BREAKING NEWS

THE "DATE SETTING POLICE" HAVE BEEN OPERATING WITHOUT A BADGE

An Urgent Public Service Announcement (This Is Not a Drill)

Ladies and gentlemen, we interrupt your regularly scheduled Christian living to bring you this critical alert: There's been a massive jurisdictional violation occurring across the global Church, and someone needs to call it in.

The "Date Setting Police" have been making arrests for years—without a warrant, without a court, and without any legal authority whatsoever. Think about that for a moment. Imagine your local police department operated this way:

Officer: "Sir, you're under arrest."
Citizen: "For what?"

Officer: "For doing exactly what the law requires."
Citizen: "Can I see your badge?"

Officer: "I don't have one."
Citizen: "Then by what authority—"

Officer: "SILENCE! Everyone on social media agrees with me!"

You'd call that tyranny. You'd call that unauthorized enforcement. You'd call that absurd.

Yet this is precisely what's happening when self-appointed "Date Setting Police" condemn believers for obeying Scripture's repeated, explicit, non-negotiable commands to watch, be alert, and anticipate Christ's return.

The charges?

Studying biblical feast days.
Researching prophetic patterns.
Being excited about the Harpazo.
Loving Christ's appearing.

You know—the things Scripture explicitly commands.

The evidence? One verse. Taken out of context. Misapplied. Weaponized.

The trial? Public mockery. Social media shaming. Denominational disapproval.

The verdict? Predetermined before the "arrest."

The sentence? Silence. Ridicule. Spiritual intimidation.

The appeal process? There isn't one.

Now here's where it gets simultaneously hilarious and sobering: These unauthorized enforcers are using Matthew 24:36—"no one knows the day or hour"—as if it's a prohibition against watching, when it's actually a Jewish idiom referring to the Feast of Trumpets that Jesus used to tell us WHICH feast to watch for.

It's like a fire chief saying, "When you see smoke, do NOT look for fire. Just ignore it. Anyone who investigates smoke is violating fire safety protocols."

Absurd? Absolutely.

Happening right now? Unfortunately, yes.

Supported by Scripture? Not even remotely.

In September 2025, we watched this farce reach prophetic proportions. When believers around the globe studied feast days and anticipated the Harpazo, the response wasn't correction—it was condemnation. Not guidance—mockery. Not pastoral care—public shaming.

And here's the kicker: While the "Date Setting Police" were busy mocking watchers, they were literally fulfilling 2 Peter 3:3-4 in real-time: "In the last days mockers will come with their mocking, saying, 'Where is the promise of His coming?'"

They became the prophecy they claimed to protect.

So let's conduct an official investigation. This is a five-alarm situation requiring immediate attention:

ALARM 1: Who authorized the "Date Setting Police"?

ALARM 2: What biblical court do they represent?

ALARM 3: By what Scripture do they prosecute?

ALARM 4: Why are they mocking what Jesus commanded?

ALARM 5: Are they aware they're fulfilling end-times prophecy?

What follows is not a casual Bible study. This is a full-scale scriptural audit of unauthorized spiritual authority. We're going to examine the complete absence of biblical warrant for the "Date Setting Police," expose their self-appointed jurisdiction, and demonstrate that they're not protecting the Church—they're opposing Christ's clear commands while simultaneously fulfilling the very prophecies about end-times mockers.

Fair warning: This investigation will be conducted with the urgency of a fire chief directing emergency operations, the precision of a biblical archeologist uncovering truth, the seriousness of eternal consequences, and the unflinching honesty of Scripture itself.

Because here's what's actually at stake: Believers are being intimidated into disobeying Christ's direct commands.

That's not funny. That's not acceptable. That's not biblical.

And it needs to stop.

So buckle up. Check your presuppositions at the door. Bring your Bible. We're going in.

All personnel to stations. This is not a drill. Scripture will be our only authority. Truth will be our only objective. And the "Date Setting Police" are about to discover they've been operating in a jurisdiction they were never authorized to enter.

Matthew 23:8-10 sets the foundation: "But do not be called Rabbi; for One is your Teacher, and you are all brothers... Do not be called leaders; for One is your Leader, that is, Christ."

James 4:12 asks the question that ends the investigation before it begins: "There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the One who is able to save and to destroy; but who are you who judge your neighbor?"

The answer? Nobody. With no authority. Operating on presumption. Contradicting Scripture. Fulfilling prophecy. And about to be exposed.
Let's begin.

