Page 13 of Heavenly-Earthly-Signs-of-2011
PDF article, Helena analyzed how our near
Rapture event has shouts of arch angels
with the trumpet call of God.

Matthew 24:31
"And he shall send his angels with a great
sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather
together his elect from the four winds,
from one end of heaven to the other."
I noticed a similar quote from:

Mark 13:27
"And then shall he send his angels, and
shall gather together his elect from the
four winds, from the uttermost part of
the earth to the uttermost part of heaven."

In His Second Coming, our LORD Yahshua
will descend only so far and await the
resurrection of the Elect to the Clouds
and meet in the Air.

Angels will gather the Elect from the
Earth as well as Heaven using the four
winds to the Uttermost Parts.

Jeremiah 23:3
"And I will gather the remnant of my flock
out of all countries whither I have driven
them, and will bring them again to their
folds; and they shall be fruitful and
increase."

John 10:16
"And other sheep I have, which are not of
this fold: them also I must bring, and they
shall hear my voice; and there shall be one
fold, [and] one shepherd."

The Father of our LORD Jesus stated this
very, very clearly to the 1st Century
followers of Christ.

Matthew 17:5
"While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud
overshadowed them: and behold a voice out
of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved
Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him."

Mark 9:7
"And there was a cloud that overshadowed them:
and a voice came out of the cloud, saying,
This is my beloved Son: hear him."

Luke 9:35
"And there came a voice out of the cloud,
saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him."

John 10:27
"My sheep hear my voice, and I know them,
and they follow me:"

Revelation 3:20
"Behold, I stand at the door, and knock:
if any man hear my voice, and open the
door, I will come in to him, and will
sup with him, and he with me."

I believe a bright cloud of witnesses will
circle the globe and great singing, shouting
and praise shall be heard world-wide. I can
envision how no natural sunlight will get
through this bright cloud but the Earth will
be lit up brighter than the noon-day as each
person resurrected will create a lightening
blast of supernatural proportions.

I thought the updated version of this PDF
provides such clarity and well thought out
analysis. Very professionally written and
lots of deep layers to study. Excellent!

From Mountains Of Aram to Shepherd's Watchtower

Abraham's brother = Nahor

Nahor married his wife, Milcah (queen)
Their son = Bethuel
Bethuel begat = Laban (son) & Rebekah (daughter)
Laban begat = Leah & Rachel (two daughters)

Laban - H3837 - white (the Syrian of Padanaram)
son of Bethuel, brother of Rebekah and father
of Leah & Rachel

Bethuel - H1328 - God Destroys, or Dweller in God
or Man of God - son of Milcah, nephew of Abraham,
son of Nahor by Milcah

Nahor - H5152 - snorting, breathing hard

Rachel - H7354 - ewe, female lamb/sheep

Benoni (ben-oni); son of sorrow, pain

Aram - H758 - exalted
5th son of Shem
to be high, height, high region
Syria or Assyrian nation, Aramean people

Padanaram = H6307 - field of Aram; plain, field
also Edar
Aram = mountains of the east

tower of Edar = H4029 - tower of the flock,
shepher's watchtower near Bethlehem.
Migdal - Eder

Eder - H5739 - flock, herd, drove

When I piece together these names and
places I can read:

Out of the eastern field of Aram came
forth snorting/breathing hard with his
queen to begat white-light dwelling in
God who gave ewe/female lamb unto her
death a son of sorrow and pain on the
way towards the shepherd's watchtower
over the flock as they herd near Bethlehem.

Together With Them In Cloud & In Air (2-11-2011)

I noticed two different words were used to
describe the Rapture Events. The first refers
to CLOUD and the second refers to AIR.
Perhaps this is an indication of a double-pump
with the meeting With The LORD.

The first is when the Dead in Christ are raised
up from the Earth.

The second is when those who remain and are alive
get raised up.
(A) With - G4862 - Syn = with, along side

Matthew 27:38
"Then were there 2 thieves crucified with
[G4862] him, one on the right hand, and
another on the left."

Mark 9:4
"And there appeared unto them Elias with
[G4862] Moses; and they were talking with
Jesus."

(B) Together With - G260 - Hama = at the
same time, at once, together (with); Withal
1 Thes 4:16-17
"For the Lord himself shall descend
from heaven with a shout, with the
voice of the archangel, and with
the trump of God: and the dead in
Christ shall rise first: [17] Then
we which are alive [and] remain
shall be caught up together [G260]
with [G4862] them in the clouds, to
meet the Lord in the air: and so
shall we ever be with the Lord."

