Clarification for such an URGENT MESSAGE!!!

  WAKE UP, CHURCH!

THIS IS IN RESPONSE TO A COMMENT, THOUGHT PEOPLE SHOULD READ THIS!

 I apologize for  my attitude but it is so frustrating to try and bring believers to a deeper level of truth in God's word!  I am exhausted when I get off my computer because I want so badly for all of us to hear what God is saying to his Church today.  The enemy has been 99.9% successful in bending and twisting God's truth that I can hardly believe it.  He has convinced the entire Church that no man can know the day of the rapture by distorting the scripture just like he did with Eve and tried with Jesus when he attempted to get him to throw himself off a mountain using His own word! These preachers have forgotten that we serve a God who sets times and seasons.  His power rests only with his ability to keep his foretold times and appointments.  We believe God because he has always told what he is going to do and when he is going to do it. The contest with Satan is showing him that God always does what he says on time!  Think back:  Noah: 120 years; Lot, Moses, in the 4th generation; Jeremiah's captivity discovered by Daniel: 70 years; Jesus: "Cut off" at the end of the 69th week; there are more, check them out!  The Old Testament feast days mean: "set times"  God set the sun, moon and stars on appointed courses to rule "time."  He is so obsessed with times that he wrote 2 books: Numbers and Chronicles.  He goes out of his way to tell who was ruling and which course of priests were serving to assure us of the time.  Set times are God's claim to fame, if they were not important, how could he show his absolute power?  You and I can make promises and hope that we can keep them when the time comes.  God makes promises and makes them happen at "his" appointed time.  All we are asking believers to do is think about the God that they "think" they know and study his characteristics.  The children of Israel wandered for 40 years in the wilderness for seeing God's works but not coming to know his "ways."  He was grieved with them because of that and "took his promise off the shelf."  (Heb.3:11)We have caused the Lord to delay his promise because of our "unbelief" just like them. 

Okay,
1.  Matt 24:3: "...tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?"  Jesus answered those questions by taking them to the beginning of the 70th week, when he turns back to the Jews and begins the Great Tribulation.  He did not mention an appearing in the air for them as Paul revealed in 1 Cor. 15:51.  That was a revelation for Paul to the Church. The whole of chapter 24 addresses what will happen during the Great Tribulation and right before Jesus returns to finish the wrath and set up His Kingdom.
2. Christ is expected to appear in the air for his Church on the Day of Atonement this year.  If he does not, then we wait for him until the next year that the Day of Atonement or "Yoma, " falls on the Sabbath.. We are quite familiar with the tarry trial. We believe that God keeps his promises. This will follow the prophecy of Habakkuk 2:3 "For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry."

He has tarried because it is not his will "that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." (II Pet 3:9) The final act that the Church must perform is to repent.  The Day of Atonement has not yet been fulfilled and it is the day that Jesus can 'present to himself a Church that is "without spot or wrinkle."

3.  What is more important to our Lord and Savior is for his people to have a Love for the truth because without it, we will be spued out of his mouth.  What a great way for Satan to deceive the church by saying the Lord is coming "soon?"  He cannot keep his word because he is a liar and there is "No truth in him."  If the Church thinks that the Lord can appear on any random day at any time, then it leaves us wide open for any deception that he can work to round up Christians and kill them.  Remember, Jesus said, "many shall come in my name, saying "I am Christ" and shall deceive many."  Go not therefore after them."  If we could go after them and not be deceived, why would the Lord have warned us not to?

I hope this clarifies where we are coming from and why we feel it is such an urgent message.
