Order of events on the Feast of Trumpets (Yom Teruah):

  1. Immediately after the great tribulation spoken about in Matthew 24: 21 & 22 the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken, and then the sign of the Son of man will appear in the sky, and then the tribes of the earth will mourn and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory. Matthew 24: 29 & 30.

  2. Yahshua returns on Yom Teruah and goes straightway to Jerusalem and save the tents of Judah first (Zechariah 12: 7). He finds our Jewish Brothers in synagogue, men sitting separate from their wives.  Zechariah 12: 10 - 14. They see His hands and like Thomas His disciple did after His resurrection accept Him as their Master and Elohim (John 19: 26 – 28).At that time there will be great mourning in Jerusalem, when Yahshua grants the Jews repentance and accept them into His fold, thus saving all Israel.

  3. The dead in Messiah (those who died believing and doing what Yahshua taught) are resurrected and joins living Nazarene believers, as we read from 1st Corinthians 15:  51 – 52. This will happen as the Seventh Trumpet sounds.

  4. At the same time Yahshua will send forth His angels with a Great Trumpet (the same seventh trumpet) and they will gather His elect (us) from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other ( Matthew 24: 31). This is not the Rapture taught by Christianity – no these elect will simply disappear from the area where they normally reside and re-appear at the Mount of Olives in Israel, similar to what happened to Philip after he immersed the eunuch in Acts 8: 34 – 40. We see in verse 39 after Philip immersed the man, the Spirit of YHVH snatched him away, and he was seen no more, but found himself in Azotus (between Gaza and Azdod), and he kept preaching the gospel of the coming kingdom of Elohim to all cities.

  5. Next Yahshua and the true believers wages war with the Beast in Revelation 17: 13 & 14. We see that the true believers are those whom YHVH has called out of the world and its false religions, who were chosen by Yahshua (immersed in His saving name) but also who remained faithful (keeping Torah according to Yahshua’s stricter way, i.e. better than the scribes and the Pharisees, as He said in Matthew 5: 20).

  6. At this point the Heavens open and Yahshua sitting on a white horse together with his armies clothed in fine linen come to judge the world in righteousness and to wage war as we read from Revelation 19: 11 – 18.At that time Yahshua will destroy the nations who will gather around Jerusalem, ready to annihilate the Jewish nation in the middle-east, known as Israel. We read fittingly from Isaiah 63: 1, ‘Who is this who comes from Edom, with garments of glowing colors from Bozrah, this One who is majestic in His apparel, marching in the greatness of His strength? It is I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save.’  Verses 2 – 3 of Isaiah 63 links up with what we read in verse 15 of Revelation 19, in this way: ‘Why is Your apparel red, and Your garments like the one who treads in the wine press? (3) I have trodden the wine trough alone, and from the peoples there was no man with Me.I also trod them in My anger, and trampled them in My wrath; and their lifeblood is sprinkled on My garments, and I stained all My raiment.’ Why will Yahshua come from Bozrah?  Will He perhaps come through the ancient city of Edom in Southern Jordan (Petra) to bring with Him the 144, 000 (made up of 12, 000 of each of the 12 tribes), who were taken to be there out of harm’s way, during the tribulation, as may be read from Revelation 12: 13 - 16? This is clearly the day of vengeance spoken about in verse 4 of Isaiah 63, in this way: ‘For the day of vengeance was in My heart, and My year of redemption has come.’ The Messiah’s reckoning with his enemies will coincide with the redemption of His people.

  7. This brings us to Zechariah 14 where we read about Yahshua and His elect arriving at the Mount of Olives. Let’s read about it from Zechariah 14: 1 – 9. At this point the question on our lips is: who is the one returning? We see from verse 1 of Zechariah 14 that it is in fact YHVH who is returning. That is correct Yahshua is YHVH in the flesh, but we read further from verse 9, ‘And YHVH will be king over all the earth; in that day YHVH will be the only one and His name the only one.’

  8. We close by reading from John 3. Yes this is where Christianity believes the so-called gospel is given in the Scriptures in verse 16. However, they never read the concluding verse of John 3, namely verse 36, as follows: “He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of Elohim abides on him.” Yes, if we who are called by YHVH to come out of the world are immersed in Yahshua’s saving name, obeys Him and keep His commandments (i.e. Torah) better than the Pharisees do, as He explained in Matthew 5: 21 – 48, and emphasizing in verse 48, saying: “Therefore you are to be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.”
