice, as when a Lion Roars. When He cried out, seven thunders uttered their voices. Now when the seven thunders uttered their voices, I was about to write; but I heard a voice from Heaven saying to me, Seal up the things which the seven thunders uttered, and do not write them. The Mighty Messenger whom I saw standing on the sea and on the land raised up His hand to Heaven and swore by Him who lives forever and ever, who created heaven and the things that are in it, the earth and the things that are in it, and the sea and the things that are in it, (this Messenger is also seen in Deuteronomy 32:40 and in Daniel 12:7) that there should be delay no longer, but in the days of the sounding of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound the Mystery of God would be finished, as He declared to His servants the prophets. (Yeshua s Bride is taken up into Heaven on Shavuot, about three months before the sounding of the 7 th trumpet by the seventh angel. Revelation 11:15 This will be the fulfillment of the Feast of Shavuot, or of the First Fruits of the spring wheat harvest, in preparation for Yeshua s Wedding in Heaven a few months later on Zichron Teruah (Yom Teruah), or Trumpets! Revelation 11:15-19 Then the seventh angel sounded. And there were loud voices in Heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world have become the Kingdoms of our LORD and of His Messiah, and He shall Reign forever and ever! And the twenty-four elders who sat before God on their thrones fell on their faces and worshiped God, saying, We give You thanks, O Lord God Almighty, the One who is, and who was, and who is to come, because You have taken Your great Power and Reigned. The nations were angry, and Your Wrath has come, and the time of the dead, that they should be Judged. And that You should Reward Your servants the prophets and the saints, and those who fear Your name, small and great. And You should destroy those who destroy the earth. Then the Temple of God was opened in Heaven, and the Ark of His Covenant was seen in His Temple. And there were lightnings, noises, thunderings, an earthquake, & great hail. 104

105 Hosea 11:10 They shall walk after the LORD. He will Roar like a Lion! When He Roars, then His sons shall come trembling from the west (U.S.A., Europe, etc ) Hosea 11:11 They shall come trembling like a bird from Egypt, like a dove from the land of Assyria. And I will let them dwell in their houses, says the LORD. (also see Isaiah 27:13) Ezekiel 38:18, 19, 22; 39:6 when Gog comes against the land of Israel, says the Lord GOD, My Fury will show in My face. For in My Jealousy and in the fire of My Wrath I have spoken, Surely in that day there shall be a great earthquake in the land of Israel And I will bring him to Judgment with pestilence and bloodshed; I will rain down on him, on his troops, and on the many peoples who are with him, flooding rain, great hailstones, fire, and brimstone. And I will send fire on Magog and on those who live in security in the coastlands. Then they shall know that I am the LORD. Amos 1:2 And he said, The LORD Roars from Zion, and utters His Voice from Jerusalem. The pastures of the shepherds mourn, and the top of Carmel withers. Isaiah 31:4, 5 For thus the LORD has spoken to me, As a Lion Roars, and a young lion over his prey (when a multitude of shepherds is summoned against Him, He will not be afraid of their voice nor disturbed by their noise). So the LORD of hosts will come down to fight for Mount Zion &for its Hill. Like birds flying about, so the LORD of hosts will defend Jerusalem. Defending, He will also deliver it; passing over, He will preserve it. Joel 3:12-17 Let the nations be wakened, and come up to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. For there I will sit to Judge all the surrounding nations. Put in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe. Come, go down; for the winepress is full, the vats overflow for their wickedness is great. Multitudes, multitudes in the Valley of decision! For the Day of the LORD is near in the Valley of decision. The sun and moon will grow dark, and the stars will diminish their brightness. The LORD also will Roar from Zion, and utter His Voice from Jerusalem. The heavens and earth will shake; but the LORD will be a Shelter for His people, and the strength of the children of Israel. So you shall know that I am the LORD your God, dwelling in Zion, My Holy Mountain. Then Jerusalem shall be Holy, and no aliens shall ever pass through her again. (see also Revelation 14:17-20) Proverbs 19:12 The king s wrath is like the roaring of a lion & Pro 20:2 105

106 Jeremiah 25:30-34, 37, 38 Therefore prophesy against them all these words, and say to them, The LORD will Roar from on high, and utter His Voice from His holy habitation; He will Roar Mightily against His fold. He will give a Shout, as those who tread the grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth. A Noise will come to the ends of the earth, for the LORD has a controversy with the nations. He will plead His case with all flesh. He will give those who are wicked to the sword, says the LORD. Thus says the LORD of hosts, Behold, disaster shall go forth from nation to nation, & a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the farthest parts of the earth. And at that Day the slain of the LORD shall be from one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth. They shall not be lamented, or gathered, or buried; they shall become refuse on the ground. Wail, shepherds, and cry! Roll about in the ashes, you leaders of the flock! For the days of your slaughter and your dispersions are fulfilled; you shall fall like a precious vessel. For the LORD has plundered their pasture, and the peaceful dwellings are cut down because of the fierce Anger of the LORD. He has left His lair like the lion; for their land is desolate because of the fierceness of the Oppressor, and because of His fierce Anger! (Zechariah 9:14-16) Habakkuk 3:2 In Wrath, remember Mercy! Revelation 5:5 But one of the elders said to me, Do not weep. Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has prevailed to open the scroll and to loose its seven seals. 106

