Thoughts on the double portion...
One of my favorite results of bringing this information to Unsealed is that people wrote comments and mentioned other ideas. One such idea that I never thought of while writing my article was presented somewhere back in this thread and it came about as someone questioned, as we were talking about double 50s, and that 50 means completion and this sometimes results in a blessing (for instance: after 50 years, a Jubilee, and THAT would be a blessing), the question presented by this person was whether there was something in this idea that speaks of a double-blessing. THERE IS!!!The fact that there is a double blessing and it is associated with the SECOND GREAT RESURRECTION SIGN, caused my heart to jump with joy. I deal with the double blessing idea at page 57 of my article (first post of this thread). However, I was just looking at this idea again, because it blesses me, and it did again, and I want to show you something I had stated before.
By the way I just looked at this interesting article about the following verse: www.bcbsr.com/survey/eli.html 2 Kings 2:9 And it came to pass, when they were gone over, that Elijah said unto Elisha, Ask what I shall do for thee, before I be taken away from thee. And Elisha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me.You know, if you are keeping up with this thread, you understand that rapture, fifty, and now double portion are words and concepts obviously associated with Elijah. Anyway, let me just copy what the article says here:Miracles in the Career of Elijah: 1) Causing the rain the cease for 3 1/2 years (1Ki 17:1) 2) Being fed by the ravens (1Ki 17:4) 3) Miracle of the barrel of meal and cruse of oil (1Ki 17:14) 4) Resurrection of the widow's son (1Ki 17:22) 5) Calling of fire from heaven on the altar (1Ki 18:38) 6) Causing it to rain (1Ki 18:45) 7) Prophecy that Ahab's sons would all be destroyed (1Ki 21:22) 8) Prophecy that Jezebel would be eaten by dogs (1Ki 21:23) 9) Prophecy that Ahaziah would die of his illness (2Ki 1:4) 10) Calling fire from heaven upon the first 50 soldiers (2Ki 1:10) 11) Calling fire from heaven upon the second 50 soldiers (2Ki 1:12) 12) Parting of the Jordan (2Ki 2:8) 13) Prophecy that Elisha should have a double portion of his spirit (2Ki 2:10) 14) Being caught up to heaven in a whirlwind (2Ki 2:11) Miracles in the Career of Elisha: 1) Parting of the Jordan (2Ki 2:14) 2) Healing of the waters (2Ki 2:21) 3) Curse of the she bears (2Ki 2:24) 4) Filling of the valley with water (2Ki 3:17) 5) Deception of the Moabites with the valley of blood (2Ki 3:22) 6) Miracle of the vessels of oil (2Ki 4:4) 7) Prophecy that the Shunammite woman would have a son (2Ki 4:16) 8) Resurrection of the Shunammite's son (2Ki 4:34) 9) Healing of the gourds (2Ki 4:41) 10) Miracle of the bread (2Ki 4:43) 11) Healing of Naaman (2Ki 5:14) 12) Perception of Gehazi's transgression (2Ki 5:26) 13) Cursing Gehazi with leprosy (2Ki 5:27) 14) Floating of the axe head (2Ki 6:6) 15) Prophecy of the Syrian battle plans (2Ki 6:9) 16) Vision of the chariots (2Ki 6:17) 17) Smiting the Syrian army with blindness (2Ki 6:18) 18) Restoring the sight of the Syrian army (2Ki 6:20) 19) Prophecy of the end of the great famine (2Ki 7:1) 20) Prophecy that the scoffing nobleman would see, but not partake of, the abundance (2Ki 7:2) 21) Deception of the Syrians with the sound of chariots (2Ki 7:6) 22) Prophecy of the seven-year famine (2Ki 8:1) 23) Prophecy of Benhadad's untimely death (2Ki 8:10) 24) Prophecy of Hazael's cruelty to Israel (2Ki 8:12) 25) Prophecy that Jehu would smite the house of Ahab (2Ki 9:7) 26) Prophecy that Joash would smite the Syrians at Aphek (2Ki 13:17) 27) Prophecy that Joash would smite Syria thrice but not consume it (2Ki 13:19) 28) Resurrection of the man touched by his bones (2Ki 13:21) I thought with this count of "miracles" again it is easy to see that there truly was a double portion on the life of Elisha. But in my article I mentioned that Elijah had 7 miracles and I wondered, how did the author get 14 miracles? Am I going to have to revise? Oh......the author treated any prophetic utterance from Elijah as a miracle. Well...OK. In my mind Elijah was passive with his being fed by ravens. Oh, well, I guess that is OK for illustrative principals to show all those things, but if we really wanted to only look at acts done rather than things said or things that happened to you, I would list Elijah's miracles as seven below:1) Causing the rain the cease for 3 1/2 years (1Ki 17:1) 2) Being fed by the ravens (1Ki 17:4) 2) Miracle of the barrel of meal and cruse of oil (1Ki 17:14) 3) Resurrection of the widow's son (1Ki 17:22) 4) Calling of fire from heaven on the altar (1Ki 18:38) 5) Causing it to rain (1Ki 18:45) 7) Prophecy that Ahab's sons would all be destroyed (1Ki 21:22)
