The verbiage Jesus used saying “of that day and hour no one knows” He was speaking to the disciples in Galilean wedding language. He is speaking to the fact that He will return for His bride (His true followers) and receive them to Himself. In Galilean weddings no one knew the day or hour the Father would tell his son it was time. There is a documentary called Before the Wrath that explains this in detail. Even the “flying away” of the bride to the grooms fathers house!! This is the language Jesus used so the disciples would understand what He was referring to!

I pray that this is the year the Father God sends His son Jesus to come and get His bride!! Thank you Jimmy that you love the church (true followers) and the Lord so much that you take the time to do these conferences and the teachings. See you in heaven my brother in Christ!!!

I too saw the movie before the wrath. Daystar just showed it every Saturday in the month of August. It was amazing how it it fits into the wedding language.

In that movie, they are applying all of it to the Second Coming, not The Rapture, so just keep that in mind as you watch.

Oh Pastor Jimmy.... tears of joy reading this beautiful, encouraging & comforting post today. Thanks for making it shareable....this is an important one to post if you have social media. It was an honor to be at the Tipping Point conference and one of the best I've ever attended (although I'll be at your XO event 23-24th) I really don't have the words to describe this weekend and what an impact it made in my life, personally. Being there with like-minded like-hearted people was a dream come true. Thank you to Billy Crone, Rabbi Cahn, Mark H, Pastor Young, Greg Laurie and our beloved Jimmy.... everyone was on FIYA🔥 Thank you to the incredible XO & End Times staff and Fellowship Church. It was truly one of a kind event. I don't know about you, but we plan on celebrating Rosh Hashanah as a family kick-off on Sept 25th baking challah bread and praying together for the Lord to Return. May we stay hopeful, expectant, and keep looking up! BTW Love Jimmy's new book coming out titled Look Up! If we don't read it here on earth-- I can't wait to go to the New Earth Library, right! Love y'all and praying for my TP family. 💛 Can you imagine having communion together very very soon at the wedding table— https://youtu.be/WWIopTjcYbc

Hey Mike28 our family will be sharing Rosh Hashanah together and with our dear friends in MO. Every year we set up a Zoom and have communion together. God always gives us a powerful prophetic word. What I love most there are no set rules for Gentiles.... we cook a delicious meal and bake challah bread. This year we'll share a loaf with our neighbors who are Jewish. Here's a great site that gives a ton of info and easy recipes. https://www.myjewishlearning.com/category/celebrate/rosh-hashanah/

Thank you Pastor Evans for another wonderful post. For the last two years I haven’t been able to shake this feeling of Jesus Christ soon return. This morning as I left for work, I always look to the heavens and ask Him….Is today the day??? I’ve been struggling with some serious health issues and the thought entered my mind that I wasn’t going to live long enough to see the Rapture. ( I know whether or not I live or die, I will be raptured. I would just love to go home (Raptured) in my lifetime:)

As I was meditating, I always stop at the local convenient store to get my morning latte’. I typed in my order and my order number on my receipt was 777. At has NEVER happened to me before.

I left that store flying high knowing Satan holds nothing on me and I’m going home real soon. Hold fast my friends to the hope of our calling. Our Papa is coming to rescue us!!! I’m praying for you all ❣️❣️❣️

Love you and love this story Esther! And the number “7” was even apparent in your caramel chews earlier in the summer, right? Something that has encouraged me is the quote that when we see Christmas lights, trees, decorations, etc., we know that Thanksgiving is even sooner. There is a commercial running now about Christmas! I don’t recall commercials running this early in the past. This may be a little nod from our Father :) Praying for your health, and for your family, dear Esther ❤️

My dear Blondie… you are correct regarding the Carmel Cream. The oddest things have been happening around me and I’m in total awe. A few weeks ago my husband and I were on the patio and John told me to look up. There was a beautiful rainbow not far from where we were sitting. The odd thing was we had no rain and it hadn’t rained for days. In my heart, I rejoiced. It gave me the chance to witness for Christ.

I so love our precious Lord💖💖💖

Dear Ellen, they were blinded in part, for those of us who are Gentiles. Until the fulness of the Gentiles is in,( which I believe the fulness is in), then the faith will go back to God's chosen people(who are beloved for the father's sakes). So thankful you are in the fold Ellen.

Expand full comment

Ellen, thank you for sharing this. It made me think about how in ONE day, when Jesus returns the second time.... all tribulation surviving Jews will believe in their Messiah! This is one of my all time favorite past Jimmy posts - https://endtimes.substack.com/p/the-final-redemption-of-the-jews "According to this text, two-thirds of the Jewish people will die during the final battle over Israel. Only a third of them will be saved. The surviving Jews who are alive at the Second Coming will see Jesus coming on the clouds and experience a divine revelation that He is their Messiah. When they realize who He is, they will begin to mourn over what they did to reject Him and how they put Him to death.

