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. The people are to go out each day and gather enough for that day. In this way I will test them and see whether they will follow my instructions.


1Co. 10:11 These things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us, on whom the fulfillment of the ages has come.

In the evening of the 15th day of the second month, God rained down the bread of life upon His people. I think the 144,000 Israelites will begin to manifest towards the end of next week, as God clothes them with great power.

Lk. 4:14 Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and news about him spread through the whole countryside.
Lk. 4:15 He taught in their synagogues, and everyone praised him.

Re. 14:3 And they sang a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders. No-one could learn the song except the 144,000 who had been redeemed from the earth.
Re. 14:4 These are those who did not defile themselves with women, for they kept themselves pure. They follow the Lamb wherever he goes. They were purchased from among men and offered as firstfruits to God and the Lamb.
Re. 14:5 No lie was found in their mouths; they are blameless.
Re. 14:6 Then I saw another angel flying in mid-air, and he had the eternal gospel to proclaim to those who live on the earth — to every nation, tribe, language and people.
Re. 14:7 He said in a loud voice, “Fear God and give him glory, because the hour of his judgment has come. Worship him who made the heavens, the earth, the sea and the springs of water.”

Shortly after the second seal is broken, the firstfruits (the 144,000) will be redeemed and transformed. An angel will give them the eternal gospel; the gospel that will enable the sons of God to grow up to adoption.

Kei144:
By full moon of the month of Tishrei 2017, the sons of God will transform from mortal to immortality. Full moon of the month of Tishrei happens to be the beginning of the Feast of Tabernacles. Forty days later, the rapture takes place.

Jn. 7:37 On the last and greatest day of the Feast, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink.
Jn. 7:38 Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him.”

I have now come to conclusion that the seals are broken at full moon. The second seal will be broken towards the end of next week. The sons of God are adopted at the breaking of the seventh seal; which will be on the first day of Feast of tabernacles this year.

De. 28:36 The LORD will drive you and the king you set over you to a nation unknown to you or your fathers. There you will worship other gods, gods of wood and stone.
De. 28:37 You will become a thing of horror and an object of scorn and ridicule to all the nations where the LORD will drive you.

North Korea will fire first. This week! Once the first shot is fired, the world will continue going downhill until everything is destroyed.

The way to overcome sin is to live by the Spirit. But the practicals are not well understood.

Nu. 20:2 Now there was no water for the community, and the people gathered in opposition to Moses and Aaron.
Nu. 20:6 Moses and Aaron went from the assembly to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and fell face down, and the glory of the
LORD appeared to them.
Nu. 20:7 The LORD said to Moses,
Nu. 20:8 “Take the staff, and you and your brother Aaron gather the assembly together. Speak to that rock before their eyes and it
will pour out its water. You will bring water out of the rock for the community so that they and their livestock can drink.”

The holy Spirit in you is the Rock. Speak to the Rock.

Holy Spirit, put to death in me the sin of . . . Make me dead to this sin and alive to righteousness. Great Spirit, transform me by renewing my mind, so that the thought process that leads to this sin will not go through in my mind again. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ.

Ro. 12:1 Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God — this is your spiritual act of worship.
Ro. 12:2 Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is — his good, pleasing and perfect will.

Ro. 8:13 For if you live according to the sinful nature, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live

Opening of the First Seal

Re. 6:1 I watched as the Lamb opened the first of the seven seals. Then I heard one of the four living creatures say in a voice like thunder, “Come!”
Re. 6:2 I looked, and there before me was a white horse! Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest.

Seal 1 will be opened on 1st of Nisan, 5777, that is on March 28th, 2017. The 144,000 Israelite evangelists arise. The establishment of the kingdom of God (Da. 2:44) begins as the 144,000 begin to preach the gospel of the kingdom (Mt. 24:14). Once the establishment of the kingdom of God begins, the kingdom of darkness will become agitated. The kingdom of darkness will definitely respond by causing so much trouble in the world.

