Join us around the table as Sis. Audia, Sis. Anne and myself continue our study on "Are YOU Rapture Ready???" The shofar theme runs through every page of scripture we explore, from the shadow of the feasts to the promise of a trumpet that changes everything. We revisit how Jesus precisely fulfilled the spring feasts—Passover, Unleavened Bread, First Fruits, and Pentecost—and make the case that the Feast of Trumpets points to the rapture: the day and hour no one knows, verified by two witnesses at the new moon. This isn’t speculation for its own sake; it’s a call to be ready, encouraged, and anchored in the hope Paul says should comfort us.

We walk through the core passages—1 Thessalonians 4:16–18 and 1 Corinthians 15:51–52—unpacking what happens at the last trumpet, why the dead in Christ rise first, and how the living are changed in a twinkling. We address common questions about soul sleep, paradise, and glorified bodies, and we clarify the difference between meeting the Lord in the air and returning with him at the end of the tribulation. From there, we outline the prophetic framework: the restrainer, Daniel’s 70th week, the temple, and the midpoint abomination that exposes the Antichrist’s demand for worship through a one world religion push.

Along the way, we keep the focus on hope and responsibility. The Bema seat is not condemnation; it’s stewardship, rewards, and crowns we can lay at Jesus’ feet. The marriage supper of the Lamb points to union and joy, while Tabernacles foreshadows God dwelling with us in the millennial reign. We also offer a clear gospel invitation for anyone unsure about their standing with Christ, because certainty matters when the trumpet sounds.

Welcome And Part One Recap

SPEAKER_01

Thank you so much for joining me on the journey today. Hey, welcome to Simple Assembly Ship and Filtered. I'm Sister Diana. Thank you so much for joining us today. We are continuing with our uh video podcast of Are You Rapture Ready? Part two. Part two. So if you didn't listen to or watch part one, please go back and do that. We're offering this. Um, we just kind of makeshifted a place here that we could sit and share with you why are we doing that?

SPEAKER_02

Because we need to be rapture ready. No one knows the day and time.

SPEAKER_01

That's right. We're gonna go into that. We're gonna talk about what scripture has to say uh in regards to the rapture. Um, if you don't believe in the rapture, then this is not gonna be a podcast for you. Um but I would I would encourage you to listen because it may change your mind. It may change what you think about pre-trib rapture of the bride of Christ. Uh now we talked about in part one how um the fall feast and the supreme feast played such a role in our time here on earth. Now, spring feast, we know, let's just do a little recap of that. We talked about um how Jesus has so perfectly, perfectly uh fulfilled those spring feasts. He was the perfect Passover lamb. He shed his blood. God wrapped himself in flesh, came to the earth, and became the Passover lamb for his creation. He was the only one that could do it. He was the only one. There's no lamb, there's no goat, there's no turtle, pigeon dug, whatever you want to say, that's blood was sufficient for redemption. And we had to be ransomed. A price had to be paid for us. Yes, and only he could do that. And so he knowing, this is can we just talk about this for a second? God knew from the beginning of time that the creation that he had not yet created would need to be saved. Yeah, he did. So before he ever created creation, before he ever created mankind, he already had a plan for the redemption of the sins of the creation he had not created.

SPEAKER_03

Because he knew we weren't going to be able to be perfect.

SPEAKER_01

In that something. Yet he still created us. But he gave us free will, gave us free will, he gave us a choice, gave us a choice, and so that's what's so important. You have to understand that God could have easily been a dictator. Oh, yes, and said, I made you robots. I made you, I created you, and you're gonna worship me. Yeah, yeah. But there's no greater love than if he can say, Yeah, I'm the one that created you, but I don't want to make you love me. Yeah, right. It's yeah. You get to choose if you want to love me back because I love you. That's so that just it blows my mind how how God is so specific in everything he does. Um, we're talking about scriptures about fulfilling of the feast. Uh so Jesus came, he was the perfect Passover lamb, that's God wrapped in the flesh. He was the unleavened bread, the clean clean bread, no leaven was found within him, no, no sin was found in him, and he was buried uh and fulfilled that feast. Then he was uh made the feast of first fruits when he resurrected uh out of that tomb three days later, and then we know that on the day of Pentecost it was fulfilled in the form of the Holy Spirit, right? Right, and so when we we that's our spring feast, and Jesus has so perfectly now listen everything that Jesus did in those first four feasts was done on that day. It wasn't done and then say, okay, put this toward this and then put this toward this. Oh, and then he can be the Passover lamb, but it's on a Thursday or Friday or Saturday. No, it was on that day that they were celebrating it at that time that they were killing the lambs in the temple. And so he perfectly fulfilled when they put him in the tomb. It was the feast of unleavened bread.

SPEAKER_03

That's why that's why they had to go in and clean clean the body, yeah, prepare it for the burial, yeah. And they had to do all of this before sundown of Shabbat.

