MAJOR PROPHECY ALERT! Red Heifer to be Sacrificed Tomorrow 4/22/2024!!!


Hal Turner is reporting that tomorrow, 4/22/2024, Israel is planning on sacrificing two red heifers. I have not been able to confirm the info from any other sources. If this is true, then it will be a major prophecy development. Below is a screen shot of what I wrote in the 2024 Prophecy Forecast dated 1/19/2024.


The Red Heifer and Passover 2024


The sacrificing of the red heifers is necessary to bringing about and dedicating the third temple. The third temple will be in place when the antichrist performs the abomination of desolation. So, if the red heifers are sacrificed tomorrow, it will be a major prophecy development and another step toward the appearance of the antichrist. 

Let me also state that whenever the sacrifice of the red heifers occur it will be an offense to God and the Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus already paid for the sins of the world and when this occurs it will be blasphemous to the Lord. Further, if they sacrifice it tomorrow, on Nisan 14, then it will be a further affront to the Lord Jesus for He was sacrificed on Nisan 14--Good Friday 33 A.D.--1991 years ago.

Muslim sources have indicated that if Israel does this then this will cause problems and they will fight against it because they do not want to see the third temple constructed. 

Also, let me remind you that 2025 is looking prime for when the antichrist will perform the abomination of desolation, take over the world, and institute the mark. So, this red heifer sacrifice, if it occurs tomorrow fits right into the 2025 midpoint timeline with the return of the Lord at Armageddon in 2028. See the post; Will it be 2027 or 2028? Part 2.

And some may ask, what about the rapture when is that going to occur? It will occur after the abomination of desolation, after the antichrist takes over the world, and after the mark. Further the rapture is the first event in a time period known as the Day of the Lord, which occurs after Seal 6 is opened.

Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Luke 21:36

The 2024 Alien Invasion: CIA Deathbed Confession

 


The world is coming to an end, soon Jesus will come back and straighten this whole big mess out, He will defeat satan, and the glorious Millennial kingdom will begin. But before that time the world has a lot to go through, and one of those things is a major UFO ET demonic deception. In fact, I am convinced that part of the UFO ET demonic deception will involve the antichrist. 

Recently some “insider” information has come to the forefront regarding a fake UFO ET alien invasion planned for 2024. Let’s take a look at the information, and then we will consider what is said.

 

https://rumble.com/v3hh6mu-cia-agent-confesses-on-deathbed-billions-will-die-in-2024.html

 

So, he says a fake alien invasion accompanied by attacks by cloaked aircraft will occur in 2024. Assuming this information is legitimate, what are we to make of this? I believe this scenario is a definite possibility. This is especially true in light of data that suggests that the 70th week—the last 7 years—may have begun in 2020. 

And if the last 7 years began in 2020 then the midpoint when the ac takes over the world will be in the spring of 2024. BTW, the spring of 2024 may be when the red heifers needed for the dedication of the third temple are sacrificed. 

Thus, if the 70th week began in 2020 and since we know the antichrist will be ET UFO connected, then this scenario of a 2024 UFO invasion is a definite possibility. (Note: If the 70th week began in 2021 then the midpoint will be in 2025, and the fake alien invasion may be at a later date, so forth and so on.) 

So, I see the fake alien UFO ET invasion event as a strong possibility, it is the year that is questionable. But if the last 7 began in 2020 or even 2021, then I see it as a possibility for 2024.Even if the insider information is not correct, a fake demonic alien invasion is still a definite possibility for events during the end times. 

BTW: I had a dream last night (10/4/23) of an airplane or drone dropping a nuclear bomb. 

Also, McCarthy is out, maybe the next speaker of the house and President, since the speaker of the house is second in line, will be Jim Jordan because he has big ears. 

Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Luke 21:36

Things to Watch For September 2023; Important Update

 


There are a few things that we need to watch for in the near future. One is the California mega earthquake. As you will see below, John Paul Jackson said it would follow a great storm. Was Hurricane Hillary the storm he foresaw?