8) Prophecy that Jezebel would be eaten by dogs (1Ki 21:23)
9) Prophecy that Ahaziah would die of his illness (2Ki 1:4) 6) Calling fire from heaven upon the groups of 50 soldiers (2Ki 1:10-12) 11) Calling fire from heaven upon the second 50 soldiers (2Ki 1:12) 7) Parting of the Jordan (2Ki 2:8) 13) Prophecy that Elisha should have a double portion of his spirit (2Ki 2:10)
14) Being caught up to heaven in a whirlwind (2Ki 2:11)The reason I mention this is because of that Menorah thing. I wanted to see if in this list of 7 miracles, like a menorah, would the middle miracle, the 4th branch, contain elements of the Servant Branch and those elements include fire, service, brilliance, shining. Well what do you know about Elijah's middle miracle? Look above.But Elisha received a double portion. Double is better. I have not done the Servant Branch analysis yet fully for Elisha and his 14 active miracles. My question is, when all 14 active miracles are shown, with the resurrection of the dead soldier touching Elisha's bones being his last are considered. Would there be two groups of seven and for each group of Seven is there a middle miracle that has any Servant Branch characteristics. I'll work on that later.Who gets a double blessing: (from gotanswers.com)"The concept of the double portion is first mentioned in the Law of Moses: “But he shall acknowledge the firstborn . . . by giving him a double portion of all that he has, for he is the firstfruits of his strength. The right of the firstborn is his” (Deuteronomy 21:17). A firstborn son was entitled to receive twice the inheritance of that of a father’s other sons, in addition to the right of succession."Do you see how the double blessing idea is died into the SECOND GREAT RESURRECTION SIGN OF 9/23/2017? We have TWO counts of fiftySaints, do you know that you are an heir? Not only an heir but did you know that means you are considered by God as a "firstborn" son? Do you know that means you are entitled to receive a double portion? Saints, you are a part of the "man-child" that is spoken of in the SECOND GREAT RESURRECTION SIGN OF 9/23/2017" BUT currently be joyful, you are now saved, AND very shortly you will be doubly joyful, you will be raptured to the throne room. Joy is one element of the Pentecost promise of what happened to the 120 in Acts 2, And this is part of your double portion.The raptured Church here Saints is not the only corporate entity to receive a double blessing. "Isaiah 61:7 promises a double portion of joy and blessing upon Israel: “Instead of your shame there shall be a double portion; instead of dishonor they shall rejoice in their lot; therefore in their land they shall possess a double portion; they shall have everlasting joy.” The reign of the Messiah during the millennium will occasion everlasting joy.
In a related "double-blessing" passage, God restored to Job twice as much as he originally had before his time of testing: “And the LORD restored the fortunes of Job, when he had prayed for his friends. And the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before” (Job 42:10). It could be said that Job received a “double portion.” "Saints, as we count near the end of our second fifty, know that you are blessed beyond all measure for not only what you have now, which is love, joy and peace, but for what is in store for us shortly. I do pray for my friends that they can be encouraged by Scripture and be encouraged as this incredible year of God's sign, chosen by God to be 2017, winds down.
Remember Saints. Pentecost is the middle feast. Servant Branch elements? include fire, service, brilliance, shining...Daniel 12:3 And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.
Blessings Saints. Soon we rise and shine.