Free Will, Redemption, And God’s Plan

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, so so he was he perfectly fulfilled them, and in his resurrection, we know that uh he was that feast of first fruit. Right. So Pentecost, we know on the day of Pentecost, the day of Pentecost was the feast of weeks, a wheat, and so he so perfectly fulfilled that and on that day that happened on that day as they're in the upper room uh where they had had the Passover uh meal, and in and now we're gonna start talking about the fall feast. Now, y'all want to say Sister Dinah, sister audience, sister Ann. Y'all, yeah, what's it matter? What's it matter? Now a lot. It matters a lot. It matters a lot. Now we've got some scriptures, and I've asked the ladies to prepare these scriptures because we want to talk about it. Um, we're gonna start with Isaiah 46 and 10. Which one of y'all has that? Me, Audio. Now, this is Sister Audia. I didn't do an introduction when we did uh because before you watch this, you should watch part one. But if you didn't and you're cheating, uh this is part two, and this is Sister Audia Davis. Thank you for being with us today. Sister Ann's over here in Atkins. Thank you for being with us today. Um, we all work with M3 Ministries International here in Forney, Texas. Therefore, that southern drawl that you hear, uh, we're texting through and through, but uh we're we'll we welcome you here because we want to know today, are you rapture ready? Yes, are you rapture ready? Okay, go ahead.

SPEAKER_02

Okay, Isaiah 46, 10.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Declaring to the end from the beginning, yeah, and from the ancient times, things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure.

Prophecy Framework: Isaiah To Colossians

SPEAKER_01

Yep. So from what scripture is saying, Isaiah is prophesying that the end from the beginning has already been done, and and in time everything has been set into motion, and what we see in scripture now being fulfilled at one time had been fulfilled through another part of time. Yes, if you go into the old testament, we've seen that some of those things there, that's why they say um Trump is like Osiris or Trump is like David or Trump is whatever, because the same things are going into motion, there's nothing new under the sun, and things are still going into motion and playing out until the end times, and so it's already been done, it's already been seen, it's already been established, and we're just seeing it play out, and we're getting to be a part of what we're seeing in scripture as a prophecy. We're seeing it be fulfilled, seeing every bit of it be fulfilled, be fulfilled, and so I want you to go right now over to uh Colossians 2.16. Who had that one? I got that one too. You got that one too. Okay, it's just the audience. Colossians 2.16. Now, if you don't have a Bible, I'm gonna put out the same uh thing that I said in part one. If you find yourself new to the faith or you're just curious about uh becoming a Christian, let me just tell you this. It's so simple. Jesus, because he was that Passover lamb, he made a way for you to be saved, that we all could be saved. You're no dirtier than these little old ladies behind his microphone. Let me just tell you, we did some stories, you know what I'm saying? Uh uh, but but the blood of Jesus is enough for you. You're not too far gone, you're not too dirty, uh, you're not too broken, that he can't come live inside of you, and and just make you whole. And so I just ask you if you if you don't know who Jesus is, if you have not uh accept him as your savior, if you've not asked him and repented of your sins and asked him to come into your life, do that. Do that because time is short, and we're gonna we're about to delve into this. And and I pray that it that it that it just touches your heart and and just listen. You can disagree at the end, but please listen uh because you can't say that you weren't warned. This is a warning. This is a warning. And so here we go. Uh this is call uh Colossians 2.16. If you don't have a Bible, go on to uh www.m3mi.org, m3 ministries international, m3mi.org. There is a comment uh drop down there or scroll down, put your name, your address, your phone number, um, and tell us, hey, I'd like to have a Bible. We'll send you one free of charge.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yes. So please go and do that. We will send it to you as quick as we can get it to you so that you can begin to be in the word. Um, so go ahead, Sister Audien.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_02

So let no one judge you in food or in drink or regarding a festival or a new moon or Sabbaths, for which are a shadow of things to come, but the substance is of Christ.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, so under the law, these feasts um uh had to be observed. Okay, what Paul is saying is that you no longer have to observe the feast because in Christ they're being fulfilled.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, right.

SPEAKER_01

Uh Jesus has fulfilled the Passover, the unleavened bread, the first fruits in Pentecost. Now, he will soon fulfill uh the fall feast, the very first one, which will be the feast of trumpets. Okay. Now, sister Diane, why do you think that's gonna happen? And when do you think it's gonna happen? Let me just tell you a little bit about that first fall feast, and that is the feast of trumpets. You'll hear people call it Rosh Hashanah, okay?

SPEAKER_04

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_01

Um, and what they do on this feast, and can I just interject something real quick? Sure. You had read um, is that Matthew uh 2436? Can you go there real quick? I just want you to to read that first part of that one again. Okay, and we didn't plan this one, so she's gonna have to look it up. Um but you but I want you to see something very important here. Jesus Himself tells us that that the time and the hour is unknown, but he never tells us that he doesn't want us to be prepared. Okay, so listen to what he says. And when he when we look at 2436, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

But of that day and hour, no one knows. Stop right there.