What follows is the complete biblical case that dismantles every argument of the "Date Setting Police," vindicates the watchers, and calls the mockers to repentance before they stand at Christ's judgment seat and discover they were on the wrong side of His explicit commands all along.

THE BIBLICAL RECORD Exposing the “Date-Setting Police” and Defending the Watchers

The Log and the Speck - Rebuking the Rebukers

Matthew 7:3-5 “Why do you look at the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ and behold, the log is in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye.”

This is the PERFECT rebuke to those who condemn watchers and students of prophecy.

Romans 14:10-13 “But you, why do you judge your brother? Or you again, why do you regard your brother with contempt? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God… Therefore let us not judge one another anymore, but rather determine this—not to put an obstacle or a stumbling block in a brother’s way.”

The “Date Setting Police” are placing stumbling blocks before believers who are obeying Scripture’s command to watch!

Our Blessed Hope - The Biblical Foundation

Titus 2:13 “looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus”

1 John 3:2-3 “Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not appeared as yet what we will be. We know that when He appears, we will be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is. And everyone who has this hope fixed on Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.”

2 Timothy 4:8 “in the future there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day; and not only to me, but also to all who have loved His appearing.”

Scripture commands us to LOVE His appearing - not ignore it, not be indifferent to it, but to LOVE IT!

Hebrews 9:28 “so Christ also, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time for salvation without reference to sin, to those who eagerly await Him.”

Commands to Watch, Wait, and Endure

Luke 21:36 “But keep on the alert at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are about to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.”

Notice: Those who watch are promised ESCAPE from what’s coming!

Revelation 3:10 “Because you have kept the word of My perseverance, I also will keep you from the hour of testing, that hour which is about to come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.”

Matthew 24:13 “But the one who endures to the end, he will be saved.”

James 5:7-8 “Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. The farmer waits for the precious produce of the soil, being patient about it, until it gets the early and late rains. You too be patient; strengthen your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is near.”

Hebrews 10:36-37 “For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised. FOR YET IN A VERY LITTLE WHILE, HE WHO IS COMING WILL COME, AND WILL NOT DELAY.”

The Viral September 2025 Mass Arrests

What Actually Happened

Based on the research, here’s what occurred:

South African Pastor Joshua Mhlakela claimed in a June 2025 interview that Jesus appeared to him saying He would return on September 23-24, 2025 during the Feast of Trumpets, and this prophecy went viral with over 321,000 TikTok posts under RaptureTok.

The Date Setting Police vultures were out immediately circiling, mocking from above, circling, waiting for their victim to die so they can eat death. THAT IS WHAT HAPPENED, AND IS STILL HAPPENING.

Some believers sold belongings and prepared for the event, and when it didn’t occur, several pastors who promoted the prediction apologized.

Pastor Vladimir Savchuk stated “If someone sets the date, they are directly contradicting Jesus’s word,” and another pastor, Tilahun Desalegn, said “I will never publicly talk about the rapture again” .

One article dismissed the entire matter, with a comment stating “it’s not really any sillier than Pentecostal doctrine in general,” showing contempt for those watching.

The Mocking Spirit Fulfilled Prophecy

The level of mockery was so intense that many scholars recognized it as fulfillment of 2 Peter 3:3-4:

2 Peter 3:3-4 “Know this first of all, that in the last days mockers will come with their mocking, following after their own lusts, and saying, ‘Where is the promise of His coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all continues just as it was from the beginning of creation.’”

The mockers weren’t just disagreeing - they were ridiculing, shaming, and attempting to silence those who were watching.

The Critical Distinction - False Prophecy vs. Biblical Watching

Here’s what needs to be clearly understood:

Joshua Mhlakela’s error was claiming a PERSONAL VISION from Jesus giving a specific date.This is indeed problematic under:

Deuteronomy 18:22 “When a prophet speaks in the name of the LORD, if the thing does not come about or come true, that is the thing which the LORD has not spoken. The prophet has spoken it presumptuously; you shall not be afraid of him.”

HOWEVER - This does NOT justify MASS ARRESTS to validate condemning all believers who:

Study feast day patterns
Watch for prophetic fulfillment
Anticipate the Harpazo on biblical feast dates
Research calendar discrepancies
Get excited about potential timing

These are BIBLICAL activities that Scripture commands!

The October 2-6, 2025 Reality

This is where it gets crucial:

According to biblical scholars using the original solar calendar from the Book of Enoch and Dead Sea Scrolls, the feast dates differ from the modern Jewish calendar introduced after Hellenistic influence .

