  1. Feast of Trumpets 9-11-2026 The absolute deadline for a pre-tribulational

  2. rapture if in fact Jesus Christ was crucified in 33

  3. AD because according to the promises of God which we're

  4. going to talk about today From Hosea chapter 6 verse 2.

    Hosea 6:2

  5. He promises us that after 2,000 years He will raise

  6. us up that we might live in His presence, praise God. So,

  7. take note. Issuing this trudge report, you know I love

  8. to trudge. We're supposed to pick up our crosses and

  9. follow Jesus. So, with that in mind, God bless everybody.

  10. Matthew Miller here from Maranatha Ministries issuing a trudge report today.

  11. And why do we trudge? Because He commanded us to

  12. do so, to pick up our crosses and follow Him.

  13. You must be born again. You must be baptized in

  14. the Holy Spirit. So take note. Very windy day. Last

  15. I checked, these winds were 20 miles an hour. So...

  16. Just chomping at the bit. As the spirit moves. I

  17. let him lead as directed. And he has just prompt me.

  18. Just chomping at the bit. To do another live stream today.

  19. You know I love to. Whenever I preach. You can't

  20. stand still. Never could stand behind a pulpit. I got

  21. to be out free moving. If anybody would like to.

  22. Check out my last sermon. That I have online. Just

  23. look up on my. YouTube channel, of course. As the

  24. day approaches, you'll find the video. So anyway, boy, these

  25. winds are treacherous. They really are. I'm surprised I haven't

  26. blown my hat off yet. So anyway, let's get into it.

  27. Let's pick it up at the beginning. We're going to

  28. go to the actual prophecy here. Hosea chapter 6, the

    Hosea 6 chapter mention

  29. first three verses. He gives you a whole lot of information.

  30. And not only that, it's going to bring clarity as

  31. to how we don't endure the wrath of God. Very

  32. important for you to know that. It's very important that

  33. you understand that the Bible is very clear. The Lord

  34. deals out the wrath of God At Armageddon, before he

  35. comes to the place prepared. Yes, he does. Armageddon happens

  36. before the rapture. Thus saith the Lord. Take note. Armageddon

  37. happens the instance of his return. He takes all the

  38. bad guys out and the first resurrection is mentioned when?

  39. That's right. Very next chapter. chapter 20 so it's good

  40. that we answer these questions so when does the rapture

  41. happen does Armageddon happen first yada yada these things are

  42. important questions to ask very important questions to ask let's

  43. get into it so Hosea chapter 6 verses 1 through

    Hosea 6:1–3

  44. 3 this is the categorical truth this is quite simply

  45. beyond contestation this is the truth This is the gospel truth.

  46. Come and let us return to the Lord, for he

  47. has torn, but he will heal us. He has stricken,

  48. but he will bind us up. So take note. This

  49. is clearly telling you that what he told you in

  50. Matthew chapter 24, the verse 14 verses are true. Those

    Matthew 24 chapter mention

  51. verses are true. You have to go through the birth pangs.

  52. At the end of the birth pangs, just like Jesus

  53. Christ said in Matthew chapter 24, the abomination of desolation happens,

    Matthew 24 chapter mention

  54. at which point you have to flee to the hills,

  55. and at which point the angels will come and gather

  56. you together to the place prepared. Verse 2, After two

  57. days he will revive us, on the third day he

  58. will raise us up, that we may live in his sight.

  59. This isn't in heaven. It's not in heaven. He said

  60. that he would raise us up. that we may live

  61. in His sight. If you're in your physical bodies, you're alive. So,

  62. how do you know this happens? How do you know

  63. that the latter rain outpouring happens during the birth pangs?

  64. Verse 3 comes right out and tells you. Let us know,

  65. let us pursue the knowledge of the Lord. His going

  66. forth is established as the morning. He will come to

  67. us like rain. like the latter rain and the former

  68. rain to the earth. What's going to happen? Okay. The

  69. relocation prophecy model is just redundant in the scriptures. It

  70. provides all proof. All verses point to it. So, with

  71. that in mind, that's what he just said. He just

  72. said that he was going to come to you, this

  73. is the pillar of the presence. We're going to read

  74. about this in Revelation chapter 7, but before we do that,

    Revelation 7 chapter mention

  75. we need to make it perfectly clear. So he gathers

  76. you together that we might stand up, Hosea chapter 6 said,

    Hosea 6 chapter mention

  77. after two days. So you have to determine Jesus Christ's crucifixion.

