Why does the following remind me of Horton Hears a Who?
Is pastor Biltz making the assumption that Yeshua is “hard of hearing” or perhaps is off doing something more interesting, like bowling with the angels or something… At any rate, there is no need to engage in such a foolish exercise. No one can force God’s hand or affect the day or time of the prophesied End of Days. Even Yeshua told us as much (Matt. 24:36, etc.)

Worldwide wave of horns, shouting planned in time zones across planet
An American pastor who made news in April by studying NASA’s eclipse calendar to speculate on the return of Jesus Christ to Earth is now planning a worldwide blast of trumpets this fall to get God’s attention.
Mark Biltz of El Shaddai Ministries in Bonney Lake, Wash., is organizing the global “Day of Shouting” for the evening of Sept. 29, marking the annual biblical holiday known as the Feast of Trumpets.
The event is still in its early planning stages, with Blitz posting this invitation on his website:
You know how at sporting events they have “the wave” where one group starts it and then it cycles all the way around back to the beginning? Do you remember how at the year 2000 they showed on television all the New Year celebrations going on around the world as the new millennium began? …Let’s have an around the world shofar assembly in every time zone on the Feast of Trumpets at sunset announcing to Messiah we are awake and anxiously anticipating His return. What a dress rehearsal! Won’t that stir His heart?
We will list on our website all the cities in the different time zones that are participating and hopefully we can get people from every tongue, tribe and nation participating as we join in proclaiming Yeshua (Jesus) as our coming King!
A shofar is a trumpet-like instrument made from the horn of a ram or other biblically clean animal, and was sounded not only at the new year and new moons, but also as a call to wake up and repent.
…
Since announcing his plan, Biltz told WND, “The response has been phenomenal with people responding from Arabic countries as well as Asia, Europe, Africa and America.”
Indeed, a chart of time zones and participants on his website shows residents in many time zones already signing up.
“Very happy to be part of this,” writes Dawn Piper of Durban, South Africa. “Maranatha!”
Trevia Jimenez of Brooklyn, N.Y. said, “This is so cool. You go, Pastor Mark!”
Mr. Blitz is the same guy who is advocating the return of the LORD during the Blood Red Moon of Sept., 2012… I suspect he thinks that this shofar blowing, etc., is a prelude of some kind to the return of Yeshua….
