We are now in the phase of dipping our toes into the new norm, trying to strike a balance between staying alive physically and economically. Other than sleeping early which I kinda fail to achieve, I have been maintaining balanced diet paired with ample amounts of workouts and truth is, I didn’t fall sick (excluding post vaccination side effects) for a single time in the past pandemic years. Hey it sounded like BC years.

Ok back to what I am excited to share about — besides getting vaccinated, I believe we agree that keeping our immunity in its tip top condition is the only way to arm ourselves up. In vulnerable times like this, leaving home means exposing ourselves to danger, hence we need more than vitamin C and healthy lifestyle to boost our immunity.

I recently was being educated about Yeast beta-glucan (YBG) , that shows strong evidence and ability to enhance immune system by activating immune cells to destroy germs. Introducing you the New Provital Immuna Plus that is scientifically formulated with YBG, selenium and vitamin C. 2 glasses a day, provides us a Triple Immunity Protection from YBG, selenium and vitamin C. Strong armour we are talking about here.

Not only myself but I am also making sure my mom is taking 2 glasses a day as well as she is more susceptible to the virus due to her age. Hence it is more crucial for her to make sure her immune system is strong to combat any sickness. Let’s share this important message so that we can all protect our loved ones together!

Activate your immunity, activate your life.

When Will Jesus Return for us?

““Now from the fig tree learn this parable. When its branch has now become tender, and produces its leaves, you know that the summer is near. Even so you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. Most certainly I tell you, this generation will not pass away, until all these things are accomplished. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away. But no one knows of that day and hour, not even the angels of heaven, but my Father only.” (Matthew‬ ‭24:32-36‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

When Jesus said “no one knows of that day and hour,” a Jewish audience who knows the Old Testament (Torah) will see the connection with the Feast of Trumpets (Yom Teruah).

It is celebrated at the same time as Rosh Hashanah (the Jewish New Year).

The Bible says that on the Feast of Trumpets, the shofar (a cleaned-out ram’s horn) is to be sounded.

The Jews in charge of blowing the shofar would wait until the approximate date of the appearance of the new moon in the month of September, and watch intently, ready to blow the shofar once the first sliver of new moon is seen.

See this quote about Rosh Hashanah from Wikipedia:

“Since the time of the destruction of the Second Temple of Jerusalem in 70 CE and the time of Rabban Yohanan ben Zakkai, normative Jewish law appears to be that Rosh Hashanah is to be celebrated for two days, because of the difficulty of determining the date of the new moon.”

In other words, no one knows the day or hour of the new moon’s appearance—just like the Rapture!

See this quote too:

“The best-known ritual of Rosh Hashanah is the blowing of the shofar, a musical instrument made from an animal horn. The shofar is blown at various points during the Rosh Hashanah prayers, with a total of 100 blasts on each day. While the blowing of the shofar is a Biblical statute, it is also a symbolic "wake-up call", stirring Jews to mend their ways and repent. The shofar blasts call out: "Sleepers, wake up from your slumber! Examine your ways and repent and remember your Creator."”

Many Christians are mistaken that the Rapture happens at the last trumpet of the seven trumpets in the Book of Revelation. This would mean that the saints go through the Tribulation and are subject to God’s wrath that will be poured out on this world. However, this is not true.

“in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we will be changed.” (1 Corinthians‬ ‭15:52‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

On the Feast of Trumpets, a hundred blasts of the trumpet are sounded. The final blast of the trumpet is the “last trump”. The moment the last trump is founded, we will be transformed. Our mortal bodies will be changed into glorified immortal bodies.

Christians who have already died are called “the dead in Christ” or “asleep”. Bring asleep suggests that it is a temporary state; that they will wake up again.

It is significant that the Jews see the blowing of the shofar on the Feast of Trumpets as a “wake-up call” to awake sleepers from their slumber.

“Many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.” (Daniel‬ ‭12:2‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

The resurrection of the dead will begin with the dead in Christ: all Old Testament and New Testament saints who are saved through faith in Yahweh/Yeshua (Jesus). Their physical bodies which have decayed will be formed back from the dust of the earth, and their spirit will go back into the body. Then, they will be simultaneously transformed with us who are alive and remaining.

