Mt Sinai vs.

The Rapture
Hebrews 12:26
(26) whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath
promised, saying, Yet once more will I make to tremble not the
earth only, but also the heaven.
Wilderness of Sin
Exodus 16:1
 (1) And they took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of
the children of Israel came unto the wilderness of Sin, which is
between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after
their departing out of the land of Egypt.

Note:
 Egypt is a reference to the World and Worldly Living.
 Is it not interesting to note that on the way to the promised land they had to go
through the wilderness first?
 To top it the wilderness is called SIN.

Wilderness of Sin
Exodus 16:3
 (3) and the children of Israel said unto them, Would that we had died
by the hand of Jehovah in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh-
pots, when we did eat bread to the full; for ye have brought us forth
into this wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger.

Note:
 Again the children of the Lord has to be saved from the World and again will
we have to go through a Wilderness of SIN in order to be saved.
 There will be a drought of the Word of God due to the SIN. Again God's
children will murmur...

Wilderness of Sin
Exodus 16:4
 (4) Then said Jehovah unto Moses, Behold, I will rain bread from
heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a day's portion
every day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in my law,
or not.

Note:
 Did you notice that during this time the LORD gave bread (the Word) and that
each one had to collect it THEMSELVES?
  Why? The Lord wants to see if you will follow His Word or not.
Wilderness of Sin
Exodus 16:8
 (8) And Moses said, This shall be, when Jehovah shall give you in
the evening flesh to eat, and in the morning bread to the full; for
that Jehovah heareth your murmurings which ye murmur against him:
and what are we? your murmurings are not against us, but against
Jehovah.

Note:
 In the morning they received bread (the Word) and in the evening (which
refers to sin) they received meat (the Lamb crucified).
 As we get closer to the end God reveals more and more to His children. Read
with v12.

Wilderness of Sin
Exodus 16:12
 (12) I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel: speak unto
them, saying, At even ye shall eat flesh, and in the morning ye shall be
filled with bread: and ye shall know that I am Jehovah your God.

Exodus 16:10
 (10) And it came to pass, as Aaron spake unto the whole congregation
of the children of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and,
behold, the glory of Jehovah appeared in the cloud.

Note:
 In the cloud? Interesting! This makes me think of Jesus' return on the cloud to
fetch His children - Rapture.

Wilderness of Sin
Exodus 16:22
 (22) And it came to pass, that on the sixth day they gathered twice as
much bread, two omers for each one: and all the rulers of the
congregation came and told Moses.
Note:
 Just as we need to "gather" twice as much of the Word before the end. Not
only for our daily need but also in preparation for the time when we will be
unable to do much.

Wilderness of Sin
Exodus 16:28
 (28) And Jehovah said unto Moses, How long refuse ye to keep my
commandments and my laws?

Note:
 Again there will be people who will refuse to abide by God's Word.

Wilderness of Sin
Exodus 17:1
 (1) And all the congregation of the children of Israel journeyed from
the wilderness of Sin, by their journeys, according to the
commandment of Jehovah, and encamped in Rephidim: and there was
no water for the people to drink.

Note:
 Remember, Jesus has the Living Water and as long as we do not have Jesus
we can not have this living water.

Wilderness of Sin
Exodus 17:6
 (6) Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb;
and thou shalt smite the rock, and there shall come water out of it,
that the people may drink. And Moses did so in the sight of the elders
of Israel.

Note:
 Psa 18:2 "Jehovah is my rock"
  Psa 62:6 "He only is my rock and my salvation"
 Mat 16:18 "on this rock I will build my church"
Wilderness of Sin
 Jer 2:13 "they have forsaken me, the fountain of living waters"
 Joh 4:10 "thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee
living water"
 Joh 7:38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, from within him
shall flow rivers of living water

 Joh 19:6 "When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him, they
cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him!"
 Rev 1:7 Behold, he cometh with the clouds; and every eye shall see him, and
they that pierced him; and all the tribes of the earth shall mourn over him.
Even so, Amen

Note:
 1 - Jesus is our Rock
 2 - Jesus (being our rock) gives us living water
 3 - Jesus was crucified in front of the "elders" in fact, it was the "elders"
which said "crucify him"

The Rapture?
Exodus 19:4
 (4) Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you
on eagles' wings, and brought you unto myself.

Isaiah 40:31
 (31) but they that wait for Jehovah shall renew their strength; they
shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary;
they shall walk, and not faint.

Revelation 12:14
 (14) And there were given to the woman the two wings of the great
eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness unto her place, where she
is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the
serpent.

Note:
 Could there be a connection between the mentioned eagles?
The Rapture?
 Marriage between God & Israel:
Exodus 19:5
 (5) Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my
covenant, then ye shall be mine own possession from among all
peoples: for all the earth is mine:

Exodus 19:9
 (9) And Jehovah said unto Moses, Lo, I come unto thee in a thick
cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with thee, and may also
believe thee for ever. And Moses told the words of the people unto
Jehovah.

Revelation 1:7
 (7) Behold, he cometh with the clouds; and every eye shall see him,
and they that pierced him; and all the tribes of the earth shall mourn
over him. Even so, Amen.

