Part 5 section B  the seven year ministry of Jesus - the coming of the Son of Man after the Great Tribulation 

Matthew 24:29-36

29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:

33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.

35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

The seven years ministry of Jesus. And the 70th week of Daniel which involves the two witnesses of Revelation 11

• Jesus was to be in ministry for seven years seven being the number of perfection however He was cut off, and He proclaimed the year of Favour of God to bring the gospel of good news of God forgiving men and reconciling them to Himself through the sacrifice of His Son on the cross.
• So while Jesus was on the earth He preached the Kingdom of God through forgiveness, and salvation and showed grace by healing people of their sicknesses and sins.
• Jesus was proclaiming the year of favour of God He stopped short of speaking of the year of vengeance of God for that will not be spoken about until the end of the age of man, the end or fullness of the Gentiles before He comes back as King and Judge.
• Jesus came as a lamb and Priest, the first time to take away the sins of the world and Israel.  He is coming again to bring in the Kingdom of Heaven Himself to the earth as both king, High Priest and judge.

So how does Jesus have seven years of ministry?

• I will tell you how. Then I will put in scriptures of relevance to what I am saying.
• The first three and half years when Jesus was ministering in person on earth proclaiming peace on earth between God and man and He brought spiritual peace through His cross.  He will be bringing physical peace when he returns in war to bring peace.
• At the end of the age when the earth is ripe for judgment after the gospel has gone forth to all nations.  The third temple will be built and the church will be in total apostasy and will form a false one world religion along with other world religions worshiping another god the false messiah.
• There will be a true body of believers called saints.  They will be hidden they will form the underground body of Christ.
• The last three and half years of the Lord’s ministry will be done by His two chosen witnesses who will be doing what was spoken of by John the Baptist that Jesus will be coming with His winnowing fork in His hand to separate the wheat from the chaff.   Which He will be doing before He returns. He will be doing this by sending the angels out to bring in the harvest those to be put into the barns the wheat and the grapes to be trampled on in the wine press of the wrath of God.
• God will raise up two witnesses unto Himself to be His Son’s forerunners to proclaim the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ in judgment as King of all Glory to proclaim the coming Day of Vengeance, aka Day of Atonement of God.
• These two witnesses will be speaking under the unction of the Holy Spirit the Spirit of Truth and they will be proclaiming the Day of Vengeance, the return of the Lord, the kingdom of God and they will be both praying for judgment to come on the earth and to speak forth these judgments. 
•  God will answer their prayers by giving them authority to speak forth judgment upon the earth.  The Spirit of Jesus will be doing this through them for the period of three and half years, this will make up the seven years of ministry of Jesus.
• So the two witnesses will be speaking about the Day of Vengeance of God which Jesus didn’t speak of for it wasn’t the end of the Age yet before God will rule on the earth through His Son. 
• Now the time is coming when the two prophetic witnesses will complete the ministry of Christ by speaking about this Day of wrath that is coming plus judging the earth with God’s judgments through the Holy Spirit speaking, praying through them.  
• They will stand in the authority of the Lord to do this.
• They will be in a way preparing the earth for the Lord’s return, calling people to repentance warning about and carrying out judgments then after they have witnessed against mankind, the Lord will have them killed and taken up to heaven.
• Then at the time appointed as a result of their witness the people of Israel will call upon the Lord to save them and He will come forth from heaven to redeem them from their enemies.
• So the two witnesses make up the other three and half years of the Lord Jesus Christ’s ministry on the earth so that combined it equals seven years, first three and half years is peace the first coming of the Lord.  
• Second three and half years equals tribulation, judgment and vengeance and will result in the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ

Daniel's 70th week mirror image of the ministry of Jesus

These following points are just my own thoughts.