Passover 2017

Two weeks ago, I was eagerly waiting for March 28th, for the great end-time anointing to come down upon me. In the early hours of Monday 27th March (Nigerian time), I was in a dream and towards the end of this dream I was about to get married. (I am married in real life.) The pastor of my wife’s church was in charge of this wedding that was about to take place. I got to the pastor, expecting the marriage to take place almost immediately. But the pastor told me that before the marriage could take place, I would have to mould a replica of my bride. I was somehow disappointed and I thought to myself that this would take me two weeks to accomplish. Then I woke up.

As soon as I woke up from the dream, I thought to myself that two weeks means Passover. Many people already knew my prediction about March 28th and if they don’t see anything happen on that date, they would say that my prediction failed. Then I remembered a dream that I had in November 2005, while I resided in Swaziland. In that dream, I was on an extremely long journey. The journey involved trekking and transport by all manners of vehicles. The journey ended on a street lined up with churches. Every church building was newly and brightly painted. I received the knowledge that the church that is the number 14 on the street was having its anniversary and the other churches joined it in solidarity. As I was about to reach the number 14 church, I woke up. I could not decipher the meaning of the dream. It was not until I had a certain dream in 2011 that as I contemplated on the 2011 dream, the 2005 dream suddenly came to my mind. Synergy between the two dreams made me to understand both dreams. The number 14 church of the 2005 dream refers to Passover (Nissan 14 of an unknown year). I had been on a very long and difficult spiritual journey for most of my life. The 2005 dream pointed at Passover of an unknown year as when my journey would end.

Monday April 10 (GMT +2) is the antitype (“anniversary”) of the exit of Israelites from Egypt and hence their entrance into the desert, as they made their way towards the Promised Land. From Monday April 10th, the people of God will begin entry into desert living (tribulation) as they head towards the rapture. The world will never be the same again.

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. 10:6 Now these things occurred as examples [Or types] to keep us from setting our hearts on evil things as they did.
1Co. 10:11 These things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us, on whom the fulfillment of the ages has come.

Most people take it for granted that weight loss is a good thing - it's why you probably say "thank you!" if someone says you look skinny.

But Ijeoma Oluo, 36, a Seattle area writer who's lived both above and below the "ideal" body mass index, no longer sees the benefit in her body being small - or anything besides happy.

She recently shared her story in a moving Facebook essay that has received more than 500 comments so far and has been shared by more than 2,300 people, who are likely intent on clarifying that your weight isn't linked to your worth.

In short, Ijeoma recalls an ex-boyfriend sexually assaulting her at age 22. "I decided that as long as I was fat, nobody who wasn't abusive was going to want to be with me," she wrote. In the year that followed, she counted calories, weighed herself multiple times a day, ran past the point of pain, skipped entire meals to allow for small treats, bought into weight loss books and magazines, and kept meticulous tabs on her progress. "And all of this work that took over my entire life," she wrote - adding that her efforts did amount to weight loss that she maintained for five years.

Instead of taking joy in her success, though, she was utterly disgusted: Although the only physical thing that changed was her appearance, her weight loss shed light on the way people - from potential partners to employers and strangers - and environments, like theaters designed for people who can fit into standard-size seats, are kinder to people when they're smaller.

"I resented it all while desperately clinging to it, terrified that the moment I stopped dedicating my every waking moment to shrinking myself, the world would go back to treating me like a failure, and I would no longer be allowed to love myself," she wrote.

Despite the celebratory compliments and VIP treatment, Ijeoma upheld that weight loss did not make her a better person, let alone more interesting, creative, or kind. "I became me, only smaller, and absolutely obsessed with what I put in my mouth," she wrote.

When Ijeoma got pregnant with her youngest child, she gained back some of the weight she'd lost. Three years later, during which she's built a family, bought a house, and launched her career, she has returned to her original weight.