107 The Shout of the LORD! Numbers 23:21 He has not observed iniquity in Jacob, nor has He seen wickedness in Israel. The LORD his God is with him, and the Shout of a King is among them. Psalm 47:5 God has gone up with a Shout, the LORD with the sound of a Trumpet. Isaiah 42:13-15 The LORD shall go forth like a Mighty Man; He shall stir up His zeal like a Man of War. He shall Cry out, yes, Shout aloud; He shall prevail against His enemies. I have held My peace a long time, I have been still and restrained Myself. Now I will cry like a woman in labor, I will pant and gasp at once. I will lay waste the mountains and hills, and dry up all their vegetation; I will make the rivers coastlands, and I will dry up the pools. 1 st Thessalonians 4:16-17 For the Lord Himself will descend from Heaven with a Shout, with the Voice of the Angel (Messenger) of the LORD, and with the Trumpet of God. And the dead in Messiah will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. Joshua 6:4-5 And seven priests shall bear seven trumpets of rams horns before the ark. But the seventh day you shall march around the city seven times, and the priests shall blow the trumpets. It shall come to pass, when they make a blast with the ram s horn, and when you hear the sound of the shofar, that all the people shall shout with a great shout; then the wall of the city will fall down flat. And the people shall go up every man straight before him. 1 st Samuel 4:5-7 And when the Ark of the Covenant of the LORD came into the camp, all Israel shouted so loudly that the earth shook. Now when the Philistines heard the noise of the shout, they said, What does the sound of this great shout in the camp of the Hebrews mean? Then they understood that the Ark of the LORD had come into the camp. So the Philistines were afraid, for they said, God has come into the camp! 107

108 The Voice of the LORD! Exodus 15:26 If you diligently heed the Voice of the LORD your God and do what is right in His sight, give ear to His Commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you which I have brought on the Egyptians. For I am the LORD who heals you. Deuteronomy 13:18 because you have listened to the Voice of the LORD your God, to keep all His Commandments which I command you today, to do what is right in the eyes of the LORD your God. Deuteronomy 18:16 according to all you desired of the LORD your God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the Voice of the LORD my God, nor let me see this great fire anymore, lest I die. Deuteronomy 28:1-2 Now it shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the Voice of the LORD your God, to observe carefully all His Commandments which I command you today, that the LORD your God will set you high above all nations of the earth. And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, because you obey the Voice of the LORD your God Deuteronomy 28:15 But it shall come to pass, if you do not obey the Voice of the LORD your God, to observe carefully all His Commandments and His statutes which I command you today, that all these curses will come upon you and overtake you Deuteronomy 30:10, 14 if you obey the Voice of the LORD your God, to keep His Commandments and His statutes which are written in this Book of the Law, and if you turn to the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul. the Word is very near you that you may do it. 1 st Samuel 15:22 So Samuel said, Has the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the Voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed than the fat of rams. 108

109 Joshua 5:6 For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, until all the people who were men of war, who came out of Egypt, were consumed, because they did not obey the Voice of the LORD, to whom the LORD swore that He would not show them the land which the LORD had sworn to their fathers that He would give us, a land flowing with milk and honey. Psalm 29:3-5, 7-9 The Voice of the LORD is over the waters; the God of glory thunders; the LORD is over many waters. The Voice of the LORD is Powerful; the Voice of the LORD is full of Majesty. The Voice of the LORD breaks the cedars, yes, the LORD splinters the cedars of Lebanon. The Voice of the LORD divides the flames of fire. The Voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness; the LORD shakes the Wilderness of Kadesh. The Voice of the LORD makes the deer give birth, and strips the forests bare. And in His Temple everyone says, Glory! Isaiah 6:8 Also I heard the Voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us? Then I said, Here am I! Send me! Isaiah 30:30-33 The LORD will cause His Glorious Voice to be heard, and show the descent of His Arm, with the indignation of His Anger and the flame of a devouring fire, with scattering, tempest, and hailstones. For through the Voice of the LORD, Assyria will be beaten down, as He strikes with the rod. And in every place where the staff of punishment passes, which the LORD lays on him, it will be with tambourines and harps; & in battles of brandishing He will fight with it. For Tophet was established of old, yes, for the king it is prepared. He has made it deep and large; its pyre is fire with much wood; the breath of the LORD, like a stream of brimstone, kindles it. Daniel 9:10 We have not obeyed the Voice of the LORD our God, to walk in His laws, which He set before us by His servants the prophets. Haggai 1:12 Then Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Joshua the son of Jeho-zadok, the high priest, with all the remnant of the people, obeyed the Voice of the LORD their God, and the words of Haggai the prophet, as the LORD their God had sent him; and the people feared the presence of the LORD. 109

111 The Feast of Succoth, the Great Fall Harvest! The Marriage Supper of the Lamb in Jerusalem! This will be Earth s Greatest Feast of Rejoicing! Then he said to me, Write, Blessed are those (Guests) who are called to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb! Revelation 19:9 Most of Yeshua s parables were about these special Guests, friends of the Bridegroom and Bride, at this special Wedding Banquet, the Marriage Supper of the Lamb! Succoth is also Yeshua s Birthday! Nine months prior Love came into the world at Yeshua s Conception in the womb of Miriam on Kislev 24, late December. Haggai 2:18; John 10:36 Lord Yeshua will celebrate Succoth on His Birthday! Yeshua s Bride standing with Him on Mount Zion Then I looked, and behold, a Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having His Father s name written on their foreheads. And I heard a voice from Heaven, like the voice of many waters, and like the voice of loud thunder. And I heard the sound of harpists playing their harps. They sang as it were a new song before the Throne, before the four living creatures and the elders; and no one could learn that song except the hundred and forty four thousand who were redeemed from the earth. These are the ones who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins (Matthew 25:1). These are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever He goes. These are redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits to God and to the Lamb. Revelation 14:

112 Yeshua took bread Take, eat. This is My Body! Then He took the cup, and when He had given thanks He gave it to them, and they all drank from it. And He said to them, This is My Blood of the New Covenant, which is shed for many. Assuredly, I say to you, I will no longer drink of the fruit of the vine until that Day when I drink it new in the Kingdom of God. Mark 14:22-25 Then He said to them, With fervent desire I have desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. For I say to you, I will no longer eat of it until it is fulfilled in the Kingdom of God. Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this and divide it among yourselves; for I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the Kingdom of God comes. And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, This is My Body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me. Likewise He also took the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the New Covenant in My Blood, which is shed for you! Luke 22:

