| October 11th, 2018, True Feast of Trumpets - A Month later than the Jewish Calendar Shows! Click to Enlarge. For Best View, Right Click, and Open In New Window |
For Born Again believers that love and follow Yahshua's commandments, and therefore have the assurance of the Seal of the Holy Spirit guaranteeing that their names have been written in the Book of Life, it is not a time to mourn, but a time of joyful anticipation of the coming Catching Away or Harpazo/Rapture - also known as our Blessed Hope, which could be tied to anytime during the 22 days between the Feast of Trumpets/Rosh Hashanah and the last day of the Feast of Tabernacles or Sukkot.
This year, though this 20 day Rapture Watch period will fall between the evening of September 9-10th and September 30th this year per the most widely accepted Jewish Calendars, it appears that - per the Signs in the Heavens - this 20 day period will actually fall between the evening of October 10th and the evening of October 30th, 2018. So we have a long Rapture Watch period this autumn that will extend all the way to the end of October this year.
In this article, I want to show why I think the actual Feast of Trumpets of 2018 may begin on the night of October 10th, 2018, and last for two days - through to sunset on October 12th. My conclusion is based on the Signs in the Heavens rather than on the Feast of Trumpets marked on the Orthodox Online Jewish Calendar, which shows that the Feast of Trumpets will fall on September 10th and 11th, 2018. But the New Moon likely won't be visible on the night of September 9th, or early morning on September 10th either. Because the Moon will be too close to the Sun and the New Moon crescent will not be visible, September 10th probably won't be the first day of the Feast of Trumpets.
Before I explain more about why I feel this way, let's take a quick look in Scripture for the main verse that tells us why these Heavenly Signs are so important for us to look at. The disciple of Yahshua or Jesus named Luke, a physician who wrote the Gospel of Luke and the Book of Acts, recorded Yahshua as saying the following to His disciples shortly before His crucifixion and resurrection:
“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; 26 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.” ~ Luke 21:25-26This portion of Luke Chapter 21 and all of that chapter parallels Yahshua's End Time Signs Discourse in Chapter 24 in the Gospel of Matthew. Both of these Gospel chapters say that the End Times will be marked by unusual Signs in the Sun, Moon and stars. Fascinatingly, as the graphic below documents, there are many Heavenly Signs that God has shown me over the past 12 years, and in retrospect, I now believe that the Heavenly Signs between 2010 and 2019 appear to be pointing to the Feast of Trumpets in 2018 as a possible time for the Rapture or catching away of the saints. This is because of the unusual set of Triple Blood Moons that mark both 2011 and 2018 on the graphic below. Furthermore, 2018 is a Jubilee year, and the Rapture is also thematically tied to the cancelling of debts and the rest from work associated with the Jewish year of Jubilee:

An interesting thing to note here is that, at one point, I was convinced that the Feast of Trumpets that fell on September 9th and 10th, 2010 was the one that would mark the Rapture of the Bride of Christ, and that the signs that followed this date were marking the supposed seven years of the Great Tribulation (which is actually only three and a half years). But instead, it appears to have marked the Tribulation period that was to come before the Great Tribulation that Yahshua or Jesus talked about in the message to His Apostles that is recorded in the Gospel of Matthew, Chapter 24.
Remarkably, this time period has seen a dramatic escalation in ALL of the heavenly and earthly signs that Yahshua told His disciples to watch for as the Sign of the Son of Man approached that would mark when the Rapture would take place. There have especially been many signs in nature in the form of dramatic increases in earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, violent storms, tornadoes, floods, fires, sinkholes, insect, bird, fish and animal deaths, and fireballs spotted in the heavens. There has also been much distress among the nations, with increased terrorism, increased lawlessness, and much wickedness in high places being exposed.
In retrospect, as I reflect on all the heavenly signs I've reviewed over the years with detailed explanatory graphics like the ones shown in this article, many of them have shown that the promised Rapture of the Saints is near, and these promises in the heavens have blessed the saints and kept them hopeful. To see a clear breakdown of the signs and what they mean, please read the text on the full color graphics in this article, as they are very interesting, and well worth pondering. Nonetheless, there has been some discouragement too.
For example, many born again saints believed that the Sign of the Woman Clothed With The Sun on September 23rd, 2017, which appeared a day after Yom Teruah or the Feast of Trumpets in 2017 (See the graphic below) was the Sign of the Son of Man that would immediately appear in the sky before the Rapture. But alas, it was not the full revelation of it. Personally, I think the Sign of the Son of Man is a series of heavenly signs, and that they began in earnest in 2010. However, the Sign of the Woman Clothed With The Sun of September 23rd was a powerful sign that the return of Yahshua to retrieve His Bride and glorify her in the Rapture is very near.

