Attention: although we advocate for freedom of conscience in matters of receiving the experimental COVID-19 vaccine, we do NOT condone violent protests or violence of any kind. We address this topic in the video entitled God’s Instruction for Protesters Today. We advise being peaceful, maintaining a low profile, and complying with the general health rules that are in effect in your area (such as wearing a mask, washing hands, and maintaining prescribed distances) as long as they do not go against God’s laws, while avoiding situations that would require one to get vaccinated. “Be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves” (from Matthew 10:16).

As we were approaching the tenth anniversary of our movement’s beginnings (as recorded in the Final Warning series), the Lord began to teach us many things. When it became obvious that the end was not coming according to The Itinerary, we had to study further to understand the Lord’s intention. This study took place during the 24 hours from sunset on May 3 to sunset on May 4. While studying with the church, one brother recognized a boat in the heavenly scenes—a symbol which had occurred in past dreams:

The sun on the ecliptic (yellow) draws the deck of the ship, while the trajectory of comet PanSTARRS (white) draws the form of the ship’s hull.

This opened new insights into the way that the story of Noah should fulfill in the antitype. We immediately recognized that from April 27, 2022, when the “ark door” had been shut, there were exactly 7 + 7 + 4 = 18 days until the sun would reach the “keel” of the boat on May 15, as the brother pictured it above. This was the fulfillment of Ernie Knoll’s only dream that openly acknowledged itself to be a time-setting dream.

It always pains us to refer to this Balaam who turned aside for filthy lucre and turned the people of God away from the very truth that his own dreams confirm, but sometimes it is just too clear how his dreams fulfill to ignore them; we want you to see how powerful God is. The version of this dream that he published, entitled “Justice and Mercy”, was heavily edited—even changing the number of days—and the clarity of the fulfillment got lost in the process. But the original unedited version has a crystal-clear meaning:

The Herald says as Noah and his family waited 7 days before He destroyed everything from the face of the Earth likewise did He in His promise to Martha. As Noah and his family waited 7 days, He waited 7 days, then He waited 7 more days. Then He waited 4 more days.

In our time, we also have to wait in the shut ark, but instead of seven days, it is seven, then another seven, then another four. After that many days, then the destruction of the world by a rain of fire will come, as the rain came upon the antediluvian world after just seven days. This is what we see fulfilling to a tee in the picture above! Imagine… we did not even know in advance that April 27 would turn out to be the close of probation and thus the closing of the ark door—but our experience was divinely led.

It is amazing to see that in this “ark,” standing perfectly on the “main deck” are three creatures: the ram (Aries) and the two fish (Pisces). In the lower deck is the head of Cetus, bound by the two fish. This is all amazingly meaningful: Aries represents Jesus (the Lamb) who is the Captain of the church ship, and on board are His two army hosts: the living 144,000 (the upright fish) and the dead in Christ (the reclining fish). These two churches are shown holding the devil in bondage “in the lower parts of the earth” while they are on the main deck of the ark basking in the broad light of Christ.

Along with the original idea of this boat came the thought that it could be the boat of Mark 6:45-48, in which the disciples were rowing hard in the fourth watch of the night when Jesus came to them:

And he saw them toiling in rowing; for the wind was contrary unto them: and about the fourth watch of the night he cometh unto them, walking upon the sea, and would have passed by them. (Mark 6:48)

It is indeed correct that Jesus is now coming in the fourth watch of the night, which began as of May 6, 2022 according to the Horologium clock, as explained in The Father has Declared the Time—our last formal article that ushered in the Final Observations. However, the boat in the verse above does not match the heavenly symbolism in the sense that Jesus was not on board in the beginning of that story. The Bible must describe this ship elsewhere—and where else than in the book of Revelation?

We saw in the previous post how the keel of the boat was “drawn” by comet PanSTARRS in fulfillment of the seventh trumpet, meaning that the time spanned by this ark with the door shut is the time of the blowing of the seventh trumpet. This tells us where in the book of Revelation we need to look for the ark: in any verse or chapter that deals with the seventh trumpet.

The first of two such verses is found in chapter 10, in the context of the oath of the Father, which the Hunga Tonga eruption and all the Final Observations represent:

But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets. (Revelation 10:7)

What import these words now have! If the seventh trumpet began to sound on May 4, 2022, as detailed in Blowing the Trumpet, and on that very day from sunset May 3 to sunset May 4 the date of the rapture was worked out by God’s people (represented by Venus who blows the trumpet), then the mystery of God is now finished with this multi-part study!!! The time of our departure has been found! Glory, hallelujah!!! And we will review those details later in the course of this article.

