High Watch: now till July 15, 2026

I hereby declare s high watch period, for the start of WW3, and the subsequent rise of the AntiChrist as the evil Dictator over all the Earth.

WW3 will likely be according to Daniel 7:5 with the 3 ribs in the mouth of the bear (Russia) are likely representing USA, UK, and France; the only 3 NATO countries with nuclear weapons.

[Dan 7:5 KJV] 5 And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself on one side, and [it had] three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh.

Daniel 11:1-2 likely describes Iran (previously Persia), with the 4th dynasty of Persia being far richer than the previous three likely refers to Anglo-Persia Oil Co. discovering oil in the mountains of Persia in 1908, with far greater riches starting to flow to Persia starting in 1909.

[Dan 11:1-3 KJV] 1 Also I in the first year of Darius the Mede, [even] I, stood to confirm and to strengthen him. 2 And now will I shew thee the truth. Behold, there shall stand up yet three kings in Persia; and the fourth shall be far richer than they all: and by his strength through his riches he shall stir up all against the realm of Grecia.

In 1979, the Islamic revolution in Iran started, started their existential fight for dominating Christianity by Islamic jihad against the Western world (referred to in the Bible as "Grecia") began, and continues to this day.. 

 Trump as the mighty king that attacks Iran, to fight against Iran's terrorism and jihad against Christianity, the Jews, and Israel.

[Dan 11:3-4 KJV] 3 And a mighty king shall stand up, that shall rule with great dominion, and do according to his will. 4 And when he shall stand up, his kingdom shall be broken, and shall be divided toward the four winds of heaven; and not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion which he ruled: for his kingdom shall be plucked up, even for others beside those.

I also suggest all the above culminates in Rev. 6:7-8 for the 4th Horseman:

[Rev 6:7-8 KJV] 7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see. 8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

 

USA & Israel

USA has been a good ally to Israel for most of the last 107 years.

Trump had been the best alley of Israel, as compared to all former US Presidents, but something changed on or about May 15, 2026.

Now, Trump is boasting that he "saved Israel", and "ended 8 wars", and "peace and safety". 

Trump has also, more or less, now abandoned Israel, which is similar to cursing Israel.

God promised to bless Israel, and He will also bless those who bless Israel, and He will curse those who curse Israel.

With all the other evils that USA has been doing for the last 250 years, and USA's refusal to repent like Nineveh repented, and for the USA to now move from God's blessing to His  curses for the USA's bad treatment of Israel; this is a major tipping point for Mystery Babylon, and may soon be the beginning of its sudden destruction.

This sudden destruction of USA could be any day, but I suggest a HIGH WATCH between now and July 15, 2026.

This date was chosen as a Sum=68 date (ie. 7+15+20+26= 68), just like the start date for WW1, WW2, and Russia-Ukraine War all being Sum=68 dates as well.

Suzanne, an End Times prophet of God posted her Green Horse prophecy on June 22, 2026; referring to the Bible's Book of Revelation 6:7-8 for the 4th Horseman of the Apocalypse, where Death is riding, with Hell following: 

https://doveofrevelation.com/2026/06/22/prophtic-word-green-horse-warning/

Brother Joshua Mhlakela had a vision that God said 2026 FIFA World Cup for Men's Soccer will start but not finish, as it will not be business as usual: 

https://youtube.com/shorts/OM7D3PEM1JE?si=UNHEbXk6QRqyUfyX

Please note that FIFA World Cup is scheduled for June 15 to July 19, 2026.  If WW3 occurs on June 15th as suggested, this will certainly interrupt the July 19th finish for FIFA.

The Bible prophecies in Daniel 7:5 of the bear being commanded to rise and devour much flesh.  A bear has been associated with Russia since 1650 AD.  The bear has 3 ribs in his mouth, which I suggest represent USA, UK, and France; the only 3 NATO countries with nuclear weapons.

Russia's Sneak Attack

In 1986, Henry Gruver, a Christian Prayer Walker, and a Prophet of God, had a vision of Russian nuclear subs, from the Atlantic & Pacific, hidden at the continental shelf, will launch a sneak attack of at least 7 nukes, hitting NYC, Washington DC, Miami, Spokane WA, SF, LA, & San Diego.  China, N. Korea, & others ? likely add to the mess:

There is NO SAFETY for anybody, except those with a deep, intimate, lovingly obedient relationship with Jesus Christ as your God, LORD, Messiah, Saviour, King  & friend.

