I have been looking into prophecy lately by using my Bible and am amazed by what I have found this year…
I am always told what Jesus said in Matthew 24:36: “But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.” However, who was Jesus speaking to? Why did he tell his disciples what he did? And was it only in the context of their lifetimes? Another question would be: suppose the Jews had accepted Jesus as their Messiah, instead of murdering him?
Of course, that would not have been so good for the rest of the world, only Israel!
Paul says in Romans 11:11; I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? God forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy. My point being, Jesus “could have been” referring to the fall of Jerusalem in 70 AD? I don’t know, but I do know that most of Matthew is addressing Israel, and normally Jesus was chastising the Pharisees, most of whom were being wilfully blind given their knowledge of the scriptures (at the First Advent) when he was sent to be an atonement for sin (unbeknownst to Satan).
This brings me to a second point: 2,000 years later (without going into layer upon layer of prophetic Bible verses), in the King James Bible, I have found Revelation 3:3 is written like this…3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee. Note: this is for those who are not watching for Christ’s return. Indicating to me that if you are not asleep, the good possibility exists that you could know even perhaps the hour of Christ’s return.
This is only my opinion, but is it such a stretch of the imagination to say that Jesus may come back at the Feast of Trumpets? Other prophetic scripture like 1 Corinthians 15:52 (King James Version) 52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last TRUMP: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
I’m not scared to be wrong because of what men might say; I don’t need to be seen as credible while propping myself up, as I am fully aware how fallible I am. However, as a believer, it is my great hope that Jesus may return on this year’s Feast of Trumpets, September 11, 2026. Take a look at what Bible scholars before me have considered.
