Ezra's Eagle & Israel-Hamas War Update

I have been re-reading some of your Revelation book and realized that you have been saying the half hour of silence is upon us. Would you please comment in your next video about whether the final eclipse in April could represent the 4th angel sounding and an eclipse? The next eclipse after that is in 2027, wouldn't that be too late for the 1/2 hour to be over?

[@annlong1426]

I LOVE your Book of Enoch! You blow my mind on almost every page. If anyone is open-minded and loves thinking in possibilities that are “out-of-this-world”, this book checks all the boxes.

[@allisonhunt1134]

Where do you buy this book?

[@Wasatch_Sasquatch]

I don’t know anything about this book but should we not keep it in context…it’s not the latest NYT best selling novel, nor is it even a novel.

[@ttschrock7126]

Thank you for this message. I was pretty excited to see this come across my KZbin. Over many months, I have considered Ezra's Eagle many times and wondered how it was going to play out if it is a true prophecy. I know tomorrow --- I start over again studying these things again and really look forward to BOM this year. Thank you for being brave, because many will not like this message. I have your Enoch book and I love it. It is a good book, as well as the others. There are things said that ring true to my heart, and things I need to pray about. But (like you), it is a very exciting time. Our world is literally starting to weave to and fro - the wickedness is intense. Good is evil and evil is good. Just as the prophets have warned. I am so grateful for the comfort and understanding that our scriptures bring. God Bless you for your work, your time, and these videos. I know it must be hard to speak out - but you do it - and I am grateful you did because I have often wondered what you thought about current events in association with Ezra. I just want you to know that I know that God lives, and that Jesus Christ is our Savior and King of Kings. I love Him and will continue to reach towards Him in all that I do - with prayers in our hearts that we will stay strong, faithful, and calm. I know that this earth is His and that because of Him, we are saved through His grace.

[@bfolker]

I think everyone, including the 2034 Utah Olympic Bid Committee, are going to be amazed at how quickly all of this will come to pass. We are talking about the next 10-11 years is all, before the Lamb will lie down with the Lion. Oh Happy Thought!

[@jenniferbickerstaff2893]

My grandfather was a messianic jew. My mom was converted to the lds church at 19 and she was raised as a Protestant because of her mother. I learned a lot from my grandfather while he was still alive. I am so grateful that God has allowed his people to come to the knowledge of Jesus Christ their savior. I hope these millenials can bring more Jewish people to the knowledge of the truth of their savior

[@tassiegirl50]

So excited to read you’re writing Enoch part 2!!! Hubby has read each of your books 3 x’s so far, it’s transformed the way he reads & understands the scriptures. We’ve also found the hymns have deeper meaning for us. Thankyou for all the time, effort & study you put in & encourage us to do the same it’s appreciated all the way to Tasmania….🌿💚🌿💚🌿💚🌿💚

Thanks Micheal, your insights are so helpful. Please keep them coming and know that you have friends out here in these crazy times.

[@annaharvey1627]

Hello Michael, been missing you, so glad to see you. Love all your books, can't wait for the 2nd edition of Book of Enoch. So much wonderful information. You have totally inspired me to endure to the end and study the word, How Blessed we are to be living in these times. Many Blessings to you and your family. How great is our God. Love from Coffs Harbour Australia.

[@1Yongen]

Hello Michael, having read all your books multiple times and listened to all of your videos also multiple times has awakened in me a great awe for the covenants of the Lord with the House of Israel. Words cannot express the gratitude I feel for your wonderful effort and spirit in which you have brought these amazing covenants to the forefront of my mind. Thank You. Regarding the Book of Revelation, I would appreciate your insights as to the timing of the out pouring of the plagues described by John in relation to the reign, so to speak, of the Anti Christ. It seems to me that they occur close to the end before Armageddon. So grateful to you for waking us up and emphasizing the need to study these things for ourselves. What a blessing to be doing it with your thoughtful guidance and spirit. Thank you. It would be great to visit with you sometime in the future. God bless you and your family.

[@lindamartinez7006]

There is no one person anti christ that is going to reign . Our church does not teach that . Anti Christa is what the Bible says . Anyone or any institution that says Christ did not come in the flesh . Anti christ has already been here since Adam 😊

I appreciate your knowledge and your willingness to share with us so that we may also know. Your words have increased my desire to read more and learn for myself as well. Thank you so much!

