This week on Marking the End Times, I discuss the imminent return of Christ. As we head into the new year of 2023, I believe it’s important to define that word “imminent” and talk about what it means in regards to the rapture.

In the subscriber-only segment, I answer your questions about Gog and Magog nations, trumpets in Revelation, and the types of rewards you will receive as a Believer once you get to heaven.

Happy New Year to all of our subscribers, and I pray you enjoy this week’s show and it’s a blessing to you!

  2. According to God's perfect word it is impossible for the rapture to happen this year. You must decide to put God's perfect word before anything and everything. You must believe exactly what he said.
    Okay here is the perfect word of the Lord. If you are a Christian you have to believe his word or you are lost:

    By the word of the Lord, we declare to you that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who have fallen asleep. 16FOR THE LORD HIMSELF WILL DESCEND FROM HEAVEN WITH A LOUD COMMAND, with the voice of an archangel, and with the TRUMPET OF GOD, and the DEAD in Christ will be the FIRST(RESURRECTION) TO RISE. 17AFTER THAT, WE WHO ARE ALIVE AND REMAIN WILL BE CAUGHT UP TOGETHER WITH THEM(RAPTURE )in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will always be with the Lord.

    THE ONLY RESURRECTION OF THE CHURCH IS ON THE LAST DAY IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE TRIBULATION. AFTER THE. RESURRECTION THE RAPTURE WILL HAPPEN
    see Revelation ch 20
    See John ch 6 (raised at the last day)
    See Matthew ch 24:29-31
    See Mark ch 13

  3. Why did Jesus die on the cross? Did he die so you want die? Did he die so you wouldn't be persecuted? Did he die so you wouldn't die for your faith? 

    Read What Paul actually said by the anointing of the Holy Ghost. Surely you don't think he died that terrible death and shed his blood so you want be harmed. 

    MANY QUOTE THE FOLLOWING FOR PRE-TRIB RAPTURE. READ CAREFULLY, THE WRATH HE IS TALKING ABOUT IS HELL NOT WRATH ON EARTH. WE ARE HIS WHETHER WE DIE OR LIVE PHYSICALLY

    6Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. 7For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night. 8But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of SALVATION. 9For God hath not appointed us to WRATH(hell), but to obtain SALVATION BY OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, 10 WHO DIED FOR US, THAT, WHETHER WE WAKE OR SLEEP(DIE), we should live together with him. 11Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.

    Here is something else from Luke ch 21 , read it carefully ;

    For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist. 16And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and SOME OF YOU SHALL THEY CAUSE TO BE PUT TO DEATH. 17And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake. 18BUT THERE SHALL NOT AN HAIR OF YOUR HEAD PERISH. 19IN YOUR PATIENCE POSSESS YE YOUR SOULS.

  4. I agree with Paul in Thessalonians 4, I believe what he believed, He believed what the Holy Ghost told him which is very clear. I agree with what Jesus told me as recorded in Matthew 24:29-31 and  also in Mark 13. Paul told me the Dead shall rise FIRST(the resurrection) and moments later the rapture of all Christians on earth as they will be changed and caught up together with them. Jesus told me this would take place when he returns on the last day immediately after the tribulation.
    It's clear as crystal I believe what Jesus told me as recorded in Luke 21 ,talking to the final generation that see the signs all taken together to look up for their redemption draws near. They know they're in the beginning of the tribulation and  Jesus will return cutting it short at the end for their sakes.

  5. 6/17/2024: No, IT (rapture) did NOT happen in 2023 BUT evert year, month, day and hour, minute and second that goes by…..gets a closer ⏰. We stay faithful, focused and witnessing by word & lifestyle while we watch and listen for that HOLY BLOW🎺🎺🎺🎺and HEAVENLY SHOUT 🗣️🗣️🗣️”come up here”! Maranatha, saints. See and meet you in the air🎺⏰🎚️🙏🏾

  9. It's funny how these people are glued to that same old tradition of man, yet they say they're believers of God when they don't even read His word or have a clue about it but are quick to follow man made traditions. Rapture has no article in Scripture, so in reality, you're just lying to yourself and others. It's more like, DECEPTION.
    Unfortunately, soon you will find out the hard way that there was never a rapture. It'll be a little to late by then. Yeshua comes back to us at the 7th trump. That is the hint right there, the 7th trump, the last trunp, God's trump. Very simple, yet you make it so complicated.

  12. Matthew 24: 23-24. Tells you the false christ false teachers deceive the elect! Jesus comes back the last trump! His bride flees into the wilderness! The luke warm christians get marytred. It is given for man once to die! Flesh and blood can't enter the kingdom of God! We will all be changed into a twinkling of a eye! Changed into spirit! New Jerusalem comes to earth! Jesus sits on David's throne! We will rule and reign with him! The meek will inherit the earth! He who loves his life will lose it! He who hates his life will gain it! 1 thessalonians 4: 13-18

  13. I know and read from Mathew 24 that it says the Rapture will occur after the tribulation but I firmly still believe in a pre-trib Rapture or most definitely a mid-trib rapture and my reason for this is I don't think Jesus wants to receive his people more blemished meaning if they were left behind and forced to defend themselves and kill other human beings after not have chosen to take the MOB and this sits heavy on my mind and heart for I too don't want to kill another human being just to defend myself by not taking the MOB !!! Could there be personal private Raptures as well if we were put in this kind of situation which terrifies me and I'm not afraid of anything kind of person so please shed some heartwarming light on this matter that weighs heavy on my heart if you could please !!!

