Today, we sadly use the
Gregorian calendar from Pope Gregory; from the 1500’s.
Today is 1/20/2024
Yehovah has His own calendar which is deleted from the world
Shevat, the 11th month - Zach 1:7 - in English, scripture calls it Sebat,
day 8
Today’s topic:
Our God
The God of Abraham, and
the God of Nahor
I am the
God of Abraham your father
The God of Abraham,
the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob
Gen.26 [24] And Yehovah appeared unto him the
same night, and said, I am the God of Abraham your father: fear not, for I am with you, and will bless you,
and multiply your seed for my servant Abraham's sake.
Exod.3 [6] Moreover he said, I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of
Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look
upon God.
The only true God
Yehovah he is God; there
is none else beside
him
Deut.4 [35] Unto you it
was showed, that you might know that Yehovah he is God;
there is none else beside him.
[39] Know therefore
this day, and consider it in your heart, that Yehovah he is God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath: there is none else.
Deut.32 [39] See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no
god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal:
neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand. [40]
For I lift up my hand to heaven, and
say, I live forever.
1Kgs.8 [60] That all
the people of the earth may know that Yehovah is God,
and that there is none else.
Isa.43 [10] You are my
witnesses, said Yehovah,
and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and
understand that I am he: before me there
was no God formed,
neither shall there be after me.
Isa.44 [6] Thus said Yehovah the King of Israel, and his
redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me
there is no God.
[8] Fear ye not,
neither be afraid: have not I told you from that time,
and have declared it? ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no
God; I know not any.
Isa.45 [5] I
am Yehovah, and there is none else,
there is no God beside me: I girded you,
though you have not known me:
[6] That they may
know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I
am Yehovah, and there is none else.
[14] Thus said Yehovah, The labor of Egypt, and merchandise of Ethiopia
and of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over
unto you, and they shall be your: they shall come after you; in chains they
shall come over, and they shall fall down unto you, they shall make
supplication unto you, saying, Surely God is in you; and there is none else,
there is no God.
[18] For thus said Yehovah
that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he
had established it, he created it not in vain, he
formed it to be inhabited: I am Yehovah; and there
is none else.
[21] Tell you, and
bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this
from ancient time?
Who had told it from that
time? have not I Yehovah? and
there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Savior; there
is none beside me.
[22] Look unto me,
and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.
Isa.46 [9] Remember the former things of old:
for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there
is none like me,
Joel.2 [27] And ye
shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am Yehovah your God, and none
else: and my people shall never be ashamed.
Hos.13 [4] Yet
I am Yehovah
your God from the land of Egypt, and you shall
know no god but me:
for there is no savior beside me.
God is outside of our reality, creation and
universe
Psalm 113:4 Yehovah is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens.
Isaiah 40:22 [22] It is he that sits upon the circle
of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretched out the heavens as a
curtain, and spreads them out as a tent to dwell in:
1 Kings 8:27 “But will God indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the heaven
and heaven of heavens cannot contain you
Job 37:23 [23] Touching the
Almighty, we cannot find him out: he
is excellent in power, and in judgment, and in plenty of justice: he will not
afflict.
Isa.40 [28] Have
you not known? have you not heard, that the
everlasting God, Yehovah, the Creator of the ends of
the earth, faints not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.
Psalm 8:[1] O Yehovah our Lord, how excellent is your name in all the earth! who had set your glory above
the heavens.
Loving and serving Yehovah
Deut.6 [4] Hear, O Israel: Yehovah our God is Yehovah:
[5] And thou shall love Yehovah your
God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might.
[15] (For Yehovah your God
is a jealous God among you)
lest the anger of Yehovah
your God be kindled against you, and destroy you from off the face of the
earth.
Deut.7 [21] You shal not be affrighted at them: for Yehovah your God is among
you, a mighty God and terrible.
Deut.9 [3] Understand therefore this day, that
the LORD your God is he which goeth
over before you; as a consuming fire he shall destroy them, and he shall bring
them down before your face: so shall thou drive them out, and destroy them
quickly, as Yehovah
hath said unto you.
Deut.10 [17] For Yehovah your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a
great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth
not persons, nor taketh reward: [18]
He doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment.