For members and guests who appreciate a historical perspective there is this:
It has been known from the time of this posting that if you have a double fifty, and if the double fifty is connected by the last of the first fifty count being the first of the last fifty count, it multiplies the blessing parameters geometrically rather than arithmetically. If one count completely ends, cutting off the blessing vector forcing a re-route, and more blessing energy must be expended creating a brand new identical count, the blessing potential has been diffused and jeopardized by lack of spiritual energy focus.
So from a perspective of the "pentetuchian first-born, spiritual blessing multiplier theory" we can understand why the fiftyfifty idea is better for maximizing spiritual blessing reception than the fifty - fifty idea.
Saints, blessing is building up for the conclusion of the second fifty!! WILL IT BE AN EXPLOSION OF BLESSING"
According to the historical "pentetuchian first-born, spiritual blessing multiplier theory" We are thinking the end of the count may be it.
For those who do have a historical aptitude this theory was established at 12:02pm December 12th, 2017. I took 10 minutes above to document the complete history of this idea. You take it from here.
Blessings Saints. Soon oh real soon.
This was a joke. Of course it is history. It was 15 minutes ago. The day of overlap was Sunday November 12, 2017. A gift of "The Mystery of the Menorah" (by Church and Stearman) to first member claiming it, whose birthday is on November 12!

I like the "fifty" question. The first mention of "fifty" is in Genesis 6:15. It is in regards to the dimension of the Ark of Noah. It dimensions of 50 cubits wide gave in a 3:1 ratio. And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.The ark was a boat of safety from God's wrath. The last "fifty" was mentioned in Acts 19:19. This was when Spirit of the fear of God went through the city Ephesus. The people burned their books of witchcraft which cost over 50,000 pieces of silver. Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.
Also fifty was the first number Abraham spoke in order for God to spare Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 18:24). However, we also know that there was only 3 counted worthy.

Two times that Jesus refers to about what times would be like when we ought to be thinking about an escape... the time of Noah, & the time of Lot,
Two times when "escape" occurs.
Two times when fifty is mentioned.
#1 with Noah's ark (as in the days of Noah) fifty cubits, continuing the theme is
#2 the first salvo out of the Father's mouth as He begins negotiations with Abraham (of all people...why Abraham? Think! Think! Child of Abraham by faith who have been declared righteous, think why now fifty, when discussing saving the righteous relatives of Abraham in Sodom (as in the days of Sodom) is mentioned. Two escapes, two fifties connected by an escape) ... is Abraham telling us something of the escape of a distant generation of Abraham's relatives?
hmmmm
Blessings Saints. Doesn't matter how you get there as long as we all get there together.

(assume that we were raptured on December 31, 2017)
Imagine with me Saints.
I pick up the story and we, the raptured Church, are...who knows 3 years or so... into the Tribulation on earth (this is imaginary right now, I know some here think we are actually in the third year of the Tribulation) but we are part of the Church in Heaven and we actually having been there three years and we just don't think too much about the Tribulation on earth as we are there in heaven. And finally perhaps after 3 or so years, we have developed a routine that is less tumultuous and there are celebrations and receptions and speeches and classes. However one of the most exciting receptions is for Enoch...and then we realize it will be on the 3rd anniversary after the rapture and so everyone wants to go.
You see Enoch has lived now for over 5,000 years and in terms of age, without dying, He is tops, he has jokes from every millennium, he is hilarious and he is your ancestor and we all love him. So everyone has had a chance to meet him and he is going to be speaking at this special reception which is special because those invited were only those who did not die during their natural life. It is Enoch, the Church and Elijah was invited. Of course the Holy Spirit and the Father are there. They are omnipresent. So is Jesus but he declined to make a statement at this reception because He really wanted this reception to be a bonding experience for Enoch and the Church that he spoke to and whom he mysteriously represented in Genesis 5.
Enoch loves this because he and Elijah through the last 2500 years or so have had kind of an enjoyable joking relationship where Enoch continually called Elijah "Kid" and Elijah didn't really like it. And Enoch would say things like, "This not dying thing is great isn't it?" and Elijah would have to agree but he knew Enoch knew that he was going to have to go back as one of the two witnesses and suffer death and Elijah would smile because he knew there was great honor in it that Enoch could only dream to desire...and Enoch did desire it but he knew God had another reason for keeping him.