  14. The standard pre-trib view is that when Paul said things like, “we who are alive and remain shall be caught up…” he was using the term “we” because he had been taught the immanency of Christ’s return and he thought he would be alive at the time of the rapture. It is scripturally impossible for Paul to have written the word “we” because he thought he would be alive at the time of the rapture. He indeed may have thought such a thing, but he only wrote exactly what the Holy Spirit told him to write. 1st Peter 1:21 says “For prophecy never had its origin in the mind of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.” Also, the Holy Spirit could teach that the church just simply won’t know when Jesus is coming back, so be ready at all times, but He could not teach that Jesus could come at any minute when He knew full well it wouldn’t be for at least 2,000 years.

  15. Rapture believers already have the Mark of the Beast IN their foreheads. No scripture whatsoever in God's word talks about or supports any kind of rapture in any way. ENJOY WORSHIPPING SATAN WHEN HE ARRIVES CLAIMING TO BE GOD BEFORE CHRIST ARRIVES YOU RAPTURE BELIEVERS! II Thesalonians 2:1-4.

  23. WEDDING RAPTURE READY, DO NOT TAKE MICROCHIP IN RIGHT HAND MARK OF BEAST YOUR NAME REMOVE BOOK OF LIFE, JESUS IS COMING VERY VERY SOON TWINKLE OF EYE,,ANTICHRIST IS APPEARING EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT SOON, WE LIVING END TIME, REPENT PRAYER JESUS FORGIVE ME AND WASH ME BY THE BLOOD OF JESUS AND WRITE MY NAME BOOK OF LIFE BEFORE JESUS RETURN THE SHEKINAH GLORY VISIT THE EARTH

  25. Our LORD Jesus Christ who is GOD Jehovah is a Jealous GOD that will not allow His Bride to be Molested by a demon-possessed Man! Also We are not Appointed onto His Wrath! This is Why We will be Raptured Soon before the Seven Years Tribulation which because it the Seven Years GOD'S Judgements and Wrath Unleashed on this Earth!

  36. USA Will Destroy Itself Inside Out.
    When the Rapture happens, the USA military will be dysfunctional for defense control for itself. Lots of our military believes in Christ, so they will be Raptured. Lots of the commanders captains & the highest military leaders in every level will not be here to follow orders for defense control. It's on Utube that our military worshipping GOD. Marines worshipping GOD, holding hands, repenting confessing serving one another.
    This will dissemble USA after the Rapture

  37. The pretrib and midtrib rapture theories are very new to the Christian church. None of Christianity believed in either "rapture" of these until the late 1870's (Jesuit Franciso Ribera, John Darby, C.I. Scofield, then Hal Lindsey, most of TV evangelism, etc.) Christ will return ONCE; the dead in Christ will rise first and those who remain will be caught up with them in the air. When Christ returns, no one will have any doubt, the whole earth will know it. There is no "secret" rapture where the church just disappears and hangs out with Christ for 3.5 or 7 years while the tribulation takes place on the earth. It is a tortured reading of the whole counsel of scriptures, and antithetical to Christianity throughout history, to argue for a pre-tribulation rapture. We will all have tribulation and go through tribulation. Believers won't suffer God's judgment and wrath, but like New Testament saints and times, all those that desire to live Godly will suffer persecution (and tribulation). To think believers will be removed and avoid the tribulation "sounds" like a relief, but it is false teaching and will lead to disastrous disappointment (including people thinking they have 'missed' the rapture) and falling away when it doesn't happen.

  41. If everyone remembers we had a complete solar eclipse in 2017 and we are going to have another one in 2024. That's seven years apart. In my opinion after the solar eclipse in 2024 it will be undeniable that we are in the end times.

  43. Just around the bend, we know that for sure. We do see AC ascend, so could be Trump or Jared Kushner, who previously formed a new peace treaty for the middle east. I'm thinking Kushner a known ethnic Jew of the Kazarian type. Donald has the mouth of a prophet. But might be Donald but not a Jew par se or is he??? They notoriously hide their identity, so maybe.

  44. Proof of A Pre trib Rapture. Pay Attention to the cloud and Cloud's Jesus appears in and With. Acts chapter 1 verses 9 10 11 Cloud. In Red Luke chapter 21 verses 27 and 28 Jesus is coming in A Cloud the Rapture. In Revelation chapter 1 verse 7 Jesus is coming With the Clouds when he comes back to the MT of Olives the second coming
