DOES GEN. 7:11, NOAH'S FLOOD POINT TO SUDDEN
DESTRUCTION/RAPTURE ON 11/11/11?
This post, and my next post, will attempt to see if there are any more BIBLICAL dates left in 2011 for the possible Sudden Destruction/ Rapture. Most watchers have a tendency to concentrate on the Feast Days for the main Watch Days for the time of the Rapture. But there are other days that could annually be considered Watch Days, including Ascension Day and the 9th of Av. With the 1260-day Great Tribulation, with Obama's recovering from the mortal head wound, scheduled to start on Apr. 11, 2012, we have every reason to expect the Rapture to occur in the very near future. For more information as to why 2011 seems to be a better possibility, rather than early 2012, read my last post, which is linked below.

I want to emphasize that there will be NO predictions, no personal prophecies, nor any personal claims as to when the Rapture is going to take place. The Rapture/Sudden Destruction may take place on some unknown day that is not tied into Scripture, or anybody's calculations. However, with the Great Tribulation scheduled to begin in less than 6 months, any BIBLICAL dates that have Rapture implications should be looked at very closely.
In my last post, I suggested that there are at least two BIBLICAL dates remaining in 2011, which amazingly are 40 days apart. In my next post, we will look at the 2nd of these two BIBLICAL dates, which is Dec. 20--21, 2011, or the 24th of Kislev, on the Jewish calendar. EXACTLY 40 DAYS BEFORE THE BIBLICAL DATE OF THE 24TH OF KISLEV IS 11/11/11. I believe that 11/11/11 may also be a Biblical date, and this post is an attempt to show you why.
There has been a multitude of good posts recently pointing towards this much-publicized, and much-anticipated date of 11/11/11. There certainly has been enough information discovered and written about, concerning this date of 11/11/11, which is filled with occultic sybolism and Satanic implications. I have chosen not to review that information in this post. However, you can read a lot of very good posts, written in the past couple of weeks, about this rapidly-approaching date, whose numbers are filled with all sorts of New World Order and Satanic possibilities, on www.fivedoves.com . Below are the very recent links, written by Gerry Almond, B.G. Ellis, and Luis Vega, in that order, that are all excellent sources that I highly recommend, all pointing the very real possibilities of a MAJOR event, or events, happening on 11/11/11.

The Biblical meaning of the number ELEVEN is judgment and disorder. In the occult, the number ELEVEN is an evil number, though I am not sure of the exact occultic meaning. The twin towers that were destroyed on 9/11/01 were shaped like an ELEVEN. They were destroyed on an ELEVEN DATE. The 9.0 Japan mega-earthquake, tsunami, and ongoing nuclear cataclsym was on 3/11/11, another ELEVEN date. The 1260-day Great Tribulation will begin on 4/11/12, another ELEVEN date. There are other examples, but these may be the most significant, at least so far. So, the date of ELEVEN ELEVEN ELEVEN is filled with BIBLICAL AND OCCULTIC POSSIBILITIES. If you will read the three links above, you will be even more amazed at the magnitude of the enormous potential for something extremely significant to possibly happen on 11/11/11.
The purpose of this post today is to show you that 11/11/11 MAY be, not just a very occultic day for the Sudden Destruction, but also a very BIBLICAL date for the Sudden Destruction, and, therefore, possibly the Rapture also. See my website for many Scriptural reasons as to why the Rapture and Sudden Destruction are simultaneous events. Read the post, "The Rapture and Simultaneous Sudden Destruction" at:
www.TheFinal7YearsAreHereNow.com
To all Biblical watchers who are reading this, there are two VERY definitive BIBLICAL dates left in 2011, that have VERY obvious Sudden Destruction implications written all over them. The first of these days of the year is found in Genesis 7:11. Please keep in mind the words of warning, given by Jesus, in Luke 17:26, "as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it also be in the days of the Son of man (Jesus)." We know there are many parallels to be made with Noah's time with the time of the 2nd Coming of Christ, in which we currently live.
Gerry Almond has brought out one of these amazing parallels with an astounding discovery. Noah was given 120 years to build the Ark. Astoundingly, it is EXACTLY 120 Prophetic years of 360 days each to the beginning of Israel, the establishment of the 1st Zionist Congress, in 1897, to the 1st day of the Millennial Reign of Jesus, on Hanukkah Eve, Dec. 7, 2015 (Feast of Atonement, Sept. 23, 2015, plus the extra 75 days in the Book of Daniel).
This AMAZING PARALLEL with the days of Noah, alone should tell us to search the story of Noah for more clues as to the POSSIBLE timing of the the Sudden Destruction at the time of the Rapture. There are numerous parallels with the days of Noah, with our perilous days of today. One of those parallels MAY be the timing of the Sudden Destruction, and, by implication, the timing of the Rapture.
The Sudden Destruction in the days of Noah was the Great Flood. We cannot be sure of the exact event which may parallel the Great Flood in our day. Some would say it will be the Great Earthquake of the 6th Seal Judgment, which is felt worldwide and will cause cataclysmic damage. Other watchers believe it is destruction caused by Elenin, or Planet X (Nibiru). My best Scriptural guess is the opening of the 2nd Seal Judgment. The 1st Seal Judgment, with the white horse rider, with the Antichrist, Obama, is well underway today. The 2nd Seal should be next.