So anyway, Elijah was invited because he had not died yet, but Elijah has not yet been made incorruptible so he was uncomfortable coming and anyway he was doing his call down fire thing on earth. Anyway, Enoch loved it because Enoch was made incorruptible at the rapture of the Church (maybe). But there you are, you, also being one of those souls who did not die, now an incorruptible, you are there, with countless others, all in white, all shining, all with joyous anticipation and then an angel introduces him and Enoch comes on stage, after the dinner which of course was exceptional, they all applaud and it seems endless.
...and he begins to speak...
"My name is Enoch.....(pause as crowd cheers)......never asked about my last name (crowd roars...)... This is a special occasion. I am having this special get together with ONLY those who are the few in the world's history, who have never died. Congratulations for being here. (laughter). You know if this speech does not go well it will be the first time I died. (crowd moans...)...Some of you just barely made it (crowd roars...)...I am the Seventh From Adam...by the way Adam was not invited (again crowd roars knowing that he died in his early 900s) but of all of you who never died...I want to ask you a question...
First, I want you to know, in all humility, that I pretty much wrote the first chapters of Genesis and Moses plagiarized! My name means Teacher and that was what I was for Moses... (Crowd roars knowing the truth of how the Spirit inspired all writers and now they know that the book of Enoch was on the ark and read by Moses) AND you...But as a Teacher, I want to know how my students did. So, kind of like a test, I do want to ask you all one thing. (oh ohhhhh the students murmur)
I put a hint in the first part of what is now is called Genesis 5 about when I would finally get visitors here in Heaven and when you would all come here to join me. Oh I love these words, it wasn't hard to memorize them..I wrote them!!! (crowd roars with approval...)...My hint was this as I spoke of when I , myself, made my entrance, without dying, into heaven...Let me quote me (crowd laughs) Genesis 5:23 "And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years: 24 And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him."
How many of you knew what my hint was about? (crowd murmurs someone shouts out "The Rapture") Yes, it was definitely a hint about the rapture. So listen....I asked God if I could say I was raptured on the 365th day of the year but the Gregorian calendar was too confusing to explain to anyone up here so, it seems God was willing to negotiate when it comes to the escape of His Saints...talk to Lot about that! (crowd roars because they know Lot's life was negotiated for by God and Abraham) but only if the deal gets better for them, and so he wouldn't let me be born on the 365th day but He did determine, as a compromise, to take me on the 365th year. He also told me He would put some day for a year passages in the Bible so you all would be aware of it if you were a Bible lover.
So, I want to ask you all...how many of you here.... you are all incapable of lying now (much laughter from the crowd)...and incapable of pride (more laughter) but how many came to realize that my message was that God was going to rapture you all out of 2017 on the 365th day of the year? (there is quiet in the crowd but then a certain area of the reception hall is erupting in cheers, Enoch realizes who it is because he has talked with many of them in the preceding days so Enoch responds)...Oh I see there is some activity in the Unsealed section. (Crowd roars because they knew by now that many there were watching, they had talked with them)...Then Enoch says, "Why is no one standing at the unsealed moderators table? (everyone in the unsealed section roars with laughter).
Saints. Ok. I knew this is dumb. But I can't wait to meet Enoch and we can all show off our "I got raptured at 365" buttons. Hope you can stand.
Blessings Saints. Soon we rise and Shine.

The seven days of Creation. On which day is there a light up and a raise up?
The seven miracles of Elijah. On which miracle is there a light up and a raise up?
The seven years of Jacob's trouble. In which year are the two witnesses lit up and raised up?
The seven feasts of the Lord. At which feast is the Church lit up and raised up?
Blessings Saints. Soon we rise and shine. (see that middle word, the servant branch)

PART 1. I AM TREMBLING NOW
Isaiah 66:1,2
This is what the LORD says:
"Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. (I believe this. Let God be true and every man a liar)
Where is the house you will build for me? Where will my resting place be? (Saints, look down, don't attract attention, I think God is angry at those who think they have a right to be proud, He hates that! Avert your eyes if you are proud. Avert even if not. He is angry and rightfully so.)