 

 

“There is a an earthquake that has been predicted to devastate California. Meaning skyscrapers are going to fall that the shape of the United States will change after that earthquake. That won’t happen until after there’s a storm – a major storm is going to come to California. It’s either a hurricane of incredible force, or it is a storm of incredible force. But a great, great hurricane or incredible force is going to come to California, and the earthquake that destroys it will not happen until after that takes place. So there’s a way of saying, okay, I have time, but that doesn’t mean it won’t be an earthquake tomorrow 7.5 you know, or next week or two weeks from now of some some magnitude. I’m talking about the one that changes the shape of California where you don’t want to live in California, anywhere in California, when that happens or perhaps even most of the west coast. Where an inland ocean is formed and Baja becomes an island and the mouth of the inland ocean forms between between San Diego and Los Angeles. That is not going happen before that that storm comes. That is a sign that God is giving to the people- don’t worry about that big one. Because this sign will happen first.”

Another thing to be on the lookout for is a financial collapse. The "white hats" said the black swan events would be coming this year. One of the dates in the past that has had a lot of bad financial events occur on is Elul 29. This year Elul 29 falls on Friday September 15, 2023. And let's not forget about BRICS.

And then we have chatter about a new strain of COVID that is prompting calls for mask wearing, social distancing, and new vaccines.

And then we have all the talk about alien disclosure, that appears to be imminent, that will most likely precede the great falling away that God told us would occur before the son of perdition is revealed of which both will be before the rapture. 

Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day (the rapture) shall not come except there come a falling away first, and then that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;

And since something must happen before the rapture occurs, THE RAPTURE IS NOT IMMINENT. And the passage goes on to tell us that another event must also happen before the rapture, which is the abomination of desolation, that will take place in the third temple.

Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 2 Thes 2:3,4

Update 8/27:

Here is something to keep a watch out for on September 23—a comet and the 3 days of darkness. BTW; in the past 9/23—923—239 has been a highly signaled date.

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Gha6ISjyVE

 

And here is something that syncs in—a comment on a video sent to me. 

"My nine year old started telling us about 3 months ago that Angels came to her & said to prepare for the 3 days of darkness. Food , water , candles - specifically. Two days ago they came again & ask her if she had prepared these things . They also told her about the planet you speak of & it will be here in days & to warn people . First the fires , then the earthquakes - then comes the tsunamis. They also said do NOT go outside once this takes place . We will know when it’s close because the trees & grass will begin to die . It is heading for us now . Prepare with water , food & candles or some kind of light . Sending prayers for all . We have told our entire family today . They also said to leave now if you are near water ."

The Red Heifer and Passover 2024

 


The red heifer is an important piece of the prophecy puzzle. The ashes of the red heifer are needed to dedicate the third temple. And since the temple must be there for the abomination of desolation to occur, and since the abomination of desolation must occur before the day of the Lord/rapture, thus the sacrifice of the red heifer is a necessary event that must occur before the rapture can occur. 

The video below lays out a pretty good case for the red heifer being sacrificed during Passover of 2024. 

The holiday of Pesach, or Passover, falls on the Hebrew calendar dates of Nissan 15-22. Pesach 2024 (Passover) begins before sundown on Monday, April 22, 2024, and ends after nightfall on April 30, 2024. 


 

So, if the red heifer is sacrificed in April of 2024, then that would allow for the possibility of the antichrist arising and the temple being dedicated from April 2024 into the future. And where is the temple that would need the ashes of the red heifer to be dedicated? I believe it is possible that the antichrist could fly the temple down out of the sky with antigravity technology. It is also possible that the temple is already made in a prefab fashion and could be assembled quickly. 

So, at the least the red heifer information would imply that the end times are near and applying the information to a chronology further implies a midpoint as early as the spring of 2024 which would imply an end date of 2027, a midpoint of 2025 would imply an end date of 2028, so forth and so on. 

Red heifer—end is near—will the end be 2027 or 2028 or some other year? 

Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Luke 21:36

Knock, Knock; Who’s There? The Red Heifer

 


Most of you know that Bible prophecy predicts there will be a third temple and that the third temple will be desecrated by the antichrist when he performs the abomination of desolation. You will also see in the verses below that this will occur near the midpoint—1290 days—of the last 7 years, and the great tribulation—Seal 5—begins after the abomination of desolation. 

And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days. Dan 12:11

 

15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) 

16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: 

17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house: 

18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes. 

