Lev 23:4 These are the feasts of the LORD, even holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their seasons. Lev 23:5 In the fourteenth day of the first month at even is the LORD'S passover. Num 28:16 And in the fourteenth day of the first month is the passover of the LORD. Deu 16:1 Observe the month of Abib, and keep the passover unto the LORD thy God: for in the month of Abib the LORD thy God brought thee forth out of Egypt by night. Keeping the Passover is probably the most important feast day of the year for it signifies the Lords salvation. The extraction of the nation of Israel from the bondage of the Egyptians is the physical sense of the extraction of Gods children through Christ from the bondage of this world which is death. Passover or the High Sabbath is to be recognized in the first month of the new year {Biblical} which is the month of Abib. This takes place at the spring equinox which is an exact time occurring every year never varying for it is calculated by the solar solstice and not the lunar rotations of the moon by which man calculates time. Days are marked from sundown to sundown in biblical time [Gen chapter 1} so it is easy to calculate when Passover will be in each passing year. Know the time of the spring equinox which starts the beginning of the biblical year and start counting 14 days there after from sun down to sun down. At sun down on the 14th day starts the beginning of the 15th day which begins Passover. This is the proper time to take communion with the Lord in keeping with His instructions in: Matt 26:26-28. No Christian should be without this knowledge and willingness to fulfill for it is the commandment of our heavenly Father that this day be observed throughout the generations. 1Co 5:7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: 1Co 5:8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

There is no more to be said than what is already posted for you cannot reach the unreachable. Ill just leave everyone with this thought and I pray it strikes home: BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD

Do you honestly think that it is man that controls anything pertaining to world affairs? The sky is not falling and the world isn't going to end today {for most people anyway}, but it is for sure that if all you consider through this is your personal comfort, then many will probably die who had not to die if all would hunker down and do that which is right. I would hate to have their blood on my hands simply because I wanted my personal rights. As it is written: There is a time and place for everything. Now is not the time or place. Godbless JTF

There is "One" Holy Spirit and He the Spirit of God. There is one truth and that is the word of God. There is one Son and He is Emmanuel {God with us}. Heb 9:14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? The law of God is in your heart if you are His' How it is implemented by an individual or to what degree is between them and their heavenly Father. This is not for me or you to judge, for we are not worthy to judge. Have we seen the depths of a persons heart or held their soul in our hand? Is it you or I who have determined the measure of a persons faith? We who cannot even contain our own faith, but it is held in tact by the Holy Spirit. Now you wish to measure someone by their walk of life or where they live or was born. Have you learned nothing by reading the Gospels? Christ can touch whom He will touch and heal whom He will heal and raise whom He will raise from the dust of the earth, for whom in the scriptures did He not heal who had faith and use when they were willing. Mary Magdalene was processed with 7 spirits, but after the Lord touched her and cast out the spirits, she was healed and served Him mightily. Would you have chosen David to stand against Goliath or Paul to write the epistles? Leave the judging of a persons worth unto the Lord who only is worthy. All I said is that If you have God, then you have His law, for He and His law, He and His word, and He and His Spirit are all one and shed upon all who believe through the Lord Jesus Christ. JTF

Law or Life? Why not both. God is both life and law. God is righteousness and His law is righteous and His children have this law written in their hearts through the Lord Jesus Christ. Follow His law and you will do well. JTF

There is no end to being stupid I guess. Doesnt matter how hard people try to do that which is right, there is always those who are critics to everything. The only person you are thinking of here is yourself, for it you were thinking beyond your selfishness, you would not have written this thread. God have mercy JTF

It is no problem protecting my home from those you call "Minions". First I anoint my home and command everything negative and evil out of it in the name of Jesus as instructed in scripture and teach my family the truth of Gods word chapter by chapter, verse by verse as instructed in scripture. Second I listen to those who are in knowledgeable positions concerning certain aspects of life like dealing with this coronavirus and do what they say. Thirdly I protect my family from themselves by diverting them from making foolish decisions such as those people who believe that they are immune to anything and can do just as they please. Gods children in Christ are not to be foolish , but wise. Be wise and live. Is that so hard?? Godbless JTF

