Jesus IS the Event Horizon!

"And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven. . ."

I shared in Event Horizon--Sign of the Son of man that just as Jesus' first coming was in two parts so His second coming will be in two parts, and it is my belief that there will be an event horizon sign seen at both events!

Here I am another year later and the Spirit of the Lord inspires me to look at my notes related to my first Event Horizon articles and I realize I left out a quote by Thomas Ice. In my search to find the source of this quote, I discovered some astounding information related to the sign of the Son of man in a PDF article posted by mayfairbible.org:

And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. - Matthew 24:30 KJV

2. The unmistakable sign - v.30 - "At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory.

Ever since v.4, Jesus has been answering the disciple’s questions. v.3 - "Tell us," they said, "when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?" Instead of naming a date, Jesus described the conditions and events of the Tribulation that would lead to His coming and the end of the age. This is how He answered the “WHEN” part of their question. In other words, when all these things happen, the time is near. But here in v. 30 Jesus answered the “WHAT” part of their question...what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?” Jesus said His second coming will be signaled by an unmistakable sign he called the sign of the Son of Man. The Greek language is helpful here. The subjective genitive translated the sign of the Son of Man tells us the sign is the Son of Man Himself. The sign that will be visible to everyone on earth will be the way Jesus comes to earth on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory. In other words, the sign of His coming will be so gloriously spectacular, no one will miss it. Though His feet will touch down on the Mt. of Olives, the glory of His return will be universally observed.

Arnold Fruchtenbaum explains... “As this sign is coupled with God’s glory, it is obviously the Shekinah Glory light that will signal the Second Coming of the Messiah...There will be a “total blackout with no light penetrating at all, followed by a sudden glorious, tremendous light that will disperse the blackness. This Shekinah light will be the sign of the Second Coming of the Messiah.” This brilliant display of light will be followed by the return of the Messiah Himself.”

Thomas Ice adds, “The sign will likely be some form of the Shekinah Glory that has been manifested throughout history. After all, it was the sign of Christ’s first coming...the Shekinah Glory...that flashed upon a darkened sky announcing His birth to the shepherds. It was the Shekinah Glory that led the Wise Men from the East. So it is that His sign, the sign of the Son of Man, will once again be His trademark, the Shekinah Glory Cloud.”

No human being has ever seen the full unveiled glory of God in Christ, and no one will ever see it until Christ returns. . . [Excerpt from pages 3 and 4 of mayfairbible.org/pdf]

My heart leapt and my eyes sprung tears as I read: “the sign is the Son of Man Himself”! If these commentaries are accurate, they confirm the conclusion I came to that “the tribes” referred to in Matthew 24:30 mourn because they recognize the sign of the Son of man for, THEY WITNESSED IT WHEN THE RAPTURE OCCURRED 7 YEARS PREVIOUSLY! Jesus Himself, Yahshuah Ha Moshiach, IS THE EVENT HORIZON!

“The sign of the Son of man” will be the overwhelming Shekinah glory surrounding Christ Jesus Himself when He breaks through the spiritual dimension to enter our earthly dimension. At the harpazo  or rapture of the Overcoming Church, His “sign” will most likely be extremely brief since our transformation and meeting Him in the air occurs in an atomos of time!

In a moment, in the twinkling [atomos] of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 1 Corinthians 15:52 KJV

For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up [harpazo] together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. - 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 KJV

This is how I imagine the catching away will happen. . .

First, the world (especially those who are watching for their Lord) will witness brilliant ribbons of color streaking across the sky. In a flash, all lights will go dark as the dead in Christ make the explosive transformation into eternal beings and rise to meet the event horizon point of no return—Jesus—in the air. In the “twinkling of an eye” those who are alive in Christ will follow them and “so shall we ever be with the Lord”.

Jesus IS THE EVENT HORIZON

He IS THE WAY

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. - John 14:6 KJV

He IS THE DOOR

I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. - John 10:9 KJV

The world will be left in utter darkness as the lights of the world disappear through The Door who is The Light of the World (Matthew 5:14; John 8:12).

Therefore, let us be patient, fellow watchers, and let us work while it is still day so that as many as possible can enter through The Door with us!

Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain. - James 5:7 KJV
