Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... Acts 1 7 And HE (Jesus) said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in HIS own power. We may not know the exact time Jesus will return, but when we see Israel surrounded by armies and attacked, I believe a trumpet sounds for those of us who belong to God and know Bible. (When the leaves fall, we know winter comes next and it is only a matter of time before snow falls. I believe everything changed as of October 1 at 12:45 pm / ET, when Iran fired missiles on Israel. From this point on it will be expansion... one thing after another.) 💥💥💥 A look back 2000 years: Just before Jesus ascended into heaven ... Jesus said: Acts 7 8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto ME both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. 9 And when HE had spoken these things, while they beheld, HE was taken up; and a cloud received HIM out of their sight. And since that time that Jesus was taken up into heaven, we (the church) have been waiting for the return of Jesus, the great tribulation, the end of this present heaven and earth. The heavens and earth will pass by fire. God has created new heavens and new earth for the righteous. And only the righteous will be in that new heaven and new earth. There will be no more bodies of human flesh. Then there will only be righteous spirits. (I Cor. 15) Acts 1 10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as HE went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; 11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven. 12 Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a sabbath day's journey. (Where the wait for the return of Jesus began.) 2 Peter 3 7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. 8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. While we view this time between the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus as 2000+ years ... in God's sight it has only been 2 days! Revelation 22:20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus. 💥💥💥 What's next? The great tribulation where God judges this earth with HIS 14 plagues ... that could take a few decades ... expect one plague after another ... and then this heaven and earth soars with fire and a loud noise vanishes ... Jesus returns and gathers HIS church and we are changed into our new spiritual bodies and are taken to the new heaven and new earth, the new Jerusalem wherein there are only the righteous! Matthew 24 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple. 2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. 3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? 4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. 9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. 10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. 15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) 16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: 17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house: 18 Neither let him which is in the field ...
