End time prophesy and Second Coming

(I am using information from various source, including the DVD “Daniels Timeline” and the Tribulation Timeline, Threats and test during the tribulation done by Lion and Lamb Ministries. The Rest of the study was compiled by me using Scripture.)

Matt 13:26; “And then they shall see the Son of Adam coming in the clouds with much power and esteem.”

There has been so many teachings and interpretations about the end times, that its difficult for the average believer to know what is truth and what is not. I want to assist you to understand the events that will happen in the end times, so that you will be prepared!

1. Can we determine the season for the end times?

I know that all of us have wondered if we are living in the end times/last days. Most of us will answer, yes. The question most of us are afraid to ask is; how long do we have until the second coming?

We all look at the world and how immoral it has become, and know the time must be close. Spiritual leaders of different organizations agree that the season is near.

Luke 8:17 says; “For whatever is hidden shall be revealed, and whatever is secret shall be known and come to light.’

The opinion of many people is that we can not determine the season of His coming, because of two Scriptures: “No man knows the hour or the day” and “He will come as a thief in the night”

I will discuss these Scriptures later in detail, but I do want to tell you that if it is not read and understood in context, it will be to your own destruction.

The Scripture tells us that all things will be revealed – when the time is right…The clues and prophesies has been under our noses for a very long time. We are only able to interpret them now, because the time has come for the Bride to prepare herself.

We were not able to interpret them earlier, because it is not for man to interpret them, but only for Him to show through his Ruach ha Kodesh."

2 Pet 1:19-20; “And we have the prophetic word made more certain, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts, knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture came to be of one’s own interpretation, for prophecy never came by the desire of man, but men of Elohim spoke, being moved by the Set-apart Spirit”

This Scripture show that prophecies were given as a light, and we must use them, not hide them. When you know in your heart, that the time has come, do not rely on our own understanding, but on the guidance of the Set-Apart Spirit. For only by His desire can this prophesies come to light, not by the understanding of a man.

If you study these prophecies, pray for guidance! If you rely on yourself, it will only be confusing. When we hear these prophesies and belief, we have to hold fast to His Word and endure till the end. We also have to understand and believe that EVERYTHING written in the Scriptures is true and inspired by Elohim!

2 Tim 3:16; “All Scripture is breathed by Elohim and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for setting straight, for instruction in righteousness”

Why will He give us so much information on the end times if we are not to use it, but to discard it? Or is it that we just struggle to put the pieces together and see the big picture? Does He want us to understand the prophecies of the end times? Does He expect us to know the season of His return?

Lets look what He says in the Scriptures:

1. Ez 12:25; “For I am יהוה, I speak. And the word which I speak is done. It is no longer deferred. For in your days, O rebellious house, when I speak the word I shall do it,” declares the Master יהוה.”

These prophesies will happen, whether we understand them or not.

2. Hab 2:2-3; “And יהוה answered me and said, “Write the vision and inscribe it on tablets, so that he who reads it runs. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, and it speaks of the end, and does not lie. If it lingers, wait for it, for it shall certainly come, it shall not delay.”

What a powerful verse!! “Let him who reads it run?!” It is an APPOINTED time that WILL not be delayed!

3. Amos 3:7; “For the Master יהוה does no matter unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets.’

Will YHWH EVER go against His word? No!! He will reveal to His prophets what He is about to do. He does not have to – He answers to no one! But because He loves us, He shares the plans He has for us.

4. Hos 4:6; “My people have perished for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I reject you from being priest for Me. Since you have forgotten the Torah of your Elohim, I also forget your children.”

A lot of us will not understand these matters, because we do not have the knowledge. It is our responsibility to study the word and the prophecies! We can not one day tell Him that we did not know.

5. Luke 12:47; “And that servant who knew his master’s desire, and did not prepare,nor did according to his desire, shall be beaten with many stripes. But he who did not know, yet did what deserved flogging, shall be beaten with few. And everyone to whom much is given, from him much shall be demanded. And to whom much has been entrusted, from him much more shall be asked.”

