2 PETER 3:10=

BUT THE "DAY OF THE LORD" WILL COME LIKE A "THIEF".

(NOTE: THIS VERSE STATES THE "DAY OF THE LORD" WILL COME LIKE A THIEF.

IT WILL COME UPON UNREPENTED (UNSAVED) SINNERS UNEXPECTEDLY. JUST AS A THIEF DOES NOT ANNOUNCE HIS ARRIVAL, NEITHER WILL THE DAY OF THE LORD. THE LORD, WILL HOWEVER, ANNOUNCE HIS ARRIVAL TO US WITH THE 2 TRUMPET CALLS. ONCE IN THE BEGINNING, ONCE AT THE END, PRIOR TO OUR BEING "CAUGHT UP" TO HIM, RIGHT BEFORE THE BEGINNING OF THE "DAY OF THE LORD". THEY DIDNT PREPARE BY ACCEPTING JESUS CHRIST AS THEIR SAVIOR (SOTER).



I PETER 1:4-5=

...KEPT IN HEAVEN FOR YOU, WHO THROUGH FAITH ARE "SHIELDED" BY GOD'S POWER UNTIL THE COMING OF THE "SALVATION" THAT IS READY TO BE REVEALED IN THE "LAST TIME".

GREEK= SALVATION= SOTERIA= RESCUE OR SAFETY. (THIS IS NOT ETERNAL SALVATION OF THE SOUL AND SPIRIT. THS IS BODILY, PHYSICAL RESCUE)



I PETER 3:20-21=

BUT OUR CITIZENSHIP IS IN HEAVEN, AND WE EAGERLY AWAIT A "SAVIOR" FROM THERE, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, WHO BY THE POWER THAT ENABLES HIM TO BRING EVERYTHING UNDER HIS CONTROL, WILL "TRANSFORM" OUR LOWLY BODIES SO THAT THEY WILL BE LIKE HIS GLORIOUS BODY.



2 PETER 2:4-10=

FOR IF GOD DID NOT SPARE ANGELS WHEN THEY SINNED, BUT SENT THEM TO HELL, PUTTING THEM IN GLOOMY DUNGEONS TO BE HELD FOR JUDGEMENT; (GREAT WHITE THRONE JUDGEMENT) IF HE DID NOT SPARE THE ANCIENT WORLD WHEN HE BROUGHT

THE FLOOD ON ITS UNGODLUY PEOPLE, BUT "PROTECTED'(PHLASSO) NOAH, A PREACHER OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND 7 OTHERS; IF HE CONDEMNED THE CITIES OF SODOM AND GOMORRAH BY BURNING THEM TO ASHES, AND MADE THEM AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO THE UNGODLY; AND IF HE "RESCUED" (SOZO) LOT, A RIGHTEOUS MAN, WHO WAS DISTRESSED BY THE FILFTHY LIVES OF LAWLESS MEN (FOR THAT RIGHTEOUS MAN, LIVING AMONG THEM DAY AFTER DAY, WAS TORMENTED IN HIS RIGHTEOUS SOUL BY THE LAWLESS DEEDS HE SAW AND HEARD )-- IF THI IS SO, THEN THE LORD KNOWS HOW TO "DELIVER" (RHUOMAI) GODLY MEN FROM TEMPTATIONS AND TO HOLD THE UNRIGHTEOUS FOR THE DAY OF JUDGEMENT, WHILE CONTINUING THEIR PUNISHMENT.

THIS IS ESPECIALLY TRUE OF THOSE WHO FOLLOW THE CORRUPT DESIRE OF THE SINFUL NATURE AND DESPISE AUTHORITY.

GREEK= DELIVER= RHUOMAI (HROO-OM-AHEE) - AKIN TO "RHEO" (HREH-O) (PRIM. VERB) MEANING TO RESCUE OR DELIVER; TO RUSH OR DRAW (TO ONESELF)



NOTE: THE GREEK FOR "PROTECTED" (AS IN NOAH) = PHULASSO- COMES FROM THE WORD "PHULE (FOO-LAY) MEANING RACE, KINDRED OR TRIBE (SO GOD'S PROTECTION OF NOAH REPRESENTS THE JEW DURING THE TRIBULATION PERIOD. THEY WILL BE PROTECTED "THROUGH" THE TRIBULATION.)