Confess & repent your sins before it's too late.

Putin is Pressured into WW3

Putin is being pressured by the NR-PR's.

https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/putin-powerfully-rebuffed-hawks-who-want-him-attack-nato

"NR-PR's" are Non-Russian Pro-Russian sycophants, lobbyists, or influencers..

How long can Putin resist the NR-PR lobby, Satan, & God?  

All three are pushing Putin closer & closer to WW3 each day.

I suggest June 16, 2026 is likely the day the world goes over the cliff, falling into limited nuclear war of WW3, with 2 billion dead or dying in the first 24 hours.

The date 2026-6-16 can be summed as:   20+26+6+16= 68 which has the same Sum=68 as the start dates of WW1, WW2, and Russia-Ukraine War.  Sum=68 occurs for only ~3% of all calendar dates, so for this to occur on these 4 dates, assuming they are random independent events, has a probability= 3% × 3% × 3% × 3%= 0.81 chances in a million, very unlikely, equivalent to the annual risk of being struck by lightning.

Secondly, only God knows the future, and He prophesied in the Holy Bible, in  the Book of Daniel 7:5.

[Dan 7:5 KJV] "5 And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh."

Russia has been associated with a bear since 1650 AD.  Those "raising up itself on one side" are likely those Russians who listen to the NR-PR's of this world.  When the bear finally rises (June 16, or soon after?), the 3 ribs in its teeth will likely be USA, UK, and France, as these have been consistent antagonists against Russia for more than 80 years, and are the only 3 NATO countries with nuclear weapons.

The nuclear attack against USA will likely be Russia, China, N. Korea, and possibly others; likely as prophesied by Henry Gruver in 1986.

It will be at least 7 nukes:

3 East Coast USA, 

4 West Coast USA.

Nuked sites  in N. America are likely NYC, Washington DC, Miami, Seattle, SanFran, LA, & San Diego.

https://youtu.be/tj23b8LyTx8?list=PLoA7Hce5FJFcyB6tncAuTbFOsI8dWTU_Q

Note that this vision was before the collapse of USSR in 1991.

There is no long term safety in million dollar bunkers.  

The only safety is in a deep, intimate, lovingly obedient relationship with Jesus Christ as your God, LORD, Messiah, Saviour, King, and friend.

Every Saint has a past, and every sinner has a future.

Start by fearing God; then learn to know God; believe in & trust God; confess your sins to God; love God with all your heart, mind, soul, & strength; forgive all others and hold no bitterness; renounce Satan and all his works; decide to allow your old sinful self to die, so that the new righteous self can be Born Again as a child of God; get baptized by full water immersion for the remission of sins; pray to receive the fiery baptism of the Holy Spirit.  

You are now safe & saved, as long as you abide in God, & don't backslide, nor shipwreck your faith, nor become apostate, nor of a reprobate mind, nor take the Mark of the Beast, etc.

With the help, strengthening, and guidance of the Holy Spirit, learn to hate all sin, just as God hates all sin; and love all things that God loves.  Follow Jesus by picking up your cross on a daily basis, becoming a fisher of men, giving your testimony & preaching the Gospel to every creature, doing great exploits for the greater glory of God.

Amen.

7 Baskets for End Times

Erin is an End Times Prophetess of God.  Here is her latest posting:

Dream 951:  

The Time of Mustard Seed Faith

Received on Monday, May 18, 2026

https://sparrowcloud9.com/heaven-dreams-interpretations/the-tribulation/excerpt-from-dreams-questions-answered/full-dreams/dream-951/

My Interpretation

For interpreting this dream/prophecy, I suggest the first 3 baskets filled with mixed seeds represent the last 6 years, 2 years per basket, starting from Erin's Dream # 454

https://sparrowcloud9.com/heaven-dreams-interpretations/the-tribulation/excerpt-from-dreams-questions-answered/full-dreams/dream-454/

which sets 2020-12-14 as a "Pivotal Point". 

The mixed seeds represent the wheat and tares, the iron and clay, the saved and the doomed, the good and evil of this world's humans; currently mixed together.