113 God also Rewards His Faithful Servants at His Return: those Blessed Guests at the Marriage Supper of the Lamb! Psalm 31:19 Oh, how Great is Your Goodness, which You have laid up for those who fear You Isaiah 40:10 Behold, the Lord GOD shall come with a strong hand, and His Arm shall rule for Him; Behold, His Reward is with Him, and His work before Him. Isaiah 62:11 Indeed the LORD has proclaimed to the end of the world: Say to the daughter of Zion, Surely your Salvation (Yeshua) is coming; Behold, His Reward is with Him, and His work before Him. Isaiah 65:13, 14 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD, Behold, My servants shall eat Behold, My servants shall drink Behold, My servants shall Rejoice Behold, My servants shall sing for Joy of heart!!! Matthew 16:27 For the Son of man will come in the Glory of His Father with His angels, and then He will Reward each according to his works. Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a Rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Revelation 2:23 And I will give to each of you according to your works. Revelation 11:18 And that You should Reward Your servants the prophets and the saints, and those who fear Your name, small and great Revelation 22:12 And behold, I am coming quickly, and My Reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work (as directed by the Holy Spirit). 113

114 And on this Mountain the LORD of hosts will make for all people a Feast of choice pieces, a Feast of wines on the lees, of fat things full of marrow, of well refined wines on the lees. And on this Mountain (Zion) He will destroy the surface of the covering cast over all people, and the veil that is spread over all nations. He will swallow up Death forever. And the LORD will wipe away tears from all faces; the rebuke of His people He will take away from all the earth; for the LORD has spoken. And it will be said in that Day, Behold, this is our God, we have waited for Him and He will Save us. This is our LORD; we have waited for Him; we will be glad and Rejoice in His Salvation. For on this Mountain the Hand of the LORD will Rest Isaiah 25: 6-10 The Marriage Supper of the Lamb will be held in Jerusalem! In which Scriptures does Yeshua talk about those Guests? Most of Yeshua s parables were about a Wedding Banquet; they were not about His Wedding. These parables that Yeshua taught were primarily about Guests at a special Wedding Banquet, with the best of foods being served. Study Yeshua s parables: Matthew 22:1-14; 24:13; Matthew 25:10: 5 out of 10 virgins were not Ready when He came! Luke 12: 35-37, but were ready when the Master returned from the Wedding; Luke 14:8-24; 19:13; 20:9-18; Revelation 19:9; & Isaiah 25:6-10 (Marriage Supper of the Lamb) 114

115 Luke 12:35-37 Let your waist be girded and your lamps burning; and you yourselves be like men who wait for their Master, when He will return from the Wedding, that when He comes and knocks they may open to Him immediately. Blessed are those servants whom the Master, when He comes, will find watching. Assuredly, I say to you that He will gird Himself and have them sit down and eat, and He will come and serve them. Matthew 22:1-14 And Yeshua answered & spoke to them again by parables and said, The Kingdom of Heaven is like a certain King who arranged a Marriage for His Son, and sent out His servants to call those who were invited to the Wedding (Supper); and they were not willing to come. Again, He sent out other servants, saying, Tell those who are invited, See, I have prepared My dinner; My oxen and fatted cattle are killed, and all things are ready. Come to the Wedding (Supper)! But they made light of it and went their ways, one to his own farm, another to his business. And the rest seized His servants, treated them spitefully, and killed them. But when the King heard about it, he was furious. And He sent out His armies, destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city. Then He said to His servants, The Wedding (Supper) is ready, but those who were invited were not worthy. Therefore go into the highways, and as many as you find, invite to the Wedding (Supper). So those servants went out into the highways and gathered together all whom they found, both bad and good. And the Wedding hall was filled with guests. But when the King came in to see the guests, He saw a man there who did not have on a wedding garment. So He said to him, Friend, how did you come in here without a wedding garment? And he was speechless. Then the King said to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. For many are called, but few are chosen! In Yeshua s parable of Matthew 22, the Father said He would not hold this Wedding Banquet for His Son until He would first send His Armies and destroy His enemies (verse 7). These Armies are His Bride, who are first taken up to Heaven by Him for the Wedding, and then She returns with Her Bridegroom as His Wife, but only after having Her Honeymoon in Heaven, which by earth s time will be one year, & away from the affairs of the world. (see Deuteronomy 24:5) 115

116 Luke 18:8 When the Son of man returns, will He find faith on the earth? Luke 19:13 Occupy (do business) till I come! Matthew 10:22 But he who endures to the end will be Saved! Luke 14:8-11, When you are invited by anyone to a wedding feast, do not sit down in the best place, lest one more honorable than you be invited by him; and he who invited you and him come and say to you, Give place to this man, and then you begin with shame to take the lowest place. But when you are invited, go and sit down in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes he may say to you, Friend, go up higher. Then you will have glory in the presence of those who sit at the table with you. For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted. Then He said to him, A certain Man gave a Great Supper and invited many, and sent His servant at supper time to say to those who were invited, Come, for all things are now ready. But they all with one accord began to make excuses. The first said to him, I have bought a piece of ground, and I must go and see it. I ask you to have me excused. And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to test them. I ask You to have me excused. Still another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come. So that servant came and reported these things to his Master. Then the Master of the house, being angry, said to His servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in here the poor and the maimed and the lame and the blind. And the servant said, Master, it is done as you commanded, and still there is room. Then the Master said to the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that My House may be filled. For I say to you that none of those men who were invited shall taste My Supper. 1 st Corinthians 2:9-11 But as it is written, EYE HAS NOT SEEN, NOR EAR HEARD, NOR HAVE ENTERED INTO THE HEART OF MAN THE THINGS WHICH GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM! But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. Isaiah 64:4, 5 For since the beginning of the world men have not heard nor perceived by the ear, nor has the eye seen any God besides You, who acts for the one who waits for Him. You meet him who rejoices 116

