ANOTHER SIGN IN THE HEAVENS: THE MESSIAH PLANET JUPITER STRUCK!


On Thursday, March 17th, 2016 (which happened to be Saint Patrick's Day), some amateur astronomers recorded what looked to be an asteroid strike on the planet Jupiter. This is the planet that is prophetically connected to Yahshua or Jesus in His role as our Suffering Messiah, as described in Isaiah 53:5, where it says: “With His Stripes, We Are Healed!”. This may allude to the red and white stripes on Jupiter, as well as to the angry red scourge marks on Christ's body that were present at the time of His crucifixion. Please see the online news articles linked to below this blog post to read about the impact, and to see the video that the amateur astronomers caught the impact flash on Jupiter with.

When I saw this, it immediately brought to mind another recorded celestial bombardment of Jupiter in July of 1994. At that time, beginning on the day of mourning known as the 9th of Av on the Jewish Calendar, Jupiter was bombarded by 21 fragments of the Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9, which was named after two Jewish astronomers. The comet broke up and crashed into the heavy atmosphere of Jupiter over a period of 7 days.

I wrote about the possible prophetic significance of this celestial bombardment in my book "The Language of God in Prophecy". At that time, I was shown that the comet and its fragments represented 22 years following 1994, and that this would be an intense time of persecution for both Houses of Israel - a time period where the wicked would wound the heart of Christ, which was represented by Jupiter being struck by those 21 comet fragments. Also at the time, I thought this 22 years would include the Rapture and Great Tribulation, but I was partly wrong.

It now appears that this period of 22 years, which will end in July of 2016, is signifying THE 22 YEARS OF PERSECUTION OR TRIBULATION OF THE SAINTS BEFORE THE GREAT TRIBULATION. But this new bombardment of Jupiter may indicate that there is another coming year of intense persecution, which may be meted out against the new believers that will rise up out of those who are left behind.

The object that caused this impact flash may also be a fragment from one of the two lovely Emerald Green Comets that just passed the Earth, whose tail debris the Earth is scheduled to pass through very soon. Comet P/2016 BA14 passed the Earth at a distance of 2.2 million miles (3.5 million kilometers) on Tuesday, March 22nd, 2016, making it the third-closest fly-by ever recorded. The comet wasn't visible to the naked eye, and required a professional-grade telescope to witness. It was closest to Earth around 10:30 a.m. Eastern Time that day. This fly-by came hot on the heels of another comet, 252P/LINEAR, which streaked past the planet at a distance of 3.3 million miles (5.3 million km) on Monday, March 21st, 2016 - just 4 days after the impact on Jupiter was recorded. After it passed, Comet Linear brightened enough to be seen in the early morning hours before dawn with the aid of binoculars.

The passing of these two comets, and the mild meteor shower that their debris field may soon cause in the Earth's upper atmosphere, and this new bombardment of Jupiter could be warning signs that the Wrath of God is about to be poured out. I believe that God's Wrath is directed at the wicked upon the Earth after the Rapture in response to the heavy Jewish and Christian persecution going on in the world right now, which I firmly believe is tied to the Fifth Seal cry of the martyrs.

Interestingly, the Hebrew Alphabet has 22 letters, and the 22nd year from the Shoemaker-Levy 9 bombardment of Jupiter is 2016. This means that 2016 corresponds with the Omega or "X" shaped Tav of the Proto-Hebrew Aleph-Bet, which signifies the Cross of Christ. Furthermore, I was shown that Psalm 116 is prophetically connected to 2016, and this Psalm comes just before Psalm 117, the exact MIDDLE chapter of the Bible, and also the shortest chapter in the Bible. At one time, I thought 2017 signified the year that Yahshua would return to fight the Battle of Armageddon after a sever-year Tribulation between 2011 and 2017. But I was wrong because the Bible Prophecy teachers I had trusted and learned from were wrong about many things that they pass off as fact, when it is only theory based on interpretation.

No longer trusting the Bible Prophecy teachers, I did my own intense research, and came up with a largely differing view of what believers will be subjected to before the Rapture and Great Tribulation. First of all, I now believe that the Rapture is a Mid-Tribulation event, and that believers will be on the Earth until the Sixth Seal is opened, and the Wrath of God truly begins to be poured out. I also believe that the inhumanity of ISIS and other Radical Muslim Terrorists toward others, especially Jews and Christians, is a sign that the Fifth Seal has already been opened. Therefore it is highly likely that the Wrath of God that will start with the 6th Seal Cosmic disturbances of the Earth in space, and that will escalate with several terrifying Celestial bombardments described by the Seventh Seal and First through Fourth Trumpet Judgments, is rapidly approaching.

