Evans points out how the April 8 eclipse happened during the celebration of the Jewish new year, and during Rosh Hashanah the “ring of fire” eclipse will occur.
“Jesus said there will be signs in the sun, moon and stars,” Evans says. “God speaks to us through signs. The first time Jesus came remember, the Magi were led to Jesus by the star…there had been significant events, the blood moons, all kinds of events, that have been happening that are announcing something. They’re announcing the coming of Jesus.”
Evans states that nothing else in the prophetic realm is necessary at the moment for the Rapture to occur. He makes the point that life will continue going about as “business as usual” until the Lord snatches away His people from the destruction of this world.
“He’s saying, ‘When I come back, it’s going to be like the day that Noah entered the ark and the flood came and destroyed them all,'” Evans says.
So, how does the Rapture connect to Rosh Hashanah?
Evans points out that the seven feasts of Israel are essentially dress rehearsals, prophetic signs of what is to come.
“They were all dress rehearsals graphically demonstrating the future in advance,” says Evans. “We absolutely know the feasts of Israel were prophetic.”

“The next feast is the Feast of Trumpets, which is coming up in October,” he continues. “The Feast of Trumpets I believe represents the Rapture…1 Thessalonians chapter 4, 1 Corinthians chapter 15, they all talk about [how] Jesus is going to come with the trumpet blast.”
While none of us know the exact date or hour when our Lord will return, we can take a look at the signs all around us and know with great confidence that He will be back as we get closer each and every day to that moment.
