"Not One More Suicide": Chapter 3

Chapter Three -

The Secret “Second Appearing” is

the “ENOCHIAN DEPARTURE” of the “Bride”

The “Great and Glorious Appearing” is

the “ELIJIAN ASCENSION” of the “Woman”

The second “Enochian Departure” is when Jesus returns to rescue the “Man Child”, known also as the “Bride of Christ”, from being devoured by the “Great Red Dragon” at the moment of birth. This moment of birth, is the brides birth into Heaven, directly. The “Man Child” bride described by Paul in Hebrews 9:28, will be immediately caught up to God and to his throne. This “Secret” rapture is not to rescue the “Woman” of Revelation 12:6, nor the “Woman” of Revelation 12:14, but rather, only those awake to the reality of which my brother and I now write this book for your Berean consideration. These are they that Jesus calls the “Chosen”

The first “Departure”, that of the “Man Child” bride, as presented by Paul, in 2 Thessalonians 2:3 is to remove the “restrainer“ and the “bride”. The second “Departure” is likened to the rapture of Elijah, and the ascension of Jesus, neither of which were “Secret”. This coming of the Lord is to rescue the “Woman” of Revelation 12:6, and also the “Woman” of Revelation 12:14, both by translation into the wilderness, the land of Israel. These Jesus calls the “Called”. The “Woman” that was the first, the seed of Sarah down to Mary, Sarah being the wife of Abraham, she shall be last. She shall be ultimately rescued 1260 days after the “Woman” who was last, shall be taken into Heaven. We are part of the “Body of Christ” the seed of the “Woman” by faith in her Son. We are also seed of Abraham, by faith in the promises of God. We are all known as the “Family of God”. Each are to be rescued in their own “order”. Herein we see that the “first shall be last, and the last first”.

Matthew 20:16 King James Version (KJV)

16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen.

Hebrews 9:28 Amplified Bible, Classic Edition (AMPC)

28 Even so it is that Christ, having been offered to take upon Himself and bear as a burden the sins of many once and once for all, will appear a second time, not to carry any burden of sin nor to deal with sin, but to bring to full salvation those who are [eagerly, constantly, and patiently] waiting for and expecting Him (Revelation 12:10 ...now has come full salvation...).

Jesus was raptured into Heaven a second time, fourth day following his second coming, ten days before he would have his request of the Father honored, by the sending of the Holy Spirit, manifesting in fire, tongues and and great power.

Some five hundred men of Galilee, witnessed the ascension of Jesus, including the two men dressed in white linen, who also were witnesses to this event, saying:

Acts 1:11 King James Version (KJV)

11 ...Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.

To what end should, or must Jesus, be required to return again? What yet must he do once his “Man Child” bride is safely seated next to him on his throne, just as he had been seated next to his Father on his throne? These and other questions will all be answered by means of scripture. These answers will not be than answers provided in the false teachings of confused men or worse.

Revelation 12:5 KJV (Amplified) by S.P. Steinman

5 And she (the woman) brought forth a man child (the bride of Christ), who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child (not the unclean “Woman”, who had just given birth) was caught up unto God, and to his throne.

Why was the birth mother, the “Woman” left to remain on earth for a period of time? How long is that period of time to be? Answer: 7 days (Leviticus 12:2)

Leviticus 12:2 King James Version (KJV)

2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a woman have conceived seed, and born a man child: then she shall be unclean seven days; according to the days of the separation for her infirmity shall she be unclean.

Leviticus 15:19 King James Version (KJV)

19 And if a woman have an issue, and her issue in her flesh be blood, she shall be put apart seven days: and whosoever toucheth her shall be unclean until the even.

Oh you might be saying, that is part of the “Old Law”. Yes it is. The “Old Law” came down the mountain with Moses on Tammuz 17th, at which time he broke them in anger upon the “golden calf”. Jesus came to fulfill the broken “Letter of the Law” and give us “Grace” and the leading of the “Holy Spirit” that we may have the power to live unto the higher standard, the “Spirit of the Law”. With the ending of the “Age of Grace”, Moses the “Law Giver” and Elijah the “Prophet”, reinstate the “Old Law”. However, all ceremonial sacrifices will only be in memorial of the death of “The Lamb of God”, and not for atonement purposes.