The completing of the boat is shown in the latter chapters of Ezekiel in another way. Remember, the ideal temple of Ezekiel represents the heavenly Canaan, and something very specific was said about the way the Prince, or Bridegroom, would come and go:

Thus saith the Lord God; The gate of the inner court that looketh toward the east shall be shut the six working days; but on the sabbath it shall be opened, and in the day of the new moon it shall be opened. And the prince shall enter by the way of the porch of that gate without, and shall stand by the post of the gate, and the priests shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings, and he shall worship at the threshold of the gate: then he shall go forth; but the gate shall not be shut until the evening. (Ezekiel 46:1-2)

As the constellation of Taurus represents the inner court, it is easy to see that the sun enters Taurus by the porch of the east gate (the boundary of the constellation where the sun comes in from), while the east gate of the temple itself is the Golden Gate in Taurus (the line between the Pleiades and the center of the constellation).

The moment when the sun enters Taurus on May 14 is also the moment when the aleph is activated in the overall context of the signs from the eruption of Hunga Tonga to the present, as Brother Ray explained in his post. Coming back to the “boat” imagery, however, we see that when the sun is just about to reach the tip of the ship’s bow, and then the ship will be complete, ready to sail once the last signs and the resurrections have taken place.

As we are searching for the boat in the symbolism of Revelation, we now come to something very amazing—the second of the two verses that speaks about the seventh trumpet. It is part of the description of the trumpet itself, as found in chapter 11. This description begins as follows:

And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever. And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God, Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned. (Revelation 11:15-17)

When the trumpet sounds with the sun at the crossing point of PanSTARRS and the ecliptic on May 15, we read of great voices in heaven (the sun and moon) and a scene involving the 24 elders sitting on their thrones. This represents the events that transpired in recent days, as will be even further expounded in an upcoming article. Matters of power and authority in the kingdom of God were visible, corresponding to the completion of the letter lamed in the heavenly signs. The symbol of power is completed on May 15 when the sun stands at the point where PanSTARRS crossed back over the ecliptic, representing the returning Bridegroom holding both scepter and shepherd’s staff in hand.

And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth. (Revelation 11:18)

By May 15, the angry nations and the coming of God’s wrath and the millennial judgment is very near: just days—better counted in hours—remain till the millennium travel begins. And then the trumpet concludes with the following words:

And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail. (Revelation 11:19)

Is this not exactly what we have just seen in the book of Ezekiel? The temple of God (Taurus) was opened for the Prince. It is not closed, as would be the case if the sun were leaving Taurus—but opened. This indicates that now is the time for the Bridegroom to come, and not in June when the sun leaves Taurus, because that would be a closed door.

And now we see exactly how the ark of Noah is represented in the symbolism of the Revelation: it is the ark of His testament! It is the vessel in which the New Testament—signed with His blood—is kept! The same ship of the first picture indeed represents the ark of the covenant, covered with the mercy seat—the throne of God:

There on the left is Aries, even with a special marker, representing the sacrificial blood of the testament. (We will come back to that marker later.) Sitting together with the Lamb (Aries) on His Father’s throne are the redeemed, represented by the two fishes (Pisces), perfectly encompassed by the comet’s path. One represents the raptured saints who are alive today with twelve new covenant representatives, and the other represents those who died in faith, with their twelve representatives, together supplying the complete circle of 24 elders around the throne of God.

To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. (Revelation 3:21)

Closed inside the ark is the law of God, and upon the head of Satan rests the whole guilt for the breaking of the law of God by having introduced sin into the universe.

And Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their sins, putting them upon the head of the goat, and shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness: And the goat shall bear upon him all their iniquities unto a land not inhabited: and he shall let go the goat in the wilderness. (Leviticus 16:21-22)

The ark of the covenant represents the promise of God, the New Testament in the blood of Christ, to lead His people into the heavenly land of Canaan. It has different features than the ark of Noah. It does have a “hull” or compartment like Noah’s ark, but this box also has two poles, forming four handles. This explains why the two ephemeris lines extend beyond the beginning and end of the ark: they give the ark the four handles it needs to represent the ark of the covenant.

To carefully identify the first handle, all we have to do is notice how far the ephemeris of the sun goes along the ecliptic till the saints reach the city of God. Then the sun marks the end of the first handle:

Then all the redeemed will have been brought up to God.

