About this teaching

Shalom Friends,

What did Paul actually teach about the times and seasons, the Day of the Lord, and the resurrection ?

In this video, we will walk carefully through 1 Thessalonians 4–5 and 2 Thessalonians 2 and allow Paul’s own words to establish the sequence of events.

The apostle told the believers concerning the “times and the seasons” that they were not in darkness for the Day of the Lord to overtake them as a thief (1 Thess. 5:1–5). Why was understanding God’s appointed times so important? And how does this connect with Yah’s biblical calendar and His appointed times in Leviticus 23?

We will also examine one of the most debated subjects in Bible prophecy: the resurrection and the gathering of believers at the coming of Yeshua. In 1 Thessalonians 4, Paul describes the Lord descending from heaven, the dead in Messiah rising, and the living being gathered together with them. Then, in 2 Thessalonians 2, Paul again addresses “the coming of our Lord Yeshua Messiah and our gathering together to Him” and warns believers not to be deceived concerning the timing of the Day.

Rather than beginning with a traditional rapture position and trying to make the Scriptures fit it, we are going to put Paul’s passages together and ask a simple question:

What sequence did Paul himself give us?

We will examine:

• The times and seasons
• The resurrection of the dead
• Our gathering together to Him
• The Day of the LORD
• The warning against deception
• The falling away and the revealing of the man of sin
• Yah’s appointed times in Leviticus 23
• Why believers are called to watch, remain sober, and recognize the season

“But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief.” — 1 Thessalonians 5:4 NKJV

The purpose of this teaching is not to set dates or predict the day or hour. It is to understand the biblical pattern, know Yah’s appointed times, recognize what Paul told the Body of Messiah to watch for, and allow Scripture to interpret Scripture.

Are we truly supposed to be unaware of the times and seasons—or did Paul teach us to understand them?

Join us as we go back to the Scriptures and examine what Paul actually said.

Many Blessings,

Chadwick

Shalom friends. My name is Chadwick Harvey. You have reached Faithful Performance. Thank you so much for joining us tonight as we look at the day of the Lord through the Apostle Paul with 1 Thessalonians 4 and 5 and also 2 Thessalonians 1 and 2. This will give us a great trajectory of what the day of the Lord looks like from the Apostle Paul's lens, providing great understanding about the divine appointments, the resurrection, and the day of the Lord. There is so much debate about these things, but I personally believe if we just read it in the trajectory, he's going to explain to us some of the misconceptions that we have out there.

First and foremost, before we commence with the Apostle Paul, I wanted to go through what Peter warned about in 2 Peter 3:14-18. I think it's very important. Most people might not realize that this scripture is in there. So let's read this scripture and then we'll identify what the apostle is speaking about. In 2 Peter 3:14-18, it says, "Therefore, beloved, looking forward to these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, Yeshua, without spot and blameless, and consider that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation, as also our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given to him, has written to you, as also in his epistles, speaking in them of these things, which in some are hard to understand, which untaught and unstable people twist to their own destruction, as they do also the rest of the scriptures. You therefore, beloved, since you know this beforehand, beware, lest you also fall from your own steadfastness, being led away with the error of the wicked, but grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Messiah Yeshua Hamashiach. To Him be the glory, both now and forevermore. Amen and amen and amen."

So my friends, Peter, in his second epistle, and again, this is the final chapter of the epistle, he really warns us. First of all, he gives Paul credit: "our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given to him." He doesn't discount Paul. What he's trying to say is to understand Paul through a Torah-based gospel lens. If one is not familiar with that terminology, Paul was a rabbi. He was a Jewish believer, but he was a rabbi. He knew the five books of Moses very well. He was a scholar under Gamaliel, as we all read in the book of Acts. So he was very familiar with the concept and the understanding and the knowledge that we have to have through the Torah. And then obviously, he would have known the instructions of Messiah through Peter, through James, through the ones that he met with after Yeshua ascended to heaven. So we have to look at Paul through Peter's lens as well, through John's lens, through James, through the Torah. We just can't take Paul for just Paul. Paul was writing for us to understand these concepts in the Torah, the Prophets, the Psalms, also the Gospels. And if we can't read him through that lens, then here comes replacement theology, here comes all of these different isms and schisms and all of these things that we have with these things that people are going to be, what Peter is saying, caught as a thief in the night, or not as a thief in the night, but twisted to their own destruction, and to the rest of the scriptures as well, which they will be caught as a thief in the night, as Paul will tell us in 1 Thessalonians 5.

So this is truly important, my friends. He's expecting us, Peter and Paul, but Paul is also expecting us to have the knowledge of Yeshua, have the knowledge of the Father's instructions in Torah, Prophets, Psalms, so that we can relate to Paul. Because we cannot relate to Paul if we do not have the education or the knowledge of the Torah, the first five books of the Bible. Is that what that is? The Prophets, the Psalms, and also what Yeshua wrote in the Gospel account. There's just no way to understand what the apostle is trying to say. And we're going to go through that here next. But look at what he says again, and I'll read this again, it's very important. He says, "As also our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given to him," he's given him credit, "has written to you, as also in his epistles, speaking in them these things in which some are hard to understand, which untaught and unstable people twist to their own destruction." That's very important what Peter is saying here about the Apostle Paul. We can't take Paul out of context to our own destruction, is what Peter says, as they also do the rest of the scriptures. So Peter makes it very clear: we have to be educated to understand Paul. We have to, because the way he writes, I mean, he continues to just go on and go on and go on, you know, so to speak. And we have to break him down with the commas, if you will, so that we can have the understanding of what the apostle was trying to tell us, because he's very educated. He's very smart. He's very wise in the knowledge and the wisdom that God gave him. So we have to understand it from that lens, and that's what we talk about on the channel of Lot. We've got to look at it from a Torah-based gospel. If we don't understand the education before we get to the Apostle Paul in the Bible, then we're going to take him out of context, and welcome to replacement theology, where Peter says, "to our own destruction." Just like we twist the other scriptures as well. So truly, this is very important what Peter warned about. He gives him credit. He's a brother. He all of these beautiful things, but he's just giving us a check. Just a check that we just can't read Paul without the education of the Torah.

Now, as we go forward into the lesson tonight, this is truly important. One of the reasons I wanted to do this tonight is we all know that we're going into the feast days: the Feast of Trumpets, Yom Kippur, the Feast of Tabernacles. And as we all know on this channel, the Feast of Trumpets will begin the day of the Lord when He returns. We're going to go through that if one doesn't understand it. So normally, I go through these videos from Genesis to Revelation. But tonight, we're going to be reversed. We're going to look at it and we're going to try to explain, if someone's on the channel that might not know this information, the importance of that education. So I'm not going to start teaching from the calendar and the days. I'm going to go to Paul first, and then we'll backtrack to show everybody the importance of what Paul is speaking about with all of these things.

So again, we're headed into the Feast of Trumpets, the feast days, here in a couple nights. And I think it's very important for all of us to understand what the day of the Lord looks like, because this is the season to understand that so we can relate and also the prophecies. We're going to go through Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel during the 10 days, the 10 days of awe, so that we can have an understanding as we go through this season of celebrating and proclaiming and being intimate with our King and the expectation of what He's going to do on His divine appointments or His feast days in Leviticus 23.

So without further ado, let's go through 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, and then we'll go through the trajectory through chapter 5, and then also 2 Thessalonians 1 and also verse 2 as well.

Okay, so 1 Thessalonians 4:13 through 18. Let's look at what it says: "But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope. For if we believe that Yeshua died and rose again, even so Yahweh will bring with Him those who sleep in Yeshua. For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means be preceded by those who are asleep."

So we'll stop right there. Paul's trying to explain to the Thessalonian church that some of them felt that they were missing the day of the Lord because some people had passed away. And he's saying, "No, if they passed away, they're going to rise first with us at the coming of the Lord." So we've got to wait and understand what the coming of the Lord is and what that means as far as the resurrection is concerned as well. And as we keep reading, he's going to keep explaining to us. We're not going to have to understand. He's going to keep explaining to us. We don't have to guess the understanding of what the apostle was truly speaking about of the day of the Lord, the resurrection, and all of these beautiful tie-ins.

"For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with a trumpet of God." Okay, let me stop there, my friends. This is literal. This is not symbolic. We've got to quit taking the Bible symbolically until it tells us to take it symbolically, like the book of Daniel, the book of Revelation. And even when it's symbolic, it's going to give you the interpretation in the book of Daniel or in the book of Revelation. So again, we can't just symbolize this. When he says "the trumpet of God," that is pointing to one thing. That's pointing to the Feast of Trumpets. That's pointing to only one feast day, and that is the Feast of Trumpets, which Yeshua will have to fulfill at His second coming events. He must fulfill it as the Jewish Messiah. So that's super important. So this is talking about the Feast of Trumpets when He returns. And that is from the calendar and the days. And we'll go back and we'll show you that with the times and the seasons as well.

"And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore, comfort one another with these words."

So, we need to comfort one another with these words that once Yeshua returns for second coming events on the Feast of Trumpets, that's literal in 1 Thessalonians 4, then He's going to get the dead first, rise up, and then we will come with them afterwards, and we'll meet the Lord in the air. You don't see any mention of this happening during the seven-year tribulation. He doesn't mention the tribulation in here at all. He just does not. He mentions what he mentions about the day of the Lord. So remember, this whole process of this chapter and the next chapter and the next book of 2 Thessalonians is a trajectory of the day of the Lord. And He's going to explain all of these things to us so that we can comprehend them.

So again, in 1 Thessalonians 4, we're finding out that the dead and the ones who are on the earth will rise up and meet the Lord in the air at the trumpet sound of God, which points directly to the Feast of Trumpets.

So, as we go forward, 1 Thessalonians 5:1-11. This is the day of the Lord scripture as well. And look at what it says: "Now, again, this is a continuation of 1 Thessalonians 4. As we all know, there were no chapter breaks. And when Paul was writing, he didn't write 1 Thessalonians 4 or 1 Thessalonians 5. It was just a continuing epistle. So they added the chapter breaks after the fact. So this is not something that's a new something or a new deal. It's the same understanding throughout the epistle. It's not according to the chapter breaks. And let's look at what the apostle says: "But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you. For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. For when they say peace and safety, then sudden destruction comes upon them as labor pains upon a pregnant woman, and they shall not escape. But you, brethren, Thessalonians, you faithful believers, are not in darkness, so that this day, which is the day of the Lord, should overtake you as a thief. You are all sons of the light, and sons of the day; we are not of the night, nor of darkness."

So, let me go back through this. My friends, I've said this before. When a Christian believer reads this, if they don't understand what Paul is saying here, there's really no reason to read the rest of the scripture because they don't understand what it's saying. I didn't either before I got educated as well. But concerning the times and the seasons, if we don't understand that, let's close the book and let's go get educated so that we can understand what the Apostle Paul is speaking about. Because there's only one thing that he is speaking about when he says this. But concerning the times and the seasons. Think about this. What is time? God is time. He's the one who makes time. What are His times? Well, His times is the biblical calendar. That's His times, everybody. It's not the Gregorian calendar or none of that. His time and His time is the calendar only. Paul would have, of course, understood this. This is one of the reasons he was raised up to say what he said in 1 Thessalonians 5. So again, concerning the times and the seasons, the time is the calendar, the seasons is the moed. And that is very clear if you go do your homework. In Hebrew, it's called the appointed times. It's called moedim. Even in the Greek, they got it right. This appointed times. I'm going to go through that here next when we look at the Greek as well. So again, if one's not familiar with the seasons, the divine appointments of Yeshua that the Father put in place on His calendar, then we're not going to understand what the apostle is writing about. We're just not. I'm not, you're not, we're not. We've got to be educated and have knowledge to understand what the apostle is speaking of.

So again, 1 Thessalonians 4 is telling you about the Feast of Trumpets, literally the trumpet of God. And then Paul follows that up in 1 Thessalonians 5, which is a continuation of the epistle. I'm just quoting the chapter. But concerning the times and the seasons, right after he said the Feast of Trumpets, he said, "concerning them, the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you because the Thessalonians knew what was going on with the times and the seasons. For you yourselves know, Thessalonians, that the day of the Lord," that's what he's talking about. He's not talking about the tribulation. He's not talking about any of that. He's talking about the day of the Lord, which begins on the Feast of Trumpets. So it comes as a thief in the night. Wow. What is he relating a thief in the night to? Understanding the times and the seasons and the day of the Lord. What's the day of the Lord? It starts on the Feast of Trumpets, and then there's a 10-day war with Yeshua coming down, fighting the ungodly, and really destroying anyone who does not believe in Him and keep His commandments. So that's a 10-day war to the Feast of Yom Kippur. That begins the day of the Lord, or that begins the 7,000th year, the seventh day to the eighth day. A thousand-year reign begins on the Feast of Trumpets. But the first 10 days are gloomy darkness. I mean, go read what Zephaniah said. Go read what Joel said in the Bible. This is not going to be pretty for the inhabitants on this earth. And we're going to get to that here as the apostle continues forward with the trajectory that we're on.

But my friends, this is totally amazing what Paul is writing here. He's telling you in 1 Thessalonians 4 that the Lord will come down with a trumpet. Feast of Trumpets, trumpet sound. And then the dead in Christ will rise first. Then those who remain will be caught up with Him to meet Him in the clouds before He pours out His wrath on this earth. So again, we've got to look at it. He's talking only about the day of the Lord. He's not talking about any tribulation terminology in these chapters. So, just taking what he's saying. Because there's a lot of confusion going on with what the day of the Lord is, what the tribulation is, and I'm going to explain that to you as we continue.

But as we continue right now, "But concerning the times and the seasons, concerning the calendar and the feast days and the Feast of Trumpets, on the feast days, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you. For you yourselves know perfectly well that the day of the Lord comes, what? As a thief in the night. So those who don't understand the times and the seasons, thief in the night, is what Paul is saying. For peace and safety, and then sudden destruction comes upon them as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. Every biblical prophet went through that understanding. Isaiah 66, the book of Jeremiah, everybody talks about the pregnant pain, the labor pains, the tribulation, and they shall not escape." That's very important what Paul says. If we don't understand the times and the seasons, we're not going to understand the day of the Lord. Peace and safety. Ain't life grand? Everybody's good. Then labor pains upon a pregnant woman, and they will not escape, according to the Apostle Paul, because why? They don't understand. There's no knowledge. Everybody's got their Jesus. Everybody's celebrating the wrong way. No one knows what's going on. The Jewish people don't have Yeshua. They have no clue either. And here we go. Here we go with the destruction part of it. This is the day of Adonai. Now, this is not the tribulation. This is the seven-year tribulation, the day of the Lord. That's where it is. If one's not familiar with that, Feast of Trumpets, just like Paul said in 1 Thessalonians 4, He returns on the trumpet of God. Amen and amen. He pours out His wrath for 10 days, and that's when they will not escape. It's not the tribulation He's talking about. If one's not familiar with that prophetic understanding, you've got seven years of tribulation. Paul's never mentioned that in this chapter or the next chapter or the other book either. We've got to understand seven years. It starts on the Feast of Trumpets. It ends on the Feast of Trumpets. Seven exact years. And then the day of the Lord. So seven years, trumpets, the trumpets on the Shmita cycle. And then the day of the Lord for 10 days of gloominess, darkness, sword, fire, destruction, seven bowls on the 10 days of awe will be poured out according to the book of Revelation. My friends, we've got to understand this to get people educated with this, because we're going to get further into it, and you're going to see it's a continuation of what the apostle is warning about.

So again, "concerning the times and the seasons, you have no need that I should write to you. For you yourselves know perfectly well that the day of the Lord will come upon those unbelievers and the people without knowledge as a thief in the night. For when they say peace and safety, then sudden destruction comes upon all of them who has no knowledge of this, and they will not escape, because there will be labor pains upon a pregnant woman. But you, faithful believers, all of you out there, and all of the Thessalonians back then, are not in darkness, so that this day, what day? The day of Antichrist? No. The day of Adonai, the day of Yeshua, 10 days of awe, should overtake you as a thief. You are all sons of light, all of you, and sons of the day, but the ones who don't understand this, we are not of the night nor of the darkness."

