Dear Brothers, Sisters, Prodigals and Unsaved
For those who
follow the Feasts in the Bible, Rosh Hashanah, is
claimed the Jewish New Year, but in truth the Bible doesn't say that [I'll
explain more below]. In English we call
it the Feast of Trumpets. Since this year it's on Sunday, September 9-11th
[sunset-sunset], We'll be celebrating together with the Bible Study and my Pastor,
Allan and his wife Carmen on Monday 6 pm - till Lord leads.
I use to believe Passover was the only Feast
with specific food requirements [Lamb and no leavening].
Otherwise anything goes - it's a party for the lives of the Israelite's
protected from the last plague being the death of the 1st born child throughout Egypt, when they were delivered out of Egypt by Moses.
There are several reasons for blowing the trumpets;
such as calling the people to gather, possibly for a memorial when the law of Moses
was given, not to be forgotten, some think it's a memorial of the creation of
the world, and of course for the Sabbath, and Feasts. This was both a memorial of trumpets blowing
and people shouting [Job 38:6-7].
I just received my Levitt Letter explaining Rosh Hashanah
better than I can in a Christianly format by Ron Cantor of Messiahs Mandate.
So I've typed it into the blog for you to read:
Rosh Hashanah, the
Jewish New Year. It is a joyous time
when Jews greet each other with Shana Tova and Ketiva VaChatima Tova = Happy New Year and May you be inscribed for
a good year. Here is the
problem. According to the Bible, Rosh Hashanah comes on the first day of the seventh
month!
[Leviticus 23:23-25 NKJV] 23 Then
the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 24 "Speak to the children of Israel ,
saying: 'In the seventh month, on the first [day] of the month, you shall have
a sabbath-[rest], a memorial of blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation.
25 'You shall do no customary work [on it]; and you shall offer
an offering made by fire to the LORD.' "
The first day of
the seventh month is actually as far as you can be from their New Year. Furthermore, there isn't even a hint in the
passage above that it is a New Year. The
words "Rosh Hashanah" are nowhere to be found. It is hard to image that God expected Jews to
celebrate a New Year that doesn't exist.
In truth, the name of the holiday celebrated on the first day of the
seventh month is Yom Teruah - the Day of
Blasting Shofars or Feast of Trumpets.
Why the Name
Change? If you read the passage
again, one thing is clear - it is not clear!
Jews have no idea what we are celebrating. Every other Jewish holiday is clear, but Yom
Teruah simply tells us to have a memorial with the blasting of the
shofars. I think this made the religious
establishment uneasy and thus it became the New Year.
What Is Its
True Meaning? I am convinced the
ambiguity had a reason. All New Testament
[NT] theology is rooted in the Hebrew Scriptures. The New Covenant brings understanding when it
speaks clearly about trumpet blasts.
[Matthew 24:31 NKJV] "And
He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will
gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to
the other."
[1 Corinthians 15:52 NKJV] "in
a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet
will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed."
We who are still
alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede
those who have fallen asleep. For the
Lord Himself will come down from Heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of
the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Messiah will
rise first. After that, we who are alive
will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the
air. And so we will be with the Lord
forever. 1 Thessalonians 4:15-17.
In the light of
the New Covenant, we can see that the Feast of Trumpets [Yom Teruah] is not
about remembering something that happened, in the past [like Passover or
Purim], but a reminder of what will happen in the future.
The Feast of
Trumpets points to the coming of Yeshua, our being transformed from corruptible
to incorruptible, the beginning of the Messianic Age, and the setting up of the
Lord's government in Jerusalem, fulfilling what the disciples asked about in [Acts 1:6 NKJV] "Therefore,
when they had come together, they asked Him, saying, "Lord, will You
at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?" Many mocked the disciples for asking this,
but Yeshua did not. He merely said that
God knows the timing.
I am not saying
that the Lord will return on the Feast of Trumpets - no man knows the day or
hour - BUT I can confidently conclude that this is a day when every Believer
should cry out COME YESHUA, COME! We
should blow the trumpets [shofars] and express our longing for redemption - not
just the forgiveness of our sins, but the transformation of our bodies and this
Earth.
While we cannot
force the Lord's return, we can hasten it [Acts
1:6 NKJV] "Therefore, when they had come together, they asked Him,
saying, "Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel ?" Paul wrote to Titus [Titus 2:13-14 NKJV] 13 "looking for the blessed hope and glorious
appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, 14 who
gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify
for Himself [His] own special people, zealous for good works." Of course for us Christians, we await the
appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Yeshua Ha [the] Messiah.