117 Isaiah 35:8, 10 A Highway shall be there, and a road, and it shall be called the Highway of Holiness. But the redeemed shall walk there, and the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come to Zion with singing, with Everlasting Joy on their heads. They shall obtain Joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away. Isaiah 65:13, 14, 16 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD, Behold, My servants shall eat, but you shall be hungry; behold, My servants shall drink, but you shall be thirsty; behold, My servants shall Rejoice, but you shall be ashamed; behold, My servants shall sing for Joy of heart, but you shall cry for sorrow of heart, and wail for grief of spirit. So that he who blesses himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of Truth; and he who swears in the earth shall swear by the God of Truth. Because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hidden from My eyes. Jeremiah 31:12-14 Therefore they shall come and sing in the heights of Zion, streaming to the Goodness of the LORD, in wheat and new wine and oil, in the young of the flock and the herd. Their souls shall be like a well-watered garden, and they shall sorrow no more at all. Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance, and the young men and the old, together. For I will turn their mourning to Joy, will comfort them, and make them Rejoice rather than sorrow. I will satiate the soul of the priests with abundance. My people shall be satisfied with My Goodness, says the LORD. Jeremiah 32:41, 42 Yes, I will Rejoice over them to do them Good, and I will assuredly plant them in this land, with all My heart and with all My soul. For thus says the LORD, Just as I have brought all this great calamity on this people, so I will bring on them all the Good that I have promised them. Ezekiel 34:26 I will make them and the places all around My hill a Blessing; and I will cause showers to come down in their season; there shall be showers of blessing. 117

118 Sing, O daughter of Zion! Shout, O Israel! Be glad and rejoice with all your heart, O daughter of Jerusalem! The LORD has taken away your Judgments, He has cast out your enemy. The King of Israel, the LORD, is in your midst; You shall see disaster no more. In that Day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Do not fear; Zion, let not your hands be weak. The LORD your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will Save! He will Rejoice over you with Gladness, He will quiet you with His Love; He will Rejoice over you with Singing. Zephaniah 3:14-17 Richard Aaron Honorof (1995) announcing the Coming of our King & Great High Priest Yeshua in Jerusalem hear shofar sounds on 118

119 Yeshua s Millennial Reign with His Wife and Friends God s Kingdom of Heaven on earth for 1000 years [1000 years later will come the New Jerusalem] What will all this be like as described in the Scriptures? As I live, all the earth shall be filled with the Glory of the LORD! Numbers 14:21 (also see Habakkuk 2:14 and Isaiah 6:3; Isaiah 11:9; 40:5) Psalm 2:6 I have set My King on Zion, My Holy Mount. Psalm 37:11 But the meek shall inherit the earth, and shall delight themselves in the abundance of Peace. (also see Matthew 5:5) Psalm 132:8, 12, 13, 14 Arise O LORD, to Your resting place If your sons will keep My Covenant and My testimony which I shall teach them, their sons also shall sit upon your throne forevermore. For the LORD has chosen Zion; He has desired it for His habitation. This is My resting place forever! Here I will dwell, for I have desired it. Isaiah 1:26 Afterward You shall be called the City of Righteousness, the Faithful City! Isaiah 24:23 the LORD of hosts shall Reign in Mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before His elders Gloriously! Isaiah 32:1 Behold, a King will Reign in Righteousness, and princes will rule with justice. Isaiah 60:13, 14, 15 I will make the Place of My feet Glorious! And they shall call you (Jerusalem) the City of the LORD, the Zion of the Holy One of Israel. Instead of your being forsaken and hated... I will make you an Everlasting Excellency, a Joy of many generations. Isaiah 62:12 And they shall call them the Holy People, the Redeemed of the LORD. And you shall be called Sought Out, a City not forsaken. 119

120 For behold, I create New Heavens and a New Earth; and the former shall not be remembered or come to mind. But be glad and rejoice forever in what I create. For behold, I create Jerusalem as a Rejoicing, and her people a Joy. I will Rejoice in Jerusalem, and Joy in My people! The voice of weeping will no longer be heard in her, nor the voice of crying. For as the days of a tree, so shall be the days of My people, and My elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands. For they shall be the descendants of the blessed of the LORD. It shall come to pass that before they call, I shall answer; and while they are still speaking, I will hear. The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, the lion shall eat straw like the ox... They shall not hurt nor destroy in all My Holy Mountain, says the LORD. Isaiah 65:17-19, 22, 23, 24, 25 Rejoice with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all you who love her. Rejoice for joy with her, all you who mourn for her, that you may feed and be satisfied with the consolation of her bosom, that you may drink deeply and be delighted with the abundance of her Glory. For thus says the LORD, Behold, I will extend Peace to her like a river, and the glory of the nations like a flowing stream. Then you shall feed; on her sides shall you be carried, and be dandled on her knees. As one whom his mother comforts, so I will comfort you. And you shall be comforted in Jerusalem! When you see this, your heart shall Rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like grass. The Hand of the LORD shall be known to His servants For as the new Heavens and the new Earth which I will make shall remain before Me, says the LORD, so shall your descendants and your name remain. And it shall come to pass that from one new moon to another, and from one Sabbath to another, all flesh shall come to worship before Me, says the LORD. Isaiah 66:10-14, 22, 23 At that time Jerusalem shall be called The Throne of the LORD, and all nations shall be gathered to it, to the name of the LORD, to Jerusalem. Jeremiah 3:17 Ezekiel 34:23, 24 I will establish one shepherd over them, and he shall feed them, My servant David. He shall feed them and be their shepherd. And I, the LORD, will be their God, and My servant David, a prince among them; I, the LORD, have spoken. 120

