 Let’s pray

Today we use the Gregorian calendar from Pope Gregory; from the 1500’s,

 

December 6, 2014

 

December -- the tenth month (now the 12th month)

Middle English decembre
Old French decembre
Latin december "tenth month"
Latin decem "ten" + -ber (adj. suffix)

December had 30 days, until Numa when it had 29 days, until Julius when it became 31 days long.

----------------------------------------------------

Yehovah has His own calendar

 

We are now in the 9th month called Chislev כִסְלֵו

12th day

Zech.7 [1] And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Darius, that the word of  Yehovah came unto Zechariah in the fourth day of the ninth month, even in Chisleu / Chislev

 Remember, “tis the season to be pagan” Lies are all around us, beware!

 

Beware of the false image of love and the false feelings and emotions that run wild. False lights and music are everywhere.

These feasts that are not scriptural bring on loneliness, depression and suicide and oh yes, debt for years to come.

 

We are commanded by God

Learn not the way of the heathen

 

Jer.10 [2] Thus saith Yehovah, Learn not the way of the heathen , and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them. The customs of the people are vain [3] For the customs of the people are vain:

---------------------------------

Today's Topic:

 

The battle between:

The True Light

 and Darkness, the artificial light

 

The True Image

 and the artificial image

-------------------------------------------

Of all the books in the world, I believe the Bible is the only book that has genuine fulfilled prophecy and true shadows of future events. This is proof of the divine inspiration from God.

By shadows, I mean forecasts, whether direct or indirect of past, fulfilled prophecy, and future events that are prophesied yet to come.

 

As all the unscriptural holidays of the world approach, I am reminded again to inform you to beware of the false image of love, false emotions, loneliness, depression, financial drain, suicide and the artificial false festival lights they put up. They really set the stage for you.

 

Remember, Satan is the prince of the power of the air.

-----------------------

 

Let’s begin:

Gen.1 [26] And God said, Let us make   נַעֲשֶׂה   -

 

(verb - qal imperfect 1st person common plural cohortative in meaning)

 

man in our image, after our likeness:

 

בְּצַלְמֵנוּ כִּדְמוּתֵנוּ

 

and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

[27] So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them

 וַיִּבְרָא אֱלֹהִים אֶת-הָאָדָם בְּצַלְמוֹ, בְּצֶלֶם אֱלֹהִים בָּרָא אֹתוֹ

 

Gen. 9:6 …for in the image of God made He man.

כִּי בְּצֶלֶם אֱלֹהִים, עָשָׂה אֶת-הָאָדָם

---------------

 

Messiah - is the “image” of the invisible God

Col.1

[12] Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
[
13] Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son, Word made flesh:
[
14] In whom we have redemption through (the son’s) his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:

[15] Messiah - Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:

[16] For by him (the son, the Word) were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: (the son, the Word)
[
17] And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
[
18] And he (the son, the Word) is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.
[
19] For it pleased the Father that in him(the son, the Word)  should all fulness dwell;
[
20] And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.

------------

Now let's talk about day and night and the seasons.

Below I have put together a few verses to show pictures, shadows and forecasts to show the many ways the words darkness and light are used.

 

Shadows of the resurrection of the Sun, Son – Messiah

 

I have always thought of the rising of the sun in the mornings as the shadow of the Messiah's resurrection and the Sun of God arising in a hearts.

Mal.4 [2] But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings;

שֶׁמֶשׁ צְדָקָה

 

Night and darkness with its sleep, rest, and quietness seemed to suggest symbols of death.

 

The sunrise, light and the awakening of the next morning are to me, a constant reminder of life and the resurrection.

 

As we know, even the winter months are symbols of death.

Everything is frozen, dead, no life.

The Gregorian calendar New Year is in January, winter

 

God's New Year is in Spring, a symbol of life.

Everything arises and is born again, does that sound familiar?

 

God's New Year is in Exod. 12:1-2   (before Passover, Feast of Unleavened Bread and First fruits, the resurrection)

Exod.12

[1] And Yehovah spake unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,
[2] This month shall be unto you the beginning of months:

 it shall be the first month of the year to you.

------------------------

 

Out of darkness, death come “Life”

 

Messiah is the First Fruits

 

1 Cor.15 [23] … Messiah the first fruits

1 Cor.15 [20] But now is Messiah risen from the dead, and become the first fruits of them that slept. (dead)

-------------------------------

 

Messiah is the resurrection

John 11[24] …[25] Yeshua said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:

-----------------------------

 

Messiah is the Light of this world

John 8 [12] Then spake Yeshua again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

John.9 [5] As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.

