Today we use the Gregorian calendar from Pope Gregory; from
the 1500’s,
Pope Gregory just had a New Year, we say it is 2015
January 3, 2015
January -- Janus's month
Middle English Januarie
Latin Januarius "of Janus"
Latin Janu(s) "Janus" + -arius "ary
(pertaining to)"
Latin Januarius mensis "month of Janus"
Janus is the Roman god of gates and doorways, depicted with
two faces looking in opposite directions. His festival month is January.
Januarius had 29
days, until Julius when it became 31 days long.
-----------------
Yehovah has His own calendar
God’s New Year is in Spring, when all is “new”
again
Exod.12 Just before Passover,
[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.
Exod.13 [4] This day came ye out in the month ha aviv. (Abib)
-----------------
We are now in 10th month of God called Tevet, 11th day
טֵבֵת
Esth.2 [16] So Esther was taken unto king Ahasuerus into his house royal in the tenth month, which is the month Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign.

Today’s topic:
Behavior, Personality and
Attributes of a true believer
Emulate = to try to equal or excel; imitate with effort to equal or surpass
Blessed are the peacemakers
Behavior
1Sam. 18 [14] And David behaved himself wisely in all his ways; and Yehovah was with him.
1Chr.19 [13] Be of good courage,
and let us behave ourselves valiantly for our
people, and for the cities of our God: and let Yehovah do that which is good in
his sight.
Pss.101
[1]
I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, Yehovah, will I sing.
[2] I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way.
O when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect
heart.
[3] I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that
turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.
[4] A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.
--------------------
Matt. 5 [9] Blessed are the
peacemakers:
for they shall be called the children of God.
Charity = Messiah and His Personality and Attributes
1Cor.13
[1] Though
I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have
not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
[2] And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and
all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains,
and have not charity, I am nothing.
[3] And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my
body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
[4] Messiah - Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
[5] Messiah - Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
[6] Messiah - Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
[7] Messiah - Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
[8] Messiah - Charity never faileth:
but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
[9] For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
[10] But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
[11] When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
[12] For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
[13] And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three;
but
The greatest of these is charity - Messiah

Commandments 6 to 10
How to treat people of God, your neighbors
Exod. 20
[12] Honour thy father and thy
mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which Yehovah thy God giveth
thee.
[13] Thou shalt not kill.
[14] Thou shalt not commit adultery.
[15] Thou shalt not steal.
[16] Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
[17]
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet
thy neighbour's wife, nor his
manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is
thy neighbour's.
Lev. 19 [17] Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart:
thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him.
[18] Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself: I am Yehovah.
--------------------------
Joy shall be “in heaven” over one sinner that repents
Heaven is mentioned 853 times in many different ways in scripture
853 = 16 = 7
7, a good number J
Luke 15
[1] Then
drew near unto him all the publicans and sinners for to hear him.
[2] And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them.
[3] And he spake this parable unto them, saying,
[4] What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them,
doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which
is lost, until he find it?
[5] And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his
shoulders, rejoicing.
[6] And when he cometh
home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying
unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my
sheep which was lost.
[7] I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.
[8] Either what woman having ten pieces of
silver, if she lose one piece, doth not light a candle, and sweep the house,
and seek diligently till she find it?
[9] And when she hath found it, she calleth her friends and
her neighbours together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have found the piece which
I had lost.
[10] Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.
[11] And he
said, A certain man had two sons:
[12] And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the
portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living.
[13] And not
many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey
into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.
[14] And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that
land; and he began to be in want.
[15] And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he
sent him into his fields to feed swine.
[16] And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the
swine did eat: and no man gave unto him.
[17] And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my
father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger!
[18] I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee,
[19] And am no more worthy to be called
thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.
[20]
And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his
father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed
him.
[21] And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven,
and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son.
[22] But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and
put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet:
[23] And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and
be merry:
[24] For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is
found. And they began to be merry.
[25] Now his
elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard
musick and dancing.
[26] And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things
meant.
[27] And he said unto him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath
killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound.
[28] And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father
out, and intreated him.
[29] And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I
serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou
never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:
[30] But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy
living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.
[31] And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever
with me, and all that I have is thine.
[32] It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy
brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.