This leads me to ask: "Could this new bombardment of Jupiter be a warning that the Wrath of God is coming soon, and that the Rapture is about to take place? We can only hope and pray that this is the case, for no one knows the exact day or hour. But I am hopeful that this year could truly be the year of the Rapture. So keep looking up, and trust Yahshua to provide for you, protect you and to give you His peace that transcends all understanding until He comes to take us home.

THE RAPTURE PROMISE AT THE RESURRECTION!

Click To Enlarge
Did you know that our beloved Messiah Yahshua or Jesus said something very important about Heaven that is connected to the Rapture right after His resurrection from the dead, and He chose to tell it to none other than Mary Magdalene? Well, it's true! But if you are unfamiliar with Scripture, you may not have heard about it before. So let me enlighten you with this astounding truth of what Christ said to Mary on that Sunday, or first day of the week during Passover Week, and what it meant:
~*~ John 20:16-17 ~*~ “Jesus said to her, “Mary!”
She turned and said to Him, “Rabboni!” (which is to say, Teacher).
Jesus 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.’”
Astoundingly, at that time, Jesus told this beloved, formerly demonized, but fully reformed woman named Mary, who was His dear friend, that He was ascending to Heaven on that very day, which was the day of the Firstfruits Offering in the Temple to Yahweh in Jerusalem during the Feast of Unleavened Bread, which was also known as Passover Week. Therefore, just as the wave sheaf offering of some of the "early-ripened" Barley stalks of the Spring Harvest were presented before God the Father in the Temple Holy Place, Christ was presenting Himself as the Firstfruits of the Resurrection to His Father in the Heavenly Temple!

This ascension into Heaven immediately after the Resurrection of Christ is a type or foreshadowing of the prophetic promise of the coming First Resurrection and Rapture, or catching away of the saints to Heaven that is mentioned in 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17, where it says:
~*~ 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 ~*~ “For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 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.”
This is likely going to happen in the near future, allowing the newly resurrected saints to participate in the Wedding of the Lamb of God in Heaven. This will happen before these same saints return with Christ to an Earth ruined by the Wrath of God. At that time, the saints will aid Christ and his holy angels in fighting the Battle of Armageddon, when the armies of the Devil aligned against Christ and His saints will perish in the Valley of Jezreel or Megiddo, which is just south of the Sea of Galilee (also known as Lake Tiberius). Then the Millennial Rule of Christ will be set up, and we will aid Christ in restoring and renewing the Earth at that time so that it will be fit for human and animal habitation once again. Isn't that amazing and wonderful?! I sure think so!

As this video that I've linked to below tells in a reenactment of the Gospel of Matthew, the First Resurrection actually began with the raising up of many saints in the Holy land right after Yahshua rose from the dead. Like Yahshua's presentation before God the Father in Heaven on the Day of the Firstfruits Offering, this limited First Resurrection of the Saints was a foreshadowing of the Rapture or Catching Away of the Tribulation Saints to Heaven:

Easter Song - Keith Green 
(With Re-enactment of Christ's Death and Resurrection) 

That's why I like to say "Maranatha!", which means "Come, Oh Lord!" {See 1 Corinthians 16:22, which says: “If anyone does not love the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be accursed. O Lord, come!” or, with some Hebrew and Greek added, says “If anyone does not love Adonai Yahshua Ha Machiach, Anathema! Maranatha!”. Also see my footnote at the end of this article}. 

We believers do not say Anathema! and Maranatha! idly, because the wickedness of this current world tells us that Christ's return is imminent, and many of us watching with great longing for His soon arrival. I pray and hope that you are too. In the meantime, I hope that you will also read my recent article that goes into more depth concerning why I believe that the Rapture will be soon - despite protestations on the part of some ministries that deny the hope of the Rapture, and are warning that we will have to suffer through most of the worst part of the Great Tribulation before we are rescued from it. Here is the title and link to my more detailed Rapture hope article:

MY HOPE IN A COMING RAPTURE, 
DESPITE DIRE WARNINGS!

In the meantime, I hope you will enjoy listening to this wonderful worship song rejoicing over Christ's resurrection, and what it means to us:

He Is Risen - Glen Spencer

I Truly Hope This Article Blesses You!
God bless you all, and Maranatha! 
Yahshua is coming for us very, very soon!
Are you Ready?

Footnote: 1 Corinthians 16:22 contains the Greek expression "Anathema" or "Accursed" where it is translated "let them (i.e. apostates) be accursed!". This is followed by "Maranatha", which means "The Lord Comes" or "The Lord is Coming". This part of 1 Corinthians 16:22 should therefore most likely read: "Let them be accursed (or left behind) at the Lord's coming (in the Rapture)!"