How can we find the ends of the other handles? We have to use a little sense. C/2021 O3 PanSTARRS has by this time gone all the way up out of the picture, up the neck of the giraffe (constellation Camelopardalis) which has no biblical sense. Once the comet has left the Mazzaroth by exiting the constellation of Taurus, it has no further significance. The cloud left the temple; the shepherd’s staff does not reach beyond Taurus.

Thus, we have found the end of the handle on May 3, when the comet exited Taurus. This was the end of the daily rations from the sign of September 23, 2017, and that very evening began the great study that we are expounding in these pages, which feeds the people of God the rest of the way. This was the manna in the ark reserved for these very last days! And now we see the two handles on the left side are approximately the same length as one would expect.

Now we have two more handles to identify on the other side. On the line of the ecliptic, the sun marks the end of a pole when the comet first crossed the ecliptic. This was when Brother John raised his bo staff and looked up to heaven and saw the sign of the cross, the letter tav.

This draws a visually proportionate handle and once more underscores the importance of that discovery which gave us the ticket to heaven which through rigorous follow-up studies has enabled each one to obtain his or her boarding pass for departure in the rapture.

Finally, there is one more fourth handle that should be identified. As the picture stands above, the line coming from the water bucket of Aquarius is out of proportion. This handle should be similar in size to the other three.

We need to examine this region closely to identify what the Lord is signifying through this last handle on the ark of the covenant.

The fourth handle should be the same size as the others, so it should be indicated by the PanSTARRS comet’s position roughly above and slightly to the right of where the sun was on March 8. Are there any significant dates in February that would fit? We saw the war in Ukraine begin on February 24, but that is too far to the left and would make the handle too short. The beginning of the sign on January 15 makes the handle too long. What we need is a date that is just right, which would correspond to approximately where the number 11 marks where the comet was located on February 11. Only one event happened around that date that could qualify on par with the significance of the other handles as an event that God would be showing through this amazing and vast heavenly sign of the ark of His testament…

Does this screenshot look familiar? Published in three languages on February 10, 2022, was God’s last warning to the worldly church. It was His last call to board the ark of safety. This voice, uttered in the cracking thunderous explosion of the Hunga Tonga eruption whose shockwaves reverberated around the globe two times, announced the day and hour of Christ’s return.

We intentionally published on that date because of the prophetic dream called “Justice and Mercy” mentioned earlier, because in the original story, Martha was given her last warning on February 10—of 2010, the year that the Orion message began. Twelve years later—the number of the covenant—we had no idea that publishing on that date would also form one handle of the ark of that covenant. The Orion message was God’s covenant message to the remnant of the remnant of His people, and now that message is complete. (And we are not even finished sharing the light we have received from this ark sign!)

The sign of the ark of the covenant in heaven spans from Taurus to the voice of God from Hunga Tonga, the aleph and the tav, which—hidden in the Hebrew Bible as the signature of God—are so tightly connected to the covenant promise that through the death of Jesus on the cross, we would be able to live in heaven with Him.

Oh, the depth of this scene—can the mortal mind comprehend all that it means? Enshrined in this ark is the promise of God to those who have fulfilled their obligations under the covenant! That is, everyone who has accepted the blood of Jesus and whose sins have been blotted out—those who have honored God by overcoming their sinful tendencies through the power of His blood—are now to be given the reward that Jesus secured for them.

And as God spoke the day and the hour of Jesus’ coming and delivered the everlasting covenant to His people, He spoke one sentence, and then paused, while the words were rolling through the earth. The Israel of God stood with their eyes fixed upward, listening to the words as they came from the mouth of Jehovah, and rolled through the earth like peals of loudest thunder. It was awfully solemn. And at the end of every sentence the saints shouted, “Glory! Alleluia!” Their countenances were lighted up with the glory of God; and they shone with the glory, as did the face of Moses when he came down from Sinai. The wicked could not look on them for the glory. And when the never-ending blessing was pronounced on those who had honored God in keeping His Sabbath holy, there was a mighty shout of victory over the beast and over his image. {EW 34.1}

To keep the Sabbath holy also implies keeping sacred the gene of life, not polluting what God made with false and inferior codes that are the results of the machinations of man or demon.

And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened. (Matthew 24:22)

God will not allow Satan’s scheme to eradicate His children. Through the imagery of the ark of Noah, God is reminding us of what He has determined to do:

Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. (2 Peter 3:6-7)

In the days of Noah, the corruption had gotten so bad, like it is today, that the only solution was to destroy the world, and make it new—saving only the eight souls in the ark. Then, it was the ark of Noah; now it is the ark of truth, which is the ark that houses the covenant:

And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail. (Revelation 11:19)

When this ark is seen in the temple of heaven (and completed as of May 15, 2022), then shortly thereafter will be the great hail—the stones from heaven that will bring fire upon the wicked world.