Cease to do evil
Prov.23 [21]
For
the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty: and drowsiness
shall clothe a man with rags.
Prov.26 [9]
As
a thorn goeth
up into the hand of a drunkard, so is a
parable in the mouth of fools.
1Cor.6 [9] Know ye 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.
Gal.5 [13] For,
brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an
occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.
[14] For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
[15] But if ye bite and devour one another, take
heed that ye be
not consumed one of another.
[16] This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the
lust of the flesh.
[17] For the flesh lusteth
against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary
the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
[18] But if ye be led of
the Spirit, ye are not under the law. (under arrest)
[19] Now the works of the flesh are
manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
[20] Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife,
seditions, heresies,
[21] Envyings,
murders, drunkenness, revellings,
and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I
have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not
inherit the kingdom of God.
[22] But the fruit of the Spirit is love,
joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
[23] Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
[24] And they that are Messiah’s have crucified the flesh with the
affections and lusts.
[25] If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
[26] Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another,
envying one another.
Exod. 23:[2] Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest judgment:
Isa.1 [16] Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;
[17] Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.
[18] Come now, and
let us reason together, saith Yehovah: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like
crimson, they shall be as wool.
[19] If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:
[20] But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the
mouth of Yehovah hath spoken it.
------------------------
Fret = to feel or express worry, annoyance, discontent, or the like
Fret not thyself in any wise to do evil
Pss.37
[1] Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.
[2] For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
[3] Trust in Yehovah, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
[4] Delight thyself also in Yehovah; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
[5] Commit thy way unto
Yehovah; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
[6] And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment
as the noonday.
[7] Rest in Yehovah, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
[8] Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.
[9] For evildoers shall be cut off:
but those that wait upon Yehovah, they shall inherit the earth.
[10] For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt
diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.
[11] But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
[12] The wicked plotteth against the
just, and gnasheth upon him with
his teeth.
[13] Yehovah shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming.
[14] The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down
the poor and needy, and to slay such as be of upright conversation.
[15] Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be
broken.
[16] A little that a righteous man hath is better than
the riches of many wicked.
[17] For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but Yehovah upholdeth the righteous.
[18] Yehovah knoweth the days of the upright: and
their inheritance shall be for ever.
[19] They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they
shall be satisfied.
[20] But the wicked shall perish, and
the enemies of Yehovah shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into
smoke shall they consume away.
[21] The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again:
but the righteous sheweth mercy, and
giveth.
[22] For such as be blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and they that be cursed of him shall be cut off.
[23] The steps of a good man are
ordered by Yehovah: and he delighteth in his way.
[24] Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down:
for Yehovah upholdeth him with his
hand.
[25] I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous
forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.
[26] He is ever merciful, and lendeth; and his
seed is blessed.
[27] Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore.
[28] For Yehovah loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his
saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the
wicked shall be cut off.
[29] The righteous shall inherit the
land, and dwell therein for ever.
[30] The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment.
[31] The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.
[32] The wicked watcheth the
righteous, and seeketh to slay him.
[33] Yehovah will not leave him in his hand, nor
condemn him when he is judged.
[34] Wait on Yehovah, and keep his way, and he
shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt
see it.
[35] I have seen the wicked in great power, and
spreading himself like a green bay tree.
[36] Yet he passed away, and, lo, he was not: yea, I sought him, but he could
not be found.
[37] Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for
the end of that man is peace.
[38] But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the wicked shall be cut off.
[39] But the salvation of the righteous is of Yehovah:
he is their strength in the time of trouble.
[40] And Yehovah shall help them and deliver them: he shall deliver them from
the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.
Prov. 24[19] Fret not thyself because of evil men, neither be thou envious at the wicked;[20] For there shall be no reward to the evil man; the candle of the wicked shall be put out.
-------------------------------
Pss. 97 [10] Ye that love Yehovah, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.
Prov. 6 [16] These six things doth Yehovah hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:
[17] A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent
blood,
[18] An heart that deviseth wicked
imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
[19] A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.
--------------------
1 Pet. 3 [9] Not rendering evil for evil, or railing
for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called,
that ye should inherit a blessing.
2 Pet.2 [11] Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before Yehovah.
Jude.1 [9] Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, Yehovah rebuke thee.
--------------------
Pss.31 [6] I have hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in Yehovah.
Jonah 2 [8] They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.
--------------------
Scripture tells us we are supposed to let our light shine before men, that they may see our good works, and glorify our father which is in heaven.
Matt.5 [13] Ye are the salt of the
earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be
salted? it is thenceforth good for
nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
[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 that 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.

Rom.12 [21] Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good