So, here's the confirmation in both translations as far as the languages are concerned. When we look at the Hebrew, of course, that's the moed, is what it's called. The set appointed times, which is what Yeshua has fulfilled on His first coming events and what He will fulfill on His second coming events. If one doesn't have that understanding, that's okay. I'll try to explain it to the best of my ability. Passover, He was crucified. Every gospel account will tell you that. Unleavened Bread, He was put in the tomb. Every gospel account will tell you that. The Feast of Firstfruits is the resurrection. Paul himself called Yeshua, he didn't call him Easter, he called him the Feast of Firstfruits, he called him the firstfruits of mankind. So let's get this straight. So He fulfilled that as well. Why? Because He had to. He must, as the Jewish Messiah. 50 days later, it's called Shavuot in the Bible. In the Greek, it's called Pentecost. And there you go. That's when He poured His Holy Spirit out upon all of mankind. So my friends, Yeshua had to do this. No doubt, to be the Jewish Messiah, to be the Son of God, He had to fulfill these prophecies in the Bible. They're divine appointments from Yah for His Son Yeshua to fulfill at His first coming events and His second coming events. It's really just totally remarkable and fascinating and amazing what the Father has done. But we have got to have knowledge about this. And if we don't, thief in the night is what Paul will tell all of us.

So again, He fulfilled the first four to the exact day, hour, and detail of the ceremony. Leviticus 23, Exodus 12, foreshadows on forward, and go read the gospel accounts. That's why it's totally amazing when Christians read the Gospels, they can't understand this because it's right there in front of you. You know, when you read the Bible, when you read the Gospel accounts, and that lets all of us know, all of you know, and all of me know that the Christians aren't reading the Gospel accounts. They're just going to church with a lemon cake and a coffee and getting a motivational speech. And ain't life grand? And we're going to see how that goes as this trajectory of this world keeps falling into the tribulation here whenever God appoints it. So, we've got to understand that.

But the Hebrew, and the Greek, when we look at the Greek language, I can't pronounce the Greek, I don't really study the Greek, I'm just proving a point here. It's the set appointed times. So the Greek got it right in the New Testament. It's the set apart times. My friends, what does that mean to us? It means that our Savior is set apart. He wants us to be set apart, and He wants us to know the set apart times. And according to Paul, if we do not, it's going to be bad. I mean, just trust what Paul says. Don't listen to me. I'm just reading it to you and trying to explain it to the best of my ability.

So again, let's, as we continue forward, he says, "Therefore, my brethren, do not sleep as others do, but let us watch and be sober. For those who sleep sleep at night, and those who get drunk get drunk at night. But let those who are of the day be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet, the hope of salvation. For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Yeshua, the Messiah, who died for us, that whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with Him. Amen. Therefore, comfort each other and edify one another, just as you are doing."

My friends, he's only talking about one thing. When he says, "For God did not appoint us to wrath," everybody's like, "Oh, that's the tribulation." No, he's not talking about the tribulation in these scriptures. He's talking about the day of the Lord. That's it. He's not talking about any tribulation in here. He never mentions tribulation in here. The seven-year tribulation, the time of Jacob's trouble. He said this: "For God did not appoint us to wrath." What wrath? The day of the Lord. Those 10 days of awe that people don't understand that are very important. Christianity cannot show me or you this. They just do not have it in their theology, and that's why it's so dangerous. They just don't have it. They can explain this to you. When you ask somebody about the second coming of Yeshua, that's a Christian believer, they can't, they don't even know this terminology. They can't even understand this because they weren't taught this. I wasn't either. But we've got to humble ourselves. We've got to lower our pride, lower our egos, Christians and Jews, and understand what is the proper theology and eschatology, because we look like a bunch of idiots out here, in my personal opinion, because no one knows what's going on. Christians and the Jewish people don't know anything about what's going on with the time that we're living in right now. And this is super important. I love both parties, but it's time to get real with both parties and say, "Hey, listen. Let's provoke them to jealousy." If you love them, if you love them, if you don't love them, then okay, let them go ahead. But if you do love them, then we've got to understand to teach them the right way once we get that education and once we give that knowledge or share with them or whatever term you want to use there.

But my friends, Paul is not talking about any seven-year tribulation in this process. He's only talking about the day of Adonai, the day of the Lord. Look at what he says in 1 Thessalonians 4:13. He's talking about the Feast of Trumpets. That's the day of the Lord. He's talking about the day of the Lord through that. He's talking about the day of the Lord in 1 Thessalonians 5. He's not talking about anything with the seven-year tribulation period. And then he says, "For God did not appoint us to wrath." He's talking about the day of the Lord wrath, the 10 days of awe. And if people don't understand that, that's those 10 days between the Feast of Trumpets and the Feast of Yom Kippur. And that goes into a lot of things that we're going to discuss over this feast season. I mean, the Feast of Trumpets, we're going to go through a lot of this stuff, not all Paul. We're going to go through all of these idioms that's going to be on here. One of them is called the hidden day. Yom HaKaseh, is what it's called in Hebrew. Why is that important? Because you want to be hidden in the day of the Lord, not the day of Antichrist. I mean, so many people have the spirit of fear with the Antichrist. I've never seen such in my life as believers in Yah. We've got the spirit of fear as the church, the spirit of fear as the Jewish people. We don't understand. We think it's the redemption now. Everybody wants to be raptured now. Why? Don't you realize the harvest is plentiful out there and the laborers are few? Don't you realize that you're going to be here during the seven-year tribulation? Paul's going to show you that as we continue to go forward. It's time to get in the game. Get in the game with your spiritual gifts and with the Great Commission and let's do our part in God's kingdom instead of letting you be raptured. What a selfish person that would be. What a selfish person that would be. Y'all never was very like that. Yeshua wasn't like that. No one's like that in the Bible. They all wanted to do their part in God's kingdom. And we have to do the same things, my friends. We've got to have that same apocalyptic mindset that Yeshua had, that Paul had, that the disciples had. Surely the biblical prophets had. Goodness gracious. Go read the biblical prophets. You think they were concerned? No. They wanted to do their part and they wanted to uplift everybody, instead of being selfish and, "Hey, I want to get out of here because I'm so holy." No. The Christians are not holy right now who are celebrating Christmas, Easter, and Sunday Sabbath. They're not holy at all. So, while even if there is a pre-trip rapture, they would not be raptured because they're going to be put through the fire, and we're going to go through that scripture as well.

So again, this is all nonsense what people are teaching out here. Nonsense that all this pre-trip stuff and get me out of here and, "Oh, I'm so holy." No, you're not. If you're celebrating Christmas, Easter, and Sunday Sabbath, you're just not. You're in paganism. You're in replacement theology. And you will be put through the fire in the seven-year tribulation to get purified, to get on the calendar and on the days, the Sabbath and all these beautiful divine appointments that Yah and Yeshua wants you to be on and wants me to be on, wants the one new body and the one new man to be on. So when He says, "For God did not appoint us to wrath," He is pointing to the day of the Lord. I think that's pretty obvious. He's not pointing to any seven-year tribulation because He doesn't mention the tribulation.

Now, as we go forward, my friends, and look at what Paul says before we go forward, look at what he says at the end of the chapter in verse 11: "Therefore, comfort each other and edify one another, just as you are doing." And that's what we all need to do is edify the Christians. Edify the Jewish people if you love them, to edify them, just like Paul did. I mean, go read the Apostle Paul's trajectory throughout his ministry. He went to the Jew first, they rejected. He went to the Gentile, went back to the Jews. He didn't care if he was rejected or not, because he loved God. And he wanted people to be educated. He wanted people to have eternal life, both Jew and Gentile, or in this case, Jew and Christian, if you want to call it, because our brothers on both sides, like we always say on this channel, are out of alignment in their own way because of religion. And we've got to get back to the word of God, which is the Torah, the Prophets, and the Psalms, and the New Covenant, and the Gospel accounts. And people are going to be offended because that's what Messiah said. He offended everybody. Prophets offended everybody. Moses surely offended everybody, still does. And also the Apostle Paul offended people. You know, the disciples offended people. So, who cares what people think? Let them be offended. Let them stay offended if they don't like this, because I'd rather have them offended than not to go search this out for themselves. And like I've always said, I told this to somebody the other day who was a very good friend of mine. I said, "I would rather you hate me and me tell you the truth than you love me and, 'Okay, awesome, you're doing great.'" No, that's just not who I am. You know, everybody else go to Joel Osteen. He'll give you a good motivational speech, or any of these prosperity teachers. Go ahead, and you'll be caught as a thief in the night for sure because they don't know what's going on.

2 Thessalonians 1, as we continue the trajectory of what Paul is showing us. "We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is fitting, because your faith grows exceedingly in love." Okay, so let me back up. I'm sorry. Let me back up and take a quick breath because I should set this up. So Paul, when he wrote the first letter, he sent it to them. Now he's following up as a second letter with the same understanding but really more education for all of us to understand as we look at the resurrection, the day of the Lord, and the confirmation that we are reading 1 Thessalonians 4 and 5 the correct way.

So before we compound to thank Yah always for you, brethren, as it is fitting, because your faith grows exceedingly. Amen. And the love of every one of you all abounds towards each other. So that we ourselves boast of you among the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that you do endure. He's talking to the Thessalonians back 2,000 years ago, which is manifest evidence of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you also suffer. Since it is a righteous thing with God to repay with tribulation those who trouble you, and to give you who are troubled rest with us when the Lord Yeshua is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels.

So again, he's talking to only the Thessalonians about the tribulation that they were going through and what he wanted the other people who were persecuting them to go through their tribulation. He's not talking about the seven-year tribulation here. He's talking to the Thessalonians who lived 2,000 years ago. So we've got to understand the proper understanding of who he's speaking with, which is manifest evidence of the... Okay, excuse me, I've already read that. And again, verse seven, "and to give those who trouble you rest with us when the Lord Yeshua is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels." So again, he's talking about the day of the Lord in flaming fire, which is the day of the Lord, taking vengeance on those who do not know God and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah. These shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power when He comes in the day of the Lord to be glorified in His saints and to be admired among all those who believe, because our testimony among you was believed.

So Paul is trying to uplift the Thessalonians, encouragement. They've gone through tribulation that he wants the other people to go through tribulation because they persecuted them. And he says that He's going to give you those who are troubled rest when we, when the Lord Yeshua is revealed from heaven. Amen. With His mighty angels. Again, when is that? Of course, it's the day of the Lord on the Feast of Trumpets forward. In flaming fire, taking vengeance on those who do not know God and those who do not obey Him. Those shall be punished with everlasting destruction. Hello, Christianity. From the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power when He comes in the day. What is that day? Of course, the day of the Lord, not the tribulation. To be glorified in His saints and be admired among those who believe, because our testimony among you was believed. Amen and amen and amen.

So again, Paul is only talking about the day of the Lord here. He's not talking about the seven-year tribulation, the Antichrist, and none of that stuff yet. He's about to, but not right now. He's tied all this in to the day of the Lord, which we again win on the Feast of Trumpets, 10-day war, judgment, Isaiah 63, Isaiah 34, really throughout all of the scriptures of the day of the Lord prophecies, which we're going to go through during those 10 days here coming up. We're going to, I want to show you that as well, because of again, a lot of misunderstanding with that as well.

So, as we continue forward, my friends, we'll go to 2 Thessalonians 2. This is where it really gets really good. But we have to understand it from 1 Thessalonians 4, 5, and then 1 Thessalonians. We've got to take him in the trajectory of both letters to understand what he's saying. So now he's going to speak about the day of the Lord and the resurrection. And then look at what the apostle says.

"Now, brethren, concerning, remember what he said in 1 Thessalonians 5, concerning. Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah and our gathering together to Him, we ask you not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as it is from us, as though the day of the Lord, the day of Messiah, had come."

So, what is he trying to say, my friends? This is getting into the resurrection, or what some people call the rapture, which is a false theology. This is about the resurrection. Look at what Paul says. This is Paul talking now. "Brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord," which is on the Feast of Trumpets, the day of the Lord, "and our gathering together to Him." There is your rapture. There's your resurrection at one time, not seven years. Paul did not say He's coming on... the Lord Yeshua on the day of the Lord, but seven years before that the believer is going to be raptured. He never said that. And if he were, he would have said that. How detailed this is. "Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Yeshua, on the Feast of Trumpets, the day of the Lord, not the tribulation, and our gathering together to Him." My friends, we all know the English language. When it says "and" in there, that means they're both together as one. In the Hebrew, it's a "vav" or a "waw" combined. Don't separate. Don't divide. Rightly divide the word of truth. We've got to understand this. "Now, brethren, concerning the coming of Yeshua, the day of the Lord on the Feast of Trumpets for His wrath for 10 days, and our gathering to Him." What does he mean by that? It means when He returns on the Feast of Trumpets with the trumpet of God, and the dead rise first, and the believers who are with Him and keeping the commandments go with Him, that He's going to pour out His wrath for 10 days, everybody. And you'll be hidden in the pavilion of the Lord, like King David said in Psalm 27, like Zephaniah says in the book of Zephaniah, like Isaiah says in Isaiah 26:3. They said Yom HaKaseh, the hidden day, the day of the Lord. You want to be hidden in that day. What day? Because of the wrath that He's going to pour out. He never talks about the Antichrist. He never talks about the seven-year tribulation. Isaiah doesn't. Zephaniah doesn't. David doesn't. He said we'll be hidden in that day. And we have to have the knowledge to understand King David, Zephaniah, Isaiah, Paul. And if we don't, then one is in very much danger of being caught as a thief in the night if they're on that earth at this time.

So again, whether we're here or not, we can all sit here and debate that all night. But what about your children? What if you're gone and your children are here? Don't you want your children to understand this? Don't you want your grandchildren to understand this? I mean, it's not just about us. If we can get the focus off of ourselves, it's about mankind to understand when He comes for the day of the Lord. I could care less about the Antichrist. The day of the Lord, when He comes, you want to be hidden in that day. You want to be Yom HaKaseh. You'll be hidden in that day in the pavilion of the Most High because of what Yeshua is going to do on this earth. What is He going to do? "Who is this who comes from Edom, who comes from Bozrah with garments stained with blood?" And Yeshua says, "It is I. I'm coming from My wrath, My day of vengeance, and My garments are stained with all of their blood." Amen and amen and amen.

So, my friends, you want to be hidden in that day of Adonai. The Antichrist. Who cares about that? Everybody get out of the spirit of fear of the Antichrist. Goodness, Jewish people and Christians, I've never seen anything like it in my life. Where is the faith in Yah? Where's the Holy Spirit? Where's everything that He has taught us to have? Not a spirit of fear, but of power through the Holy Spirit, Yeshua, the Father, a sound mind. Okay, that's what we've got to have. Not all this spirit of fear. "Please get me out of here because I'm scared of the Antichrist. I'm scared of the beast kingdom. I'm scared of the mark and all this stuff." Well, be scared then. But if you're not educated, then I guess you people should be scared because that's what it's going to be. The fear will come upon them and they'll have heart attacks. They'll have, I mean, people are going to fall away just like the apostle is about to tell us.

So, that being said, let's turn back to the scriptures here. "Now, brethren, you and me, all of the believers, concerning the coming of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, on the Feast of Trumpets to pour out His wrath for 10 days, and our gathering to Him, which is one event, we ask you not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as a lot of people are, as it is from us, as though the day of the Messiah had come."

So, they were shaken. Some people said the day of the Lord has already come. And Paul's saying, "No, the day of Adonai has not come." And He's trying to relate to them so that He could comfort them, that He could edify them. I mean, this is truly amazing what Paul was writing here. Verse number three: "Let no one deceive you by any means." Hello, didn't Yeshua say that in the very beginning of Matthew 24? And guess what? All of our brothers, all of our Christian friends and our Jewish friends, or not all of them. I'm sorry, I repent of that. Not that's that's wrong. Most of them are deceived right now. And we've got to help them understand these things. "Let no one deceive you by any means. For that day," what day? The day of the Lord, "will not come unless the falling away comes first." My goodness, look around. "And the man of sin is revealed." How about that? "The son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God and that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God." Think about that, my friends. That is super important to digest responsibly. "Let no one deceive you by any means." By any means. Yeshua said that in the very beginning. Do not be deceived. Do not be deceived. Do not be deceived. Christians and Jews deceived.