[19] Love ye therefore the stranger: for ye were strangers in the land
of Egypt.
[20]You shall fear Yehovah your
God; him shall thou serve, and to him shall thou cleave, and swear by his name.
[21] He is your praise, and he is your God, that hath done for you these
great and terrible things, which your eyes have seen.
Deut.33 [27] The eternal God is your
refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms…
One God
Mal.2 [10] …. Had not one God created
us?
1Cor.8 [6] But to us there is but one
God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Yeshua the Messiah, by whom are all things, and we by him.
Eph.4 [6] One God and Father of all, who is above all and through all, and in you all.
1Tim.2 [5] For there is one
God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Messiah Yeshua;
Jas.2 [19] You believe that there is one
God; you do well: the devils also believe, and tremble.
Exod.3 [14] And God said unto Moses, I AM
THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shall you say unto the children of
Israel, I AM had sent me unto you.
וַיֹּאמֶר
אֱלֹהִים
אֶל־מֹשֶׁה אֶהְיֶה
אֲשֶׁר אֶהְיֶה
וַיֹּאמֶר
כֹּה תֹאמַר
לִבְנֵי
יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶהְיֶה
שְׁלָחַנִי
אֲלֵיכֶם׃
(Exod. 3:14)
הָיָה ha yah
Meaning: to be, exist… existence
John1 [1] In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 6 [35] And Yeshua said unto them, I am the bread
of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on
me shall never thirst.
John 8 [12] Then spake Yeshua again unto them,
saying, I am the light
of the world: he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have
the light of life.
John 10 [7] Then said Yeshua
unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I
am the door of the sheep.
John 10 [11] I am the good
shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the
sheep.
[36] Say ye of him, whom the Father
hath sanctified, and sent into the world, you blasphem;
because I said, I am the Son
/ Word of God?
John 11 [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:
John 14 [6] Yeshua saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father,
but by me.
John 15 [1] I am the true vine, and my Father is the
husbandman.
Rev.1 [17] And when I
saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying
unto me, Fear not; I am the first
and the last: [18] I am he that lives, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the
keys of hell and of death.
Rev.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.
Isa.41 [4] Who hath
wrought and done it, calling the generations from the beginning? I Yehovah, the
first, and with the last; I am he.
Isa.44 [6] Thus said Yehovah the King
of Israel, and his redeemer Yehovah of hosts; I
am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.
John 4 [24] God is a Spirit: and
they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth
Deut.4 [24] For Yehovah
your God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God.
[31] (For Yehovah your God is a merciful God;) he will not forsake you, neither destroy you, nor
forget the covenant of your fathers which he sware
unto them.
God requires
Deut.10 [12] And now, Israel, what doth Yehovah your God
require of you, but to fear Yehovah your
God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve Yehovah your God with all your
heart and with all your soul,
Ecc.3 [15] That which
had been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God
requires that which is past.
God’s Commandments
Exod.16 [28] And Yehovah said unto Moses, How
long refuse ye to keep my commandments and my laws?
Exod.20 [6] And showing
mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
Lev.22 [31] Therefore shall you keep my commandments, and do them: I am Yehovah.
Lev.26 [3] If you walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do
them; [4] Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land
shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.
Deut.5 [10] And showing
mercy unto thousands of them that love
me and keep my commandments.
Pss.111 [10] The fear of
Yehovah is
the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his
commandments: his praise endures
forever.
Rev.22 [14] Blessed are they that do his commandments,
that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the
gates into the city.
1 Timothy 1:17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honor and
glory forever and ever. Amen.
Eternal - αἰών aion {ahee-ohn'} Meaning: 1) forever,
an unbroken age, perpetuity (the state or quality of
lasting forever) , eternity
Usage: AV - ever 71, evermore 4, eternal 2, misc 5; 128 times
God gave us a:
Free will:
the power of acting without the constraint of
necessity or fate; the ability to act at one's own discretion.
Free moral agency:
is a concept that refers
to the ability and right of a person to act according to
his or her own judgment of what is right or wrong.
A free moral agent:
is not controlled by the will
of another, nor subject to arbitrary interference.