  78. All historical evidence... While astronomical evidence proves that Passover began

  79. sundown on Thursday and only two years during the reign

  80. of Pontius Pilate. That was 30 AD and 33 AD.

  81. The Bible redundantly says, Old and New Testament, that to

  82. the day, that to the Lord a day is like

  83. a thousand years and a thousand years are like a day.

  84. He literally told you, just told you, after 2,000 years,

  85. Daniel's final 70th week would resume. Because the prophet Daniel

  86. is very clear, once again. This is why Jesus Christ,

  87. in Matthew chapter 24, starting in verse 15, tells you

    Matthew 24 chapter mention

  88. that's the abomination of desolation. Daniel's 70th week resumes. That's

  89. what he was saying. Because we know what Daniel the

  90. prophet said. that in the middle of Daniel's final 70th week,

  91. the Messiah would be cut off. He would be crucified.

  92. And when he did, he would end all sacrifice and offering.

  93. That already came true. That's a historical fact. So he's

  94. telling you in Matthew chapter 24, verse 15, that's the

    Matthew 24:15

  95. final 70th week resumes. It's exactly when you tear apart

  96. the Hebrew and the Greek of the Masoretic and the Septuagint,

  97. It's perfectly clear that when the final 70th week resumes,

  98. it resumes because of the abomination of desolation, and it

  99. lasts for three and a half years.

  100. This is why all academics will tell you that because

  101. there's three Passovers in the book of John, you can

  102. fairly well prove beyond any shadow of a doubt Jesus

  103. Christ's ministry was three and a half years.

  104. Yes, it was. So when you know that, when you

  105. know all the historical references that you need to establish

  106. the ministry of Jesus Christ, take note. It is Elul

  107. the first, the Hebrew month, wherein you begin to repent

  108. of for all your sins leading up to the Day

  109. of Atonement 40 days later. This is a true statement.

  110. This is true. So Jesus Christ was baptized on the

  111. first day below. That's why the devil immediately tempted him

  112. for 40 days. Jesus Christ literally was baptized. He was

  113. anointed by God per the book of Acts to begin

  114. his ministry. He was tempted for 40 days. And on

  115. the Day of Atonement, He went gangbusters. All these things

  116. are true. So, when you know that, you know that

  117. what He just said is true. The pillar of the

  118. presence is going to come to us, not God the Son.

  119. Not God the Son, the pillar of the presence. That's

  120. going to come to you, and you're going to stay there.

  121. Revelation chapter 12, I can just... I can just redundantly

    Revelation 12 chapter mention

  122. repeat verse after verse after verse after verse after verse.

  123. God repeatedly says, please look this YouTube playlist up on

  124. my channel. The pillar of the presence. Just go gangbusters

  125. with me. He calls this place so many different names,

  126. it's ridiculous to deny it. If you deny this, it's ridiculous.

  127. So anyway, let's skip over to see what happens at

  128. the end. So at the return of Christ after the

  129. battle of Armageddon, what happens? Now, we know that Jesus

  130. Christ himself said in the New Testament, He calls this

  131. place that's prepared for us by God from Revelation chapter 12,

    Revelation 12 chapter mention

  132. he calls it his barn. The angels gather us to

  133. his barn. Then he says that he bundles up the

  134. tares in these bundles. What is 666? The tares are

  135. bundled into bundles by the mark of the beast. That's

  136. what he's saying. So with this in mind, what happens

  137. when Jesus Christ comes to get us out of our barn?

  138. comes right out and tells you. Micah chapter 2, verses

    Micah 2:12

  139. 12 and 13. It comes right out and tells you,

  140. you just have to believe it. You just have to

  141. believe what the Bible says because it is the Word.

  142. It is why those that have not been born again

  143. will make martyrs.

  144. Out of us.

  145. Once again, Revelation chapter 6, verse 9 is very clear.

    Revelation 6:9

  146. What's coming with the great apostasy is not a war

  147. of religion. Like what was triggered by the Great Reformation,

  148. this won't be Catholics killing Protestants. It'll be congregants killing

  149. God and the congregation that's been born again. Like in

  150. chapter 2, verse 12, I will surely assemble all of you,

  151. O Jacob. I will surely gather the remnant of Israel.

  152. I will put them together like sheep of the fold.

  153. like a flock in the midst of their pasture. They

  154. shall make a loud noise because so many people, praise God.

