The Feast of Trumpets

One of the most amazing subjects to learn about in the Bible is God’s 7 Feasts and the incredible prophetic significance behind them.  In the wilderness (circa 1334 BC) God first announced these feasts to the Israelites through Moses: “And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, concerning the feasts of the Lord, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, even these are my feasts …” (Leviticus 23:1-2).  The word “feast” was translated from the Hebrew word “mô’ēd” meaning: meeting; appointed time, designated time, season.  And the word “convocation” was translated from the Hebrew word “migrā” meaning: assembly, calling the community together.  Subsequently, these 7 feasts were God’s “appointed times” each year for assembling the people together.  But for what reason?  What was God’s purpose in establishing these holy feast days?  Oh, it couldn’t be more AMAZING!

In the remainder of Leviticus chapter 23 God gives the instructions behind and specific day(s) to keep each of the 7 feasts based on a lunar calendar.  Three feasts were to be kept in the spring month of Nissan: Passover on the 14th, Unleavened Bread from the 15th to 21st, and Firstfruits on the day after the weekly Sabbath occurring during the days of Unleavened Bread.  The fourth feast, the Feast of Weeks, was to be kept 50 days after Firstfruits.  And the last three feasts were to be kept in the fall month of Tishri: Trumpets on the 1st of the month (new moon phase), Day of Atonement on the 10th, and Tabernacles from the 15th to 21st.

Well, when the messiah Christ Jesus arrived on Earth and died on the very day of Passover, becoming our Passover Lamb — “for even Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us” (I Corinthians 5:7) — and rose from the grave on the very day of Firstfruits, becoming the firstfruits resurrection of the dead “But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept … but every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, afterward they that are Christ’s at his coming” (I Corinthians 15:20-23) and sent the Holy Ghost on the very day of the Feast of Weeks (“Pentecost” is a Greek word meaning “50” for the 50 days the Feast of Weeks was kept after Firstfruits) it became rather obvious to those enlightened that something special was behind God’s feasts!  They were as Paul later wrote: “a shadow of things to come” (Colossians 2:17).  Yes, God’s first 4 feasts were prophecy, revealing the VERY DAYS (during a calendar year) in which God the Messiah met with mankind during the time of his First Coming!

Now friend, it doesn’t take a genius to understand the significance behind the remaining three feasts and to realize they too are “appointed times” God has penciled in to meet with mankind in the very near future: Trumpets, Atonement, & Tabernacles!  These are CLEARLY the events left to occur during the time of Christ’s Second Coming: his rapturous return at a Trumpet blast “And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet …” (Matthew 24:31) his official Atonement of the saints “that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come … and he shall send Jesus Christ … whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things” (Acts 3:19-21) and his official Tabernacle with us “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them” (The Revelation 21:3).  Yes, without a doubt, these three feasts will be fulfilled too on their VERY DAYS during a soon coming calendar year.  This year the Feast of Trumpets is occurring right now!  So if you get a chance tonight, go outside and look up at the moonless sky, for THIS is the time of year Christ will return, at the very end of the Antichrist's reign during the phase of a new fall moon!

The 'Sodom & Gomorrah' video

After uploading my testimony video “Gabriel Ansley’s Miraculous Testimony” on September 15, 2010, I was immediately inspired to begin work on creating a video for the revelation God had given me behind the story of Sodom & Gomorrah.  Amazingly, only eight days later I was finished with it, and I uploaded it on September 23, 2010 (exactly a year ago today).  There were no miracles behind the making of this video, except for possibly the “Jewish month” transpiring during which God inspired me to create it, which corresponds perfectly with the meaning behind the story.  I’ll explain.