"These were the years where I packed my life with more accomplishments than I had ever before imagined. Or, these are the years I got fat again - it depends on who you ask," Ijeoma wrote, ultimately concluding that her allegiance lies with the heavier version of herself. "I will not support the harmful notion that a smaller body is a moral victory," she wrote.

It's no wonder people are applauding Ijeoma for getting R-E-A-L about the way she figured out what matters: treating people with kindness and decency, regardless of their weight. After all, size-shaming won't stop until we stop doing it to ourselves.

The driver of a pickup truck that collided with a church minibus in rural Texas, killing 13 people, apologized after the crash and acknowledged he had been texting while driving, a witness said Friday.

Jody Kuchler told The Associated Press he was driving behind the truck and had seen it moving erratically prior to the Wednesday collision on a two-lane road about 75 miles west (120 km) of San Antonio, near the town of Concan. Kuchler said the truck had crossed the center line several times while he followed it.

Kuchler, 55, a self-employed welder, said he and his girlfriend were driving back to their home in the nearby town of Leakey when he came across a truck that was driving erratically across the road.

"He kept going off the road and into oncoming traffic and he just kept doing that," said Kuchler, who followed the truck for at least 15 minutes.

Kuchler said he called the sheriff's offices for both Uvalde and Real counties and told them "they needed to get him off the road before he hit somebody."

Kuchler said he witnessed the crash and afterward, he checked on both the bus and the truck and was able to speak with the driver of the truck, who has been identified by the Texas Department of Public Safety as 20-year-old Jack Dillon Young, of Leakey.

"He said, 'I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I was texting.' I said, 'Son, do you know what you just did?' He said, 'I'm sorry. I'm sorry,'" Kuchler recalled.

The wreck occurred along a curve in the road where the speed limit is 65 mph, according to Department of Public Safety officials.

Department of Public Safety Sgt. Conrad Hein declined to comment on Friday on the cause of the crash or if texting might have played a role. But officials have said the truck driver appeared to have crossed the center line.

Federal investigators would not comment on the report Friday. However, Jennifer Morrison, the investigator in charge of the team from the National Transportation Safety Board, said Friday that distracted driving will be among the issues investigated.

The First Baptist Church of New Braunfels, Texas, said its members were on the bus returning from a three-day retreat at the Alto Frio Baptist Encampment in Leakey, about 9 miles (15 kilometers) from the crash site.

Young remains hospitalized following the crash. Twelve people on the bus died at the scene, authorities said. Another died at a San Antonio hospital. One bus passenger remains hospitalized in serious but stable condition, according to the church.

The bus occupants ranged in age from 61 to 87.

Texas is unusual in that it has no statewide ban on texting while driving. Dozens of cities across the state prohibit the practice, but local ordinances may not have applied in the rural area where Wednesday's crash occurred. Laws in 46 other states ban sending or reading email, using apps or engaging in other use of the internet while driving.

Texas' GOP-controlled Legislature approved a statewide ban in 2011 but it was vetoed by then-Gov. Rick Perry, who characterized such prohibitions as government micromanagement and said educating drivers was the key to deterrence. A similar proposal passed the Texas House a few weeks ago but has yet to make it to a Senate floor vote.

The number of motor vehicle deaths in the U.S. last year topped 40,000 for the first time since 2007, according to the National Safety Council. The number of vehicle crash deaths in Texas rose 7 percent last year to 3,464, slightly higher than the national rise. One-in-10 driving fatalities in 2015 were caused by some kind of distraction, the U.S Department of Transportation said.

Morrison said most, if not all, of the bus occupants in the Texas crash were wearing seat belts. The driver and front-passenger seats had three-point lap-and-shoulder belts while the rest of the seats behind had lap belts only, she said.