The small middle basket of pure mustard seeds is God's Holy Spirit, now released into the world. This small basket represents 2026-2027, the year of transition to AntiChrist's world-wide Dictatorship.

The last 3 large baskets represents the next 6 years of AntiChrist reign, 2 years per basket. 

The few seeds in the large 5th basket represent the 0.5% of all Christians who are already True Christian.

I suggest that True Christians are Born Again, and have a deep, intimate, lovingly obedient relationship with Jesus Christ as their God, LORD, Messiah, Saviour, King, and friend.  They hate all manner of sin, just like God hates all sin.  They have gotten all iniquity (ie.  wilful, pre-planned, premeditated, or chronic sins) out of their life.  They love all things that God loves.  They have fully forgiven all those who trespasses against them, and hold no bitterness nor anger, and instead, they lovingly pray for God's grace & blessings towards their former trespassers.  They likely pray 4 or more times every day, and read the Bible every day.

 Unlike the above,  the 99.5% majority of self-declared Christians are defined by 1 or more of the following:

• luke-warm, or 
• believe in pseudo-Christian cults; 
• have 1 or more favorite sins, 
• don't fully forgive, 
• rarely pray, 
• don't read the Bible every day, 
• don't have a deep, intimate, lovingly obedient relationship with Jesus Christ;
• etc.

This 99.5% majority are not currently saved, as they believe non-biblically, &/or are workers of iniquity, or Jesus doesn't yet know them intimately.

The 0.5% True Christians (up to 12 million exist today, but 2 million of them may soon be going home early, to their God, via being a WW3 casualty, leaving 10 million to carry on for God as Disciples for Christ) will soon to be sealed and anointed as Overcomers, get their eternal bodies, and glow like Moses, so as to better lead God's End Times revival during the AntiChrist's reign, by:

• giving their testimony, 
• preaching the Gospel, 
• driving out demons, 
• baptizing to the Trinity, 
• healing the sick, 
• raising the dead, and 
• other great exploits for the greater glory of God.

As the Overcomers do their work, and the scattered mustard seeds find a home, more and more of the good people within the mixed seeds (ie. currently in the first 3 baskets) will jump to large basket #5, then start working toward their salvation. 

In 2028, the purifying seeds in basket 5 will be further refined, and able to jump to basket #6. 

Two years later, seeds in basket #6 jump to basket #7.

Second Coming of Jesus Christ is likely on or about 2033-4-10; also connected with the Rapture of the bride to Heaven for the 7 year long wedding supper of the Lamb.

During the 7 year wedding supper, the 1/3 remnant of Jews, who have converted to be Messianic Jews, will clean up the Armageddon battlefield, then Jerusalem, then the 3rd Temple (ie. 2/3 don't make the transition, staying in their sins & their non-Torah unbelief, comfortable in the first 3 baskets).

The Millennial Kingdom likely begins on or about 2040-3-4 when King Jesus and His bride return to Earth, and King Jesus sits on His throne in Jerusalem.

My previous T2 date estimate of 2026-5-17.  I suggested that on this date, it was likely that WW3 would occur per Daniel 7:5, 11:1-4, Rev. 6:7-8, and Henry Gruver's 1985 prophecy of Russians subs nuking 7 cities in USA).  Nuked sites  in N. America are likely NYC, Washington DC, Miami, Seattle, San Francisco, LA, & San Diego.

https://youtu.be/tj23b8LyTx8?list=PLoA7Hce5FJFcyB6tncAuTbFOsI8dWTU_Q

Soon after WW3 is the rise of the AntiChrist, which also did not yet occur.

Both WW3 and AntiChrist seem to have tarried.

I am still confident that they will both soon occur (possibly sometime within May 30-June 16, 2026), all according to God's perfect plan.  

Note that June 16th is the next Sum= 68 date (6+16+20+22= 68, just like the start dates of WW1, WW2, and Russia-Ukraine War).

I am only a Watchman, so my prior poor estimate of 26-5-17 is caused by me only seeing in part, through a dark glass.

I therefore set a High Watch period from May 30, 2026 to June 16, 2026 inclusive.

Why Choose on or before June 16, 2026 as the likely start of WW3?

