The Last Trumpet – Proof That the Rapture WILL NOT BE on Sept 23-24, 2025

Posted Sept 5, 2025 | End Times Watch | River Wilde

I must first admit that I do not know everything. Knowing the details of the Rapture relating to the date, or timeframe has been quite the confusing journey. I have recently written an article indicating that yes indeed, the rapture could occur on Sept 2025. I would like to retract everything that I said in that article, for I now feel that it is incorrect information.

So, why the change?

I feel that I am very thorough in my research. The majority of my day is spent studying scriptures and trying to “figure things out.” In seeking additional guidance, I went to God in prayer which led to two conclusions.

I truly feel that the following scripture is intended to inform us 100% regarding the date of the rapture:

Matthew 24:36 (KJV):

“But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.”

The word “Day” here is important. We can not know the exact day that Jesus Christ will come for us in the rapture.

The scripture however is also very telling. It indicates day nor hour, but says nothing about the Year or season. I believe firmly that for those studying the Gospel of Jesus Christ as noted in the Bible, there is revealing information to help us place the event of Christ coming into a season, or year.

The second thing that I was led to is quite exact as well. It has to do with “The Last Trump.” Let’s jump into this information to give us more insight as to the timing of Christ’s return for the Rapture.

The end-times can be confusing. There are:

7 Seals of Judgments Being Opened.

7 Trumpets Judgments

7 Bowls of Wrath Poured Out by God

It is this complexity that I find exhilarating and exciting to study. The Book of Revelation is also written in a language difficult to understand as well. But through all of these challenges, I can tell you that as we use God as our editor, we are able to understand as much as He would like for us to know. I must also express to you that we all need to be understanding of others and their end times information that they are sharing. Facts are difficult to come by, and confusion is rampant. It’s time to stop fighting about the rapture date among His Church members. None of us, including myself can claim things to be certain. Let’s just all be ready each day for His return. It’s really that simple.

But if you’d like to learn what I have discovered, let me show you. Here are the 7 Trumpet Judgments. You can find more details in Revelation 8-11.

Trumpet Judgments (Revelation 8–11)

1. Hail, fire, blood – ⅓ earth burned
2. Great mountain (asteroid/volcano) – ⅓ sea becomes blood
3. Star “Wormwood” – ⅓ rivers poisoned
4. ⅓ sun, moon, stars darkened
5. Locusts from the bottomless pit (5 months of torment)
6. 200 million horsemen – ⅓ mankind slain
7. LAST TRUMPET (Revelation 11:15–19):

These are things that God intends to release or let happen in the Last Days. The Last Trumpet requires our attention.

5 And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.

16 And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God,

17 Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned.

18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.

19 And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.

This scripture mentions two events that are tied together, as well as give us an end-time time, (season). The 7^th Trumpet and the Resurrection of the Dead happen at the same time. Can you see this? This clue is a BIG ONE!

The scriptures also tell us that the RAPTURE will involve the Resurrection of the Dead (in Christ.) Let’s look at that.

1. 1 Thessalonians 4:13–18

This is the clearest passage:

16–17:

“For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.”

• Order:
  1. The Lord descends.
  2. A Trumpet Sounds.
  3. The dead in Christ rise first.
  4. Living believers are caught up (“raptured”) together with them.

Here’s another:

2. 1 Corinthians 15:51–52

Paul explains the mystery:

“Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.”

• Resurrection = “the dead shall be raised incorruptible.”
• Transformation = living believers instantly changed.

Can you see these things as being tied together?

The Last Trump – The 7^th Trumpet

Rapture happens

Christ comes down and calls for His Church (Followers)

The Dead (in Christ) shall rise first

They will be resurrected

Those living (In Christ) shall be caught up to meet the Lord in the air.

There bodies will be Transformed, changed into something similar as the dead being resurrected.

Then the Judgment of the righteous who have just been resurrected or Transformed

Alright, we have established this event and tied it to the timing of the 7^th or final Trumpet. So, when will the 7^th Trumpet occur.

The trumpets are in chronological order. So, the 7^th trumpet Occurs after the 6th trumpet, which releases a massive army and great destruction (Revelation 9:13–21). Take a look again at the 7 Trumpets, and you will see that none of them have happened yet…right? That’s right, so a rapture in a couple of weeks is impossible.

The timing of the 7^th Trumpet also happens before God pours out His Bowls of Wrath.

the 7th trumpet takes place at the midpoint of the Tribulation (around 3.5 years in), right after the death and resurrection of the Two Witnesses. It is the turning point that announces Christ’s coming reign and leads directly into the outpouring of the final wrath (the bowls).

We now have a “Season” that the Rapture will take place. It will be around the midpoint of the 7-year Tribulation Period, or 3.5 years in.

We also know that the 7-year Tribulation Period hasn’t even started yet. As we have learned, it will begin with Israel signing a 7-year peace agreement as noted in this scripture:

Daniel 9:27 (KJV):

“And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.”

Breakdown:

• “One week” = A prophetic week = 7 years.
• “He shall confirm the covenant with many” = The Antichrist strengthens or enforces a covenant/agreement, likely involving Israel and “many nations.”
• “In the midst of the week” = Halfway (3.5 years in), he breaks the covenant.
• “Cause the sacrifice… to cease” = He stops temple sacrifices, meaning by this point a temple in Jerusalem will exist again.
• “Abomination… make it desolate” = Jesus references this in Matthew 24:15, identifying it as the Abomination of Desolation, when the Antichrist desecrates the temple and declares himself as God (cf. 2 Thessalonians 2:3–4).

Timeline from Daniel 9:27 (KJV view):

1. Start of Tribulation (Year 0): Antichrist confirms a 7-year covenant.
2. Midpoint (3.5 years): Covenant broken, sacrifices stopped, Abomination of Desolation set up.
3. Final 3.5 years: Known as the Great Tribulation (Matthew 24:21), a time of intense persecution and God’s wrath poured out.
4. End of 7 years: Christ returns at Armageddon (Revelation 19).

I hope that you can plainly see now that the Rapture will not happen this month, but will happen approximately 3.5 years after the peace agreement is signed.

One last clue for you to be aware of, the agreement with Israel must be for 7 years, and it must also allow for the building of the Jewish temple to take place in Israel, quite possibly upon the temple mount. These are two notable things that you can be watching for. As you know, President Trump is scheduled to meet with the United Nations this month to discuss peace in Israel.