19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! 

20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: 

21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. Mt 24

 

Notice also in the verses below that the Day of Christ/Lord comes after the abomination of desolation. Also remember that the rapture occurs during the Day of the Lord. 

1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, 

2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. 

3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 

4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 2 Thes 2

 

So, obviously these end times events cannot occur until the third temple is in place. It has been reported for many years that the Jews have all that is needed for the construction of the third temple and are ready to build it, except for one thing, a red heifer is needed to dedicate it. In past years several candidates for red heifers have come forth, but to date none have qualified until possibly now. 5 red heifer candidates have just been flown to Israel. 

The Temple Institute and Boneh Israel made a huge step towards reinstating the Temple service on Thursday when five red heifers landed at Ben Gurion International Airport. 

The red heifer was the main component in the Biblically mandated process of ritual purification for impurity that results from proximity or contact with a dead body.  Because the elements needed for this ceremony have been lacking since the destruction of the Second Temple, all Jews today are considered ritually impure, thereby preventing the return of the Temple service. The Temple Institute launched its  Red Heifer program about a decade ago, led by Rabbi Azariah Ariel… 

Source: https://www.israel365news.com/274830/watch-red-heifers-arrive-in-israel/

 

So, will one of these red heifers be used to dedicate the third temple and usher in the era of the false messiah? Time will tell but some Jews are already declaring that the year 5783 that begins on 9/25/22 will be the year in which the ceremony of the Red Heifer will be performed. 

If this is the case, then we are not far from when the false messiah arrives on the scene and performs the abomination of desolation after which Israel will flee into the wilderness and the great tribulation will begin. 

Note: My research has led me to believe that the abomination of desolation which is near the midpoint will occur in the spring of a year. Thus, if it were to occur in the spring of 2023, the temple would need to be in place by then, and a lot would have to happen between now and then for that to occur. Thus, the years 2024 and beyond would be better possibilities for the abomination of desolation and the arising of the antichrist, but you never know. 

After Israel flees the antichrist will then take over the world, and the Seal 5 persecution of Jews and Christians—great tribulation—will begin where no one can buy or sell without taking the mark of the beast as seen in the verses below. 

14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. 

15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. 

16 And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth. 

17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. Rev 12

 

3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. 

4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? 

5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. 

6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. 

7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. 

8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. 

9 If any man have an ear, let him hear. 

16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 

17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. 

18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. Rev 13

 

So, in the next year or so, will we be on the threshold of the third temple and all the midpoint end times events surrounding it, which presupposes that the last 7 years has already begun? Is the antichrist near to coming onto the scene? Is the Seal 5 mark of the beast and the war against Jews and Christians looming in the near future? 

Regardless of when, these events will eventually happen, have you prepared for the end times? Remember, the rapture will not occur until after Seal 6 has been opened. 

BTW, here is what the long-range forecast is showing for 10/29/22—Hurricane Hermine hitting Florida.

 


And then another one on 10/6/22—Hurricane Ian. Of course, these are long range models, and they can change many times.


 

Note: Hermine just formed off Africa and is supposed to dissipate. But the next named storm is to be Ian and the models are showing it hitting Florida.

Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Luke 21:36

The Red Heifer and the Two Messiahs

 



A couple of interesting stories with great prophetic significance popped up this week. They deal with the red heifer and the two messiahs. (HT The Big the One) 

The Red Heifer: 

Rabbi Burstein announced: red cow soon

rabbi Menachem Burshtein on the eve of the cow affair: "in about six months, we have a red cow ready and summoned for the work of the temple."

Source: rabbi burstein announced: red cow soon | channel 7 (inn.co.il) 

As most of you are probably aware the ashes of a red heifer are required for the dedication of the coming third Temple. So this development regarding the red heifer, if true, paves way for the dedication of the third Temple. 

Those who have studied their Bible know that the antichrist will perform the abomination of desolation in the Temple near the middle of the last 7 years, after which he will become the ruler of the world. 

The Two Messiahs: 

Two messiahs??? This is a new one on me, maybe I heard about it before but forgot. Here are the details. 