Has not my hand made all these things, and so they came into being?" declares the LORD. ("Yes Lord you created everything we see, even our eyes to see them." He is saying this because not only did He make all these things but His word tells us how He did it and there are very proud people on earth who tell us their made up myths about what God did and how He did it, and not only are the things they teach in error, but arrogantly, they say, "What is said in the Bible CANNOT be right!! The Bible is but mythology!!" And, being arrogant, they do not even know they teach in error and they lead people with weak minds, and children, astray)
"This is the one I esteem: he who is humble and contrite in spirit, and trembles at my word."
I am a sinner saved by grace and that requires one to be humble and contrite. I do tremble at God's word. I tremble at the approaching end of this End of Pentecost Season count that I think God indicates will terminate on December 31, 2017.
Leviticus 23:15 And ye shall count unto you from the morrow after the sabbath, from the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave offering; seven sabbaths shall be complete: 16 Even unto the morrow after the seventh sabbath shall ye number fifty days; and ye shall offer a new meat offering unto the LORD.
Saints! When you realize that at the end of the end of Pentecost count, it is time for Pentecost to finally be fulfilled, and it is fulfilled with a harvest, 1984 Gregorian years later, YOUR RAPTURE! You have thought about this right? You have imagined yourself up and in a new existence, but, you realize that after you are raptured, out of gratitude, you MUST show God how appreciative you are, you will offer yourselves, your crowns, as an eternal sacrifice to serve your God whom you are just then, for the first time, seeing as He is. "New Meat" refers to what has just been harvested! That's you. This is heavy stuff. It is meaningful.
In eternity you will only have ONE MOMENT that will be your FIRST MOMENT seeing, embracing, having the Lord of Creation for the very first time, face to face, look deep into those eyes of yours that He created. To the extent I can, I would like that moment to be memorable. Not only for me but for the Lord who created me.
I want to think about this moment a little. Do you? What should we do? What are we going to say? I know, let's GO TO SCRIPTURE!!!
Psalm 66:
(To the chief Musician, A Song or Psalm.) Make a joyful noise unto God, all ye lands:
2 Sing forth the honour of his name: make his praise glorious.
3 Say unto God, How terrible art thou in thy works! through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves unto thee.
4 All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing unto thee; they shall sing to thy name. Selah.
5 Come and see the works of God: he is terrible in his doing toward the children of men.
6 He turned the sea into dry land: they went through the flood on foot: there did we rejoice in him.
7 He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes behold the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah.
8 O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard:
9 Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.
10 For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.
11 Thou broughtest us into the net; thou laidst affliction upon our loins.
12 Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water: but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place.
13 I will go into thy house with burnt offerings: I will pay thee my vows,
14 Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in trouble.
15 I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of fatlings, with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. Selah.
16 Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul.
17 I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.
18 If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me:
19 But verily God hath heard me; he hath attended to the voice of my prayer.
20 Blessed be God, which hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.
"This is the one I esteem: he who is humble and contrite in spirit, and trembles at my word."
Blessings Saints. Soon we rise and shine and offer ourselves a new meat offering to the Lord.

I must say Daniel your writing and typing skills are light years above mine. How in the world do you do it.  I'm so slow in typing and writing because I have to proof my typing a hundred times before I post it.  Btw, Loved the Enoch speech story.  Truly, we have a lot to learn from Enoch especially his last words recorded. However, it is no laughing matter. Jude 14-16 And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints, To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him. These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage. The Lord is coming with his Saints.  Even so come Lord Jesus. |

PART 2. I AM TREMBLING NOW
Isaiah 66:2
This is what the LORD says in Isaiah 66:2 - "This is the one I esteem: he who is humble and contrite in spirit, and trembles at my word."
I love those who tremble at His word. I wish that that was what I was known for. Instead I am known for opposing those who do not.
Saints, did you know that Psalm 67 was a Psalm liturgically sung by Israel at FEAST OF PENTECOST?
I am excited that many are now thinking about Pentecost and even creating new threads where they work and work and work to figure out a way to prove this thread here to be either correct or incorrect. I applaud you all and I hope you come to a conclusion in the next 18 days. You do have a time limit you know. Further, since there has never been a rapture of the church before, looking at Israel's history or even church history will not get you all the way there. Why? Daniel 12:4 promised new knowledge and if you don't use it, your conclusions will of necessity be taken a different direction. However I love that there is interest at Mt. Sinai. That is where the First Trump of God was. God was attempting to negotiate for a Bride. Israel blew it when the agreement was presented to them right when they decided to worship the golden calf. Worst timing possible.
