They say unto him, Yea, Lord

So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just, And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things?

They say unto him,

Yea, Lord. ”  

Matthew 13:49-51

and death shall flee from them

Hell, Hades, Sheol, Tartarus, the Abyss, the Bottomless Pit, the Lake of Fire, Gehenna, places of torment, its a common arrogance that God should behave as we expect him with regard to the spirit and eternal judgement.

To expect a loving omnipotent God would never require punishment for those uncovered is a way that seems right to our understanding, but as Jesus recounted the story of Lazarus, we have Moses and the prophets and now with the Gospels we have even more than the rich man had for consideration, we are without excuse,

When Jesus returns it will be with “the day of vengeance of our God” and with the Jubilee, then both the Beast and False Prophet are thrown alive into the lake of fire, where Satan catches up with them one-thousand years later,

“And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time?”  Matthew 8:28

Believers are in this world but not of it,  its our choice only to accept his grace, and its his grace that saves us, God is sovereign, his ways are not our ways, don’t ask for his justice instead of his mercy or we would all perish,

Satan desired to give Jesus a way out from the punitive measures of (our) sin, away from suffering and death to obtain the kingdom of the flesh immediately, but Jesus quoted scripture (himself, the word) until he departed,

I’ve always suspected that eternal torment is why God brooded over the creation, knowing that many were always going to choose evil, but he knew you and me and everyone that was, is and ever will be alive in the world, and we were always supposed to be alive, this is omnipotence,

There are ‘principalities and powers’ and rulers of darkness in high places for which we believers are in spiritual battle against, the war is raging whether the participants are aware or not.

And why understanding prophecy is so important is because the one telling us the end from the beginning is also describing in very physical and direct terms the extreme punitive measures to be meted out not only upon his people (Israel) who having failed the provisions of the Law and Ordinances and being punished in the flesh (in the here and now) and in fact were punished from 70 AD until 1967 with the destruction of Jerusalem and the diaspora, and further for which we have in this past month (December 2012) witnessed for ourselves how the god of this world is attempting to undo that very restoration from the physical punitive measures God enacted in keeping his ordinances with Israel, whereby God will use them to complete the covenant which is tied to the land as much as to the people with whom it was promised, and then equally for the Earth, its inhabitants,  and the final Jubilee restoration of all things under the law as recounted in Daniel Chapter 7 and Revelation Chapters 4 and 5.

The “court will sit” as we’re told in Daniel Chapter 7, and when the judgement begins and with Jesus in the role of our kinsman of Adam, who having inserted himself into the holy framework of the Laws and Ordinances which he himself provided, alone is able to redeem this world away from a failed Adam, who erred in giving it to Satan and the world to its certain destruction,

To believers,  all of whom being his Church, in the spirit with his Kingdom and granted all power to bind and loose in the spirit on the Earth, and not in the flesh being always Israel,  then believers who have the blessed hope of being found in the Lambs Book of Life written (before) the foundation of the world, for which the second death has no power,

“And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.” Revelation 9:6

I believe this verse was written for those who expect and desire for this world to be all there is, a life of no accountability and the willful resentment even for the consideration of it, then blissful nothingness,

And when they “shall see these things begin to come to pass” as we’re told in Mark 13:29. The destruction and judgement on the Earth at the time of End, the last days, coming precisely as Jesus said, then instead of lifting their heads and looking up, and without having a deeper knowledge of why these days have come, they’ll be troubled but without understanding to find their way,

They’ve exchanged the truth for (the) lie, instead relying on their own supposed worldly enlightenment, riding on their natural experience without the spirit to illuminate, but prophecy fulfilled is available as a witness even to the spiritually blind,

They desire to die, but something in them will understand (maybe even for the first time) that they cannot, they will be accountable to a just God, and they can still be saved, this is the conflict

it’s always been our arrogance keeping his grace from our understanding, we can only take the pardon granted to us freely by the one who died in our place so we wouldn’t have to face the second death,

“The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished: But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.” 2 Peter 2:9-10

“Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.” Revelation 20:14-15

“then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be saved? And he said unto them, Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able. When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are: Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets. But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out.” Luke 13:23-28

Counting from the mid-point of a 7000 year (week) pattern:

|–———–3500 years———-| March 14th, 445 BC

March 14,  445 BC, as the starting point of the 490 years (or 70 sevens) determined per Daniel Chapter 9, is 69 sevens (x360 days) or 173, 880 days exactly counting to  April 6th, 32 AD, while September 27, 2 BC is precisely 11, 880 days to the very same day.

March 14th, 445 BC                 |—-483 years—-| April 6th,32 AD
September 27, 2 BC                             |33 years| April 6th,32 AD

Of the 70 Weeks or 490 years determined per Daniel 9:25,

|-49-|–434–| = 483 years total to April 6th, 32 AD, 49 with the Jubilee which was rejected and fell upon the Church leaving 56 years remaining of the 490 when Messiah was cutoff or |-49-|-7-|  =  490 years

Jerusalem Restored |——49 years——|Yom Kippur 2015
Jerusalem Restored |——49 years——|–2520–|-–40–|Rosh Hashanah 2022

April 6th, 32 AD is exactly 17 years, or 6120 days (x360) to Wednesday on a 7000 year/week pattern, or being day 1,440,000 coming to January 6th 49 AD, leaving 7000 more days and then 888 days to the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple in 70 AD just as Jesus described,
