While America is Busy with Climate Change, Christ is Getting Ready to Land On Earth And Rescue A Specific Church. But Which Church? The Answer should Shock You

By Shoebat Foundation on September 22, 2014

By Walid Shoebat (Shoebat Exclusive)
While America is busy with Climate Change, Christ is getting ready to land on planet earth to rescue a specific Church, but which Church?

But before we discuss this crucial topic, this is America taking action on Climate Change in which nearly half a million of us marched in New York City:

While, you might think, “the world is going nuts,” and “why should this matter since I would not be caught dead in a Climate Change demonstration with Al Gore”.

Alright, then.

When I started searching for churches here to see if they were marching to call upon America to stand up for Christians suffering, the task wasn’t easy. From all these millions upon millions of you who attend thousands of churches, to find any of your demonstrations in New York’s Manhattan or the White House fighting for the persecuted church simply didn’t exist. I finally found this:

But it was from 6 years ago and it was a bunch of Indian Christians fighting for their Christian brethren suffering persecution in India under the peace-loving religion of Hinduism.

And I wonder, what are all these Christians doing in their churches? If they are praising Jesus, He identified Himself, especially His body, in the persecuted: “For I was hungry and you gave me food …” and you all are familiar with our broken record repeating chapter 25 of the Book of Matthew.

Is it no wonder than why we do not find verses in which Jesus is landing in New York or Washington?

The only place in Scripture I find Jesus landing to rescue folks is in Zechariah 14 and Isaiah 19.

We all know that Zechariah 14 is about rescuing the Jews and converting them to Him, but Isaiah 19 should shock some folks and get us to ask, who and why is Christ coming for in Egypt:

“And it will be for a sign and for a witness to the LORD of Hosts in the land of Egypt; for they will cry to the LORD because of the oppressors, and He will send them a Savior and a Mighty One, and He will deliver them.” (Isaiah 19:20)

Here we have the “Mighty One” is the Messiah who fights on the day of the Lord to fight the oppressors. Here, see for yourself your brothers and sisters in Egypt suffering from the oppressors and calling for Jesus to come down and save them:

And where do we see such faith like this? Where do we see multitudes of Christians taking to the streets when there are 90% Muslims and in the face of such a massive threat the Copt stands for Christ, yet here, we fear a handful of bickering Muslims.

Christ was called “Mighty One”, Isaiah 19:20 leaves no question as to who Christ comes to rescue: “He will send them a Savior and a Mighty One, and He will deliver them.”

The Egyptian Coptics are increasingly being oppressed by the Muslim majority. But if God sees their cause as being so important to personally send His Son, the Savior and Mighty God to rescue them, then we need to ask: what are the Coptic Christians of Egypt doing right and what are they doing differently from the American Church?

He comes to rescue the Christians, the remnant in Egypt, the 10% Christians. There is no doubt that the “Savior” and “Mighty One” is Christ. In the Psalms, Messiah is portrayed as a soldier and a fighter with the same reference, “Mighty One”:

“Gird Your sword upon Your thigh, O Mighty One, With Your glory and Your majesty” (Psalm 45:3).

In Zephaniah 3 this “Mighty One” is physically present in Israel’s midst:

“The LORD your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will save” (Zephaniah 3:17)

He comes for Israel to convert the Jewish people to Him. And if in doubt that Christ lands in Egypt, explain this:

“See, Jehovah rides on a swift cloud and is coming to Egypt. The idols of Egypt tremble before him, and the hearts of the Egyptians melt within them” (Isaiah 19:1).

Who comes on the clouds? We also meet Him in the clouds. We even sing “Behold He comes riding on the clouds”, yet we eliminate Egypt from the song. Indeed, we are lacking. We eliminate essential clues from our songs we sing. Why?

This is Messiah personally coming to defeat Egypt. Obviously Egypt is a 90% Muslim nation with 10% Christians who will be caught up in the clouds and then landing to fight tyranny and Antichrist.

But here is the dilemma, the Egyptian Christians are Copts who believe that the bread and wine in the Eucharist are miraculously, and mysteriously, changed in to the Body and Blood of Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit. They also believe in the intercessions of the Virgin Mary or of the angels or of the saints.

Yet Christ is personally coming to rescue them and snatch them up in the clouds from the persecution by the Antichrist, the tyrant.

Ever think about it?

If Christ loves these, who are we to judge what He considers His brethren? Is it perhaps that even their theology is more sound than ours?