They will declare, “The Lord is my God.” God will declare, “This is my people.” The entire nation will be saved in one day. This is the redemption of the Jews."

Expand full comment

I'm amazed that they don't become believers because of the rapture. To build a temple and worship with the Old Testament ways makes me scratch my head. I wonder if the two thirds includes Jewish people who become believers through the two witnesses and the 144,000 Jewish people ordained by God during the tribulation. Isn't many of them supposed to take refuge in Petra?

Expand full comment

Maggie I think the “antichrist” will be soooo convincing that’s exactly who they will think he is, but it’s all a lie. It’s heartbreaking. If a Jew accepts Jesus as their Savior during the tribulation and martyred they will go immediately to heaven. Those that stay alive and make it to the end when they see Jesus return they will believe. 💛

Do you know what happens to our house pets if all the inhabitants get raptured? It would seem that God would not leave the innocent behind to starve to death inside a locked up house. I believe Our God is greater than that. He made all the creatures as a comfort to man. We know there are animals In Heaven. What do you think?

In His Word He says, 'If it matters to you then it matters to Me." He cares for our pets because we care about them. I am believing in Christ to provide for them, or maybe, simply allow them to lie down and sleep----eternally.

Paula, This tugs at every heart of every pet owner. We have a precious 6 month old golden retriever named Maverick, aussie doodle Lavi, Nala cat, 2 guinea pigs, and a bearded dragon. We LOVE our pets. I have bought extra pet food, but this will all be out of our control. This much I know is true.... God tells us in His word that he will RENEW ALL THINGS. And all things means all things.... including our critters. Jimmy read this question outloud on the Q & A panel and emphatically shared that he believes our pets will be in heaven. The timing will be a God mystery, but we can't be afraid for our pets, be prepared for his return.

I believe the pets will go with us! If the lion and the lamb are in heaven and if Jesus will come on a white horse, why wouldn’t all the other creatures be there too! God knows how much we love our pets. They are part of our household! God is so good all the time.

God made provision for the animals on the ark when He destroyed the earth with water and I feel that He will do the same again. I like to think that He will rapture their souls and their earthly bodies will be left behind. In heaven the lion lays with the lamb so I like to think all the animals will be changed just like we are! God is a good good Father and He doesn’t just love ... He IS love and the animals are innocent in all of this mess therefore I believe our Creator who is a just God will save them. God bless!

For the ark, he only allowed two of each kind for the sake of reproduction. Our pets are the hairy little kids that never grow up and move out of the house. I'm praying that will make a difference in his eyes.

I'm praying that they are raptured, but I left a letter for a nonbeliever that is reliable. He would take my pets to the vet with a letter.

Expand full comment

Hi, Maggie, is the letter for euthanasia? I have a vet who, given my physical condition if I pass suddenly, will come and euthanize my cats which I've already paid for. However, she's a Christian, and if pets aren't taken, it will be up to an unbeliever. Most recently I found out that no vet here in San Diego or shelter will euthanize a healthy animal, they won't put an animal up for adoption past the age of 7 (mine are 11+ plus one is feral), and to cut down on euth #s will turn them lose on the street after they've been relinquished. This concerns me greatly if they're not taken at the same time in the Rapture as me and at this point I don't know what to do about it as most people think we're nuts. Please check with your vet so you know for sure. Jesse

Hi Jessica. The vet has two doctors, which I know one is a Christian. I'm not sure about the 2nd one. They have a number of staff that I'm not sure are Christians. My Dorothy (pictured in my profile) will be 12 in January and has a number of health issues. I don't think they would hesitate putting her down. The two cats don't have front claws so they won't put them out in the wild. They would have to find homes for them or put them down. My friend has a kind heart and won't just release them out in the wild. Praying they come with us.

Expand full comment

The problem is if we go up, the only ones left behind are non Christian’s. That worry’s me. I give my worry to Jesus and ask Him to take away my anxiety and to please make a way for my pet so he doesn’t suffer and die.

Yes, I'm praying too. I hope all goes well with you. I have 2 vets I'm calling today to get info as a backup plan and have turned it over to God not to let them suffer, especially because they all were rescues to begin with.

Thanks Jessica. I wish the bible was clear on this topic. If our pets are left behind, I would think there will be an over abundance of pets. With a major food shortage, I would think they would want to put many of the pets down.