  155. This is Isaiah chapter 40, praise God. Verse 13, the

    Isaiah 40 chapter mention

  156. one who breaks open, Jesus Christ comes back, obliterates the

  157. enemy at the battle of Armageddon. That's the one, he's

  158. getting ready to tell you he's not lying. The one

  159. who breaks open will come up before them. They will

  160. break out, pass through the gate, and go out by it.

  161. Their king will pass before them. Their lord at their head.

  162. Here it's literally telling you Jesus Christ and the pillar

  163. of the presence will be there at the same time.

  164. Until Jesus Christ leads us out into his millennial kingdom,

  165. it'll be just like when... The children of Israel crossed

  166. the Jordan into the promised land. What happened? The pillar

  167. of the presence went back to heaven. Yes, it did. Oh, yes,

  168. it did. It stayed with them the entire wandering in

  169. the wilderness. That's how they moved. They only moved. There's

  170. only 42 stations in the wilderness because that's how many

  171. times the pillar of the presence would rise up from

  172. the ground and move. Everybody would pitch their tents and

  173. follow them. This is the truth, everybody knows it. So

  174. once you realize that's what's being described here, now we're

  175. going to go to Revelation chapter 7, starting in verse 9,

    Revelation 7 chapter mention

  176. and all this is going to make sense. You're not

  177. going to heaven. The pillar of the presence is going

  178. to come to you. That's categorically what I just read

  179. to you. Okay, what I did was just list for

  180. you the facts. As I read the verses in succession,

  181. it was just a list of facts. When I read

  182. verse 1, that was fact 1. When I read verse 2,

  183. that was fact 2. When I read verse 3, it

  184. was fact 3. And so on and so forth. Okay?

  185. So now when we get here, this translation I'm going

  186. to read, and all English translations, has problems. That's why

  187. God's Word is the original languages of Hebrew and Greek.

  188. It's not English. But here in verse 15, he literally says,

  189. in Greek, he will skianou, tent, tabernacle. He will tabernacle

  190. over us. Literally wasn't what it says. I'm not joking.

  191. So you need to know that's what's talking about here.

  192. The angels bring up, the angels take us to this

  193. pillar of the presence. Why do they have to do this? Well,

  194. ladies and gentlemen, Christians are of every make and model.

  195. They're of every nationality and ethnic group. Oh yes, they are.

  196. Christians are not a group of Nazis. We're not nationalists.

  197. We never were. So because of that, the first time

  198. this happened, and remember, Isaiah chapter 11 verses 11 and

    Isaiah 11:11

  199. 12 states categorically the pillar of the presence is going

  200. to be here on earth only twice. Twice. Once again.

  201. We're just stating the facts. So, Isaiah chapter 11 verses

    Isaiah 11:11

  202. 11 and 12 is just two more facts. It says

  203. it only happens twice and it hasn't happened a second time.

  204. It's only happened one time. So when you know that,

  205. when you accept what God is telling you, you realize that, well,

  206. if the pillar of the presence, if it comes down

  207. in a very inaccessible place, let's say the Grand Canyon,

  208. if it comes down the Grand Canyon, how will the

  209. Ethiopian Christians get there? Well, ladies and gentlemen, you have

  210. to realize the list of verses that are the list

  211. of facts of how that happens. It's called Isaiah chapter 40.

    Isaiah 40 chapter mention

  212. That's where Operation Eagle's Wings comes from. Revelation chapter 12.

    Revelation 12 chapter mention

  213. The angels will pick up the born-again believers that are

  214. in Ethiopia and carry them to the Grand Canyon or

  215. wherever else it is the pillar of the presence is

  216. going to come down. Because remember, I already give you

  217. the verse. Micah 2, verse 13 is the truth. When

    Micah 2:13

  218. we get raptured and he brings us out of this sheepfold,

  219. the king is there and the Lord is there too.

  220. The pillar of the presence is there. So anyway, that's

  221. what this is going to say. No matter what words

  222. are used in English, That's what it's going to say.