Im excited to share this with my husband. We're on the last chapter of your book : John the Beloved's Book of Revelations. We take turns reading your books, aloud together. Its very sweet , very precious time spent together. Thank you Bro. Rush for your incredible gifts to us Saints. 😊 🎉 📚

[@sandykelly9982]

All I can say is WOW!! You make this all so plain and easly understand. It's sometimes scary but also wonderful. Thank you Thank you!

[@gegenhalten4993]

Michael, Thank you for this wonderful video and of course your amazing books. I wonder if you would be able to line up the seals and trumpets from revelation with the events of EE. Also please consider having a presentation on another venue where we can talk about the crazy stuff from your books, I have so many questions. Thanks

[@michelleedwardsjorgensen1910]

As always your study and understanding of the scriptures are a light to the world! Thank you for your efforts! Love all your books and still working through the latest. By the way this all rings true to me. And i totally agree with you. Thanks again!

[@lasinajensen4577]

I don’t stick my head in the sand on what I’m seeing in headlines or what I’m seeing in general. My mind is constantly drawing parallels to what I know and when I study the scriptures I see today’s events in the scriptures as well. I’m not afraid to see it. I had an extremely traumatic and challenging childhood. By the time I had met the missionaries at age 18, I had lifetimes with all that I had experienced. I feel it’s a blessing because the Lord has given me eyes to be willing to see through all of my growth and repentance over the last couple of decades or so. It’s not easy to see and watch, but I can see it and call it out.

Regarding the Come Follow Me for Revelations - I'm a Gospel Doctrine teacher for adults and the thing I feel like is important and helpful to make sense is the timeline. I've read your book on John the Revelator and maybe I just need to go through it again but if there was some resource/printout or slide you could provide that explains the timeline that would be helpful. The problem specifically is that John does some explaining of things, jumps to a different topic, goes back in time and explains things again. So, that would be most helpful, I feel. Thank you for your work and testimony!

This is the Lesson I have been needing for a very long time. THANKYOU so much for your time and study and teaching spirit

[@followersofjesuschrist7536]