1 Thes 5:10
"... Who died for us, that, whether we
wake or sleep , we should live together
[G260] with [G4862] him."

Clouds - G3507 - Nephele = cloud

Air - G109 - Aer = the air, particularly
the lower and denser air as distinguished
from the higher and rarer air; the
atmospheric region

Perhaps the first phase is when those who
are asleep/dead are raised up into the
clouds. This cloud might be similar to the
one that led Israel for 40 years. Similar
to the one that Jesus Christ ascended up
as described in the Book of ACTS.

Then, perhaps there will be a brief time
span for those who are awake/alive to be
raised up.

Next, together with them, all of the Bride
will ascend together to meet the LORD in the
atmospheric air. This suggests a lower location
below the cloud.

A couple of thoughts.
1) If the CLOUD is world-wide, then a great
darkness will circle the globe.
2) If the Rapture initiates a lightening bolt
occurance for each person raised up, then it
would look like the noon-day sun even though
it isn't the Sun causing the light.
3) If there's a resurrection of those 2 yrs and
younger, then those left behind will grieve their
loss. Such a response might trigger a world-wide
clammour to get 'chipped' so as to track one's
whereabouts (i.e., Location-Insurance-Chip).
4) If there's a delay from the dead being raised,
and the second part for those alive, then wouldn't
that cause great doubt among those unsettled in
their faith. Such waivering might trigger a complete
let-down, a total falling away. It might cause a
stampede to get the Location-Insurance-Chip and
thereby seal them with the Mark of the Beast.
This might explain the second falling away.
5) If 3 days and 3 nights is the pattern, and
the first Rapture of the Dead takes 3 days/nights,
and the second Rapture of the Wake/Alive takes 3
days/nights, then on the 7th Day all of the Bride
enters Heaven with HIM. This 7 days of 'feast'
matches the Tabernacle analysis of Helena.

If we have more than one rapture, then
does that mean that the Holy Spirit, as
He Who Restrains, will not be taken
until the 2nd rapture OR at least until
after the 1st rapture during, perhaps,
the second wave of Falling Away?
If yes, then we have an updated order:
(1) The Initially Falling Away (Now)
(2) The Rapture Part One (Soon)
(3) The Second Falling Away
(4) He Who Restrains Is Taken (Holy Spirit)
(5) Son of Perdition is Revealed (Father/Son)

--(Sept 11th)-- message post #1842:
Helena quoted 2 Thess. 2:3-12 and wrote:
"... Church won't be taken out of the way
until the falling away happens first, the
True Church will witness this falling away

Ok, so we now have the order:
First: The Falling Away, then
Second: He Who Restrains is Taken, then
Third: The Son of Perdition is Revealed

What Comes Naturally? (9-27-2010)
Here's just a thought:
if a vast majority of those who are currently
claiming how their salvation is in the savior
Jesus Christ suddenly, like a thief in the
night, find themselves left behind after the
1st rapture, won't the natural reaction be
that of shock-denial and this would, by a
factor of a hundred-fold, cause them to
'fall-away' in disappointment? Wouldn't this
represent a breakdown of their expectations?
How could God do this to them? Therefore,
if the 1st rapture takes out of this world
Those 'over-comers' first, then those not
taken might naturally just fall away as they
failed to keep fresh oil in their lamps, and
then the anti-christ would be able to step
Up to re-motivate the 'base' by saying he
was the christ and that nobody missed out
on anything? Doesn't this make sense?

Spirit of Adoption (2-7-2011)

A total of 5 references to Strong's G5206
Huiothesia = adoption, adoption as sons,
adoption as children.

1) Romans 8:15 NASB
"For you have not received a spirit of slavery leading
to fear again, but you have received a spirit of adoption
[G5206] as sons by which we cry out, 'Abba! Father!' "

The spirit of adoption provides to unbelievers new
opportunities to join and belong in the family of His
children with sincerity.

2) Romans 8:23 NASB
"And not only this, but also we ourselves, having the
first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan
within ourselves, waiting eagerly for our adoption
[G5206] as sons, the redemption of our body."

The spirit of adoption brings a community of connections
passing along the deeper parts of longing, groaning and
eagerly awaiting with hopefulness for redemption.

3) Romans 9:4 NASB
"... who are Israelites, to whom belongs the adoption
[G5206] as sons, and the glory and the covenants and the
giving of the Law and the temple service and the
promises..."

The spirit of adoption has a long history with the
nation of Israel that archives their travails.

4) Galatians 4:5 NASB
"... so that He might redeem those who were under
the Law, that we might receive the adoption [G5206]
as sons."

The spirit of adoption gathers from all walks of life
whether under the Law or those not under the Law.

5) Ephesians 1:5 NASB
"He predestined us to adoption [G5206] as sons through
Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the kind intention
of His will ... "

The spirit of adoption has always intended to include
His Kindness to all Mankind through His son Jesus
Christ who now gives us the heavenly will of God into
our very inward parts unto salvation, redemption and
glory.