However, there is plenty in Scripture to teach us truth about Pentecost and what it means and how it will be fulfilled.
May I show you an incredible passage from Scripture? Psalm 67 (you know the one sung at Pentecost) has but 7 verses and 49 words.
OK, Saints, if your are ready to TREMBLE AT HIS WORD with me, let's explore...but wait, I want to explore this passage with these two ideas...
Idea #1 - Since it has 7 verses, what does the middle verse suggest such that it could be considered a "Servant Branch"
Idea #2 - If this Psalm 67 was truly sung at Pentecost, will there be a revealing anywhere of something that could be seen as the rapture which occurs at the termination of the Pentecost season, or the result of the rapture or anything like that? And if it is there, in what verse is it in?
Warning: Let me "tell you what I am going to tell you" so that right from the beginning if you disagree with me already, you need not waste your time having me prove something to you that you have already concluded you will NOT find in Scripture.
Psalm 67:4 is a servant branch verse, and "nations" ties us in to Pentecost.
Psalm 67:6 is a rapture concept laden verse as it requires a HARVEST that is a BLESSING to make any sense.
Let's look: (To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm or Song.)
Psalm 67
1 God be merciful unto us, and bless us; and cause his face to shine upon us; Selah.
2 That thy way may be known upon earth, thy saving health among all nations.
3 Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee.
4 O let the nations be glad and sing for joy: for thou shalt judge the people righteously, and govern the nations upon earth. Selah.
5 Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee.
6 Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us.
7 God shall bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear him.
I think this Psalm 67, in that it has 7 verses, speaks of the seven millennia of earth history and we are now, presently, living and breathing, you and I, at the end of the sixth millennia.
1. God's face shown on the face of the deep in the first millennium.
2. "God's way be known on the earth" is a great prayer prior to the flood in the second millennium.
3. God began to teach us to praise Him during the third millennium as the Torah was written.
4. It was at the end of the 4th Millennium that JESUS WAS BORN to rule and judge righteously and SAVE the nations, ALL OF WHICH NATIONS ARE INVOLVED IN THE CREATION OF ONE GREAT NATION IN A DAY, that happens (again) at the rapture.
5. The beginning of the 5th millennia is when Jesus ministered for joy and began to cause gladness.
6. At the end of the sixth millennium, The earth will yield her increase (this is not just talking about food). This is talking about belief and faith. Jesus had Pentecost on His mind when he refused to see the Gentiles who had come to Jerusalem and wanted to meet him at the end, this last trip to Jerusalem that Jesus will make in the flesh and Jesus was focused on Passover, Unleavened Bread, First Fruits & Pentecost because, You needed the first three feasts fulfilled before you could START PENTECOST and work towards a harvest. The harvest is at the end of the sixth millennium and separated by at least 1984 years from the inception of Pentecost at the beginning of the 5th millennium.
6 Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us. (Saints! This is a rapture verse! It is a harvest!)
John 12:20 And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to worship at the feast: 21 The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus. 22 Philip cometh and telleth Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus. 23 And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified. 24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit. 25 He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal. 26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.
Jesus would not use His time to talk with the Gentiles then, before it all had happened. Jesus knew if He was to have a relationship with those "hungry for truth" Gentiles that came aknockin first to Philip, first He would have to die, and after that, His death would bring forth much fruit and that is what the Harvest of Pentecost deals with.
I smile that it was Philip that the Greeks came to. Apparently, Gentiles could tell that even Philip had a heart for them. Remember, God used Philip after Pentecost to reach that Ethiopian Eunuch on the chariot on the way back home reading Isaiah, about what had all taken place. There were all kinds of nationalities at the Feast of Pentecost in Acts 2. Please don't suggest that Pentecost has no gentile connections. That is simply such an embarrassing idea to have to address. Aren't we beyond that? We should bond with Philip. His experience, we call it a translation, is something that God will do because when there are people looking expectantly, with eagerness and trembling at His word, God will provide answers. But you must ALWAYS treat what God says as truth and if MEN teach something that is different than what God's Word says, consider such a man to be a liar. They are out there Saints and you will have no idea how much of what you think you know is actually a lie. I am hoping that in about 18 days that will be clear.