All of the following data are associated with, or around this suggested date:

1. May 30, 2026 is a 2nd Blue Moon, a month of two full Moons, just as prophesied.  See:
   Vicki's prophecy:  https://et-manitoulin.blogspot.com/2026/05/is-may-17-2026-ww3.html
   
   
2. June 16, 2026 is a Sum=68 date (6+16+20+26=68), just as the start dates for WW1, WW2, and Russia-Ukraine War were all Sum=68 dates.  For more info, see: 
   https://et-manitoulin.blogspot.com/2025/10/ais-opinion-on-ww3.html 
   
   
3.  In Blog posting:  https://et-manitoulin.blogspot.com/2026/04/true-biblical-passover-2026.html I suggested the true start of the Biblical New Year (ie. 1 Nisan, ) likely occurred on April 18, 2026.  Chabad.org (and most other Jewish calendar sites) say that 1 Nisan began on March 19, 2026. If I am correct, then June 16, 2026 equates to 30 Iyar, which is:
   
   
•  the day after the 78th anniversary date for the founding of the modern State of Israel (May 14, 1948 ).
  
  
• the day after the anniversary date for the birth of Abraham, 1948 years after Creation;
  
  
• the day after the anniversary date for Abraham crossing over into Canaan, the future Promised Land, 2023 years after Creation.
  
  
4. Looking at the planets, Moon, and Sun we can see no significant arrangements, nor conjunctions.
   
   
5. The prophecies described in our previous High Watch date are still valid.  See: 
   https://et-manitoulin.blogspot.com/2026/05/is-may-17-2026-ww3.html

Is May 17, 2026 WW3? Update-2

***   Update #2   2026-5-21   ***

May 17, 2026 High Watch Date did not occur as anticipated.

Trump admitted that he planned to go back to Round 2 of attacking Iran on or about that date, but delayed due to requests of Saudi Arabia and others.

We are very, very close, but not quite there.

We have to look up!, stay close to Jesus, and patiently abide.

I will start looking for the next most likely date.  It might be as far away as June 16, 2026 but there may be other, more favorable dates sooner than this.

I will post as soon as I have something better figured out.

God Bless!

***   End Update #2   ***

You don't have anything to fear if you are a Born Again true Christian, with a deep, intimate, lovingly obedient relationship with Jesus Christ as your God, LORD, Messiah, Saviour, King, and friend.

However, if you're still luke-warm, asleep, or with favorite sins; this warning is for you.

The YouTube Short link below is by Vicki Parnell. Click on the link at the bottom to read the page of Vicki's prophecy text.

After following her for the last 3 years, I am still not sure if she is truly an End Times Prophetess of God.

I posted her May 9th, 2026 prophecy here  because it contains specific credible info that aligns with other prophecies and Watchman's calculations.

Here are my calculations, extending & expanding upon the likely sequence of End Times events based upon the Bible, as originally proposed by Dr. Robert Mawire, a bona fides End Times Prophet of God.  

The T2 date is suggested as on or about 2026-5-17, which is likely WW3, followed by the rise of the AntiChrist for his 7 year reign as the evil Dictator over all of the Earth.

Vicki speaks of the 3rd. Moon.  If 1 Nisan was Mar. 19th, May 17th is 1 Sivan, the start of the 3rd. month, and the 3rd. Moon, possibly as mentioned in Vicki's prophecy.

Vicky also prophesies a coded message directly to President Trump.

I also note that May 17 is a "Sum=68" date (Sum=5+17+20+26= 68), just like the start dates of WW1, WW2, and Russia-Ukraine War are all Sum=68 dates too.  I suggest this may be the start of WW3, as described by Daniel 7:5 (ie. the Bear is Russia.  The 3 ribs are USA, UK, and France; the only 3 NATO countries with nuclear weapons), and also according to Rev. 6:7-8 with 2 Billion people dead or dying; and also according to Daniel 11:1-4.

In Dan 11:1-4, the 4th dynasty of Persia (now called Iran) that was richer than all previous began in 1908, when the Anglo-Persian Oil Co. discovered crude oil in Persia.  After the 1979 Muslim coup, Iran became the world's leader in terrorism & Islamic jihad, usurping its neighbours, and constantly trying to destroy Israel, USA, and the Western world.  In Verse 3, Donald Trump is obviously the mighty King who rises so as to stop the terror by Iran.  Soon, Verse 4 foretells that Trump & USA will be destroyed.