So again, we've got to listen and we've got to read. "For that day of the Lord on the Feast of Trumpets, the hardest 10 days of wrath, will not come unless the falling away comes first," which you're seeing right now, of course, with mankind, including Jews and Christians, "and the man of sin is revealed." So the Antichrist has to be revealed before the day of the Lord and the resurrection can occur. All right? Let me make this point really quick. The Antichrist is not some European that's just going to be deceiving and whatever. He's a military commander like Nebuchadnezzar. Please go read Daniel 4 and understand the statue, understand the numbers, understand all of these things. The area that Nebuchadnezzar came out of. He's going to be a military commander just like Nebuchadnezzar, but worse. Just like Yeshua said, the worst time in human history, everybody, is what is going to happen in the seven-year, the time of Jacob's trouble, the seven-year tribulation period. And Daniel 4 gives you a great understanding of that. Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.

Okay, so I want to make a quick point on this that's mentioned in the scripture right here. Luke 10:18. I put it in there for a reason. "Why Luke like lightning from heaven?" Goodness, what does that mean? Well, we all know that Yeshua says that as the east is from the west, the lightning is from the east to the west. That's His one of His signs that He is returning. It's not a vertical descent. We've got to understand what He's trying to tell us. What is He trying to tell us? Well, according to Paul, at the three and a half year mark, if we understand the timeline that goes into other understandings, all of Satan is going to be thrown out of heaven at the midway point of the tribulation. That's Revelation 12. Daniel 12 goes through that as well. He's going to be thrown out of heaven. Daniel 8 goes through that as well with a third of his angels with him. You know, all of these things. What does that mean? That means that when Satan's thrown out of heaven at the three and a half year mark, according to all the scriptures, he's going to indwell the Antichrist for sure. And he's going to, or I'm sorry, yeah, Satan's going to indwell the Antichrist for sure. And he's going to go into the temple and put himself as God, showing that he himself is God. And guess what? Some of the Jews and the Christians are going to say, "Yes, there's our Savior." Because they don't understand the times and the seasons. They don't understand what the situation is. They don't understand they've been deceived. Christians like, "There's my rapture. I saw lightning from heaven. That's Yeshua." No, it's not. The first one's the evil one, everybody. And then Yeshua is going to come from the east to the west.

This is super important. I don't think you're too far away from that here in the next couple of years, maybe this shmita. You don't know. You just have to pay attention to the times and the seasons. But who's to say that some Christians and some Jews won't be deceived by this? Of course, they will. Because think about it, Christians are looking for their rapture for seven years. We're in the three-and-a-half-year mark. It's been terrible across the world, the book of Revelation. And then you see Satan fall like lightning from heaven. All that's Yeshua because they're not reading, they're not understanding the times or the seasons. They don't know the prophetic timeline. And they're going to go in there and bow down, take the mark of the beast, and it's going to be hell. That's what the Bible says. If you take the mark, you go into the lake of fire. So again, this is why we should all be a little bit more zealous about these things and understand them. If people don't want to take that as zealous, that's on them. That's on them because they have no clue how to help other people understand these things. And people aren't reading, is what I've come to understand. Jews are not reading the Bible. Christians aren't reading the Bible. And we have no clue, as Jews and Christians as a whole, what's going on with the prophetic timeline of God. And again, people are going to be caught as a thief in the night. And I don't want to see anybody caught as a thief in the night, a Jew or a Gentile. But unfortunately, that will be the case because of what the scriptures do say.

So again, let's read 2 Thessalonians in order. Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, and that means one event, and the gathering to Him, just one event on the Day of the Lord's Feast of Trumpets. We ask you not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or word or letter as if the day of the Lord has come. Let no one deceive you, my Christian friends. Let no one deceive you, my Jewish friends. That's what the Jewish Messiah said in Matthew 24. For the day, the Day of the Lord will not come, and the resurrection will not come, unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed. That's very simple to understand if we read it in order. The son of God, or that is called God, or that is temple of God, showing himself as God. Do you not remember that when I was still with you, I told you these things? And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in his own time. For the mystery of lawlessness, lawlessness not following the Torah, is already at work. Obviously, only he who now restrains will do so until he is taken out of the way. I'm not going to get into that because that's another debatable issue, but that's, in my opinion, the Archangel Michael in Daniel 12. If you go read Daniel 12, it'll show you he'll stand up out of the way. Three and a half years, it will be hell on this earth. And that's why he is the restrainer. It's the Archangel Michael. He's the only one that deals with Satan throughout the Bible. It's the Archangel Michael. He is that. So, please forgive me, I did go there. I didn't mean to go there. But just understand that's the proper understanding. Daniel 12, if you read it, the Archangel Michael, who stands over the sons of Israel. What does that mean? He's standing over the sons of Israel right now, spiritually speaking. Who cares about the Iron Dome and all that stuff, man-made stuff? He's the one who's standing over the sons of Israel in Daniel 12. And when he stands up out of the way, go read the rest of Daniel 12, and it's the three and a half years. So, he's going to stand up out of the way, and then it's going to be Nebuchadnezzar. That's what's going to happen. The military commander coming down to deal the business to the Middle East and also to Judah. Please realize what is going on in the Holy Bible with the prophecies.

All right, let me see where I left off. And the lawless one will be revealed. Excuse me, let me get myself out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed when the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming, the Day of the Lord. No tribulation language in this whole teaching right here in Paul. None of it in 1 Thessalonians 4-5, 2 Thessalonians 1 and 2. Only the Day of the Lord language. So, at the brightness of His coming, the coming of the lawless one is according to the working of, of course, Satan, when he's thrown down for three and a half years. He goes himself into the temple, shows himself as God. Here comes the beast, the mark of the beast. If you read Revelation, the last three and a half years only is when that will be. And here you go with the deception with the Jews and the Christians, man. You know, with the Islamists and whoever else you want to include in that, they're going to all bow down just like everybody bowed down to Nebuchadnezzar. So, friends, there is a great correlation. People, if you just go read Daniel 4 and go read what it says in Jeremiah 25, Jeremiah 25 literally talks about Nebuchadnezzar just destroying the Middle East. God gave him that power, including Judah. Well, go read the rest of the chapter at the end of the chapter, and you tell me if that's not second coming event language that Jeremiah bled into to help us understand there's going to be another military commander that destroys Egypt, destroys Libya, destroys Sudan, and goes to Judah. He's going to conquer three kings out of the ten. Daniel names those three kings in Daniel 11:4-43. He names them literally. He's going to rock them. Nebuchadnezzar, Antichrist, will. Isaiah 19, "I will turn you over to a cruel master." Daniel confirms that in Daniel 11:40-43. My friends, this is super serious, especially for the Jewish people. Super serious. Especially with what we're seeing today. We've got to realize and help everybody who we can understand these things because a lot of people are going to die. A lot of people are going to go to hell. A lot of people want to take the mark of the beast. And I don't personally want to see anybody take the mark of the beast. I don't want to see anybody go to hell. Nobody. Not Islam, the Islamists, the terrorists, the Jews, the Gentiles. I don't want to see one human being go to hell. And that's why I say what I say.

And as we continue, the coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan. That's Revelation 12. That's also Revelation 13 as well. He's going to indwell him with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception. And Messiah says, "Do not be deceived, among those who perish because they did not receive the love of the truth that they might be saved." And for this reason, God will send them a strong delusion, world politicians, everybody, a strong delusion from Satan and also for Antichrist, the false prophet, that they should believe the lie, the falsehood, that they will all be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. My friends, that is what the apostle is speaking of. He's talking about only one thing in 1 Thessalonians 4, 1 Thessalonians 5, 2 Thessalonians 1 and 2. Only one thing: the Day of the Lord. And then he adds to it for our education. Whoever wants to take the apostle literally, the Day of the Lord and the gathering of the saints, only once, one time. No, "before seven years I'm gonna get you." "Three and a half years I'm gonna get you." You never see that in any kind of literal language with the Holy Bible and the Holy scriptures and the prophets. That is a man-made doctrine that is going to deceive a lot of people. And when the Antichrist gets indwelt with Satan in the three-and-a-half-year mark of the seven-year tribulation, boy howdy, the Jews and Gentiles or Christians are going to bow because they don't have the education and the knowledge of what Paul said, the times and the seasons.

So, before we go to Matthew 24, let's just look briefly in summary of what we've discovered here, my friends. First of all, Peter warns all Christians and Jews not to take Paul out of context to our own destruction, which are untaught and unstable people twist to their own destruction, as they do the rest of the scriptures. So Peter warns everybody, no one has an excuse. Peter warned everybody to be careful with Paul. Have the education to read Paul. And it's not just about having the education to understand what we went through tonight. It's about following our Master, following Yeshua. It's amazing. He says to pick up our cross and follow Him. What does that mean? Of course, common sense would tell us, logical sense would tell us to do everything that He did. And I'm not sure what the Christians are missing on this. Follow Him. What did He do? He did this right here. He did the divine appointments at moments. He did the Shabbat. Because if He did not, that would exclude Him. That would eliminate Him from being the Jewish Messiah. That's why when the Jews look at the Christians, they're like, "What are these people doing?" And I'm with them. "What are you doing?" And then I look at the Jews, "What are you doing not following Yeshua?" Both parties are out of alignment. And now look at this world. And look at the judgment coming to everybody because the Jews and Christians are not doing God's work. They're just not, as a whole. We're just not. That's pretty obvious in my opinion. And we don't have the education. We don't have the knowledge. We don't have the wisdom. We don't have the love of God to humble ourselves. Humble ourselves and have education in saying, "It's a Jewish thing. It's a Christian thing." Get that out of our face, please. I don't want to hear any of that. It's a God thing. How about that? And if you love God, and I know everybody on here does on the replay as well, then it's time to get serious about our faith instead of all this lollipop stuff going on outside with Judaism, Christianity, Islam, the isms and the schisms, Hinduism, Buddhism, this ism, national Christian nationalism, Zionism, political Zionism. We've got all the isms you want and the schisms. And those who are part of that stuff, they have no idea what is going down because of all that theology and eschatology is totally false. And that's why they're fighting really against God. They don't even know it because He has an order of events to happen right now. And right now, we are out of alignment as Jews and Christians who support Israel and all of these things. I love the Jewish people and I love the Christians, but it's time to get real with the Jewish people and the Christians. Instead of all of this candy land stuff that you're seeing out here that is just disgusting, actually, because people are cowtowing because they don't want to offend anybody. Well, keep being offended, is what I tell everybody.

So, Peter is saying to all of us, be careful with Paul. He gives him credit. He said, "Beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given to him, has written to you and also the epistles, speaking in them of these things in which some things are hard to understand, which untaught..." because he's telling you right now, Paul's very educated with the Torah, the Prophets, the Psalms, and the Gospels. And those who are not, untaught, unstable people twist to their own destruction, as they do the rest of the scriptures. Because of their replacement theology, their anti-Semitism, or from the Jewish side, their lack of knowledge as well. I mean, we've got to get serious and get on the right page with the New Testament writers, in this case, Peter, and also Paul as well. So, there you go. There's the warning for all people who are going to watch this video. Now, you know where to go. 2 Peter 3:14-18, and meditate on it, pray into it. And what does that mean to the rest of the scriptures?

Okay, 1 Thessalonians 4. Let's look at that in summary. What does he go through? He's going through the resurrection where the dead rise first, the alive will be caught up with them to meet the Lord in the air. He's talking about the Day of the Lord. When does he say that's going to happen? On the trumpet of God. And if anybody's familiar with this, of course, it means the Feast of Trumpets. That's literal. That's simple. Don't twist it. Don't try to get deeper. It's the Feast of Trumpets. That's pretty amazing. He says, "On the Feast of Trumpets, the Lord will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, with the trumpet of God. And then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air to be hidden in the pavilion of the Lord." To be hidden in the Day of the Lord, not the day of Antichrist. In the pavilion of the Lord. We'll go through that Friday night with the scriptures of Zephaniah, Isaiah 26, and also with the prophet Zephaniah.

1 Thessalonians 5, he continues with the Day of the Lord concept and the trajectory. But concerning, and again, if you're just joining us, just like I said before, there are no chapter breaks. When Paul was writing this, he didn't write 1 Thessalonians 2, 3, 4, and 5. He didn't do that. They were added later. So, take all this chapter break stuff out. It's just a continuing epistle of knowledge for us to understand what he's trying to say concerning the times and the seasons. What does that mean? Well, if one's not familiar with that, the time is only that. It's the calendar only, and the seasons are this right here. Both Greek and Hebrew translations will tell you that. It's the mo'edim, the set apart times. And if anyone who knows these things will tell you this, it's only talking about the times and the seasons on the calendar so that we can understand when this Feast of Trumpets is, or Yom Teruah, Yom Kippur, the Feast of Tabernacles. Why? Because Yeshua has to fulfill these. It's not maybe, it's not if. The Jewish Messiah will have to fulfill these prophecies in the Bible. Revelation 19:10 says, "The testimony of Yeshua is the spirit of prophecy." So call them whatever you want, feast days, they're called divine appointments, really, but they're prophecies that He had to fulfill to prove to us that He is the Jewish Messiah. He has to fulfill things, just like He said in Matthew 5:17-20, "Do not think, do not even imagine that I have come to destroy the Torah and the Prophets. I did not come to destroy, but to fulfill." Before heaven and earth pass away. When is that? That's after the millennial kingdom, not before, after the millennial kingdom because He has to fulfill all things. Not one jot or tittle will be excluded till all is established on this earth. That's the prerequisite, everybody. He's got to do this as the Jewish Messiah, or He would be eliminated from being the Jewish Messiah and the King of Israel, the Holy One of Israel, the Son of God, and all these things that we know Yeshua is, that we know Jesus is. But if one doesn't understand this, they're going to be caught as a thief in the night, just like Yahweh has said, or just like the Apostle Paul said through the Holy Spirit concerning the calendar and the feast days in Leviticus 23.

"Brethren, you have no need that I should write to you. For you know yourselves perfectly that what? The Day of the Lord, not the tribulation, comes as a thief in the night. For when they say peace and safety, then sudden destruction will come upon them." Why? Because they don't... And the Day of the Lord is here, and it'll be like labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And guess what? They will not escape. But you, brethren, all of you out there who know these things, you are not in darkness, so that this day, what day? The tribulation? No, the Day of the Lord shall overtake you as a thief. I mean, come on. Let's get to the Day of the Lord. Quit worrying about the Antichrist. Buckle up. Get your seatbelt on. Get some faith. Get some spirit. Let's go. And worry about the Day of the Lord. I'd be worried about Yeshua, not the Antichrist. You are all sons of the light and sons of the day, all of you who know these things. But if not, even in the night.

So, the Hebrew and the Greek confirm that, just like we showed you the set appointed times on both of them. Look at what Paul says: "Therefore, let us not sleep as others do, but let us watch and be sober." As wise virgins, because the foolish virgins, "I never knew you. I never knew you." And that's what He's going to tell a lot of people, a lot of Christians who think they know Him. "I never knew you because you did not celebrate and proclaim and be on my set appointed times." Let's go to verse number nine, I believe. "For God did not appoint us to wrath." What is He talking about? Is He talking about the tribulation? No, He is not. There's nowhere in 1 Thessalonians 4 or 5 that He mentions the seven-year tribulation period. He just does not. "For God did not appoint us to wrath." That's the Day of the Lord. That's what He's talking about is the Day of the Lord, "but to obtain salvation through our Lord Yeshua the Messiah." Amen and amen and amen.

As we continue forward in 2 Thessalonians 1, we'll go to the highlighted areas. He's talking again about the Day of the Lord. He's not changing when he rewrote when he wrote back to the Thessalonians. He did not change these things at all. He did not. And then look at what he says, pointing to the Day of the Lord, "in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God or His appointed times, and those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah," which again is the appointed times as well. "These shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of His power when He comes, when in that day, the Day of the Lord, to be glorified in His saints and to be admired among all those who believe, because our testimony among you was believed." Amen, amen, and amen.