121 Ezekiel 37:24, 25 David, My servant shall be king over them, and they shall all have one shepherd; they shall also walk in My Judgments and observe My statutes, and do them. Then they shall dwell in the land that I have given to Jacob, My servant, where your fathers dwelt; and they shall dwell there, they, their children, and their children s children, forever. And My servant David shall be their prince forever. And He said to me, Son of man, this is the Place of My Throne and the place of the soles of My feet (Mount Moriah), where I will dwell in the midst of the sons of Israel forever! Ezekiel 43:7 Daniel 7:13, 14 I was watching in the night visions, and behold, One like the Son of Man, coming with the clouds of Heaven! He came to the Ancient of Days, and they brought Him near before Him. Then to Him was given Dominion and Glory and a Kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve Him. His Dominion is an Everlasting Dominion, which shall not pass away. And His Kingdom the one which shall not be destroyed. Daniel 7:18, 27 But the saints of the Most High shall receive the Kingdom, and possess the Kingdom forever, even forever and ever. Then the Kingdom and Dominion, and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven shall be given to the people, the saints of the Most High. His Kingdom is an Everlasting Kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey Him. The LORD shall Reign over them in Mount Zion, from henceforth, even forever! Micah 4: 8 Again the word of the LORD of hosts came, saying, Thus says the LORD of hosts, I am zealous for Zion with great zeal; I am zealous for her with great fervor. Thus says the LORD, I will return to Zion, and dwell in the midst of Jerusalem. Jerusalem shall be called the City of Truth, the Mountain of the LORD of hosts, the Holy Mountain! Zechariah 8:1, 2 121

122 Jeremiah 33:14-18, 24 Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, that I will perform that good thing which I have promised to the House of Israel and to the House of Judah. In those days and at that time I will cause to grow up to David a Branch of Righteousness; He shall execute Judgment and Righteousness in the earth. In those days Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will dwell safely. And this is the name by which He will be called in Her, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS! For thus says the LORD, David shall never lack a Man to sit on the throne of the House of Israel; nor shall the (Aaronic) priests, the Levites, lack a Man before Me to offer burnt offerings, to kindle grain offerings, and to make a (Eternal) Sacrifice for all days! [Yeshua s Blood Sacrifice!] two families (David & Zadok of Aaron) which the LORD has chosen. (God choose these 2 families to Birth His Son through the virgin!) Zechariah 6:11,12,13 Take the silver and gold, and make elaborate (king s) crowns, and set them on the head of Yehoshua, the son of Jeho-Zadok, the (Aaronic) high priest. Then speak to him, saying, Thus says the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the Man whose name is the Branch. From His place He shall branch out, and He shall build the Temple of the LORD! Yes, He shall build the Temple of the LORD! He shall bear the Glory, and shall sit and Rule on His Throne. So He shall be a Priest on His Throne. And the counsel of Peace shall be between them both. (King & Great High Priest Yeshua from David & Zadok of Aaron!) In that Day a Fountain shall be opened for the House of David and for the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for sin and for uncleanness. Zechariah 13:1 And in that Day it shall be that Living Waters shall flow from Jerusalem, half of them toward the eastern sea and half of them toward the western sea; in both summer and winter it shall occur. And the LORD shall be King over all the earth. In that day it shall be The LORD is One, and His name One! And it shall come to pass that everyone who is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Succoth! Zechariah 14:8, 9,

123 Jerusalem, the City which I have chosen for Myself, to put My name there. 1 st Kings 11:(13) 36 Great is the LORD and greatly to be praised in the City of our God, in His Holy Mountain. Beautiful in elevation, the Joy of the whole earth is Mount Zion on the sides of the north (in Jerusalem), the City of the Great King Psalm 48:1, 2 Micah 4:1-5 Now it shall come to pass in the latter days that the Mountain of the LORD s House shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills. And peoples shall flow to it. Many nations shall come and say, Come, and let us go up to the Mountain of the LORD, to the House of the God of Jacob; He will teach us His ways, and we shall walk in His paths. For out of Zion shall go forth the Torah and the Word of the LORD from Jerusalem. He shall Judge between many peoples, and rebuke strong nations afar off; they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war anymore. But everyone shall sit under his vine and under his fig tree, and no one shall make them afraid. For the mouth of the LORD of hosts has spoken (also in Isaiah 2:2-5) O House of Jacob, come and let us walk in the Light of the LORD. Luke 20:35, 36 But those who are counted worthy to attain that Age, and the Resurrection from the dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage; nor can they die anymore, for they are equal to the angels and are sons of God, being sons of the Resurrection. 1 st John 3:1 Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him. Matthew 19:28-30 So Yeshua said to them, Assuredly I say to you, that in the regeneration, when the Son of Man sits on the Throne of His Glory, you who have followed Me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My name s sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and inherit Eternal Life. But many who are first will be last, and the last first. 123

124 Matthew 25:31-46 When the Son of Man comes in His Glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the Throne of His Glory. All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats. And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on His left. Then the King will say to those on His right hand, Come, you Blessed of My Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world! For I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me. Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You? And the King will answer and say to them, Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren (especially Jew & Arab), you did it to Me. Then He will also say to those on the left hand, Depart from Me, you cursed, into the Everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave Me no drink; I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, naked and you did not clothe Me, sick and in prison and you did not visit Me. Then they also will answer Him, saying, Lord, when did we see You hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister to You? Then He will answer them, saying, Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these (especially Jewish & Arab) you did not do it to Me. And these will go away into Everlasting punishment, but the righteous into Eternal Life! Luke 22:28, 29, 30 You are those who have continued with Me. And I bestow upon you a Kingdom, just as My Father bestowed one upon Me, that you may eat and drink at My table in My Kingdom and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel. Revelation 1:5, 6 and from Yeshua the Messiah, the Faithful Witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the Ruler over the kings of the earth. To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own Blood, and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be Glory and Dominion, forever and ever. 124