Three-point seat belts are always preferable to lap belts because they hold the upper torso in place and help prevent head injuries, said automotive safety advocate Joan Claybrook. One of the problems with lap belts only is that in a frontal impact crash, people will remain in their seats but their upper bodies will go forward and their heads can strike the back of the seat in front, she said.

If the passengers wearing lap-only belts are seated along the sides of the buses, instead of facing forward, they will often hit their heads on the sides of the vehicle or the windows, said Henry Jasny, senior vice president of Advocates for Highway and Auto Safety. A frontal crash of this type would be like "hitting a brick wall," he said.

The NTSB identified the church vehicle as a 2004 Ford E-350 series van that had been converted to a minibus. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the only safety issues identified with that vehicle model from that particular year was a fuse problem reported in 2007 in vehicles that had been retrofitted to become ambulances.

Opening of the Second Seal

Re. 6:3 When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come!”
Re. 6:4 Then another horse came out, a fiery red one. Its rider was given power to take peace from the earth and to make men slay each other. To him was given a large sword.

Seal 2 will very likely be opened in the second month of God's calendar. 1st of Iyyar, 5777 is on April 27th, 2017. Any time from this date, major wars begins to rage around the world.

Relating Mother Shipton's Prophecy to the Bible

When Gabriel stands on sea and shore And as he blows his wondrous horn:

Re. 8:6 Then the seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared to sound them.
Re. 8:7 The first angel sounded his trumpet, and there came hail and fire mixed with blood, and it was hurled down upon the earth. A third of the earth was burned up, a third of the trees were burned up, and all the green grass was burned up.

When the first trumpet of Revelation 8 sounds (November 2017), an astronomical event will cause massive drought that will affect one third of the earth's surface. This will cause the diminishing water spout that Mother Shipton saw.

Re. 8:8 The second angel sounded his trumpet, and something like a huge mountain, all ablaze, was thrown into the sea. A third of the sea turned into blood,
Re. 8:9 a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.

By the time the second trumpet sounds, a huge asteroid falls into the sea. This will cause both earth-wide earthquake and massive flooding of coastal lands.

A silver serpent comes to view And spew out men of like unknown

This is the second coming of Jesus. Jesus comes back with the sons of God that were snatched up to heaven. The sons of God are no longer mortals, but immortals (spirit beings).

The New World (from Mother Shipton's Prophecy)

And in some far off distant land
Some men - oh such a tiny band
Will have to leave their solid mount
And span the earth, those few to count,
Who survives this (unreadable) and then
Begin the human race again.

But not on land already there
But on ocean beds, stark, dry and bare
Not every soul on Earth will die
As the Dragons tail goes sweeping by.

Not every land on earth will sink
But these will wallow in stench and stink
Of rotting bodies of beast and man
Of vegetation crisped on land.

But the land that rises from the sea
Will be dry and clean and soft and free
Of mankinds' dirt and therefore be
The source of man's new dynasty.

And before the race is built anew
A silver serpent comes to view
And spew out men of like unknown
To mingle with the earth now grown
Cold from its heat and these men can
Enlighten the minds of future man.

To intermingle and show them how
To live and love and thus endow
The children with the second sight.
A natural thing so that they might
Grow graceful, humble and when they do
The Golden Age will start anew.

From Mother Shipton's Prophecy

When Gabriel stands on sea and shore
And as he blows his wondrous horn
Old worlds die and new be born.

A fiery dragon will cross the sky
Six times before this earth shall die
Mankind will tremble and frightened be
for the sixth heralds in this prophecy.

For seven days and seven nights
Man will watch this awesome sight.
The tides will rise beyond their ken
To bite away the shores and then
The mountains will begin to roar
And earthquakes split the plain to shore.

And flooding waters, rushing in
Will flood the lands with such a din
That mankind cowers in muddy fen
And snarls about his fellow men.

He bares his teeth and fights and kills
And secrets food in secret hills
And ugly in his fear, he lies
To kill marauders, thieves and spies.

