Yom Kippur

Leviticus 25:9 ESV
Then you shall sound the loud trumpet on the tenth day of the seventh month. On the Day of Atonement you shall sound the trumpet throughout all your land.

Today is the day of atonement, the holiest day of the year for Jewish people.

John 14:6 ESV
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."

Yom Kippur (Hebrew: יוֹם כִּפּוּר, IPA: [ˈjom kiˈpuʁ], or יום הכיפורים), also known as Day of Atonement, is the holiest day of the year for the Jewish people.[1] Its central themes are atonement and repentance. Jewish people traditionally observe this holy day with an approximate 25-hour period of fasting and intensive prayer, often spending most of the day in synagogue services.

This Wednesday October 8 2014 will come in, at 3:51 am PDT, the second blood moon, which falls on the Jewish holiday Sukkot.

Sukkot, Succot or Sukkos (Hebrew: סוכות‎ or סֻכּוֹת sukkōt or sukkos, Feast of Booths, Feast of Tabernacles) is a biblical Jewish holiday celebrated on the 15th day of the month of Tishrei (varies from late September to late October). It is one of the Three Pilgrimage Festivals (shalosh regalim) on which the Israelites would make a pilgrimage to the Temple in Jerusalem.

The blood moon falling on all of these Jewish holy days is a very rare occurrence.

Below taken from Jesus On My Mind:
The last time that four blood red moons occurred together was in 1967-1968, probably related to the recapture of Jerusalem by Israel. The time that the tetrad occurred before this was in 1949-1950, probably related to Israel becoming a nation. Before this time, the last occurrence was 1493-1494, probably related to the expulsion of the Jews from Spain.

Since 1 AD, a "Biblical tetrad" has occurred on these holy days a total of 7 times. In 2014-2015, it will be the 8th time. It won't occur again for another 500 years.


To me it seems reasonable to say that the coming of Jesus Christ is very near and we need to be alert and prepared to hear the blasting of the trumpet when He calls His children home. Are you ready?

Joel 2:31 ESV
The sun shall be turned to darkness, and the moon to blood, before the great and awesome day of the Lord comes.
Revelation 6:12 ESV
When he opened the sixth seal, I looked, and behold, there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth, the full moon became like blood,
Matthew 25:13 ESV
Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the. hour. 
We do not know the hour when our Savior will call us but we can know the signs. With the turmoil of ISIS, or ISIL  beheading children and Christians over seas and recently here in North America, we can know that it will be very soon.

Be prepared. Be on the lookout.

Blessings,

    1. Hi Brenda,
      Last night my husband and I were talking about the craziness of people. So many weird things they are doing and so many diseases that are seemly out of control. Peoples hearts that are becoming hard even to things that use to melt a persons heart. This could only be what we have been warned about in Scripture. It is exciting and scary all at the same time. There are so many people who refuse to acknowledge Jesus as Lord and King. What a terrible surprise they will have. My hope and prayer is that they will not become hardened in their hearts after rapture but they will repent of their ways and be the sounding device for those during the tribulation.

      Blessings hon,

  2. Wow. This is an amazing lesson. I had heard some of these things, but not all of this. Thanks for sharing and reminding all of us to "be on guard".

    1. Hi Floyd,
      It's pretty cool to see what has happened to Israel during the past blood moons. Since the next set of tetrad blood moons won't be for another 500 years, it sure does make one wonder if this is part of the prophecy mentioned in Joel and Revelation.

      Thanks for reading.

    2. I'm so glad I was able to get online today to see this...It makes perfect sense, and answers the question of why I have been feeling differently lately...It feels as if we are about to turn a corner very soon.
      And just like Floyd said we need to "be on guard"...but we also need to be diligent and seek the Lord with all our heart mind and strength...and to expect some resistance to doing so at this time.
      I believe now will be the time of much deception in the churches! Already, the pastor of my daughter's church has been ousted by his congregation and church board for preaching about the end times! (He is resigning now).
      "The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons." (1 Tim. 4:1)
      having itching ears:
      "For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to sound and wholesome teaching. They will follow their own desires and will look for teachers who will tell them whatever their itching ears want to hear." (2 Tim 4:3)
      Thanks for sharing this very important lesson~In Jesus~ Love you, my friend and sister in Christ!

    3. Hi Lisa,
      How sad that your daughter's preacher is resigning. We need men and women of God to stand up in these times. I hope he keeps on preaching God's Word and there will be those who will respond to it. I will keep him in my prayers.

      Here is a cool article from Joel Rosenberg on raptue It is a great article with lots of Scripture to show where we can find God's Word on rapture. . http://flashtrafficblog.wordpress.com/2014/10/05/hollywood-tackles-the-end-times-with-left-behind-film-but-is-the-rapture-a-biblical-concept-or-a-fictional-plot-device/

      I agree with this feeling you have about feeling different lately. I too feel like I'm on pins and needles, anticipating something. The heavens and the earth are shouting out that change is on it's way. We need to wake up, be alert and not be afraid to share Jesus Christ with those who don't know Him. We need to be bold and not afraid to die. At least we know where we are going, there are those who we know will go to hell if they do know choose Jesus.

      Such a time as this.

      Blessings hon, thanks for visiting.

  3. While we don't know the exact hour, we do know that He will return and should live as if it could be any minute. I haven't studied the four blood moons very much, but it sounds interesting. Thanks.

    1. Hi TC,
      I totally agree with you that we need to live every moment as if Jesus is going to return in that moment.

      I have only done a bit of research on the blood moons and what I have found I have loved. I love prophecy although I do find I become a bit lost while trying to put the pieces together.

      Thanks for visiting. :)