Revelation 3:21 King James Version (KJV)

21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.

To sit on the throne of God has been the goal of Satan since the fall of he and his angelic rebels. However, that place of power and authority is reserved for another, the “Bride of Christ”, who will be the true “Queen of Heaven”. It will not be Semiramis, the consort of Satan.

The mode of transport by which the “Bride of Christ” will be taken into Heaven will be by translation. There are to be many raptures / departures, just as there have been many raptures in the past. Enoch, Elijah, and Jesus, who was twice raptured into Heaven are types and shadows of the future raptures. Paul, the apostle was taken alive or in the spirit, into Heaven for a short time, and later “John the Beloved” was also taken for a short time. John’s time in Heaven is symbolic of Joseph’s brothers coming to Egypt on their first journey to buy food. Upon that visit, Joseph spoke to them as Jesus spoke to five of the seven churches, with harsh words. He also kept his true identity concealed from them.

The second journey is symbolized by the rapture of Paul into Heaven, where he heard words to marvellous and holy to be repeated by a mere man. He was given gifts of the spirit and knowledge to teach to his fellow believers upon his return. He was given “The Mystery” of the rapture, and other wonderful words of understanding he was to proclaim. Paul, was of the tribe of Benjamin, the youngest of the twelve brothers, and the full brother of Joseph.

Before the events that are to follow, before future events enter onto history’s great stage, the two witnesses must return to earth, to begin their 1260 days of ministry. These must arrive exactly 3.5 days before the “Woman”, the birth mother, the members of the seven churches who remained on earth after the catching up of the “Man Child”, took place. The question is why were these not taken at the same time. The answer is binary to why the “Man Child” was taken. The “Man Child” was taken because he was pure in heart and mind, without sin in his life. How was this possible if all have sinned. The answer can again be found in scripture, namely within the Lord’s Prayer, 1 John 1:8-10, and John 13:8-10, as well as many other related passages, such as the command to be pure. Christ’s harsh messages to five of the seven churches was to “repent, or else”. Not all within the church will be in a state of worthiness, many unwilling to repent, and others are being taught not to repent ever, once one has receive salvation(the forgiveness of sins), lest you offend Jesus and deny his words, “It is finished”.

Satan continues to use scripture passages, out of their context. Some well meaning, ignorant pastors teach these twisted passages, to their own destruction and the destruction of those who receive them as truth. Paul warn of these men, some of whom are not men at all, but hybrids, or fallen angels are devils, who have been transformed to appear as apostles of Jesus, but are in fact ministers of Satan, teaching many differing theological doctrines, known as the doctrines of devils, i.e, the “little God” doctrine, as well as the doctrine of “Once Saved, Always Saved”. This was one of the many lies John Calvin received from his father the Devil, and countess others have like manner passed these lies on.

2 Peter 3:16 KJV (Amplified) by S.P. Steinman

16 As also (Paul) in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things (the things this book is being written about); in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.

So then, of these who remained behind, 50% were foolish, and remained foolish, even after the “Enochian Departure” took place, whereas 50% were wise. Jesus taught on this rapture, in Matthew 24:37-51. He also spoke of these foolish and wise ones in Matthew chapters 7, and 25.

It was to these wise who remained, he gave these words of comfort.

1 Thessalonians 4:14-18 KJV (Amplified) by S.P. Steinman

14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.

15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we (wise virgins) which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.

16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

These are the spirits and souls of the dead in Christ who are represented in type and shadow by the son of Enoch, Methuselah.

Though Methuselah died, his spirit and soul were immediately caught up to be with the Lord. Enoch, the father of Methuselah is symbolic of the physically alive “Bride of Christ”, whereas Methuselah is symbolic of those members of the “Bride of Christ” who have died, and gone on before. These who have died all return to receive the resurrected tabernacles, on the Feast of Tabernacles, the 14th/15th day of Tishri, 5778.

Revelation 6:12-17 KJV (Amplified) by S.P. Steinman

12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the (full) moon became as blood;

13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.

14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.

15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens (bunker systems) and in the rocks of the mountains;

16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us (so to hide us, as like a covering of darkness covers, that we might not be seen of Him), and (thus) hide us from the face of him (the Father) that sitteth on the throne, and (also) from the wrath of the Lamb (the “Great and Terrible Day of the Lord”):

Revelation 1:7 King James Version (KJV)

7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him (for they have proclaimed the words of Jesus given them to say in Matthew 23:39): and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.