125 Revelation 3:12 He who Overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the Temple of My God, and he shall go out no more. I will write on him the name of My God (My Father s name) and the name of the City of My God, the New Jerusalem, which comes down out of Heaven from My God. And I will write on him My new name. 3:21 To him who Overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My Throne, as I Overcame & sat down with My Father on His Throne. Revelation 5:9, 10 And they sang a new song, saying, You are Worthy to take the scroll, and to open its seals; for You were slain, and have redeemed us to God by Your Blood out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation, and have made us kings and priests to our God. And we shall reign (with King Yeshua) on the earth. Revelation 20:4, 6 Then I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their witness to Yeshua and for the word of God, who had not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received his mark on their foreheads or on their hands. And they lived and reigned with Messiah for a thousand years. Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first Resurrection. Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of His Messiah, and shall reign with Him a thousand years. Now I saw a new Heaven and a new Earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea. Then I, John, saw the Holy City, New Jerusalem, coming down out of Heaven from God, prepared as a Bride adorned for Her Husband God Himself will be with them and be their God. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes. There shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away. Then He who sat on the Throne said, Behold, I make all things new! And He said to me, Write, for these words are True and Faithful. And He said to me, It is done! I am the Aleph (Alpha) and the Tav (Omega), the Beginning and the End! Revelation 21:

126 I will give of the Fountain of the Water of Life freely to him who thirsts. He who Overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son! Come, I will show you the Bride, the Lamb s Wife. And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me a Great City, the Holy Jerusalem, descending out of Heaven from God, having the Glory of God. Her light was like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal. The construction of its wall was of jasper; and the City was pure gold, like clear glass. The twelve gates were twelve pearls; each individual gate was of one pearl. And the street of the City was pure gold, like transparent glass. But I saw no Temple in it; for the LORD God Almighty and the Lamb are its Temple. The City has no need of the sun or of the moon to shine on it, for the Glory of God illuminated it! The Lamb is its Light. And the nations of those who are saved shall walk in its Light, and the kings of the earth shall bring their glory and honor into it. Revelation 21:6, 7, 9-11, 18, And he showed me a pure River of Water of Life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the Throne of God and of the Lamb. In the middle of its street, and on either side of the River, was the Tree of Life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the Tree were for the healing of the nations. And there shall be no more curse, but the Throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him. They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads! Revelation 22:1-4 Revelation 22:10-14, And he said to me, Do not seal the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is at hand. He who is unjust, let him be unjust still; he who is filthy, let him be filthy still; he who is righteous, let him be righteous still. 126

127 He who is holy, let him be holy still. And behold, I am coming quickly, and My Reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work. I am the Aleph and the Tav, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last. Blessed are those who do His Commandments, that they may have the right to the Tree of Life, and may enter through the gates into the City. I, Yeshua, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the Churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star. And the Spirit and the Bride say Come! And let him who hears say, Come! And let him who thirsts come! Whoever desires, let him take the Water of Life freely. For I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this Book, if anyone adds to these things, God will add to him the plagues that are written in this book. And if anyone takes away from the words of the Book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the Book of Life, from the Holy City, and from the things which are written in this book. He who testifies to these things says, Surely I am coming quickly! Amen. Even so, come, Lord Yeshua! The Grace of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah be with you all. Amen.

Isaiah 30:20, 21 your teachers will not be moved into a corner anymore, but your eyes shall see your teachers. Your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, This is the Way, walk in it... Isaiah 40:31 But those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint. Isaiah 57:15 For thus says the High and Lofty One who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy, I dwell in the high and holy place, with him who has a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. Isaiah 64:6 But we are all like an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are like filthy rags; We all fade as a leaf, and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away. Isaiah 66:2 But on this one will I look, on him who is poor and of a contrite spirit, and who trembles at My Word.

And those who walk in pride He is able to abase. Hosea 6:1, 2 Come, and let us return to the LORD; for He has torn, but He will heal us; He has stricken, but He will bind us up. After two Days He will revive us; on the third Day He will raise us up, that we may live in His sight. Micah 6:8 He has shown you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you, but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God? 129

130 Zechariah 7:9, 10 Thus says the LORD of hosts, Execute true justice, everyone show mercy and compassion to his brother. Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless, the alien or the poor. Let none of you plan evil in his heart against his brother. Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the Great and dreadful Day of the LORD. And he will turn the hearts of the fathers (Old Covenant Jews) to the children (New Covenant Jews), and the hearts of the children to their fathers, lest I come and strike the earth with a curse. Malachi 4:5, 6 Matthew 4:4 But He answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceeds from the mouth of God. Matthew 5:44, 45 But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in Heaven. Matthew 6:20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in Heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. Matthew 7:7 Ask, and it will be given to you; Seek, and you will find; Knock, and it will be opened to you. Matthew 7:11-14 If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in Heaven give good things to those who ask Him! Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the Way which leads to Life, and there are few who find it. Matthew 9:37, 38 Then He said to His disciples, The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest. Matthew 11:28-30 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My Yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light. 130

131 Matthew 7:21-25 Not everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in Heaven. Many will say to Me in that Day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name? And then I will declare to them, I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness! Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the Rock, and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the Rock. Matthew 10:1, 8 When He had called His twelve disciples to Him, He gave them Power over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease. Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons. Freely you have received, freely give. Matthew 10:28 And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. Matthew 12:36, 37 But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the Day of Judgment. For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned. Matthew 12:48-50 But He answered and said to the one who told Him, Who is My mother and who are My brothers? And He stretched out His hand toward His disciples and said, Here are My mother and My brothers! For whoever does the will of My Father in Heaven is My brother and sister and mother. (also in Mark 3:33, 34) Matthew 16:24-25 Then Yeshua said to His disciples, If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it! (see also Mark 8:34, 35 and Luke 9:23) Matthew 18:2-4 Then Yeshua called a little child to Him, set him in the midst of them, and said, Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Therefore whoever humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven. 131