The Biblical account of God’s wrathful destruction of the land of Sodom & Gomorrah and ALL its wicked inhabitants with FIRE, while saving only ONE righteous ‘house of people’ (Lot’s house) by sending angels to lead them out of the city right before the destruction commenced was/is a precise prophetic picture of what’s going to take place on Earth during Jesus Christ’s Second Coming!  At Christ’s return “immediately AFTER the tribulation of those days” (Matthew 24:29) there will be two types of people on Earth — the wicked who have taken the Antichrist’s mark (in order to be able to buy and sell) and the righteous who have not.  The wicked make up the ‘house of the devil’ which is why Jesus said, “Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do” (John 8:44) and the righteous make up the ‘house of Christ’ which is why Paul wrote, “But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we …” (Hebrews 3:6).  In the end, the righteous will be saved and the wicked will be destroyed.

So it’s just like the story of Sodom & Gomorrah portrayed ... on the day of Christ’s return God will “send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together (rapture) his elect (one righteous house) from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other” (Matthew 24:31) lifting them up off planet Earth into the air to be safe with the Lord, while God simultaneously rains down fire and brimstone, setting the ENTIRE earth on fire to destroy ALL the wicked: “For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and ALL the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts” (Malachi 4:1).  And “the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be BURNED UP” (II Peter 3:10).

This terrible and great ‘day of the Lord’ will arrive during God’s 5th yearly commemorated feast day, known as the the 'Feast of Trumpets'.  God's 7 Feasts (or appointed times with mankind) were prophetic "shadows of things to come" (Colossians 2:16-17).  Jesus fulfilled the prophetic meaning behind the first 4 Feasts on their VERY DAYS during the year of his death, which was Earth’s 4,000 year; subsequently, we would be extremely naive to not understand he will fulfill the prophetic meaning behind the last 3 Feasts on their VERY DAYS during the year of his Second Coming, which will be Earth’s 6,000 year.  The Feast of Trumpets occurs at the phase of a new moon in the late summer/early fall months of each year.  It is penciled in for September 21, 2028 (a HIGHLY LIKELY year of Christ’s return) which is two days less than 17 years from tonight!

The Miracle behind 'Gabriel Ansley's Miraculous Testimony' Video

After experiencing the amazing thunderous rainstorm and rainbow miracle (mirroring the Flood story of Noah!) on the Saturday Sabbath of August 21, 2010, contemporaneous with my creation of the “Noah’s Ark & the Flood” video, I uploaded the video on Monday August 23, 2010.  The next day I woke up, turned on my computer, and tried to connect to the internet … and nothing.  “Hmmm, what’s up?” I wondered.  Then I noticed my external modem was not showing any blinking green lights (not a good sign).  So after several calls (back and forth) to AT&T during the day and some waiting, long story short, I got the news that night from AT&T that my modem was fried and that it would be 3 days or so until they would have a new one at my door.

Confused, I woke up the next day, walked out to my couch in the living room, and sat down to talk to God.  “Lord,” I said, “What’s up?  You asked me to quit my job back in March of this year (during Passover week) to work for you, and you know I’ve been diligently working everyday.  I learned website HTML & CSS coding, I designed a website, I wrote all the chapter summary material for the website, I learned Windows MovieMaker software to make videos, and here I am now without anyway to work for the next 3 days because I can’t get online to search for images to make a video.  Lord, I know you're with me, for you've been doing timely miracles for me along the way, so are you just giving me a break?  You know me Lord, I love to work ... I don’t need a break!

Then, in an instant, the Lord replied, “Son, I’ve laid it on your heart several times in the past month that I want you to make a testimony video of the miraculous things I’ve done in your life.  Well, NOW is that time!!!”  Oh my, instantly I remembered these thoughts had crossed my mind several times in the past month, and I also remembered my thinking each time they had, “I’ll wait until the very end of all my video creating until I make a testimony video, for people will just think I’m being prideful and wanting to gloat about the things God has done for me.”  Wow, so you can imagine my surprise getting this command from the Lord!