God made us sentient
beings - sentient - able to perceive or feel things
Some people sadly are:
Atheist:
a person who disbelieves in the existence of
God or gods
Madalyn Murray O'Hair Mays; April 13, 1919 –
September 29, 1995)
In 1963, she founded American Atheists and served as its president until 1986, after which her son Jon Garth
Murray succeeded her.
She created the first issues of American Atheist Magazine and
identified as a "militant feminist".
Agnostic:
a person who believes that nothing is known or
can be known of the existence or nature of God or of anything beyond material
phenomena;
a person who claims neither faith nor disbelief
in God.
And now a mathematical possibility to examine today
[4] These are the generations of the heavens and of
the earth when
they were created, in the day that Yehovah
God made the earth and the heavens,
[5] And every plant of the field before it was in the
earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for Yehovah God had not caused it to
rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground.
To follow up from
last week’s talk pertaining to the end times, we have some other scriptures to
examine with some thoughts we put together over the years.
I used the word approximate below because there are no actual
dates in TaNakh and no actual dates in the Gospels
and letters.
Some of today’s
histories may say when a certain Roman ruler reigned in the Gospels and
letters. However, there are no actual dates we can use…
We are aware of the
Gregorian calendar we use today, that Roman rulers changed days of months at
will. Who knows what else they changed. (They made up names of the months,
added or deleted months) etc…
After 21, 22 years
of this congregation, there are still many scriptures we don’t completely
understand, in the fullest sense, pertaining to the end time.
Here is a small
list:
The
6th day creation (existence of mankind)
The
7th day a Sabbath (it is finished)
The
fall feasts (7th month - future possible end)
The
Days of Noah (the coming of the son of man)
Book
of Daniel (chapters 8, 19, 12 and others)
Books
of (Matthew 24, Mark 13, Luke 21, 1 Thes.5, 2 Thes.2, Rev. 11, 13, others also)
Book
of Revelation (the beast, false prophet, the mark etc…)
The
jubile (something to do with the end)
The
year of release (something to do with the end)
Please
notice during this talk:
The numeral 6
The days of
creation 6
The years of Noah’s
life 6
When Noah entered
into the ark
The 7th
day, Gen. 2, Sabbath - end of work
The seventh month: A memorial of
Trumpets, A day of atonement,
The
feast of tabernacles
The jubilee
120 times 50 = 6000
Year of release
Yeshua said:
As the days
of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
We shall start from
the beginning, Genesis
Here are some of my
thoughts in a nutshell:
Approximate Centuries of earth
Here we are in 2024
in the 21 century, which started in
the year 2000 / 20
centuries past
Approximately another
76 years, will bring us to 2100 – 22nd
century L
Centuries in a short summary:
We will look at the
Books - Genesis to Malachi – approx. 4000 years or 40
Centuries
Yeshua was in the 1st century
Yeshua to the present, 2024 is approx. 2000 years or 20 Centuries
Simple
addition
Total approximate
years and centuries:
Approximately 6000 years or 60 centuries
at the present
This seems to match
our 6000 years of mankind, young earth
concept.
Scripturally speaking, here are some of the
things that will occur in someone’s future.
Some things below you know never happened yet.
The
Gospel will be preached in all
the world
Time
of trouble like never before
False
prophet – in end
Flatteries
Peace
and safety said
Covenant
for 7 years
A
falling away first
The
man of sin – the anti-Messish
All the world will worship him
One
world religion
One
world monetary system
Third
Temple built
The
abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet
Two
witnesses 3 ½ years
Anti-Messiah
3 ½ years with all power and signs and lying wonders, exalted to
god
The
beast and the image of the beast that comes alive
Jerusalem
compassed with armies
Great sound of a trumpet
The
Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven
Next, we will examine
some “feasts Yehovah” that
are not completed as of 2024.
We are concerned
with the fall feasts of God for the future:
Here is our
understanding
Lev.23:
The 7th
month of God
Trumpets - to be heard
announcing the return of the Lord
a Day of Atonement - better be atoned when the Lord returns
Feast of
tabernacles - tabernacle
with God for eternity
Below are some
backup scriptures:
“Come
into the Arc”
Yeshua said:
Matt.24
[37] But as
the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. [38]
For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking,
marrying and giving in marriage, until
the day that Noah entered into the ark,
[39] And knew not until the flood came, and took them all
away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Luke 17
[26] And as
it was in the days of
Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.