SPEAKER_01

Of that day and hour, no one knows. Do you know that in Israel the Jewish people call Rosh Hashanah the feast of trumpets, they call it the festival of the day and hour in which no man knows. That's what they call it.

SPEAKER_02

Because no one knows what time the new moon's gonna come up and who will see it.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, but it's not that they say, um, but nobody knows the day. You know, when we say that, and I've always heard it, and you have too. Yeah. Oh, nobody knows the day or hour when that's gonna happen.

SPEAKER_02

Right. Jesus says, Not even, he says, say it again, not even the angels.

SPEAKER_01

Nope, nope, don't you read right there? Oh, okay.

Feast Of Trumpets And “No One Knows The Hour”

SPEAKER_02

Start from the beginning. Okay. But of that day and hour, no one knows. Stop.

SPEAKER_01

The day and hour no one knows, period, is what they call Rosh Hashanah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Because Jesus wasn't saying that you're not gonna know the day and hour. He was saying that's the feast. That's the feast. Because in Israel, that's what the feast of trumpets is called. It's the feast of the day and time when no one knows. Why? Because it's a it's a three, is it two or three days? Three day three day starting.

SPEAKER_02

To sundown on the 24th.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, so it is three days.

SPEAKER_04

Yes, right.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. So what happens is they start their feast and and this year it falls on the 22nd. Yes. Right? Yes. Uh on Monday. If you're watching it no m Sunday's the 21st. Okay. So if you're watching this, today is the 18th. September the 18th, 2025. Right. On Monday at sundown, they begin this festival. The one that is the one where no man knows the day or time. Because it's determined when the actual festival begins, when they see the new moon. The new moon. And so there has to be two witnesses. Two witnesses that are looking out, looking for the new moon to come up, and if the new moon comes up, and the two witnesses confirm it, yes, the festival begins. The feast begins. Right. Okay. Now, what does that matter? Because at the Feast of Trumpets, the trumpets are sounded. They blow the shofars. They blow the shofars, and a hundred shofars are blown. Okay. This year is the first time I think I ever have remembered in time where I wasn't paying attention that they're actually going to televise the blowing of the shofars.

SPEAKER_02

Now, do they blow them e simultaneously or do they blow them one at a time? One at a time. Okay.

SPEAKER_01

One at a time. Okay. Okay. So now I want y'all to look at some scripture. Um, because I want you to know that what Jesus was saying wasn't that you're not going to know the day or the hour. He was saying that the feast in which it's going to happen is the one that's called No Man Knows the Day or the Hour.

SPEAKER_04

Yes.

SPEAKER_01

Of trumpets. Okay. So let's look at um let's see. First Thessalonians 4 16.

SPEAKER_03

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

He's got that one.

SPEAKER_03

I do.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, go ahead.

SPEAKER_03

4 16. For the Lord Himself will come down from heaven with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet call of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. Therefore, encourage one another with these words.

SPEAKER_01

Encourage one another with these words. So at the trumpet, at the sound of the trumpet, the dead in Christ will rise first. Now, what does that mean?

SPEAKER_03

Does that mean our graves are going to be open?

SPEAKER_01

The graves will be opened. Yes. Okay, so if you've never heard of this, hear me out. Okay. There are people in as Christians that believe in what's called soul sleep. Now, when they say soul sleep, they mean that when you die, that you basically are asleep until this trumpet sounds, and then you're awakened, and your body's made incorruptible, and you go to heaven. Okay. Now, I'm not a person that believes in soul sleep. Okay, let me tell you why. When Jesus was on the cross, there were two thieves beside him. One of the thieves mocked him, the other thief repented and said, I know that you are who you say you are. And Jesus's reply to him was what?

SPEAKER_02

Today thou shalt be with me in paradise. Today.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Now, if you don't know what paradise is, in the Old Testament, when people died, because there was not yet bloodshed, perfect bloodshed, they went to a place called paradise. Um, and paradise was the holding place for those who had died in relationship with God. Okay.

SPEAKER_03

Now that's different from purgatory.

SPEAKER_00

That's not purgatory.

SPEAKER_03

No, no.

SPEAKER_01

There's not a purgatory. Okay. There's not a purgatory. I just wanted to put that out there so everybody knew. You had two, you had two options. You had uh Abraham's bosom, uh, or you had Sheol. Sheol. Um and so, and there was a chasm, a water that ran in between the two. They were side by side. In the Old Testament, the Old Testament saints who believed in the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, when they died, they went into Abraham's bosom. Okay. And if you died not in relationship with the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and you worship false gods and and all that stuff, you went into Sheol. Now, when Jesus died on the cross, he didn't go into the tomb and just take a nap. He was busy. And he went into hell. Colossians says that he goes into he went into hell and he took back the keys to death, hell, and the grave that Adam had given up when he sinned. And in that he preached himself to those in Abraham's bosom. Okay, in paradise. Okay. Now, that's why he told the thief, today you will see me where?

SPEAKER_03

In paradise.

SPEAKER_01

Why?