Many believers weren’t just following Joshua’s vision - they were studying biblical calendars and recognizing that the true Feast of Trumpets according to the biblical (not modern Jewish) calendar may fall in October 2025.

This is legitimate biblical scholarship, NOT false prophecy!

If You Were Satan…

Let’s think strategically from a spiritual warfare perspective:

Would Satan Want Date Watchers Silenced?

Absolutely YES. Here’s why:

1. Watchers Are Awake

1 Thessalonians 5:4-6 “But you, brethren, are not in darkness, that the day would overtake you like a thief; for you are all sons of light and sons of day. We are not of night nor of darkness; so then let us not sleep as others do, but let us be alert and sober.”

Satan wants believers ASLEEP, not alert.

2. Watchers Are Holy

1 John 3:3 “And everyone who has this hope fixed on Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.”

Those anticipating Christ’s return live more holy lives.

3. Watchers Escape Deception

Matthew 24:4 “And Jesus answered and said to them, ‘See to it that no one misleads you.’”

Those watching are less likely to be deceived.

4. Watchers Threaten the Kingdom of Darkness

Ephesians 5:14 “For this reason it says, ‘Awake, sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.’”

Satan needs believers spiritually asleep and earthly-minded.

Satan’s Strategy: Shame the Watchers

By creating a culture where studying prophetic timing is mocked and shamed, Satan accomplishes:

Silences biblical study
Creates fear of being ridiculed
Keeps believers focused on earthly things
Prevents preparation and holy living
Stops evangelistic urgency

The “Date Setting Police” are doing Satan’s work, whether they realize it or not.

If You Were Jesus…

Would date watching be offensive to Jesus?

Let’s look at what Jesus actually said:

Luke 12:36-37 “Be like men who are waiting for their master when he returns from the wedding feast, so that they may immediately open the door to him when he comes and knocks. Blessed are those slaves whom the master will find on the alert when he comes”

Jesus BLESSES those watching for Him!

Luke 12:43 “Blessed is that slave whom his master finds so doing when he comes.”

Matthew 25:10 “And while they were going away to make the purchase, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding feast; and the door was shut.”

The wise virgins who were WATCHING and READY went in. The foolish who weren’t watching were shut out.

Would Jesus be offended by His Bride eagerly anticipating His return? Absolutely not!

Song of Solomon 8:14 “Hurry, my beloved, and be like a gazelle or a young stag on the mountains of spices.”

The bride LONGS for the bridegroom’s return!

Who Is Satan Cheering For?

Satan is cheering for the MOCKERS. Here’s the biblical proof:

2 Peter 2:1 “But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will also be false teachers among you, who will secretly introduce destructive heresies”

The “destructive heresy” is convincing believers NOT to watch for Christ’s return!

Luke 12:45-46 “But if that slave says in his heart, ‘My master will be a long time in coming,’ and begins to beat the slaves, both men and women, and to eat and drink and get drunk; the master of that slave will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he does not know, and will cut him in pieces, and assign him a place with the unbelievers.”

Notice: The evil servant doesn’t watch, delays the master’s return in his mind, and BEATS the other servants!

This perfectly describes the “date-setting police” - they’ve decided the Master is delayed and are “beating” (mocking, shaming, rebuking) the watching servants!

Is There ANY Biblical Support for Mockers?

The answer is a resounding NO. Every reference to mockers is NEGATIVE:

Proverbs 9:7-8 “He who corrects a scoffer gets dishonor for himself, and he who reproves a wicked man gets insults for himself. Do not reprove a scoffer, or he will hate you”

Proverbs 13:1 “A wise son accepts his father’s discipline, but a scoffer does not listen to rebuke.”

Proverbs 14:6 “A scoffer seeks wisdom and finds none, but knowledge is easy to one who has understanding.”

Proverbs 21:24 ”‘Proud,’ ‘Haughty,’ ‘Scoffer,’ are his names, who acts with insolent pride.”

Isaiah 29:20 “For the ruthless will come to an end and the scorner will be finished”

Jude 18 “that they were saying to you, ‘In the last time there will be mockers, following after their own ungodly lusts.’”

Every single reference identifies mockers as wicked, prideful, and opposed to God’s truth.

The Lazy, Carnal Christian Problem

Most Christians are lazy, they do not know their Bible, at all, act carnal, and are highly opinionated:

2 Timothy 4:3-4 “For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires, and will turn away their ears from the truth and will turn aside to myths.”