132 Matthew 18:18-20 Assuredly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in Heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in Heaven. Again I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in Heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them. Matthew 20:16, So the last will be first, and the first last. For many are called, but few chosen. (also in Mark10:31) Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you, let him be your servant. And whoever desires to be first among you, let him be your slave, just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many. (also see Mark 9:35) Matthew 21:21 Assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but also if you say to this mountain, Be removed and be cast into the sea, it will be done. Matthew 22:37-40 Yeshua said to him, You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, & with all your mind. This is the first and Great Commandment. And the second is like it, You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two Commandments hang all the Law (Torah) and the Prophets. (also in Mark 12:29-31) Matthew 23:11 But he who is greatest among you shall be your servant. Matthew 26:40 Then He came to the disciples and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, What! Could you not watch with Me one hour? Matthew 28:19, 20 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have Commanded you; And lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the Age. Amen. Mark 1:35 Now in the morning, having risen a long while before daylight, He went out and departed to a solitary place; and there He prayed. Mark 10:21 Then Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him, One thing you lack, go your way, sell whatever you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in Heaven. And come, take up the cross, and follow Me! 132

133 Mark 10:14, 15 But when Yeshua saw it, He was greatly displeased and said to them, Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the Kingdom of God. Assuredly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the Kingdom of God as a little child will by no means enter it. Mark 10:43-45 Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant. And whoever of you desires to be first shall be slave of all. For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His Life a ransom for many. Mark 16:15-18 And He said to them, Go into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature. He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. And these signs will follow those who believe. In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover! Luke 6:37 Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. Luke 6:41, 42 And why do you look at the speck in your brother s eye, but do not perceive the plank in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, Brother, let me remove the speck that is in your eye, when you yourself do not see the plank that is in your own eye? Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck that is in your brother s eye. (Matthew 7:3-5) Luke 10:19, 20 Behold, I give you the Authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, & over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you. Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in Heaven. Luke 11:2 So He said to them, When you pray, say, Our Father in Heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your Kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven! Luke 12:22, 23 Then He said to His disciples, Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; nor about the body, what you will put on. Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing. 133

134 Luke 14:26, 27, 33 If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple! And whoever does not bear his cross and come after Me, he cannot be My disciple! So likewise, whoever of you does not forsake all that he has, he cannot be My disciple! John 1:12, 13 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name, who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. John 4:24 God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship (Him) in spirit and truth. John 6:63 It is the Spirit who gives Life; the flesh profits nothing! The Words that I speak to you are Spirit, and they are Life! John 5:44 How can you believe, who receive honor from one another, and do not seek the honor that comes from the only God? John 7:18 He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory. But He who seeks the Glory of the One who sent Him is True, and no unrighteousness is in Him. John 8:15, 16 You judge according to the flesh; I Judge no one. And yet if I do Judge, My Judgment is True; for I am not alone, but I am with My Father who sent Me. John 8:28, 29, 31-32, 36 When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and that I do nothing of Myself; but as My Father taught Me, I speak these things. And He who sent Me is with Me. My Father has not left Me alone, for I always do those things that please Him! Then Yeshua said to those Jews who believed Him, If you abide in My Word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the Truth, and the Truth shall make you free! Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed. John 10:27-30 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. And I give them Eternal Life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. My Father, who has given them to Me, is Greater than all; & no one is able to snatch them out of My Father s hand. I am My Father are One! 134

135 John 13:14, 35 If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another s feet. By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another. John 14:12, 14, 15 Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the Works that I do he will do also; and Greater Works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. If you ask anything in My name, I will do it. If you love Me, keep My Commandments. John 14:23 Yeshua answered and said to him, If anyone loves Me, he will keep My Word; and My Father will love him! And We will come to him and make Our home with him! John 15:5, 7, 12-15, 17 I am the Vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing! If you abide in Me, and My Words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. This is My Commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one s life for his friends. You are My friends if you do whatever I Command you! No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things I heard from My Father I have made known to you. These things I Command you, that you love one another! John 16:13, 14 However, when He, the Spirit of Truth, has come, He will guide you into all Truth; for He will not speak on His own Authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come. He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you! John 16:24 Until now you have asked nothing in My name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full. John 20:17 Yeshua said to her, Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father; but go to My brethren and say to them, I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to My God and your God! John 21:17 He said to him the third time, Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me? Peter was grieved because He said to him the third time, Do you love Me? And he said to Him, Lord, You know all things; You know that I love You. Yeshua said to him, Feed My Sheep! 135

136 John 21:19 This He spoke, signifying by what death he would glorify God. And when He had spoken this, He said to him, Follow Me! John 21:22 Yeshua said to him, If I will that he remain till I come, what is that to you? You follow Me! Acts 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance Acts 4:31 And when they had prayed, the place where they were assembled together was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the Word of God with boldness. Romans 8:1-16 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Messiah Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of Life in Messiah Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin. He condemned sin in the flesh, that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God. But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Messiah, he is not His. And if Messiah is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is Life because of righteousness. Romans 8:11 But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Messiah from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you. Therefore, brethren, we are debtors not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, Abba, Father. The Spirit Himself bears witness with our Spirit that we are children of God 136

137 Romans 12:1, 2 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Romans 13:8 Owe no one anything except to love one another, for he who loves another has fulfilled the law. Romans 14:17 For the Kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. 1 st Corinthians 6:19 Or do you not know that your body is the Temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? 1 st Corinthians 8:1 We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love edifies. 1 Corinthians 14:18 I thank my God I speak with tongues more than you all; 2 nd Corinthians 10:5 casting down arguments, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Messiah Galatians 5:16, I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who are the Messiah s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Ephesians 2:6, 10 and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the Heavenly places in Messiah Jesus For we are His workmanship, created in Messiah Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. Ephesians 3:16-19 That he would grant you, according to the riches of His Glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man. That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; and to know the love of Christ, which passes knowledge, that you might be filled with all the fullness of God. 137

138 Philippians 2:12,13 work out your own Salvation with fear & trembling; for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His pleasure. Philippians 1:21 For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. Philippians 2:8 And being found in appearance as a Man, He humbled Himself, and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the Cross! Philippians 3:7-14 But what things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Messiah. Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Messiah Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Messiah, and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is from the law, but that which is through faith in Messiah, the righteousness which is from God by faith. That I may know Him, and the Power of His Resurrection, and the fellowship of His Sufferings, being conformed to His death, if, by any means, I may attain to the Resurrection from the dead. Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Messiah Jesus has also laid hold of me. Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended. But one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Messiah Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:23 may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Hebrews 12:1, 2 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, let us run with endurance the race that is set before us. Looking unto Yeshua, the Author and finisher of our faith, who for the Joy that was set before Him endured the Cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right Hand of the Throne of God. James 4:8 Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. 138

