What a
Coincidence
I was just looking at the calendar and
noticed something that is truly an incredible coincidence. Thanksgiving, a Gentile holiday, and
Hanukkah, a Jewish holiday, occur on the same day this year. This hasn’t happened since 1888 and
won’t happen again for another 79,043 years.
Remember how the angel gave Daniel the prophecy of the 70
weeks? A prophetic week is 7 years.
Everything came to a grinding halt
after 69 weeks when the Jews rejected the Messiah. God then takes a people for Himself from
the Gentiles. This period of time
is known as the Church Age. Then
the Church Age comes to an abrupt halt and the final week (7 years) of the
prophecy given to Daniel begins again as God turns His attention from the
Gentiles back to His chosen people, the Jews, once more. This transition point is both a Jewish
and a Gentile event, just like our upcoming holiday on the 28th of
this month. What a coincidence
indeed.
In Acts 15:13-18 James, the brother of Jesus, explains that
Israel was being
temporarily set aside while God focused on the Church, taking a people for
Himself from among the Gentiles.
After the full number of Gentiles are secured God will take His Church
away (in the Rapture) and then return to rebuild His Temple, restore Israel, and
give what is left of mankind one final chance to seek Him.
Thanksgiving is an American holiday in which we give
thanks to God for all of our blessings.
Unfortunately,
America hasn’t
been very thankful lately, especially towards God. In fact, we seem to be doing everything
imaginable to officially push God out of our nation. That seems mighty ungrateful to me
considering how generous God has been to us in the past. Now we want nothing to do with Him as we
become more and more sinful. “Do
whatever you want” seems to have become our national creed, or as the famous
Satanist Aleister Crowley put it: “Do what thou wilt.” The sins we are currently indulging in
are far too numerous to list here. America is long overdue for
judgment. As Billy Graham’s wife
once put it, “If God doesn’t punish
America soon He
is going to have to apologize to
Sodom and
Gomorrah.”
What makes this “coincidence” even more interesting is
that November 29th is the date in history that the UN voted to make
Israel a state,
back in 1947. A few months later,
on May 14, 1948,
Israel became a
nation. Could it possibly be that
God is going to end the Age of Grace and then turn His attention from the people
He is taking for Himself from the Gentiles, and turn His attention back to His
chosen people (the Jews) on the same day in history that the UN voted to make
Israel a
state? This really is some
coincidence, isn’t it?
I have always felt that the rapture will occur in
conjunction with the “sudden destruction” mentioned in the Bible. It would seem logical that God would
wait until the very last second to snatch away His bride so as to get every last
possible believer who would come to a saving faith in Christ right up to the
very last moment. I have also had a
growing feeling for a very long time that something big is about to happen very,
very soon. Thanksgiving is going to
be here very soon. Just a
coincidence?
And speaking of coincidences, if the rapture should
happen on this day all of the believing Church will be snatched away leaving a
shocked and panicking world staring up at the Comet Ison, which will just happen
to be at its closest point to the sun.
Ison could very well begin its departure from our solar system at the
very moment that Daniel’s 70th week begins, along with the beginning
of a 7 year period of tribulation for mankind. In the Bible, comets have been
associated with heavenly warnings of imminent disasters. Could Comet Ison be a warning of a 7
year period of tribulation? The
timing of Ison is just too perfect to be a coincidence.
Charles from 5 Doves had a vision in which he was shown
the rapture would be on a Thursday.
Well, guess what? The
28th just happens to be a Thursday. Another coincidence?
While I am on the subject, there is one more coincidence
I would like to point out. Forty
days prior to thanksgiving and Hanukkah this year the moon entered the mouth of
Pisces. Three days later it passed
out of Pisces. Below is a link to a
short video in which the moon is likened to Jonah. As you recall from the Bible, Jonah
rebelled against God, spent 3 days in the belly of the whale, came out of the
whale, and then gave Nineva a 40 day warning to repent or else sudden
destruction from God would befall them.
Jesus spoke of a wicked generation and how no sign would be given to them
except for the sign of Jonah. Take
a look at this video. It is short,
very well done, and does a much better job of explaining all of this than I can
do.

I have been warning my friends that the rapture may
happen this Thanksgiving, and most of them feel that I am the one who is the big
turkey here. Every time I bring it
up they want me to change the subject.
OK. Let’s see. I was just looking at the news this
morning and saw that a major canal in the
Netherlands has
just turned a very Biblical blood red.
None of the “experts” have any idea as to how it happened but are
absolutely convinced that it couldn’t possibly be in any way
prophetic.
Oh well, this is all probably just a long string of
mathematically impossible coincidence.
After all, thanksgiving and Hanukkah are going to fall on the same day
once again in another 79,043 years, except without the comet of course. In order for something to be prophetic
enough to convince today’s world that the end is near we would need something
like a plague of Biblical proportions of crazed democratically voting locust
attacking the first born of every household during a 3 day period of darkness in
which all of the bodies of water in the Islamic world would turn into HIV
tainted blood as huge hailstones mixed with fire and burning sulfur (brimstone)
fell from the sky on some really obscure Jewish feast day during which a gay
pride rally was also being held.
Then they would believe me.