And then here is the finality of the teaching that I believe Paul wants us to understand. "Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, on the Feast of Trumpets, to pour out His 10-day wrath and the gathering together to Him, that means the resurrection and the Day of the Lord is at the same time, not seven years before, not three and a half years before. Let's get serious. It's on the Day of the Lord. Let no one deceive you by any means, please. For that the Day of the Lord will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the son of man, or the son, excuse me, the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition." That tells you what, my friends. That tells you that again, if the gathering of the Lord, excuse me, if the coming of the Lord and the gathering of the saints is at one time, and Paul tells you that that's not going to happen until the Antichrist is revealed, then that means the resurrection is not going to come until after the Antichrist is revealed because they happen together at one time, just like he says in the beginning of this chapter. So, let's get serious. Who opposes and exalts that he is God. So again, you're going to witness all of that before the resurrection and the coming of the Lord. Do you not remember that when I was still with you, I told you these things? And now you know what is restraining, the Archangel Michael, Daniel 12, that he may be revealed in his own time. For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work. Only he now who restrains will do so until he is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. That's the Day of the Lord on the Feast of Trumpets to Yom Kippur. The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, when he indwells him at the three-and-a-half-year mark when he falls like lightning from heaven with all power, signs, lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those saved. And for this reason, God will send them a strong delusion that they that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. My friends, I mean, this is about as serious as you can get. If you love mankind, if you love Jews, if you love Gentiles, if you love Christians, if you love whoever, this is super important because He tells you that everybody's going to be here for the seven-year tribulation period. I mean, that's what Paul says. The Day of the Lord is when He returns. Only once. Nowhere in the scriptures does it say, "I return seven years to get you, or seven years before the Day of the Lord to get you, or three and a half years before the Day of the Lord to get you." No, "I get you out," is what Paul's saying and what Yeshua is about to tell us. After the tribulation, the Day of the Lord, and 10 days of awe, and will be hidden in the pavilion of the Most High.

So, my friends, that is what the Apostle Paul, the trajectory that he was on to help us all understand to get a spirit of sound mind, a spirit of love, not a spirit of fear. And personally speaking, that's what I see out there amongst unfortunately some of the Jewish people and unfortunately some of the Christians as well. Spirit of fear, "Please get me out. Please get me out. Rapture, rapture, rapture." Why are we worried about the rapture? Let's do the Great Commission until He comes. Right? And it's going to be on the Feast of Trumpets when He returns for second coming events to hide us in the pavilion of the Most High. Amen and amen and amen.

Okay, so again, that's what Paul's trajectory was. Let's look at Yeshua the Messiah. Everybody's familiar with Matthew 24, right? So, I'm going to give you a synopsis of it really quick and the trajectory that it should be on. It should be in order. And if one's not going to take Matthew 24 in order, then you have to take Luke 21 in order, which is the same thing. Same all of it discourse. Why? Because Luke 1 tells you to take his whole book in chronological order. So again, Matthew 24 is chronological order. But if you're not going to believe Matthew or Yeshua, then go to Luke 21 and you will see that. And that's for sure in order because Luke says that and it goes directly parallel to Matthew 24. So Matthew 24 opens up with, "What are the signs of the end of the age and your arrival?" So right there is the question of the second coming events at the end of the age. Yeshua says there's going to be earth, or He says, "Do not be deceived." Number one, that's very important. False preachers, false Christ, false rabbis, false everybody. So, we've got to understand false is what's going to happen right now. He's talking about right now. So, I'm not sure why everybody's caught up in religion or politicians right now instead of what Yeshua and Paul and everybody else is trying to say. So, He talks about the birth pains, earthquakes, famines, all these things. They're going to bring you up for tribulation, all this stuff. And then He talks about the abomination of desolation, the three-and-a-half-year mark. That's a very important marker. And then He talks about this right here. And let's look at what He says: "Immediately after the tribulation of those days, the sun will be darkened, the moon will not give its light, the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of heaven will be shaken. Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven. From the east to the west. Then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming in clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet." Hello, everybody. That's literal. Feast of Trumpets. "And they will gather His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other." My friends, He did not say, "Immediately before the tribulation, I'm going to come and get you." He didn't say that. He says after. So again, we're not reading. We're just not even reading what Yeshua said. He says after the tribulation, everybody's going on their feelings of wanting to get out of here because of the spirit of fear. And just let them continue with the spirit of fear because that's what's going to happen when all this stuff goes down. Immediately after the tribulation is when we get out of here, just like Paul said, the coming of the Lord and the gathering. Same thing here. Immediately after tribulation, then the gathering, right? I mean, it's perfectly aligned. Paul's perfectly aligned with Yeshua the Messiah, 1 Thessalonians 4 and 5, 2 Thessalonians 2, especially is right perfectly with our Yeshua Messiah. After the tribulation, redemption. After the tribulation, redemption, or with Yeshua returning. Same thing. So, He's both of them are telling us this is going to be one event. He's coming to get us out of here to pour out His 10 days of wrath, and we're hidden in the pavilion of the Lord, and He's going to pour out the seven bowls on the people, the sickle of the sword and the sickle of the fire. Revelation 14:4, the seven bowls. That's what He's talking about if one understands the timeline. Super important.

So, what does that mean? That means the Feast of Trumpets is when He's returning. You saw it from Matthew 24 and 1 Thessalonians and 2 Thessalonians, the Day of the Lord. So, if one's just joining us now, seven years, it begins on the Feast of Trumpets. It will end on the Feast of Trumpets, right? If He's returning on the Feast of Trumpets, then seven exact years on the Feast of Trumpets, right? And then the Day of the Lord. So, seven years, Trumpets to Trumpets, Day of the Lord. That's the shmita cycle, by the way. Not to get into that tonight, but it's very important if one's not into that. Leviticus 25, the seven-year cycle. And that's why this cycle coming up here in three years, almost three exact years, is very, very important to watch for. Especially when you see all of these lunatics in the world carrying our world to one place, only to the tribulation. And we'll see what happens.

As we go forward with the understanding, look at what He continues to say. "Then two men will be in the field. One will be taken, one left. Two women will be grinding at the mill. One will be taken, one left." That's your resurrection, y'all. Right after He says this. He says this first. "Immediately after the tribulation, He gathers us." And then look at what He continues to say. "Two men will be in the field, one taken, one left." There's your resurrection, everybody. "Two women will be grinding at the mill, one taken, one left." "Watch, therefore, for you do not know what hour, not day, what hour your Lord is coming. But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. Therefore, you also be ready, for the Son, Son of Man is coming an hour, not a day, an hour you do not expect." My friends, He's telling you, you can understand this. This is not to set dates. This is to watch these things. Understand the cycle, understand these things, and just watch like we all do on the channel. We're just watching and trying to understand what's going down. He does not say you will not know the day. Or He says hour, hour, not day. So, we've got to understand, He's wanting us to understand this because He wouldn't have said this stuff.

Matthew 25, He continues with the Olivet Discourse. And excuse me, what does He say? The wise virgins and the foolish virgins. So, why would He say this if He didn't want you to understand? The wise and foolish virgins are very important to understand. And what happened? The foolish virgins knocked too late, kind of like Noah's story. Too late, too late. And that's why I say what I say again. I mean, I just again, I want people to understand whether they like it or not, like it, that's not up to me. They've got to understand these things, or they're going to be called as a thief in the night. And I don't want to see anybody being called as a thief in the night, and I know you guys don't either. But we have to read slowly. We have to pull out these things instead of just surface readers and motivational speeches and lemon cakes and coffee at church. None of that. Let's get down to it. Fasting, prayer, understanding, and all of these things, not all of this yo-yo stuff that's going on out there.

Let's look, look what Yeshua says with the lukewarm church. We all know all of the churches in Revelation. We all know we want to be a part of the faithful church. There's a dead church as well. There's no sense in going through that. I'll go through that. I think one of the feast days, Yom Kippur or Trumpets. But let's go through the lukewarm church because that's where a lot of Christians are. Christians, they love Jesus, but there are no commandments. There are none of that. It's "I've got my faith and I've got Jesus and that's all that I need." No, it's not. You need to get on board and follow the commandments. That's what is the true understanding of "pick up your cross and follow Him." Not yourself, not your church, not your synagogue, not anybody, not myself, not no one. Follow Him. What did He do? He observed these. And if you don't, thief in the night, you're going to be judged severely for that. I don't know how that looks, but you'll be judged severely for not following what He said. Pick up our cross and follow what He did. He did not do Christmas. He did not do Easter. He did not go to synagogue on Sunday. He went on the Shabbat and He celebrated the Shabbat. Why? Because if He did not, again, eliminate Him from being the Jewish Messiah. And the Son of God. He had to fulfill everything perfectly because He was perfect and He is perfect and He's coming back to pour out His wrath for those who don't understand these things, who are "ain't life grand," all this nonsense with paganism. That's who He's coming back for. Falsehood, as well as the Islamists, of course. He's coming back to do.

So, let's read the lukewarm church and look at what the Master says. "And to the angel of the church of the Laodiceans, write these things, says the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God. I know your works, lukewarm church, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm and neither hot nor cold, I will vomit you out of my mouth. Because you say, 'I am rich. I have become wealthy and have need of nothing.' And you don't know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked. I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, in the tribulation, Antichrist, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Amen to that. Therefore, be zealous." Let's get some zealousness, everybody. Zealousness. And people can't handle that, but that's okay. You get zealous. Don't worry about anybody else. You do your part with God and be zealous. That's what He's looking for. "And repent. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. To him who overcomes, I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches."

My friends, I will go through the faithful church and the dead church on the feast days. I think it's one of the two, Trumpets or Yom Kippur, and we will go through the other two. But there are a lot of churches right now. Most churches out there are lukewarm. At best. I would say dead, but I'll be nice. Lukewarm. But look at what Yeshua says. He's going to spit them out of His mouth. So that's why I keep telling people, there is no middle ground. There is no fence riding. It's either get in or get out. Hot or cold, wise or foolish, good or evil. He all goes through that throughout all the Gospels. I'm not sure why everybody's tiptoeing around this stuff. Get in or get out, is what He says. Get hot or stay cold or lukewarm out. So, what's the point? Let's get hot. Let's get hot. Because just like the song says, "When you're hot, you're hot. When you're not, you're not." So, we've got to understand that. I think Jerry Reed sung that back in 50 years ago. Who knows? Who cares? But that's the truth. When you're hot, you're hot. When you're not, it's bad stuff. Bad stuff according to what the Master said Himself. So, let's stay hot, friends. Let's stay hot and not cold. Let's get out of the lukewarmness. Let's get hot. Get wise, not foolish. Get good, not evil. Let's watch, therefore, and be counted worthy. Be counted worthy so that we can escape all these things that are coming on the earth. He's talking about the 10 days of awe. Everybody, the prophet Hosea 4:6, look at what the great prophet says, "My people perish for lack of knowledge." I mean, friends, I mean, I go through it all the time. I mean, Christians are going to perish. Jewish people are going to perish, and all the other pagan pagans are going to perish as well. Buddhism, Hinduism, and all that. It's going to perish, you know, because people don't have knowledge. And what's so sad is the people who say they love Jesus, they don't have knowledge. They have no knowledge. I mean, Christianity cannot show you these things of what Yeshua did. Why? Because they don't believe it. They don't observe it. They don't know it. It's not in their theology. That's what's so crazy. So, there's not probably one church, unless it's a Messianic church, that can that's going to show us this stuff. How sad is that? I mean, goodness gracious. You know how many people are deceived? About two billion Christians. Think about that. About two billion Muslims. Think about that. Half the world who says they love God in whatever way they say is deceived. My goodness. I mean, you wonder why people get upset and get frustrated and want to help people out and have zeal for mankind because think about that. Think about what we just read with the Apostle Paul in the New Testament, my Christian friends. It's not the Torah. It's not the Prophets. It's the New Testament. And Paul is telling you exactly what the Torah will tell you. Exactly what the Prophets will tell you. Strong stuff. But why not? I mean, I like that kind of stuff. I want somebody with zealousness. I mean, I don't really talk to people who don't have zealousness because they, I mean, why would I? I mean, I want to talk to people who are zealous, and they don't offend me at all. Actually, I love that kind of talk because it gets all of our spirits quickened because the Holy Spirit's trying to quicken everybody right now. He's trying to quicken everybody to wake themselves up and to get knowledge because, why? Just like He told, just like He influenced the prophet, the Holy Spirit, "My people perish for lack of knowledge." God does not want you to perish. He does not want the Jewish people to perish. He doesn't want the Christians to perish, or really mankind. But that's what's going to happen. And He's warned everybody. Everybody has been warned if they've got a Holy Bible. If they've got the Holy scriptures, they have been warned that they're just not reading it. And then when they read it, if they don't have the knowledge of the Torah, the Prophets, and the Psalms, they're going to take the Gospels out of context. They're not going to understand. I don't know why. I mean, every gospel account tells you that on the crucifixion, Passover. I'm not sure why Christians do Good Friday. I still can't understand that. Well, they're Babylonian. That's why they do that. They're Roman Catholics. All of them are because they celebrate Good Friday, Easter Sunday. Where's that in the Bible? It's not. Okay, either get in or get out, you know, just like Yeshua said. Okay? And worship Him in spirit and in truth, or it's going to be the judgment. I'm going to go ahead and tell you that right now. How insulting it is for Christianity to not celebrate His crucifixion on the right day. What if I celebrated your birthday on the wrong day? What if I celebrated your death on the wrong day? How about that? Let's just hold you over in the casket for about a week or two, and we get on my calendar and let me celebrate your death. I mean, what arrogance? What pride? What ego? And guess what? That church pride is going to be broken. Okay, I can go ahead and tell you that right now. Just like the Jewish people, Daniel 8, the pride will be broken. Christians, the pride will be broken. And it's coming. It's here. And it's called Islam. God's going to turn this world over to Islam to judge the Christians and the Jews. That is for sure. I think that's pretty obvious when you look around, unless you're in Trump land or Netanyahu land or whatever land. And they're leading both of these countries to the beast kingdom. Both of them.

Look at what Yeshua says to the Jewish people in Luke 19:41-44. "Now as He drew near, Yeshua, He cried over the city, weeping, saying, 'If you had only known, Jewish people, even you, especially in this your day, the things that make for your peace, but now they are hidden from your eyes. For days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment around you and surround you and close you in on every side and level you, and your children with you, to the ground, and they will not leave you one stone upon another.' Why? Because you did not understand the time of your visitation." Boy howdy, goodness gracious. He tells you right there, the Master Himself. He was on a donkey on Nissan 10. Christians, that's four days before He was crucified on Passover. He was rolling into Jerusalem weeping over the city because the people didn't have a clue. Except for the remnant. The remnant always has a clue. And they were singing, "Son of David, Hosanna, Hosanna, save now." They were singing Psalm 118 because they knew what time it was. It was time for the crucifixion, everybody. And He understood that, or they understood that. The remnant always understands. But the rest of the Jewish people did not understand. And He said this, "You're going to be destroyed by the Romans, AD 70." Why? Because you didn't understand the time of your visitation. The Jewish people were celebrating Passover for 1,500 years. Everybody killing the lamb, the Passover lamb. The Jewish Messiah walks in, and the majority of people did not have a clue what was going on. That's what I'm talking about. That's why I say what I say. They were doing it and they didn't have a clue. Most of them. The remnant always does, but most of them didn't. Okay, that's just facts. So, if they didn't understand what was going on and they were doing it, what do you think the Christians are going to do right now with not knowing the feast days at all? At all. What do you think's going to happen? I mean, He's a fair judge, a just judge, a righteous judge. If He told His people that, what do you think He's telling the Gentiles? "Ain't life grand? You don't have to observe. Do your thing. Dual covenant." All this stuff. Get out of that stuff, it will bring somebody to a pit of hell. Period. We've got to get biblical, everybody. It's a narrow road, as Yeshua says, narrow. And few find it, not many. Few find it. Two billion Christians? No way, Jose. Few find it, not many. We've got to really understand this, my friends.