Thank you for your earnest efforts to understand the scriptures and explain your well thought-out explanations so that we might be uplifted and inspired to grasp the time in which we live. This is the first time I've written to you in response to one of your videos so I'm not sure how amenable you are to diverse opinions. I would hope that you might respond and keep this post up so that others might analyze what is written here. One of the points you made in your video was to discount the Hamas attack as the fulfillment of Daniel's prophecy. You stated that it was actually 1291 days instead of 1290. Yet, if you count the days from the first day that the temple ordinances ceased (March 26, 2020) and not from the date the closures were announced (a day that temple ordinances occurred until closing), October 7, is exactly 1290 days from when they ceased. If you like to find patterns, March 26, 2020 was also exactly 200 years to the very day that Joseph Smith received his first vision (The first of several appearances that would lead up to Christ's final Second Coming to all the world). Most LDS scholars now having looked at the weather patterns in Palmyra/Manchester, New York found that there were few beautiful, clear mornings early in the Spring of 1820. However, that day was one of less than a handful of those, and it happened to be on a Sunday, when religious farmers would have observed the day of rest. Thus, this would be the most likely time that Joseph would have had a break long enough from his chores in order to go to the grove and pray vocally. There are two other things in Daniel 12 that would need to come to bear in order to determine if what Daniel was trying to say in Dan. 12: 11, referred to the Hamas terrorists and if that was part of "the abomination that maketh desolate set up" (I'll get to the abomination of desolation soon) First, in verse 12 he said, "12 Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days. (November 21, 2023) What would have happened on that day that would have been enough for Daniel to make note? This was the last day that any more of the hostages captured on October 7th would need to worry about having their lives end at the hands of Hamas. On November 21, Israel and Hamas had stated that they were concluding a temporary cease fire agreement. If you listened to the news on that day, that is what was widely reported. It was officially signed on November 22, but November 21 was the last day these hostages had to worry about being killed. Just days before when the IDF searched the tunnels under the hospital, they discovered recent corpses of some of the hostages taken. They were killed as Hamas was escaping. Now let's address the abomination of desolation. Yes. Absolutely, the battle of Armageddon will be an abomination of desolation. We know that 70 AD represented one of the Abominations of Desolation. It took nearly 5 months to be completed. We also know that the wars leading to the Battle of Armageddon represents another one. Yet, we shouldn't think in terms that the Battle itself is the only abomination of desolation. And we shouldn't have a closed off mindset that there are only two that the scriptures ever reference. For example, in the Doctrine & Covenants 84:114 & 117, it says, "Nevertheless, let the bishop go unto the city of New York, also to the city of Albany, and also to the city of Boston, and warn the people of those cities with the sound of the gospel, with a loud voice, of the desolation and utter abolishment which await them if they do reject these things. And verily I say unto you, the rest of my servants, go ye forth as your circumstances shall permit, in your several callings, unto the great and notable cities and villages, reproving the world in righteousness of all their unrighteous and ungodly deeds, setting forth clearly and understandingly the desolation of abomination in the last days." From these verses it appears that there could be several desolations due to abominations that will be set up in the last days. If you do a search in the scriptures on "Abomination", you can see a pattern that whenever an abomination is brought up it refers to something that is detestable or abhorrent in God's sight. Thus we can't make the assumption that any time you see ""the abomination that maketh desolate" or "the abomination of desolation" that it only references those two events. Now to bring it all in. This war will ultimately lead to the Battle of Armageddon. The Hamas attack was only the beginning. Do the scriptures support that? Yes. In the same Chapter of Daniel (12), he spoke about Michael (Adam) when he comes to save his people. Daniel described a council earlier in Chapter 7 referencing Adam-ondi-Ahman in great detail. As he often did, he expands upon earlier visions in a later chapter to give greater understanding to something he said earlier. (The four kingdoms originally mentioned from Nebuchadnezzar's dream is one example where he references it in Chapter 11) It is a possibility that he's doing this in Chapter 12 referencing Michael. Here, he mentions that Michael will stand during a time of trouble such as never had been seen before. At that time Israel will be delivered by him and every one will be found written in the book (Also mentioned in Chapter 7). He then spoke of the many who had died would be raised, some to everlasting life and some to shame and contempt. The Doctrine and Covenants repeats this same scenario of the Saints rising from the four corners of the earth and the dead being resurrected a few times (D&C 29:13, 43:18, 45:45, & 88: 96-98). This event is found in conjunction with Christ's appearances to Adam-ondi-Ahman and His appearance at the Mount of Olives. But it was Daniel who wanted to know when all of this would culminate (Dan. 12:8). According to Daniel, the resurrection event would take place at 3 1/2 units of time after the beginning of this abomination that would make desolate (Daniel 12:6 "How long shall it be to the end of these wonders? Daniel 12:7 And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.”) Time + Times + 1/2 a Time = 3.5 units. Thus, the raising of the dead would occur 3 1/2 units of time after this abomination that will leave desolate would take place. Many believe this to be 3 1/2 years. It very well may be. And in Daniel 9, he specifies that the closing and reopening of the temples would take place in the last week of his 490 year prophesy. If you did the calculations for this then you would discover that the seven-year period would go from 2020 through 2027. Does this coincide with the Ezra's Eagle prophesy then? Yes. If the 3 1/2 units of time is truly 3 1/2 years from when Hamas began their abomination that left 1400 Jews desolate, that brings us to March 20, 2027. But if the unit of time is different (which it could be*) Then the battle of Armageddon would commence later on. Nonetheless it would all point back to when Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, 2023. This gives ample time for all the things that Ezra spoke about to be fulfilled over the next few years as well. I hope that this might give another perspective that might give you something to study further, and most importantly - to pray about. The scriptures all fit in together, but we need to remain open minded so that we don't miss out on a new granule of insight we might not have considered before. * Time + Times + 1/2 a Time = 3.5 units is one-half of 7. 7 scripturally means completeness and fulfillment. 1/2 of that (3 1/2) in all scripture refers to incompleteness. It is also a time when Satan would have power before the Lord finishes His perfect work or judgment.

Thank you very much sir. I appreciate it for many years now I have always thought that the second coming of Jesus Christ would be in the spring of 2034...2000 years after his crucifixion… And every day as events unfold the picture becomes more focused. People need to talk to their children and prepare young people with a deep understanding of the 10 Commandments, especially the first commandment, and understand that the first commandment that the Lord gave is reciprocated from him to us… He loves us with all his heart, my mind and strength, and will provide an escape route and watch out for interest if we stay on the covenant path

I love this and agree 100% it will calm down again because there needs to be a “covenant” that brings stability there while Joseph struggles here and that the Assyrian then stabs Israel in the back over when he gets pushed out of USA as he turns against them.

@officialmichaelbrush I had not noticed this connection until you brought it up. As it so turns out, you are correct that the temple closures were announced on the 25th however the church did not close until the 26th. For verification, I actually went back and looked at the post on the lds website and I’m pasting it here (emphasis added) for clarification : “ Dear Brothers and Sisters, After careful and prayerful consideration, and with a desire to be responsible global citizens, we have decided to suspend all temple activity Churchwide ***at the end of the day*** on March 25, 2020. ” So really the first day of closure was the 26th! Making it truly 1290 days!