To those who believe that Seals 2 thru 5 have been already opened, and the Great Earthquake is next, I must ask you where is the fulfillment of the "GREAT SWORD", that destroys one-fourth of the earth's population? The only weapon available, that is capable of this type of catastrophic devastation is NUCLEAR WEAPONS. This has to be the GREAT SWORD, which has not yet been unleashed, . Seal judgments 3, 4, and 5 are DIRECT results of the nuclear destruction that will be wrought upon the earth. The Sudden Destruction, of Rev. 6 and 1st Thess. 5 is the game-changing event that will rapidly bring on the NEW WORLD ORDER, and the one-world dictator, who will be Barack Hussein Obama. This unparalled, cataclysmic event, may be only days or weeks away.
Concerning the opening of the 2nd Seal, Rev. 6:4 says, "And there went out another horse that was RED: and POWER was given to him that sat thereon TO TAKE PEACE FROM THE EARTH, AND THAT THEY SHOULD KILL ONE ANOTHER, AND THERE WAS GIVEN UNTO HIM A GREAT SWORD."
Does Genesis 7:11 give us the clue we are looking for, as to the timing of this Sudden Destruction in our time? It gives us the day of the year of the Sudden Destruction of the Great Flood. Gen. 7:11 says, "In the 600th year of Noah's life, IN THE SECOND MONTH, THE SEVENTEENTH DAY OF THE MONTH, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened."
Could the entering of the Ark of Safety to ESCAPE THE SUDDEN DESTRUCTION OF THE FLOOD, represent our entering into the Ark of Safety, via the Rapture, to ESCAPE THE SUDDEN DESTRUCTION, which is about to strike this earth??? If so, we should take a good look at what day of the year represents the 17th day of the 2nd month. With the 120-year comparison of Noah's timeline to our end-times timeline being fulfilled, RIGHT TO THE VERY DAY, in 2015, how can we take this possibility lightly? How can we not seriously consider the 17th day of the 2nd Jewish month, on the civil calendar?
I would like to mention that the 17th day of the 2nd Jewish month, on the civil calendar, is probably Jim Bramlett's favorite WATCH day every year. Jim and I shared many telephone conversations back in the 1990's, and also shared a couple of banquet meals together at the God's News Behind the News annual International Bible Prophecy Conference. I have attended several dozen Bible Prophecy Conferences, but their conference is always the best.
There are some who would say this Noah day should be calculated from the Jewish religious calendar in the Spring. The majority of watchers calculate this day in the Fall, on the civil calendar. The only real conclusive point that needs to be brought up is that there was NO religious calendar in the days of Noah. This religious calendar that starts each Spring was instituted by God, in the days of Abraham, AFTER NOAH'S DAYS. So, it only makes sense to calculate using the Jewish civil calendar, which starts in the Fall.
Now if you look on the 2011 Jewish calendar it will say that the 17th day of Chesvan, the eighth month on the Spring religious calendar, is on Nov. 14th. This is a computerized calendar, which is an attempt by the Jews, in the previous year, to arrive at the correct Jewish calendar for the next year, based on new moons and other factors. If this calendar is correct in God's eyes, then Nov. 14, 2011, is the WATCH DAY that we all should be considering this year.
I looked up the Hebrew meaning of the word "month", in Gen. 7:11, and it literally means "new moon". So, when is the "new moon", in the 2nd month of the Jewish civil calendar this year? I checked 12 different sources. One source said Oct. 29th, two sources said Oct. 28th, and NINE DIFFERENT SOURCES SAID THE NEW MOON WAS ON OCT. 26TH.
I am certainly no expert on calendars, and how they are calculated, or Jewish months, and how they are calculated. Perhaps the discrepancy is whether the "new moon" is the "no moon" day, or whether it is the "first sliver" day. I have always been taught that the "new moon" day, was the "no moon" day. Regardless, if we consider the vast majority opinion, Oct. 26th was the "new moon" day, for the 2nd Jewish month, on the civil calendar for this year.
If Oct. 26, 2011, is indeed the "2nd new moon day", as most sources tell us, this would make ELEVEN ELEVEN ELEVEN THE 17TH DAY OF THE 2ND MONTH. THIS MAKES ELEVEN ELEVEN ELEVEN THE POTENTIAL DAY OF SUDDEN DESTRUCTION, JUST LIKE IT WAS IN THE DAYS OF NOAH. BECAUSE THE SUDDEN DESTRUCTION AND THE RAPTURE ARE THE SAME DAY, THIS MAKES ELEVEN ELEVEN ELEVEN THE POTENTIAL DAY OF THE RAPTURE!!!
Not only is the 17th day of the 2nd month the day that the Great Flood, in Noah's time, started, there is a good chance that this is the same day that Noah entered the Ark. I have read the Noah story several times recently, and also several commentaries on it. Some say that Noah entered the Ark 7 days before, on the 10th day of the 2nd month. Others say that Noah and his family entered the Ark of Safety on the 17th day of the 2nd month, the very same day that the Great Flood began. I lean towards this latter interpretation.