If you know and act not, greater punishment waits for you.

6. Luke 12:56; “Hypocrites! You know to discern the face of the heaven and of the earth, but how is it you do not discern this time?”

He expects of us to discern this time! We must perceive His prophesies.

7. Luke 8:17 says; “For whatever is hidden shall be revealed, and whatever is secret shall be known and come to light.’

8. John 16:13; “But when He comes, the Spirit of the Truth, He shall guide you into all the truth. For He shall not speak from Himself, but whatever He hears He shall speak, and He shall announce to you what is to come. ”

He will reveal ALL truth, not just in part….and He will show us what is to come.

9. Rev 22:6; “And he said to me, “These words are trustworthy and true. And יהוה Elohim of the set-apart prophets has sent His messenger to show His servants what has to take place with speed.”

10. Dan 9:23; “At the beginning of your supplications a word went out, and I have come to make it known, for you are greatly appreciated. So consider the word and understand the vision:”

This vision given to Daniel, was given to us as well. It is a vision concerning the end times. We need to understand this vision.

From the ten Scriptures used above, one can clearly see that we need to know what is going on!!!! We can see there is a prophecy and a vision kept for the end times. The servants of Yehshua must discern the time of His return. It is expected of us.

Now lets look at the two verses that confuses everyone:

1. “For you yourselves know very well that the day of יהוה comes as a thief in the night.” AND
2. “No man knows the day nor the hour”

People use the above verses to claim that we cannot tell if the season of our Messiah’s return is near or not. We will discuss both of them now, but first lets look at this scripture again:

Luke 12:56; “Hypocrites! You know to discern the face of the heaven and of the earth, but how is it you do not discern this time?”

Why will the Messiah in one place say that we need to discern the time and in another place tell us that He will come like a thief in the night?

Lets look at the first verse again and see if it is even quoted correctly:

1 Thes 5:1-6; 1“Now, brothers, as to the times and the seasons, you do not need to be written to. For you yourselves know very well that the day of יהוה comes as a thief in the night. For when they (Not of the light) say, “Peace and safety!” then suddenly destruction comes upon them, as labour pains upon a pregnant woman, and they shall not escape. But you, brothers, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief.

For you are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness. So, then, we should not sleep, as others do, but we should watch and be sober.”

If you read this verse in context, one can clearly see that we are told that we are NOT part of those to whom the coming of the Messiah will overtake like a thief in the night. We are to discern the times and the seasons.

Now let’s look at the second verse that is misunderstood:

Math 24:29-42: Let’s look at the whole passage for this verse. I am going to divide it into segments.

1. Mat 24: 29-31; “And immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give its light, and the stars shall fall from the heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken. And then the sign of the Son of Adam shall appear in the heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth shall mourn, and they shall see the Son of Ad am coming on the clouds of the heaven with power and much esteem. And He shall send His messengers with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together His chosen ones from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.”

These verses clearly refer to His coming? Lets call it subject 1.

2. Mat 24: 32-34; “And learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that the summer is near. So you also, when you see all these, know that He is near, at the doors. Truly, I say to you, this generation shall by no means pass away until all this takes place”

Then He changes the subject. He is not talking about His coming but is giving us a clue as to when the end time prophecy/Tribulation will start to take place. Lets call it subject 2.

3. v 35-36: “The heaven and the earth shall pass away, but My words shall by no means pass away. But concerning that day and the hour no one knows, not even the messengers of the heavens, but My Father only.”

He changes the subject again and is now talking about Judgment day/ the Day of YHWH. That is AFTER the 1000 years of peace, looong fter the Messiah has returned. That is when the heaven and earth shall pass away. He says no one knows the day or the hour concerning THAT day.

This is subject 3.