•  It is possible that the final week of years Daniel’s 70th week is a mirror image of the ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ.  He came in peace fulfilled three and half years, died, rose again and ascended to heaven where He is held in exile until His people call for Him.  
• The final three and half years of His ministry with two witnesses proclaiming His coming with judgments warning about the coming day of Vengeance of our God which will culminate in His people calling for Him to save them.
• The final seven years will equal Daniel’s 70th week over a seven year period which will allow the false messiah to rise in peace with a false peace of three and half years.  
• This false period of peace will be followed by three and half years of Great Tribulation which will be the period of time after the death of the two prophets where God will be pouring out His unadulterated wrath on the kingdom of the false messiah who will be set up in the temple of Jerusalem by this time.
• The false messiah will pretend to be the anointed one the Christ that the Jews and the world will be looking for he will be bringing in a false peace, allow the temple to be built and then he will set himself up in it to be worshiped as God.  The final three and half years he will be wreaking vengeance on his enemies those who will stand against him with the word of God, the blood of the Lamb and their testimony. 
• He will be putting the believers of Jesus to death beginning with the two witnesses and God will be pouring out His wrath on this wicked kingdom.  Just like He did on the kingdom of Pharaoh in Egypt at the time of the first Exodus when He judged the gods of Egypt.  God will be judging the gods of modern man.
• So Jerusalem will be destroyed through the wrath of God against satan and the world as well and God will shake the heavens at the coming of His Son from heaven and He will set up His kingdom on the earth bringing healing to the nations once He is enthroned in Jerusalem.  As well as having the city of Jerusalem rebuilt
• Satan will fool people into thinking that this false shepherd is Christ by bringing in peace to the middle east and building a temple but once he is established he will turn on God’s true people and those even of this own to make sure only he will be ruling on the earth.  
• During this time during the first three and half years of the false peace of this false messiah God will be speaking about the true coming kingdom of His Son and warning about the day of judgment that is coming in the day of the Lord.  
• The Lord will be sending the trumpet judgments upon the earth before He sends the vial judgments upon the kingdom of satan after these prophets are killed in the final three and half years of Tribulation before the coming of Jesus.
• In the meantime the people the great majority of them will be believing that this false man will be the messiah because of the peace he will be bringing and the temple he will build making peace with all religions including the various Christian denominations in a false harmony/ unity under Rome’s yoke. 
•  Thereby all denominations will be destroyed and the church will be one with Rome.  Who will join all of these people with the other faiths except Judaism who will have dominance over them all through the political messiah who will control the world’s religions as well.
•   All of this will have a form of power and miracles and signs but they will be lying signs and wonders to fool people.  The spirit behind this is a very strong religious spirit in fact it is the power of satan himself.
• What will follow is all out war between God and satan who by this time will be ruling from the temple in Jerusalem over the earth and forcing people to take his mark in allegiance to him.  
• This mark will be the counterfeit of the seal of the true Holy Spirit that God seals His true children with which keeps them unto salvation in full at His Son’s return.  
• So God will be pouring out His wrath on satan’s kingdom see Revelation 16 and satan will be pouring out his wrath on those who are obedient to Christ and keep his commandments see Revelation 12, 13, 17-18.  It is all out spiritual warfare between these two kingdoms and enemies God versus satan and He will totally vanquish him to the bottomless pit when His Son is called forth from heaven by His Israeli people.  
• This will be when they welcome Him back to their nation and city through a travailing prayer to come and save them at the end when the armies invade Israel and Jerusalem and they will have nowhere to go and no one to turn to but God Himself more on that in the next segment about Israel in this paper.
• Those who believe in the Lord who are alive still at this time are not under His wrath see 1 Thessalonians 5, God will keep us safe in Him though people may be martyred for their faith and stand in Jesus they will go to be with Him.  
• It is those who reject the gospel that will be burned up by the brightness of His coming see 2 Thessalonians 1:5-10.  It will be satan who will be putting the believers to death and they will be bearing the brunt of his wrath not God’s.  Those who bear the brunt of God’s wrath will be those who support the false Christ, the false prophet and satan and they will suffer eternally for following them and taking their mark see Revelation 13 & 1
• God will be sending the vials of His judgments upon the earth Revelation 14-16, reaping the harvest of the grapes of wrath trampling down the nations and spattering His garments with their blood.  
• He will be dealing with them like He dealt with the Egyptians before they let His people go.  Now He will save those who belong to Him by coming for them in the clouds raising them up and changing their mortal bodies into immortal bodies so that they can rule and reign with Him as priests and kings over the earth and be able to stand in His glory to worship Him.
• Before Jesus does come back God deals Babylon the world system a final death blow by giving to her the double amount of His wrath the cup of the wine of His wrath. 
• When this evil system has been finally destroyed then the marriage of the Lamb can take place on the earth and Jesus can come from heaven to redeem His people and to dwell with them forever in Jerusalem which will be the beginning of His eternal reign.

Now to the scriptures.

Isaiah 61:1-2

1 The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;

2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord (first coming), and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; (second coming)

Daniel 9:24-27

24  Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.

25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and

threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.

26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.

27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

Matthew 3:1-12

1 In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea,

2 And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

3 For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

4 And the same John had his raiment of camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins; and his meat was locusts and wild honey.

5 Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and all the region round about Jordan,

6 And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins.

7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

8 Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance:

9 And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.

10 And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance. but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:

12 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

13 Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him.

