Hello all, and Happy Valentines Day. I love reading posts about days that might fulfill the rapture because they are connected to signs, anniversaries, etc. Calvin always has some amazing posts on that. They keep me on my toes and they keep me looking up.

There have been many many days come and gone that were "high watch dates" and I always am excited to be extra vigilant on those dates. But as many of these have come and gone, and the verse goes that no one will know the day or the hour, not the angels, not even the Son!! (Jesus) so this got me to thinking about Jesus' behavior as he was here on Earth. He chose the most humble of circumstances almost always. Born in a manger, a carpenter as a profession, rode in on a donkey, etc. Now we DO know that we are "in the season", that is for certain. So trying to guess at a date for the rapture is a favorite past time of mine, but I'm thinking instead of trying to find a date with some sort of "significance" to it, perhaps we should be looking for the "Least Likely of days". A day when pretty much nothing is going on. No major anniversaries, holidays, holy days, etc etc etc. I am thinking that nearly EVERY day has some sort of significance, but if we can find the most humble of days, the "least likely" of days, perhaps we have found "the" day. :)
I honestly have no idea even how to begin looking for a day like that, but its just a thought!!! Right now there are some February dates that seem really good for the rapture, but my only hesitation is the verse that says to pray your flight does not happen in winter.....with it being record cold temperatures in much of Europe I am doubting it will happen until the spring sometime, when everywhere is sort of "in the middle" as far as temperatures go.
Do you think I'm onto something here?
Blessings and much love to you on this Valentine's day. I hope you feel the love of our precious Lord and savior in your hearts!!!

Purim is a date this winter. This year it falls on March 8.

"Pray your flight does not happen in winter" is not a reference to the Rapture. Jesus will not need favorable seasonal conditions to Rapture His Church. That passage is a reference to the abomination of desolation at the Tribulation's midpoint, which will be a signal to the Jews to flee Jerusalem immediately because the Great Tribulation is about to begin. The winter rains will slow down their flight if it happens then.

I totally think you're on to something. I have often thought that the day of the rapture will be so significant in our world's history that why would it be shared with the same date of another historical event? True, God has used historical dates to play out other events, but this time, especially considering that it will be a time that we least suspect, I think the rapture will be a new date in world history that we will celebrate forever. Sweet--another holiday! :)
