The sign of the Son of man is appearing, and the Lord is fulfilling many of His end-time Bible types and prophecies with it. We have seen how it represents the alpha and omega signature of the Lord, the sign of Jonah, how the seven churches are displayed there as well as the ten commandments and more. In this study, we will consider the prophecy of the earth’s culminating harvests of wheat and grapes as described in Revelation 14. In a similar parable—that of the sower of seed—Jesus said that the harvest was at the end of the world, so seeing this prophecy fulfilling confirms that the end is here.
The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one; The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. (Matthew 13:38-39)
As the Lord has guided us over the years, every time we studied the prophecy of Revelation 14, He brought us closer to the truth. He gave us progressively more understanding until we had all the tools necessary to see the full picture now at the end, within the context of the sign of the Son of man.
The last articles we published on the Apocalyptic Harvest theme explained the harvest of the wheat and the grapes prior to the revelation of the sign of the Son of man, yet many points are still applicable. Now it is our aim to show how the Lord has used the sign to additionally symbolize both the wheat harvest—including the harvest-time separation of the wheat from the tares—and the vintage when the wicked are cast as overripe grapes into the winepress to be trodden in His wrath once the church is caught up.
The Lord of the harvest is thrusting in His sickle to gather you into His barn as you see Him with clarity and embrace the revelation of His coming. May you be found among the good wheat of His kingdom.
We will see the actors of the harvest passage enacting the harvest texts in the sign of the Son of man by looking at the heavenly clock witness of Orion.
The fulfillment of the harvest passage begins with the heavenly harvester of Orion, who meets the description of the first line.
And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle. (Revelation 14:14)
When we look up, we see the Son of man, Jesus, represented in Orion, sitting upon the white cloud of the Orion Nebula. His golden crown is shown in the constellation of Auriga.[1] Jesus has many names in Scripture, but in this verse He is called “the Son of man” in reference to the sign of “the Son of man”, lending support that His work as the Lord of the harvest should also be included in this phenomenal sign. As it is presented in the text, the actor is stationary, so it makes sense that the symbols would likewise be stationary as constellations or distant heavenly fixtures (Orion, Auriga, and the Orion Nebula). The Son of man was waiting for the right time to begin the wheat harvest: when the wheat would finally be ripe! Only then would He thrust in His sharp sickle to gather the harvest. The path of comet E3 forms a giant sickle that is positioned exactly in the reach of Orion as shown at left.
As the prophecy of the wheat harvest continues, the first movement is made by the next actor in the scene:
And another angel came out of the temple... (Revelation 14:15)
Understanding the symbols, this verse tells us that we should expect to see another comet coming from a constellation that could represent the temple. In the setting of the sign of the Son of man, that would be the Horologium constellation as we explained in the article Elijah and the Way to Heaven, where we recognized how three comets (BB, K2, and E3[2]) figuratively open the three doors of the temple area when they pass through the clock. Comet K2 comes out of the clockface on March 12, 2023, representing this harvest angel coming out of the temple.
Thus began the sign of the Son of man as comet (E3) simultaneously crossed the river Eridanus. This was a momentous and much anticipated time for those looking to the heavens. Many studies pointed to the week from March 5 to 12.[3] With a loud voice, the midnight cry was heard on March 5, 2023 when the two largest comets ever discovered worked together with the most unprecedented volcanic eruption of Hunga Tonga to perform the midnight hour carillon on the Horologium. Then, from March 12, 2023, as the angel K2 came out of the clock face temple area, he cried out toward the first angel, Orion, as illustrated by the line of communication it draws from itself to “the Son of man” to deliver his message:
And another angel [K2] came out of the temple [the clock face], crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud [Orion], Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe. (Revelation 14:15)
From March 12, 2023, this call to thrust in the sickle began to resound, first through the church of Philadelphia, the “first fruits”, as it were, having already understood the time. Then comet E3 transitioned between the handle of the sickle and its sharpened blade until coming to Lepus. Then, as E3 started to cut through the constellations of the remaining churches that lay in its path, the harvesting process of separating the wheat from the tares began.[4]
And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped. (Revelation 14:16)
The Son of man (Orion) “thrusts in” His sickle over the churches on the earth, beginning on April 25, 2023, when comet E3 first crosses into the constellation of Lepus[5] at the head of the six churches to be harvested.