Luke 4:14-22

 14 And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee: and there went out a fame of him through all the region round about.

15 And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified of all.

16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read.

17 And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written,

18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,

19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.

20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him.

21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.

22 And all bare him witness, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth. And they said, Is not this Joseph's son?

Revelation 11:1-14

1 And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.

2 But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.

3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.

4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.

5 And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.

6 These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.

7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.

8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.

9 And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.

10 And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.

11 And after three days and an half the spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.

12 And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.

13 And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven.

14 The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly.

The Forming of the State of Israel, Zion travailing and bringing forth the man child from heaven

• Israel is the fig tree putting out its leaves to show that the end is near and the Lord is at the door so to speak.  However before He comes there must be a time of false peace followed by the time of Great Tribulation, where the false messiah will rule over Israel and the nations from the temple pretending to be God to be worshipped as God. Matthew 24:32-33, 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4.
• Yes Israel was formed as a State in a day through a vote by the UN but it was man doing this though God was working behind the scenes to allow this.  This forming of the State is not the coming together of the people through God bringing them as spoken of in Isaiah 11 or Isaiah 49.  
• Nor is Jesus visibly and physically back among His people ruling from Jerusalem, the counterfeit must come before the true.  
• In other words the false kingdom of the false messiah must rise up first to deceive many, this is the sifting that will take place before the end when God will separate the wheat from the tares in the final harvest by the angels at the end of the age Matthew 13 and Revelation 14.
• In reading Isaiah 66:7 you will read that Zion which is Jerusalem gives birth to a man-child.  Israel is not Zion as such Zion refers to Jerusalem or Mt Zion where the temple once stood and will stand again.  Zion represents both Israel and Jerusalem. 
• So Jerusalem is the one to give birth to the man child.  When Israel was formed they did not give birth to the man child who is Jesus who is in heaven.
• Jerusalem is the one to give birth to the man child by being in anguish they will call for Him to come from heaven to save them.  
• How will they call for Him?  They will call for Him when they are surrounded by the world’s armies which God will cause to come up against Israel and Jerusalem Himself so that He will enter into judgment with them. 
•  So when Jerusalem is invaded and has no one else to turn to or nowhere else to run those descendants of the ones who rejected Jesus will be forced to call upon Him to come and save them and they will be forced to say Baruch Ha BaShem Adonai Blessed is He that comes in the name of the Lord.
• Then Jesus will come forth at their cry with His saints being caught up and resurrected along with His angels to rescue and redeem His people they will be calling upon Him as the Lord gives to them the spirit of grace and supplication to do so.  
• He will land on the Mt of Olives causing it to split in half and making a way for the people to flee through the valley caused by His feet standing on the mountain and He will stand over His people and fight against those who are coming up against them.
• Jesus is the man child who is in heaven to whom the people will call for and He is the One who will forgive them of their sins and cleanse them on that day and He will judge the nations in the valley of decision too.
• This is what will take place in simplistic terms at the end of the age and not before when it is time on God’s calendar for this to take place it will happen.  
• So no matter what people will do to try and hasten it and to try through their antics of praying, yelling, decreeing, declaring this or that it won’t bring Jesus down from heaven.
• Until it is time for Him to come at the cry of His Israeli people when He deems them to be broken enough and willing enough for them to receive Him as their king again for He will not allow them to reject Him from being king over them again.
• So when you hear people say that they are to restore this or that or the church has to do this or that to bring about the return of the Lord Jesus Christ from heaven and that they must transform and save culture to do this.  Don’t believe them for this is not found in the scripture but it is from the pit of hell and God will soon give those who believe this lie over to the strong spirit of delusion that He God will send upon them and they will end up following the antichrist and his false kingdom.

Scriptures 

Man-child in heaven, woman in this scripture is Israel represented by Mary giving birth to Christ.

Revelation 12:1-6

1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:

2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.

3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.

4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.

5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.

6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.

Israel birthing a man-child

Isaiah 66:7

7 Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child.

Armies invading Jerusalem brought about by God

Revelation 16:12-21

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 that great day of God Almighty.

15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that 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.

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.

Zechariah 14:1-2

1 Behold, the day of the Lord cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.

2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.

God giving Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication and He will be fighting for His people.

Zechariah 12:8-14

8 In that day shall the Lord defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as God, as the angel of the Lord before them.

9 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.

10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.

11 In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.

12 And the land shall mourn, every family apart; the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart;

13 The family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart; the family of Shimei apart, and their wives apart;

14 All the families that remain, every family apart, and their wives apart.

Jesus making a way of escape for His people and will rule as King over the earth.