SPEAKER_02

Why was Jesus in paradise? Because he had to go there. The Old Testament saints had to accept Jesus to be resurrected.

SPEAKER_01

They had to have the opportunity to receive Jesus' blood for the remission of their sins. Why? You can't go to heaven in your sin. No, you have to repent. Nobody could go to heaven in their sin. That's why they were in paradise. They weren't in heaven. Paradise wasn't in heaven. Paradise was in the bowels of the earth.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

Rapture Texts: Thessalonians And Corinthians

SPEAKER_01

They weren't already walking around and all that stuff. They weren't there yet. And so Jesus goes and preaches himself. And they had to have his blood that he had just shed to cut to redeem them of their sins. It doesn't matter if you were Abraham or Isaac or Jacob or Moses or Noah or whatever, you still had to prophet you still had to have that blood cover your sins. It had to be remitted, right? Right. And so when he told the the thief, I'm going to see you today in paradise because he was going there. When I'm done here, that's where I'm going. Right. So now we get that. So the the the thief had the opportunity to get you know uh saved, if you will, uh, by receiving what Jesus was doing on that cross. And so in that, we know that when we die, we I don't believe in soul sleep for the very reason that the thief got to see him that day. The saints were there and redeemed that day, yeah, right? And so I believe that um when you when you go to sleep, you go to heaven. Your your spirit goes to heaven, your body decays back to the ash, the the dust, if you will. And so I believe that. And I believe that what Paul is talking about here in First Thessalonians is that Jesus will not return to the earth. No, Jesus is gonna step out of heaven into the second heaven, and he is going to uh have the trumpet blown, and the dead in Christ are gonna rise up. That means that their spirit that's in heaven will come and meet their body. And you say, Well, Sister Dinah, how do they meet their body? Well, because that corruptible flesh that became ash is going to be made incorruptible, Paul says. Yeah, um, you're gonna get a glorified body. Amen. Amen. So this body, so this body that we have right here that just is tithed and torn up, you know. Yeah, you know, I I have I'm I'm I'm just like a scarred version of everything, you know, is gonna be resurrected and we're going to to well, I don't believe I'm gonna die. I believe we'll be resurrected, but nevertheless, that's another podcast for another day, right? So I believe that when when when we the trumpet is blown, our body is going to be made incorruptible. It's gonna be restored to the best version of who we are. Our spirit's gonna be met with him, and we go into heaven with the Lord to meet the Lord in the air, it says we meet him in the air. Okay, and so then it says that those who are dead in Christ, that's what's happened, and then those that are alive and remain uh will be called up. Okay, so we're that's what happens, and that's why um our bodies are made incorruptible. So if if if that trumpet blows and it's time for us to go, all of this pain and aches and all of this is it has to go, and and and we're changed and and we we go to be with Jesus. Now, why is that important? Because uh we're gonna rule and reign with a thousand years. Yeah, it's important because we have a part to play in the millennium. Yes, yes, right, yeah. Um, and so when you when you die, uh I want to just clarify this to everybody who is listening. You do not become an angel. No, you don't become an angel, you don't get wings, sprout wings, and start flying around. They are created beings. They are created beings that had wings, and you will not sprout wings uh when you get to heaven. Now, will you fly around, be tr teleported, and all that? I believe that. And I and I believe that you'll have the ability to go from one place to another, like teleportation, but I don't believe in you're gonna sprout wings and be flying around everywhere. That's my personal opinion. And so, anyway, so we know that at that last trunk that the dead in Christ are gonna rise first, and then those who are alive in the well will re that remain will be caught up to meet them in the air, and we meet Jesus and we go there. Now, I want to read one more script. Who's got first Corinthians 15 52? I do. Okay, go ahead.

SPEAKER_03

In a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet, for the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.

SPEAKER_01

This they'll stop right there. When the last trump is sound, now what did we just talk about? It's gonna happen on the Feast of Trumpets. They're going to blow the trumpets.

SPEAKER_02

The first one.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, shofar is the trumpet. It is the type of trumpet that they use, which is actually like a ram's horn. Right. And they take a ram's horn and they make this instrument out and they hollow it out, and it makes the most beautiful sound. If you have not listened to one, go Google it. The sound of a shofar. It is something.

SPEAKER_02

I have great admiration for those people.

SPEAKER_01

Audia has a shofar that she blows and she turns the darkest red I've ever seen. The darkest I've ever seen. But she did. You do were pretty good. She does pretty good at it. I wouldn't, I probably wouldn't be able to do it. It's a lot of air. But anyway, it's the most beautiful sound. That's what we're gonna hear. We're gonna hear that shofar sound, and and the dead in Christ are gonna rise first, and those that are alive and remain will be caught up to be with him in the air. And Paul tells us right here in 1 Corinthians, at the last trump. The last trump. At the last trump, Jesus has already told us it's gonna be during the day and time where no man knows the day or hour. Right? And so Jesus will again fulfill the prophecy. The fall feast. He's gonna fulfill the feast of trumpets. So the feast of trumpets is coming this week. Now, Sister Diana, are you saying that we're gonna get raptured this week? I'm not saying that. I'm saying that when it does, when we are raptured, it will be during the Feast of Trumpets. Now, I want to interject something here because we we have we have listened to a whole lot of different things that are going on, right?