If "The day that Noah entered the Ark of Safety to Escape the Sudden Destruction" typifies the "The day the Bride enters the Ark of Safety, via the Rapture, to Escape the Sudden Destruction, then the 17th day (11/11/11?), should be considered a very serious watch day.
However, it rained forty days and forty nights upon the earth. Then what happened? We read about it in Gen. 7:17, where it says, "And the flood was FORTY DAYS upon the earth; and the waters increased, AND BARE UP THE ARK, AND IT WAS LIFT UP ABOVE THE EARTH." COULD THE TIME THE ARK OF SAFETY WAS LIFTED UP ABOVE THE EARTH TYPIFY THE RAPTURE OF THE BRIDE, WHEN THE CHOSEN FEW ARE LIFTED UP OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH?
If this is the case, then we could look to the possible Rapture of the Bride, FORTY DAYS after 11/11/11, which would be my other suggested date of 12/20--21/11, Hanukkah Eve, the 24th day of Chesvan. This date has very strong World War III days written all over it. Or, could the Rapture, and the start of World War III, take place on 11/11/11, which could be a 40-day warning to the rest of the world of the cataclysmic destruction of World War III, Ezekiel 38--39, on possibly 12/20--21/11?
It is my contention that the POTENTIAL for the Rapture/Sudden Destruction, or something of such magnitude to constitute a 40-day warning, COULD take place on 11/11/11 (or from 11/11 to 11/14). Based on the entire content of this post, all watchers should consider the time from 11/11/11 to 11/14/11 to be a very serious WATCH period, because it is BIBLICAL. The date of 12/20--21/11, is also very Biblical, but I will get into that in a future post. I will remind you, once again, that the dates of 11/11/11 and 12/20--21/11 are EXACTLY 40 DAYS apart.
In my next post, I will show you how Noah's time line could lead us directly to APRIL 11, 2012, THE DAY THAT WE SHOULD EXPECT OBAMA TO RECOVER FROM THE MORTAL HEAD WOUND TO BEGIN HIS 1260-DAY REIGN, PER REVELATION 13, THE START OF THE GREAT TRIBULATION.
Once again, I feel that it is important that I issue this disclaimer. Nothing may happen on 11/11/11 of any significance. Nothing may happen on 12/20--21/11 of any significance. Jesus' Return, and the Day of Sudden Destruction MAY take place on a day that we cannot tie in to anything Biblical, a day when we think not. However, there are very, very legitimate BIBLICAL reasons to consider 11/11/11 thru 11/14/11, and 12/20--21/11 to be considered very serious Watch days.
Please consider this email to be a VERY SERIOUS WARNING MESSAGE for each and every one of us to get our hearts right before it is too late. Get off the fence. JESUS TOLD US TO SEPARATE OURSELVES FROM THE WORLD, AND THEN HE WOULD RECEIVE US UNTO HIMSELF. JESUS SAID THAT WITHOUT HOLINESS NO MAN WILL SEE THE LORD.
I often end my posts with these three verses, which I consider the most important verses in the Word of God, for the end-times believers. Let these words of Jesus penetrate deeply into your heart, as this could be your last warning. Jesus warns the end-times Christian in Luke 21:34--36,
"Take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting (partying) , and drunkenness, AND CARES OF THIS LIFE, and so THAT DAY come upon you unawares (unexpectedly). For as a snare (TRAP) shall it come upon ALL THEM WHO DWELL ON THE FACE OF THE WHOLE EARTH. WATCH ye therefore, and pray always, that you MAY BE ACCOUNTED WORTHY TO ESCAPE ALL these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man (Jesus)."
Make no mistake about it, people, there is a TRAP being set by the New World Order elite, under the power of Satan. It is the trap of SUDDEN DESTRUCTION of 1st Thess. 5:3. It is the TRAP OF SUDDEN DESTRUCTION that is about to lead the world into the New World Order of a one-world government, headed up by a one-world dictator (has anyone noticed the rapidly-increasing dictatorial tendecies of the extremely narcissitic Obama lately?) Most likely, it is a day, filled with occultic symbolism (11/11/11?).
Jesus tells us in these verses, there is AN ESCAPE FROM ALL, which is the Rapture. PLEASE, PLEASE do not take lightly the words of our Lord when He says PRAY THAT YOU BE FOUND WORTH TO ESCAPE ALL. This is not about salvation. It is about a VERY SPECIAL REWARD for those whom our Lord finds worthy. It starts with holiness, and separation from the world.
There is a very strong probability that all backslidden, lukewarm, worldy, non-watching, and compromising Christians will miss this first Rapture. Please do not take this warning lightly. Prepare your hearts for the most stunning, and awe-inspiring event of the past 2000 years. Jesus said we COULD KNOW WHEN IT WAS NEAR, EVEN AT THE DOOR. THE RAPTURE AND SUDDEN DESTRUCTION ARE NOW AT THE DOOR. ARE YOU READY???
Maranatha!