We explained in The Final Gathering, how Laodicea is represented by that part of the Eridanus that appears to be “spit out” of the mouth of the great cometary fish. But there are a few who overcome even from Laodicea, and they must have a place within the body. Being spit out, Laodicea becomes one with the dogs outside the city, and thus, those who repent from her ways are represented by the part of the dog’s back leg that is inside. Philadelphia, on the other hand, is already inside the ark and works with the Lord in calling for the harvest.
Thus began the process of the gathering of the overcoming wheat from the church fields into the barn.[6] In the article, The Final Gathering, the messages of repentance given to the churches of this last generation, as represented by the constellations along the path of comet E3, are presented according to the pattern of Revelation 2 and 3. We encourage you to read that article and hear what the Spirit says to you.
After cutting through the six church constellations, the reaping of the earth is concluded on January 15, 2024, when comet E3 reaches the constellation border of the Horologium. This is precisely the anniversary of the unprecedented explosion of the Hunga Tonga volcano[7] that marked the time when the voice of God announced the midnight hour on the clockface of the Horologium. The midnight cry began to sound with the sign of the Son of man, and the blade of the sickle cuts the last sheaf of the churches on that anniversary.
It is our earnest prayer that as you recognize the application of this harvest prophecy, you will allow the Spirit to bring you into the barn of truth and invite others to come with you like the companion grains on a stalk of wheat.
To use the symbolism of Jesus’ parable of the ten virgins, trim your lamp burning with the oil of the Holy Spirit, represented by the constellation of Columba (the dove), and come to the wedding feast while the door is open, because those in whom the lamp of the Spirit is not burning are trying to buy the Spirit by works when it is a free gift of grace. Thus, they turn away from the gracious invitation to do good works but will be met with a closed door in the end.
As the Sabbath commandment teaches us, when we have the Lord’s law in our hearts, His DNA is ours, and we rest in His finished work of creation and redemption. Those who work for the Spirit, like Simon the sorcerer,[8] instead of entering into the Lord’s Sabbath rest, will be met with a closed door, because it is only open to those with Christ’s DNA. He knows no other identity.
Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. (Matthew 25:11-12)
Take care whose DNA you receive by your belief: whether that of God, or that of man by putting your faith in man’s own works.
But Peter said unto him [Simon the sorcerer], Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money. (Acts 8:20)
The end is here. Decide today whom you will serve and repent before the grapes are cut and cast into the winepress. God’s justice is being executed on the earth in perfect timing with the sign of the Son of man and His Bible prophecies, but that is a theme for an upcoming article. Make sure you sign up for our newsletter so you don’t miss it.
After the earth’s wheat harvest is described in the Bible, a similar process of inspection and gathering starts for the grapes. This sequence shows the forbearance of the Lord, who gives ample opportunity for people to recognize His work, repent, and decide to enter the ark of truth as wheat gathered into the barn. As we saw, that gathering time is represented by the sickle of comet E3, which is before the inspection of the grapes.
The narrative describing the grape harvest starts with the temple in heaven, which we identified with the Horologium constellation.
And another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle. (Revelation 14:17)
This harvester angel represents Jesus in His role as the King, ready to execute His wrath toward the unrepentant. He is the Lord of the harvest, so, as we saw Him involved in the wheat harvest represented by Orion as the Son of man, so now we see Him in the Horologium for the grape harvest. But in this case, the angel is not just sitting stationary, but is coming out of the temple. Therefore, he must be represented by a moving object rather than a constellation.