SPEAKER_04

Mm-hmm. Yes.

Soul Sleep, Paradise, And Glorified Bodies

SPEAKER_01

I want to share this information with you. If you have not seen it on some other reels that are going around, and I wish I knew that girl's name, it doesn't show her name, but she has a uh a reel that's called Looking Up, L-O-O-K-I-N up. And and she um breaks down the timelines and all this stuff, and so um in her thing, and and she goes right along with um, we were watching uh Rick Renner, um Joseph Jonathan, Jonathan Khan and Joseph Z, and every and just you can name it, everybody's on the same page, right? But when they talk about um Bible prophecy, and I'm not talking about somebody prophesying today, I'm talking about thousands of years ago, people prophesied, God gave them words that are written in scripture, just like Jesus fulfilled, has fulfilled over 300 different prophecies in scripture already. Okay, they prophesied the last days and what would happen during these last days. Now, a lot of people say, are we in the end times or are we on the last days? When we did this uh revelation study uh back in 20 through 22, we did it for two years. Um, I said, I believe we are in the end times. But I want to tell you today, I believe we're in the last days.

SPEAKER_02

I agree.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I believe it with every fiber in my being that we are in the last days of. uh the church age yes that means that that um the church age is is is is us people who are christians right now um who are living on this earth who will be called up to be with jesus and when the holy spirit leaves um and the restrainers who he's called is uh taken back then i believe we're gone i don't believe we can be here without the holy spirit because jesus said he would never leave us or forsake us that's right right and so if he says that then he means that and it says the only way that the antichrist can come into power is if the restrainer is removed the icky icky evil stuff that you see right now happening on this earth and you're going I can't believe how bad the world has become is with the restrainer restraining yes this is going to be like patty cake compared to a fish slam it is if you've never read if you've never read the book of Revelation um I had somebody argue with me uh during COVID to say oh uh COVID started and now we're the seals have been broken and all this and I said you will never convince me that the tribulation has started and we're all sitting at home watching Netflix yeah yeah it's not gonna be Netflix baby please is it was not it the the birth and pains yes yes but you will not be sitting at home watching Netflix when the first trumpets begin to blow after the seals are broken and the and all that has already started um you may have an an okay time that first three and a half years but even in that there is some some hard things that are gonna come right and and and I'm gonna tell you once once once those bowls begin to be poured out the wrath of God uh ensues now we had a I've got a couple more scriptures I want them to read to y'all just before we go into to some deeper study but we're in first Thessalonians 5 3 and do you have that?

SPEAKER_03

Yes while people are saying peace and safety destruction will come on them suddenly as labor pains on a pregnant woman and they will not escape.