Matthew 7. "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven." That means to observe the days, observe the Sabbath, observe, observe, observe. Is what He is saying. "Many will say to Me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name? Cast out demons in Your name? Done many wonders in Your name?' And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you. Depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness.'" Don't know what to tell you, friends. Look at it. Read it and weep, is what I say. And repent if you're not on the days and get on the days because this is what He says. Don't take it from me. You can be mad at me all you want. Read it and weep. "And I will declare to them, 'I never knew you,' those who practice lawlessness." It's not talking about Israel law. It's not talking about American law. It's not talking about any worldly law. It's talking about His law. Because you can't have it both ways, my Christian friends. If law means Torah, and everyone out there would agree with that, then it's just a simple understanding. Lawlessness means lawlessness, or not following Yah's commandments and understanding the times and the seasons in His Torah. That's what it means. Don't take it from me. Take it from Him, and take it from Paul. Take it from the Prophets. Take it from the Bible. I'm just trying to do my part. But goodness gracious, look at what He says. "I will declare to them, 'I never knew you.'" How do you know Him? The Word of God, the Torah, Prophets, Psalms, especially the Torah, and to understand how to celebrate our Master in spirit and in truth, and not in Christmas or Easter or Sunday Sabbath, and all of the other paganism that the Christians are doing. Because they're acting like the ancestors of the Jewish people. And that's why Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and all of the Prophets told them, "Get ready. Nebuchadnezzar is coming because of your behavior." Well, guess what? Now our Christian friends are doing the same exact thing. Why? You'd have to ask them. Okay, I guess replacement theology. They don't know better. They're not reading their Bibles. They don't... Who knows? You have to ask them. But they're not doing it. They're acting. What's so interesting, I was thinking about this today. There was a Protestant Reformation from the Catholic Church, but I don't know what kind of reformation it was because they kept all of the pagan days. They kept all of the Roman days. These are all from Babylon, everybody. Christmas, Babylon. That's why Jeremiah told them not to do wooden images. Jeremiah 10. Moses said the same thing in Deuteronomy 7, or Deuteronomy 5. Just read the book of Deuteronomy. He tells you that Egypt was doing that crap. Babylon was doing that stuff. Rome's doing this stuff. Easter, go look at Constantine, everybody. It's very simple. 325 AD, the Council of Nicaea. Constantine tells you himself he changed it. So, don't leave me. Go read what Constantine said. He changed Passover to Easter. Changed the Sabbath to Sunday. Or he didn't, but he got the Christians to do that. And so, who are you going to follow? If you're out there and this is new to you, who are you going to follow? Are you going to follow Constantine, Babylon, Rome, or you going to follow your Master? Which one? Please choose one. You can't follow both. There's no way. I said, "Divide the kingdom, it will not stand." Everybody said, "Choose who you serve today. If Baal be God, let him be God. If the Lord is God, then everybody needs to repent." Who's a Christian who's doing this Babylonian stuff? Because that's what they are, as Babylonians, Constantinians, Romans. That's what they are, Gentiles. And go read what happens to the Gentiles. If you're saved in Yeshua the Messiah, you're not a Gentile, just like Paul says. So, quit acting like a bunch of pagans out there, my Christian friends, because it's going to get you this right here. That's only what it's going to get you. Don't trust me. Read what He says over and over and over again. What does He say in Mark 7? "You have made the commandment of God of no effect by your tradition. And in vain they worship Me."

Right now, we have about two billion Christians worshiping the Master in vain because they don't know the times and the seasons. They don't know what's going on. They don't know the right ways to worship. And in Matthew 7, He will declare to them, "I never knew you." How can you know Him? How can you know Him if you don't know what the Torah says about Him? If you're not worshiping in the spirit and in truth, if you're not on the Sabbath, if you're not on the new moon, if you're not on the feast days, how can you know Him? You can't know Him through the right understanding. You have an American Jesus out there. You have a Roman Jesus out there, and it's just nonsense. No wonder this world is getting this way because His people of the book, the Jews and the Christians, are so out of alignment; they can't even see straight right now. On different points, Jewish people, Yeshua. Gentiles or Christians, the days. Get on the days or get out. That's what He's going to say. What are the days? The Feast calendar. Don't forget the Sabbath. The Sabbath isn't on there, but it's the first feast day. Leviticus 23 is the Sabbath. Get on it, and your life will change forever. Get on the Passover; your life will change forever. Eternal life. That's when He was crucified for you. Don't you think that's respectful to do that? What if I celebrated your death about a week or two later on my calendar because I have the grace to do that? No, get on His days or get out. That's what Yeshua the Messiah is telling all of us.

We could show you over and over again throughout the gospel accounts where Yeshua said to get on His days to worship Him in spirit and in truth. Everybody knows you can't worship Him in spirit and in truth on Sunday, thinking that's the Sabbath He's talking about. That's not the day that the Lord has made. Number one, that's not even talking about the Sabbath; it's talking about Passover in Psalm 118. By the way, it's not talking about the Sabbath even; He's talking about His crucifixion. It's a crucifixion hymn. We just have to get educated. I make no apologies. I love everybody, but goodness gracious, let's get some zeal and try to teach people and provoke them to jealousy. Provoking is not always, "Hey, could you please, could you please get on God's calendar, please? And please worship Him in spirit and in truth." That's just not my personality. I would go bonkers with that kind of stuff. Let's go. Let's get on it or get out, is what Yeshua the Messiah says. And that's what He says to me. He told me to get straight 12 years ago. He told me to get straight. My life was a lie. I had a cross around my neck. I was celebrating Christmas, Easter, whatever. I didn't really go to church, but anyhow, I had a cross. I love Jesus. No, I didn't. I didn't love Jesus because, guess what? In John 14 and 15, "He who has my commandments and keeps them, he it is who loves Me." And if you don't, you won't.

So, the homework for tonight, my friends, please go read John 14 and chapter 15. Every Jew and Gentile needs to go read what their Master said in John 14 and John chapter 15 about following His Father's commandments and how He and His Father are one. Keeping the commandments offends people. Everybody loves Jesus, right? Until you talk about the commandments. "Oh, that's legalism." No, it's not. What they're doing is legalism because they're following Roman law, they're following Babylonian law. That's legalism. They're following mankind, they're following Constantine, they're following the church. That is idolatry, and idolatry will not get them into the kingdom of heaven. Just go read 1 Corinthians 6. That's another scripture for the Christians. Paul writes that for all of our Christian friends. What does he say about Passover? Did he say celebrate Easter? No, he did not. Did he say celebrate Good Friday? Of course he didn't, or he would be a false prophet. What did he say in 1 Corinthians 5:7? "Keep the feast of Passover," is what he told the Corinthian church. Checkmate. I don't know what people are reading with their paganism, but again, the Bible will checkmate every single one of us from Genesis to Revelation, including the Apostle Paul. And he said to keep the feast of Passover, Christians, not your paganism, Good Friday, Easter Sunday, all this paganism that will lead you to this: "I never knew you." Because how can you? He's not on Easter. Why would He be? Why would He be on Christmas? Why would He? He's the Jewish Messiah. He's the Holy One of Israel. Holy. Holy. Holy. Not pagan. Holy. He can't be around this stuff. The Holy Spirit is holy. The Ruach is holy. Quit with the blasphemies. Quit with the abominations. Quit with the heresies. Christians, please. I love you to tell you this, and I'd rather you hate me when I tell you this than love me and say, "Yeah, you're good. You're good." No, you're not. No, you're not according to this. According to Matthew 7, according to Luke 19:41-44, according to Mark 7, Matthew 5, John. How about Matthew 23? What does He say? Go read the first verse. He says, "Whenever the Jewish people leadership sits in Moses' seat teaching you the Torah, listen to them in everything that they teach you. But when they don't, Talmud, Kabbalah, all this craziness that's going on over there in Israel, no, don't listen to them because it's oral traditions." And guess what? He called them serpents and vipers and then called them hypocrites about seven times. Exactly seven times so that they can get spiritual perfection. Number seven, think about that. Leadership of the Christians, the Pharisees of the Christians, also the Pharisees of the Jews. Wake up because the Master is the same. And then He went all of the discourse, Matthew 24, says, "Do not be deceived." Why did He say, "Do not be deceived" in Matthew 24? Well, look what He said in Matthew 23 to the leadership of Israel. And He would say the same exact thing to the Christians right now, the leadership. Serious stuff, everybody. This is not something to mess around with. People have the wrong understanding of who Yeshua truly is. All this American Jesus, Roman Jesus, "Ain't life grand? You've got the grace." No, you do not have the grace to break His commandments every single week, every single month, every single year. Abominations, abominations, abominations. Rebellion, rebellion, rebellion. That's all that Christianity is with the ways to worship: rebellion. 1 Samuel 15:22-24. Everybody loves Samuel, right? We're about to see who loves Samuel and who doesn't. He says this, "Obedience is better than sacrifice. To heed the Lord, to follow the Lord, His commandments is better than heaping rams on the altar." Rebellion, Christians, Jews, rebellion. Not following Him is just like the sin of witchcraft. We have a lot of people in witchcraft right now. And stubbornness or stiff-neckedness, Jews and Christians, is just like idolatry. Somebody please go read Samuel and please repent. Please, what this man, this holy prophet said, one of the first great prophets in the list of them. Go read what he said. And who's going to come against that? This is a man who anointed David. He anointed Saul. This was a holy prophet. And he says, "Your rebellion is just like witchcraft." And unfortunately today, we have a lot of people in witchcraft and a lot of people in idolatry for their stubbornness, their stiff-neckedness. They have their Jesus. No, they don't. They just don't. If they're not following the commandments, they just don't. That's all throughout the gospel account. They do not.

Go read Revelation 22:14-16, everybody. That's the back of the Bible. It's just like the front of the Bible, everybody, in the middle of it, and the Gospels and Paul and everybody. It's the same message from Genesis to Revelation. What does the Messiah say? What does the Master say? "Blessed are those who keep the commandments," not get rid of them. Blessed are those who keep them. Who are they? The ones who keep the commandments. They're the ones who enter Jerusalem, New Jerusalem, and partake of the tree of life. That's it. Go read what the Master says over and over and over again. He says the same thing. Blessed are those who keep the commandments; they only will inherit eternal life, New Jerusalem, and partake of the tree of life. Why? Because here comes the curse. Blessings and curses, just like God's instructions say in the Torah. Because outside are the dogs, or the Gentiles, is what that means. The Gentiles who love sorcery and practice falsehood. Go read it, and like I keep saying, weep for those who don't like it. If you don't like it, go weep about it because that's what the Master has said to every one of us, including myself. And He has corrected this one right here as well, over and over again, with a heavy hand, not a small hand, with a heavy hand, because He is serious about His commandments. Serious about those. So go read it. Revelation 22:14-16. The blessings and the curses. Go back and read what Moses said in Deuteronomy 26-28. The blessings and the curses. Go read what he says. And that's why I keep telling people, "Everybody loves Moses." Everybody loves Moses in Israel. We'll find out. We're going to find out who loves Moses, who loves God, who loves Yeshua. We're going to find out because from what I see in the Middle East, we're about to see it. We're about to see some really bad stuff because of the behavior of the Middle East, including Israel, by the way. All of them, including America, including the world. The whole world's going to get it. But that area is going to get Nebuchadnezzar. And when he comes down, and that's we've got some time for that, everybody. It's not going to happen tomorrow. It's not going to happen a year from now or two years from now, but whenever it comes, you're going to see people; they won't know what to do. And whenever Satan falls like lightning from heaven, whenever that time is during the tribulation at the midway point, Yeshua says, "I saw Satan fall like lightning straight down." And then all his angels with him, according to Revelation 12, Daniel 8, all these areas. He's going to indwell the Antichrist, Nebuchadnezzar, a figure, if you will, a military figure. He's going to go into the temple, proclaim God, and the Jew, or not all of them, but some of the Jews, some of the Christians, boom. And the Islamist and the Muslims, bam. And they will go to hell because they'll take the mark of the beast. And that's the result. You take the mark of the beast, you're going to hell forever. And that's why I say what I say and I will continue to say what I say, no matter what, because I love people and I love God. And we need to, we both, all of us, need to understand that we are in a massive, massive prophetic time right now. And this is turning out to be really interesting to see how this all unfolds in the Middle East. And from what I see with my own two eyes, and from the people I network with, boy, we've got some major work to do as Jews and Christians, if we love God, if we love the Master, and if we love people, and even if we love our enemy. And if we don't, then okay, I guess go enjoy your life and live your best life now. But for me, I'm going to try to do my little part in God's kingdom on this earth, and I'm going to speak what He says. I'm not going to give motivational speeches. I'm not going to give you a lemon cake and a coffee at church. This is what I'm about. To my Jewish friends as well, this is what I'm about. Moses is what I'm about. And that's going to offend the Jewish people because of what Moses said if they're out of alignment. If they're in disobedience, well, goodness gracious. I think that's common sense. Go look at Israel. Disobedience everywhere. And no wonder we're not getting the victories. No wonder we're not beating JV teams, terrorists. No wonder we're not doing any of that because of our disobedience in the promised land, our abominations all over the land, our false religion over there, Judaism, all of these things, Christianity, eggs, trees, mosques, homosexuality, abortion. I mean, goodness gracious, the list goes on and on. And our country is just the same. America, Sodom and Gomorrah, that's what we are in America, that is for sure. And the Jewish people need to wake up and understand it's the holy land and the promised land. And we have desecrated it, and now we're going to pay the price. There's a price to pay. If you go read Moses, Moses said this: "If you obey, Jewish people, and I love you with all my heart, it might not sound like it, but I love you with all my heart, and I'm just the way that I am, and I love you." Disobedience, He will bring the enemies against you. Obedience, He will keep the people away from you. That's in the Torah. Everybody loves God, right? Everybody loves Moses, right? Well, that's what it says in summary: obedience, no enemies, enjoy the land of milk and honey. Disobedience and all this crap going on over there, all this pagan stuff and abominations. He personally, God Himself, the God of Israel, will bring the enemies against you. So, if you can receive it, everybody, He's going to bring Hamas against them, Hezbollah against them, Iran against them, the Houthis against them, Turkey against them, the beast kingdom against them, and then the remnant will repent. Okay, the third will repent. But until that time, I guess they're going to try to overcome this stuff on their own power. And He's going to break that power. He's going to break that pride. He's going to break the American pride. He's going to run America out of the Middle East. I think Iran is on the way to do that. If you look at the facts on the ground and not what the president's saying or the media is saying, go look at what's going down. 15 air bases destroyed. America, good job. President Trump, good job. American government, great job. Global economy about to fall down the toilet. Oil prices, boom, you name it. So again, God is running America out of the Middle East. Why? Because Israel has looked at them as their savior, if you will. Go to America. Bombs, weapons, money, all this stuff. And the Torah, the prophet says, "No, don't do that. Call on the God of Israel. Call on the God of Israel." Because the last time that they did this, Nebuchadnezzar came to Judah and destroyed it. Because they were going to Egypt and they were going to Assyria. You can read all this in the prophets if one cares to read the prophets. What happened? Jew, Nebuchadnezzar came to town for the first round. The second round, the Jewish people went to Egypt, went to Assyria. "Please save us. Please save us. We need your weapons. We need your horsemen. We need all this." And then God brought Nebuchadnezzar down. Why? Because He had to deal with Egypt and Assyria. And Nebuchadnezzar beat both of them at the battle of Carchemish. Nebuchadnezzar beat both previous great empires together so that he could judge Judah. Understand that. That's what happened. Please read the book of Jeremiah and understand Jeremiah 25. And now that's going to happen again. Why? Because right now, America is Israel's Egypt. Right now, America is Israel's Assyria. They're coming to us instead of calling on the Holy One and the King of Israel. And when they do, and they will, the remnant will, boy, they are going to see something they've never seen before in their life when He comes to deal with the Islamist, but also He's coming to deal with everybody who practices falsehood as well. And that's what Christians need to understand.

