Today we use the Gregorian calendar (From Pope Gregory, from the 1500's)

 

Today is Jan. 182025

January -- Janus's month

Middle English Januarie
Latin Januarius "of Janus"
Janus is the Roman god of gates and doorways, depicted with two faces looking in opposite directions.

Januarius had 29 days, until Julius when it became 31 days long.

 

Yehovah has His own calendar:

We are now in the 10th month, Teveth, day 17

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

The waiting

 for the coming of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah

The future return of Yeshua the Messiah that was mentioned by Yeshua, Matthew, Luke, Paul, James, John and Peter in scripture:

A few verses with this thought in it:

Don’t say, my lord delays his coming L

Matt.24 [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.

Luke 12 [45] But and if that servant say in his heart, My lord delays his coming; and shall begin to beat the menservants and maidens, and to eat and drink, and to be drunken. [46] The lord of that servant will come in a day when he looketh not for him, and at an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him in sunder, and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers.

 

1Cor.15 [21] For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.[22] For as in Adam all die, even so in Messiah shall all be made alive.

[23] But every man in his own order: Messiah the first fruits; afterward they that are Messiah's at his coming.

 

1Thes.2 [19] For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing?

Are not even you in the presence of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah at his coming?

 

2 Thes.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.

 

1 Thes.3 [11] Now God himself and our Father, and our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, 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 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 go before /prevent them which are asleep / dead.

[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 John 2 [28] And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.

[29] If you know that he is righteous, you know that every one that does righteousness is born of him.

 

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.

 

Peter knew the world, in the beginning being overflowed with water, perished in Genesis, let’s read:

2 Pet.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:

Don’t say:

[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 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.

From:

Isa.65 [17] For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.

Isa.66 [22] For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, said Yehovah, so shall your seed and your name remain.

 

Back to 2 Pet.3

[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 had 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 stedfastness.
[18] But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Yeshua the Messiah.To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.

 

Jas. 5 [7] Be patient therefore, brothers (and sisters) unto the coming of the Lord.

Behold, the husbandman waits for the precious fruit of the earth, and had  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.

Remember:

***The longsuffering of our Lord, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

 

The world’s time, it seems:

Approx. first 4000 years was from the beginning until Yeshua rose from the dead, then from Yeshua to the end of time, approx 2000 years left?

6000 years? - We are in 2025? What is the real date?

 

We should see, if we are still here, these things before the end:

The 3rd temple

One world leader as god, image of the beast comes alive

The abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet

The false prophets, false Messiahs - one religion – fake miracles abound

This leader will have power on the monetary system

The two witnesses

The worst tribulations

The gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world

 

***Remember it is 2025 now, which is our date, so where are we in time?

We have many things that have to happen yet.

 

Backup info:

Matt.24

[1] And Yeshua went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew 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 in the holy place, (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 any thing 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 Messiahs, 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 shines even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

[37] But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

[39] And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be

 

Some verses with the day of Yehovah.

That day never sounded like a good day, no matter when it was in the past or will be in the future:

Isa.2 [12] For the day of Yehovah of hosts shall be upon every one that is proud and lofty, and upon every one that is lifted up; and he shall be brought low:

Isa.13 [6] Howl you; for the day of Yehovah is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty.

[9] Behold, the day of Yehovah cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate:

and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.

[10] For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.

[11] And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.

Isa.34 [8] For it is the day of the Yehovah 's vengeance, and the year of recompenses for the controversy of Zion.

Jer.46 [10] For this is the day of the Lord Yehovah of hosts, a day of vengeance, that he may avenge him of his adversaries: and the sword shall devour, and it shall be satiate and made drunk with their blood: for the Lord Yehovah of hosts had a sacrifice in the north country by the river Euphrates.

Lam.2 [22] You have called as in a solemn day my terrors round about, so that in the day of Yehovah’s anger none escaped nor remained: those that I have swaddled and brought up had mine enemy consumed.

Ezek.13 [5] You have not gone up into the gaps, neither made up the hedge for the house of Israel to stand in the battle in the day of Yehovah.

Ezek.30 [3] For the day is near, even the day of Yehovah is near, a cloudy day; it shall be the time of the heathen.

Joel.1 [15] Alas for the day! for the day of Yehovah is at hand, and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come.

Joel.2 [1] Blow you the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of Yehovah comes, for it is nigh at hand; [2] A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations.

[11] And Yehovah shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that executes his word: for the day of Yehovah is great and very terrible; and who can abide it?

Joel.3 [14] Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of Yehovah is near in the valley of decision.

Amos.5 [18] Woe unto you that desire the day of Yehovah!

to what end is it for you? the day of Yehovah is darkness, and not light.

[19] As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.[20] Shall not the day of Yehovah be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?

Obad.1 [15] For the day of Yehovah is near upon all the heathen: as thou hast done, it shall be done unto you: your reward shall return upon your own head.

Zeph.1 [7] Hold your peace at the presence of the Lord Yehovah: for the day of Yehovah is at hand: for Yehovah had prepared a sacrifice, he had bid his guests. [8] And it shall come to pass in the day of Yehovah’s sacrifice, that I will punish the princes, and the king's children, and all such as are clothed with strange apparel.

[14] The great day of Yehovah is near, it is near, and hasts greatly, even the voice of the day of Yehovah: the mighty man shall cry there bitterly.

[18] Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them in the day of Yehovah’s wrath; but the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of his jealousy: for he shall make even a speedy riddance of all them that dwell in the land.

Zeph.2 [2] Before the decree bring forth, before the day pass as the chaff, before the fierce anger of Yehovah come upon you, before the day of the Yehovah's anger come upon you.

[3] Seek Yehovah, all you meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be you shall be hid in the day of Yehovah’s anger.

Zech.14 [1] Behold, the day of Yehovah comes, and your spoil shall be divided in the midst of you.

1Cor.5 [5] To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Yeshua.

2Cor.1 [14] As also you have acknowledged us in part, that we are your rejoicing, even as you also are ours in the day of the Lord Yeshua.

1Thes.5 [2] For yourselves know perfectly that the day of Yeshua so cometh as a thief in the night.

2 Pet.3 [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.

 

In closing for now:

Don’t say, Where is the promise of his coming? Or my Lord delays his coming

Like I said, it is 2025 now, which is our date, so where are we in time?

We have many things that have to happen yet

Remember: Paul said - Eph.6 [12] For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

As James said:

Be you also patient; establish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draws nigh.

Also remember, Our Lord is longsuffering, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

 

Shabbat Shalom