Whether or not the Rapture of the saints literally occurs on the Feast of Trumpets or not, we understand that this feast is a picture of the Rapture. If you do not like this term, then you can also call it “the great escape”, “the snatching away”, or “harpazo”.

An archangel will sound many blasts on a heavenly shofar, and at the last blast, we will be changed and be caught up to meet Jesus in the air. It will be a great reunion to see all your loved ones who are asleep at the moment. We will embrace each other amid the clouds, and finally see the Lord face to face.

Are you ready to be receive your new body and to meet the Lord? The return of the Lord is the blessed hope for every Christian, and the signs in this world seem to show that we are in the season of the Rapture.

Once the first sliver of the ‘new moon’ appears, Jesus will stand up and come to receive His bride. Be watchful and excited, for we are not waiting for death, but for our bodily redemption!

Today I’m talking with Luke Ranieri (@ScorpioMartianus) who literally speaks fluent Latin and conversational Ancient Greek. He’s part of a small community of speakers around the world who have kept the Latin language alive, even though as a native language of Ancient Rome it died out over a thousand years ago. For him, learning Latin is about the community but most importantly about accessing the huge body of literature, ancient and modern, written in Latin. It was really cool to hear him talk about the way that his ability to speak Latin has allowed him to empathize with ancient Roman literature at a much higher level.

We talked about what Latin sounded like and how he and people like him have accurately reconstructed the pronunciation — he’s not just making this stuff up! We also talked about learning Latin and the way Latin is taught in high schools in the U.S. and the U.K., and as you can imagine Luke certainly has a lot of thoughts about that! I studied Latin and Ancient Greek in high school and it was interesting to compare experiences with Luke.

This beautiful view is in front of this award-winning, iconic, unforgettable and luxurious resort in Boracay Island, the Philippines.
But the only true about what I said is, “unforgettable”.

After a long walk from station 3 to DiscoveryS hores Boracay, I decided to grab my favorite pasta, aglio olio. There were a few people taking photos of food at the entrance and I was greeted by a guard who happened to be the owner, and the waiter of the resort.

His greetings was so warm, he asked if I had a QR code, which is required before you get in the island. His tone was so condescending and unfriendly, and so I thought, he was the owner, acting as a guard. I politely answered “yes, and I would not be able to get inside the island itself, if I did not have one.” Hence, my response for his already condescending voice. He answered back with a more condescending voice “I am just asking!” Which was then again, obvious from the first question he asked, because, it sounded with a question mark AND an exclamation point.

I eagerly asked if they had pasta, and he said he had to go inside first and check. When I was approaching him again, to ask if there serve pasta, he asked “what kind of pasta?”, now the guard became the waiter. I did not know a luxurious hotel hires a guard and a waiter at the same time.

The resort had a few people. Yes, which means there were plenty of vacant tables inside. He then approached me and ask me to dine it at a location where the table was filthy, the chair was dirty, and secluded from the rest of the guests. I confirmed four times with the manager if it was really their protocol, to let the walk-in guest eat there. Which was then a lie because I saw a few people dining it at the better place, not hotel guests, but walk-ins.

Discovery Shores Boracay Island, where the guard and manager discriminate people.
Discovery Shores Boracay Island, where they market their resort as luxurious but their service is rated as one star. No, let’s make it unrateable.
Discovery Shores Boracay Island, a place where people with Sony A7C and professional cameras are discriminated. Vloggers are not welcomed.
Discovery Shores where the guard is the owner, and the waiter. Where the operations manger is incapable.

Discovery Shores Boracay Island the Philippines, overrated and does not need the support of the people. Only people who discriminates supports a business that discriminates.

P.S, this is my personal experience, and with videos to support my claim. Some people around the area that this is owned by a congressman, where in the Philippines, you get killed if you speak against their businesses. So if something happens to me, you know who to find.
