1Co. 10:1 For I do not want you to be ignorant of the fact, brothers, that our forefathers were all under the cloud and that they all passed through the sea.
1Co. 10:2 They were all baptised into Moses in the cloud and in the sea.
1Co. 10:3 They all ate the same spiritual food
1Co. 10:4 and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ.
1Co. 10:5 Nevertheless, God was not pleased with most of them; their bodies were scattered over the desert.
1Co. 10:11 These things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us, on whom the fulfilment of the ages has come.

All the people journeying towards the rapture of the saints are baptized into Jesus Christ in the Holy Spirit and in water. Any person who does not meet this criteria is not a candidate for rapture.

Ex. 13:4 Today, in the month of Abib, you are leaving.

As I presented in this thread, https://www.nairaland.com/3549267/predictions-2017-end-time-events, the journey to the rapture begins by full moon in the Hebrew month of Abib or Nisan. It begins with the breaking of the first seal of Revelation 6.

Ex. 13:17 When Pharaoh let the people go, God did not lead them on the road through the Philistine country, though that was shorter. For God said, “If they face war, they might change their minds and return to Egypt.”

A lot of Christians expected God to take the short route of pre-trib rapture, which would bypass any tribulation. Unfortunately, they do not know that the current spiritual potential level of Christians places them below demons. (The concept of spiritual potential is explained in this post: http://www.godlikeproductions.com/forum1/message3389006/reply60384527.) Consequently, even if God were supposed to operate a pre-trib rapture, when Christians rise up to the heavenlies, they cannot withstand war against opposition demons; neither will they be able to stand before Jesus Christ, since Jesus spiritual potential level is rather too high. In order for the people of God to rise up to sufficient level of spiritual potential, they need some months of desert living.

Ac. 14:21 They preached the good news in that city and won a large number of disciples. Then they returned to Lystra, Iconium and Antioch,
Ac. 14:22 strengthening the disciples and encouraging them to remain true to the faith. “We must go through many hardships to enter the kingdom of God,” they said.

Ex. 16:1 The whole Israelite community set out from Elim and came to the Desert of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after they had come out of
Egypt.
Ex. 16:2 In the desert the whole community grumbled against Moses and Aaron.
Ex. 16:3 The Israelites said to them, “If only we had died by the LORD’s hand in Egypt! There we sat round pots of meat and ate all the food we wanted, but you have brought us out into this desert to starve this entire assembly to death.”
Ex. 16:4 Then the LORD said to Moses, “I will rain down bread from heaven for you.
Ex. 16:13 That evening quail came and covered the camp, and in the morning there was a layer of dew around the camp.
Ex. 16:14 When the dew was gone, thin flakes like frost on the ground appeared on the desert floor.

By full moon of the second month, real desert experience begins. This is when the second seal of Revelation 6 is broken. It is this time that end-time wars begin. God begins to feed His people with the bread of life (the living manna). This is food for the inner man and will cause the inner man to grow mightily and be doing great works. The spiritual potential level ramps up quit steeply.

Ex. 17:1 The whole Israelite community set out from the Desert of Sin, travelling from place to place as the LORD commanded. They camped at Rephidim, but there was no water for the people to drink.
Ex. 17:3 But the people were thirsty for water there, and they grumbled against Moses. They said, “Why did you bring us up out of Egypt to make us and our children and livestock die of thirst?”
Ex. 17:4 Then Moses cried out to the LORD, “What am I to do with these people? They are almost ready to stone me.”
Ex. 17:5 The LORD answered Moses, “Walk on ahead of the people. Take with you some of the elders of Israel and take in your hand the staff with which you struck the Nile, and go.
Ex. 17:6 I will stand there before you by the rock at Horeb. Strike the rock, and water will come out of it for the people to drink.” So Moses did this in the sight of the elders of Israel.

Even though the timing of the event in Exodus 17 is not given, I think that it took place by full moon of the third month. That should be the proper time for the Feast of Shavuot (Pentecost). Pentecost actually commemorates when the Israelites drank water from the Rock at Horeb. The Church Age began on a Feast of Pentecost with the Holy Spirit coming upon the disciples of Jesus Christ. The latter rain of the Holy Spirit will come upon the people of God by full moon of June 2017. That is also when the third seal of Revelation 6 will be broken. According to Re. 6:5-6, when the third seal is broken, a great famine will hit some place in the world. This great famine will be chiefly as a result of crop failures caused by drought.

Weatherwise the year will start with a very rainy spring. On June 9th it gets very hot and no rain with resulting crop failures. http://www.thewatcherfiles.com/articles/occupation.htm

In Chuck Youngbrandt's vision, US weather of a certain year gets very hot by June 9, with no rain, leading to crop failures. June 9, 2017 happens to be the day of full moon of the third month of ancient Hebrew calendar.

1Co. 10:1 For I do not want you to be ignorant of the fact, brothers, that our forefathers were all under the cloud and that they all passed through the sea.
1Co. 10:2 They were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea.
1Co. 10:3 They all ate the same spiritual food
1Co. 10:4 and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ.
1Co. 10:5 Nevertheless, God was not pleased with most of them; their bodies were scattered over the desert.

1Corinthians 10 gives us the aspects of the story in the book of Exodus that matter to the generation of people upon whom the fulfillment of the ages would come. Those aspects are: 1) Baptism in water and in the Holy Spirit; 2) Eat spiritual food (the bread of life); and 3)Drink spiritual drink (living water).

Even if a person participates in all these three aspects, s/he could still not make the rapture. These three aspects are necessary, but not sufficient. One thing that must be added to the three in order to make the rapture is the practice of faith.

Nu. 13:1 The LORD said to Moses,
Nu. 13:2 “Send some men to explore the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the Israelites. From each ancestral tribe send one of its leaders.”
Nu. 13:3 So at the LORD’s command Moses sent them out from the Desert of Paran. All of them were leaders of the Israelites.
Nu. 13:25 At the end of forty days they returned from exploring the land.
Nu. 13:27 They gave Moses this account: “We went into the land to which you sent us, and it does flow with milk and honey! Here is its fruit.
Nu. 13:28 But the people who live there are powerful, and the cities are fortified and very large. We even saw descendants of Anak there.
Nu. 13:30 Then Caleb silenced the people before Moses and said, “We should go up and take possession of the land, for we can certainly do it.”
Nu. 13:31 But the men who had gone up with him said, “We can’t attack those people; they are stronger than we are.”
Nu. 14:1 That night all the people of the community raised their voices and wept aloud.
Nu. 14:2 All the Israelites grumbled against Moses and Aaron, and the whole assembly said to them, “If only we had died in Egypt! Or in this desert!
Nu. 14:3 Why is the LORD bringing us to this land only to let us fall by the sword? Our wives and children will be taken as plunder. Wouldn’t it be better for us to go back to Egypt?”
Nu. 14:11 The LORD said to Moses, “How long will these people treat me with contempt? How long will they refuse to believe in me, in spite of all the miraculous signs I have performed among them?

God tested the Israelites to see if they had enough faith to enter the Promised Land. They failed woefully. Christians headed for rapture will also be tested. That will take place after the fifth seal is opened. Many Christians that have fed on the bread of life and drunk living water will fall from the faith.