Expand full comment

Yes, I wish the same, but it's not clear. That's a comforting thought in a roundabout kind of way that you brought up. The trick would be to get them all to shelters in the first place. Down here during the entire month of Aug they have what they call, Clear the Shelters because of such an overload, especially kittens. Only 1 in 10 adult cats gets adopted. They have reduced fees, etc. so they don't have to put so many down. It's only common sense that if they don't get adopted, they have to go somewhere or they'd be piled up to the sky. Most people don't think about that. I worked at a shelter for 5 yrs so I know this to be true, although they don't tell people. They give the impression that every pet is adopted.

Jimmy, first, I was excited to give away the first book I bought from you, “Where are all the Missing People”. I’ve decided to buy several more for the same purpose. I really enjoyed reading it and see how it will be a great evangelical tool and guide for living in the Tribulation.

I share the anxiousness for the rapture. Several other online pastors believe as you do. It’s imminent but no one knows the day but God himself, the father of the bridegroom, Jesus Christ.

With that said, I find myself going between being ready, excited and don’t get my hopes up based on what I’m hearing. Just keep watching and stay focused on spreading the gospel. Truthfully, I see the real possibility of being disappointed if Sept and Oct pass, and we are still here. Not to mention several more years.

What advice can you share for all of us who are very excited right now, and the other reality, It could be several more years before God brings us home? His timing is perfect whether we understand or not on this side of Heaven.

May God continue to bless your ministry. I also referred a couple having trouble to your XO website. Praying they will reach out!

Expand full comment

Art, I’m feeling the same. I could also use some advice on what’s next if our Lord Jesus doesn’t deliver His people soon. I’m not sure whether or not being anxious about if we are near the event of the rapture is what our Heavenly Father would want. I believe that He would want us to live according to his Word. With saying that, I believe that we should pray and ask our Lord Jesus to help us with releasing the anxiousness that is causing us to have so many questions about when

our day of deliverance is. This leads me to seek the answers to my questions through prayer and reading biblical scripture repeatedly.

Hey Wendy, thanks for your comment. I share your thoughts of taking our feelings straight to Jesus, and reading His word. We know we are to stay “ready”, keep looking up and be about the Father’s business. I guess part of me is being selfish to want our Rapture ASAP. I hate all the evil I’m seeing. All the deception. Persecution of the church and believers. On the other hand, what if I could help even just a few more people come to know the Lord and not be left behind??? Would the wait be worth it? Would persevering thru these difficult times help bring more lost people to Jesus? Obviously YES! I can’t wait to meet Jesus! Be in the presence of our Heavenly Father!! Have a glorified body and reunite with my family already in Heaven. Meet Saints like you. I just have to remember, it’s not about me. I will battle this sinful nature until the day we go home.

Expand full comment

Hi Art,

Understandable reply.

We also to have to remember that God knows everything. He doesn’t make any mistakes. His plans for all things will be revealed one day to us all and I believe that we will see that everything happens to serves His righteous purpose.

Our God is a loving God. I say this because whether it’s seeming like it’s taking forever for the gathering of deliverance of His people, or it seems to us that are struggling with spiritual warfare on a daily basis couldn’t be more difficult or to some of us who are feeling overwhelmed with the growing of apostasy throughout the world; it is all written to happen during the end times. I completely understand the anticipation of us all who are waiting upon our release from this chaotic evil, including myself.

I’ve also given thought to how I don’t think that God would want us to feel as frustrated as we are all feeling about everything that’s happening.

I believe that we all need to find whatever it takes through persistent prayer to find a solution that will comfort our hearts from our daily worries that causes extreme anxiety.

Anxiety can lead to a worsening of our ability to focus on what is most important which is remaining steadfast on our Heavenly Father’s promise to us that He is the Way, the Truth and the Life.

Well said Wendy!! Thanks for sharing that. What an amazing time lies ahead with the blessed hope of the coming of the Lord. Simply beyond my imagination no matter how much I read about the rapture and Heaven. There’s a great Christian singer who sang a beautiful song called, “Can you Imagine?”. Can’t remember her name at this moment, but I so related to the words of this song. You probably know it too….

Expand full comment

Hi Art,

I’ve wanted to give you an update about what I have discovered. However I’m not sure if it’s the song that you were referring to.

I’ve listened to two different female artists singing ‘I Can Only Imagine’. First was Amy Grant and the second was Wynonna Judd. I’m not sure if either of them are who you are referring to. God has given many artists the talent of having an exceptional voice to sing. I love music. To me music is a reflection of how to express our feelings out loud without making ourselves who are not gifted with the talent of a voice for singing sound out of tune. When I was attending high school I had chosen chorus as an alternative. My grade scores remained decently high throughout my course. With that being said, I’m not famous. Lol. As long as God finds me uniquely talented in His eyes, that is all that matters to me.

