"As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. ..." (Ezekiel 1:28)
He came to Ezekiel in a rain cloud |

"And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe" (Rev 14:15)
The rain cloud comes to harvest |

"And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle" (Revelation 14:14)
He is coming in latter-rain clouds. Why else would He refer to clouds? |

"... he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. ... this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven" (Acts 1:9, 11)
He left in a cloud, and so shall He return |

"Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven" (Matthew 26:64)
He is coming in the clouds of the latter rain |

The fact that the latter rain IS the Second Coming of the Lord (and not just a pre-"Rapture" last hurrah for the Church) is reinforced by the Lord's constant reference to Him coming "in the clouds" |

As all of this happens, the "elements of the Earth" shall be burnt, meaning that the fundamental paradigms that the pastoral Church and the soul-centred world operate under will be exposed as rubbish and destroyed. Many deemed great now shall be shamed. |

Without being cajoled into repeating the sinner's prayer, they will cry out for salvation and seek after the One they know "is here", and they will not only be saved from hell but grow as spirit beings, manifesting His Glory in their physical bodies |

As the Presence of God expands across the atmosphere of the Earth through His faithful believers, people will suddenly become aware that "He is here", and they will realise that the Lord Yeshua has indeed returned. |

"For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea" (Habakkuk 2:14)
The waters of Habakkuk 2:14 are the waters of the latter rain |

"Woe to him that buildeth a town with blood, and stablisheth a city by iniquity! Behold, is it not of the LORD of hosts that the people shall labour in the very fire, and the people shall weary themselves for very vanity?" (Habakkuk 2:12-13) |

The latter rain will be an ever expansive manifestation of God's Presence across the Earth, enveloping every aspect of human existence, not a "last hurrah" for pastors and their churches before some magical escape from an enemy that they cannot defeat |
| Latter rain |
Second coming |
1765253340 |
The latter rain will be about God's takeover of the spiritual atmosphere of the Earth through His faithful people, bringing destruction upon Church's pastoral system and upon the dominion of the soul over the spirit in all the affairs of men |
| Latter rain |
Second coming |
1765253160 |
The latter rain revival will not be about "localised" manifestations of God's Presence around church buildings where the rest of the world will be able to continue being ruled by the soul and the enemy as if nothing was happening |
| Latter rain |
Second coming |
1765252980 |
The latter rain revival will not be about birthing millions of "baby" souls via the salvation prayer who then never grow into the fullness of their Spirit calling, trapped in the net of a pastoral system that caters to soul needs and not to the Spirit |
| Latter rain |

To the Church's pastors "spreading God's Kingdom" is little more than saving souls from hell & filling church pews; they refuse to accept that God's Kingdom is about Him exerting sovereignty over the Earth & humans growing into the fullness of His Glory |
| Latter rain |

1765251600 |
The Church's soulish pastors see this "end-time revival" as a final vindication of the Church and its pastoral system, not as a way through which God's judgements take over the spiritual atmosphere of the Earth (Psalm 105:7) & He asserts His Kingship |
| Latter rain |
Second coming |
1765251300 |
When the Church's soulish pastors speak of an "end-time revival", they think of it as their "last hurrah" before a sudden "rapture", followed by some great upheaval where the "anti-Christ" takes over the world and tyrannises everyone |

Hence, the Lord is saying in Hosea 6:3 that His Second Coming IS the latter rain, not something that happens AFTER the latter rain |
| Latter rain |

1765250460 |
Notice that the Lord is saying in Hosea 6:3 that He is coming unto us, unto the Earth, as the rain, as the latter rain and former rain (with the latter rain mentioned 1st, even though it happens last) |

The Lord has declared the following:
"Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the LORD: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth" (Hosea 6:3) |

This is the final state of the 67th-book believers who operate in the "666" pastoral spirit of the Church:
"And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded." (Acts 19:16) |
| 666 spirit |
Iesous |
1764817260 |
Like the sons of Sceva, these "666" believers actually think they are doing "God's work", but they are doing it to expand their names and their kingdoms, not God's Kingship, which is why they have so little power against the enemy, never able to see how soulishly weak they are. |
| 666 spirit |
Iesous |
1764816960 |
In short, the fact that the 666th appearance of "Iesous" is in Acts 19:13 emphasises how the antiChrist spirit is not strongest in "secular, atheistic pagans". Instead, it is strongest in reputable "Christians" doing spiritual things in God's name but under a pastoral mindset. |
| 666 spirit |
Iesous |
1764816630 |
Hence, they point to those with humanly recognisable "credentials". These are the people who carry the 666 spirit of anti-Christ and who seek to eternalise the matriarchal Church system, enlarging their own little ministry kingdoms rather than the Kingdom of God on Earth. |
| 666 spirit |
Iesous |
1764816600 |
Notice that the believers of Acts 19:13-15 were Jews and sons of a chief of the priests, meaning that they were people of "spiritual hierarchy", not "unclean pagans" with no "spiritual pedigree". |