=========
Jesus spoke about Capernaum - Strong's G2584 = village
of comfort or consolation - near the place where the Jordan
flows into the lake/sea of Galilee. He elevated this village
up into the very Windows of Heaven. They did not want
to give up their advantages and tried to own their own
benefits by claiming Jesus for themselves, as a thing to
be possessed. He wasn't owned by anyone. Nor, did He
owe anybody anything.

Matthew 11:23
"And thou, Capernaum [G2584], which art exalted
unto heaven, shalt be brought down to hell: for if
the mighty works, which have been done in thee,
had been done in Sodom, it would have remained
until this day."

Why such a harsh judgment? Because Jesus poured
out from Himself all the glory of God and yet the
village still wanted to and still looked for a handle to
control, manipulate and possess their advantages.

I clicked one Strong's number over to G2585 to find
Kapeleuo = to peddle, base-trade for sordid gain;
to corrupt, adulterate for the sake of gaining/dealing;
pedler, huckster.

2 Corintians 2:17
"For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God:
but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak
we in Christ."
What happens to those who use the word of God for an
economic advantage? Probably the same result found in
Capernaum.

OPPOSITION TO BIBLICAL REDEMPTION (2-2-2011)

Strong's Greek G485: Antilogia = opposition,
rebellion, contradiction

Jude 1:11
"Woe unto them! for they have gone in the
way of Cain, and ran greedily after the
error of Balaam for reward, and perished
in the gainsaying [G485] of Core."

These are Power brokers who manipulate,
deconstruct and institutionalize global
governance according to the Way of Cain,
the Error of Balaam, gainsaying of Core.

Hebrew 12:3
"For consider him that endured such contradiction
[G485] of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied
and faint in your minds."

Mental fatigue is a symptom of righteous believers
who endure constant contraditions from those in
opposition to biblical redemption.

It's a battle place of the mind and spirit. It's an
all-out assault against our faith, our place in the
Kingdom of God and our walk following Him who
have been disciplined by His love to grow up in
all things unto the full measure of righteousness,
peace and the Holy Spirit.

The world's Power Brokers are forcing change into
the very definitions of biblical words:
1) redemption  [vs]  recover from addiction habits
2) restoration  [vs]  constructing relaxation techniques
3) resurrection  [vs]  repetitive routines of P.C. behavior
4) revelation  [vs]  self-realization w/o bearing fruitfulness

Without redemption from the Blood of Christ, there
is no salvation. Without restoration for our souls,
there is no satisfaction in the spirit. Without finding
our resurrection in Christ, there is no overcoming the
bondage of the fleshly sins. Without revelation from
His Word and Spirit, there is no hope for drawing
near to our heavenly Father.

What is a Socialist:
one who promotes, practices and is characteristic
of Socialism

What is Socialism:
advocates seeking wealth and power through
governmental tax-and-spend applicatons based
on selective, state-controlled domination as a
means of creating unfair concentrated manipulation
around special-interest themes. Where collective
salvation replaces personal accountability and
denies the Gospel's salvation message for our
own individual lives. Opposes US Constitution.
Such 'gainsaying' is a measure of rebellion in
opposition to the Lordship Of Christ Jesus in
each believer's life.

Rapture / All Children Worldwide Instantly (2-1-2011)

Over this weekend, I have been meditating
on the Rapture concerning innocent children.
I have read how Jesus spoke about children.
Matthew 18:3
"... and [JESUS] said, "Truly I say to you,
unless you are converted and become like
children, youwill not enter the kingdom
of heaven."

Again, in Matthew 19:14
"But Jesus said, "Let the children alone,
and do not hinder them from coming to Me;
for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such
as these."

For such as these, for all children world
wide, I have become persuaded the Rapture
will include all children everywhere. He
will include all who are 2 years or less,
and also those who are developmentally not
past the internal age of two. Therefore,
the handicapped, the weak, the poor in
spirit will receive inheritance. If I am
correct, then the mark of the beast might
be sold to those left behind as a safety
measure to ensure the survival of the
planet, survival of our population. People
will line up to pay for their insurance
coverage.

I'm sure there are many reasons for
those who view themselves as believers
who fail to participate in the Rapture.

Perhaps one reason might be that their
lives lack fruitfulness. As such, wouldn't
it be logical to consider their place
on Earth is to learn what it means to
'go and buy from merchants'? (Reference
from the Virgin Handmaidens parable)

I do not see this as a way to buy your
salvation. I do, however, imagine how
this additional time might produce the
desired result ... a cleansed heart
with clean hands bearing the fruit of
the spirit.

Maybe it's a way to extend to those who
are 'close-to-the-Kingdom' to find out
under Tribulation what they could not do
under Grace.