  223. It's going to say that this is day one of

  224. the 1,260-day tribulation. This is day one of the 42-month-long tribulation.

  225. This is day one of the three-and-a-half-year tribulation. This is

  226. times time and half a time before the return of

  227. Jesus Christ. That's what it's getting ready to tell you. Okay, so,

  228. Revelation chapter 7... Starting in verse 9, all the way

    Revelation 7 chapter mention

  229. to verse 17. These are not verses, they're just a

  230. list of facts. So, the New King James Version has

  231. a list, has the title before this stanza. A multitude

  232. from the Great Tribulation. Verse 9. After these things I looked,

  233. and behold, a great multitude, which no one could number,

  234. of all the nations... tribes, people, and tongues, standing before

  235. the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes

  236. with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with

  237. a loud voice, saying, Salvation belongs to our God who

  238. sits on the throne and to the Lamb. All the

  239. angels stood around the throne, and the elders and the

  240. four living creatures fell on their faces before the throne

  241. and worshiped God, saying, Amen. blessings and glory and wisdom,

  242. thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our

  243. God forever and ever. Amen. Then one of the elders answered,

  244. saying to me, Who are these arrayed in white robes

  245. and where did they come from? And I said to him, Sir,

  246. you know. So he said to me, These are the

  247. ones who have come out of the great tribulation and

  248. washed their robes and made them white with the blood

  249. of the Lamb. Therefore they are before the throne of God,

  250. and serve him day and night in his temple, and

  251. he who sits on the throne will dwell among them.

  252. Let's start with what this says in Greek. In Greek

  253. it says he will stretch his tabernacle over them. He

  254. is categorically talking about the pillar of the presence. We'll

  255. get to the Greek here in a minute. Let me

  256. finish verse 17. For the Lamb who sits in the

  257. midst of the throne will shepherd them and will lead

  258. them to living fountains of waters, and God will wipe

  259. every tear away from their eyes. This is how they

  260. spin the Great Tribulation. This is how they spin it.

  261. This is how it works out. It is this way

  262. and no other way. So let's get to verse 15

  263. and take a look at the Greek. I will explain

  264. it to you. So, it says that he shall dwell,

  265. this is Skenu, this is G4637 in the Strong's Concordance.

  266. This is to tabernacle, it means to live in a tent.

  267. Doesn't mean anything else. And it says epi. Now, this

  268. Greek word is G1909. It means upon or over. It

  269. means upon or over. Literally translated, this verse should be translated,

  270. he who sitteth upon the throne will tabernacle over them.

  271. I don't think I know. I know I know. So,

  272. when you realize the succession of these list of facts,

  273. you've got Hosea, chapter 6, verses 1, 2, and 3.

    Hosea 6:1

  274. You've got Micah, chapter 2, verses 12 and 13. You've

    Micah 2:12

  275. got Revelation chapter seven, verses nine through 17. These are

  276. lists of facts that historic premillennialism is the plain reading

  277. prophecy model. It is based upon no inferences. It's only

  278. based on facts. That's why all Christians, all the wheat,

  279. all the sheep, that existed before the Council of Nicaea

  280. believed no other thing except the plain reading prophecy of

  281. historic premillennials. Now Maranatha Ministries, we have modified it to

  282. include during the tribulation this relocation to the pillar of

  283. the presence, which like I said, check out my youtube

  284. playlist you will see that the list of facts that

  285. i present provide existential evidence according to the scriptures and

  286. according to the scriptures alone now well i know this

  287. has been a windy trudge but i sure did enjoy

  288. doing it i enjoy letting the spirit move and i

  289. just can't stand in one place and be stagnant and

  290. really preach with any effectiveness But anyway, those of you

  291. that have been baptized in the Holy Spirit, I plead

  292. and beg you that if you have any encouraging comments

  293. or prayers, please put those in the comments and please

  294. like the video and share the video. And please subscribe

  295. to the channel. And get ready. Get ready. Get ready.

  296. I'm here to tell you, you're going through the birth pangs.

  297. And we may very well be right on top of

  298. them for the aforementioned reasons. It's a matter of fact,

  299. Jesus Christ was crucified in either 30 or 33 A.D.

  300. The birth pangs come before the tribulation. You better get

  301. prepared for them. Because if He was crucified in 30 A.D.,

  302. this is coming up. Till next time.
