Jan 4 - Iran’s Jamkaran Mosque: Red Flag Raised Signaling Revenge for Suleimani


WATCH: Iran unveils red flag of revenge against America at mosqueThe flag, inscribed with the words “Those who want to avenge the blood of Hussein,” was hoisted above the mosque’s shrine for what local reports claimed was the first time in history…  The grandson of Muhammad, Hussein was decapitated in A.D. 680 during the Second Islamic Civil War.
Jamarkaran Mosque is one of the holiest sites in Shiite Islam and one of the mosques associated with the Mahdi, also known as the 12th Imam. Some Muslims believe the Mahdi is alive but hidden and will emerge to rule the world shortly before the Day of Judgment. Referencing the Mahdi, the speaker called, "O Allah, hasten your custodian reappearance," as the flag was raised.

The World's Largest Corpse Flower Is Blooming Right Now (and It Stinks)
It smells like rotting flesh — found in Indonesia! The rafflesia plant is often referred to as a "monster flower" for its parasitic properties and repugnant stench. Indonesian wildlife officials might've found the most monstrous flower of them all.
A rafflesia that recently bloomed in a West Sumatran forest is nearly 4 feet in diameter -- that would make it the largest flower ever recorded, according to the Natural Resources and Conservation Center in West Sumatra. Curiously, it was the same location (and host plant) that produced what was the largest rafflesia ever recorded back in 2017. But this monster flower is 4 inches wider. The plant has no roots or leaves -- it's parasitic. The rafflesia feeds on a host plant to live, drinking its water and nutrients. It's only visible when it bursts through the host plant to reveal its flowers. - https://www.nydailynews.com/news/world/ny-indonesian-jungle-monster-flower-found-scientists-20200104-whcllowiobfuvjq2zbvmel4nve-story.html

IMMINENT 
The rapture could occur at any moment (1 Thessalonians 4:13-181 Corinthians 15:50-54) and can rightly be called “imminent.”
Our salvation is “ready to be revealed in the last time” (1 Peter 1:5). Jesus could return for His own at any moment, and that event will set in motion the series of events detailed in Revelation 6-18. Like the five wise virgins in Jesus’ parable (Matthew 25:1-13), we must be ready. “Be on the alert then, for you do not know the day nor the hour” (Matthew 25:13).

Good stuff! Saw your link over at InformedChristians and thought you might find this interesting. About a month ago I saw this comment on another channel:

I only had one dream that the rapture was in. I saw a round weight the ones you but on a weight lifting bar. It said Tu Bishavt then I saw another round weight it said tu bishavt. Then I saw another round weight it said rapture!. In the dream I knew the round weights were moons.

I thought the dream seemed strange and maybe important, so I asked her what she knew of Tu Bishvat prior to the dream and she said very little. The next 3 Tu Bishvats from her dream were 2018, 19 and 20. Here's what's rather fascinating, all 3 of those Tu Bishvats fell on eclipse days. The first two were total lunar eclipses and now today's penumbra eclipse. Who knows, right?

Thanks for sharing, Stan! There are so many conjunction of events that it can't be just a coincidence. I made a new graphic for all the January 10 events & Tu B'Shevat. Time will tell how it all plays out. Some day it will all be revealed! Awaiting the day! Blessings and maranantha!