Why The Trumpet Timing Matters

SPEAKER_01

Okay here we go now what what Paul says in in chapter four we're talking about the church is taking up the church is gone that the the the restrainer the Holy Spirit that we carry inside of us is removed right and so we're gone we're in heaven and there's a seven year period that's about to start now at that seven year period that's the tribulation period that is revelation and starting in chapter four yes okay so if you have not gone and read Revelation go read it if it scares you find somebody that that's on YouTube. I like to listen to David Jeremiah he's very knowledgeable Rick Renner's very knowledgeable I mean Jonathan Conn even I mean there's just so many people that that know what they're talking about but but but Paul tells us clearly here in chapter four that we're gonna be caught up we're caught up in a twinkling of an eye and we're gonna be called to be with the Lord why is it important that we be with Jesus those seven years well there's two things that are going to happen when the bride of Christ is called up to be with her groom okay Jesus is considered our groom we are considered to be his bride right so when we are called to be with our groom two things are going to happen the first thing that we're gonna do is that we're gonna be standing before what's called the judgment seat of Christ or the Bima seat yeah B E M A seat and we're going to then be accountable for what did we do with our free salvation now are we going to be accountable for our sins no no because our sins are covered by the blood of Jesus why we accepted his redemption we accepted his blood and it was poured out upon our sins because we made him Lord and savior of our life our sins are covered by his blood so we don't stand at that seat to take an account for our sins but we will take an account for what did you do with your free gift of salvation yeah what did you do did you go to church every Sunday Sunday night Wednesday night and pay your tithes give offerings and that or did you feed the homeless did you feed the hungry did you take care of the widows and the orphans did you pray for Jerusalem did you did you what did you do with what I gave you did you bring anyone into this kingdom did you share Jesus with anybody did you love anybody I want to tell you on interject this right here because we had an amazing weekend last weekend and we had the opportunity to just kind of come alongside of uh KG Ministry Kaylee Gabbard Ministry and they what they do is they have a whole phenomenal team that comes into a location uh where there's a lake or a pond or wherever um and they set up and do uh open door baptisms right and so their team is trained and qualified and prepared I'm sure they go through you know fasting and and everything that you have to do in order to do that type of ministry. Yeah um and they they come in and they do it but we were able to come alongside and say there's gonna be a lot of people here they're gonna need some snacks and water and ice and and just things like that and and and what we found was while we were doing that we were praying with them yep we were we were high fibing each other we were like hugging each other um it was the most phenomenal thing because when people came out of that water I was like did you get baptized they were like yeah I said do you feel different and they're like I do I do and they're just and it and that's what baptism should be about is when you go down it's not getting wet no it's it's crucifying that flesh and the water and you come up a new creation and and so you everything is so brand new for you and we were just there to love on them and to just I mean it was just exciting I mean like I said we were high fiving everybody and loving everybody and hugging everybody and just it was so powerful. It was it was just it was it was a little taste of heaven yeah um it didn't there was no political mess there was I mean the most peaceful glimpse it was just a glimpse of how we're gonna be at heaven no nothing else mattered but Jesus right yeah just Jesus and it was just so powerful it was wonderful and so we read where were we at uh um we just read first first Thessalonians 5 and 3 yeah okay so let's look at um but it it talks about right there after the rapture read that three one more time this is after the rapture Paul says we've been called up we're standing before Jesus we go through that judgment uh uh based on what did we do with our salvation and also guess what happens during that seven years we're all going through our judgment we all what did we do with our salvation guess what Jesus does for us gives us rewards based on what we did for him right man yeah I mean you know yeah I want to get a lot of stuff on my crown but I'm gonna tell you why and I'll probably get emotional because I want to be able to lay that at his feet I want to be able to say I did this with what you gave me because I want to lay this at your feet I don't deserve any of it yeah because I I've seen and I've done some bad things in my life and but I want but I am trying to gather every jewel I can on those crowns I want to take I want to make heaven crowded right and and and I want I want those jewels and I want those crowns to lay at his feet for what he did for me you know because he rescued me truly you know you see Jesus running after that dirty stinky slimy little lamb uh been in the mud and the mire and the milk and all that that was me you know and he came and got me and rescued me. He could have left me he could have said let that one go you know because they they too far gone but he didn't he came and rescued me and y'all know that story if you haven't if you haven't heard that go back and listen to it but but you know I was in the middle of a bar when Jesus showed up and and that was after I was a Christian. That was after I messed up and and and that's what I want to tell you you're not too far gone. No you're not too far that Jesus won't come and just no one is pull you out of that pit that you feel like you're in that's his specialty you know that's what he does.