Matthew 23:39 King James Version (KJV)

39 For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.

Isaiah 17:7 WYC (Amplified) by S.P. Steinman

7 In that day a man (Jacob, renamed by God Israel) shall be bowed to his maker (who is Jesus the Messiah), and his eyes shall behold to the Holy (King of kings, and Lord of lords) of Israel.

Revelation 6:12-17 KJV (Amplified) by S.P. S

17 For the great day of his wrath (the wrath of the Lamb) is come; and who shall be able to stand?

The wise virgins within the five remaining churches shall be able to stand, as the dead in Christ will also stand up in their graves, to be caught up together to meet the Lord and his bride in the air.

1 Thessalonians 5:9 King James Version (KJV)

9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath (the wrath of the Lamb, Revelation 6:16), but to obtain salvation (rescue) by our Lord Jesus Christ,

When will this be, and where can it be proven in scripture? John Wycliffe clearly reveals the answer, whereas in other translations it is presumed to be understood, since a husband and wife are seen as one and the same person, the two having become one flesh.

Matthew 25:1 Wycliffe Bible (WYC)

1 Then the kingdom of heavens shall be like to ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went out to meet the husband and the wife;

When, pray tell, did the “betrothed wife” depart, that she might return again with her bridegroom, to give entry into the wedding feast of the five wise virgins, the wedding guests of Revelation 19:9?

Revelation 19:9 King James Version (KJV)

9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.

1 Thessalonians 4:15-18 KJV (Amplified) by S.P. Steinman

15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.

16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the (“Last”) trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

Colossians 3:4 King James Version (KJV)

4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory (seated upon his throne, according to Revelation 3:21).

At this time, the five virgins left behind, those whom Jesus knows, are taken up in their bodies made immortal and incorruptible. These will all be caught up to meet the Lord in the air. This is the “Elijian Rapture”. These will then be translated into the wilderness land of Israel, along with the “Woman” who will be given two wings of a great eagle, just as she had been rescued in another time in the past.

Exodus 19:4 King James Version (KJV)

4 Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles' wings, and brought you unto myself.

These all must appear with Jesus, to stand before the LORD on Sukkot, the Feast of Tabernacles.

Jeremiah 49:22 KJV (Amplified) by S.P. Steinman

22 Behold, he (the returning Lord Jesus) shall come up and fly as the eagle (Revelation 12:14), and spread his wings over Bozrah: and at that day shall the heart of the mighty men of Edom (Esau) be as the heart of a woman in her pangs (for the is the day the sudden destruction cometh, as a woman in travail).

1 Thessalonians 5:3 King James Version (KJV)

3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.

Isaiah 63:1-6 KJV (Amplified) by S.P. Steinman

1 Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments (dyed in blood) from Bozrah? this that is glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save.

2 Wherefore art thou red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the winefat?

3 I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the people there was none with me: for I will tread them in mine anger, and trample them in my fury; and their blood shall be sprinkled upon my garments, and I will stain all my raiment.

Revelation 14:14-20 KJV (Amplified) by S.P. Steinman

14 And I looked, and behold a white cloud (Acts 1:11), and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.

15 And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest (during the month of the fall former rain) of the earth is ripe.

Hosea 6:11 King James Version (KJV)

11 Also, O Judah, he hath set an harvest for thee, when I returned the captivity of my people (Ezekiel 39:25-29 Wycliffe Bible translation).

Hosea 6:1-3 KJV (Amplified) by S.P. S.

1 Come, and let us return unto the Lord: for he hath torn (divided us), and he will heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up (unite us again as one nation, as one rod in his hand).

2 After two (millennial) days (Matthew 24:29) will he revive us (back, as his people): in the third (millennial) day he will raise us up (Daniel 12:1-3), and we shall live in his sight.

Ezekiel 39:28-29 King James Version

28 Then shall they know that I am the Lord their God, which caused them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them unto their own land, and have left none of them any more there (Where? A: In the land of their enemies).

