When did the glory come? The glory is the Lord coming suddenly to His Temple in the seventh month. The Day of Atonement is in the seventh month, this is when the High Priest is to minister in the most Holy Place “While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. And at midnight there was a cry made, behold the bridegroom cometh; go out to meet him.”

Side bar ...In Genesis the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat. The name "Ararat" means "the curse is reversed". In this example, you can see the Lord working according to His appointed time, and in and this and other these cases it is always in the seventh month.

The 10 Days of Awe (Feast of Trumpets) are a time of deep introspection, reflection, and contemplation leading up to the actual Day of Atonement, which is itself the most solemn of all the days on the Jewish calendar! In fact, this day, the Day of Atonement, though called a "Feast" day, is actually a day of Fasting and humiliation, a day in which they are commanded to "deny" themselves (in fasting and in refraining from all pursuits of pleasure and gratification.) It is called a lasting ordiance because when it is fulfilled the effect will not be like with earthly priests who had to do it every year, it will be done once by Yeshua as our High Priest and its effect will last us all eternity.

The seven trumpets will test to see what type of metal you are made of. By the Day of Atonement, the Book of Your life has been before you for ten days and the Lord has been doing a final cleansing of the heart .... By Yom Kippur, the polishing will be finished, the potter will have finished molding your character that is to hold His spirit, the temple which is you. Can you hold the Spirit of God within you perfectly?

Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden enjoyed the presence of God. They walked with him daily in the garden. Then they sinned. Their eyes were opened and they immediately realized that they were naked. They immediately realized that they were no longer covered. Instinctively they began to try to sew fig leaves together to cover themselves because they knew God was coming, and they knew they could no longer withstand His Holy Presence. They could not enter his presence which covering. Their effort to cover themselves, however, was futile; so when they heard God's voice and knew that he was entering the garden, they hid themselves. They could not come face to face with him. After judging them, the book of Genesis tells us, that God made garments of skin to cover them. Thus the story of the fall of man leaves us with our first glimpse of atonement. God kills an animal to cover Adam and Eve. It is the first record of death in the creation, and it is a sacrifice meant for a covering.

Face to face. God replies that no man can see his face and live. Moses would be consumed by God's glory. Instead God offers to cover Moses with his hand, hiding him in the cleft of the rock, while God passes by and declares the full meaning of His Name. He offers to tell Moses exactly who he is. He offers to reveal to Moses his essential person. And he passed in front of Moses, proclaiming, 'The Lord, the Lord, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin. Yet He does not leave the guilty unpunished; He punishes the children and their children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation.

This experience that Moses went through was the first time in record history that the full extent of God's mercy and grace were revealed. Moses already knew God was gracious, he already knew he was abounding in loving kindness, but to what extent he probably never realized, until that moment when God covered him with his hand and proclaimed his Name.

Only then was it made clear that God is so Holy and pure that even when He reveals Himself it is only the essence of God and a better understanding of the meaning of His Name. In the Day of Atonement, we need to readily admit that we have no nothing, no worthy deeds, no spiritual strengths of our own; we have nothing to show God, nothing to tip the scales of judgment in our favor, except Yeshua. We have no basis to ask for mercy except for this, "You are the Lord, the Lord, gracious and compassionate.

Sin can not live in the presence of God, first have Yeshua open up the book of your life and go over all the sin recorded there in. Work with Yeshua, trust him that if he calls it sin, give it up, for the glory to come is worth giving up every sin now. It took three days to clean the camp of Israel at Mount Sinai before God descended to talk with them and they were still not ready. Will you?

If you have never experience holy in an up close and personal way, then how will you know the difference between glory, brightness and holy. Let this day be your experience, "having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Yeshua, and a new and living way, which he has consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh; ..." Notice that you are living and entering into the holy temple of heaven through Yeshua in prayer and may the Lord grant you a tasteof holiness so that you will have the gift of discernment at what sin has marred, blackened and blurred down here on earth.

If you are not ready to meet the Almighty, Awesome, Holy God and you approach the Lord or the Lord approaches you, the sin within you will burn within you because holiness and sin can not c o-exist in the same space. You will start to tremble and fear will start to overwhelm you. Does God want this? No, that is why He is trying to prepare you for his Almightiness, Power and Glory. Poor Isaiah found himself in the presence of God, he said “Woe is me for I am unclean."

So even if you have just gone through the book of your life with Yeshua, and have reached to point of having the peace that passes all understanding, you will still be unprepared for the reality of the Almighty Pure Glory of God. Yet if we are to live with him forever, do you not think that now is the time to prepare? Study the word of God looking for God, what is he really like, what does God think, what did those that met with God think, how did they describe there experience. Get a feel for what it would be like to have the real experience.

God will guide you through his word, He will show you were you are lacking, and He will
open your eyes so that you may see your true self. He will prepare you if you but let Him
who has begun a good work finish it. Pray that you may have the courage it takes to go all
the way with Yeshua. Now is a good time to start, because 10 days is too short and overwhelming.

We know that this will be the time of the end for the Lord said " For in those days shall be affliction, (you would say nothing new, but wait the Lord goes on) such as was not from the beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be.”

Then come the famous statement the "except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect's sake, whom he has chosen, he has shortened the days." We know that this has not yet occurred. This will be the time when the great imitation of Christ by Satan will occur. There is also the three false prophets of Revelation here too. Talk about eye opening Revelation reality"Shall show signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect."

We are seeing darkly, as through a looking glass, but there will come a time when it will be clearly seen. Does that mean that everyone looking into Revelation is wrong or right? With a glimmer, that people see, they are getting the impression, of the events that will soon transpire. When the book of Revelation is opened for its last present tense, it will be like a curtain going up on a stage, and we will see all the world characters in their true colors as the last act to be preformed as God said it would be.

Maybe that is why you are noticing so many books, studies and comments from believers on the subject of the end of time. The Holy Spirit is moving upon the minds of men to study this subject now more than ever. The Holy Spirit is also inspiring them on the subject in answer to their prayers regarding the last days of earth’s history.

The Holy Spirit is pressing an important conviction of truth upon you for your salvation. The controversy will end when you stop wrestling with the Word of God to fit what you have already been told. The controversy will end when you allow God to lead you into all truth. Unless you are lucky to be like Paul with a Damascus experience, it will be extremely hard for you to believe that you are fighting God's work. God wants there to be no question in anyone’s mind when he returns. He is calling every one to come talk with Him now. 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 eat with him, and he with me.