Man flees in terror from the floods
And kills, and rapes and lies in blood
And spilling blood by mankinds' hands
Will stain and bitter many lands
And when the dragon's tail is gone,
Man forgets, and smiles, and carries on
To apply himself - too late, too late
For mankind has earned deserved fate.

His masked smile - his false grandeur,
Will serve the Gods their anger stir.
And they will send the Dragon back
To light the sky - his tail will crack
Upon the earth and rend the earth
And man shall flee, King, Lord, and serf.

But slowly they are routed out
To seek diminishing water spout
And men will die of thirst before
The oceans rise to mount the shore.

Winding Down the Old World

Once God takes His sons from this world, He will wind it down.

Re. 12:6 The woman fled into the desert to a place prepared for her by God, where she might be taken care of for 1,260 days.
Re. 12:7 And there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back.
Re. 12:8 But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven.
Re. 12:9 The great dragon was hurled down — that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.

After the rapture, Satan and his angels are hurled to planet earth. There will be full display of the power of Satan and his angels to the world. Satan will possess the Antichrist with the fullness of his spirit, and through him rule over the world. All these will take place in a period of 42 months.

He. 2:5 It is not to angels that he has subjected the world to come, about which we are speaking.

A new world is about to begin, as the current world comes to an end. A period of transition is about to ensue. The transition period begins on March 28, 2017. On this date, the raising up of the rulers of the coming new world begins.

Re. 12:1 A great and wondrous sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head.
Re. 12:2 She was pregnant and cried out in pain as she was about to give birth.
Re. 12:3 Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns on his heads.
Re. 12:4 His tail swept a third of the stars out of the sky and flung them to the earth. The dragon stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that he might devour her child the moment it was born.
Re. 12:5 She gave birth to a son, a male child, who will rule all the nations with an iron sceptre. And her child was snatched up to God and to his throne.

Mt. 24:7 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places.
Mt. 24:8 All these are the beginning of birth-pains.

From March 28, 2017, the pregnancy of the woman of Revelation 12 begins and the pains of pregnancy will begin to appear. As time goes, the intensity of the pains will continue to increase. The child in the womb of the pregnant woman will continue to grow. The child represents the sons of God; they will in all things grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ (Ep. 4:15). The woman of Revelation 12 represents the 144,000 end-time Israelite evangelists, whose ministries will perfect the saints.

On September 23, 2017, the sign of Revelation 12 appears in the sky. By then, the sons of God have almost reached maturity. In all things they would have become almost like Jesus. By the first day of the Feast of Tabernacles 2017, which is day of a full moon, the adoption of the sons of God takes place. The sons of God transform from mortal to immortality. Forty days after, they are snatched up to heaven. They are the rulers of the coming new world.

March 28th....

Sometimes i worry i will miss it at the last moment.

I KNOW that day.

He told me about it in 1992.

Its so close now..and yet...i feel so..far.

That makes one of you two a liar.

Either he lied when he said nobody knows which makes him a fraud or youre lying or allowed yourself to be deceived.

Interesting response.

Its just that in 1992 i had a very vivid dream about March 28.

I was never told the year.

Just the day and the month.

I was not told what would happen in detail in the dream.

Only that it would be a day of no return and great joy.

And that nothing would ever be the same after.

I have pondered that dream for the last 2 decades.

And now here is a thread mentioning that date.

I have told no one until now.

And here it is.

Opening of the Seventh Seal

Re. 8:1 When he opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.

Seal 7 will very likely be opened in the seventh month of God's calendar. 1st of Tishrei, 5777 is on September 21st, 2017. The sign of Revelation 12 occurs on September 23rd, 2017. It is in this month of Tishrei that the adoption of the sons of God takes place. It is known that just as Jesus rose from the dead forty days before his ascension, the sons of God will transform from mortal to immortality forty days before the rapture. The adoption of the sons of God makes them to transform from mortal to immortality.