How does this play out? The role is perfectly acted by a special comet we have shared much about: C/2014 UN271 (Bernardinelli–Bernstein). It was discovered on October 20, 2014, which was the Hebrew anniversary of the birth of Christ. However, it was not until it entered the Horologium clock face immediately after the solar eclipse of June 10, 2021, that it was observed to have a cloudy coma and was thus reported to be a comet on June 22, 2021. This effectively activated the Horologium clock mechanism, and God was clearly bringing attention to this heavenly timekeeper, since this new comet made headlines as the biggest ever discovered.
Months later, this comet bearing the date of our Lord’s birth as the Son of man stood at the midnight hour on the Horologium clock, when on January 15, 2022, the Hunga Tonga volcano blasted an unprecedented signal to the world that the time was set when the sign of the Son of man would appear.
Now that the harvest time is underway, comet BB exited the face of the Horologium clock (representing the temple) on a very special anniversary: May 27, 2023. It was on that date in AD 31, that Jesus was raised from the dead and briefly ascended to His Father, having vanquished the kingdom of the dead, and on this anniversary, He was proclaimed the King of the earth as the adoration of the seventh trumpet was heard in heaven:[9]
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. (Revelation 11:15)
When this comet left the clockface, it acted the part of the angel leaving the temple as Jesus must do when His ministry there is finished. The verse tells us He has a sharp sickle for the grape harvest, but where can we see it? The answer to this question reveals God’s marvelous design and symmetry.
We already saw comet E3 depicting the sickle in the hand of the Son of man for the wheat harvest, and now that it has come to the Horologium, it turns around and also serves as the sickle for the grape harvest. After the first sickle has run its course, another sickle takes shape as it arches along the pendulum of the Horologium.
The Lord sees the end from the beginning, so just as the whole sickle for the wheat harvest is described in the text, even though the comet has not yet fully traced it in the sky, so with the sickle in the hand of the angel coming out of the temple. Comet BB exited the temple on May 27, 2023, before E3 had traced his sharp sickle, but just as we can see its future path with Stellarium, so could God when He gave the prophecy. Nevertheless, BB is said to come out of the temple already having the sickle, so it must have “grasped its handle” before it came out. This is exactly what comet BB illustrated some time earlier on June 4, 2022, in perfect harmony with the biblical description.
The beautiful, poetic symmetry of the harvest passage is reflected in the symmetry of the E3 sickles! Seeing this kind of correlation between Revelation’s prophecies and the heavenly signs is a strong confirmation that the former were meant to be understood in the context of the latter.[10] We may have confidence in the validity of the sign of the Son of man and its signal of the earth’s final harvests and the coming of Christ.
But there is one more character with a special role who appears in the harvest prophecy:
And another angel came out from the altar, which had power over fire; and cried with a loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle, saying, thrust in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for her grapes are fully ripe. (Revelation 14:18)
On the heavenly canvas, the altar is illustrated by the constellation of Taurus, so the angel coming from the altar must pass through this area as it inspects the grapes and calls to the harvesting angel with his assessment of their readiness. It is useful to consider the agricultural seasons in Israel for when grain and grapes are harvested:
From the chart above, notice how the grains including wheat are harvested earlier in the year compared to grapes. It fits that the wheat harvest would begin on April 25, 2023, as the E3 blade of the sickle began to form. For the grapes, a broad range of four months are shown for the harvest. Interestingly, the first month of the grape harvest is the month of June, which the world has taken to flaunt its pride in the image of the beast. Looking at the altar during those months this year, one indeed discovers a cometary actor coming out of Taurus on September 8, 2023. It is comet C/2022 S4 (Lemmon).
The text describes this angel as having power over fire, which for comets translates to having the ability to emerge unscathed after passing the sun at its perihelion. Being the hottest part of a comet’s journey, these icy travelers often completely disintegrate when they come to their perihelion.[11] But this comet is not on a course that would bring it so close to the sun as to endanger it with disintegration, so it meets the criterion of having power over fire. Let’s observe its trajectory to see how it fulfills the prophetic line.
