Hi:

>  the rapture of the Bride is pre-trib.

I used to think the Rapture was Pre-Trib, but now that we are nearing Mid-Trib, I have to be realistic.

I'm excited. I think I just found the last piece of the puzzle.

I had been subtracting the 2300 days of Dan 8:13,14 from the Day of God's Wrath, the Feast of Trumpets, Sept 14, 2015. I should have subtracted it from NISAN 1, 5776, Sat. Apr. 9, 2016, the Second Advent.

HERE IS THE CLUE

Eze 45:18 says, "Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the first month, in the first day of the month (i.e., Nisan 1), thou shalt take a young bullock without blemish, and cleanse the sanctuary".

That ties in with Dan 8:13,14. It says, "Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot? 14  And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.

According to my new figures, which I just posted on Pro and Con 1699, the Tribulation started Dec 22, 2009, the Rapture should take place May 5, 2013, Mid-Trib will be May 15, when Satan and the fallen angels are kicked out of Heaven after accusing us day and night from the day of our Rapture until he is kicked out of Heaven, i.e., from May 5 to June 4, 2013.

Rev_12:10-12 says, "And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. 11  And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. 12  Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time."

That short time would be the shortened Great Tribulation.

I also think Christ has been sending the Holy Fire on the Saturday before the Eastern Orthodox Easter as a sign of when he would come for us on the Ascension Day that falls on the Orthodox Easter Sunday. Ascension Day won't fall on Sunday again until 2024.

Rev 1:9-11 shows that the Rapture will be on Sunday, the Lord's Day. The second Rapture will fall on the great and terrible Day of the Lord. I think it will fall on Monday.

There are more details on my Pro and Con 1699.

You said something that is really the key. You said it is the revelation from the Holy Spirit that the rapture of the Bride is pre-trib.

For 56 years I went to a church that believed in pre-trib but I believed in post, mainly because my father believed that way and "all" the scriptures I read spoke the same to me. One day in my office it dawned on me I had never asked the Lord. So I asked Him. He didn't make me wait. He spoke so clearly pre-trib. I was flabbergasted. I opened the Bible and scripture after scripture was opened to a heart that really wanted to know. I have literally never been the same since.

The desire to be the Bride of Christ comes with a price. Complete and utter surrender and death to everything that I thought was important. Death to self doesn't come easy, but when you realize the prize and that we might be considered worthy to stand before Him, the lover of our soul, and escape that which is coming upon the earth...then everything is put into perspective.

So RC....spend the time to ask. He is utterly faithful to answer the children He so loves.

Blessings on you both.