Zechariah 14:3-11

3 Then shall the Lord go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.

4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.

5 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the Lord my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.

6 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the light shall not be clear, nor dark:

7 But it shall be one day which shall be known to the Lord, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light.

8 And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the former sea, and half of them toward the hinder sea: in summer and in winter shall it be.

9 And the Lord shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one Lord, and his name one.

10 All the land shall be turned as a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem: and it shall be lifted up, and inhabited in her place, from Benjamin's gate unto the place of the first gate, unto the corner gate, and from the tower of Hananeel unto the king's winepresses.

11 And men shall dwell in it, and there shall be no more utter destruction; but Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited.

Jesus standing over His people to fight for and to protect them 

Zechariah 9:11-17

11 As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.

12 Turn you to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even to day do I declare that I will render double unto thee;

13 When I have bent Judah for me, filled the bow with Ephraim, and raised up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Greece, and made thee as the sword of a mighty man.

14 And the Lord shall be seen over them, and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning: and the Lord God shall blow the trumpet, and shall go with whirlwinds of the south.

15 The Lord of hosts shall defend them; and they shall devour, and subdue with sling stones; and they shall drink, and make a noise as through wine; and they shall be filled like bowls, and as the corners of the altar.

16 And the Lord their God shall save them in that day as the flock of his people: for they shall be as the stones of a crown, lifted up as an ensign upon his land.

17 For how great is his goodness, and how great is his beauty! corn shall make the young men cheerful, and new wine the maids.

God harvesting the wheat from the tares.

Matthew 13:24-30, 36-43, 47-50

24 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:

25 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.

26 But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.

27 So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?

28 He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?

29 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.

30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.

36 Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.

37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;

 38The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;

39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.

40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.

41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;

42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

47 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:

48 Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away.

49 So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just,

50 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Revelation 14:14-20

 14 And I looked, and behold a white cloud, 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 of the earth is ripe.

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

1 Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments 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.

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 people in mine anger, and make them drunk in my fury, and I will bring down their strength to the earth.

Matthew 24:29-34

29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:

33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.

1 Thessalonians 4:13-18

 13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.

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 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.

1 Corinthians 15:50-54

 50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.

God coming with His saints and judging the nations in the valley of decision.

Revelation 19:1-21

19 And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God:

2 For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.

3 And again they said, Alleluia And her smoke rose up for ever and ever.

4 And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down and worshipped God that sat on the throne, saying, Amen; Alleluia.

5 And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great.

6 And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.

7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.

8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.

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.

10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.

11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.

13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.

14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.

15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.

16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, King Of Kings, And Lord Of Lords.

17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God;

18 That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great.

19 And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.

20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.

21 And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.

Joel 3:9-21

9 Proclaim ye this among the Gentiles; Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, let all the men of war draw near; let them come up:

10 Beat your plowshares into swords and your pruninghooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong.

11 Assemble yourselves, and come, all ye heathen, and gather yourselves together round about: thither cause thy mighty ones to come down, O Lord.

12 Let the heathen be wakened, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there will I sit to judge all the heathen round about.

13 Put ye in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe: come, get you down; for the press is full, the fats overflow; for their wickedness is great.

14 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision.

15 The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their shining.

16 The Lord also shall roar out of Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth shall shake: but the Lord will be the hope of his people, and the strength of the children of Israel.

17 So shall ye know that I am the Lord your God dwelling in Zion, my holy mountain: then shall Jerusalem be holy, and there shall no strangers pass through her any more.

18 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drop down new wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the rivers of Judah shall flow with waters, and a 

fountain shall come forth out of the house of the Lord, and shall water the valley of Shittim.

19 Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, for the violence against the children of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land.

20 But Judah shall dwell for ever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation.

21 For I will cleanse their blood that I have not cleansed: for the Lord dwelleth in Zion.

Matthew 25:31-34

 31 When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:

32 And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:

33 And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.

34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:

Marriage supper takes place on earth

Isaiah 25:6-10a

6 And in this mountain shall the Lord of hosts make unto all people a feast of fat things, a feast of wines on the lees, of fat things full of marrow, of wines on the lees well refined.

7 And he will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering cast over all people, and the vail that is spread over all nations.

8 He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord God will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the Lord hath spoken it.

9 And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the Lord; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.

