שַׁבָּת שָׁלוֹם
Today, we sadly use the Gregorian calendar from Pope Gregory; from the 1500’s.
Today is June 17, 2023
June - Juno's month
Middle English
jun(e)
Old French juin
Old English junius
Latin Junius
"of Juno"
Latin Junius mensis
"month of Juno"
Junius had 30 days, until Numa when it had 29 days, until Julius when it became 30 days long.
Juno is the principle goddess of the Roman Pantheon. She is the goddess of marriage and the well-being of women. She is the wife and sister of Jupiter. She is identified with the Greek goddess Hera.
The God of Israel has His own Calendar: Sivan סִיוָן see-van day 28
Esther 8:9 Then were the king's scribes called at that time in the third month,
that is, the month Sivan...
New moon coming, 4th month of God, no
scriptural Bible month name for Tammuz
The 19th
in the evening
Here is
weeping for Tammuz – (pagan deity)
תַּמּוּז Tammuwz {tam-mooz'}
Meaning: Tammuz = a Sumerian deity
Ezek.8 [14] Then he brought me to the door of the gate of the Yehovah's
house which was toward the north; and, behold, there sat women weeping
for Tammuz – (pagan deity) תַּמּוּז -- a Sumerian deity of
food or vegetation, a Phoenician deity
Today’s topic
A world where evil
is good
and
good is
evil
Saul / Paul said in the past:
Eph.5 [11]
… have
no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them
Eph.4 [27]
neither give place
to the devil
Isa.5 [20]
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light,
and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
[21] Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and
prudent in their own sight!
[22] Woe unto them that
are mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to mingle strong drink:
[23] Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the
righteousness of the righteous from him!
Mal.2 [17]
You have wearied Yehovah
with your words.
Yet you say, Wherein
have we wearied him?
When ye
say, Every one that doeth evil
is good in the sight of Yehovah, and he
delights in them; or, Where is the God
of judgment?
1Cor.10
[20] …I say, that
the things which the Gentiles (the nations) sacrifice, they
sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that you
should have fellowship with devils.
Eph.5
[11] And have no
fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them
Having quoted these scriptures
above, here is
Life today in the 21 century
LGBTQ and WHAT IS LGBTQIA+?
LGBTQIA+ is an
abbreviation for lesbian, gay, bisexual,
transgender, queer or questioning, intersex, asexual, +Plus
Pride
Month: marking it a time to
celebrate LGBTQ communities, promote
queer joy and fight for rights that are under attack.
New York hosts the country’s
largest pride parades each year, and approximately 5
million people attended 2019 World Pride there, a global LGBTQ
festival that marked the 50th
anniversary of the 1969 Stonewall uprising.
The Stonewall Riots, also called the Stonewall
Uprising, began in the early hours of June 28,
1969 when New York City police raided the Stonewall Inn, a gay club located in
Greenwich Village in New York City. The raid sparked a riot among bar patrons
and neighborhood residents as police roughly hauled employees and patrons out
of the bar, leading to six days of protests and violent clashes with law
enforcement outside the bar on Christopher Street, in neighboring streets and
in nearby Christopher Park.
The Stonewall Riots served as a
catalyst for the gay rights movement in the United States and around
the world.
What does the Bible say about this?
Here are a few verses:
Lev.18 [22] You
shall not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.
Lev.20 [13] If
a man also lie with mankind, as he lie with a woman, both of them have
committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall
be upon them.
Bestiality refers to the actual act of engaging in sexual
intercourse with an animal, regardless of the
motivation and circumstances.
Zoophilia refers more to the bigger picture of people who have a desire to form
sexual relationships with animals.
[15] And if a man lies with a beast, he shall surely be put to death: and you shall slay the beast.
[16] And if a woman approach unto any beast, and
lie down thereto, you shall kill the woman, and the beast: they shall surely be
put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
Deut.22 [5]
The woman shall not wear that which pertains
unto a man, neither shall a man put
on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto Yehovah
thy God.
1 Cor.6 [9]
Know you not that the
unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God?
Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor
idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers
of themselves with mankind, [10] Nor
thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners,
shall inherit the kingdom of God.
Gen.13
[13]… the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before Yehovah
exceedingly.
Gen.9 [20] And Noah began to be an
husbandman, and he planted a vineyard:
[21] And he drank of the wine,
and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent.
[22] And Ham, the
father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of
his father, and told his two brethren without.
[23] And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon both their
shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and
their faces were backward, and they saw not their father's nakedness.
[24] And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son
had done unto him.
[25] And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto
his brethren.
[26] And he said, Blessed be Yehovah
God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
1 Tim.1 [9]
Knowing this, that the law (judgments)
is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the
ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and
murderers of mothers, for manslayers, [10] For whoremongers, for
them that defile themselves with mankind, for men stealers, for liars,
for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound
doctrine; [11] According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God,
which was committed to my trust.
Scripture, states:
First, we are all humans
Other Scriptures states:
Deut. 18
[9] When you are come into the
land which Yehovah thy God gives
you, you shall not learn to do after the abominations of those
nations.
[10] There shall not be found
among you any one
that makes his son or his daughter to pass through the fire,
(for idols)
or that
uses divination,
or an observer of times,
or an enchanter,
or a witch , [11]
or a charmer,
or a consulter with
familiar spirits,
or a wizard ,
or a necromancer.
[12] For all that do these
things are
an abomination unto Yehovah: and because of these abominations Yehovah
thy God doth drive them out from before you.
