The 3rd Day of Israel Will Be The Rapture

Nobody today questions that mankind has come to the end of his days as immorality and strife are the gathering dark clouds of doom overhead. The Book of Revelation depicts the events of mankind's final judgment.

But when will all of this calamity begin? Consider that the Antichrist will replicated the events surrounding Jesus Christ's death and resurrection in order to deceive the whole world. The number 3 is a prominent number in biblical prophesy and so we must look to it for guidance.

Consider that when Jesus Christ died on the cross he was placed in a tomb for 3 days. After 3 days Jesus Christ rose from the dead. When Israel became a nation in 1948 Jesus Christ was again placed in a tomb, figuratively speaking, for the Jewish people still do not believe in Jesus Christ as the true messiah.

Today the Nation Israel is like a graveyard haunted by demon possessed people exhibiting violence just like in all the stories in the New Testament where demon possessed people haunted graveyards that Jesus Christ ultimately exorcised.

As the tomb of Jesus Christ was guarded by foreign soldiers the Nation Israel today is guarded by foreign Christian nations. Everyone, including the Jewish people, seem to be waiting for the tomb to open (hint: the rapture).

Jesus Christ lay in the tomb 3 days. If one uses the hours of a day as years then the first day is 24 years, the second day is 24 years more, and finally the third day is another 24 years for a total of 72 years.

If the birth of the Nation Israel begins the counting then the first day will be 24 years later which will be 1972. In 1972 you had the killing of the Jewish athletes at the Olympic Village by Muslim terrorists.

The second day will be 24 years later which will be 1996. In 1996 you had Israel starting a military operation called “Operation Grapes of Wrath”.
From Wikipedia.....

The phrase "grapes of wrath" is a reference from the Book of Revelation (chapter 14 verses 19 and 20). It was a well known idea in 19th century American Christian eschatology and also appears in the abolitionist hymn The Battle Hymn of the Republic:

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord:
He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword:
His truth is marching on.


The irony (and potential controversy) of an Israeli military operation being named after a Christian religious doctrine was not entirely lost on the Israeli press. However, most commentators either believed the title was a reference from the Torah or that the phrase merely referred to John Steinbeck's novel of the same name, The Grapes of Wrath.

Notice that each day, 1972 and 1996, is associated with a significant conflict between Muslims and Jews (hint: demons haunting the graveyard).

The 3rd day will be 2020 and it will be another significant event in biblical prophecy as it will be the resurrection of ALL believers in Jesus Christ emerging from their earthly graves and their earthly bodies as they rise up to meet Jesus Christ in the clouds to be taken safely to heaven just before mankind's final judgment.

Believe in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ who is God become man and the only son of God the Father. Then rest assured that on the third day of the Nation Israel (hint: 2020) you'll be included in the rapture to be with God the Father, God the Son Jesus Christ, and God the Holy Spirit in heaven forever!

God Bless
 
When were the people of Israel not a nation?
 
When were the people of Israel not a nation?
They have always existed in the social, cultural and religious sense of the word but from the 70'sAD to 1948 they did not exist in the geo-political sense of the word.
 
Is the land known as Israel today the land promised to Abraham?

Is it the geo-political that makes them God's people.
 
Jos 21:43 And the LORD gave unto Israel all the land which he sware to give unto their fathers; and they possessed it, and dwelt therein.
Jos 21:44 And the LORD gave them rest round about, according to all that he sware unto their fathers: and there stood not a man of all their enemies before them; the LORD delivered all their enemies into their hand.
Jos 21:45 There failed not ought of any good thing which the LORD had spoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass.

Before some one shoots me i am not antisemitic ..
 
The article states .. Some 3,500 years ago the Canaanites inhabited the land that God promised to give to the offspring of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (see Timeline). God promised that He would give the land of Israel to the Jewish people as an eternal possession. The promise was unconditional. God confirmed it at least 55 times with an oath and stated at least 12 times that the covenant was everlasting (see Bible References).

Gen 17:9 And God said unto Abraham, Thou shalt keep my covenant therefore, thou, and thy seed after thee in their generations.
Gen 17:10 This is my covenant, which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee; Every man child among you shall be circumcised.
Gen 17:11 And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a token of the covenant betwixt me and you.
Gen 17:12 And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every man child in your generations, he that is born in the house, or bought with money of any stranger, which is not of thy seed.
Gen 17:13 He that is born in thy house, and he that is bought with thy money, must needs be circumcised: and my covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.
Gen 17:14 And the uncircumcised man child whose flesh of his foreskin is not circumcised, that soul shall be cut off from his people; he hath broken my covenant.

Gen 18:19 For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.

Gen 26:4 And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;
Gen 26:5 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.

lev 26:40 If they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, with their trespass which they trespassed against me, and that also they have walked contrary unto me;
Lev 26:41 And that I also have walked contrary unto them, and have brought them into the land of their enemies; if then their uncircumcised hearts be humbled, and they then accept of the punishment of their iniquity:
Lev 26:42 Then will I remember my covenant with Jacob, and also my covenant with Isaac, and also my covenant with Abraham will I remember; and I will remember the land.

Deu 7:12 Wherefore it shall come to pass, if ye hearken to these judgments, and keep, and do them, that the LORD thy God shall keep unto thee the covenant and the mercy which he sware unto thy fathers:
 
The article says.... Israel entered the Promised Land and hundreds of years later, under King Solomon, they occupied a large part, but not all, of the territory which God had promised to them. Israel was required to obey the Law of Moses and, when they failed, God thrust them out of the land. However, God’s promise that they will inherit the land still stands. We see the Jews being brought back to the Promised Land in our day. We expect that God’s word will be fulfilled and that they will enter their full inheritance. The next question is: What are the boundaries of the Promised Land as described in the Bible?

Scripture says

Jos 21:43 And the LORD gave unto Israel all the land which he sware to give unto their fathers; and they possessed it, and dwelt therein.
Jos 21:44 And the LORD gave them rest round about, according to all that he sware unto their fathers: and there stood not a man of all their enemies before them; the LORD delivered all their enemies into their hand.
Jos 21:45 There failed not ought of any good thing which the LORD had spoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass.
 

Although some of the geographical reference points mentioned in Scripture are difficult for us to identify, God knows the full area into which He is going to bring Israel. We know enough to be sure that Israel is not in her full inheritance yet

1Pe 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
1Pe 1:4 To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you,
1Pe 1:5 Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

 
That was my point; the geographical references are open to interpretation.......
 
I was raised a Scofield dispensationalest , this topic is very interesting to me..
 
What if we are somehow missing the big picture here?

Hebrews 11
13 These all died in faith, not having received the things promised, but having seen them and greeted them from afar, and having acknowledged that they were strangers and exiles on the earth.
14 For people who speak thus make it clear that they are seeking a homeland.
15 If they had been thinking of that land from which they had gone out, they would have had opportunity to return.
16 But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city.

What if like the children of Israel, we are thinking about a physical land - not the heavenly one Abraham was promised and was looking for?

Just prior to the Ascension even the Apostles were looking for Jesus to restore the Kingdom of Israel on earth not a heavenly kingdom...
