Jewish tradition. Groom would go and collect the bride at night, only the grooms father would know the time.
Only those that heard and joined the bridal procession at night would be allowed to partake in the wedding feast.
It’s a very apt anology for the rapture. Be ready and alert wih a light to see thru the fog of evil and see the truth of God clearly.

First they hide the fact that the economy is tanking, inflation should be sky rocketing, but by locking down and wiping out the middle class it retracts the money going in to the market.
Second I believe it is to minimize the effect of the rapture on unbelievers when it comes.
On short term future I expect Isaiah 17, Psalm 83 and Ezekiel 38 to happen by this spring, no matter who is the CIC of the USA.
Keep looking up our redemption draws near, thank you Lord Jesus!!!
The parable of the ten virgins was given by Jesus to ISRAEL. It refers to the end of the seven years of Jacob’s Troubles. That parable was not given to the Church. To see what WAS given to the Church look into all of Paul’s letters.
Closed with the ABCs of salvation. I like that! J D Farag always ends his teaching with that explanation, too.
You got it! In the midst of lockdowns and street chaos, the sudden disappearance of 30 or 40 million people in the USofA can be explained away to the dumbed down public with more than one lie served up dutifully by the scumedia. With lockdowns, discovering how many have vanished will take a while, during which time the lies will flow freely from the scumedia, as the electric grid is repaired..
Thanks for posting!
Me too. Roman War Criminal and I have discussed this in the past. Jesus say that "few" find salvation. Few by definition is less than 50%, and probably a lot less.
The US is the most Christian on earth by percentages. Compared to Europe, China, India, Africa, etc. However, even in the US, the percentage of truly born again, saved Christians is most likely low.
I would say no more than 10%, but probably in the low single digits. Surveys have put the number at between 6% - 35% of evangelicals in the US, but it is ridiculous to believe the number is above 10%.
Recent projections have Protestants on a massive decline, and that includes the main line churches. However, the percentage of those that are truly saved is almost certainly much lower than any official numbers.
Still, after the Rapture, that percentage will be devastating to the US. Other nations......not so much. Islamic nations will barely notice. Atheistic Europe, same.
Just posted something like that - we agree.
J. D. Farag had a good insight today.
The Bible tells us that in the last days it will be like in the times of Noah. In the time of Noah, one of the reasons for the Great Flood was the Nephilim having sex with human women. One interpretation leads to understanding the human genetic line was contaminated. Making people inhuman or transhuman.
Think about today as we look at an mRNA vaccine. Maybe not this time it messes with the human genetic code, but there will be subsequent vaccinations much like the flu shot. Like in the times of Noah...they were no longer human or in God’s image.
Also God places a great delusion on THEM, not us. We will see it, we in God’s love will know and understand. The Bible clearly states many things will come upon THEM in those days, not God’s people, but them.
Needless to say it was an interesting update:

mrna vaccines will not corrupt the human line. some of the other shenanigans they are doing might but the vaccine will not. i’m not sure that’s valid anyway. the reason the human line could not be corrupted was so Christ could be born. This time i’m thinking God is waiting for evil to be complete to judge it once and for all. ymmv
Yah'shua died in 29 AD at Pesachshalom b'SHEM Yah'shua HaMashiach
He spent two days in Samaria after leaving Jerusalem
Sameria is as gentile times
A day is as a 1000 years
He will return 2000 years later
He will be returning in 2029
2029 minus 7 yers ( Jacob's Trouble)
yields the year 2022
The year 2022 is a shmita yearOn the 29th of Elul in year 2022
The day after is the Feast of Trumpets
The feast of Trumpets is known as the feast day
known as the feast for which "the day nor hour is known"
Rosh Chodesh Thisri can occur at any of two days at any hour.Those Left Behind will blame the Christians.
It will probably be much more like the concentration camps of NAZI Germany. If ALL the jews at that time had been taken up in a kind of rapture, no one would know except some guards and some higherups in the NAZI party.
It’ll likely be parallel to that with christians.
“Gabriel told Daniel that the Antichrist will rise to power in a reunited Europe, and Europe has been reunited (the EU; Dan. 9:26).”
That is not verbatim what Gabriel told Daniel; it’s a conjecture about the ultimate manifestation of what Daniel was told. And it could be wrong. EASILY. And it’s only one of several similar flights of Sherlockian fancy.
This is a SCREAMING violation of a Pauline hermeneutical directive: “do not go beyond what is written.” (1 Cor. 4:6)
But then to elevate those suppositions to the status of foregone conclusions... now you’re squarely in the target zone.
“Let no one deceive himself. If anyone thinks that he is wise among you in this world, let him become a fool, that he may become wise.”
1 Corinthians 3:18 WMB
https://bible.com/bible/1209/1co.3.18.WMB
The specific danger is here:
“Pride goes before destruction, and an arrogant spirit before a fall.”
Proverbs 16:18 WMB
https://bible.com/bible/1209/pro.16.18.WMB
Not only the “fall” of the teacher, but of many who are receiving the teaching.
This article speaks to the “going beyond” dynamic in more broad terms; not focused on eschatology.

Daymon’s not a bad guy, but there’s quite a bit that he says that’s cantilevered off of suppositions — educated guesses, essentially — that are being taken as conclusive when they are nothing of the sort; you let one of those key suppositions turn out wrong, and you’ve suddenly got a major section of your eschatological edifice laying in ruin, and trust issues about what’s still standing. And what’s really bad is the wreckage doesn’t stop at the edges of Daymon’s mind, but extends to all his readers.
A metric ton or three of Mosaic humility would be a VERY appropos addition to this scene.
Absolutely!

My brother just sent me this. We are in this mess in America partly because of wimpy preachers. (Who shouldn’t have been in the pulpit in the first place!)
Amen! And JD Farag is absolutely awesome as is Pastor Duck.
That graph tells 3 very interesting stories.
1. Protestant continue to move downwards (IE Evangelical Christianity)
2. Roman Catholicism remains the same, as if no impact
3. Those with no religious affiliation have skyrocketed (apostasy)
The question Jesus posited in Luke 18:8 comes to mind:
“However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?”
My answer: If He doesn’t hurry up - He won’t!
