Rosh Hashanah FEAST OF TRUMPETS SEPT 25 th To SEPT 26th - The trumpets in the scriptures are sounded to bring God’s people up to meet Him, or to assemble for a wedding. - The trumpets in the scriptures are sounded for another reason, and that’s to assemble for war. WHAT THIS MEANS TO ME The Rapture of the Church (Leviticus 23:23-25) On the first day of the month Tishri on the Jewish ceremonial calendar, the feast of trumpets was held; trumpets were blown to gather together God’s people for a holy convocation, relocation, or confrontation. The feast of Trumpets is a picture of a holy convocation at the sound of a trumpet for the relocation we call the rapture of the Church (I Thessalonians 4:13-18 and I Corinthians 15:52). A second trumpet is for a holy convocation of Israel’s confrontation for the last days. Numbers 10:1-7 1 The LORD said to Moses: 2 Make two trumpets of hammered silver (redemption) , and use them for calling the community together and for having the camps set out. 3 When both are sounded, the whole community is to assemble before you at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. 4 If only one is sounded, the leaders--the heads of the clans of Israel--are to assemble before you. 5 When a trumpet blast is sounded, the tribes camping on the east are to set out. 6 At the sounding of a second blast, the camps on the south are to set out. The blast will be the signal for setting out. 7 To gather the assembly, blow the trumpets, but not with the same signal. THE LAST TRUMPET FOR US 1 Corinthians 15:51-52 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead in Christ shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. The last trumpet is not the 7th trump in Revelation 10:7 at the middle of the tribulation but the trump of Revelation 4:1 at the beginning of the tribulation. THE FIRST TRUMPET FOR ISRAEL Exodus 19:16-17 On the morning of the third day there was thunder and lightning, with a thick cloud over the mountain, and a very loud trumpet blast. Everyone in the camp trembled. Then Moses led the people out of the camp to meet with God, and they stood at the foot of the mountain. The first trumpet the morning of the third day (Hosea 6:2) is for Israel to meet the Lord, which could possibly be the same as the first day of the seventh month. THE TRUMPET OF GOD FOR US 1Thessalonians 4:16-17 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. This is the voice of the archangel with the trumpet call of God for us at the rapture. THE TRUMPET OF ANGELS FOR ISRAEL Matthew 24:20-22,31 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elects sake those days shall be shortened. 31-And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. This is the last trumpet; it’s of angels for Israel (Gods elect) at the end of the tribulation. Extracted from Pastor JD Farag Bible Study Leviticus 23:23-25
