10 Signs Revealing that the Messiah’s Arrival is Imminent
BIN ^ | 4/17/2020 | Dr. Rivkah Lambert Adler

More than 1500 years ago, rabbis discussed many signs that would precede the coming of the Messiah and the inauguration of the messianic era. Last week, Jewish activist and founder of the Israel Dog Unit Yekutiel Ben Yaakov (Mike Guzofsky) delivered a talk in which he connected many of these ancient signs to current events.

1 Young will shame the old 2 The passing of Biblical scholars 3 Costly sustenance 4 Sudden Poverty 5 No government in Jerusalem 6 The face of a dog 7 Waves of trouble 8 Haste 9 Forgetting the Bible 10 When God exacts revenge

Daniel 9:25-27 25 “Know and understand this: From the time the word goes out to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One, the ruler, comes, there will be seven ‘sevens,’ and sixty-two ‘sevens.’ It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench, but in times of trouble. 26 After the sixty-two ‘sevens,’ the Anointed One will be put to death and will have nothing. The people of the ruler who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end will come like a flood: War will continue until the end, and desolations have been decreed. 27 He will confirm a covenant with many for one ‘seven.’ In the middle of the ‘seven’ he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And at the temple he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed is poured out on him.

Thanx for the post. I have been a believer of Revelations for quite a while. Even more now with ‘subtle’ signs of modern day catastrophes.

I saw Israel Dog Unit when they opened for Granular Scarves at the Fillmore West in 1971.

I’m pretty certain we’re in for more surprises and catastrophes soon enough.

The world is in the apex of the current system and the more disasters that happen, the more governments will fall (and be replaced).

Interesting times.

... the Anointed One will be put to death...

Yes, all of these things happened, almost 2,000 years ago.

The Anointed One rose from the Dead, also.

Most Jews don't believe this, but someday all of Israel will believe.

Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.

Now concerning that day and hour no one knows—neither the angels of heaven nor the Son—except the Father alone.

Matthew 24:35-36

They’re a bit late. He came a little more than 2000 years ago. I’m not sure having a bunch of rabbis telling me the Messiah’s arrival is imminent is sound advice. OTOH, I think Christ’s second coming is approaching fast. While other people thought as much, including Paul, these are very good points.

He will come like a thief in the night.

“Last week, Jewish activist...”

I’m reminded of the recent “Get Smart” image posted recently on FR. “Missed it by this much!”

But to be fair, Jews, muslims, Christians - will ALL see the Messiah’s arrival some day.

I can point to things that fit that criteria from a thousand years ago and Jesus didn’t show up back then.

Matthew 24:36 - “But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.”

I was reading some site and they made some sense (I think).

Jesus did all sorts of miracles or told parable on the various Jewish festivals. The only thing that He hadn’t asn’t included was the Feast of Trumpets.

IIRC it is in the fall. It is a harvest feast iirc. (Recall the numerous parabeles of grain, harvest, sowing, etc.)

The festival begins after some phase of the moon in the fall. And it begins at sunrise - which is determined by two witnesses showing up at the temple to confirm it. Cloud cover, etc. will make that time variable - and it needs to be confirmed by a second person.

So the exact time that the festival starts is not known by anybody. Excep GOD).

My gramps told me there was the same Rapture hysteria going on in the 1970’s like around 1975 or so with the One Way movement.

This is old history; after the Babylonian exile and the restoration of Jerusalem and the Temple, the Jews knew that the time of the Messiah was drawing near. (Hence, the question the scholars put to the Nazarean was not, "Who do you think you are?", but, "Are you the Messiah?")

The prophecy of Daniel took place 2,000 years ago; the Temple was destroyed in the sack of Jerusalem by Titus and the sacrifice ended.

There is no temple, no sacerdotal priesthood, and no more prophets; the Jewish people have been waiting around on a platform for a train that came and went 2,000 years ago.

They neglected the most important sign...All these signs are dependent upon one main sign, Israel being a place...With a Jewish government...