There will be mortals on earth when the Millennium begins. Apparently these mortals will need to respond in faith to God. I wonder if the experience of Philip and the Ethiopian will be repeated many times as mortals find their interest in God's Word and are confused and where we, as the incorruptible Church, get zapped over to help. I think we are going to be teachers, priests and kings. (I hope teachers in addition to priests and kings)
Blessings Saints. Soon we rise and shine and yield increase from the earth.

PART 3. I AM TREMBLING NOW
Isaiah 66:2
This is what the LORD says in Isaiah 66:2 - "This is the one I esteem: he who is humble and contrite in spirit, and trembles at my word."
Here is a section of Scripture that causes me to tremble.
Revelation 2:9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
10 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.
Here is my fear Saints! My theory is that the SECOND GREAT RESURRECTION SIGN OF 9/23/2017 started a countdown to the harvest of Pentecost from Leviticus 23:15 & 16. That count ends on 12/31/2017. Pentecost in Acts 2 tells us a little about the end. We will be gathered, in an upper room, made joyous, in one accord, speaking one universal language, lit up and shiny, and we will be a nation from all other nations.
This verse indicates that a part of the Church, at least, Smyrna, will have tribulation ten days.
Now listen, no one here has ever told me what this is referring to.
10 days before what I think will be the end of the Count is December 21. That is the day where WINTER BEGINS. Remember Saints, Song of Song 2 suggest we are raptured OUT OF WINTER.
Be ready Saints. We do not know what might happen in these last 10 days of 2017. May your hearts be ready to be strengthened after December 21 and not put in fear or discouragement.
Blessings Saints. Soon we rise and shine...but not until those verses are fulfilled!!!!!!!!
Rule 3: An argument from God about the date of the rapture would provide protection and a warning to those just prior to the Tribulation.

December 31 is also Sunday.
But then again, I have thought that the audience to whom Jesus was speaking were Jews in this verse.

As for the Sunday thing, yes that December 31, 2017 Sunday may be very important because it is the end of the Leviticus 23:15 & 16 count. I thought Jesus resurrected on a Sunday, and because of the count, from His resurrection, which occurred on First Fruits, then you count 7 Sabbaths and then the "morrow after" was Pentecost in Acts 2 and it occurred on a Sunday, the 50th day from the FIRST GREAT RESURRECTION SIGN of the resurrection of Jesus.
It is my contention from Scripture, here we are at the end of the Pentecost Season, it is winter, or will be next week, it is time for a Harvest, using the same verses in Leviticus 23:15 & 16, from the SECOND GREAT RESURRECTION SIGN OF 9/23/20178 you count seven sabbaths, then on the morrow after, you BEGIN a 50 day count, and when the count is completed (50 is a number that represents completion and blessing) is also a Sunday, the 8th day, a new day after the week, but it just happens that that last day of the count is December 31, 2017.
You had a question before and I don't know that I ever saw your question. Sorry. I just did now see it and I will answer your question as to "How could December 31 be related to Pentecost?" I stated it above. Sometimes it is easier to see graphically. This is probably the easiest way I can answer your question. THE END-3.pdf (334.61 KB)

PART 4. I AM TREMBLING NOWIsaiah 66:2 This is what the LORD says in Isaiah 66:2 - "This is the one I esteem: he who is humble and contrite in spirit, and trembles at my word."THE FINISH LINE CAUSES ME TO TREMBLE:
(WHAT IF I HAVE MISREPRESENTED GOD'S WORD? ?)Isaiah 44:1King James Version (KJV)
6 Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his redeemer the Lord of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.
My heart beats a little harder these days Saints. When I see that God referred to in that verse above, I will be ready for judgment.
