Like most here I felt a bit crushed when we didn't leave here on the 23rd or 24th. However I was soon drawn into the idea of it happening on the day of Atonement (aware I may be setting myself up for dissappointment again). But I feel the Lord has been laying on my mind the story of Noah. He went into the ark, the Lord closed the door and the rain didn't come for seven days. In those seven days no one could get into the ark from outside even if they wanted to. It's unlikely anyone did want to and they likely banged against the ark and yelled taunts. In the same way I feel that although we are not inside something physical like the ark there is a sense of a door being closed and no one being able to enter in during these last days. After all who's going to jump aboard with "those idiots who thought the world was going to end." (Note: I'm aware that no one did say that but looking at it through an unbelieving fake news buying perspective). If the ark door analogy is correct it would follow that no one inside would get out either. In the past people have probably fallen away after the failure of certain dates but I believe that everyone who has been watching for this period, although likely disappointed by the 23rd/24th failure has still been made aware of how close we are to the end and is still looking up. Although I suspect the door may be closed I am by no means discouraging you from talking to those on the "outside." Just be aware it may be too late to save them from being left behind. But unlike the flood they are not about to die and you may give them enough clues to become tribulation saints. You can also pray of course and leave material for them to find (my strategy). And of course I may be wrong and it could be a case of this door closing silmultaneously with departure.