[@michaelbrazier8626]

Hi Michael and thank you for all your work. A concern I have is that you say that those who won’t fight must flee to America but Prophets have said that we should gather to our own Stakes. I do so love all your work, thank you again.

[@officialmichaelbrush]

That has been true in the past. It will not be true in the future. There are many scriptures that speak of the miraculous gathering that will take place in the last days. Two will be in a field one will be taken, the other will be left. Two will be in a bed, one will be taken, the other will be left. Two will be a the flour mill, one will be taken the other will be left. The world considers these passages to speak about a rapture event. What they are really speaking of is the miraculous gathering of Israel to Zion.

[@profitox9103]

With Church building so many temples all over the world, I don't know how this fits into gathering to America and leaving all those.temples. is it like the pioneers with the Nauvoo temple where they wanted to finish it just to get the endowment of power even thoug they knew they were leaving the temple behind? Any thoughts on this?

[@chenningfeld7]

I have a thought. I have heard those pioneers needed their endowments to better endure the hardships ahead and strengthen their covenants with the Lord in light of our next estate. Likewise now temple buildings may have short time of existence due to expected tumult, but the believers of those areas do need the endowed powers and to strengthen their covenants before mass deaths are likely to occur in the coming years. Listen to the Holy Ghost to receive your own confirmation

[@Jensartandfarmstudio]

In ancient times, God took the righteous city of Zion to Himself.12 [The scriptural record states simply, “It came to pass that Zion was not, for God received it up into his own bosom” Moses 7:69 By contrast, in the last days a new Zion will receive the Lord at His return. [God declared: “And righteousness will I send down out of heaven; and truth will I send forth out of the earth, to bear testimony of mine Only Begotten; his resurrection from the dead; yea, and also the resurrection of all men; and righteousness and truth will I cause to sweep the earth as with a flood, to gather out mine elect from the four quarters of the earth, unto a place which I shall prepare, an Holy City, that my people may gird up their loins, and be looking forth for the time of my coming; for there shall be my tabernacle, and it shall be called Zion, a New Jerusalem. … And for the space of a thousand years the earth shall rest” Moses 7:62, 64 Zion is the pure in heart, a people of one heart and one mind, dwelling in righteousness with no poor among them.14 [See Doctrine and Covenants 97:21 Moses 7:18 The Prophet Joseph Smith stated, “We ought to have the building up of Zion as our greatest object.” We build up Zion in our homes, wards, branches, and stakes through unity, godliness, and charity.16 [See D. Todd Christofferson, “Come to Zion,” Ensign or Liahona, Nov. 2008, 37-40.] We must acknowledge that the building up of Zion occurs in tumultuous times-“a day of wrath, a day of burning, a day of desolation, of weeping, of mourning, and of lamentation; and as a whirlwind it shall come upon all the face of the earth, saith the Lord.”17 Doctrine and Covenants 112:24 Thus, the gathering into stakes becomes “for a defense, and for a refuge from the storm, and from wrath when it shall be poured out without mixture upon the whole earth.” D. Todd Christofferson, "Preparing for the Lord's Return," April 2019 General Conference.

[@rncondie]

Thanks Michael. Finished Daniel 11 for the second time last night and Remnant Shall return last week and Enoch last month. I must admit the Watchers, The possible way the 10 Tribes returns has caused me to really do some pondering. I think logically. I have always wondered how the New Jerusalem can be built so quickly and be in place before Armageddon. After reading in Ether it comes down from heaven that helps me piece together a logical time frame.

[@NPE2024]

Thanks for posting again. I have read all of your books two times and counting. Great material, and as true (in my opinion) as the sky is blue. I have a question for you. I watched an interesting video by person not a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. He proposed a theory I had never heard before regarding the last days and if it were true it would align fascinatingly perfect with the other events that will be landing in 2024. It also aligns with what you have taught that nearly everything in the scriptures discussing events of their day also apply to our day. Also, you have taught that there is a relationship between the USA and Egypt in the scriptures, ie Egypt being likened to the USA. In Genesis 15:13-14 it states that a group of the people of Israel will be help in captivity or slavery for 400 years. Egypt kept the Israelites for about 400 years and this theory states that it is also referencing the 400 years since slavery began in the USA. He connection to Revelations is the 2024 eclipse. He says the Tav in 2024 is a mark of judgement for the 400 years of American slavery. Thanks

