can we know the timing of the rapture?

Miller gives a lot of great reasons why Christians are actually able to discern when the time, or time of the month, should be. I thought I was familiar with most of these verses and concepts, but Miller has several more great ones that I was unaware of. I really recommend this book.

Our God IS an Awesome God!

And D.A. Miller's book about the relationship to these last days of the Church with the Feasts in the Book of Leviticus is a real answer to prayer. The Lord had begun to show me that it was "all in the Feasts" but I couldn't explain it to anyone very well - until I got this book through a Jack Van Impe Ministry mailing. WOW! It has also helped me to be SURE of the PRE-tribulation rapture of the Church since Mr. Miller so clearly makes the connection of the Church to the Bride of Christ, and the way the Jews 'do' the Wedding Feast. Thanks DA Miller!

Classic wake-up call for Christian Church to WATCH

FORBIDDEN KNOWLEDGE is awakening a sleeping Church to thelargely ignored biblical commandment to WATCH for the sign(s) andtiming of the removal of believers from earth (Rapture) by Jesus Christ. This book stands alone as the first to accept a literal interpretation that the word "WATCH" could mean, God plans to inform those "watching" for the Rapture before it happens. Its courage and inspiration to search the scriptures in the spirit of the Bible's book of Acts 17:11 is unmatched in our time. D.A. Miller was awakened to the book's theme by a spouse's questioning of 1 Thessalonians 5:2-5, which has clear language that believers will not be surprised, although unbelievers will be caught "as a thief in the night." D.A. Miller's search for the honest and scriptural answer led to a wall of skepticism called the "Imminence doctrine," or in Miller's language, "can't-ever-know" doctrine. The protectors of "Imminence" cite Matthew 24:36 & Mark 13:32 and incorrectly apply the doctrine to the Rapture, an event preceding the return of Christ by some seven years.Miller hits head-on the failure of the Church in our time to heed the words of Daniel's Chapter 12, to wait on the Holy Spirit to open the Scoll of the end times wide enough for us to see the Rapture's timing. We are alerted with a firm reminder: "Jesus promised that the Holy Spirit would be the ultimate teacher of those who trust God."Developing the theme with increasing confidence, Miller finds "there seems to be no scriptural justification to warrant the belief that Jesus will appear to obedient Christians as a thief." Gathering support from the Bible's passages of Luke 12:39, John 10:10 and Revelation 16:15 Miller concludes, "this particular passage does not teach that Christians cannot know the timing of future events."FORBIDDEN KNOWLEDGE urges the reader to search the scriptures in the spirit of Acts 17:11, and be prepared for messages from heaven, a frequent pattern of God to inform his own before fulfilling a divine purpose. Mindful of the cautions against specific dating of prophectic events, Miller asks the provocative question: "what if the Holy Spirit reveals Christ's exact timing?" There appears to be a careful nurturing of the hopes of those literal interpreters who still rely on the promise of Amos 3:7, where God says He will not do anything until He first reveals it to His servants the prophets. Miller delivers a very direct and persuasive call to those whose sleep is not so heavy and "can't-ever-know" voices hardly audible. Their faith in God's ability to reveal his hidden truths in His own time may be rewarded in our time. FORBIDDEN KNOWLEDGE inspires believers to move beyond the fear of not knowing, and the threat of unpreparedness that is implied by the Imminence faithful, into the possibility that we may know, and be ready for "the greatest spur for service yet." FORBIDDEN KNOWLEDGE reminds us that "God is a date setter," and the exact dates...were put there to discover

Absolutely refreshing insights to our Christian Faith

This was the first book to truly lead me in my endeavour to understand the Jewishness of my Christian Faith. This book is a must read for any true student of Bible prophecy attempting to understand what is going on in the world today. It will open your intellect to take a fresh look at what you can and can't dig into.