Note:
 Did you see the two instances where the cloud is involved?
 Midrash?

The Rapture?
 Exodus 19:10
 (10) And Jehovah said unto Moses, Go unto the people, and sanctify
them to-day and to-morrow, and let them wash their garments,

 John 17:17
 (17) Sanctify them in the truth: thy word is truth.

 Genesis 49:11
 (11) Binding his foal unto the vine, And his ass's colt unto the choice
vine; He hath washed his garments in wine, And his vesture in the
blood of grapes:

 Revelation 7:14
 (14) And I say unto him, My lord, thou knowest. And he said to me,
These are they that come of the great tribulation, and they washed
their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

 Exodus 19:11
  (11) and be ready against the third day; for the third day Jehovah
will come down in the sight of all the people upon mount Sinai.

Note:
 We know that the Antichrist is revealed 3.5 years into the 7 year Tribulation
period
 We know that we will see the Antichrist, so does the above verse make sense
then?
 Sight of all people?

The Rapture?
Revelation 1:7
 (7) Behold, he cometh with the clouds; and every eye shall see him,
and they that pierced him; and all the tribes of the earth shall mourn
over him. Even so, Amen.

AMAZING!!!

The Rapture?
Exodus 19:12
 (12) And thou shalt set bounds unto the people round about, saying,
Take heed to yourselves, that ye go not up into the mount, or touch the
border of it: whosoever toucheth the mount shall be surely put to
death:

Note:
 There are boundaries which we can not pass. We are only allowed so much.
 Remember as long as we do not have the immortal bodies, we can not see
God.

The Rapture?
Exodus 19:13
 (13) no hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned, or shot
through; whether it be beast or man, he shall not live: when the
trumpet soundeth long, they shall come up to the mount.

1 Corinthians 15:52
  (52) in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the
trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and
we shall be changed.

Note:
 WoW! Do you see the connection?
 Only when the trumpet sounded were the people allowed to go to the mount!
 Just as we will only be Raptured at the Last trump.

The Rapture?
Exodus 19:16
 (16) And it came to pass on the third day, when it was morning, that
there were thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud upon the
mount, and the voice of a trumpet exceeding loud; and all the people
that were in the camp trembled.

Now look at this comparison:

Thunders & Lightnings:

 At the 7th Seal -> (Rev 8:5) And the angel taketh the censer; and he
filled it with the fire of the altar, and cast it upon the earth: and there
followed thunders, and voices, and lightnings, and an earthquake.

Cloud:
 (Rev 1:7) Behold, he cometh with the clouds; and every eye shall see
him, and they that pierced him; and all the tribes of the earth shall
mourn over him. Even so, Amen.

Trumpet:
 (1Co 15:52) in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump:
for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised
incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

Trembled:
 At the 6th Seal -> (Rev 6:16) and they say to the mountains and to the
rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the
throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:

The Rapture?
Exodus 19:17
  (17) And Moses brought forth the people out of the camp to meet
God; and they stood at the nether part of the mount.

Note:
 Ok, now this sounds quite amazing to me!
 If Moses is a midrash of Jesus then Jesus would then take us to meet God after
the Rapture?

The Rapture?
Exodus 19:18
 (18) And mount Sinai, the whole of it, smoked, because Jehovah
descended upon it in fire; and the smoke thereof ascended as the
smoke of a furnace, and the whole mount quaked greatly.

Revelation 6:12
 (12) And I saw when he opened the sixth seal, and there was a great
earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the
whole moon became as blood;

Note:
 Can you see the comparison between Mt Sinai and The Rapture?

The Rapture?
Exodus 19:19
 (19) And when the voice of the trumpet waxed louder and louder,
Moses spake, and God answered him by a voice.

Note:
 After this Moses went up into the mount, alone, where God gave Moses the 10
Commandments.
The Rapture?
Heb 12:25-27
 (25) See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not
when they refused him that warned them on earth, much more shall not
we escape who turn away from him that warneth from heaven:
 (26) whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised,
saying, Yet once more will I make to tremble not the earth only,
but also the heaven.
 (27) And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those
things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, that those
things which are not shaken may remain.

Note:
There is only one time when God's voice shook the earth and that was on Mt Sinai:

Exo 19:17-19
 (17) And Moses brought forth the people out of the camp to meet God;
and they stood at the nether part of the mount.
 (18) And mount Sinai, the whole of it, smoked, because Jehovah
descended upon it in fire; and the smoke thereof ascended as the
smoke of a furnace, and the whole mount quaked greatly.
 (19) And when the voice of the trumpet waxed louder and louder,
Moses spake, and God answered him by a voice.

But, the promise says that God will not

ONLY shake the earth but ALSO:

Hebrews 12:26
 (26) whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised,
saying, Yet once more will I make to tremble not the earth only, but
also the heaven.

Only once more? Now let us see if this will compare with The Rapture, which occurs
at/after the 6th Seal.

Revelation 6:13-14
  (13) and the stars of the heaven fell unto the earth, as a fig tree
casteth her unripe figs when she is shaken of a great wind.
 (14) And the heaven was removed as a scroll when it is rolled up; and
every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