Thank you Michael! You mentioned you are soliciting requests for inputs into a Book of Revelation CFM type video you'll produce in the next week or 2. I would love to see you weave back in your thoughts about the return of Israel, destruction of the whore of Babylon, and culmination of certain events (ie, appearance and purpose of Ships of Chittim) you mentioned in this video, including what has to happen before the end of Jan 2025 (ie, inauguration time) - and how it connects to the BOR events you'll discuss. That probably sounds so random but I hope in your wisdom it makes sense and you can connect this video to the upcoming BOR one you've pledged to produce and release shortly. There's a lot to happen in the next 13 months, it sounds like. God bless you & your efforts!

[@jaredite8388]

It was not 1291 days after the temples were closed, it was exactly 1290 days, you counted the day of the closure as one day. You are supposed to count the days after the closure of the temples, so that if temples were closed on 25 march 2020, you need to start the count from march 26. Then it is exactly 1290 days.

[@stewarthousehold]

Additionally Daniel 12 says setup the events that lead to the abomination that maketh desolate not the actual event.

[@MommaCrissa]

Also, Oct 7th is Israel time. USA is 9 hours ahead in Utah. So it started on Oct. 6th. I heard about it that night (I live in Utah).

Read Michael’s books and stop reading Gileadi’s.

[@runmtn1]

@@knelson3326 so will there not be a Davidic Servant?

[@knelson3326]

It appears there will be but Gileadi thinks almost everything in Isaiah is DS prophecy. He has made some errors so I don’t trust him. Michael’s approach is much more balanced. The DS will be involved in the restoration of the temple in Jerusalem but we know little else for sure. Michael covers that in his books.

[@jimjone]

Not approximately, exactly 1290 days, the temples were closed 3/25, not 3/26. Also it specifically says the AoD is "set up", not accomplished. I believe this describes a planning period.

[@bigfatsinger]

I agree, I see so many "gospel scholars " trying to dismiss this , but they are always overlooking a few key things like no one is claiming this IS the AoD, in 1290 days, but it is setup in 1290 days. In this video he actually outlined how this is setting up the AoD scenerio.

[@officialmichaelbrush]

The church announced on 3/13/2020 that as of 3/25/2020 all temples would be closed. Hamas attacked Israel on 10/7/2023 this is exactly 1,291 days. You can do the math in Excel which allows you to calculate the number of days between dates. It is still very interesting. I'm just saying, don't hang your testimony on this calculation.

[@Mammafly]

@@officialmichaelbrushI believe it really was exactly 1290 days, we had it marked and were waiting to see what would happen. And actually March 25, 2020 was the last day the temples were open. Which means the daily sacrifice would’ve be “taken away” starting on the 26th. Plus there is the whole 9 hour difference to consider between time zones.

[@robertpullis]

Food for thought… those 1290 days are Hebrew days (sundown begins a new day) and not our day that begins at 12:01 am. That might make a difference. Also, it may all be just a coincidence or some folks trying to force their “newspaper headline eschatology” onto recent events. Regardless, thanks for the lessons and encouragement, Michael. Keep ‘em coming!

[@Mammafly]

⁠​⁠@@officialmichaelbrushhave you ever considered why Daniel 12:11 specifies the abomination of desolation is “set up” as opposed to other scriptures about the abomination of desolation? It occurred to me when I watched the reports about Oct 7th and the following antisemitic protests that it all felt “like a set up.” That there was no real way for Israel to come out unscathed. And that the events of Oct 7th could only be described as an “abomination.” These thoughts made me wonder if my understanding of the abomination of desolation was been somewhat narrow. That the scriptures that describe it may possibly be describing more than one event that leads to “the” abomination. I’m curious for your thoughtful response about this idea?

[@deniseseda8516]

On your next podcast would you mind discussing more of the role of the davidic servant and the part he will play during the tribulations? Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@MommaCrissa]

I agree, I would like to know Michael's thoughts on this and the two prophets. I've read the May 1972 Ensign, "The Future of the Holy Land", many times, but I still need more. I constantly am trying to get things in order and just right. I'd like to know if AI will read more ancient texts and scrolls and we find out some truths before the tribes get here so that we can have more understanding.

[@mikemiller8825]

It is awesome how as we read your books the next thing you talk about- has already come into our minds! Great power in your words, thank you! Question reguarding the Book of Revelations, I am curious who you think the Elders are that look down at John as he is weeping and worried for the loss of mankind just before Christ takes the book (assignment) from Heavenly Father. I have my ideas but curious to know yours, possibly they could be from Adam but maybe not.