Especially during
Rosh Hashanah, take some time to pour out your heart to God and tell Him of
your longing for Yeshua's return. One
day [wouldn't it be great, if it were this Feast of Trumpets!!!] the Trumpet will blast and we will
meet Yeshua in the air [1 Thessalonians 4:16 -18 NKJV] 16 "For the Lord Himself will
descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the
trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then
we who are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the
clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. 18 Therefore
comfort one another with these words."
For me, I always
wondered why they had 2 New Year Celebrations.
The Feast of Trumpets, is actually a Day of the AWAKENING, BLAST to
celebrate that we will have a new year awakened with God's peace, joy, health,
and provisions in God's presence and a renewal in Him. PRAISE THE LORD!!!!! It truly is in HIS HANDS. [Joel
2:1-2 NKJV] 1 "Blow the trumpet in Zion , And
sound an alarm in My holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the
land tremble; For the day of the LORD is coming, For it is at hand: 2 A
day of darkness and gloominess, A day of clouds and thick darkness, Like the
morning [clouds] spread over the mountains. A people [come], great and
strong, The like of whom has never been; Nor will there ever be any
[such] after them, Even for many successive generations."
Those who have
been following the blog, know that the ministry I've been given is to teach how
to use your authority He's given us, to endure daily, the trials of the
world. But for the last month or so,
He's changed it to ARE YOU READY, should He come during Feasts of Trumpets
sometime this year September 9th - 11th? He can come anytime the Father tells Him to - But we can HOPE!
Prodigals - come back quickly - time is
surely short. Most of us Christians have
been praying for this year, and should He come WILL YOU BE?
Unsaved - It's so easy to make your
choice. It only consists of going to
Heaven or Hell. God will not force you - since it's your decision, you will have to live with it, for ETERNITY - keep in mind your
spirit NEVER DIES - so it's forever and a day. In other blogs, I had many watch the video in YouTube, "23 Minutes In Hell - full video" you might want to watch that, before you make your choice.
Whatever sin you
have done can be covered under the blood of Jesus, and sent to the sea of
forgetfulness - so it will never be brought up for any judgment. All it takes is for you to Sincerely ask Jesus to be
your Savior, ask for forgiveness and to receive His Holy Spirit, then start
reading the Word for your instruction of how you should be living. [Most recommend newbie's to read the book of
John first.]
I gave you some
YouTube videos to watch for more info on how close we are to His return, you would have
seen it in the 2 YouTube videos from last Thursday.
This week, on YouTube, search out "Feast of Trumpets 2018". Clear your mind, and - Stop listening to the
world [devil], but listen to the truth written in His Word about 2,500 years
ago. Remember: [Daniel 12:3-4 NKJV] 3 "Those who are wise shall shine Like the
brightness of the firmament, And those who turn many to righteousness Like the
stars forever and ever. 4 "But you, Daniel, shut up the words,
and seal the book until the time of the end; many shall run to and fro, and
knowledge shall increase."
Would your grandparents or parents have realized the inventions in the
last 50 years alone? Such as; DNA, Airplanes,
Wifi, Drills, Cameras, Microwave ovens, remote controls on everything
electrical etc...? Mine had a
taste, but not the full experience, we have today.
Should any of you
want for information on the Feast of Trumpets, including the signs in Heaven
revealing the truth of His Word, or the fact that the Year Of Jubilee ends in
September - plus that scripture says in [Leviticus
25:29-30 NKJV] 29 'If a man sells a house in a walled city,
then he may redeem it within a whole year after it is sold; [within] a full
year he may redeem it. 30 'But if it is not redeemed within the space
of a full year, then the house in the walled city shall belong permanently
to him who bought it, throughout his generations. It shall not be released
in the Jubilee."
So Yeshua must
redeem the earth during a Jubilee and this Jubilee ends this September.
As usual, I'll
close with a prayer:
Father, in Jesus'
Name I ask that your prodigals and unsaved will make their decisions quickly,
so Your will, that none shall be lost, will outnumber those that the enemy has
in Hell presently. In Jesus' Name - AMEN! and
AMEN!
PS: I know I told you I'd give you a couple of
recipes for your Feast - see tomorrows Blog.
Blessing to ALL,
Sandy F.
The Lord's Servant