4. v 37-41: “And as the days of Noah, so also shall the coming of the Son of Adam be. For as they were in the days before the flood, eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and they did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also shall the coming of the Son of Adam be. Then two shall be in the field, the one is taken and the one is left. Two shall be grinding at the mill, one is taken and one is left.”

He is talking about subject 1 again.

V 42: “Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Master is coming.”

This is a clue that refers to the Feast of Trumpets. We do know the season, but we will not know the exact day or hour…

Rev 3:3 “Remember, then, how you have received, and heard. And watch and repent. If, then, you do not wake up, I shall come upon you as a thief, and you shall not know at all what hour I come upon you.”

So please then, receive, hear, watch and repent!!! Wake-up and He shall not come upon you as a thief in the night.

There will come a time of tribulation on this earth, as never been known before. We will be hated and persecuted for His Name sake:

Luk 21:16; “And you shall also be betrayed by parents and brothers and relatives and friends. And some of you shall be put to death.”

This is the time to stand up for what you believe in, no matter what the consequences. We need to warn and teach the people! You will not be welcomed by everyone!

Luke 12:49-59; ““I came to send fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled! But I have an immersion to be immersed with, and how distressed I am until it is accomplished! Do you think that I came to give peace on earth? I say to you, no, but rather division. For from now on five in one house shall be divided, three against two, and two against three – father shall be divided against son, and son against father, mother against daughter, and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law, and daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.” And He also said to the crowds, “When you see a cloud rising out of the west, immediately you say, ‘A storm is coming,’ and so it is. And when you see the south wind blow, you say, ‘There shall be hot weather,’ and it is. Hypocrites! You know to discern the face of the heaven and of the earth, but how is it you do not discern this time? And why, also, do you not judge for yourselves what is right? For, as you go with your opponent to a ruler, try hard along the way to settle with him, lest he drag you to the judge, and the judge deliver you to the officer, and the officer throw you into prison. I say to you, you shall certainly not leave there until you have paid even the last mite.” ”

“And why, also, do you not judge for yourselves what is right?” - This is my request to you! Do not run to you preacher or pastor. First take His word and judge for yourself!

May this Word be fruitful to you. I pray that your eyes will be opened and that His Set-Apart Spirit will guide you in ALL truth.

Ps 2:12 “Kiss the Son, lest He be angry, and ye perish from the way, when His wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in Him.”

The Ant and the 10 Virgins

Proverbs 6:6-11; "Go to the ant, you lazy one! See her ways and be wise,
Which, having no commander, overseer or ruler,
Provides her supplies in the summer, gathers her food in the harvest.
How long would you lay down o lazy one?
When do you arise from your sleep?
A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to lie down;
And your poverty shall come like a prowler..."

We have read this text so many times!!! We all know the teaching on the homiletic level - that we need to work hard, like the ant, and store up goods for times of hardship! And this lesson is very true!!! But there lies a much deeper teaching!
But on the next level, the esoteric level (the secretive/hidden level), we have to dig deeper!

If we continue reading in
Proverbs 6:20-22;"My son, watch over your father's command, and do not forsake the Torah of your mother.
Bind them on your heart always, Tie them around your neck.
When you are walking about, it leads you;
When you lie down, it guards you.
And when you have woken up, It talks to you."

This food we need to store up, is the wisdom and knowledge we receive through our spiritual life! We need to store it for the days to come. Yes, we do use some of it now, when it is going a little tough, we turn to the Word. But there is a time coming....when all supply will be cut of! That time that is coming is the great tribulation!!!

Proverbs 6:23; "For the command is a lamp, And the Torah a light,
and reproof of discipline a way of life,"

Read Math 25- The parable of the 10 virgins.
First notice this parable is about virgins! In Scriptural language a virgin is a person standing in a relationship with YHWH and who has been washed clean of sin!!!
Secondly there are 10 virgins - the number 10 stands for confidence in YHWH.

