false prophet Mark Copfer is at it again

Here is what Messiah Yeshua says:

"But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only" (Mat. 24:36).

"Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come" (Mat. 24:42).

"Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh" (Mat. 24:44).


"Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh" (Mat. 25:13).

The five foolish virgins (Matthew chapter 25) thought they had time to go out and buy oil but thr bridegroom returned before they got back - before they thought he would.

Only a false prophet would tell G-d when He has to tell His Son when to go get His bride. There is another group of false prophets that claims the bible says the rapture will be in the spring on "pentecost" and they, too, have "scriptural proof" of it. True followers of Messiah Yeshua are watching for His return EACH AND EVERY DAY as He commanded.

Luke 12:40 Be ye also ready: for in an hour that ye think not the Son of man cometh.

Mark Copfer (22 Sep 2008) "Re:Rosh Hoshanah bandwagon"
We on that bandwagon seem to be in tune to what the biblical scriptures teach. There is no denying that. If the rapture does not happen on this Rosh Hashanah, then we can look forward to the next Rosh Hashanah. But according to Pastor Mark Biltz, NASA, Pastor Steve Hadley, all signs in the stars, moon, sun,sky, and "especially" Psalms 108, point to 2008 for the rapture of the Church. I do not think anybody is going to be hurt or injured if the rapture does not occur "this" Rosh Hashanah. Those of "us" on this bandwagon are much stronger than that. The scriptures point to the Rosh Hashanah fulfillment at the Rapture of the Church.. Scriptures point to the Wedding of the Church to the Messiah on Rosh Hashanah. Scriptures point to the Bema Judgement Seat of Christ during the 70th week, the tribulation week here on earth. And finally, 2 Peter 3:4, there are the ones in doubt, as Christ predicted in the scriptures, that would come in the last days, saying, where is the promise of his coming ? This seems to point to what you are saying Rick. And then you said this appauling statement: Rosh Hashanah Rapture is NOT guarenteed by God. Are you calling the biblical scriptures a lie ???I can show you proof as plain as day in the bible, that says that the catching away, (Rapture) occurs at the sounding of the Last Trump. I can also prove to you, which I have many times before, that the Last Trump is sounded during Rosh Hashanah This is what the bible says. Are you denying this ?? Well here is a little lesson. the shofar blown on Rosh HaShanah is known as the last trump, which Rav Sha'ul (the apostle Paul) mentioned in First Thessalonians 4:16-17. At this time, the believers in the Messiah who are righteous (tzaddikim) according to Yom HaDin (the Day of Judgment) will escape the tribulation (Chevlai shel Mashiach) on earth and will be taken to Heaven in the rapture (natzal) along with the righteous who had died before this time. What happens to the believers in the Messiah when they are taken to Heaven at this time? One of the events that will take place is the coronation of the Messiah Yeshua as King, which will happen in Heaven (Revelation 5). Yeshua, who had come to earth during His first coming to play the role of the suffering Messiah, Messiah ben Joseph (Yosef), will be crowned as King over all the earth in preparation for His coming back to earth to reign as King Messiah (Messiah ben David) during the Messianic age, the Millennium, or in Hebrew eschatology, the Athid Lavo (Revelation 19:16; 20:4).Another lesson is the Wedding of the Messiah to the Church on Rosh Hashanah... Please tell me if you could, how can the rapture occur at any other time, if the Wedding of the Messiah to his Church, proven biblically, is on Rosh Hashanah ???? How do you get around that ????The Bible is a marriage covenant. Both the Tanach (Old Testament) and the Brit Hadashah (New Testament) describe how G-d through the Mashiach (Messiah), the Bridegroom, is in the process of marrying His bride, the believers in Him who will ultimately live and dwell with Him forever.
G-d ordained and established marriage and its divine sanctity in the Torah, the very first book of the Bible, Genesis (Bereishit), when He brought Adam and Eve together to become one flesh (Genesis 2:21-24). In doing so, we have a vivid foreshadowing of the Messiah being married to those who would believe upon Him. Let's examine this closer.
Adam is a type of the Messiah Yeshua. Adam was made after the likeness of Yeshua (Romans 5:14). Yeshua (Jesus) was made in the likeness of Adam (Philippians 2:8). In fact, Yeshua is called the last Adam (1 Corinthians 15:45-47). In Genesis 2:21, G-d had a deep sleep fall upon Adam. Sleep is synonymous with death (Daniel 12:2; John [Yochanan] 11:11-14; 1 Corinthians 15:51-54; Ephesians 5:14). The deep sleep that G-d caused to fall upon Adam is a picture of the crucifixion and death of Yeshua, as Messiah ben Joseph. G-d brought a deep sleep upon Adam so He could take a rib from the side of his flesh. This required the shedding of blood. This is a picture of Yeshua who was pierced in the side of His flesh, shedding His own blood when He hung on the tree (John [Yochanan] 19:34).
From the rib of Adam, G-d made Eve. Likewise, by the death of Yeshua and faith (emunah) in Him, G-d established the assembly of believers known in Hebrew as the kehilat. The believers in the Messiah, His bride, become wedded to Him by faith (emunah). This marriage can be seen in the Tanach (Old Testament) as well as in Jeremiah 23:5-6, as it is written, .... this is His name whereby He shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS" (Jeremiah [Yermiyahu] 23:6). In Jeremiah 33:15-16, it is written, "...this is the name wherewith she shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS" (Jeremiah [Yermiyahu] 33:16). So from these passages in Jeremiah, we can see that a wedding is taking place. Therefore, by accepting, trusting, and believing in the Messiah, the bride of Messiah, His followers, become one with Him. These people would include both Jew and non-Jews who have lived since Adam and would include Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, David, and Solomon as well as the prophets.
So, the bottom line, is YES, God does Guarentee in his scriptures, proven in every living bible, that the Rapture, and the Wedding of the Messiah to his Church, occurs on, and during Rosh Hashanah.