1 John 1[5] … God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

--------------

 

Out of darkness, death cometh the light, life

 

Gen.1 [1] In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
[2] And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep.

 And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

[3] And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

[4] And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

[5] And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night.

 

And the evening and the morning were the first day.

 

[16] And God made two great lights;

the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night:

he made the stars also.

 

[17] And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,

[18] And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.

 

We are children of light, the day

 

1Thes. 5 [5] Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.

---------------------

 

Pictures, examples of darkness, death and life are everywhere

 

We are children of Light, Life – the Resurrection

Luke [34] And Yeshua answering said unto them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage:

[35] But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:

[36] Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.

[37] Now that the dead are raised, even Moses shewed at the bush, when he calleth the Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.

[38] For he is not a God of the dead, but of the living: for all live unto him.

------------------------

1 John 3

[1] Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God:

 therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

[2] Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

[3] And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.

[4] Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.

[5] And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.

[6] Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth (willfully) hath not seen him, neither known him.

[7] Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

[8] He that committeth (willful) sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning.

 For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

[9] Whosoever is born of God doth not commit (willful) sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin (willful), because he is born of God.

[10] In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil:

whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God,

 neither he that loveth not his brother.

[11] For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.
[12] Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous.

[13] Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.

[14] We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren.

He that loveth not his brother abideth in death.

[15] Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.

[16] Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

[17] But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?

[18] My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.

[19] And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.

[20] For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.

[21] Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God.
[22] And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.

[23] And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Yeshua the Messiah, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.

[24] And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him.

And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.

------------------

John 5 [29] And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the

resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.

 

1 Pet. 2 [9] But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:

 

2 Pet. 1 [19] We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts

 

 

We are lights of this world

 

Matt.5 [14] Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

[15] Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all at are in the house.

[16] Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

 

Messiah - Luke.1 [79] To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace

 

Messiah - Luke 2 [32] A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel

 

Luke 11 [33] No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light.

[34] The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.

 

Which are you above?

 

[35] Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness.

[36] If thy whole body therefore be full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light.

------------------

Mat. 6 [22] The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.

[23] But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness,

 how great is that darkness!

---------------------

2 Tim. 1 [8] Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God;

[9] Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Messiah Yeshua before the world began,

[10] But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Savior Yeshua the Messiah, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel Whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.

 

John 1 [4] In Yeshua is life; and the life was the light of men.[5] And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

[7] The John came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.

[8] John was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.[9] That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

 

John 3 [19] And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.[20] For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.[21] But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

 

 John 5 [35] John was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.

 

John 11 [9] Yeshua answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day?

If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.

[10] But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.

 

The children of light

 

John 12 [35] Then Yeshua said unto them, Yet a little while is the light with you.

Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you:

for he that walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth.

[36] While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light

[46] I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.

 

Paul was sent to be a light

 

Acts 13 [47] For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth.

 

Acts 26 [13] At midday, O king, I Saul saw in the way a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them which journeyed with me.

[14] And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

[15] And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Yeshua whom thou persecutest.

[16] But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee;
[17] Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee,

[18] To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.


[19] Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient unto the heavenly vision:

[20] But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance.

[21] For these causes the Jews caught me in the temple, and went about to kill me.
[22] Having therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come:

[23] That Messiah should suffer, and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles.

-------------------------------

 

Jas.1 [17] Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

 

1 Tim. 6 [12] Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life,

whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.

[13] I give thee charge in the sight of God, who quickeneth all things, and before Messiah Yeshua, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession;
[14] That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah:

[15] Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;

[16] Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.

 

Messiah - Matt.4 [16] The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.

-----------------

And now

 

The artificial light, false image engulfing the world

 

The NIV calls Lucifer, "Jesus / Yeshua" in Isaiah 14:12

הֵילֵל בֶּן־שָׁחַר

הֵילֵל  (hay root ה  )

ילֵל  weeping, crying, howling, extreme sadness, ( yod rootי  )

בֶּן   son

שָׁחַר  black, darkness of the morning

In the Hebrew text, the word for star, כּוֹכָב   is not there! Just look above.

 

Everybody should know the word "Lucifer" is another name for Satan. The word "Lucifer" is found one time in the King James Bible.

 

KJV - Isaiah 14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

 

KJV - Revelation 22:16: I Yeshua have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.

 

--------------------------------------------

 Son of the blackness

בֶּן-שָׁחַר

שׁחר  shâchar - A primitive root - the idea of the duskiness of early dawn); to be dim or dark (in color): - be black.