What does the Russian invasion of Ukraine have to do with the Messiah? Everything, according to one rabbi who studied the Talmud’s prophecy. Rabbi Yehuda Richter of Kfar Tappuach revealed in a recent lecture entitled ‘Emergency Broadcast: Russia, Ukraine, Armageddon, Bringing the Redemption’ that in the Talmud, a little-known prophesy touches on how wars in “the seventh year” are a sign of the End-of-days and a harbinger of the Messiah’s arrival… 

The rabbi explains that the Nation of Israel will experience redemption in the seventh year – or the Sabbatical year, which we are in right now. 

The rabbi then explains that when the wars end in the seventh year, the Messiah, a descendant of David, arrives in the eighth year (September 2022-September 2023) 

“It says that in the seventh year, there are wars, and that represents the beginning of redemption, and then the messiah comes. At the at the eve of the seventh year, so most of the commentaries say that there’s of course two messiahs. There’s the messiah, the son of joseph who fights the battles – who’s the physical side of the redemption of the Jewish people and that happens during the seventh year – wars, etc. And then after the seventh year is over the beginning of the eighth year, that is the Messiah of David.”

Source: https://www.israel365news.com/267995/talmudic-prophesy-reveals-russia-ukraine-war-indicates-messiahs-arrival-as-early-as-2022/ 

This is quite an interesting concept—a fighting messiah, the son of Joseph and a redeeming/ruling messiah of David. We know in the end times that the antichrist false messiah will rule the world and will be claimed to be from the lineage of David. Could the son of Joseph messiah be the false prophet? 

Now let’s consider his date parameters; I have heard of statements by Rabbi’s in the past that have not come true, so just because he says it does not mean that it will happen, but it also does not mean that it won’t happen the way he says—time will tell. 

Remember the Talmud is a set of Jewish writings and is not the inspired Word of God. 

The word “Talmud” is a Hebrew word meaning “learning, instruction.” The Talmud is a central text of mainstream Judaism and consists primarily of discussions and commentary on Jewish history, law (especially its practical application to life), customs and culture.

Source: https://www.gotquestions.org/Talmud.html 

So, what are we to make of all of this? Are we on the verge of seeing the third Temple built and dedicated with the ashes of a red heifer? Will there be two messiahs and if so are these false messiahs near to appearing on the scene? As always time will tell but this is something to definitely keep an eye on, but if what they are saying will come to pass then it has major prophetic implications. 

Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Luke 21:36

Here Comes the Third Temple—Out of Heaven! Updated




Some very interesting news has come to the surface regarding the third temple. First read this short post from 2013 and then I will show you the interesting news.

Friday, May 3, 2013
Where's the Third Temple?

Several times I have been asked by various people the following question; if we are on the verge of seeing the antichrist arise, then where’s the temple? Their thinking goes like this; if the antichrist is supposed to perform the Abomination of Desolation then there has to be a temple for him to do that, so if the time is approaching for him to come onto the scene, where is the temple? I am glad that people are thinking this through, for that is a great question, that I have asked myself.

My answer; I see 2 possibilities.

1. They can very quickly erect a tabernacle (temporary temple) like they did in the Old Testament days when they were traveling in the wilderness.

2. The antichrist will “miraculously” make a temple appear.

Those are the two possibilities that I see at this time. In regards to the antichrist making a temple “miraculously” appear a blog reader sent me an interesting idea (H.T. Sherry) What if the antichrist, that many are convinced, including myself, will have UFO connections, brought down the temple out of the sky. Now wouldn’t that be interesting. Do you think an action like that would help people believe in him and precipitate the great falling away?

Think that is too far fetched? There have been many reports of people seeing large UFOs, some even miles wide. Here is something else to think about; if the evil forces have anti gravity technology, which there have been rumors that they do, then they could build the Temple off site, and fly it anywhere that they want to. Hmm…think about it.

I am not saying that is how it will happen, just helping you realize that a temple could "appear" very quickly. Thus in my opinion the lack of a temple at this point does not prevent the arising of the antichrist.


Do you think that is far-fetched, that the Temple could come down out of heaven with UFO anti-gravity technology? I am sure many laughed at my assertion.

Now here is the pertinent news.