They even have a Pope; Pope Shenouda III (بابا الإسكندرية شنودة الثالث‎) Before his death on 17 March 2012, he wrote a thesis on responding to the western Protestant style Christianity and its in English.

He called for unity:

“We are in an age in which Ecumenical work and attempts towards the recovery of the Christian Unity have flourished. The meetings between the Churches, in councils, conferences and symposiums have increased, and the fields of co-operation and co-working have multiplied. However, unity is in a much higher level than cooperation. The Christian Unity should be built on the foundation of the “One Faith”. Thus began the theological discussions between the Churches. This book in your hands is a step in this theological discussion between our brethren the Protestants and us.”

Go ahead, read his work, its an eye opener.

My friends are concerned, why am I focused on the ancient East and Church Fathers in my theology lately? Some think I have gone mad because I do not sound like your typical tele evangelist prophecy teacher.

And why shouldn’t I focus on the east? The Coptic Christians are extremely devout to Christ. The coptic church is probably the most devoute and active church in the world. Their youth were raised in the church and are very close to their church community and are just as pious as their parents.

The Coptic Orthodox Church of Egypt was founded in the first century by St. Mark, one of the disciples of Jesus. St. Mark is regarded as the first patriarch of the Coptic Orthodox Church. He planted the Church in Alexandria, where he wrote his gospel—the Gospel of Mark, in the Greek language. After winning many converts to Christianity in several journeys, he was brutally martyred by pagans in the streets of Alexandria in 68 AD.

The Christian Church of Egypt (the Coptic Orthodox Church) produced world-wide distinguished Christian leaders and theologians who defended the Orthodox faith tirelessly.

I had asked a fellow Christian on my blog to tell me about St. Athanasius the Apostolic, the twentieth patriarch of Egypt (328-373) who fought the Arian heresy. She knew nothing and the name wasn’t interesting enough for her.


He is known for his staunch defense of the orthodox faith, St. Athanasius suffered exile from his See five times.

There was also St. Cyril the Great, the twenty-forth patriarch of the Coptic Church (412-444), refuted the Nestorian heresy. His theology is regarded by Christendom as the key to orthodoxy. At the time of his death, the Coptic Church occupied the position of undisputed leadership in the entire Christian world, and Christianity covered most of the land of Egypt.

Christ loves the Copts, and so will I. Not only will I love them, but I will also learn from the remnants of St. Mark, the apostle. We always talk Bible, yet we forget who wrote it and where they lived and what they said and how they interpreted it. If I want to know what Mark meant by certain verses, I will sure check with the Copts before I check with Rick Warren!

In america, a least on the pope gregory calendar, it is set and settled..

The barley determining the month, as I have described, is according to Torah.

When Jerusalem fell, the Jews could no longer reach Jerusalem - they could not determine the Holy days according to Torah. So the rabbis came up with what the Jews do now, which is a calculated sun/moon thing... That is how they can predict the months, But that is not what Torah says to do. And several sects of Judaism, to include the Karaites and Messianics, are returning to YHWH's calendar, according to the barley...

I couldn't care less what the Roman calendar has to say.

Shabbat Shalom.

Only to his elect!

To the rest of you pagan sun god worshipers, use any fake method you wish, since for you it matters not.

Only those that truly seek his rest will care enough to follow his word.

>> “It is after all partly how easter is determined on the same calendar: The first Sunday after the first full moon, after the spring equinox.” <<

Since Easter is a day of the sun god worshipers, and an abomination to Yehova, and his elect, Why would we care?

Sun god worshipers have many traditions that are of no consequence to the Bride of Yeshua.

False and false.

You attempted to sarcastically dismiss the commandments in Torah that define his year, and thus his feasts, with an irreverent and facetious comment about eating barley instead of Manna.

No cigar.

>> “What is interesting is what to do with Purim - IIRC. Purim is to be celebrated in Adar Bet if it exists, which suggests that the Jews had formalized their calendar away from Torah fairly early on, for they would have passed Purim if they waited for the new moon to determine the barley and declare Adar Bet accordingly... Go figger.” <<

.
The “Wormwood” people, such as Tim McHyde, ( http://www.escapeallthesethings.com/ ) have another answer for that.

They postulate that the original year was exactly 360 days. thus no “Adar Bet” was needed, until the Earth’s orbit was perturbed by another “passing planet,” creating the present conditions.

His Sabbath will be on the pope Gregory Friya goddess day coming up and both Saturn’s day and Sun’s day are work days.. His Day of the New Moon was a goddess Friya day for this new month.

The evil Muslims will actually stumble into it with their Friday prayers this month.

Sad commentary for His people..