So, my friends, thank you very much for being with us tonight. I love everybody. Nothing personal, just biblical stuff and straightforward. And I'm trying to provoke people to jealousy, not of me, of that. Do you want to stand before the King of Israel and He says, "I never knew you." Please go meditate on that. Please go pray into that when you stand before the King of Israel with your... not you guys, but if any Christians out there in their paganism right now, you think about that when you stand before the King, the Jewish King of Israel, and you stand before Him and you say, "Well, I've got my Christmas tree and my Easter eggs. I love You, Lord." I mean, please go think about what He would tell you with that. Please understand that. This possibly, it's up to Him. But that's what He says: lawlessness. Lawlessness. Lawlessness. It's not talking about any American law or Israeli law. It's talking about His Torah, God's law. Who loves God? And who loves Baal? Because just like Elijah said, "If Baal is God, serve him. But if the Lord God of Israel is God, you serve Him." Everybody loves Elijah, right? No, they don't, because they're not following what Elijah meant by that. Elijah meant get out of your paganism, and he killed 450 prophets of Baal. And that's what's going to happen, unfortunately, at the second coming events. It is heartbreaking to me because I know a lot of people who I love, that I grew up with, that are in college, that I've met throughout walks of life. They are just... I had a conversation with a good friend of mine, or a friend of mine, I'd say that I was really good friends with when I was living in Tennessee. And like I told that person, and it was just on my heart to say it, and I'm going to say it. I'm not going to not say it because I want to say something else. Everybody, Ezekiel 33 says this, and this is for me and this is for you out there as well. All of you and all of me. I mean, I'm not anything, you know, but it's for all of us to understand what Ezekiel said. Ezekiel 33 said, "If I know something that's going to help my brother out, and if I don't tell him that, the blood is on my hands as well." Well, my friends, it's not going to be on my hands because I love God and I love people. I love the first two commandments and I love my enemy, to the best of my ability. And I'm still trying to overcome that as well with my heart posture with my enemies, whoever, I mean, I don't think I have any enemies, but whoever the Islamist and all these people that are doing bad things. But that's what He says. So, the challenge to you out there as well, I challenge myself as well. There's nothing that I say to you guys that I don't do as well. Just know that. Just know that if you might not know me from Adam, that's okay, but just know that I don't say anything to you that I don't apply to myself because I would be a hypocrite, and I'm not going to be a hypocrite. Ezekiel 33 says this: "If you know something that could help your brother out," in this case, the calendar, the feast days, observant, get in or get out, then it's on our hands. It's on our hands. I don't want anybody's blood on my hands. And that's why that's not the why I say it. I say it because I love Yahweh. I love Yeshua. I love the Holy Spirit. And I love people. And I love trying my best to love my enemy. But goodness gracious, it's not going to be on my hands because I'm going to speak it out. People are going to be offended. I understand that. People have been offended for 12 years, and they'll continue to be offended. And please be offended. Be offended enough to go check this out and go search it out. That's the whole point of it. Please don't believe me. I'm not a prophet. I'm not the son of a prophet. I'm just quoting you scriptures from all of the Bible on a consistent level of obey, obey, obey, or get out. Is what He told the Jewish people in 586 BC. He told them again in AD 70. He's about to tell them again. And He's telling the whole world that as well. It's not just on the Jewish people, everybody. That would be, in my mind, anti-Semitism. It's on the world. This is for one new body, one new man, is what Paul says. Not two different ways, three different ways, none of that. One way only. How did He get that? How did He get that? Go back to the lesson tonight. Exodus, the Torah said, "One Torah for the citizen and for the stranger, for Jew and for Gentile." One Torah only. That's it. Numbers 15, same thing. The whole Torah, the same thing. So, we've got to get back. But guess what? Christianity can't tell you that. Why? Because they don't believe in it. They don't believe in it. They don't believe in none of that.

So, my friends, the times and the seasons will give you a paradigm shift that will change your life forever. And I truly mean forever. Eternal life. Why? He was crucified on Passover. Every four gospels tell you that. Put in the tomb on Unleavened Bread. That's just the trajectory if you know the feast days. Passover. Every four gospels will tell you that. Why are they doing Good Friday? I don't know. It's a different religion. You'd have to ask them. The Feast of Firstfruits. Paul calls Him the firstfruits of mankind. What does that mean? He's the Feast of Firstfruits. Three days, the resurrection. We need to get educated. 50 days later, excuse me, He had to pour out His Holy Spirit on Pentecost. He had to. He had to. And He did. Acts 2. He fulfilled the first four perfectly because He is perfect, and He had to be perfect. Second coming events, the next event in line. Guess what? The Feast of Trumpets. What do we discover tonight? The Feast of Trumpets. Isn't that pretty amazing? Or what Paul was trying to tell everybody, understanding, because guess what? Yeshua had already fulfilled these first four spring feast days when Paul came on the scene. You see? So that's why Paul just looked at the trumpets for the Day of the Lord, not Pentecost, not Unleavened Bread, not Passover. He said, "Trumpets, trumpets, trumpets." Because it was the next feast day to be fulfilled. And it is the next feast day to be fulfilled. You see what I'm saying? So, we've got to get educated, my friends. Educated. I know me, and I am who I am. But goodness gracious, we've got to get educated, everybody. You see, Paul was saying, "Trumpets, trumpets, trumpets, trumpets. Look out for them because that's when the tribulation's going to start. That's when it's going to end. When He returns to hide us all in the pavilion of the Most High as He pours out His 10 days of wrath on all of mankind who does not believe in Him and keep His commandments." In the book of Revelation, in Revelation 12, when Satan's thrown down from heaven, he chases the Jewish people to Mount Zion, right? And he knows that he can't touch them because they're going to be provisioned down there for them. He won't be able to mess with the Jewish people who flee to, who listen to Yeshua and flee to the mountains for the last three and a half years. They're going to be supernaturally protected, if you will. And if you read the scripture, what does that mean? And what does that say after that? He's coming after the rest of the Gentiles, the Christians, if you will. Why? Because it says that those who believe in Yeshua and that's it. No, those who believe in Yeshua and keep the commandments, and keep the commandments, and keep the commandments, just like Yeshua said, "If you love Me, keep My commandments." So, all throughout the Bible, it says for God's people to keep His commandments. Period. Or it's going to be not good. At all. And He's the Judge of us all. But if you want to receive this from the Master Himself and what He said, He says this: "I will declare to them, I never knew you. Depart from Me, those who practice not the Torah, those who don't know the Torah, those who aren't celebrating Me on My... when I died for your sins, when I was crucified, resurrected on the right days, on the right calendar." That's what He's talking about. Practicing lawlessness, or all this other stuff, commit adultery, murder, and all this stuff. But He's talking about the ways to worship, everybody, in spirit and in truth. What did He tell the Samaritan woman? "For the hour is coming, and now is, 2,000 years ago. Now is for God's people to worship Him in spirit and in truth." What is spirit? Holy Spirit. What is truth? Let the Bible define that truth. What does King David say about the truth? Psalm 119, what does he say? The truth is the Torah. The way is the Torah. The life is the Torah. Why did He say it like that? Why? Because Yeshua said in John 14, "I am the way, the truth, and the life." I'm the living Torah. I am the Word made flesh. John 1, "Follow Me for eternal life." That means not just belief. Your belief is dead if you do not follow Him. That's what James says. His brother, Yakov, is what his name really is, not James. Yeshua's brother says that faith without works. What are works? Yes, good deeds, but worshiping Him, following Him. Pick up your cross and follow Him. No one's picking up their cross and following Him if they're not keeping the commandments. They're just not. If they're not celebrating Sabbath, that's not picking up your cross. If you're not celebrating the new month, you're not celebrating these seven feast days, you're not picking up your cross. You're just not. You're just not. I'm here to tell you because I love you. And Yeshua loves you, but you're just not if you're not celebrating Him in the way that He said, and not what you want to do, what the church wants to do, what the Jews want to do, none of that. What He said. And if we can get that, if we can open our hearts to Him and love Him like that and say, "I want to follow You and I submit to You." How many Christians are doing that? Not many. Not many. Only the remnant is doing that. Not many. Not two billion for sure. Not one billion. No way. It's a narrow road. Few find it. Not many. Go read Matthew 22. We're going to read it on the feast days, the wedding feast of the Messiah. Nobody wants to go to... His people, the Jewish people. He invites the Gentiles in. And what does He say? "How did you get in here with a different garment on?" Think about that. Think about what you read in Revelation 3 tonight, the lukewarm church. "How did you get in here with a different garment on?" What does that mean? That means come a different way. Come through Christianity. Come through Judaism. Come through whatever-ism. How? I mean, come on, man. We've got to understand that. Then what does He say? "Many are called, few are chosen." Matthew 7. The many that are called go to the wide gate. Put them together. The few that are chosen go through the narrow gate. Very simple. Put those two together, Matthew 22, Matthew 7, and what He said about the few and the many. You have to put that together. That's just proper understanding. The few, the narrow gate are the few that are chosen. And then the many that are called are the many that will go to the wide gate. You want to be called, but my friends, you want to be chosen in the name and blood of Yeshua, the Messiah, the everlasting God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and David, the Seed of David, and the Seed of Abraham, the line of the tribe of Judah, and who is the Holy One of Israel, and who expects us to be holy as well because He is holy. Basham Yeshua HaMashiach, in the name and blood of Yeshua. Amen. Amen. And amen.

Friends, thank you very much for being with us tonight. I really appreciate you being with us on the video. However long you've been with us, I really appreciate it. I know sometimes it's a tough conversation, but at the same time, it's really not if one wants to follow God. So, please don't take my zealousness for personal attacks or whatever. It is what it is. The truth is the truth. The facts are the facts. The Christians are out of alignment. The Jews are out of alignment. Period. And if you love them, Ezekiel 33, speak it out. If not, the blood could be on my hands and your hands. It's not going to be on my hands because I'm going to speak it out. But at the same time, I'm here to challenge you as a brother who loves you to speak it out responsibly whenever the opportunity comes and whenever the Holy Spirit provokes you to do it. But however, doing that, you have to have the proper knowledge to do that, to both Jews and to both Christians, with the calendar and the days. The Jewish people will never listen to anybody out there. In all due respect, I love them to death. At the same time, the facts are the facts. They're not going to listen to your New Testament. They're not going to listen to your witness or whatever. They're going to listen to what the Torah tells them. And if you can show them that Yeshua, the Messiah, fulfilled these events perfectly through Leviticus 23, Exodus 12, and the Gospel accounts, that would be a great start. Because no one can debate that. Only a fool would debate that. Because He fulfilled them perfectly like the Jewish Messiah should. So if we can relate to the Jewish people on what they understand, because they're not going to listen to your Christmas, Easter, and Sunday Sabbath, then you would be able to relate to them and get a conversation going and saying, "Wow, isn't that amazing in the New Testament, in the Gospel accounts, Yeshua fulfilled these things perfectly because so the Jewish Messiah had to." And go search it out. Jewish people, calendar and feast days. Christians, go search it out as well. Islam, go search it out as well. So again, this is not for one party; this is for mankind. Mankind needs to wake up because He is about to put a curse on this earth and He is going to test this earth to see who loves Him and His Father and keeps His commandments. And that's where we are, folks. It's not going to get better; it's going to get worse. There's going to be a false peace, of course, and then it's going to be the time whenever that comes. So, thank you very much again for being with us tonight, my friends. And now we'll go through the comments. Shalom to you, Evan. Thank you so much for joining us tonight. I hope all is well, brother. And if you're on the East Coast yet, just give me a shout. Thank you so much, man. Hope all is well. Mr. Sam, thank you so much for joining us tonight. Shalom. Shalom to you. And I really appreciate you coming. Hopefully all is well in Atlanta. Hopefully it's not hot Atlanta. Hopefully it's getting cooler. And I really appreciate you joining us tonight. I hope you have a great feast season. Mr. Evans, same to you, my friend. Have a great feast season as well. Miss Sandra, thank you so much for joining us. Thank you for being with us for these years that you've been with us. I really appreciate it, and we hope you and your family are doing well, and we hope you guys have a great feast season as well. Let me just put that up while we're talking about it. Miss Wanda, always a pleasure to see you. Thank you so much for everything that you do for us. We really appreciate it, and shalom to you, and we hope you have a great feast season as well. Mr. Michael, shalom to you, my friend. Hope all is well. Great to see you again, and we hope you have a great feast season as well. Mr. Michael, "I listen to audio Bible online every day." Amen and Hallelujah. You say it best. It's time to grow up. And you're exactly correct. It's time for all of us to grow up. Quit being offended. Let's look at the truth, and wherever the truth lands, that's where our feet and our heart posture and our mindset stands as well. I don't like Joel. Well, nothing personally against Joel Osteen, but he's just preaching a false gospel. Period. I mean, so if you want a motivational speech, you want a lemon cake, you want a Dunkin Donuts coffee, go to his church and many, many other of those as well. In the United States of America, the church in America is absolutely dead and lukewarm at best. And both will get you cast out of the kingdom. Okay, that's just the bottom line. Denise, shalom to you, my friend. Thank you so much for joining us. And Wanda, you've been with us a long time as well. We really appreciate it. Thank you very much for your knowledge and everything that you do for us, your emails, and we hope you and your family have a beautiful feast season. Amen. Kell Cow, she's another person who has been with us for a couple of years now. Man, some of these people probably been here before I was here. You know what I'm saying? Before the beginning, they were here, and then I came. So, thank you so much for being with us tonight. We really appreciate it, as always, for joining us on the lives or on the replays. And we hope you and your family, y'all have a beautiful, blessed feast season ahead. And we hope to see all of you guys on the feast. They won't be as intense as this, but I still hope to see you guys on the feast days. Chadwick, I can't believe we have come this far. Yeah, absolutely. It's been a long time, hasn't it? We've learned a lot, right? Haven't we? Me, I especially have learned a lot, and I thank you so much for being with us. "I love your teaching style and dedication to study and share." Well, thank you. Hallelujah. Praise God and blessings to you and all. Well, same to you, and we hope you guys have a beautiful feast season. Thank you so much. Miss Denise, "Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation, ready to be revealed in the last time." 1 Peter chapter 1, verse 5. Amen. "Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation." Yeshua, "ready to be revealed in the last time." Amen. Excuse me, everybody. Mr. Michael, "I don't want to take the mark of the beast." And you will not, my friend. I mean, you will not. Of course you won't. So, I wouldn't be worried about that. You're on the days, you're on the Sabbaths, you're on the new moons, you're on all these things that you're not going to take the mark of the beast because you have knowledge. And it says those who don't have knowledge will perish. Not you, because you do have knowledge, my friend. "How can I get ready for the tribulation? I'm disabled and I have cerebral palsy." Yes, I do know that, and you will be just fine, my friend. Don't worry about that. We're not at the tribulation yet. We have at least three years before that on the Shmita cycle. 2029 to 2036 is the next seven-year cycle. Right now, we're about to enter into the sixth year. Is it? I'd have to count. Fifth year. Yeah, we're about to enter into the fifth year. So, we have three more years. We're not going to see anything on this Shmita cycle because we're at the end of the, or we're past the halfway mark to the end of it. So, we're again to the fifth year of the cycle, the sixth, the Shmita year itself, and then the new cycle. So, while I'm speaking about the Shmita year or cycle, if one doesn't understand that, let me explain that just really quick. Leviticus, excuse me, Leviticus 25 goes through a seven-year cycle that Israel was commanded to keep. And then on the seventh year, they had to let the land rest. So, that is very prophetic. Why is that prophetic? Well, Jeremiah 30 says that the time of Jacob's trouble will come at the end. Well, that ties into the seven-year cycle on Leviticus 25 because remember Jacob worked seven extra years for Rachel. So, he had to work seven extra years. The time of Jacob's trouble, the character in Genesis. So, that's where Jeremiah was getting it from was the trouble that he had to work with with Laban for seven extra years. So, then we go to Daniel's 70th week, and it's a, the last seven is a Shmita. I mean, that's just proper biblical understanding from Genesis, the Jacob's trouble, the character, through, obviously, the commandment, Leviticus 25, to Jeremiah 30, is a seven-year cycle. People call it the seven-year tribulation. Okay, fine. But biblically speaking, it is the time of Jacob's trouble. And please, my Jewish friends, please understand that. Time of Jacob's trouble, is what it says. Then he will be delivered. Time of Jacob's trouble, seven years, then the redemption. Not the redemption. Now, we have too... I listen to a lot of people in general, and some of the people I listen to are the Orthodox. I like to know what people are talking about. There are too many Orthodox rabbis right now who are thinking that the redemption is right now. No, they're going to be in for a surprise of their life when Nebuchadnezzar, a Nebuchadnezzar figure, comes to Jerusalem. This is not the redemption. We're in the Iranian kingdom right now. That's pretty obvious. The second kingdom of four. We have Turkey to come. Pretty obvious they're coming next. Then we have the beast kingdom with Neba, or a Nebuchadnezzar figure, military commander, coming. So, we have a process, but this is not the time of the redemption. This is the beginning of judgment, is what this is. The time of Jacob's trouble is coming, but he will be saved out of it. Praise God. The covenant with death, Isaiah 28, but it will be annulled. Goodness. So, death first, then anointment. Trouble first, then salvation. Please, there's a trouble coming, a covenant with death coming, but they will be saved out of it. The remnant will, a third of them will. And then you, Zechariah 13, the third. And then you've got the covenant with death. But Yeshua will anoint that covenant with death that they make with the beast. So, I just see too many rabbis saying that this is the redemption. The Messiah is on the ground. The Messiah is alive, which they're correct. He's alive at the right hand of God right now, waiting on the verdict on the Shmita cycle, on the Feast of Trumpets to come and pour out His wrath to save them, whoever is going to put their faith in Him at this time. So, we're going to have to see what happens. That's why we have to do our part with Jews and Christians. So, my friends, it's super important to know the Shmita cycle. I probably need to do more videos on that. It's in the book that I wrote. If you want a free copy of it, please go to my website. Let me put the website back up. And if you sign up, and it's the only way I can get you the book, if you give me your email, I will send you a free copy of the book. And it goes through the Shmita cycle, the importance of it, and all of these things. But to make it simple, Jacob's trouble, seven extra years. Jeremiah 30 went off of that saying that Israel is going to have seven bad years at the end. And then we get the understanding in Leviticus 25 of when that cycle is. And that cycle is right now in the coming Feast of Trumpets here in two days, two nights, on the fifth year of the seven. And then the seventh year coming in two years is normally a bad year. Why is it a bad year? Because of everybody's disobedience. If you look at America on the Shmita cycle the last 60 years, excuse me, since 1966, which is about 60 years, isn't it? Somewhere in there. Then you're going to see America, and I'm going to do a video on this. You will see America every seventh year, boom, boom, boom, judgment, judgment, judgment, judgment, trying to get us awakened up. I don't know about Israel. They've been in the land for 78 years now, isn't that correct? 78 years. So, I'd have to go do the research. But my American friends, you need to understand that boy, we are in one bad situation with all of these presidents going over to the Middle East where empires do die over there. I've gone through that many times before. The British Empire died with the Suez Canal, or not, they died before that, but they completely sealed their fate when they went to Egypt and fought Egypt at the Suez Canal. They won the military battle, but they lost the war and they collapsed. The sun set on their empire because why? It was the empire that said the sun would never set on. God had a different opinion. It set on them. Soviet Union before they became Russia. What happened? They went to Afghanistan. Go watch Rambo 3. You'll get a great understanding of that. If you like Stallone, if you don't, don't. But if you want to go watch that, it'll give you an understanding. The Afghans, you can't beat these people. I think they proved that to the Soviets, and guess what? They collapsed, bankrupt. I mean, I don't know what people understand about history. They don't. That's what happens. Their pride, their ego, and right now, it's the American empire that's dying on the vine. Everybody, I think that's pretty simple to understand. And the Donald will not pull you out of this. I can guarantee you that right now. Just like I've said before he was elected, people were deceived. One of the greatest scams in the world, this last election for sure, because everybody bought into that, Christians and Jews, and look, or not everybody, but you know what I'm saying. I'm just generalizing. And look what happened. Look what's happening. There's no way out of this. It will be the ruin of the American Empire with the Middle East, just like it was with Britain, just like it was with Russia or the Soviet Union. Collapse. Collapse. You will not beat these people. Even Yemen, not the Houthis, but Yemen. The Houthis weren't around then. Yemen, they ran the Ottoman Empire out. So again, these people, again, Yemen is one of the poorest countries in the world, if not the poorest. You think these people care? No, they do not. I can show you a video when the Donald thought he could bomb the Houthis into submission. I saw a live video, and I'll try to find it, that there was this man sitting in... I don't know what he was doing, so I'm not sure, but he was either doing a sew-in or whatever, and he had a little kid, a little kid beside him. And the left side of it was an open area. Well, the Americans bombed a building there. I mean, it was a huge explosion. That guy was just sitting there doing his thing. He didn't budge. He didn't flinch. He didn't do nothing. The little kid, now, the little kid jumped up, he was scared to death. But the guy who, I guess, has seen all this stuff, he was just, "Okay, who cares?" You know, there's just a different mindset over there that the American government does not understand. For 25 years, the stupid American presidents and government thinks that they can go impose their will on these people. That is the stupidest thing I think I've ever heard in my life. Seriously, I'm not using that as a... I'm saying honestly speaking, I've never thought someone could be so stupid as we are in America and Israel. Benjamin Netanyahu is really who I'm talking about, and four American presidents, and now it's the Donald. So, we've got to understand, look at your debt, look at the judgment, take your American pride out because that pride's going to be broken, and it should be breaking right now. If you look at everything going on with gas prices, oil prices, diesel prices, you name it, energy prices. I read an article the other day that it's estimated the US citizen has paid an extra $100 billion in energy costs. How you like that for the golden age, Americans? I mean, what an absolute sham. Our United States elections and government, and yes, and have to put it on Trump for that. What a sham. Everybody got shammed, man. And if people can wake up to that and quit putting their faith in Donald Trump and put their faith in God, then this country might be a little bit better off instead of all this idolatry and cult that he has produced with the Christians, especially. But again, if the Christians are deceived in all this other stuff, then why don't you think they're going to be deceived with Donald Trump or Barack Obama or Biden or Bush or whoever else, Netanyahu? Why don't you think they're going to be deceived with that? They're already deceiving all this other stuff, calendars, feast days, covenants. They have no clue. So, of course, He's going to turn them over.