Joel 2:20-21 King James Version

20 But I will remove far off from you the northern army, and will drive him into a land barren and desolate, with his face toward the east sea, and his hinder part toward the utmost sea, and his stink shall come up, and his ill savour shall come up, because he hath done great things (Ezekiel 38 & 39).

21 Fear not, O land; be glad and rejoice: for the Lord will do great things.

Do you really think that Jesus would say to his people “fear not”, if he were about to destroy two thirds of them out of their tribal lands? No! They have not yet been reseeded into their tribal lands. They occupy only a tiny portion of their promised lands.

29 Neither will I hide my face any more from them (they shall live in my sight): for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord God.

Hosea 6:1-3 KJV (Amp) by S.P. S. continued...

3 Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the Lord: his going forth is prepared as the morning (sunrise); and he shall come unto us as the rain, (first) as the (spring, during the week of Passover, on the 10th day of Nisan, 3790) latter and (again as the fall, during the Feast of Tabernacles, on the 14th/15th of Tishri, 5778, Sukkot/Tabernacles, when the) former rain (falls) unto the earth.

Revelation 14:14-20 KJV (Amp) by S.P. S. continued...

16 And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped.

17 And another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle.

18 And another angel came out from the altar, which had power over fire; and cried with a loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle, saying, Thrust in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for her grapes are fully ripe.

19 And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.

20 And the winepress was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.

Isaiah 63:1-6 KJV (Amplified) by S.P. Steinman continued...

4 For the day of vengeance is in mine heart, and the year of my redeemed is come.

5 And I looked, and there was none to help; and I wondered that there was none to uphold: therefore mine own arm brought salvation unto me; and my fury, it upheld me.

6 And I will tread down the (rebellious) people in mine anger, and make them drunk in my fury, and I will bring down their strength to the earth.

Amos 1:12 King James Version (KJV)

12 But I will send a fire upon Teman, which shall devour the palaces of Bozrah.

Jeremiah 49:13 King James Version (KJV)

13 For I have sworn by myself, saith the Lord, that Bozrah shall become a desolation, a reproach, a waste, and a curse; and all the cities thereof shall be perpetual wastes.

There remain yet more raptures yet future. The 144,000 must at some point in time, leave the and return to Heaven, most likely after the first five months of tribulation as come to their end. These will be transported back to Heaven by means of translation.

Following their 1260 day ministry, and 3.5 days lying dead in some street of Jerusalem, the two witnesses along with the tribulation martyrs will also be raptured into Heaven. The only question that remains, is when will or if the rescued Jewish remnant might be taken into Heaven, during which time the Fourth Temple is being constructed? There remains some short time before the battle of Armageddon is to be fought. It seems these are part of those riding back to earth on white horses, as Jesus and his follower return at the Battle of Armageddon.

Revelation 16 KJV (Amplified) by S.P. Steinman ben Judah

1 And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.

2 And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image (the human “temple”, made in the “image” of God).

3 And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea.

4 And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became blood.

5 And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus.

Understand that the “counterfeit messiah” will be indwelled by, given a “spirit” which “once was”, “is not”, “yet is”. Jesus said of his temple, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up again”. Likewise, Jesus will destroy / slay the “son of perdition” (2 Thessalonians 2:8), who’s temple will rise again on the third day (Revelation 13:3-5), thereby deceiving men (2 Thessalonians 2:9-11), that he be “The Messiah”.

Revelation 13:15 Wycliffe Bible (Amp) by S.P. Steinman

15 And it was given to him, that he should give [a] spirit to the image (the human body/temple) of the beast, and that the image (the human body/temple) of the beast speak. And he (Pope Francis) shall make, that whoever honour not the image of the beast (Barack Obama), be slain.

On the 10th anniversary of 9-11, then President Barack Obama, soon to be the risen “counterfeit messiah”, proclaimed himself to be God, as he quoted Psalm 46, reference to John 2:20.

John 2:20-21 KJV (Amplified) by S.P. Steinman

20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?

21 But he spake of the temple of his body (made in the image of God).

6 For they (all the unrighteous) have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink (a forbidden practice); for they are worthy (to receive this judgment).

7 And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments.

8 And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire.

9 And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.

10 And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain,

11 And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds.

12 And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.

13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.

14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of (Armageddon) that great day of God Almighty.