139 1 John 1:7 But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another. And the Blood of Messiah Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. Revelation 2:7 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give to eat from the Tree of Life, which is in the midst of the Paradise of God. Revelation 3:5 He who Overcomes shall be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name from the Book of Life; but I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels. Revelation 12:11 And they Overcame him (Satan) by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their (self) lives to the death! Revelation 14:1-4 Then I looked, and behold, a Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having His Father s name written on their foreheads. And I heard a voice from Heaven, like the voice of many waters, and like the voice of loud thunder. And I heard the sound of harpists playing their harps. They sang as it were a new song before the Throne, before the four living creatures, and the elders; and no one could learn that song except the hundred and forty-four thousand who were redeemed from the earth. These are the ones who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever He goes. These were redeemed from among men, being firstfruits to God and to the Lamb. Revelation 14:14-16 Then I looked, and behold, a white cloud, and on the cloud sat One like the Son of Man, having on His head a golden Crown, and in His hand a sharp sickle. Another angel came out of the Temple, crying with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud, Thrust in Your sickle and reap, for the time has come for You to reap, for the Harvest of the earth is ripe. So He who sat on the cloud thrust in His sickle on the earth, and the earth was reaped! 139

140 Revelation 17:14 The Lamb will overcome them, for He is Lord of lords and King of kings; and those who are with Him are called, chosen, and faithful! 140

This book is written as a love offering to my King of Glory, giving Him all the Glory, especially for all He has done for me! Revealing the Mysteries of the Bride of our King and Great High Priest Yeshua! by Richard Aaron Honorof Copyright for Shavuot, May 31, 2017 P.O. Box 32128, Jerusalem 91320, Israel richfms@netvision.net.il Website: Passover, 4/17/2017 LOVE entered the world at Yeshua s Conception, on Kislev 24 His Life began at Conception! (in December : Haggai 2:18, 19) Christ Church, Old City Jerusalem, on Yom Teruah, 2003 Two kudu shofars being sounded together by Richard Honorof, announcing the Coming of our King & Great High Priest Yeshua, who first comes to take His Bride to Heaven for their Wedding! 141

142 My early experiences with my Bridegroom King, 1973 & 1982 I am Jewish. All my four grandparents were Russian Jews. Both of my parents were born in Chicago; but neither believed in God. I never looked at a Bible until I was 29. Then in the spring of 1973, I took a Gideon Bible from a hospital room in St John s hospital, in Santa Monica, CA, & brought it home to read. I began reading from Genesis, and suddenly a passage of Scripture came Alive off the page & into my heart with unbelievable Love, as if God was speaking to me directly from Heaven. This experience of the Living Scripture passages coming Alive with Love from Heaven, as if God was personally speaking to me continued every day, and went on for the next three months, as I read the whole Old Testament. The Scripture passages which came Alive were those which talked about our promised Messiah. Those three months were like living in Paradise, they were so Wonderful! During that time I also read the first four books of the New Testament: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. And then I knew that Jesus is the Messiah, the One that the Old Covenant Scripture prophesies were talking about, & that He was also the One who was making these Scriptures come Alive for me from Heaven. And then God audibly spoke three Words into me, and at the same moment He planted those three Words from John 21:17 of the New Covenant deep into my heart with His divine Love, Living Words that would truly change my life forever, as Jesus spoke, Feed My Sheep! Shortly after those experiences I was tricked by hell and fell, and entered deep into the demonic worlds of drugs, occult, and great spiritual darkness, of terror and captivity. And there I lived in that internal hell, as a prisoner, and for the next nine years, as I suffered constant torments from invisible demonic beings. I never thought I would ever escape out of that torture. And then in 1982, nine years later, on April 10 th, on the Feast of First Fruits of barley, during the Passover season, I drove out to the southern CA desert above Palm Desert. And as I cried out to God for help I was suddenly being lifted up into Heaven. As I was being lifted up, I was shown a vision of a Man dying on a tree, and was aware that whoever was lifting me up, was aware and empathizing with my great suffering. And moments later I found myself in Heaven, standing about 12 feet away from the King of Heaven! [Who is this King of Glory? The LORD of hosts, He is the King of Glory! Psalm 24:10] Standing before me was Yeshua, the King of Glory! He was like the Sun blazing, blazing in its full Glory! I could not see any of His face or His body features because of His Glory, which came from His whole being. But I could see that He wore a very simple golden crown. Revelation 1:16 142

143 He walked over to me and lovingly placed a red crimson robe around my shoulders. He never spoke a word. Moments later I found myself back down in the desert. I knew that I had just been delivered and healed by my Savior, & brought out from those 9 hellish years in the drug & occult worlds. Shortly after that experience God directed me to start writing my first book for Him on the Messiah, using only the Old Covenant Scriptures which He had made come Alive off the pages of the Bible with His great Love nine years prior. This first book took me the next 10 years to write, a book which announced the coming of the Wonderful King of Heaven, my King of Glory! This book was called, The Coming Messiah, The Son of David! It was self published in It quickly sold out. And it was never republished. During that same season God also taught me to blow two kudu shofars at the same time, to announce the Coming of our Lord throughout U.S.A. & Israel. I opened many national & regional Messianic conferences doing this. In 1995 I went to Israel, and soon after became an Israeli citizen. Here I have written and published many more books to announce from Israel and to the nations the soon coming of Yeshua, our King and Great High Priest. I live in Jerusalem with my wife Feryl (Faith) Christine, who was born in Alaska. We met at Mount Zion Fellowship in Jerusalem in We were married in We are both writers for God, for the Salvation of Israel. Here we live happily together, because of God s daily favor.
