Today, we sadly use the Gregorian calendar from Pope Gregory; from
the 1500’s.
Today is September 9, 2023
September - the seventh month (today
in 2023 it is the 9th month)
Middle
English septembre
Latin September
Latin septem "seven"
+ -ber (adj.
suffix)
Latin september mensis "seventh
month"
September had 30 days, until Numa when
it had 29 days, until Julius when it became 30 days long.
We are now in the 6th month
of God called Elul אֱלוּל , day 23
Neh.6 [15] So the wall was finished in the twenty and fifth day of the month Elul,
in fifty and two days
Neh.7 [73] So the priests, and the Levites, and the
porters, and the singers, and some of the people, and the Nethinims, and all
Israel, dwelt in their cities; and when the seventh month came, the
children of Israel were in their cities.
All days start the evening before:
Memorial of Trumpets
New moon is Sunday, 17 of September

Today’s Topic:
The return of Yeshua in the future
Here are a few verses to ponder:
Paul to the Gentiles, nations
1 Thes.1 [9]
For they themselves show of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and
how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God; [10]
…to wait for the Fathers’s Son from
heaven, whom the Father raised from the dead, even Yeshua, which delivered us from the wrath to come.
Matt.16 [28]
Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of
death, until they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.
I know we read this chapter many times, however
it is talking about the return of Yeshua one day.
Matt.24
[1]
And Yeshua went out, and departed
from the temple:
and his disciples came to him for to show him the buildings
of the temple.
[2]
And Yeshua said unto them, See you
not all these things?
verily I say unto you, There shall not be
left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
[3] And
as he sat upon the Mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him
privately, saying,
Tell us,
when shall these things be?
and what shall be the sign of
your coming,
and of the end of the world?
[4]
And Yeshua answered and said unto
them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
[5] For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Messiah; and shall
deceive many.
[6] And you shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that you be not
troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
[7] For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
[8] All
these are the beginning of sorrows.
[9]
Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and you
shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
[10]
And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one
another.
[11] And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
[12] And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
[13] But
he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
[14] And
this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world
for a witness unto all nations;
and then shall the end
come.
[15] When
you therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the
prophet, stand(ing) in the holy place, (the 3rd Temple)
(whoso reads, let him understand:)
[16]
Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:
[17] Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take anything out
of his house:
[18] Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his
clothes.
[19]
And woe unto them that are with child,
and to them that give suck in those days!
[20]
But pray you that your flight be not
in the winter, neither on the Sabbath day:
[21] For
then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the
world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
[22]
And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but
for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
[23] Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Messiah, or there;
believe it not.
[24] For there shall arise false Messiah, and false prophets, and shall
show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall
deceive the very elect.
[25]
Behold, I have told you before.
[26]
Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not
forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
[27] For
as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shins even unto the west; so shall
also the coming of the Son of man be.
[28]
For where ever the carcass is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
[29] Immediately
after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon
shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers
of the heavens shall be shaken:
[30]
And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven:
and then shall all the tribes of the earth
mourn,
and they shall see the Son of
man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
[31]
And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall
gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the
other.
[32] Now
learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and
puts forth leaves, you know that summer is nigh:[33] So likewise you,
when you shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
[34] Verily I say unto you, this generation shall
not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
[35]
Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
[36] But
of that day and hour knows no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father
only.
[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.
[40]
Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
[41]
Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other
left.
[42] Watch
therefore: for you know not what hour your Lord doth come.
[43]
But know this that if the good man of the house had known in what watch the
thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house
to be broken up.
[44]
Therefore be you also ready: for in such an hour as you think not
the Son of man cometh.
[45]
Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his
household, to give them meat in due season?[46]
Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.[47]
Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.
[48]
But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delays his coming;
[49] And shall begin to smite his fellow servants, and to eat and drink with
the drunken;
[50] The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looks not for him,
and in an hour that he is not aware of,
[51] And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the
hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Similar
accounts in Mark and Luke
Matt.26 [64] Yeshua said unto him, you have said: nevertheless I
say unto you, Hereafter shall
you see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power,
and coming in the clouds of heaven.
Mark 14 [61]
…. Again the high priest asked him, and said unto him, Are you the Messiah, the
Son of the Blessed? [62] And Yeshua said, I
am (the Messiah):
and you shall see the Son of man sitting on
the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
Paul
1 Cor.1
[4]
I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you
by Yeshua the Messiah;
[5] That in everything you are enriched by him, in all utterance, and in
all knowledge;
[6] Even as the testimony of Messiah was confirmed in you: [7]
So that you come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of
our Lord Yeshua the Messiah: [8]
Who shall also confirm you unto the end, that you may be blameless in the day
of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah.
1 Thes.3
[11]
Now God himself and our Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct our way unto
you.
[12] And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward
another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you: [13] To the
end he may establish your hearts unblameable in
holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our
Lord Yeshua the Messiah with all his
saints.
1 Thes.4
[15]
For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and
remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not
prevent, go before them which are asleep.
[16]
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of
the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Messiah shall rise
first:
[17] Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with
them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with
the Lord.
[18] Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
1
Thes.5 [23] … the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I
pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the
coming of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah.
2Thes.2
[1]
Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, and by our gathering together unto
him,
[2] That you be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by
spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Messiah is at
hand.
[3] Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come,
except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the
son of perdition;
[4] Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that
is worshipped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself
that he is God.
[5] Remember you not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these
things?
[6] And now you know what withholds that he might be revealed in his
time.
[7] For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now lets will let, until he be
taken out of the way.
[8] And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume
with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his
coming:
[9] Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power
and signs and lying wonders,
[10] And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish;
because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
[11] And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they
should believe a lie:
[12] That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had
pleasure in unrighteousness.
[13] But we are bound to give thanks always to God for you, brethren
beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to
salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:
[14] Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the
glory of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah.
[15] Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which you
have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.
[16] Now our Lord Yeshua the Messiah
himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given us
everlasting consolation and good hope through grace,
[17] Comfort your hearts, and establish you in every good word and work.
Jas.5
[7]
Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the
Lord. Behold, the husbandman waits for the precious fruit of the
earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter
rain.[8] Be you also patient; establish your hearts: for the
coming of the Lord draws nigh.
2Pet.3
[1]
This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which I stir up
your pure minds by way of remembrance:
[2] That you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the
holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and
Savior:
[3]
Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking
after their own lusts,
[4] And
saying, where is the promise of his coming?
for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they
were from the beginning of the creation.
[5]
For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens
were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and (then) in the water:
[6] Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water,
perished:
[7] But
the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are
kept in store, reserved unto fire against
the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
[8]
But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord
as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
[9] The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count
slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish,
but that all should come to repentance.
[10]
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night;
in the which the heavens shall pass away
with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth
also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
[11]
Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons
ought you to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
[12] Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God,
wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall
melt with fervent heat?
[13]
Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new
earth, wherein dwells righteousness.
[14] Wherefore, beloved, seeing that you look for such things, be
diligent that you may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.
[15]
And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our
beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written
unto you;[16] As also in all his epistles,
speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood,
which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other
scriptures, unto their own destruction.
[17] You therefore, beloved, seeing you know these things before, beware lest you also, being led away with the
error of the wicked, fall from your own steadfastness.
[18]
But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Yeshua the Messiah.
To
Him be glory both now and forever. Amen.