GREEK- RESCUE= SOZO= (AS IN LOT BEING RESCUED)= TO PROTECT, DELIVER, RESCUE. (LOT REPRESENTS THE CHRISTIANS RESCUE FROM GOD'S WRATH)



PSALM 27:5-

FOR IN THE "DAY OF TROUBLE" (RA) HE WILL KEEP ME SAFE IN HIS DWELLING; HE WILL HIDE ME IN THE SHELTER OF HIS TABERNACLE AND SET ME HIGH UPON A ROCK.

HEBREW= TROUBLE= RA ( RAH )= MEANING TROUBLE, BAD ( A NOUN ), EVIL- ADVERSITY, DISTRESS, EXTREMELY GREAT, MISERY, WRETCHEDNESS.

HEBREW= LESSER TROUBLE (EVERYDAY TROUBLES)= TSARAH= AS USED IN PSALM 9:9 (NOTE- THE KEY WORD IS "DAY" OF TROUBLE).



PSALM 50:3-6=

OUR GOD COMES AND WILL NOT BE SILENT; A FIRE DEVOURS BEFORE HIM, AND AROUND HIM A TEMPEST RAGES. HE SUMMONS THE HEAVENS ABOVE, AND THE EARTH, THAT HE MAY JUDGE HIS PEOPLE; "GATHER TO ME MY "SAINTS", WHO MADE A COVENANT WITH ME BY SACRIFICE." AND THE HEAVENS PROCLAIM HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS, FOR GOD HIMSELF IS JUDGE.

HEBREW =SAINTS =CHACIYD =(KHAW-SEED)= KIND, ie; (RELIGIOUS) GODLY (MAN), GOOD, HOLY ONE, MERCIFUL, SAINT.

(NOTE- OBVIOUSLY THE SAINTS ARE BELIEVERS IN CHRIST. WE MADE A COVENANT WITH HIM BY SACRIFICE, THE SACRIFICE BEING HIS SON, JESUS CHRIST, WHO SACRIFICED HIS BLOOD. GO ON DOWN TO 50:16 AND YOU WILL SEE HE IS NOW ADDRESSING THE WICKED.)



JUDE 1:17-25

(1:20)= BUT YOU, DEAR FRIENDS, BUILD YOURSELVES UP IN THE MOST HOLY FAITH, AND PRAY IN THE HOLY SPIRIT.



ISAIAH 35:3-10=

STRENGTHEN THE FEEBLE HANDS, STEADY THE KNEES THAT GIVE WAY; SAY TO THOSE WITH FEARFUL HEARTS, "BE STRONG, DO NOT FEAR; YOUR GOD WILL COME. HE WILL COME WITH "VENGEANCE"; WITH DIVINE "RETRIBUTION HE WILL COME TO SAVE YOU."

HEBREW= SAVE= YASHA (YAW-SHAH)= PREP. IMPLYING TO BE SAFE, RESCUE, DEFEND, SAVE.

(NOTE- USED IN THIS CONTEXT IT MEANS BODY AND SOUL DELIVERENCE. JUST AS THE GREEK MEANING IN THE EARLIER VERSES I WROTE. IF ONE LOOKS CLOSELY AT THE VERSE, IT STATES THAT "YOUR GOD WILL COME. HE WILL COME WITH VENGEANCE; WITH DIVINE RETRIBUTION. HE WILL COME TO SAVE YOU." WHEN JESUS CAME TO EARTH THE 1ST TIME,HE DID NOT COME WITH VENGEANCE TO SAVE US. HE CAME IN PEACE, TO SAVE LOST SINNERS. "SAVE" IS USED TOTALLY DIFFERENT HERE. )



READ IASAIH 40:9-11

40:11= HE TENDS HIS FLOCK LIKE A SHEPHERD; HE GATHERS THE LAMBS IN HIS ARMS AND CARRIES THEM CLOSE TO HIS HEART; HE GENTLY LEADS THOSE THAT HAVE YOUNG.