10 For in this mountain shall the hand of the Lord rest,

The promise of God to do good to His people

Jeremiah 32:36-44

36 And now therefore thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel, concerning this city, whereof ye say, It shall be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence;

37 Behold, I will gather them out of all countries, whither I have driven them in mine anger, and in my fury, and in great wrath; and I will bring them again unto this place, and I will cause them to dwell safely:

38 And they shall be my people, and I will be their God:

39 And I will give them one heart, and one way,  that they may fear me for ever, for the good of them, and of their children after them:

40 And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good; but I will put my fear in their hearts, that they shall not depart from me.

41 Yea, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will plant them in this land assuredly with my whole heart and with my whole soul.

42 For thus saith the Lord; Like as I have brought all this great evil upon this people, so will I bring upon them all the good that I have promised them.

43 And fields shall be bought in this land, whereof ye say, It is desolate without man or beast; it is given into the hand of the Chaldeans.

44 Men shall buy fields for money, and subscribe evidences, and seal them, and take witnesses in the land of Benjamin, and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, and in the cities of the mountains, and in the cities of the valley, and in the cities of the south: for I will cause their captivity to return, saith the Lord.

Vision dream I had about the return of Jesus 

I had a vision type dream in which I saw the return of Jesus, I may have written this down somewhere else and I may come across it again.  However for the purpose of writing about it on this document I will write down what I can recall of this vision dream.  I cannot exactly remember in what year I had this dream it could have been in the year 2006 or 2008.  The year doesn’t matter it is the fact I had this dream and I feel the Lord was showing me what is going to take place when He returns concerning His Israeli people.

The vision type dream.

I dreamt that the sky was black very black no stars were shining and suddenly there was a speck of bright light coming which grew bigger as it came towards earth.  Suddenly I was caught up into the air and was caught up towards this light.  The light was Jesus He was coming back to the earth to bring in His kingdom and He was having His own people being caught up to be with Him.  Then we were on the ground and I was standing very near Jesus in fact I was a bit behind Him and to His left, There were people coming up to Him and kneeling before Him and asking for His forgiveness of their sins and He was forgiving them, I noticed that I was clothed in white and I had a sword in my hand.  Then I woke up.

For a while I was puzzled about why people were coming up to Jesus and were able to kneel at His feet asking for His forgiveness and He was giving it to them.  For I knew the scriptures about His second coming and there was no mention of His forgiving His enemies but they spoke about His dealing with them in judgement.

It wasn’t until I started to read the bible and take it literally about the Lord’s second coming in relation to Israel did I realize that the people coming up to Jesus were not His enemies from the Gentile nations who were surrounding Jerusalem to overthrow it but they were His Israeli brethren those from the House of Israel and Judah.  

They were His kinsmen who He kept alive to call for Him they were the remnant the scriptures often speak of that God would have at the end who He would make His own.  Jeremiah 30 – 33, Ezekiel 36-48, Isaiah 40-66 and Zechariah 12-14, Joel 3, Zephaniah 3, Romans 11 and Revelation 19:10 – 22. 

 All these scriptures and others speak of the Lord returning to redeem and rescue His people and to restore Zion (Jerusalem) to her rightful place in Him and His being with His people forever never more to be removed from them.

The sky was dark because the scriptures speak about the sun being darkened and the moon turning to blood and the stars falling from the sky on the Day of the Lord which is the second coming of Jesus to the earth.  This is so that the coming glory of the Lord Jesus can be seen even more clearly against the darkness of the night spiritually and physically on the earth. 

 Some people foolishly think that when Jesus returns we need to be seeing Him on TV via satellite coverage not so and besides a lot of this satellites might be knocked offline by warfare, meteorite showers.  We won’t need these man made things to show the coming of Jesus. No when Jesus states in Matthew 24 that every eye will see Him coming in the clouds in His glory and majesty and His holy angels He means it. 

 When He spoke about this there were no man made satellites they weren’t even thought of back then.  No He means what He says everyone will see Him coming no matter on what part of the planet they will be on for He will be circling the globe before He touches down on the Mt of Olives.

He will be gathering His chosen people together by sounding the last shofar and shouting with an authoritative command to raise the righteous dead as He comes from heaven and by sending out His angels to gather the elect from the righteous Gentiles and Israeli people.

We will be given our garments our white priests robes of righteousness and we will have a sword representing His word of authority to wage warfare with His enemies.  

That is why I was clothed in white robes and had a sword.  The Lord was showing me the truth about His return that He is coming physically back to earth in His glorified body and He will be gathering His elect those who are asleep and awake in Him and that He will be returning to Israel and He will be forgiving His Israeli kinsmen upon His return and restoring them to Himself.