The attack against USA may be according to the vision of Henry Gruver, when at least 7 cities of USA get nuked by Russian subs.

https://youtu.be/tj23b8LyTx8?list=PLoA7Hce5FJFcyB6tncAuTbFOsI8dWTU_Q

Those 7 US cities have 16.9 Million people, or 5% of the US's total population.

Vicki Parnell's Prophecy:

http://youtube.com/post/Ugkxvl8f7djIC-ULDfh7J4yfiTrE1_0_5kt6

Trump Goes to China

Today (May 12th), Trump is finally on his way to China for the next 5 days, just as this dream from 5 years ago suggests. 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZjsjKjYTac

Does this dream by @Holly 2 Moons  suggest Trump's plane crashes, or Trump is Raptured, or taken by the Chinese; never to return to the USA? 

The Chinese flag has one large star, surrounded by an arc of 4 smaller stars.  The yellow (golden?) star are on a solid red background; somewhat like her dream. 

In this dream, was Trump's head alegorically acting as the large star, coming towards the 4 smaller stars of the Chinese national flag, then Trump disappeared?

She also speaks about the Moon having 2 circuits.  In May 2026, there are two full moons:  May 1st. and May 30th.  This may be what her dream was referring to.

Two full moons in one month is usually called a Blue Moon, which only occurs 7 times during a 19 year period (ie. 3% odds).

She mentioned that many people have dreamed that Rapture occurs when there are two Moons.  Rather than Earth suddenly gaining an additional Moon, it is more likely this refers to a month with two full Moons, as in May 2026.

Rapture vs. WW3 Casulties

With 2 Billion people dead or dying as prophesied in Rev. 6:7-8, some might technically call this a Pre-Trib. Rapture, but likely totally different from what they had in mind.

The Bible says Death and Hell will be given power over a forth part of the Earth.  I believe that means, of the 8 billion people on Earth today, 25% of them will be dead or dying within 24 hours after WW3 starts (ie. fall of Mystery-Babylon in just 1 day).

Let's assume those who die are in the same ratio as  their current demographic concentrations.

Some who die will be saved children of God who come home early to God & their eternal rest.  

I estimate that 0.5% of those who claim to be Christian are Born Again Christians with an intimate, lovingly obedient relationship with Jesus Chrust as their God, LORD, Messiah, Saviour, King, and friend.  

The other 99.5% are Luke-warm, deceived, hypocrites, pseudo-Christians who believe a non-Biblical cult, wolves in sheep's clothing, or workers of iniquity.  

With 2.4 billion Christians in the world, that 0.5% fraction equates to 12 million true Christians. 

8.2 billion total population

2.4 b Christians, which is:

      0.012 b true Christians

      2.388 b luke warm or worse

5.8 b non-Christian

WW3: 25% death rate

Assuming death is randomly & evenly distributed by God among all these groups.  We get:

Of the 2.05 B. total world population who die in WW3=

0.6 b Christians=

      0.003 B. True Christians

      (ie. 3 million)

      0.597 B. luke warm Christians

       (ie. 597 million) 

1.45 B. non-Christians

0.003+0.597+1.45= 2.05   check!

That means: 1.994 billion people will die in their sins at the first & only day of WW3; and are subsequently doomed to Hell (ie. Lake of Fire).

The Bible implies there will be an End Times revival, so I suggest many of those true Christians need to stay behind to run God's revival as Overcomers.  

If true, of the 12 million True Christians who exist today, with 3 million true Christians dead in WW3 (ie. can go home early as loved children of God), that leaves 9 million True Christians to run God's End Times Revival.

Discounting mountain peaks, deserts, and glaciers, there is about 43.5% of the Earth's land surface (ie. 63.8 million sq. km) that is truly habitable.  

With a remnant of just 9 million True Christian's after WW3, that is 1 True Christian for every 7.09 sq. km, or a territory 2.7 km × 2.7 km. for each Overcomer, so if God translates all of His Overcomers evenly over the entire Earth, each Overcomer has a territory of 2.7 x 2.7 km. on average; so all the Overcomer's assigned territory is within a half hour walk, on average.  That's truly saturation coverage for God's End Time Revival.  