Only those who are represented as being in this ark will be saved: the Christian fish who have the blood of the covenant on the doorposts of their heart when this second-month Passover blood moon passes over on May 16, and the world enters its final throes.

Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. (Matthew 5:6)

Soon those hungering souls will be filled at the great supper table of the Lord in heaven. They will partake of that meal on what would be perceived as “May 25, 2022” according to time as they feel it—as the fruits of His sacrifice, He will feed them at His table. The covenant to redeem mankind, signed in His blood, will have accomplished its purpose. Like He promised to bless Abraham with children as numerous as the stars, the redeemed of all the ages will fill heaven in praise to the Redeemer.

The redeemed of all times will partake of the fruit of the tree of life that was symbolized as the rod of Aaron that flourished and was kept in the ark until the tip of the Bridegroom’s handle would build the wood of the marriage supper table.

This is not even the depth of it yet—but do you see why the trumpet sounded the way it did? The sun coming to the end of the trumpet sign was significant, because that would complete the ark—which is both the ark of Noah and the ark of the covenant.

All of this carries incredible significance. Think about it: the ship is completely drawn in the heavens on May 15, as shown above, and is thus ready for the final checks before departure. About 20 hours later on May 16, the second-month Passover blood moon represents the blood on the doorposts of those who will sail—and the doom of those who did not get on board.

In our time zone—where this eclipse is also centered—it will take place at midnight (11 minutes past, to be exact). This is highly significant in light of the prophecy of Ellen G. White:

It was at midnight that God chose to deliver His people. As the wicked were mocking around them, suddenly the sun appeared, shining in his strength, and the moon stood still. The wicked looked upon the scene with amazement, while the saints beheld with solemn joy the tokens of their deliverance. Signs and wonders followed in quick succession. Everything seemed turned out of its natural course. The streams ceased to flow. Dark, heavy clouds came up and clashed against each other. But there was one clear place of settled glory, whence came the voice of God like many waters, shaking the heavens and the earth. There was a mighty earthquake. The graves were opened, and those who had died in faith under the third angel’s message, keeping the Sabbath, came forth from their dusty beds, glorified, to hear the covenant of peace that God was to make with those who had kept His law. {EW 285.1}

Notice the difficulty in describing the sun and moon at the beginning of the above passage. The sun doesn’t shine at midnight, but it “appeared.” Does this mean time has suddenly shifted? No, because the moon “stood still.” The moon didn’t move; it was still there (at midnight) when the sun appeared. This can only be resolved by understanding the symbolism of Jesus Christ as the Bridegroom, symbolized by the sun, who “appears” to the amazement of the wicked mockers.

This sign or token of the saints’ deliverance at “midnight” has many meanings, one of which is the end of the midnight cry. We have been giving the midnight cry since the beginning of the year, as explained in the first two articles in the series entitled The Bridegroom Cometh. This sign at midnight thus signifies the end of the “midnight” cry.

This is corroborated by the fact that others are also aware that Jesus is coming now. The purpose of the midnight cry is to alert others to the coming of Jesus, and the cry is finished when others hear it or can see for themselves that He is coming.

Many prophets are talking about this blood moon and are convinced that the time has finally come for the rapture, even if they don’t know the exact date. People can see that nuclear war is coming, and they know that Jesus must rapture them if any flesh is to be saved. In that sense, Krystal Beall had a very fitting message about the “hour” in which we now are.

One example of someone who actually learned the exact date of the rapture is Blue Heaven, who posted a video recently in which she saw a folded napkin, which means “I’m coming back.” This is the message Jesus left us:

And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself. (John 20:7)

Friends, Jesus is coming back. In this same dream, she then heard the date May 18, which is indeed the date of the rapture as explained in Blowing the Trumpet! She even connected it to the biblical second-month Passover as we do, being two days after it. Do you understand the depth of the things we are discovering in this study?

Do you see now why in Brother Aquiles’ bus/train dream, he was supposed to get out at a well-lit crossing, and not some dark lonely alley? He should arrive at a place where others are bearing the light of truth too, because they are watching for the coming of Jesus too and are not in darkness.

But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. (1 Thessalonians 5:4)

Another good example of one who has recognized the time of the coming of Jesus is Rhonda Empson, who on April 29 saw a depiction of the resurrection in a dream. She described it within the framework of her belief system, and although we do not share all of her beliefs, she seems to be led by God according to the light she has. In this dream, she was made to know that the resurrection would happen on the very day of Jesus’ ascension.