15 Behold (this is a warning to all that are drunken or asleep), I come as a thief. Blessed is he that (awakes out of sleep, so that he might be among those who) watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.

16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.

17 And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done (which is binary to “It is finished”).

18 And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.

19 And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.

20 And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.

21 And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.

Acts 2:20 is a description of what that day will be like, when Jesus appears for all to see him. This event takes place four days after the rapture of the “Man Child”. The “Woman” of Revelation 12:6 is raptured up to meet the Lord in the clouds. This is the fulfillment of the prophecy of the two witnesses, given at the time of the ascension of Jesus.

Acts 2:20 Darby Translation (Amp) by S.P. Steinman

20 the sun shall be changed to darkness and the moon to blood, before the great and gloriously appearing day of [the] Lord come (in his glory).

The “Woman” seen in Revelation 12:14 is Mary, the birthmother of Jesus. Jesus, was the first “Man Child” born to the “Woman” two thousand years ago. He was the first of the two who are called “Man Child” in this chapter. The Hebrew “Woman” birthmother of the “Man Child” Jesus, she shall be given the two wings of a great eagle, just as in times past”, when God brought her to himself in the days of Moses. Both these “Women” and both of whom are called the “Man Child” will all depart together into the wilderness, into the land of Israel, more specifically the city of Jerusalem.

Why? The “Why” requires further understanding as to the “Age of Grace”. Mankind as gone through several ages of time, some call dispensations. The first “age” began with Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, followed by the age after they were removed from the garden. This was followed by the age which began after the “Great Flood” during the days of Noah. This extended to the time of Abraham, unto the captivity in the land of Egypt. It was then, Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt to Mount Sinai. It was at this mountain, the “First Trump” sounded, as God himself spoke in the hearing of all mankind his “Ten Commandments”. These were then “Written in Stone”, never to be repealed, not a single one. The tablets of stone were broken, symbolic that God’s chosen would not abide them. This reality created the need for God to provide closure to the age, ruled by the Laws given to Moses, and fulfill their requirements once and for all, by the blood of the Lamb of God, Jesus Christ his Son. It was at the moment of the Messiah’s death, the Temple of God, was left a desolation, as the moment the “Spirit of God” departed, and entered into the followers of Jesus. These became the “Temple of God” on earth. These became sacrifices unto God, living sacrifices who bring forth praise and worship unto the Lord God Almighty, who is and was, and is to come. Amen.

This wonderful age, the “Age of Grace”, though it has also been a time of great tribulation, is soon to come to a glorious end, twelve hours after the Moses and Elijah return to earth. It will be at that time, Jesus will send for his two servants to prepare the Jews for the Passover meal. This event will take place on the binary day, to that of sunset 13th/14th day of Nisan / the 13th/14th day of Tishri. This event will usher in the next dispensation, ruled under the laws of God. Thus the “Law of Moses” will be reinstated, whereby Jesus and all Israelite males are required to stand before the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY, in Jerusalem, on Sukkot, the Feast of Tabernacles.

We see the type and shadow of this event, when Moses went up the mountain a second and third time, first to plead with God to forgive his people, thereafter to receive again the Tablets of Stone. The second set of tablets, is known as the “Second Law”. This event is celebrated on Yom Kippur, considered to be the second Shavuot / Pentecost. The return of the two witnesses will bring as second “age of law” when the world will again be ruled by the laws given to Moses. After this period of time, an extended time of testing, and martyrdom, for all those blessed ones who will have followed the Lord in faith. The final age will come when Jesus sets up his millennial kingdom, and these blessed martyrs will rule with him on earth for a thousand years. The time between the breaking of the first set of tablets and the receiving of the second set of tablets is symbolic of the “Age of Grace” we are presently living in today.

Revelation 14:13 King James Version (KJV)

13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.

The blessed martyrs of Revelation 14:13 are seen standing on the sea of glass in Revelation 15:2-4. This brings us to the third rapture, when the “Two Witnesses”, Moses and Elijah are called up into Heaven by the voice of Jesus. This event very closely resembles the ascension of Jesus, which was most likely viewed by those same two witnesses, while standing with the men of Galilee, when Jesus ascended the final time. The question is, did he ascend alone?