Now, because of some Jewish expression clues left in the New Testament, the Rapture is thematically tied to the Feast of Trumpets, which could only be announced when the priests on the Temple Mount sighted the first faint silver of the New Moon, usually just after sunset on the night of the Feast. Remember, Jewish days begin at dusk on the night before. This year, that New Moon will likely not be sighted until the night of September 11th, 2018, as the next graphic in this article below shows:

Since the New Moon crescent this September will likely first be visible only on the evening of September 11th, 2018, this would make September 12th and 13th the possible Feast of Trumpets, and the possible D-Days of our Deliverance from this sinful, decaying, dying world. In that regard, I'm so looking forward to our entrance into our Heavenly Father's House in the glorious Kingdom of Heaven to attend the Wedding of the Lamb of God - Yahshua our Bridegroom - to His beloved Bride, the Two-House Church of Judah and Ephraim. However, as I explained earlier, it appears that October should be the actual seventh month on the Jewish Calendar this year rather than September, making October 11th and 12th, 2018 the true Feast of Trumpets. But if the Rapture does occur on September 11th, it will mark the anniversary of September 11th, 3 BC, when Yahshua's Sign of imminent birth - The Woman Clothed With The Sun - appeared in Heaven above Jerusalem, as shown in the graphic below:

Interestingly, the Bible also states the fact that all Jubilee years are to be marked as beginning on the Day of Atonement, which is when the names of those who are saved will be signed and sealed in God's Book of Life. In Leviticus 25, verse 9, quoted below, it clearly says that the trumpet of the Jubilee is to sound on the 10th day of the seventh month, which is the Day of Atonement. The quotes from the Book of Revelation that follow the quote from Leviticus show that the Book of Life is a real heavenly document that lists all those who will be saved and granted everlasting life:
Leviticus 25:8-10 ~ “And you shall count seven sabbaths of years for yourself, seven times seven years; and the time of the seven sabbaths of years shall be to you forty-nine years. 9 Then you shall cause the trumpet of the Jubilee to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month; on the Day of Atonement you shall make the trumpet to sound throughout all your land. 10 And you shall consecrate the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a Jubilee for you; and each of you shall return to his possession, and each of you shall return to his family.”
Revelation 13:7-9 ~ “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. 8 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.”
Revelation 20:11-15 ~ “Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. And there was found no place for them. 12 And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. 13 The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works. 14 Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15 And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.”So, since the Jubilee of 2018 started on the Day of Atonement in 2017, it officially will end on the Day of Atonement this year, which is either on September 21st or October 20th this year, depending on whether you want to follow the Jewish Calendar or the Signs in the Heavens, which are pinpointing October as the correct month for the Autumn Feasts to begin. According to a word that the Lord gave to me last year, I also firmly believe that a Day of Atonement is going to mark the end of the Age of Grace, although I was not shown in which year this would be.
Due to this word, it makes sense to me that the Day of Atonement may also mark the Rapture, and the deliverance of those whose names are firmly written in the Book of Life. But even though I think the Day of Atonement at the end of this Jubilee year fits the criteria for being tied to the Rapture best, God our Heavenly Father will choose the day of the Rapture, and it could be at any time, and we know from all the signs that it is soon. Nonetheless, it's clear from the scripture references to trumpets and the last trump in regard to the Rapture in 1 Corinthians 15:51-53 that the Rapture theme fits a time when trumpets figure prominently, as they do in all the Feasts of Israel, but especially in connection with the Feast of Trumpets. As the end of an Age, the Rapture should be tied to trumpets marking the end of a season or year that opens the way to a new season or year, which is what the horns blown on the Feast of Trumpets, and at the beginning and end of a Jubilee year are meant to announce.
Back when I wrote my book "The Language of God in Prophecy" in 2006, I didn't have a full picture of the meaning of the Signs in the Heavens between 2010 and 2019. I only knew that they were important, and might mark the timing of the events leading up to the Great Tribulation, or the Great Tribulation itself. Later on though, because I was told that all of Daniel's Seventieth Week was not speaking about seven literal days, but referring to the seven years of the Great Tribulation, I assumed that these may indeed mark the time of the Great Tribulation for several compelling reasons. But these all proved to be wrong, and this was partly due to one glaring fact. The Book of Daniel and the Book of Revelation both clearly teach that the Great Tribulation is only three and a half years, as shown by being referred to as 1,260 days or 42 weeks in various places in both books.
I have long been aware that Yom Teruah or the Feast of Trumpets has a definite connection to the Rapture of the Church and the Last Trumpet that the Apostle Paul spoke of in reference to the Catching Away or Rapture in 1 Corinthians 15:51-53, where it says:
“Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed— 52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.”This year, the last trump reference in the above scripture has even more significance because 2018 is a Jubilee Year, or the Special 50th year in a Biblical Jubilee Cycle that once marked the Forgiveness of all Debts and the Freedom from all Slavery in Ancient Israel, and this special Jubilee ends on the Feast of Trumpets, which the Jews will celebrate beginning at sunset on September 9th, and ending at dusk on September 11th, 2018, since it is traditionally celebrated for two days in a row. But the real Feast of Trumpets may well be in October of this year, which means we should not get discouraged if the Rapture does not occur this September, or even if it does not occur this year. In addition, we need to remember that there have been numerous signs that we are very close to the end of this Age of Grace. So even if we're still here after the Autumn Feasts have passed, we should keep looking up, for our redemption draws ever nearer, and there are many signs that our Blessed Hope in the Rapture will not be in vain!
Praise Yahweh Elohim, His Son Yahshua
and the Holy Spirit for the Rapture!
and the Holy Spirit for the Rapture!
Yahshua is Coming Soon For His Beloved Bride!
With Love From
Your Sister In Yahshua,