These 10 were women who had a real steady relationship with the Father and the Messiah!
They are divided into two groups; those who have enough oil in their lamps and those who do not have enough oil and cease to give light!
Five of them where wise and five of them foolish - Five of them were like the wise ants in Proverbs!!! Who stored up enough oil for the time to come.
The five foolish ones were sleeping!!! the same thing addressed in Proverbs 6!!!

At midnight the bridegroom arrived and they went out to meet him!! They entered the wedding reception with Him and the doors were shut!

The other 5 called! But they are told "I know you not!"

We have already learned from proverbs that the light we are carrying is the Torah! We all receive the Word, but you need to live it!! You need oil to keep your light burning and the oil is the Ruach ha Kodesh of YHWH!

Note in Mat 25 and Mark 13 He warns us that we must watch for we do not know when the Master of the house return, be it evening, midnight or in the morning!! But we will know the season. Lets look at:

1 Thes 5
If you read the verses in context, you see that he is telling them, that the day of YHWH comes over the non-believers like a thief in the night! (and Proverbs 6:11)
In verse 4 it says: "But ye brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief".....

We DO NOT know the day or hour, but we will know the season!! (verse one). How do we learn the seasons? By keeping the feasts and looking at the prophesies!!! We need to be awake! Waiting,praying and buying the time out!!! Remember, We are all virgins, but some of us will not enter into the wedding because of a lack of oil and disobedience!

Matt 7: 21-23; "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Master, Master' shall enter into the reign of the Heavens, but he who is doing the desire of My Father in the heavens.
Many shall say to Me in that day, 'Master, Master, have we not prophesied in Your Name, and cast out demons in your Name? And done many mighty works in your Name?'
And then I shall declare to them, 'I never knew you, depart from Me, you who work lawlessness!'"

Be sure to have a lamp and to fill it with oil!!!! Do not serve in lawlessness! But seek wisdom and truth!
And also very important to notice in Proverbs 6 is the fact that the ant has no overseer or commander! We all have spiritual leaders and teacher! But your preacher or pastor is not the one who is going to work out your salvation!!! When judgment comes, you alone are going to answer to YHWH!!! So test everything you are taught to the Scriptures!!! Keeping your lamp full of oil, is only YOUR responsibility!!!

Jude 1:2 ; "Compassion, and peace, and love be increased to you!"

The Marriage Contract

It is important to understand the difference between The Commandments, The Torah (His Teachings), His Convocations and lastly the Law (Sacrificial). The Law was added due to transgressions of the first 3. Yehshua fulfilled of the Law, by being the perfect Sacrifice.

The 10 Commandments in Hebrew is called Ketubah -which means marriage contract. Moses did not break the first set of Tablets because he was mad! No! He broke it, to intercede for the people, because the Father wanted to kill all of Yishrael. But Moses broke the marriage contract, because they have not seen the commandments (requirements) yet, thus giving them a chance to repent. Remember we are only judged by what we know.

The Messiah said that the biggest commandment is Love - because all 10 commandments revolve around love - the Marriage!!!
Rev 22:14 states (in old translation!! new translation wrong) that you have to
1) believe in the Messiah
2) have to obey the commands to be able to eat of the tree of Life.

Once you Believe, you become part of the bride, once you are part of the bride, you have to uphold the marriage contract. Otherwise you might just be another guest at the wedding, and not part of the Bride!

Rev 19: 7-9

“Let us rejoice and be glad and give the glory to Him, for the marriage of the Lamb has come and His bride has made herself ready.” It was given to her to clothe herself in fine linen, bright and clean; for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.
Then he said to me, “Write, ‘Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.’” And he said to me, “These are true words of Yahweh”

Remember, all are not part of the bride. You have to act righteous - keeping the commandments of Yahweh. In the last verse it clearly states there will be the Groom, the Bride and then the guests. Who is the bride then and who will be the guests?

Rev 19:7

"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."

If you want to be part of the Bride, you need to start preparing yourself! The Bride needs to be free of Whoring, without blemish! I will post different reading material on various subjects. If you have a specific question, please email me, and I will post your answer to the best of my ability.