Mt. 25:6 “At midnight the cry rang out: `Here’s the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’

By full moon of the month of Tishrei 2017, the sons of God will transform from mortal to immortality. Full moon of the month of Tishrei happens to be the beginning of the Feast of Tabernacles. Forty days later, the rapture takes place.

Jn. 7:37 On the last and greatest day of the Feast, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink.
Jn. 7:38 Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him.”

So, because an Igbo man was in charge of Police Service Commission in 2002, that is why Oba Akiolu spoke the infamous "Igbos being thrown into the Lagoon"? Because of personal issue, a man occupying such a position nearly caused national malady, and most Igbos thought that it was a Yoruba vs. Igbo affair.

Achuwa1:
This is what Afoja's should be doing by coming to align with the Igbos to see if we could forgive them for all their sabotage against us from beginning.

Igbo kids on Nairaland should stop all these attacks against Yorubas on Nairaland. I recently had a chat with an Awka man who spent all the days of the Biafran war in Yorubaland; together with his parents and siblings. He told me that Yorubas did not allow any harm to come to any of the Igbos on their land. The Ooni of Ife and the then governor of Western Region were the masterminds behind this policy. Yoruba Christians saved the Igbos sojourning on their land. Midwesterners even asked the Yorubas to allow them to kill the Igbos in Yorubaland, as vengeance for the looting of banks in their enclave by Biafran soldiers. The Yorubas stoutly refused to allow them to touch any Igbo. It is not surprising that since the end of the Biafran war, God gave Yorubas leadership of evangelical Christianity in Nigeria.

There was an Amawbia man travelling to USA for his PhD program when the Nigeria military were carrying out pogrom against the Igbos. The plane was about to take off at Lagos Airport. Then a soldier got into the plane and spotted the Amawbia man as an Igbo. The soldier wanted to take the Amawbia man off the plane,but a Yoruba man seated near the Amawbia man spoke to that soldier and the soldier went out of the plane. Shortly after that, the plane took off.

THE TRUMPET by BILL BURNS:

The foundation of My government has been established in the hearts of My people. Now, My house will be built, and My kingdom will be established. Divine order will become the present work of My Spirit in this year. Order must be established in the lives of My people because disorder will govern the world and its systems. Make every effort to establish yourselves in My order. You can do this by staying in touch with Me, and by allowing My Spirit to guide you from day to day. Stay connected!

Mt. 25:6 “At midnight the cry rang out: `Here’s the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’

Mt. 27:50 And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit.
Mt. 27:51 At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook and the rocks split.
Mt. 27:52 The tombs broke open and the bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life.
Mt. 27:53 They came out of the tombs, and after Jesus’ resurrection they went into the holy city and appeared to many people.

1Co. 15:51 Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed —
1Co. 15:52 in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.

1Th. 4:16 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.
1Th. 4:17 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 for ever.

Notice that as soon as Jesus died on the cross, before his resurrection, the bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life. Of course, the Jews still raise the controversy about who and who that really saw these late holy people after they came back to life. The controversy supposes that the late holy people came back to life as mortals, which definitely was not the case. Since they came back to life as immortals, who and who was qualified to see them? The issue of qualification to see was addressed in this post: http://www.godlikeproductions.com/forum1/message3389006/pg1#60384527.

Just as the late holy ones came back to life even before the resurrection of Jesus Christ, the dead in Christ will also come back to life as immortals before the sons of God still alive are transformed from mortal to immortality. All the new immortals will ultimately ascend to heaven in the rapture. Not everyone on earth will be able to see the immortals both before and during the rapture. Unfortunately, the foolish virgins of Matthew 25 will see them very clearly. As my people the Igbos of Nigeria put it, the foolish virgins will suddenly see that the people they were hunting rabbits together with have now all caught elephants.

Where are the people who say that they see contradictions in the Bible? The real problem is that they do not see clearly. They are suffering from spiritual blindness.