Expand full comment

Wendy, I first heard this song sung by Mercy Me. One of my other favorites at this time of my life was Jaci Velasquez, On My knees. Both songs really spoke to my heart. I too wanted to be a singer. I had the passion and desire for music. Even played guitar for worship music at church and small group Bible studies. If, If only God had blessed my vocal chords…lol. But, wow, could I sing along in the car by myself. Maybe in our new glorious eternal bodies, I will finally be able to sing to the Lord and be in tune??? Praise God for all the wonderful, talented Christian artists. Have you ever heard the acapella group Pentatonix? I love their song, Mary, Did You know? Several other great artist also sang this song. I still listen to it frequently. Mark Lowry and Danny Gokey also sing amazing versions of this song. I love Danny’s song, “Good God Almighty”. Okay, I will shut up now. I’ve been on Apple Music looking up some of my all time favorites. Listening to “We all Need Jesus” as I write this. Maybe that’s one of my ways to stay ready and patient for the Rapture…. Music?

Hi Art,

God Bless your humble heart.

I will see you on the day and hour of which we know not.

I have a favorite song that I often listen to titled ‘In Jesus Name’ by artist Katy Nicole.

I’m also familiar with many songs from Lauren Daigle and the duo King & Country.

Along with many other talented Christian artists from pop, contemporary and country. The first song that came to mind that has a similar title as you’ve mentioned is ‘I Can Only Imagine’ from artist Bart Millard. But I don’t think that it‘s the song that you are referring to. I’ll continue to search.

Hi Pastor Jimmy, I have a question that I don’t hear much end time preachers talk about much maybe because it’s taboo?

Jesus said that there at the end, there will be those who will come claiming to be the messiah, do not be deceived.

Earthquakes, pestilences, and wars can be easily observed. Can you share more about false teachers or doctrines that we should be aware of? I am worried some of my friends or even family might have been deceived into some of them.

Much appreciated and many thanks in advance!

Idk about claiming to be the messiah (except for false religions like Mormonism/ Islam). But I think there’s plenty of false doctrine and pastors claiming to preach the word, but are doing more harm than good. Think of the UMC allowing homosexual pastors, or the “Universalist” churches that claim all roads lead to heaven. This is why it’s so important to pray for the Holy Spirit to give us discernment to hear the truth and reject the lies!

Really enjoyed the conference... the livestream worked very well. My favorite part was Jonathan Cahn... liked the fired up preaching he ended up doing. You and all of your XO/TP team did an excellent job!

Hey, David, I laughed at your comment during the conference about Queen E's casket popping open and her flying out if the Rapture happened. And yes, it would have been awesome because it would have been seen around the entire world. Great witnessing tool!

My son Chase loved his part too! He asked why can’t we find a pastor that gets fired up like that every Sunday! He had everyone on their feet by the time he finished. Such a great day of teaching and encouragement for sure!

That kind of preaching is in short supply... sad to say! :)

Yes, I streamed the conference and enjoyed watching what I could. Jimmy, don’t be ashamed to admit that as we get closer to the date of the rapture, we just might be more sure of the day and the hour. Look what it says in Daniel 12 verse 4: “But you, Daniel, roll up and seal the words of the scroll until the time of the end. Many will go here and there to increase knowledge.” To increase knowledge tells me that as THAT day approaches, some of us, including you, are intensely watching and observing the signs of the end times. Yes, our knowledge of when Jesus returns in the rapture just might be more specific than you think! Blessings! I hope to see you in the clouds next week! 🙄🙄🙄😃😃😃

Hi Tim, I agree with you and my favorite “rapture verse” is ...............1 Thessalonians 5:4 ►

New International Version

But you, brothers and sisters, are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief.

And remember the Jewish bride slept in her wedding clothes because she did not know the day or hour, but she knew it was soon and had to be ready!

Jesus himself spoke to the disciples regarding the signs of the end, and He said when these things BEGIN to happen LOOK UP because your redemption is near.

Hallelujah, Praise to our King of Kings and Lord of Lords. He has not forgotten us and is coming to take us home. 😇🦋

Thanks Jennifer. I also like Revelation 3:3 where Jesus says "Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; hold it fast, and repent. But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you." What if you ARE awake? Hmm

The conference was wonderful!!! My husband and another couple streamed it from Winnsboro Texas! Thank you Dr Evens for clarifying your beliefs…and teachings so well! I love that you pull the scriptures together and point out the difference talking about the rapture vs the second coming!

One thing that stood out to me was Billy Crone reminding us that we will all be doing something when the trumpet sounds…what will He find me doing? I am ready to see Him…but my heart aches for loved ones that I’m not sure where they are. They have heard the truth, many accepted Christ, but the younger ones are being pulled apart…they are searching for “why” and “what” they believe. God open the eyes of our youth, younger adults…bring back the teachings of their youth…restore the joy of thy salvation!