Though we do not see them, we know who they are, and from whence they came, and to the place they abide to this day. Who are these people that we know so much about, and where do we learn these things about them? These are those “righteous” who died before Jesus died. The last of them was crucified beside Jesus, who at the time of his resurrection from the dead, rose with Jesus. We know this person as the thief on the cross, the one who received Jesus as his personal Saviour and Lord, by asking Jesus to remember him, when he entered his kingdom.

Matthew 27:52-53 KJV (Amplified) by S.P. Steinman

52 And the graves were opened (when were they opened?); and many bodies of the saints which slept arose (out of those open graves),

53 And (these) came (forth) out of the graves after his resurrection (out of Abraham’s bosom, known also as Paradise)...

When?

...after his resurrection (not at the time of his death), and (the who had been held captive in the belly of the earth) went into the holy city (old Jerusalem), and appeared unto many.

Those saints of old, who came out of their graves at that moment, after the moment Jesus had come forth, these went into Jerusalem, for the next 40 days, where they appeared to many. These also ascended with Jesus into Heaven, at his ascension. In like manner, the saints martyred for the faith and their unwillingness to take the “mark of the beast” will also be risen up, and raptured into Heaven with Moses and ElIjah, the moment Jesus calls them forth, saying, “Come up hither”. These will hear his voice and immediately obey, and come forth, rising into Heaven in their newly immortalized and incorruptible bodies. This event takes place chronologically before the seventh trumpet has been sounded and the seven bowls of wrath are pour out on the desolate, disproving the “Post-Tribulationist” theory, which also teaches that the “Last Trump” is also the “Seventh Trumpet”, instead of simply being the final trumpet of wrath.

In Revelation 15:2-4, we see the martyred dead mentioned in Revelation 14:13, standing and singing on the sea of glass, which is before the Temple of God. This is the “Great Assembly”, which takes place just prior to the return of Jesus and his saints to the Mount of Olives. This return of Jesus is required to rescue the Israelite “Remnant”, before the bowls of wrath are poured out. The Israelite “Remnant” are not subject to the wrath that is about to be poured out upon the wicked. Therefore, scripture reveals their rescue, by way of a great valley, through which they run to Jesus. The great valley, formed by a great earthquake, destroys the Third Temple and the city of Jerusalem, after which Jesus himself will rebuild the temple, which is the Fourth Temple, much larger and more splendid then the First Temple built by Solomon.

Scripture also gives us to see the death and resurrection of a “counterfeit messiah”, though he will never ascend into Heaven. The only time Satan will sit on a throne, in the Third Temple of God will be when he vicariously sits there, after his conquest of Jerusalem, as seen in Zechariah 14:1-2. To sit in the Temple of God has been Satan’s highest aspiration. He is quoted in scripture, stating emphatically that he will be as God. Some misguided pastors claim this to be their reality today. They state equally emphatically, that they are “little Gods” right now. Others claim, you can live like the Devil, but still be a son of God.

In Revelation 6:1-3 we see the covenant of death in the hand of the rider on the white horse. This covenant, seen as the bow in the hand, is in fact a reference to the rainbow, the covenant made by God after the “Great Flood”. The covenant to be confirmed is known as the Oslo Accord, which Antichrist will indeed confirm with the many, the United Nations, for seven years (Isaiah 28:15-18). The terms of this agreement will be included as part of the peace agreement sign, at the end of the Psalm 83 war. This is a trick of the enemy, for he will shortly thereafter break the covenant and attack Israel, in the first of two, Gog Magog wars. The aftermath of the Psalm 83 war brings destruction upon the nations bordering Israel. After this war, the “Covenant of Death” will be “confirmed” again, for seven years. This will allow for the rebuilding of the Third Temple, or a the very least, the rebuilding of the alter, and the return of the Ark of the Covenant, binary to its return in the days of King David. Once again the Jews, do the unthinkable, kindly make a deal with death and hell, returning the outer court yard for the Mosque of Omar to remain standing, or for its rebuilding. This event is binary to that which was done, immediately following the “Six Day War”. This is done to fulfill the remaining prophetic passages of scripture. This seven year covenant will be broken in the midst of the seven years, at the 3.5 year mark. Antichrist and his newly raised up forces will again attack the city of Jerusalem. These events fulfill several aspects of scripture, often not correctly understood as to their chronological order.
