Today, I want to talk with you about the prophetic significance of this month of September,

being a September to remember.

Kind of rhymes a little bit, yeah.

Actually, teachers and students of Bible prophecy rightly get excited every

year about this time of year in September by virtue of it being what we affectionately

referred to as a high watch time. And the reason for that is because

of the prophetic types woven into the fabric of the feasts of the Lord found in the book

of Leviticus, the 23rd chapter. I want to read verse 4, Leviticus chapter 23. These are the feasts of the Lord.

Holy convocations which you shall proclaim at their appointed times. Now that's actually what the word feast means in the original language

of the Hebrew. It's actually the same word in my native tongue of Arabic. It's the word mo'ad,

which means appointment or appointed time, a time pointing to. So what are these appointed time a time pointing to so what are these appointed times

and what do they point to answer the person of Jesus Christ everything from

Genesis all the way through points to the person of Jesus Christ.

And such is the case with these seven feasts, seven the number of completion.

Here's a basic chart that shows these seven feasts, all of which,

again, point to the appointed time of their fulfillment in the person of Jesus Christ.

And just as the first four were fulfilled at the in the person of Jesus Christ.

And just as the first four were fulfilled at the appointed time of Christ's first coming, it's

believed that the second three, the fall feasts, will also be fulfilled at the rapture and second coming.

Now it should be noted that there are some who believe the Day of Atonement is the rapture.

Others actually believe Pentecost points to the rapture, but the majority view is that it is the feast of trumpets

that points to prophetically the rapture of the church.