For her, this equates to 40 days after His resurrection, because she—like most protestants—does not have the insight that Jesus first ascended on the day of the wave sheaf to meet with the Father and learn whether His sacrifice had been sufficient for the redemption of mankind. Then, during the forty days, He spent time with the disciples to reassure them that their Savior was a living Savior, and finally He ascended again at the end of those days.

We did the date calculations according to the biblical calendar (with or without the 40 days) to see if this dream would corroborate any of the heavenly signs, and we have been astounded with the results. The day of first fruits (on which Jesus first ascended) would fall two days after the Passover blood moon of May 16, which is May 18, 2022. According to Sister Rhonda’s dream, interpreted with the understanding that it refers to when Jesus ascended on the resurrection day, this perfectly corroborates the date of the resurrection and rapture, when the saints begin their seven-day journey to heaven.

Note also that in her newest (and as she believes last!?) video, she understood that there will be no more signs. That is also what we say: this sign that we are sharing with you is the last sign—the mystery is finished, and our only work is to communicate these things to you to strengthen your faith to endure till this very end. It is a big sign, and we can’t share every aspect in one shot, but this sign is it.

Is this last sign reaching your heart? There is still more to share in other articles to strengthen your faith, but let us close this topic with a review of the travel dates as Brother Ray already shared in Blowing the Trumpet.

Once the darkening of both sun (on April 30) and moon (on May 16) have taken place, and two days later, tickets have all been checked and all passengers are accounted for, then (still May 18) the dead in Christ are raised incorruptible in the first resurrection on that very day of first fruits, the occasion on which Jesus rose from the grave and first ascended.

Now—together with the living—the redeemed ascend into the clouds and set sail for the high seas of heaven. At the Lamb’s command, the ship’s “warp drive” is engaged and the stars of the clear night sky above the ship appear to fall from heaven, leaving in the ship’s wake a hail of fire raining down upon the earth below. This is symbolized by the Arietids meteor shower that emanates from the Lamb—starting to become active on May 14—just when the sun enters Taurus and completes the ship, when the Captain takes the helm.

The evening of or after departure on May 18, 2022 begins the seventeenth day of the second Jewish month, according to the northern hemisphere reckoning. On this very day, Jupiter (the planet known for its influence over asteroids) will stand at the mouthpiece of the trumpet formed by the line of comet PanSTARRS, which could signify the hail by which the destruction of the world repeats:

In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened. (Genesis 7:11)

After the seven-day journey from May 18 to “May 24,” inclusive, the saints arrive on the sea of glass and the coronation of the 144,000 takes place, as it was prophesied:

We all entered the cloud together, and were seven days ascending to the sea of glass, when Jesus brought the crowns, and with His own right hand placed them on our heads. He gave us harps of gold and palms of victory. Here on the sea of glass the 144,000 stood in a perfect square. Some of them had very bright crowns, others not so bright. Some crowns appeared heavy with stars, while others had but few. All were perfectly satisfied with their crowns. And they were all clothed with a glorious white mantle from their shoulders to their feet. Angels were all about us as we marched over the sea of glass to the gate of the city... {EW 16.2}

Then the Prince (Jesus) who entered at the east gate now stands before that Golden Gate of the Holy City, like the sun on the eve of the crucifixion anniversary in front of the “golden gate” in Taurus:

Thus far was the description of events for “May 24, 2022.” Now comes the evening meal inside the city walls as the Jewish day of “May 25” begins:

...Jesus raised His mighty, glorious arm, laid hold of the pearly gate, swung it back on its glittering hinges, and said to us, “You have washed your robes in My blood, stood stiffly for My truth, enter in.” We all marched in and felt that we had a perfect right in the city. {EW 16.2}

Glory! Hallelujah!

Oh friends, it is all laid out in the heavens. You have come this far! The portions brought you to May 3 so that this study of May 3/4 would fill your soul with all that is needed to reach the heavenly shore. What we are sharing in these final posts and articles finishes the mystery, therefore there is no further need of portions. You are already partaking of the manna of the ark of the testament. Your daily strength now comes from the understanding of the correct day and hour of Christ’s return, sustaining you till you see your Lord on May 17/18, 2022!

A lot was covered in this article, but there is still more to come in the next part, and the Lord has crowned this light with one more final article to come after that. May the Holy Spirit strengthen you as you chew and digest all of the bread from heaven that the Lord has provided for you.
