2024 Solar Eclipse: Coincidence or Final Warning?
Rapture Ready ^ | 1/27/24 | Jonathan Brentner

What’s likely to become the biggest travel event during 2024 in America? Some might think it would be the Super Bowl or another sporting event, such as the Indianapolis 500. However, according to the Washington Post, it will be the solar eclipse that will cross the U.S. on April 8, 2024.

This eclipse sparks added interest among prophecy watchers because of its relationship to another darkening of the sun that occurred on August 21, 2017. The two eclipses, seven years apart, will form an X on America intersecting at Little Egypt, a small town in southern Illinois.

Is this just a coincidence, or is it the Lord’s way of alerting America that judgment is on the way?

The Coincidence

The pattern of two solar eclipses forming an X over the U.S. also happened in the early 1800s. Remarkably, the intersection of this century’s solar eclipses will be about one hundred miles from where those of the nineteenth century crossed paths.

The first solar eclipse occurred on June 16, 1806, with the second completing the X on September 17, 1811. The intersection happened over the New Madrid fault area, which includes an area from Cairo in southern Illinois to nearby New Madrid, MO.

On December 16, 1811, just three months after the second solar eclipse, a series of devastating earthquakes struck along the New Madrid fault line. The following quote comes from the New Madrid, MO, website:

The New Madrid earthquakes were the biggest earthquakes in American history. They occurred in the central Mississippi Valley but were felt as far away as New York City, Boston, Montreal, and Washington D.C. President James Madison and his wife Dolly felt them in the White House. Church bells rang in Boston. From December 16, 1811, through March of 1812, there were over 2,000 earthquakes in the central Midwest and between 6,000-10,000 earthquakes in the Bootheel of Missouri, where New Madrid is located near the junction of the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers.

In the known history of the world, no other earthquakes have lasted so long or produced so much evidence of damage as the New Madrid earthquakes. Three of the earthquakes are on the list of America’s top earthquakes: the first one on December 16, 1811, a magnitude of 8.1 on the Richter scale; the second on January 23, 1812, at 7.8; and the third on February 7, 1812, at as much as 8.8 magnitude.

Could the upcoming completion of an X across the U.S. midsection by the April 8, 2024, eclipse point to another catastrophe in the months afterward?

Is this just an uncanny coincidence or something more ominous?

Final Warning?

I believe this year’s solar eclipse, which will complete an X over the U.S., signifies the nearness of God’s judgment. I say this for a couple of reasons.

First, we live during a time of unprecedented moral decay in the U.S. that has corrupted the majority of politicians in our government. Despite the reversal of Roe versus Wade, the shedding of innocent blood continues and now exceeds a total of sixty-two million babies murdered in the womb since 1973. Both sex trafficking and pedophilia continue unabated in the U.S., with the Biden administration unashamedly promoting the LGBTQ+ agenda both in America and all across the world.

The U.S. President is putting extreme pressure on Israel to give up its pursuit of the Hamas terrorists and agree to a two-state solution, which he says is the only path to peace. The Bible, however, tells us that the Lord will deal harshly with any nation that pursues such a policy that results in the dividing of His Land.

Second, we live in the shadow of the seven-year Tribulation when the entire earth will experience the fury of God’s wrath. Those who know and believe the words of biblical prophecy recognize the myriad of signs telling us that this time is ever so near. It’s certain that the Lord will bring much destruction to America during this time, but does the upcoming solar eclipse signify the nearness of this time? Is it God’s final warning to America? Only time will tell.

We know that the Lord’s wrath will fall on the U.S.; we just don’t know when. It could be this week, next month, this year, or later. We do know that at any moment, Jesus will come for His own, and sudden destruction will fall upon the unsuspecting world (1 Thessalonians 5:1-10).

If you have not yet put your trust in Jesus, please, please read my post, Jesus Is the Only Path to Eternal Life. In it, I explain how you can know that Jesus has forgiven all your sins and that you possess eternal life and with the sure hope of receiving an immortal and incorruptible body at Jesus’ appearing (1 Corinthians 15:48-54).

Please don’t delay; call upon Jesus while you may! Tomorrow may be too late to avoid the death and destruction that will sweep over the world.

The April 8, 2024, solar eclipse may not be the Lord’s final warning for an unsuspecting nation and world, but then again, it might be.

Cleveland will be under its path. The Emerald Necklace will be great spot for viewing. Be sure to stop by Cedar Point and the Museum of Art as well during your trip.

“The two eclipses, seven years apart, will form an X on America intersecting at Little Egypt, a small town in southern Illinois.”

According to NASA, the intersection will occur over Texas.

The eclipse last year and the one this year intersect over Kerrville TX. about an hour west of San Antonio.

I like to think of myself as a logical, science-based person.
I do not believe that pure emotion, hysteria, and wishful thinking is a firm foundation for a mind.

Even so, I am coming to believe this is, indeed, “it.”

Enough things seem to be coming together, as never before, and from many different directions...
...coming to a singularity. A great crunch.

It fills me with anticipatory joy, and also some dread.

i do think this is “It.”

I bless whoever invented the “A - B - C’s.” That simple idea provides a childlike Comfort, and Hope.

Indeed: Maranatha.

This solar eclipse has been predictable since the dawn of human civilization. Had there been no Roe v. Wade, abortions, pedophilia and other sexual perversion, had humanity behaved morally all these years, this eclipse and the one before it creating the big "X" would still happen. Its how the mechanics of the solar system work. Eclipses aren't new or changing or surprising. They are as regular and predictable as sunrises and sunsets, and this one has been on the calendar for all of human history.

A good summation of where we are.

There are too many coincidences now.
Technology and Israel back in the land are dead giveaways.

The mockers and scoffers will be the ones who get caught with their pants down when the next Supernatural event happens.

What a bad place to be in!

Fait accompli, the time for repentance is past, the judgment is now inevitable. August 21, 2024 will mark exactly 7 years between the last “Great American Eclipse” in 2017, the four months between April 8th and August (or so) in 2024 is time to gird our loins for what’s coming. YIKES!

Please disregard my post 9. I thought you were referring only to total eclipses.

All the signs and events in the sky have meaning, all the universe screams of God’s glory……however, our sorry state inhibits the vast majority from understanding the messages.

Try explaining to your dog the meaning of the sirens when a tornado is near.

The 2017 eclipse wasn’t total anywhere in Texas. The NASA map you probably saw shows the paths of the annular eclipse of last October and the total eclipse of this April. Had me confused also, being kind of an apples-and-oranges thing IMO.

Little Egypt, a small town in southern Illinois

"Little Egypt" is a name for southern Illinois, generally the part south of U.S. Highway 50. There isn't any one town named Little Egypt.

The point where it makes the X is in Illinois, called Little Egypt. The Madrid fault line also goes through there. Coincidence? I don’t know.