Hebrews 5:12 “For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you have need again for someone to teach you the elementary principles of the oracles of God, and you have come to need milk and not solid food.”

Most Christians don’t study Scripture deeply. They:

Accept denominational traditions over biblical truth

Don’t understand prophetic patterns

Dismiss the Harpazo/Rapture despite clear biblical teaching

Mock what they don’t understand

This is exactly what Satan wants.

The Rapture Deniers

Many denominations actively deny the Harpazo, despite clear biblical teaching:

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 “For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall always be with the Lord.”

The Greek word “harpazo” means “to snatch away, to seize, to catch up.”

John 14:2-3 “In My Father’s house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you. If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also.”

1 Corinthians 15:51-52 “Behold, I tell you a mystery; we will not all sleep, but we will all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.”

The Harpazo is clearly biblical. Denying it requires ignoring multiple clear passages.

Setting the Record Straight - The Real Story

Here’s what actually happened in September 2025:

A pastor claimed a personal visiongiving a specific date (this is problematic)

The message went viralbecause believers are hungry for Christ’s return

Many believers weren’t following the vision but were studying biblical calendarsand feast patterns (this is biblical)

The modern Jewish calendar date passed (Sept 23-24)

Mockers erupted in condemnation, ridiculing ALL watchers and students of prophecy

Biblical scholars pointed outthe true biblical calendar shows October 2-6, 2025

The mockers fulfilled 2 Peter 3:3-4- end times scoffers saying “where is the promise of His coming?”

The REAL story is:

False: Following someone's personal visions instead of seeking God on your own

Biblical: Studying God’s appointed feast days and watching for prophetic fulfillment

Satanic: Mocking, shaming, and silencing those who watch

Prophetic: The level of mockery itself fulfilled end-times prophecy

A Call to Repentance for the Mockers

To those who have mocked, ridiculed, and shamed the watchers:

James 4:17 “Therefore, to one who knows the right thing to do and does not do it, to him it is sin.”

You have sinned by:

Disobeying Jesus’ command to watch (Matthew 24:42, Mark 13:37, Luke 21:36)

Judging other believers without biblical foundation or authority (Romans 14:4, James 4:12)

Fulfilling the prophecy of end-times mockers (2 Peter 3:3, Jude 18)

Placing stumbling blocks before believers (Romans 14:13)

Doing Satan’s work by silencing watchers (1 Peter 5:8)

The path to restoration:

1 John 1:9 “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”

Repent of:

Mocking fellow believers
Condemning biblical study
Claiming authority you don’t have
Discouraging watchfulness
Opposing God’s clear commands

Return to:

Studying Scripture diligently
Watching and being alert
Loving Christ’s appearing
Encouraging fellow believers
Anticipating the Harpazo

The Final Verdict from Scripture

WHO IS RIGHT?

Jesus’ Called Watchers are right, so follow their example:

They obey Scripture’s command to watch
They study God’s appointed times
They love Christ’s appearing
They live holy in anticipation
They follow biblical examples

The Mockers are wrong:

They disobey Scripture’s commands
They fulfill end-times prophecy negatively
They serve Satan’s purposes
They have no biblical authority
They will answer to Christ

Romans 14:12 “So then each one of us will give an account of himself to God.”

The “date-setting police” will stand before Jesus and answer for:

Mocking His bride who eagerly awaited Him
Discouraging biblical study and watchfulness
Causing believers to stumble
Opposing His clear commands

The watchers will hear:

Luke 12:37 “Blessed are those slaves whom the master will find on the alert when he comes; truly I say to you, that he will gird himself to serve, and have them recline at the table, and will come up and wait on them.”

The Biblical Record Is Clear

Scripture overwhelmingly:

Commands watching and being alert
Blesses those who watch
Warns against mockers and scoffers
Provides examples of date study (Daniel, etc.)
Gives no authority to silence watchers
Identifies mockers as end-times sign

The September 2024/2025 event exposed:

The hunger for Christ’s return
The need for biblical literacy
The fulfillment of mocking prophecy
The spiritual warfare over watchfulness
The ongoing debate over biblical calendars

The true Feast of Trumpets (October 2-6, 2025 on biblical calendars) remains ahead.

Will the mockers repent, or will they continue fulfilling prophecy as end-times scoffers?

Will believers continue watching despite mockery, or will they be shamed into silence?

The biblical record is clear: WATCH, WAIT, BE ALERT, LOVE HIS APPEARING.

Maranatha - Come, Lord Jesus!