The world's politicians are attempting to resolve the nation's debt, but the math shows a grim reality. America's debt is 40 trillion dollars. If the country were to earn a million dollars a day, it would take 108,000 years to pay off this debt. This is an impossible scenario. The speaker believes that the nation needs to humble itself and get on its knees before redemption can be seen. This correction is an act of love from God. The accounts are due, and the consequences of past actions are coming home.

The speaker criticizes the nation's involvement in the Middle East, citing the killing of children, specifically 168 in Iran, without apology. This is described as the work of murderers. The speaker questions how Christians and Jews can be so bloodthirsty as to not recognize the shame of such actions. Those who support such actions are considered guilty.

Regarding Israel, the speaker acknowledges Hamas as evil but also questions the actions of the Israeli government. The Hannibal Directive is mentioned, which reportedly means they kill their own people to prevent them from being taken hostage. The speaker asks where this is found in the Torah and states that this is a historical fact, citing the defense minister's statement on Israeli television. Innocent blood has been shed by the Israeli government, not just by others. Moses' teachings on spilling innocent blood are referenced. The speaker believes in fairness and balance, even if it offends people.

The speaker criticizes the lack of personal and national accountability, calling it cowardly. Benjamin Netanyahu is singled out for not taking responsibility for the events of October 7th, instead pushing blame onto others for political reasons. The speaker believes Netanyahu has brought Israel to the brink, comparing it to Nebuchadnezzar's actions. Those who supported Netanyahu are questioned, and respect is expressed for the few Israeli government officials who admitted their fault. Netanyahu is called a child for not taking responsibility, unlike a true leader.

The speaker also touches on the events of 9/11, calling it a sham orchestrated by the Bush family. The speaker notes the irony of a Bush being in office during both 9/11 and JFK's assassination. The speaker questions the decision to go to Afghanistan and Iraq instead of Saudi Arabia, where the majority of the 9/11 perpetrators were from. The speaker blames George W. Bush for not keeping the country safer and suggests he should have resigned. The response to 9/11, with 93% of Americans supporting military action, is seen as a mistake, leading to embarrassment in Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, and Libya, and the killing of two million civilians. The speaker states that the channel is not for those who believe two million civilians should be killed.

The speaker references Revelation 3:10, interpreting it not as the tribulation but as the "days of awe," the ten days between the trumpets and Yom Kippur.

Regarding Revelation 3:14, the speaker explains that "the beginning of the creation of God" refers to Yeshua (Jesus) being with God in the beginning, as stated in John 1. Yeshua is identified as the Amen, the faithful and true witness, and the beginning of God's creation, the light of the world.

The speaker discusses the importance of keeping God's commandments, referencing John 14:15 and John 15. The speaker believes that if commandments are not kept, one does not abide in God's love. The speaker criticizes Christians for not reading their Bibles and for being stiff-necked, prideful, and in rebellion, which leads to judgment. Rebellion is equated to the sin of witchcraft, as stated in 1 Samuel.

The speaker references Romans 1:24-28 and 2 Thessalonians 2:11-12, explaining that God sends a strong delusion to those who refuse to love the truth and choose wickedness, such as pagan celebrations like Christmas and Easter, and the replacement of the Sabbath. These are defined as wickedness and evil according to the Bible. The speaker mentions generational curses from ancestors practicing such things.

The speaker discusses the destruction of Jerusalem in 586 BC and AD 70, and the coming of another Nebuchadnezzar, referred to as the Antichrist. The statue in Daniel chapter 2 is mentioned, and the number 666 is linked to the Antichrist and Nebuchadnezzar.

The speaker discusses the upcoming Feast of Trumpets (Yom Teruah), the Shabbat, and the new month, calling it a "triple anointing." The importance of the Shabbat as a divine appointment and a covenant is emphasized, stating that the new covenant does not replace it but includes it. The speaker believes Christians are out of covenant if they are not celebrating the Shabbat and other biblical feasts.

Regarding Romans 8:1, the speaker states there is no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus who walk not after the flesh but after the spirit. However, if one walks after the flesh and paganism, there is condemnation and judgment. The spirit of the Torah, not just the letter, is important, as the letter can kill, but the spirit revives.

The speaker addresses Romans 3:31, stating that faith in Yeshua does not nullify the Torah; rather, it establishes it. This means believers should be set apart and give an example to others. The speaker also touches on Galatians 3:13, explaining that Yeshua broke the curse of the Torah, which is hell or being lawless. The speaker asserts that Paul's writings are often taken out of context due to rebellion.

The speaker expresses a strong dislike for Constantine and criticizes the concept of a "golden age" as a sham and a Freemason term. The speaker believes that if one is not drinking the "American Kool-Aid," it's common sense that 9/11 was an inside job and a false flag event. The speaker expresses a lack of trust in the American government, regardless of the president, and criticizes the election of "clowns" over the past 26 years, attributing the nation's problems to these decisions. The speaker also criticizes American pride and racism, stating that Americans have killed more civilians than terrorists.

The speaker believes that Iran is the superpower and that America and Israel will not defeat Iran, citing Daniel 10 and Ezekiel 38. The speaker questions why anyone would think Israel and America will defeat Iran when there are 90 million Shia ready for Armageddon. The speaker suggests that American pride is being crushed, which is not a bad thing, and that America needs to become a Western Hemisphere superpower rather than having military bases worldwide. The speaker notes that Iran has destroyed 15 American bases.

The speaker criticizes Donald Trump for having bases destroyed under his presidency and for the reported deaths of hundreds of people, stating that no other president has allowed this to happen. The speaker also criticizes both Trump and Joe Biden for their age and perceived cognitive decline, suggesting they are "dozing off."

The speaker reiterates that 9/11 was an inside job and a false flag event designed to instill fear and dependency on the government. The speaker believes that the spirit of fear is used to manipulate Americans, especially Christians, to support the weapons industry. The speaker warns that judgment is here and that Islamists are activating in America as judgment on Christians and Jews for the evil done overseas. The speaker emphasizes the need for a heart posture towards children and civilians, as judgment may come to one's own family. The speaker states that American and Israeli pride will be broken, as God hates pride. The speaker admits that America and Israel behaving as they have is a curveball, as they appear worse than the enemy.

The speaker discusses the wedding garment, referencing Revelation 19:11, where believers are clothed in white. The speaker also mentions the white garments worn by the high priest on the Day of Atonement.

The speaker expresses disinterest in the topic of aliens, considering it a distraction from biblical prophecies. The speaker believes that the "alien agenda" is a strong delusion and advises focusing on biblical prophecies.

The speaker addresses the pronunciation of God's name, stating that they personally use "Yah" as it is found in Isaiah 12. The speaker admits to not having done extensive research on the matter and chooses to "zip it" when uneducated.

Regarding Dolly Parton, the speaker expresses indifference and sadness if she practices witchcraft, but states she is irrelevant. The speaker acknowledges that witchcraft exists in Louisiana and Appalachia and that rebellion is considered witchcraft according to Samuel. The speaker also believes Washington D.C. is a hub of witchcraft, pedophilia, and homosexuality, and criticizes religions for being in bed with politicians and losing their tax exemptions.

The speaker disagrees with the idea that Saul (Paul) was a liar and never met Jesus, but acknowledges that many people hold this belief. The speaker states that they follow the Father and the Son and adhere to the Torah, Prophets, and Psalms, and Gospels. While the speaker loves the New Testament, it does not dictate their worship. The speaker believes Paul's writings confirm many things but are not dictatorial.

The speaker acknowledges the claim that King James, who sponsored the King James Version Bible, was homosexual, but cannot confirm or deny it. The speaker reiterates their focus on the Father, the Son, the Torah, Prophets, Psalms, and Gospels.

Your handle, by the way. Moscow, Idaho 94. Pretty cool. He's probably putting on because 1 Corinthians 14:28 says, "Don't speak in tongues without an interpreter present." That's correct. Yeah, I mean, that's correct for sure. And there are a lot of people who are out of alignment with that as well, to your point, for sure in the Christian church. They speak in tongues, but there's no interpreter, and that goes against what our friend here just posted in 1 Corinthians 14:28.

Again, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob had 0% Hebrew DNA because Abraham was from Iraq. Yes, Abraham was called a Hebrew, and he did cross over. So, yeah, I would disagree with that. So yes, he was from the Babylon, Babel area. He was Iraqi. And that's why I tell people, Abraham was Iraqi. So why don't you love the Iraqis? I don't care what they are. Love them because Abraham was an Iraqi, and God loves that area obviously because he got Abraham. Isaac and Jacob came after that.

So, most biblical scholars agree Paul the Apostle, who never met Jesus, was a liar. That's their opinion, and your opinion, and okay. All right. Tiny Hats claim the thing on their flag is the Star of David, but there is no such thing as a Star of David. The TV preacher in Texas who said Trump is the second Messiah just got arrested for having a meth lab in his church's basement. Oh, goodness gracious. And I think some guy down there, pedophilia with his grandson down in Florida, I forget the guy's name, who sponsored Ron DeSantis and who came up with a law saying that they should be executed. So it'll be interesting since he committed the crime if he's going to be executed. You can go look that case up. That's pretty interesting to see what happens. And all the political serpents and vipers probably will get him out of it. But he made the law that executes people who did, you know, children, and he did it to his own grandson. And I don't remember the guy's name, and I don't really care, but you can look it up. And there's a lot of pedophilia going on, my friends, in the Republican party. There's a lot of pedophilia going on in the Democrat party, everybody. People need to wake up and understand there's a lot of homosexuality going on with both of them up there. I mean, go just look, go poke around. Go poke around. Yes, go search it out is what I'm trying to say. That's actually hilarious. The TV preacher in Texas who said Trump is the second Messiah, what an evil guy, just got arrested for having a meth lab in his church's basement. That's pretty funny. Good for him.

Joe Rogan said Christianity was built by a liar named Saul Paul, who never met Jesus but claimed he had a dream on. Again, not a I don't even listen to Joe Rogan. So, okay, he can have his opinion. Light, spotlessness, grace, linen, fasting. There you go. I like it. Very good. Delight, spotlessness, grace, linen, fasting, prayers, or incense, you know, and all of the above. I agree with you, Monster. That's great. That's impressive. Yeah, all of the above. And I would put the incense of the prayers and that comes to mind since you were kind of leading me there, you know. So, thank you for that. That's very informative. Miss Denise, having Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior as your wedding garment. Amen to that. Amen to that. Okay, let's see here. Moscow, the Rothschilds traded Christians good when they hired Cyrus Scofield to edit the KJV Bible. Boom. Yes. And I've already read that one before. And Miss Jess, 1 Corinthians 15:6-8: "After that, he was seen of above 500 brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James, then of all the apostles. And last of all, he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time." And she concludes Paul saw Jesus, and people still see Jesus today. Hallelujah. Praise the Lord. Amen and amen and amen. Thank you very much for that, Miss Jess. Really appreciate it.

And that leads us to the end of the comments and the end of the evening. It's been a pleasure to be with you tonight. I really appreciate everybody for being with us, however long you've been with us. We really do appreciate your support with this stuff. I know some of these things are tough for us to all understand, but He wants us to be in these things. And I know we all agree on these things. And I don't say it to no one who's crossed over. I say it to everybody who has not crossed over, and the majority of you have crossed over. So these videos like this are never for the people who usually come on Faithful Performance. These are the videos for the Christians and the Jews who are sneak-peeking on here on YouTube. It's for them to provoke them to jealousy of what we are seeing today.