Then, as I still sat on the couch, He began to show me how this video didn’t need online images ... it needed me to spend a day combing through my old baby box and finding newspaper clippings and pictures of my life to scan into the computer, it needed me to rearrange my apartment back to the way it looked on the night of May 6, 2005 when my deceased father’s shadowed profile appeared on my refrigerator door, it needed me to then take pictures of the scene with my camera and upload them, it needed me to drive to the Phonoluxe Records store and get the old “Final Cut” movie and “In Another World” Joe Diffie CD for their images and music.  (He told me the store to go to and amazingly they were both there!)  Yes, without a doubt, there was MUCH work to be done for the next video He wanted me to make — He wasn't giving me a break!  LOL — and I didn’t need online for ANY of it! How awesome is God?  He shut my internet connection down to compel me to make a testimony video when He wanted it made!  And a little over 3 weeks later it was done, for I uploaded the video “Gabriel Ansley’s Miraculous Testimony” on Wednesday September 15, 2011 (yesterday, a year ago).

Where Will You Be When the World Stops Turning?

It was a clear Tuesday in Nashville Tennessee, and I was doing carpentry work in a big house right beside Alan Jackson’s 25,000 square feet home off of Moran road.  They were the only two houses in sight in a huge expanse of beautiful green scenery.  In my heart I was far from God, and it was morning time September 11, 2001.  Suddenly, my country radio station was interrupted by a strange report of a plane hitting one of the World Trade Center Twin Towers in New York City.  “Well, that’s weird,” I thought.  Then soon after the report came through that another one had hit the other Tower!  Then the Pentagon!  Then fear hit me, “Are we being attacked?  What’s happening?  How bad is this going to get?”  Sadly, I don’t remember once thinking about or talking to God through the whole ordeal.

But oh what a difference 10 years can make in a life!  Here it is two days before the 10 year anniversary of September 11, 2001 (this Sunday) and yet it feels like just yesterday when the Towers collapsed.  Goodness, how time flies!  And now God is my whole life, and He has me positioned here on the internet delivering a prophetic message to the world for Him that reveals when His son Jesus Christ’s return to Earth will be “even at the doors” (Matthew 24:33).  It hit me the other day that September 2001 was precisely 20 years from September 2021, which is the month and year God has shown me is likely the time the final 7 years (Antichrist’s reign) in this age of sin will commence on Earth.  And then September 2028 during Rosh Hashanah (Feast of Trumpets) is likely the time of Jesus Christ’s rapturous and fiery Second Coming!  If you’ve read my book, you know the significance of the number “20” to God; it's His Biblical number of redemption.  So it is interesting to me that America’s greatest terror attack happened precisely 20 years from the very possible start of the world’s greatest time of terror!

Folks, these next 10 years are going to FLY bye.  Consider the length of time from September 11, 2001 till right now, and then realize that same amount of time is all that’s left till September of 2021 and the Antichrist coming onto the world scene!  I don’t know where you are in your heart towards God, but I feel an awful sense of urgency in mine for the people of the world.  This “thing” is almost over, folks!  The “end” is almost here!  God’s 6 Day (6,000 year) plan is close to completion, and the door to the Kingdom of God will soon be shut!  I’m begging you, if your heart is far from God ... NOW is the time to turn your face towards Him.  If you haven’t talked to Him in awhile ... NOW is the time to begin!  If you’re chasing this perishing world, I implore you to start chasing the eternal God.

Listen, everything on Earth is going to burn in a Flood of Fire in about 17 years!  Peter wrote; “But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness” (II Peter 3:10-11).  Do you understand?  “Holy conversation and Godliness” means “to obey God’s 10 Love Commandments”.  In the end, that’s ALL that’s going to count in your life — i.e. the selfless love you showed God and others.  If you did, you’ll live; if you didn’t, you’ll perish!  Alan Jackson wrote a reflective song about September 11, 2001 called “Where Were You When the World Stopped Turning” but I’m asking you now, approximately 17 years ahead of time, "Where WILL you BE when the world stops turning?"