But scripture is not followed and the pope’s calendar is..

On our Heavenly Father’s calendar, today is the 4th day of month, the 3rd day of His week..
The English speaking world has it as the moon’s day..

That roman calendar may have a far greater grip than people admit..

Happy Moon day!

Praise Yah we can read and know and commemorate what He created on His third day or any numbered day on His calendar.

But it seems the world of believers prefers the pope’s system..
It does make like easier to live by the world’s rules.

Torah is being ignored for the pope’s calendar..

That is just a fact that you can’t grasp. It isn’t because you are not sincere.. it is just that the pope’s calendar trumps the calendar in scripture for Jew/christian, etc...

It is shown perfectly in the pope Gregory April feasts that you celebrated and shown perfectly in the fall this year with the beginning of your 7th month occurring before His month ends- it is being calculated so yom Kippur can land on a pope approved sabbath and not a day later, which would be the accurate 10th day if the template of Ezekiel 46 and other places is followed-

The new moon was spotted on Thor’s day, September 25..

That would mean that the next day, Friya goddess day would be the first day of the new month.
If one counts from there, the 9th at evening actually begins just as the pope approved sabbath day of Saturn’s day ends.

It would mean that as Israel is winding down their day of atonement, on His calendar, it is just beginning.

And another tidbit is as the day of atonement is starting for Israel on that goddess Friya day, His weekly sabbath is ending..

So because of the Pope Gregory calendar, His weekly Sabbath is used this month as a preparation day and work day and His day of atonement is actually falling on a day normally reserved for Christians to worship- sun’s day.. and I suspect that may not be a ‘business’ work day for people who observe Saturn’s day normally, but it may be a casual day with little worship..

Praise Yah for His mercy and grace and his loving kindness that endures forever!

I don’t expect people enslaved to the pope’s system to see it..

Just knowing it is happening is a blessing that I couldn’t see two years ago..

But when He sets us free, we should be free indeed..

I would hardly consider a life consumed by new moons, sabbaths, festivals, hold days, etc. etc as being “ set free “ . Looks like old time bondage to the law to me.

Did you ride the short bus?

Who cares about any pope’s anything?

As Paul said, idols are nothing.

Where do you get all the garbage that you concentrate on?

Stick with the word of God!

Passover has always been the 14th day of the month of the Aviv.

The beginning of unleavened bread is the next day.

First Fruits is always the “first day of the week” that follows Passover. First Fruits is always on the first day of the week.

These things are set out clearly in Torah; what is your problem?

Yeshua said in Revelation 3 that for those that will not keep his times and sabbaths, he would come as a thief and they would lose all.

Without those “types and shadows, what can you know?

Absolutely nothing!

They are for our education, and awareness, and preparation. (until “we know as we are known”)

Set free from the world’s system..

Those new moons, sabbaths and feasts were just major events of the Messiah’s life. They are rather important in scripture.. and they are shadows of what came and what is coming.. His second return and the Kingdom. And watching for Him isn’t a bad idea. I call it a blessing and a ‘want to’, not a ‘have to’..

But December 25 good Friday and easter Sunday are holy to most today..

Freedom from the conformity of the world is an amazing place to be.

But the pope and papacy has their authority and people dont mind following their system..
thing is, that authority isn’t mandated by the edge of a sword. It is as subtle as it is..

There is already a one world system- just not the same way preachers have thought about.. and the major governments including the UN, business world and the major religions have no problem with it.. all unified under something named for some religious figure named a pope.

Most of those first reformers called the papacy the spirit of the ‘instead of’ messiah- today the reformers are observing the papacy’s holy days..

Today is Tiw’sday.. some god nobody really knows about on the pope’s calendar getting pub. Not a holy day, but certainly not scriptural.

on our Heavenly Father’s calendar, its the fourth day..

You tell me who’s free... enjoy your Tiw’s day!

If you would tell me what day you observed passover and first fruits on your pope Gregory calendar, I will show you why the Word is being trumped. But you can certainly go on ignoring that request and hurl insults.. that is a far better work of the flesh.

If you can’t or wont tell me what day you observed passover and first fruits on your pope gregory calendar, I won’t press it...

The pope gregory calendar- never thought it was so sacred a thing..

One can read all 27 books in the NT and you will not find anyone worried about new moons and the calendar.
One can read all the Church Fathers and secular historians and you will not find any Christians worried about new moons and keeping the old Jewish feast days.
Why would anyone observe Passover when Jesus Christ gives us His Body in the Eucharist?
False teachers will arise and fool many.....