After leaving the altar (Taurus), comet S4 passes through the Eridanus at the stretch where Cetus (biblically Leviathan, or Satan) appears to be grabbing it with his claws. As we have explained before, Eridanus represents the DNA-laden blood that flowed from Jesus side wound, depicted as the Orion Nebula in the constellation of Orion. This represents Satan’s attack on the natural DNA through the covid-19 vaccination which constitutes the number of the beast. This inspecting angel, comet S4, bears record that those who take the number of the beast are counted as fully ripe grapes, to be cast into the winepress of the wrath of God.
Continuing along the course of comet S4, we see that it enters the constellation of Fornax, the alchemist’s furnace. This points to the fiery furnace in which the faithful are tried in the tests of this time, to reveal a golden character that is resistant to the number, image, and mark of the beast.
Meanwhile, this cometary messenger makes an incursion into the constellation of Sculptor: an image. Here, the angel interrogates the world regarding the image of the beast. “Who has upheld the image of God in marriage between a man and a woman as it was designed from the beginning?” and, “Who has worshipped the counterfeit image by homosexual marriage, approval of the LGBTQ+ lifestyle, or by spreading the woke ideology?”
The time when comet S4 comes to a reversal point in the Sculptor is on January 23, 2024. This is a significant date, because it is the 14th anniversary of the publication of the Orion message, which was the beginning of our public ministry that brought the foundational light of the knowledge of time.[12] As God led us in study, we could understand and identify the image and number of the beast and how they are presently being promoted in our society today. And this is what comet S4 signifies when it cries with a loud voice to the angel of the Horologium clock mechanism with the following command:
Thrust in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for her grapes are fully ripe. (Revelation 14:18)
Through the message of time, God seeks to warn the world about the deceptions of Satan in the last days. By understanding the close connection of various prophecies of Revelation to specific markers in time, we discern God’s landmarks and road signs to the end, and we are well-equipped to understand the events taking place around us in the proper context. Thus one may withstand the traps of the enemy that have snared the organized churches as most of them have embraced a corrupted gospel that leads to death by condoning what God calls abomination. Because the message of time provided that necessary clarity, it is fitting for this comet to highlight that message as it announces that the grapes are ripe for the harvest before turning around toward the Eridanus.
The Horologium witness hears the call and responds by thrusting in the sickle.
And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God. (Revelation 14:19)
A few days after comet S4 reenters the furnace, symbolizing the great trials and tribulation expected for that time, comet E3 begins to show the sickle being thrust in by the angel of the Horologium on February 20, 2024. This is the time when the vine of the earth is gathered and the clusters are cast into the winepress as the Horologium itself represents.[13] It is important to understand that there are different levels of God’s wrath, and His people are not spared from the effects of all of it. Even now, His plagues are falling on the earth, and some fall indiscriminately, such that anyone may suffer to a degree on account of them, including His faithful children, as He seeks to bring the world to repentance. This is just as it was during the plagues of Egypt, which Israel wasn’t entirely spared from.
The plagues represent God’s wrath through a series of accumulating problematic issues on the earth that are resulting from man’s sinful course. Toward the end of the seventh plague, however, the Bible speaks of a time when the fierceness of His wrath would be given to Babylon.
…and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. (Revelation 16:19)
The last stretch of time before the visible appearance of the Lord is when the seventh plague is expected, and the grapes should be cast into the winepress of the wrath of God.
Then, on May 27, 2024, Jesus resurrects the saints and gathers them together with the living saints to begin the travel to the sea of glass on May 28, 2024, when comet E3 strikes the pendulum the second time at the end of the sickle. This is when the fierceness of God’s wrath is delivered to those left behind. Jesus then rules them with the iron rod—the sword coming out of His mouth (the pendulum of the clock) as we explained in The Rod of Iron.
And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. (Revelation 19:15)
Comet S4, the angel who had inspected the grapes and deemed them ready for harvest, crosses the path of comet K2 and enters into Sign of the Son of man on the anniversary of the resurrection of Jesus on May 27, 2024 as it crosses the Eridanus River like the three kings had done before it. He who made us kings and priests to God then receives us to Himself.[14]
The harvest passage continues after the church of God is taken from the earth, however, and tracing the path of comet S4 further, we find that it strikes the pendulum bob on June 10, 2024. This was the anniversary of the 2021 G7 meeting that formalized the Covid-19 global vaccination agenda to administer the number of the beast to all the world, immediately after which comet BB entered the Horologium clock face. This short span of time is fitting for the last harvest text to play out on the earth as the redeemed make their way to the sea of glass.