Each Overcomer will likely be sealed by God, annointed by God, given their eternal body, and commanded by Jesus for the next 7 years to:  

• give their testimony, 
• preach the Gospel, 
• baptize, 
• heal the sick, 
• drive out demons, 
• raise the dead, and 
• other great exploits for the greater glory of God.

99.5% of Christians are Luke-Warm, or CINO's

There have only been 5 types of humans in this world:

• Jesus Christ, both fully God, and fully man;
• True Christians who are Hot for Jesus Christ
• Luke-warm Christians & CINO's (Christians In Name Only)
• Non-Christians who are cold & distant from the One True God
• Semi-humans with defiled DNA (eg. Nephilim: offspring of humans inter-bred with Fallen Angels, cyborgs, genetic experiments, etc.)

Based on numerous surveys of those self-declaring as a Christian, only ~0.5% of these currently meet God's definition of a True Christian:

A human who fears God; knows God; fully loves God; contritely & humbly confessed all their sins to God, and asked for forgiveness; forgiven all others, and retain no bitterness; seeks a deep, intimate lovingly obedient relationship with Jesus Christ as their God, LORD, Messiah, Saviour, King, and friend; is full immersion baptized in the name of the Trinity; is Born Again; has received the fiery baptism of the Holy Spirit; hates all sins, just as God hates all sin; loves all things that God loves; picks up their cross daily and follows Jesus, as a disciple of Christ for the greater glory of God.

Not everybody is a True Christian.  Most are luke-warm.

 [Rev 3:14-17 KJV] "14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; 15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. 17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:".

In most cases, but not all, the luke-warm Christian:

• lives a secret life with their favorite sins; &/or

• hypocritically virtue signaling their fake righteousness to most other people; &/or 

• falsely call many actions & things they enjoy as "good", or necessary, or God's rules don't apply to them, as they are "special", claiming they have done so much for God, that God will turn a blind eye towards their "insignificant" sin; in spite of God clearly defining these as sins that He despises.

The luke-warm Christian is all for show.  They usually seek maximum comfort in this life, rather than maximum righteousness.  Therefore there is minimal to zero driving force for them to change for the better.

The luke-warm Christian usually seeks human affirmations (ie.  loving the affirmations of the "in" crowd), rather than pleasing God.  This is usually driven by vanity.

Vanity = Luke-Warm

Vanity is defined as excessive pride, admiration, or preoccupation with one's own appearance, achievements, or abilities, often driven by a need for approval from others. It implies conceit and, in a literary sense, refers to futility or emptiness. Synonyms include conceit, narcissism, egotism, self-love, and arrogance.

The Problem with Seeking Human Affirmation:

• It is Fickle: The "in crowd" changes their minds quickly. What brings praise today might bring criticism tomorrow.

• It is Never Enough: Human affirmation is addictive and temporary; you are always looking for the next "fix" of approval.

• It Often Requires Compromise: To keep the approval of the crowd, you often have to compromise your own values, your identity, your relationship with Jesus Christ, and ultimately, your salvation.

The Teaching

In Revelation 3:14-17, Jesus prefers "cold" over "lukewarm" because lukewarm represents a useless, self-satisfied, and complacent spiritual state that disgusts Him, while cold—representing a clear lack of faith—is at least honest and potentially open to change.  Lukewarm believers are ineffective and deceptive, claiming to follow God while being indifferent, whereas cold people are clearly detached.

The Metaphor of Utility: 

The city of Laodicea had no local water source, so water was brought in by Roman aquaduct. As the water travelled in the aqueduct, the cold refreshing mountain spring water grew more & more warm, contaminated, and foul; causing nausea.  Other cities had hot water springs for hot baths & healing (like the city Hierapolis), or cold refreshing water (like Colossae).

The Danger of Complacency: 

The Laodiceans were wealthy and deemed themselves self-sufficient, leading to a "lukewarm" faith that was neither passionate (hot) nor clearly non-existent (cold).

"Cold" is Honest: 

A cold person realizes their need for spiritual life, whereas a lukewarm person is blinded by their own self-righteousness and apathy.

The Result of Lukewarmness: 

Jesus states He will "spew" (vomit) the lukewarm out of His mouth, indicating a complete lack of usefulness and spiritual stagnation.