I will be 66 years old by the time December 31 comes along. There is that 33 thing again that was found all over the eclipse. Naturally God would use a guy 66 at the rapture to oppress Unsealed with this information. And oppress is what I feel I have done here. I tried to give hope. The lack of acceptance of the ideas presented in the Scriptures I have presented, causes me, moments of great fear, and I have to go back to the Word, and settle in, and make sure in my little mind,
(a little mind that was trained by a God fearing mom and dad, both involved in Christian service full time all their lives, which mind (in Sunday School all through college) then went to Bible Study Fellowship for years and then to Bible School to get a degree in Bible. Which mind always felt that whether paid or not, by definition a Christian is someone involved in Christian service, which mind tried to figure out for a couple decades how to communicate Bible truth to his peers, putting Scripture to music, making it visual on powerpoint (I hate powerpoint now, just the memory of it causes my eyes to squint) a mind that finds great enjoyment about the discovery and application of Bible truth, a mind that hit a brick wall with respect to ideas and supposed "knowledge" that our culture is absolutely rock solid completely transfixed on and deceived by, and when I said back in October of 2015 that from then on, if the Bible conflicted with science or culture, I was going to side with the Bible, and simply allow every other to be a liar, and then God knew I was serious and he let me see things I had not seen before. That is the little mind that is producing this Thread) THAT,
I have used these verses correctly. I am satisfied. I have had to defend what I see as important to God in His word.
YET, studious Christians here at unsealed do not believe it at all. How is that? This is what causes me fear. Am I the one not getting it? Has Lucifer put some untruth in me and is using my "ardent" personality to make mincemeat of other ideas here that are actually correct ideas?
YES SAINTS! I FEAR THIS GREATLY. Because I know I am getting to the finish line. And what if all of this that God has given me is just "wood, hay and stubble!" Yes I fear. Your responses here have by no means alleviated the fear. The lack of acceptance causes me anxiety which I can only defeat by going back to the Word and once again, asking myself, did I get this right?
God wants us to know the finish line. God wants us to run the race like Paul but we cannot run a race appropriately unless we know where the finish line is. Now, PERHAPS, we know. Is this a message from God?
If so....“Saints, Now it is time to RUN LIKE THE WIND!”
BUT
If not...I predicted that my if the response from people whom I deemed to be able to see messages from God, people on unsealed, were to reject it entirely, I would be forced to reevaluate.
I am re evaluating.
I would love to see if Christians respond to this news. If they do respond, with Joy they will run appropriately to the end of the race and this just like Zamporini in the famous world record shattering last lap at the 36 Olympics.
I said this before: "Even if the date turns out to not be anything remarkable, it will be a good lesson on how to run a race. If we remain watchful, and running, perhaps there will be more confirmation later and before the date.
" Now...I don't know if it is a good lesson or not.
Jeff, at unsealed.org made the distinction in his latest published article between …
A. “Leaping over the threshold”
and B. "Stumbling over the threshold."
Made me think of that Olympic TV ad, where it shows the winter Olympic skier, going down the high jump and he loses control towards the end of the ramp. It's an ugly scene, but he did make it to the threshold. Hah! I don't want to be like that guy crossing the threshold into heaven. Jesus will say, "Well, at least you made it!" No, wait! Jesus will respond to my brilliant red face and say “Your face looks well done my good and faithful servant” and millions of angels will be laughing…and I always wanted to hear Jesus say, “Well done my good and faithful servant.” Who cares about "Your face looks..."No, I want to be running like Zamporini when I cross that threshold.
It will be more Glory for God if I enter with chest out, final spurt, the ribbon breaks. I feel now like Eric Liddel except I am not that fast, “I believe God made me for a purpose, but he also made me fast. And when I run I feel His pleasure.”
I fear my use of Scripture to be incorrect and that what I have posted here since November 24th will only make me entitled to some serious bema seat bonks.
However, I actually believe it. I love the Scripture I have used to support it. I love how this idea has unified all of the major prophetic themes about the rapture that I could think of. INCLUDING MAKING THE REVELATION 12 SIGN A SIGN!!!!!!!
If wrong I will refer Jesus to my numerous efforts to allow His word to permeate what I have produced. I will ask for forgiveness of coming to harmful conclusions, I will just tell Him, Lord, I thought there was enough there for me to run with all my strength to the finish line. At times I feel God’s pleasure. At times after reading comments, I fear.
Blessings Saints. You only need to deal with me for another 18 days. Then my ministry of teaching is over. I will be raptured, or I will be confirmed by God, not you guys, but by God, of being unworthy to convey Biblical truth. To protect His word, I will not do it again.
