My thesis is that events of 2015 were like the Roman General Cestius who came 3 1/2 years before Titus and next spring is like Titus for US and also Jerusalem (Zech 14:1,2) first on Passover [time of judgment] and then 2nd Passover (Num 9:10,11 fits Matt 25:13,14 and also "as the days of Noah" and "THEN [same time] shall two be in the field... etc] when we must be ready for the wedding parables like God "executed judgment" on Egypt & took Israel to a covenant--parallel event next spring for those who are ready and 50 days later, I think Y'shua will have the 144,000 who will be His anointed group all over the world.
Mt thesis is different. It reminds me of a video i saw where you were being interviewed by this woman. You were talking about something like the Goodman of the house had gone away on a long journey and taken a bag of money with Him, but he will return at the appointed time, at the full moon. But then she starts going on and on, for what seemed like an eternity, about her rapture dream while you smiled politely and nodded from time to time. And when she finally finished and asked what you though, you said something like: "well, I like to stay with the Scriptures, and then immediately returned to the subject at hand.
My thesis is different, that's for sure. Not many think it's happening right now, right before our eyes. But you Richard are one of the few that has a chance to understand this because first one needs to recognize the prophetic time period of 1260 years, the Foxe Book days, when the dragon was chasing the woman across Europe. When that all ended, the United States was right there and ready to swallow the flood that spewed forth from the dragon's mouth.
My thesis also uses the days of Cestius Gallus. But my thesis has has us in the equivalent day count of Cestius that began with the Abomination after the third moon of the tetrad in 2015, and which will end exactly 1290 days at the "darkened" sun and a moon that will not give her light. I wouldn't be so certain of this if i didn't have all these day counts adding up with such exact precision. I think we're at the end right now but not everything is like the prophecy expositors told us it would be. I'm allowing the "signs" to overrule my previous understanding of what might have been erroneous doctrine. Which is a good thing. If the first trumpet fire is literal, the planet couldn't last for 3.5 years. There would be no flesh remaining alive.
My thesis is that the "signs in the sun and in the moon and in the stars", have all been given. We're just in that eye of the storm, the days of Cestius, waiting for the "distress of nations and the roaring of the sea. Men's hearts failing them for fear of what is coming on the earth. People are walking around right now like everything is normal, but it's not. We are within, inside of, the prophetic time period.
My thesis has the end times taking place very quickly within a little over 3 and a half years, or 1335 literal days, with us now being already into the composite beast's 42 months of authority. That's right, he is saying unheard of things against the God of gods. Standing in the Temple of God in the summer of 2015, blaspheming His Name and His dwelling place and those who live in heaven. The Temple of God is in Heaven, he has risen up to the place of HIS Sanctuary. Like Samie asked me before , why didn't anything happen, why didn't the apocalypse begin?
Rewind back to the days of Cestius. When Cestius began his siege, he was standing outside the perimeter wall of Old Jerusalem. The ground, the earth, that he stood on qualified as a "holy place" because it was the land given by God to the Levites for their gardening and cattle grazing. 1500 feet outward from the city wall.
"The pasturelands of the cities, which you shall give to the Levites, shall reach from the wall of the city outward a thousand cubits all around. -
Numbers 35:4
I kept getting stuck on the idea that the temple mount has ceased to be the "holy place" since the day that the curtain was rent. So what I did was to relax my criteria and consider other possibilities for what might be a "holy place" in our appointed time of the end. If the ground, the earth, that Cestius stood on qualified as a "holy place" because it was the land given by God to the Levites for their gardening and cattle grazing, then could the United States be considered a holy place that was designated and prepared by God for the new custodians of the Gospel?
If the Roman army could be considered to be standing in a "holy place" because the "earth" surrounding the city wall of Jerusalem from 1500 feet outwards was the land given to the Levites by God, then there might be other "holy places" that we've overlooked. After all, the NT Script does NOT say: "when you see the abomination of desolation standing in the temple".
"Remove your sandals from your feet, for the place where you are standing is holy."
And Joshua did so. -
Joshua 5:15
But then for some reason Cestius abandoned his siege. Some have said that he got a word that a Cesar had died and needed to go back to Rome. When the Jews saw him leaving, they took chase. They attacked Cestius from behind and the Roman's took heavy casualties. But this was the BIGGIE sign for the Christians from Luke 21. But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies. The early Christians who remembered Jesus' words were able to walk right out of the open gates of the city UNMOLESTED. And they did not return to the city.
"During Gallus's withdrawal his column was ambushed near
Beth Horon, suffering very heavy losses. He was only able to reach
Antipatris with the loss of about 6,000 men and a large amount of war
material.
[2] Judea was now almost entirely lost to Roman control.
Then the Jews came back and celebrated their victory. They thought that they won and God was on their side. Then events in Jerusalem would continue on as normal. They thought everything was going to be fine. But they were in a deadly countdown of days, a tribulation of the Matrix, where things were not what they seemed to be. From 9/66 to 4/70. About three years and change. And then when Titus came and set up the real siege, the door was sealed, there would be no more escape.
Then in the first century God was transferring some things around. Paul was writing about it. Not all Israelites are born from Israel. For they are not all Israel who are descended from Israel. I believe in Jesus, i am Abraham's seed. James in his epistle addressing the ten tribes, which are: "believers in our glorious Lord Jesus. The NT Church are now the custodians of the Gospel, and the United States has become the "earth" who helped that "woman". It's not hard to figure out, new light is shining in a dark place.
This article does a very excellent job describing how the USA became the "glorious land" after the papal persecution came to an end.
"Yet the greatest and most significant mistake being made by Christians at large, and U.S. foreign policy in particular, is our refusal to understand that the “glorious land,” designated by God as literal Palestine, has long since been transferred to the shores of America. This is the land designated in Bible prophecy as the “earth” that helps the “woman” (
Revelation 12:14-16). America is the “place” designated by God for His New Testament church, the land that swallowed the flood of persecution during the latter part of the Dark Ages.

This link should open a video window where it would start at the 10 minute mark and helps to explain how the United States became the "holy place" after 1798.

Or you can boost it up for yourself from about 10:30 to about 12:45:
And i had began assembling my own notes on this in the summer of 2015, after the third moon of the tetrad, when i saw the Abomination standing where it ought not to be..

Imminent Destruction of the United States
"Days of Lot" = "Abomination that makes Desolate"
I could be wrong, but i doubt it. There's too many other indicators, other witnesses, pointing the very same same way. The 1535 decree measuring 62 new weeks to 1969. A new 1969 decree measuring 7 new weeks to January 2019. 1914, 1938, nation against nation and kingdom against kingdom culminating with a fig tree sprouting it's leaves in 1948. Comet Shoemaker Levy 9 impacting Jupiter 21 times in 1994 at the end of seven sets of seventy weeks since the Exodus. Then 21 years to the tetrads when the third moon calculated the Daniel 12 prophetic time periods to the Revelation 12 sign and then a "darkened" sun in January where a blood moon will also not give her light. And the Abomination standing EXACTLY 1290 days until that same "darkened" sun. These are events and celestial signs that are not replaceable in time. They are never going to happen again.
I am afraid that we now are in a very short count of days away from the fire that he CAUSES to fall from heaven in the presence of men. And that should be the catalyst for the man of sin to be revealed.
But like the Son of Man said, when you see these things begin to take place, lift up your heads. For your redemption draweth nigh.
And that's a good thing.
"But unless we take a Berean's attitude to compare it with Scripture, we could miss something important because the last church is characterized as "blind and naked" (Rev 3:17) and "the blind will I bring by a way they know not," Isa 42:16. - R. Ruhling.