There are so many today in various places throughout the world who are in harms way just for believing, and so many brethren who are killed on a daily basis because of their faith who have never experienced the working of God in their life as you have described and certainly those who forfeited their lives for their faith in a God whom they never got to see or experience His goodness as you experience it, What do you say of them?? How easily it is to give phrase when your life isn't in jeopardy for loving and worshiping the true living God. I speak not against your post, but ask you all to give thought as to why you believe and to what measure. God Bless JTF

Thanks for the reply for I can tell that it was time consuming, however, concerning that which you have stated [If I perceived it correctly], there are two observations I would like to offer: {1} Rom 11:8 (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear;) unto this day. {2} Rom 11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. Rom 11:26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: When the expression of Jacob is used by the Holy Spirit, it is referencing the whole house of Israel, all 12 tribes, "None Left Out" so I cant find doctrine that will align with what you are stating here: "The Jews having made themselves a dead and putrefied carcase, odious to God's holiness and obnoxious to his justice" The Jew's or Judah are the Regal seed of Israel as stated in Gen 49:10 and the seed line through which Christ came [Holy unto God}. Gen 49:10 The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be. Gen 49:10 pretty well states it clearly. God has not cast His people away especially when it was His own act that caused many of them to stumble in blindness. The 11th chapter of Romans is a good study on this. Thank you JTF

"After more than thirty years of observing the religious scene I have been forced to conclude that saintliness and church leadership are not often synonymous. I have on many occasions preached to grateful Christians who had gone so much farther than I had into the sweet mysteries of God that I actually felt unworthy to tie their shoe laces." The pupil teaching the teacher. ??? I agree with BeauJangles. What JTF

God always hears the prayers of the righteous Lady Kay. I too use to travel the US and perform work at construction sites so I can understand your concern, but be joyous and at ease for as it is written: Luk 10:18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. Luk 10:19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. Luk 10:20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven. Godbless JTF

26 through 37. Can you explain what these scriptures are revealing as taught by the Lord pertaining to His second coming? He did not speak clearly when replying unto the Pharisees, for as it is written: Luk 8:10 And he said, Unto you [disciples] it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others [Pharisees] in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand Thanks JTF

Sorry Yishai, but without the biblical documentation to establish what you have proclaimed here to be true, this post is fruitless. It is not Judah that is at the forefront of the end time prophecies, but the Church. Our Lord taught extensively about this in Mat 24, Mark 13, and Luk 21. Israel and Jerusalem are the battle grounds [spiritually speaking], but it is the time for the fulfilling of Gods promise in the beginning: Gen 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. Satan [the anti Christ] shall take away the daily oblation [sacrifice/prayer] as it is written by turning the people unto his own deceiving doctrines with signs and wonders which causes them to worship him instead of the true Christ yet to come [and this might involve physical sacrifice], but this is not a time for the testing of the world [for the world already denies God], but it is a time for the testing of the body of Christ, the true Church and the roll that God has given them in this end time to fulfill as it is written: Mat 24:19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! The days being referred to here are the days of the anti Christ and this statement is a warning form the true Lord of lords and King of kings unto His body [church]. The false one [anti/instead of christ] comes first as the writings of the sixth seal, sixth trump, and the sixth vail express, and when the true Christ comes [at the last trump (7)] and finds His virgin bride already with child [in bed with or nursing along the doctrines of anti Christ], woe unto them for they have been deceived and are nolonger fit for His kingdom: Mat 25:1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. Mat 25:2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. Mat 25:3 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: Mat 25:4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. Mat 25:5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. Mat 25:6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. Mat 25:7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. Mat 25:8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. Mat 25:9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. Mat 25:10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. Mat 25:11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. Mat 25:12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. Mat 25:13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh. You stated: "Few Messianic Jewish Congregations or Gentile Congregations have learned how to surrender to the Holy Spirit. But God is about to do something new. He needs a new vessel to contain the new Glory outpouring. I believe God will call this next move the One New Man." There is nothing new under the sun and there are no new vessels as you say, for the glory/Spirit of God has already been poured out in His children through Christ who are/and have already been prepared for the battle to come. Question is: Are you ready. Read and study 1 Cor 15 and may God grant you understanding. Godbless JTF