And the winepress was trodden without the city [the church], and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs. (Revelation 14:20)
This suggests that the treading of the winepress would begin on May 28, 2024, when Jesus begins to physically rescue the saints from the warring mobs of the wicked, who in their unhinged rage and hopelessness, would surely attack with all that they have as they see the redeemed taken by the Lord to go on their seven-day journey.[15] The saints are not destined for God’s wrath.
For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, (1 Thessalonians 5:9)
Seeing the prophetic testimony of the harvest angels enacted in the heavens with precision is not just a fulfillment of a prophecy. It is a confirmation that the end is here, because Jesus identified the harvest with the end of the world in His parable of the sower, in whose field an enemy had sowed tares.
The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. (Matthew 13:39)
Jesus is Himself the Lord of the final harvest, and in the sign of the Son of man, all the details of the parable are laid out in time, including the barn (the belly of the fish) where the harvest is collected and by what time.
As the harvest angel uses the cometary sickle (E3) to cut through the constellations of the various churches, the wheat is gathered inside the barn as the faithful remnant abiding in the ark of truth. Inside, they are protected from Satan’s attacks, as represented especially by Cetus taking hold of the Eridanus River, the DNA of the body of Christ, and diverting it with his own synthetic DNA.
This representation speaks of God’s character that combines love and justice. God does not desire that anyone should perish, so just like in the time of Noah, He made provision for an ark that would protect all who would enter.[16] He is a refuge for those who have His law in their heart and are safely enclosed in the ark amid the flood of great trouble, but He executes vengeance upon those who reject His generous gift of salvation and choose peace with the world instead. Refusing the humble way of the pure blood of Christ, they try to save themselves in pride and so pay the price for their iniquity when their own blood is shed like overripe grapes trodden underfoot.
God’s character is also revealed in the imagery of the two sickles. Notice the various elements of symmetry involved here with the two time-measuring harvesters and their companion angels. Do you see how the paths of the two inspecting angels, comets K2 and S4, are contrasting images? Comet K2 calls for the wheat harvest and then ascends to the Lord in Orion, while S4 soars around Cetus, the god of the dead, before descending to the winepress and calling for the vintage. The righteous endure long with evil while they are gathered, and receive their eternal reward hereafter, but the wicked get their reward here on earth, and are trodden in the winepress in the end.[17]
Everything God does follows His order and design. We have shared several articles as we have studied the harvest in the past, but the visual symmetry we see now in the context of the sign of the Son of man is unparalleled, so that we can be certain that the same Artist who penned Revelation’s poetic harvest scene is He who illustrated it in heaven.
The sickle for the wheat harvest that is held in Jesus’ hand as our merciful High Priest is large, passing through the entire region where the churches are symbolized. This can also be viewed as the staff of the Good Shepherd, which He uses to gently bring all the sheep into His fold. By contrast, the sickle for the grape harvest on the opposite end that Jesus holds as King in the Horologium is small, spanning a relatively short period of time in which the compounded plagues will be most severe. He makes a quick work of vengeance.
During this time, the Lord is careful to protect His sealed ones—the apple of His eye—in whom He then rejoices with the smile of the whale. Taken together, the symmetry of the two sickles illustrates the self-similarity reminiscent of the Pythagorean tree of life and the spiral arms of the galactic Holy City.
And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth. Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. (Revelation 19:6-8)
As the wheat sickle continues to cut the sheaves, may there be an abundant harvest with many listening to what the Spirit says to the churches[18] to be gathered into the Lord’s barn. God gives plenty of evidence so that all may find salvation in Jesus and escape the fate of the wicked. There is no need to fear the grape sickle if we walk in humility and allow the Lord of the harvest to gather us into His barn as good wheat.
Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn. (Matthew 13:30)