SPEAKER_03

He you know um he meets you where you're at you know some people say um oh you're too far gone you're too broken you're too dirty uh uh Jesus can't do that you just don't you know because the enemy's gonna tell you that that you're too far this you're too far that let me tell you yeah you're not no if it because if you read first Thessalonians 5 4 say it but you brothers and sisters are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah so here's what what Paul's saying is you're gonna know right you're gonna know don't be so watch for the day and time watch for the hour watch for the seasons watch for the moons listen to the feast watch the feast because you won't be caught all be surprised like a thief in the night because we're all children of the light and children of the day. Yeah so Jesus has promised us that he that he's made a way for us and and and if you find yourself too far away just repent just say God I'm sorry I'm sorry uh I'm a sinner but I need you Jesus I need you to come in I need that that blood to just wash my sins away and I want to be a new creation I want to be what you've called and chose me to be you're not here by accident you know I'm just gonna tell it my mom and daddy I think the story was I was conceived at the drive in um so it was probably I mean I don't know I don't want to know all the details but but my point is is that that it wasn't it might have been a surprise to them but it was no surprise to God he chose me to be placed there right then yeah he chose me for that time to be here now you're chosen right you're chosen to be here right now you have a purpose God has a plan for you so repent and ask Jesus' sake Jesus I'm sorry I repent of my sins come and live inside of me and I want to make you Lord of my life you know it's that simple right I acknowledge ABC I acknowledge I'm a sinner and I'm in need of salvation I believe that Jesus came as a as a virgin birth that he died and rose again um and he paid the price for my sins and I confess you now Lord as Jesus as my Lord and Savior and so the ABCs that's all you need to do and you are a new creation he will come and live inside of you if you ask him to and so it doesn't make you perfect it makes you forgiven it makes you a brother and sister in Christ with us so that when this last trumpet sounds we get to go be with Jesus now you say well if I get saved today I'm not gonna have any rewards you get to go to heaven you get to go to heaven that's a reward that's your reward you get to be with Jesus yes the one that prepared a way for you the one who made it made a way for you you get to go and be with him and so let me just tell you your name gets written in the book yeah your name gets written in the book um after the rapture of of the church of the bride of Christ we go before the judgment seat the Bama seat we get we get our rewards in which we don't need any of that we're gonna give it back and but then too there's what's called a marriage supper of the Lamb and that means we're all together at this marriage supper and we get to be with Jesus and we just you know we're fellowship and we're all together but we're with him in an audience of one you know I saw somebody was talking about the other day how they had a vision of they were sitting beside Jesus at this long table and and and Jesus was just there and all these people were around him. But then he knew that when he looked that everybody at the table felt like they were next to Jesus. Yeah because he's just that way I mean you you are as important as Billy Graham. Rush you are as important as a Catherine Coleman to him. And regardless of anybody that's ever famously died in Christ you mean as much to Jesus as anybody else and because it's not by their works that they're getting there anyway. Right? And so um the feast of trumpets is fulfilled the bride in Christ goes to be with her groom and we're at the marriage supper okay so Jesus fulfills that but listen to this this year now we need to get into this really quick because we're at the end of this at the end of this year at the end of the the the Feast of Trumpets this year that's September the 22nd through the 24th 2025 from that exact day until September the 15th 2032 seven years later is exactly 2550 days. Right now Sister Diana why does that matter because Daniel prophesied yes that between this down that the that between the beginning of the tribulation and the end of the tribulation there would be 2500 and 50 days talking about the first part of the tribulation and the second part of tribulation okay now why does that matter because there's never been and there never will be again that exact number of days 2550 days but this year's dates line up perfectly seven years apart is what Daniel prophesied in Daniel 9. Okay who's in Daniel are you there you there okay read what it says Daniel 9 what was it 27 27 then he shall confirm a covenant with many for one week but in the middle of the week he shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering okay stop right there now I want to tell you this after we're gone the tribulation begins the first part of the tribulation is going to be chaotic in that millions of people have disappeared on the earth from the rapture. Right in that a person who comes upon a the political scene will be um very charismatic he will be very uh peace speaking um and he will have a solution for a peace solution now everybody and their dog want to think Trump is gonna be the Antichrist okay let me just tell you right off that he cannot be no okay and and you say well Sister Diana why can he not be the Antichrist? He's always speaking all this peace all over the world um because the person that comes into power um that's going to come and bring this peace will be someone who uh the Jews the orthodox Jews will believe to be their messiah coming because they did not receive Jesus as messiah they had him crucified right right right um the orthodox Jews still believe their messiah is coming that's why they want to build this third temple that is why they want to begin offering sacrifices again because they believe in doing that it will usher in their messiah okay so this person is going to be someone who comes from the right lineage of uh Abraham Isaac and Jacob i.e from one of the 12 tribes of Israel okay there's gonna be another thing another factor that people don't talk about the person who is fulfills the role of the AC the Antichrist is going to be a person who is not um he does not like women he does not have an affinity for women and and so what we see is um he could be a homosexual could be okay yeah he could be someone um who just says I'm not married and all this stuff but he has an affinity he has no uh affinity for women at all so the person that takes on this role and I pray that you're not here to see it uh will be someone who is uh of that lineage and it'll be a person who does not have a wife we'll put it that way um and so it can't be Trump he has no uh lineage of of uh any of the twelve twelve twelve tribes of Israel in his background he he white he's very white and so he cannot be that he gender and so the he comes in as a person of peace um and for the first three and a half years he is gonna come side by side with what they call the false prophet that will be the person who is trying to create a one world religion okay I have my opinions about who it is we won't speak it because we don't want to the the right cause anybody not to want to listen but but that person is going to push the one world religion the Chris the what's it called Chrislam that they're pushing right now in which they combine the three main religions that are in Israel at the moment at at the temple mount. Now understand Christianity believes that Jesus is going to return at the temple mount the Muslims believe that their Mahi is going to return to the Temple Mount the the Jews believe their messiah is going to return to the Temple Mount and so the Temple Mount plays the big role uh in the end times um but that but but what happens is is that um um when this person comes into power they're going to be on the side of the Jews who feel like it's their messiah that's why it's important that