 

Isa.14 [12] How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! Son of the blackness how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

 

אֵיךְ נָפַלְתָּ מִשָּׁמַיִם, הֵילֵל בֶּן-שָׁחַר; נִגְדַּעְתָּ לָאָרֶץ, חוֹלֵשׁ עַל-גּוֹיִם

 

Isaiah 14:12 .Eych  na-fal-ta  mi-sha-ma-yim  hei-lel  ben-sha-char  nig-da-ata   la-a-retz   cho-lesh  al-go-yim

 

2 Cor. 11[14] And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.

 

[15] Therefore it is no great thing if Satan’s ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

 

Satan - angel of "artificial" light

Satan’s ministers - ministers of righteousness

 Angels of “artificial” light

ἄγγελος aggelos - ang'-el-os - a messenger; especially an “angel”; by implication a pastor: - angel, messenger

φῶς - phōsfoce- to shine or make manifest, especially by rays; luminousness (in the widest application, natural or artificial, abstract or concrete, literal or figurative): - fire, light.

 

Satan – angel, spirit of "artificial" light

 

The following passages in the NIV bible show the words "morning star" as Yeshua and satan.

Remember, in the Hebrew text, the word for star, כּוֹכָב  

is not there!

 

In the NIV, the word "Lucifer" is gone and this evil creature is identified as the "morning star".

 

NIV -Isaiah 14:12 How you have fallen from heaven, O morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations!

NIV: Revelation 22:16 - " I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you [1] this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star

 

These false Bibles below turned Satan into the "morning star" which is Yeshua.

 

This is very evil

 

Also the words "star and day star" are not in the Hebrew scripture.

 

 

ASV Isaiah 14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O day-star, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, that didst lay low the nations!

 

BBE Isaiah 14:12 How great is your fall from heaven, O shining one, son of the morning! How are you cut down to the earth, low among the dead bodies!

 

 

ESV Isaiah 14:12 "How you are fallen from heaven, O Day Star, son of Dawn! How you are cut down to the ground, you who laid the nations low!

 

 

JPS Isaiah 14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O day-star, son of the morning! How art thou cut down to the ground, that didst cast lots over the nations!

 

NAB Isaiah 14:12 How have you fallen from the heavens, O morning star, son of the dawn! How are you cut down to the ground, you who mowed down the nations!

 

NAS Isaiah 14:12 "How you have fallen from heaven, O star of the morning, son of the dawn! You have been cut down to the earth, You who have weakened the nations!

 

NAU Isaiah 14:12 "How you have fallen from heaven, O star of the morning, son of the dawn! You have been cut down to the earth, You who have weakened the nations!

 

NET Isaiah 14:12 Look how you have fallen from the sky, O shining one, son of the dawn! You've been cut down to the ground, O conqueror of the nations!

 

NIB Isaiah 14:12 How you have fallen from heaven, O morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations!

 

NIV Isaiah 14:12 How you have fallen from heaven, O morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations!

 

NJB Isaiah 14:12 How did you come to fall from the heavens, Daystar, son of Dawn? How did you come to be thrown to the ground, conqueror of nations?

 

NLT Isaiah 14:12 "How you are fallen from heaven, O shining star, son of the morning! You have been thrown down to the earth, you who destroyed the nations of the world.

 

NRS Isaiah 14:12 How you are fallen from heaven, O Day Star, son of Dawn! How you are cut down to the ground, you who laid the nations low!

 

RSV Isaiah 14:12 "How you are fallen from heaven, O Day Star, son of Dawn! How you are cut down to the ground, you who laid the nations low!

 

TNK Isaiah 14:12 How are you fallen from heaven, O Shining One, son of Dawn! How are you felled to earth, O vanquisher of nations!

 

YLT Isaiah 14:12 How hast thou fallen from the heavens, O shining one, son of the dawn! Thou hast been cut down to earth, O weakener of nations.

This is just some of the polluted bibles above, there are many more.

 

-----------------------------

In closing: 

Remember, “tis the season to be pagan”.

 

Beware of the false artificial light, the artificial shining one - Satan!

Satan is the son of the “blackness” of the morning

 

Lies are all around us, beware!

Beware of the false image of love, the artificial lights, music and the false feelings and emotions that run wild.

These unscriptural feasts bring on loneliness, depression and suicide and oh yes, debt for years to come.

They really set the stage for you.

 

Beware!

Shabbat Shalom