In essence, a lukewarm state is a hypocritical, middle-ground existence that hinders genuine spiritual growth and witness, making it worse than outright coldness.

God's 26 Commandments for Christians is a summary of 300+ Bible verses, especially written for Luke-warm Christian's, and new Christian's.  It helps them get started at better understanding God and His expectations.

If you are faithfully doing all of these 26 Commandments, you are not likely a Luke-warm Christian, and likely Rapture-Ready as a disciple of Christ, and an Overcomer.  Congratulations!  We encourage to expand your gaze to doing the same for the entire Bible.

Chaos of Trump-47 Explained

Some think Trump has gone senile, or insane, or is a traitor of MAGA &/or USA.

In fact, Trump is effectively herding millions of feisty, independent cats into a co-ordinated force that is slowly coming together, in spite of themselves.

Excerpt:

" ...

6. Not all statements [by Trump] are equal; some are bait, some are positioning, some are actual intent. There are also deliberate contradictions as method, not failure, confusion, frustration, or incompetence.

7. Bait works to draw attention to the subject itself, especially when Trump appears to take a bizarre or ‘unexpected’, unpopular position. Sometimes it is simply to draw attention to an otherwise mundane subject, using his wild antics to draw hostile media attention which amplifies it beyond the confines of the embargo on his speech. Other times hostile legacy media which is set on ‘autopilot’ to attack everything he says, will invariably wind up approximating his own true position and telegraphing to the public and the world at large, thinking they are contradicting him.

..."

The brilliant strategy behind Trump's apparent chaos...

True Biblical Passover 2026?

Jew's Babylonian calendar calculations are off. We can suspect this by their corrupt fruit.  For example, most Jews use Babylonian names for the name of the month, and the days of the week.  They also start their day at sundown, just like the Babylonians did, and the Muslims still do.  All of this conflicts with the Bible.

Roman Catholic calculations, based on Jew's errors, are also off.  Most Protestant denominations blindly follow the Roman Catholics

After careful study of the alternatives, I agree with Dr. Barry Awe's recommendations for God's likely Biblical calendar:

It is suggest that the fully correct definition for the start of the Biblical year is the earliest date that meets all of the following 6 criteria:

1. Day of Equilux (ie. 12 hr. day, 12 hour night) has occurred (always on  March 17th).

2.  Spring Equinox has occurred (ie. also called the Vernal Equinox or "first point of Aries".  This occurs when the Sun is positioned directly above Earth's equator, which causes the Sun to rise directly East, and sets directly West; usually occurs on March 19, 20, or 21).

3.  The Waxing New Moon crescent becomes visible just after sunset.   The first visible sign of the new moon is the "young moon" or waxing crescent, which appears very low on the western horizon just after sunset, typically 18–30 hours after the official astronomical new moon.

4.  The New Moon is in the constellation Aries.

5.  The Sun is in the constellation Pisces.

6.  At or shortly after sunset, the constellations Orion, Great Bear ( ie. Ursa Major), Arcturus (in Bootes), and Spica (in Virgo) are above the horizon & visible in Jerusalem, Israel (see Job 38:31-33).

Application of Rules to 2026

In 2026, all of these conditions are true for the start of the Biblical New Year on April 18, 2026 at sundown.

According to Stellarium, New Moon begins at 2026-4-17 1:25:20, as phase goes from 0.1 to 0.0

At 2026-4-18 3:14:36, Moon phase goes from 0 to 0.1

New Moon Duration= 22:34:40 + 3:14:36= 25:48:76= 1d:1h:49m:16s

Mid-point= 0.5d:0.5h:24.5 m:8 s= 0d:12h:54m:38s

Astronomical New Moon Centre Point= 2026-4-17 13:79:58= 2026-4-17 14:19:58

Thin crescent is first visible at 18 to 30 hours after this centre point.

First likely visibility of sliver of Moon at 2026-4-17 32:19:58= 2026-4-18 8:19:58, with 1% phase illumination.

Add 15 days for full Moon on Preparation Day= 2026-4-33 8:19:58= 2026-5-3 8:19:58

Passover begins at Sundown (ie. 7:22 pm in Jerusalem Israel), after Preparation Day= 2026-5-3 19:22:00 pm.