“Rabbi Nissan does not speak often but when he speaks, it is to be taken seriously. Rabbi Nissan said that by Passover seder, the geula (redemption) will begin, and on the night of the Passover seder, the Third Temple will descend from heaven.”

Report: Israel’s Top Rabbi Orders Ceremonial White Robe to Greet Messiah

Now how far-fetched does it sound? Remember the Seals may be in the process of being opened. And if they are Seal 2—the Mid-East centered WW3 will be next. Followed by the Seal 3 hyperinflationary financial collapse, and the Seal 4 death of 1.9 billion. Then comes the antichrist and the abomination of desolation in the Temple.

The Passover Seder this year is on April 8, 2020. Will it be Passover on April 8 this year or Passover in a future year? Or because of the coronavirus will Passover be delayed?

Update: Remember the plan calls for WW3 to start from an incident in Basra, Iraq



Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Luke 21:36

No One Knows the Day or Hour of What?





Have you heard that before; “no one knows the day or hour.” But what is it referring to; no one knows the day or hour of what?

Let’s examine the passages and then we will answer the question. 

Matthew 24:36

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

Matthew 24:50

The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,

Matthew 25:13

Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.

Mark 13:32

But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.

In reading the passages in context, it is easy to see that Jesus clearly taught that no one knows the day or hour of His return.  But what return is He referring to; His return to the clouds at the rapture, or His return to the earth at Armageddon?

Let’s look at the Matthew passage in context, and the answer is easily seen.

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

37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,

39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

Again, it is easy to see that Jesus is referring to the rapture when He says no one knows the day or hour—one taken, the other left. This is a truth that I readily affirm and teach; no one knows the day or hour of Christ’s return to the clouds at the rapture.

So if Jesus was referring to the rapture when He said no one knows the day or hour of His return, can we know the day of his second coming at Armageddon at the end of the 7 years?

Yes; absolutely! Think about it; we know that the antichrist takes over the world at the midpoint of the last 7 years. So when that occurs we will know that the Second Coming at Armageddon will occur 3.5 years later. Then all who see the antichrist take over the world can know that Armageddon will be 3.5 years later, and thus all will know the date of the Second Coming of the Lord.

Further if you apply end times parameters, such as the fulfilling of the fall feasts, and that they will align with Second Coming events, one can further conjecture a start date for the last 7 years. All the while, we will still not know the day or hour of Christ’s return at the rapture.  This, as we have already established, will occur at an unknown time after the midpoint and before the end.

Some Christians cannot understand this and label anyone who suggests a possible end times chronology as heretical. In The Coming Epiphany I present the following chart that suggests possible start and end dates for the last 7 years based on aligning Armageddon with the Feast of Trumpets.



Again; this chart aligns Armageddon with the Feast of Trumpets and thus presents possible dates for the start of the 70th Week—the last 7 years.
 
Further there are several end times parameters that have manifested themselves in recent months, and if we apply those parameters the following three “most likely” scenarios are the result. For a full explanation of these scenarios see the post; Calculations for the "End of Days".

From the comments; here is a chart showing the parameters.


Again these are hypothetical most likely scenarios. When we see the Seals opened we will know for sure that we are in the last 7 years.  And when we see the antichrist take over the world we will know that Armageddon will be 1260 days or 42 months, or 3.5 years later. And at the same time we will still not know the day or hour of Jesus’s return, because he will return at an unknown time between the midpoint and Armageddon after the Sixth Seal is opened. BTW; Jesus CANNOT come back today! If you do not believe me, maybe you will believe the church fathers; What the Church Fathers Taught About the antichrist and the Rapture
 
No one knows the day or hour of the rapture, but at some point in time we will know the day and hour of Christ’s second coming at Armageddon.

 
Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Luke 21:36
 
Not sure that you will go to heaven? The end times are knocking on the door and so is Jesus. He wants to save you, will you let him in? Find out what you must do to be saved, click here.
 
Do you know what will happen in the end times and how to prepare for them? I wrote a book to help you. It is entitled The Coming Epiphany and will explain to you, in an easy to understand format what you need to know about the end times. The Coming Epiphany is available in paperback and as an eBook on Amazon.com. (If you cannot afford one please email me)

Note: I appreciate and want to thank all of you who have helped support this ministry by purchasing a book and or making a donation.