[@annecox4068]

I would love to hear your thoughts on the different wording of when the Daily sacrifice is taken and abomination of desolation "set up" in Daniel 12 versus daily sacrifice taken (another temple closer) and abomination of desolation being "placed" in Daniel 11. I have wondered about the possibility if two separate daily sacrifice removal and one having a set up (October 7th deal) versus another time where it is actually put into motion. I don't think October 7th is a coincidence. You couldn't have calculated 1290 days and have something happen like Jews attacked and discount that it wasn't significant. This theory that daily sacrifice taken being linked to our Latter Day Saint temples, how would they be linked to Israel? When October 7th happened it appeared to just be affecting Israel and not the Latter Day Saints. It almost seems like wires are crossed, however, Elijah coming to the Kirtland Temple while the Jews were setting a place for him at their table seems to show a connection. I wonder if October 7th really is a significant time, but only as far as the abomination of desolation is "set up" and not actually unleashed yet. The 1335th in Daniel 12, the blessed day may have been November 21st 2023. We saw a temporary cease fire, which could turn out to be significant. This 1335th day could also be May 4th 2027, the Haulocaust Memorial day. I don't think this one is as likely, but I think it's interesting. Daniel 8 also sheds some light on this. If October 7th is really the 1290th day, could this signal another 3 1/2 years to the 2300th (July 12, 2026) day when Israel actually experiences the abomination of desolation? If this is the case, could the 2 witnesses be in Israel now and what evidences do we see/ look for that they may be there? Could this also mean the antiChrist is ALREADY in power and has been for a hot minute? Also, I can't help but get the feeling that something every significant happened on March 26th 2020, the day the temples closed. The pattern is that the First Vision took place on that date, according to the work of John Pratt on Enochs calendar, and the Kirkland Temple was also dedicated on that date. It's interesting that the temples closed EXACTLY 200 years from the first vision! Interestingly, important things happened directly after the Kirkland temple was dedicated. One week later, Christ and the other prophets appeared in the Kirkland temple. In our day, don't you think it's curious that we have a Solemn Assembly and Hosanna shout just a week later, which is similar timing to what happened the week after the Kirtland Temple dedication? Seems like there may have been something significant to have happened for the Adversary to shut down temple, maybe something like Christ coming to his temple? What do you think?

[@Mammafly]

Wow. This is really insightful. Thank you for your thoughts.

[@davidk4869]

Great thoughts.

[@MommaCrissa]

Possibly and additionally, if we look at the 200 years (plus 3.5 years) before Nov 20th pm (Nov 21st am Israel time) 400 years before is the Pilgrim Thanksgiving day with Seed of Joseph (ties crossed or transfer of new time to begin) (compared to full 400 years just like Nephites had before full destruction). This is if you look at the 45 additional days mark. So to mark the next 3.5 years. (Someone else could probably explain it better.)

[@grenjeloshrdedcart7818]

Wires crossed....the restored church is mainly the tribe of Ephraim, so the connection is through Jacob/Israel to Judah. The children of light can make the numerical connection to not be overtaken as by a thief....keep oil in the lamp! 1Thes: 5 1 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. 2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. 3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. 4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. 5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.

With the Democratic convention following the Republican convention and ending on August 22, 2024, that means that we will have two top candidates who each hope or think to become president. So the Eagle head will likely take over sometime between that date and inauguration day.

[@MommaCrissa]

Or, if your like me (we could see in a short time if I'm right) I believe Donald Trump ended his ability to do much on March 11, 2020 when the National Emergency was signed. This means FEMA working with governors were now in charge. Did you notice he didn't seem to have much power. He talked to governs on conference calls and everyday at the daily briefings he was always saying, ask the governors, or if the governors do it...etc. So, it could be sometime before mid March! Other thought...even though Mike Johnson seems like a great Speaker of the House, although if something happened where he was to take over (speaker is the head of the eagle if your read the 1000 year leap by Cleon Skousen), then he would most definitely head to war with Iran to support Israel. He REALLY supports Israel, so he wouldn't be fighting against them, but being (as it seems) a hard core Christian to defend Israel at all costs...he doesn't know what he doesn't know. To me, it will just "look like" what anyone else in his shoes would do, BUT the world would most certainly be at its worst and be reigning with more terror than ever before (Ezra's Eagle reference). I guess we'll see....whichever way, not much time, but if before March that's really short!