[27] They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they
were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and
the flood came, and destroyed them all.
Gen.7
[1] And
Yehovah said unto Noah,
Come you and all your
house into the ark; for
thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.
[6]
And Noah
was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
Gen.1 [31]
And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the
evening and the morning were the
sixth day.
The number 6 seems to
show up above a few times
The
7th day it is finished, rested
Rested:שָׁבַת
shabath
Meaning: 1) to cease, desist, rest
Usage: AV - cease 47, rest 11
Gen.2
[1]
Thus
the heavens and the earth were finished, and all
the host of them.
[2] And on the seventh day God
ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh
day from all his work which he had made.
[3]
And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had
rested from all his work which God created and made.
[4]
These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were
created in the day that Yehovah God made the earth and the heavens…
Back in Gen.6
[3] And Yehovah said, My spirit shall not
always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty
years.
120 years
By the way, people
in scripture did live longer after chapter 6 states
Here chapter 11 and
a short list of people that lived longer the 120 years:
Gen.11
[13] And Arphaxad lived after he begat Salah four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters.
[15] And Salah lived after he begat Eber four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters.
[17] And Eber lived after he begat Peleg
four hundred and thirty years, and begat sons and daughters.
[19] And Peleg lived after he begat Reu two hundred and nine years, and begat sons and daughters.
[21] And Reu lived after he begat Serug
two hundred and seven years, and begat sons and daughters.
[32] And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years: and Terah died in Haran.
Gen.6:3
[3] And Yehovah said, My spirit shall not
always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty
years.
Here is one possible concept:
The jubile may have
something to do with the end times
Lev.25 – 50 years
[8] And you shall
number seven Sabbaths of years unto you, seven times seven years; and the space aof
the seven Sabbaths of years shall be unto thee forty and nine years.
[9] Then shall you cause the
trumpet of the jubile to sound on the
tenth day of the seventh month, in the day
of atonement shall you make the trumpet sound throughout all your
land.
[10] And you shall hallow the
fiftieth year, and proclaim
liberty throughout all the land
unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubile unto you; and you
shall return every man unto his possession, and you shall return every man unto
his family.
Messiah - Proclaim, preach liberty
Isa.61
[1] The Spirit of the Lord Yehovah
is upon me;
because Yehovah
had anointed me to
preach good tidings unto the
meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison
to them that are bound;
[2] To proclaim the acceptable year of Yehovah,
and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;
[3] To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty
for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of
heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of Yehovah, that he might be glorified.
[4] And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise
up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the
desolations of many generations.
Isa.62 [11] Behold, Yehovah had proclaimed unto
the end of the world, Say you to the daughter of Zion, Behold, your salvation comes; behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him.
The year
of release may have something to do with the end times
Deut.15 [9] Beware that there be not a thought in
thy wicked heart, saying, The
seventh year, the year of release, is
at hand…
Deut.31 [10] And Moses commanded them, saying, At the end of every seven
years, in the solemnity of the year of release, in the
feast of tabernacles – 50
Was Yeshua
in his 40s here, seems like it?
John.8 [57] Then said the Jews unto Yeshua, you are not yet 50 years old, and have you seen Abraham?
In closing for today,
Our God is eternally wonderful
As far as part2:
Remember, we are only explaining some of our
thoughts and concepts of certain scriptures.
I am not saying this is the absolute true, just a
concept we thought about for a while now.
You will just have to wait and see before 76 years expires and the 22nd
century shows up - approximately 2100 years.
I will not be here
for the 76 years, for I only may have 15 or 20+ years to live yet… Lord Yeshua willing…
If you have any
other understanding of these scriptures, please let us know. Let us reason
together.
Oh
well, we put forward and move on J
Yeshua said: Matt 28: [19] Go you therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing
them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
[20] Teaching them to observe all things
whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
Shabbat Shalom