Yall are so confused. The first beast that shall rise from the sea [nations/peoples] is a movement that shall take root and grow all over the earth promoting the collation of all people under one movement of belief. It is the acts of men that bring this movement about and that is why it is not sustainable and will fail [receive the deadly blow]. The second beast that shall rise is heavenly/angelic who has the power [knowledge/ability] to correct the problems with the first movement [heal the deadly wound] thereby making himself desirable unto all the people of the world [aside from those who have the seal of God in their foreheads] to lead them [rule over them]. This angel is none other than Lucifer/Satan who is cast to the earth by Michael and knows he only has a short season. He is the desolator who brings about the desolation as spoken by Daniel the prophet and the apostle Paul in 11Thes 1 and 2. and Christ Himself. It is he that deceives the people of the earth into appointing him king of the earth and it is he that shall try to set upon the throne of David in Jerusalem as the Christ which brings about the return of the true King, Jesus Christ for only He can sit upon the throne of David [mercy seat] which is the eternal throne of God. This angel is the anti Christ/instead of Christ and when he appears, Gods children better be ready and watching, for to be otherwise is to be taken captive by his false doctrines, false images and could end you up in judgment and damnation. It truly is simple if you rightly divide it chapter by chapter and verse by verse as instructed by the Holy Spirit. Please don't be angry, this needed to be said Godbless JTF

I In times past, God sent His prophets to speak unto His people in His behalf [their request,Exo 20:19], and to correct them for they had removed themselves from His grace by denying His word in favor of their own. Gods word is truth and guidance in righteousness and for the people to utilize it in their daily affairs' kept them in alliance with the Holy Father. Time after time God had to send His prophets to speak with the people pertaining to their digressions, and time after time He had to take measures in dealing with their stubbiness to promote them into repentance. The scriptures and history are filled with example after example of the hardships Gods people [and the ethnic nations] had to endure because they preferred to follow their own intellectual desires and beliefs instead of Gods given word. For a time they would remember and repent, but eventually they would drift again into their own will and fallibility bringing down the swift judgment of Gods justice against them and even possible destruction for their continued rebellion. No nation, no people are above the law [Gods law], and no nation can exist in righteousness aside from Gods law as history has recorded even though many nations today still try to promote their own sense of righteousness and judgment as they see it. Many people live in bondage because of the will of man to rule over them and many abide in harms way because of the evil of men which resides over them and tears down their ability to withstand. Only through the will of men [people] to utilize Gods righteousness and truth within their governing structure are they able to withstand the wails of those who would destroy them and bring them into bondage. Nowhere today in this modern age is their a nation that can resist those who would break its will, dismantle its governing body, and take away its lawful structure of righteousness aside from the United States of America. Even the United Kingdom has not her glory, but merely a shadow of the grace of which the Holy Father has bestowed upon His champion of the end times. In the depths of the scriptures you will find her. Ever hidden yet, ever present awaiting her moment in the fullness of the glory of which God has given her to shine as a pillar of hope unto a world filled with hopelessness and despair. Her beautify, her wealth, her might, unparalleled by any other nation in time or history, for as it is written: Psa 18:2 The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. Who else among the nations of the world has designed and structured their governing bodies and their structure of laws to aligned with the laws and provisions of God which affords its citizens the securities, freedoms and liberties that no other peoples of the earth in time or history has been able to establish. In her schools, courthouses, institutes of law and government and even upon her currency are the words boldly displayed: In God We Trust From the bully pit of Washington DC unto the four corners of the world has her might and judgment of righteousness pertaining to all peoples been realized by those who would appose her and try to prevent her stand for democercy. From the moment that God called her forth and established her in His grace has the world looked upon her with envy. Fifty was her number [Jubilee] and her glory is seen from sea to shinning sea, for she belongeth unto the LORD and mighty is His hand raised in her defence. None shall stay her and none shall overcome her, for her beacon ever shines unto all who would come unto her light. Now I say brethren. Should not we learn and understand first the will and structure for this end time as our heavenly Fathers has determined, and not criticize the very frame work that He has established to orchestrate it? Look closely at those who portray the image of goodliness and where they stand and if thou need to judge, judge righteously as our heavenly Father is righteous. 2Pe 2:9 The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished: 2Pe 2:10 But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities. 2Pe 2:11 Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord.
