Gen 7:4 For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.KJV
Gen. 7:4 For in seven days I will send rain on the earth forty days and forty nights, and every living thing that I have made I will blot out from the face of the ground.” ESV
Gen. 7:4 Seven days from now I will send rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights, and I will wipe from the face of the earth every living creature I have made.” NIV
Amos 3:7 Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.
According to scripture, Noah knew the day exactly when the rain would start the flood. Do you believe the Church, the Body of Christ will receive like knowledge of he onset of the start of the tribulation events .
the great tribulation has already begun, some people already know
from experience that now is the last time when the true Saints and followers/worshipers of the true God are most persecuted, but the persecutions against them are largely spiritual i.e. in a spiritual/occult way, i can also say, without boasting about any thing of myself, i also know form experience the people that speak the perfect truth of the true Lord God are most hated and persecuted now, albeit largely in a spiritual/occult way, if a man is a part of the kingdom of human(666) religion, then he may not be so persecuted, and may even not suffer, but if a man is devoted/faithful to the true Lord God, then he may be very persecuted, even enormously, but the worshipers/clerics of the system of human(666) religion may even not know that the great tribulation already began
Why no?
Yes they did.However the cry went out that the bridegroom was coming. They had warning enough to waken and trim their lamps. All of them woke up at the same time. Some were ready and some were not ready. But all of them had the same warning.The 10 virgins knew the bridegroom was coming...
but not exactly when the bridegroom was coming
and they all fell asleep waiting...

"I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness; I saw your forefathers as the earliest fruit on the fig tree in its first season
So you think it was just one big coinkydink that those historical neighbors of Israel all came back to life at about the same time as the Fig? It's not that I don't prefer a literal interpretation, it's that a literal one won't work or make any sense here.
The Fig tree sheds it's WINTER fruit, not summer.
I wonder what you think "all the trees" means.
When Jesus says: "So also, when you see these things taking place", He has to be talking about the earlier items from the list because the idea here is that He's trying to give us a heads up on the "coming of the son of Man".
But I understand that it's an incredible thing to consider because it would mean that He is right at the very door now.
OT, I was curious about your picture of the dancing animals. I remember your old avatar of the one single psychedelic yellow bear. So I did an image search with tin eye and couldn't find too much except that those same images kept coming up on various cannabis forums. I haven't had a TV in operation since 2006 so for all that I know the little dancing animals may be part of some new sit com or characters in a children's cartoon show.
What are they any way?
I fail to understand your meaning in this post.This has nothing to do with whether we, the children of God, will have warning prior to the onset of the events of the GT..
The Edomite FAKE "Jews" are not "olives" because they are not Israelites.
As Revelation 2:9 and Revelation 3:9 tells us, they are the synagogue of satan.

Where is whatever I said that has you conclude I was discounting or choosing to discount what God is showing, or indeed that I am such a one that this passage of the second epistle of Peter refers to? Where is it specified that it is Iran that is the chief threat to Israel in their land, in biblical prophecy? You and some others will see it obvious that signs show prophesied change worldwide is extremely close. I believe such change will come, but it isn't obvious to me, or to all others, that it is as close as you say it is. I see it more certain that change will come with America to be weakened or it is facing something more destructive to it, it could involve all our irresponsibility to this world God is providing for us, and with many that are in it.
keras said:Elam, the southern and western region of Iran:
Isaiah 21:6, Iran and her allies, prepare to attack.
Jeremiah 49:35-36, At the moment of attack, the Lord will destroy them.
Ezekiel 32:24-25, They go to Sheol along with all the godless peoples.
AlasBabylon said:Elam was the son of Shem [grandson of Noah.] Genesis 10:22
Elam was conquered by Babylon = Jeremiah 49
Secular history tells us that Cyrus [God's anointed king = Isaiah 45] first arose in Elam.
And that dovetails with Jeremiah 49:38 "I will set My throne in Elam." The Babylonian
governor of Elam defected to Cyrus. Cyrus united the Medes/Persians into God's army
[Isaiah 13.] Cyrus conquered Babylon, liberated God's people and decreed the temple
in Jerusalem be rebuilt. Cyrus' Persians ruled from Egypt to India... including Judea...
for two centuries. But Cyrus was different from most kings... he appointed governors
of the different lands from among the people of those lands. Thus Israelites were able
to rule in Judea under the sovereignty and protection of Cyrus, Darius, Xerxes, etc...
during which Jerusalem and the temple were rebuilt. Ezra 6
... Cyrus, He is My shepherd, and shall perform all My pleasure: even saying to Jerusalem,
Thou shalt be built; and to the temple, Thy foundation shall be laid.
Isaiah 44:28.
AlasBabylon said:As I posted in detail above... in the OT... after Cyrus arose in Elam to create the Persian empire... Persia was Israel's ally.
In Ezekiel 38:5... prophecy about the end of the age... Persia is listed among Gog's allies.
But it is important to note that Cyrus' Persians were different racially [they were Aryans] and religiously [they were
Zoroastrians.] The ancient Zoroastrians worshiped one invisible god they called "Wise Lord", had a form of baptism
and believed in the future resurrection of the dead. Ironically, like the Israelites, Cyruis' Persians were also divided
into 10-12 tribes. I believe they were descendants of the "lost" 10 Northern tribes of Israel that Assyria had resettled
in the "cities of the Medes" in the 8th century BC. 2 Kings 17:6 2 Kings 18:11.

Them last two posts are informative but off topic. Do I need to post the OP again?
But the servant who is watchful, wise and kind will NOT be surprised right? Does that mean there will be a warning?The parable still calls both guys "servants".
The one who is NOT "faithful and wise" will be surprised.
The master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he does not know.