"And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, and bear your whoredoms, until your carcases be wasted in the wilderness" (Numbers 14:33)
The word "wander" was actually translated from the Hebrew word "ra'a" meaning "pastor/shepherd". |
| 666 spirit |
Iesous |
1764816420 |
Notice how Acts 19:13-15 speaks of "vagabond", i.e.- spiritually wandering people who use the name of Yeshua without truly knowing Him. This points to the Church system, whose pastors have God's people soulishly wandering in circles w/o allowing them to grow as spirit beings. |

The next 2 verses after Acts 19:13 say the following:
"And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the priests, which did so. And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?" (Acts 19:14-15) |

In the recent audio word shamah-elim.info/audio-words.ht… , we share how the spirit of anti-Christ rises when this "67th book" (whatever form it may take) is empowered by believers, thereby committing what God sees as the "abomination of desolation", for it drives His Spirit away. |
| 666 spirit |
Iesous |
1764815880 |
Another literal example of a "67th book" is the "book of mor(m)on", though it must be said that the 67th book the spirit of anti-Christ stands upon can take many non-literal forms, as when believers unquestioningly swallow up their pastors' teachings as if it was "holy Scripture" |
| 666 spirit |
Iesous |
1764815640 |
A literal example of a "67th book" is when American believers elevate the U.S. Constitution to the level of Scripture, treating it as if it was the 67th book of the Bible despite its APPALLING spiritual flaws (and even buying Bibles with the U.S. Constitution appended at the end) |
| 666 spirit |
Iesous |
1764815400 |
The fact that appearances number 666 and 667 are together in Acts 19:13 also speaks in a subtle way about how the 666 spirit of anti-Christ takes off when believers start to embrace a "67th book" that they add in their hearts to the 66 books of Scripture. |
| 666 spirit |
Iesous |
1764815100 |
Notice how God made sure that Acts 19:13 did not end before "Iesous" appears for a 667th time. It is as if the Lord did not want a verse of Scripture to leave the count of "Iesous" at 666. |
| 666 spirit |
Iesous |
1764815040 |
Thus, the 666th appearance of "Iesous" is in the following verse:
"Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth" (Acts 19:13) |
| 666 spirit |
Iesous |
1764814980 |
Whilst doing so, we must ignore the single appearance of "Iesous" in Acts 8:37 since, as explained by many (e.g.- neverthirsty.org/bible-qa/qa-ar… ), that verse was apparently added until around the 6th Century AD. That means that the 54th appearance of "Iesous" in Acts is in Acts 19:13. |
| 666 spirit |
Iesous |
1764814920 |
That takes the total appearances of "Iesous" in the 4 Gospels from 617 down to 612. Thus, to find the 666th appearance of "Iesous", we must find its 54th (666 - 612 = 54) appearance in the next book after the 4 Gospels, i.e.- the book of Acts. |
| 666 spirit |
Iesous |
1764814800 |
However, we must exclude the 5 appearances reported for John 7:53-8:11 (the story of the "adulterous woman") since, as we have described at shamah-elim.info/qa/q_john752.h.., that passage was artificially added by matriarchal man and is not part of the original text inspired by God. |
| 666 spirit |
Iesous |
1764814740 |
A search of "Iesous" (Greek Strong number 2424) in the King James Version yields these appearance totals in the 4 Gospels: 172 in Matthew, 93 in Mark, 98 in Luke, 254 in John, for a total of 617 appearances. |
| 666 spirit |
Iesous |
1764814680 |
Stemming from the thoughts the Lord gave us regarding the number 666 in a recent audio word shamah-elim.info/audio-words.ht… , we felt His prompting to look for the 666th appearance of the name "Jesus", i.e.- "Iesous" in the Greek text of Scripture. |