So, my friends, always remember the times and the seasons, and you will not be caught as a thief in the night because it's a double reward. Number one, to observe, in spirit and in truth. And then the reward that you all get, and the reward that I get, is we get to understand the prophetic understanding of these events at the end of the age so that we are not caught as a thief in the night. That is it. Obedience brings rewards. And your reward right now, right now, is this knowledge. Why? Because my people perish for lack of knowledge, not faith. They perish for lack of knowledge. So, thank God. Thank Yah, who's opened all of our eyes, man. And that's why I do what I do. I mean, if He did not open my eyes to what He has with the calendar and the days, just like He opened up all of your eyes, I wouldn't be doing what I'm doing. I just would not. It provoked me to jealousy what He did. And boy, He provoked me hard to jealousy. And I told Him I'd speak it out. And I pray that I do. I pray that I do.

Man, it reminds me of a dream that one of my friends had in Nashville, Tennessee. This was eight years ago, somewhere in there. She told me this. We were at a convention, one of those NRB conventions, those National Religious Broadcasters convention, at up there where is it? Bridgestone? Not Bridgestone. Not in the other one. I can't even think of it. It doesn't matter. But anyhow, she said to me, she said, "Chadwick, I had a dream that one time I was dreaming, and all the Christians were in my dream." You know, she said, "I just saw many Christians." And she said they had duct tape over their mouth. And then there was an audio voice she said that she heard that said, "These are the ones that don't speak it out." That's always stuck with me. Always. I was four years born again when she told me that. And that really stuck with me majorly, that the Christians need to step it up, okay? And get sanctified, get purified, and get in His feast days, His divine appointments, or they'll be caught as a thief in the night according to the Apostle Paul in 1 Thessalonians 5. It's how serious it is, man. Get in, or like Yeshua says, "I never knew you. Get out." That's what He says. How can we know Him if we're not celebrating the way that He said, the way that He said? Not the way that your church says, your pastor says, your priest says, your synagogue says, your rabbi says. Good gosh, these people are so deceived. They don't know how to teach people. Who are you going to follow? Man, bail, or are you going to follow God? Which one are you going to do? Most of you are following God. But if you're out there and you're not, and you're celebrating Christmas, Easter, and Sunday, I'm here to tell you as a testimony and as a witness to the Holy Bible, you are in danger. Danger. Serious danger. His grace does not cover you breaking His commandments every week, and every month, and every year, for the rest of your life, for all of your life. It just does not. It just does not. I didn't get that memo. He told me to get in alignment, is what He told me. He told me my life was a lie. And I had a cross around my neck, Christmas, Easter in my back pocket, and ain't life grand? No way, Jose. He said, "Get in alignment," or I wouldn't even be here. I don't think if I didn't get in alignment, I think He would have taken me from this earth. He would have, in my opinion. It's up to Him. He would have.

So, my friends, most of you I do know because you've been with us before the beginning or at the beginning. Some of you I don't. And I love you to tell you, search it out. Don't believe me. Search it out, is what I leave you with. Search out your heart. Do you love God or do you not? Or don't you? Which one? Search it out because your Master, who you say you love, Christians, says this: "If you love me, you will." Not maybe. "You will keep my commandments." Not some of them. Not a few of them. Not cherry-picking the Ten Commandments. Okay. The Sabbath is Sunday. Get it out of here. Get that away from me, Satan, and get with your Creator and your Maker and your Savior in the name and blood of Yeshua, the Messiah. Amen. And amen and amen.

And before we commence, I want to do my job and I want to be respectful of this question here since I was respectful to everybody else. I can't even pronounce the handle. Please forgive me. But shalom to you. Thank you so much for joining us. We're about to close out, but I will answer the question to the best of my ability, if I understand it correctly, if I have the education to answer it. But thank you very much, everybody, for being with us.

If the bride and the groom are waiting to be married, are the children being produced illegitimate? I don't even know how to answer that question, and I'll just let everybody answer that question for themselves. I think that's probably the best thing. If the bride and the groom are waiting to be married, are the children being produced illegitimate? I think that's the question for all of us of what I just said. You know, to be quite frank with you, either get in, get out. That's the question, my friends.

We are headed towards some beautiful days. The days, the Feast of Trumpets, Yom Teruah, Yom Kippur, where the verdicts are given. Where the verdicts are given. Please look it up. The verdicts are given during this time period coming up. Ten days to be weighed in the balance, the nations and the individuals. I don't care who knows about it, who doesn't, they're still being weighed in the balance. And that's why the anointing of God's stars this month coming up is scales, Libra, scales, because we're all weighed in the balance. And my friends, I'll talk about it more when we get to the 10 days of awe. From what my two eyeballs see, the two countries that I love the most, the Christians and the Jewish people, they need to be getting on their knees right now and praying for these two countries not to get gobbled up here next year and the following years, even though we will get gobbled up. But boy howdy, if we come together and pray for God's hand to stay, who knows? Who knows if He won't deliver us and leave a blessing behind? Okay, that's the prophet Joel, by the way.

So, my friends, I don't again, this is a everybody can be whatever. This is a serious time. This is a very serious time for America, for Israel, and for the world, and for the inhabitants of the world, because the inhabitants of the world have lost their minds with religion, with their religion, with their religion, and their religion can go to hell as far as the Bible is concerned. Christianity, go to hell because you don't follow God's commandments, His Sabbath, His Passover, His Tabernacles. Judaism, go to hell because you don't observe Yeshua the Messiah. I'm not talking about the word of God. Talking about the religion only. They do not observe the Jewish Messiah.

A friend of mine called me. I was about to get offline, but things keep coming. So, I'll just keep rolling with the spirit. A friend of mine called me the other day, Dallas, Texas, very good friend of mine. I won't mention his name because most of you will know him that's been on the channel, etc. He said, "Chadwick, because I don't like to bring someone else's stuff, I like to just say it from my point of view so people can criticize me instead of him." But he told me this. He said, "Man, I have a friend I had a friend over there who loves Israel, loves the Jewish people. She went over there to be a part of, you know, I guess Christians for Jewish people, whatever, some of these organizations. Beautiful. I love it." And she said when she got into the interview, the Orthodox Jewish person asked her, "Who's the Messiah?" And she said, "Yeshua or Jesus." And they said, "You got two days to leave the country. Two days to leave the country," is what they told her. Okay, there's no reason this man would lie to me. There's no reason this young lady would lie to him. Why would she? She loves the Jewish people. She loves Israel. But what a sham. Because they believe in Yeshua, the Messiah. The Orthodox said, "You got to leave." That's what's coming to Israel, everybody. The Jewish believers will be persecuted, and the Christians will be persecuted. Go read Luke 21, what your Master said. And your Master said, "When they bring you up," who's they? Well, He's about to tell you, "When they bring you up to the synagogues," well, good gosh, the Orthodox, the Orthodox, they're going to persecute you. And when they bring you up to the courts, they're going to persecute you. What's that? The Israeli government. So, the Israeli government and the Orthodox Jews will persecute the Jewish believers and the Christians. So again, Christian Zionists, who are you supporting, persecuting our believers over there, our Jewish believers, with your false eschatology of them trying to conquer the greater Israel, which will never happen. Please understand what's coming. My Jewish friends over there, my Jewish believer friends over there, my Christian friends over there. I love Israel. I plan to go back many times until they tell me to leave. But I'm gonna still go over there because I love them. And more importantly, I love God. To tell them, and they can tell me to leave, whatever. And that's fine. But I'm going to speak it out, just like this young lady did. She did not deny her Savior because of political Israel. She stood up for her Savior, and it got her out of Israel. "Leave," is what they told her. Two days, get out. What a disgrace for the Israeli government and the Orthodox to do that. But Yeshua said they're going to persecute you in Luke 21. And He called the leadership of Israel at His time, and He would call them this time as well. Right now, serpents and vipers. Go look at what they say about your Messiah over there. And go look at how they're treating the Jewish believers and also the Christians, as the Gentile Christians as well. It's coming, everybody. Everybody can get butt hurt all they want about this government stuff, but I don't care about these governments at all because they're leading the Israelis and the Americans to the gutter. And I think that's pretty obvious when you look at the stats. Pretty obvious. That's the only thing that matters right now is the Great Commission. Not political Zionism, not Christian nationalism, all these isms and schisms. It's not about any of that.

Bridget, thank you so much for joining us. And if I didn't greet you a while ago, please forgive me. Please forgive me. Shalom to you. Thank you so much, as always, for joining us. Bridget, I hope you're having a good week, and I hope you have a beautiful feast season ahead. And may you and your family, and everybody else's family, excuse me, get the righteous rendered verdicts from the Most High God. Amen. And amen and amen. Those in Christ Jesus are not illegitimate. Amen to that. And follow the commandments. John 3:5: "Jesus answered, 'Verily, verily, I say unto you, except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.'" Amen to that. Thank you, Jess. "That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit." That's one of the two. We're either flesh, living in the flesh, or walking in the Spirit, and that's up to us to choose that, right? Thank you so much, Jess. Miss Denise, this is a testimony as well, and this is part of it. My husband and I went into a synagogue with the Bible, and they said they rejected that. Of course, they do. They think Yeshua in their mind, the Jewish Orthodox mind, or to Orthodox, Yeshua is blasphemy to them. Please understand how they look at it. That's not saying they hate the Jewish people, everybody. I love the Jewish people, but I'm not going to decline. I'm not going to be cow-towing to them because of what I believe in and what I know that is coming to them, which is the time of Jacob's trouble. Not Turkey's trouble, not Iran's trouble, not the Hamas's trouble, the time of Jacob's trouble. And that's what the Orthodox needs to understand. That's what the Orthodox needs to understand. And also whoever else in Israel that doesn't believe that. And also the pagan Israeli government as well. The rebellious Israeli government, and they will be brought to their knees during the tribulation. That pride will be broken. Ben Gvir, smoke Netanyahu, and all this evil coming out of their mouth. Burn all of Lebanon. Who in the world says that other than a racist? Smoke, racist. Netanyahu, racist. Period. I mean, go look at what they're saying. Let's go move 250,000 Gazans out in the first year. Ben Gvir, you tell me. God says to take care of the sojourners, to take care of the foreigners in the land, not to get them out. Not everybody's a terrorist over there. I mean, yes, there's terrorists, and get them out. Go kill them. That's the point. They can't. They don't. But not everybody over there. A lot of Christians over there, everybody, that are Gazans. A lot of Christians in Lebanon that's been killed by the Israeli government. They're out of alignment, everybody. And I'm going to be fair and balanced. I'm not going to be partial because I love Israel and I biblical Israel and I love the Jewish people and the Israelis. I'm not going to be partial at all. And people can be butt hurt all they want, but that is the facts, Jack. They've killed their own people. The Israeli government has the Hannibal Directive. Go search it out. Go listen to the defense minister Gallant. He told you that. So don't believe me. I believe the defense minister at the time who said that they instituted the Hannibal Directive, and all the evidence points to that they murdered their own people. Some of them. Who in the world does that? Good gosh, the innocent blood crying from the ground.

So, anyhow, my friends, very serious time to be living in right now, and it's going to get only more serious. And you're going to see people fall away, just like Paul said tonight, what we read tonight, they're going to fall away. Fall away. Fall away. But Paul and all of the other people have told us that. They've told us that they were going to fall away. And then the son of perdition, and then Yeshua after that. And that's pretty much about the trajectory that we're on amongst the four kingdoms. Don't forget those four kingdoms when Turkey rocks Iran, which is coming, I believe, here in the next three, four, whatever years, two years, one year, tomorrow, whatever. We'll see what happens. Keep watching. But whenever Turkey becomes the big boy over there, the varsity team will come. It's time to really understand that you are right there at the door, just like Yeshua said.

So, friends, thank you very much for being with us tonight. I love you guys. It's going to be a long season. We're going to do a lot of videos during this time. So I'm going to try to not shorten the videos, but I'm going to try to visit and community, but at the same time, there's going to be a lot of videos coming ahead. So I'm going to try to save voice and stuff like that as much as possible. But again, I really appreciate everybody. Thank you very much for your zealousness. Thank you very much for your trust to Yah, trueness to Yeshua, trueness to the days. And my friends, we're about to enter into some beautiful days.

So, the next couple videos before I truly get off for the third or fourth time. Okay, I sound like a politician right now. Keep, you know, so any, please, I hope not. I pray not. Please forgive me. My goodness gracious. Get away from me, politicians. But anyhow, the next couple nights, Friday night is Shabbat. We'll be doing the Feast of Trumpets video because it's Yom Teruah. So, Shabbat, Yom Teruah, and also the new month. A triple anointing we're going to do. What a powerful time. You don't get those every day, everybody. A double anointing or triple anointing. This is a very intimate time. And then we're doing the day after on Shabbat day, we'll be doing a Courts of Heaven prayer like we do every Feast of Trumpets, you know, for the courts. And we'll go to the courts with our praises and our worship and our cleansing and our breaking off generational curses. And then I'll leave it for a little while so everybody can petition their cases in the Courts of Heaven, and then we'll close them out and again see what the Lord does in your life. I think it's a very powerful understanding if you've never done that before, praying in the Courts of Heaven or praying the word of God to Yah in the throne room, if you will, during the time that He gives the verdicts for all of us, the individuals and the nations. Okay, so we'll be doing that on the hour of prayer at 3 PM on Saturday. Okay, I'll post that on Shabbat. We'll be doing it 3 PM. And I'll be posting that here tomorrow or whatever to give people enough time to prepare what they want to say or petition. And then we'll be doing the videos with Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel with the Day of the Lord. Again, the theme of the Day of the Lord, because we will be, prophetically speaking, the Day of the Lord. Trumpets, Yom Kippur is the Day of the Lord, the 10 days of awe. And then we'll be doing other videos as well with Yom Kippur. We'll be back with you, Feast of Tabernacles, Yeshua's birthday. There's something else I was going to do as well. So, we're going to be back with you several times, and we hope to see you. It's a very powerful time to go through these things, and we try to do our best to show you the scriptural proof of these things in the Holy Bible that is just really remarkable. So, we hope to see everybody there. It won't be an intense stuff like we went through tonight, but my friends, why we did it tonight is because we're stepping into these things. And do you know how many Christians come Friday nights going to be at Friday night lights? And how many people on Saturday is going to college football, you know, instead of celebrating the Feast of Trumpets, celebrating the day, the event, the Feast of Trumpets when Yeshua's going to return, and we're off in La La Land with worldly stuff. That's Christianity. Okay, sorry. I mean, that's just Christianity. They don't know anything. The times and the seasons. Sad. I don't mean that. It's just sad to me that people who say they love God are at some events that doesn't even matter, eternally speaking. Okay, I love football just as much as everybody. I do watch college football at night after Sunday on Saturday night, but this is God's day. This is His day, not my day. This is not my day to do my luxury, my stuff, or what I, my vanity. It's His day. His day. I'm not saying don't watch a football game, but don't leave Yah out either with what we should be doing with Him first. And then if you feel okay going to go watch a football game, please go do it. Let the Holy Spirit lead you. But this is His day, Sabbath, His feast day, Trumpets. And about two billion Christians will not be on these days. And to me, that's heartbreaking. To me, that's heartbreaking because I know it's heartbreaking to our Master, and it's heartbreaking to our Father in Heaven who wants you to observe what His Son's going to do eventually when He returns.

So, thank you everybody for being on. You don't need my thanks. He's going to give you thanks. He's going to give you rewards. He's going to give you blessings. He's going to coach you with that. I pray over you. I do. I pray over you right now, and I will during the feast days, that He blesses you for being true to Him. Blesses you for standing with Him in truth, in spirit, and in truth. And I just personally, as a brother, say thank you to you for loving God enough to follow His commandments because, like I always say, everybody loves Jesus until they have to follow the commandments, and then you really see who really loves Jesus. Okay, that is for sure. Jesus is the answer for the world today. Amen. And amen and amen.

Friends, have a good night. Have a good rest of the week. We hope to see you guys Friday night for Yom Teruah and on forward if you choose to be with us. There's a lot of great places to worship, I know that. So, we really appreciate you guys and ladies, of course, celebrating with us here at Faithful Performance. And until that time, may God bless you. May He keep you. May His face shine upon you and give you His grace. May He lift up His countenance upon you and your family and give you His shalom. And in the Hebrew, I deny analimai. Shalom. In the name of blood of Yeshua, Yeshua HaMashiach. Amen. Amen. And amen. Good night, everybody. Shalom to you, and we'll see you Friday night.

Lost to found, move me along.

The flood waters, higher ground.

Lord, guide me in Your arms so I don't lose my crown.

Forever I'll rest in Your arms, safe and sound.

Oh, forever I'll rest in Your arms, safe and sound.

Oh, safe and sound.