( DOES THAT SOUND LIKE HE WOULD TAKE VENGEANCE AND WRATH OUT ON THOSE HE LOVES? NO. ONLY HIS ENEMIES. ONE NEEDS TO LOOK AT THE OVERALL PICTURE AND NOT ONE BOOK FROM THE BIBLE. ONE NEEDS TO STUDY THE THOUGHTS OF GOD AND HIS PERSONALITY, AS WELL AS THE GREEK AND HEBREW LANGUAGE, FOR THE CORRECT TRANSLATION. HE TREATS LOVED ONES COMPLETELY DIFFERENET THAN HIS ENEMIES.



THE WISDOM OF SOLOMON 12:22=

SO WHILE CHASTENING US YOU SCOURGE OUR ENEMIES TEN THOUSAND TIMES MORE, SO THAT WHEN WE JUDGE, WE MAY MEDITATE UPON YOUR GOODNESS, AND WHEN WE ARE JUDGED, WE MAY EXPECT MERCY.



THE WISDOM OF SOLOMON 16:10-11=

BUT YOUR CHILDREN WERE NOT CONQUERED EVEN BY THE FANGS OF VENEMOUS SERPENTS, FOR YOUR MERCY CAME TO THEIR HELP AND HEALED THEM. TO REMIND THEM OF YOUR ORACLES THEY WERE BITTEN, AND THEN WERE QUICKLY DELIVERED, SO THAT THEY WOULD NOT FALL INTO DEEP FORGETFULNESS AND BECOME UNRESPONSIVE TO YOUR KINDNESS. )



AN ALLEGORY:



EXODUS 19:10-12=

AND THE LORD SAID TO MOSES, "GO TO THE PEOPLE AND CONSECRATE (MAKE HOLY) THEM TODAY (1ST MILLINIUM) AND TOMORROW (2ND MILLINIUM). HAVE THEM WASH THEIR CLOTHES AND "BE READY" BY THE "THIRD DAY" (3RD MLLINUM) BECAUSE "ON THAT DAY" THE LORD WILL COME DOWN ON MOUNT SANAI IN THE SIGHT OF ALL THE PEOPLE.

....19:13-... ONLY WHEN THE "RAM'S HORN" SOUNDS A "LONG BLAST" MAY THEY GO UP TO THE MOUNTAIN."

..19:15-...ON THE MORNING OF THE "THIRD DAY"(3RD MILLINIUM) THERE WAS THUNDER AND LIGHTENING, WITH A THICK CLOUD OVER THE MOUNTAIN, AND A "VERY LOUD TRUMPET BLAST". EVERYONE IN THE CAMP TREMBLED. THEN, MOSES LED THE PEOPLE OUT OF THE CAMP "TO MEET WITH GOD" AND THEY STOOD AT THE FOOT OF THE MOUNTAIN.



I BELIVE THIS TO BE A PROPHETIC PARALELL JUST LIKE NOAH AND LOT ARE PROPHETIC PARALLELS. NOTICE THE KEY WORDS IN QUOTATIONS.



MOSES (JUST AS JESUS ) IS PERPARING HIS PEOPLE TO MEET GOD. GOD HAS SET GUIDELINES AND PERIMETERS IN ORDER FOR THIS TO BE ACCOMPLISHED. WHEN ARE THE PEOPLE TO MEET GOD ? ON THE 3RD DAY!

(PARALLEL IS 3RD MILLINIUM ! )

JESUS, SIMILAR TO MOSES, HAS PREPARED

US TO BE IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD FOR ETERNITY. THE ONLY WAY WE COULD BE IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD THE FATHER WAS FOR US TO BE MADE HOLY (CONSECRATED ) THROUGH THE SACRIFICIAL BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST. JESUS HAS PREPARED

HIS PEOPLE FROM 2,OOO YEARS WHICH IS PARALLEL TO THE 1ST AND 2ND DAY THAT MOSES PREPARED HIS PEOPLE.

JUST AS THE RAM'S HORN SOUNDED AS A SIGNAL FOR THE BELIEVERS TO MEET GOD AT THE MOUNTAIN, IT WILL SOUND AGAIN FOR US TO MEET JESUS IN THE CLOUDS.

OFCOURSE, WE DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHEN IT WILL HAPPEN, BUT WE ARE NOW IN THE "3RD DAY".
