A revelation from God?
The below is from Marilyn Agee's Web site (http://www.kiwi.net/~mjagee/),
P&C 507, pointed out to me by our UK friend, Ola Illori. It is a letter to Marilyn.
Interestingly, this goes along with my April 18, 2000 message, "In 40 Days,"
which you may enjoy reviewing. It is now posted at http://www.oocities.org/bramlett2000/40days.html.
Whether this year or some other, it is certainly possible that the rapture of the church
will be on Ascension Day, because that was when Jesus was raptured. It was a type of our
own. Plus, when Jesus ascended, the Bible says, "...while they beheld, he was taken
up; and A CLOUD received him out of their sight. And while they looked steadfastly toward
heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; Which also said, Ye
men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up
from you into heaven, shall so come IN LIKE MANNER (even as, the same way as...) as ye
have seen him go into heaven" (Acts 1:9-11).
"IN LIKE MANNER AS..." MAY MEAN MORE THAN WHAT WE ALWAYS THOUGHT. THIS MAY BE A
HOLY SPIRIT-IMPLANTED CLUE THAT THE RAPTURE OF THE CHURCH WILL BE ON ASCENSION DAY!!! This
is not my idea but it suddenly came to friend Dr. Armando Pardillo last night as he was
talking to me on his cell phone in his car in South Florida, and I immediately saw the
possibility.

Message on Marilyn's Web site:
My brother...recently had an apparent revelation from God. (Note: ... has been a language
specialist for the past 30 years and he loves the LORD intensely and is very active in
Bible study and witnessing to other people).
One night recently Dan was reading from the Psalms and the entire book of Micah before
bedtime. Then he went to bed and immediately 2 sentences went through his mind repeatedly:
"God will pour out His Spirit on Pentecost this year", and "The
resurrection and ascension will take place this year 10 days before Pentecost".
He thinks that this is a revelation from God. He does NOT claim to be a prophet and he is
not trying to set dates.
Pentecost is usually associated with "spiritual revival". Who would need
"spiritual revival"? Probably the Laodicean church members. The Philadelphia
church members already are "full of the Spirit".
Question: "Why would GOD "pour out His Spirit" (as on Pentecost), if He is
going to "take out" (rapture) the faithful church"?
If God should "rapture" the faithful church this year 10 days before Pentecost,
then probably the Laodicean church members would be so alarmed and distraught about
missing the rapture that they would go into 10 days of praying and crying out to the LORD.
The LORD would honor their crying and seeking by "pouring out the Spirit on
Pentecost". These Laodicean members would now be "filled with the Spirit",
but they would still have to endure the suffering, the judgments and death of the
tribulation period; many of them would have to give their life for their testimony.