THE CONNECTION OF ASH WEDNESDAY AND LENT WITH THE JEWISH FASTS


Seasons of Repentance filled with prayer and fasting and seeking God's Face are highly important parts of our walk with God, although there are no Biblical Feasts that specifically call for this. That is why the Church has created the traditional time for this called Lent, and the Jews have created the traditions surrounding the Three Weeks, and the Days of Awe.

This is also why, whenever Jewish or Gentile believers in Christ say that Christians who commemorate Ash Wednesday and Lent are engaging in biblically false practices, they are not speaking the truth. Sadly, however, these sorts of false doctrinal disputes are rampant in the Church and in Messianic Synagogues today. That is why we need to remember that some Messianic Synagogues and Christian Churches are deeply flawed, and ALL churches and synagogues are flawed in one way or another because human beings are notorious for allowing truth to be mixed with varying degrees of error due to sin. We also need to remember that there is enough of the truth in some of the most deeply flawed Churches to still be called Christian, and in some of the most deeply flawed synagogues to still be called Messianic.

Our objective then, is to lead people in these imperfect Churches and synagogues to a have a better understanding of the Gospel of Salvation, and the Gospel of the Kingdom. Unfortunately, some believers in the wayward churches like the Catholic Church are not encouraged to read their Bibles, so they only know the "not necessarily biblical" doctrines of their Church by heart, rather than what the Word of God says. So, as a way to reach the lost among them, we would be wise to quote all the relevant Scriptures that uphold our position, rather than merely sharing some truth in a way that sounds like an attack. That way, we are more likely to reach people, and to not get kicked out of groups. I learned this the hard way after getting kicked out of many groups on Facebook, and in various online forums.

One of these truths is not really a truth at all, however, and this is true of many supposed truths that specifically attack any and all of the Christian high holy days. One of the oft-repeated claims among some legalists and Judaizers is that Ash Wednesday is not a biblically sound holy day, nor is Lent a biblically mandated fast. But I would beg to differ. A cursory examination of the various rituals and themes in the Bible show that repentance, fasting and prayer are all biblically-sound things that believers are called to do occasionally to keep themselves on the straight and narrow path that leads to everlasting life, and that is what people are called to do during Lent.

Much for the same reasons, the Jews have a three-week period of mourning before the commemoration of the destruction of God's Temple in Jerusalem on the 9th of Av. Although it is not recognized as such, the 9th of Av is analogous to Good Friday, which commemorates Christ's death on the Cross, or the destruction of the Temple of His Body. So the 40 day fast of Lent that begins on Ash Wednesday and ends on Easter or Resurrection Sunday has a Jewish counterpart that also is not Scriptural in the sense that God did not directly tell the Jews to have three weeks of fasting and prayer between the 17th of Tammuz and the 9th of Av, nor did God tell the Jews to commemorate the destruction of the Temple.

Of course, there are some Biblical Feasts and commemorations that we are specifically called to do by God. Just as Jews are called to commemorate the lambs that were offered to pay for their sins and save their lives from the curse of the Angel of Death on the first Passover, Christians are called to be witnesses to the truth of the need for Christ's death as the Lamb of God. In fact, Christians partake of Communion, or the Lord's Supper because Yahshua or Jesus specifically asked His followers to do so in order to remember what He was willingly about to do for them on the Cross.

The nine days of Awe between Rosh Hashanah or the Feast of Trumpets, and the Day of Atonement or Yom Kippur are also considered to be a time for repentance, fasting and prayer. But this period of repentance was not a specifically mandated part of the Mosaic Law. Nonetheless, like the Lenten season in Christianity, the fasting and prayer connected to the Days of Awe are traditions that make sense - especially given the importance of the Day of Atonement, which also has a connection to Christ's death on the Cross.

It is said that on Yom Kippur or the Day of Atonement, if our names are not written on our Heavenly Father's Book of Life, we are not destined to be resurrected into everlasting life on the last day, but are instead doomed to destruction. And this is exactly why Christ died! Christ died so that He could pay the blood price for our sins, and we could inherit everlasting life and have our names written in the Book of Life through belief in Him. So though we receive this gift by faith in Christ, the Jews must fast and pray and repent to obtain this temporary favor from God.

Without Christ, the Jews must prostrate themselves before God every year to obtain a poor reflection of the salvation that believers obtain when they agree to believe in, love and follow Christ, and they receive the Holy Spirit. For believers in Christ, the Spirit of God is the Seal of God's promise of our Salvation, and our direct link to the throne of God - a link that unbelieving Jews have sadly lost. So you see, Ash Wednesday and Lent are not evil or wrong. There is some truth to be found in them, and that is the fact that we all need to fast and pray and repent at times, and to remember why Christ had to die for our sins. If we do not, our walk of faith with God and Christ would not be much of a walk!