this red heifer was actually a red heifer that was good because they were able to offer the sacrifice to do the purification for the temple to be built that's what they needed it for. And so um I believe that that was a real uh burning I believe that that they were able to get the ashes that were necessary to begin to do this. Um therefore that puts the timeline a lot quicker right and so um in doing that the person that's gonna come into power is going to be on the side of the Jewish people to say I'm bringing you peace I got you nobody's gonna mess with Israel and and and and we got this let's build the third temple let's finish the third temple um and we know that all the implements for the third temple are already prepared we know that the the priests are already ready robed and ready and trained ie that's why the priest was already ready to do that sacrifice the other day he was from the right tribe of of Levi um and and so all of that is ready the the construction of the temple uh is already there's area already being gated off and signs that show that's where they're gonna begin to build okay and so all of this is already in play now why is it important that about the third temple well is because the Jews are so pushing that so that their messiah can come but what happens at that three and a half year mark there's a seven year period there's that time that Daniel says is the first time the first three and a half years the time times time and a half right and and then you have that second part well the second part is what he's talking about here because then he's gonna go into the temple and he'll be known then for who he really is why because that holy of holies that they have been offering sacrifice in will be made desolate meaning he's gonna go in there and take out all of that out of there and proclaim himself to be God and that you must worship him as the beast he will be this way he's called the beast he wants to be worshipped and he wants to be considered to be God. And if you don't this is where the mark of the beast comes from if you do not worship the beast then um you cannot receive the mark and and everything changes after that. Now we can have a digital currency right now we're going into that Trump has signed a paperwork where we're beginning to go into the digital currency and and the crypto dollars and all of this stuff but the mark is an actual mark it's a mark that's on your your forearm uh forehead and your and your uh uh arm here and and I believe that um that it's gonna be very visible it's not gonna be something that's uh invisible and and people say why do you say that because the devil wants people to know who his people are right you know you're all gonna run around with a bar cut that's what I'm saying you're not gonna be is it is that one of mine no you're gonna know because there's gonna be some type of tattoo something there that's gonna signify you belong to him yeah right and so you can't not you okay let me just say this you cannot accidentally take the mark of the beast can you go turn that off can you turn that out just to hit that little button you cannot accidentally take the mark of the beast all right so we got some technical difficulties but can you get it turned back on probably had to pull it out of there so let me just tell you we're gonna finish uh on this uh podcast as she tries to fix the video you had to pull it out yeah just just pull it straight up yeah just push it straight up there you go all right so let me just tell you this because you've got to have that mark on you and because that mark is gonna identify you Sister Ann is trying to fix our uh video back there once you bring it here all right so we're talking about and it isn't it ironic that we're talking about this very subject yeah when this happens mad okay so let me just tell you it's almost like a okay go back there and just start recording okay just zoom in in and get us at that get us in there yeah yeah okay all right so here we go um I'm sorry about the technical thing but um but I don't want to lose this moment we're 57 minutes in we're about to close I just want to I just want to tell you just hold it just hold it just hold it and start it and get it in just look at us just turn it on and zoom in all right so we're tagging this we're gonna tag this on to this video part two of are you rapture ready is because we're about to step into this time frame that could easily fulfill Jesus could easily fulfill the the feast of trumpets um because that time frame of the 2550 days in which Daniel said would happen in the last days um from the time of this September the 22nd 23rd this uh feast of trumpets that are coming up this week um that will run um um through the next seven years to september the 15th twenty two thousand thirty two which will then be the second coming of Christ now the second coming of Christ what does that mean at the end of the seven years remember we're with Jesus during the doing the marriage supper of the lamb we're with him with our groom as the bride at the end of that seven years we return we return with him at the end of the tribulation period at that time jesus be fulfills the next feast which is the the the atonement he becomes the atonement for sin everything has to be atoned for he came for the gentiles first but then he's returning for the Jews he's returning for Israel and when they see him then the Bible says that they will realize what they did that they killed the one that was their Messiah and and so it's important Jesus is about to fulfill the feast of trumpets and at the end of that seven years we'll come back with him and he will atone for the sins of Israel okay and so after that happens we know that the millennium reign begins and that fulfills the feast of tabernacles because he will come and dwell with us. And if it doesn't happen this this time if it doesn't happen this week then we need to be busier than ever to comment because it is coming and it's gonna happen during that time period. And if it is this week the question is are you rapture ready? Are you ready to meet Jesus in the air? If you don't know for sure You need to be sure. You need to make sure that you know that you are gonna make heaven your home. You need to make sure you're not gonna be left behind. Because if you have not received the the the redemptive blood of Jesus Christ as the remission of your sins, you're gonna go to hell. You you more than likely, let me just rephrase that. You more than likely are gonna spend eternity in hell because you then have to make it through the tribulation period without the mark of the beast in order to be saved. That's what scripture says. That if you have there will be people that make it through, but there's not a whole lot. No, and there's gonna be martyrs. Then you're martyred. It says that they're beheaded. It's horrible. You don't want to there's people think they can make it to the tribulation. Let me tell you, it's no walk in the park. There's gonna be meteors that hit the earth. There's a meteor that's supposed to hit the earth uh April the 13th, 2029, called a pophis. And isn't it ironic that it's three and a half years after the date of this feast of trumpets this year? Exactly. The 1260 days from this feast of trumpets is a pophis is supposed to hit the earth. Which in Revelation, when the trumpet is sounded there, is there's supposed to be a meteor that hits the earth.

SPEAKER_02

The water's gonna be poisoned.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, there's just there's so much that's gonna happen because that's the first meteor. Then there'll be a second meteor that hits the earth on the Mediterranean side. But everything in the ocean will be killed. It'll be turned to blood. I mean, it's it's it's more than you can imagine, more than you can fathom. So for people to say they want to go through that, it's just there's no point. You don't have to just repent. Make Jesus the Lord and Savior of your life. Let Him come in and wash you clean. Doesn't make you perfect. I mean it positions you to become a Christian every single day. We every single day are striving to be more like Christ. And I just want to encourage you to do that as well.
