Lies that the church teaches
1)
Jesus was born on December 25th. This is an outright lie. The first century church did not celebrate
Christmas or Easter but they did keep the Sabbaths.
Courses: When David was not permitted to build the
temple, he proceeded, among the last acts of his life, with the assistance of
Zadok and Ahimelech, to organize the priestly and musical services to be
conducted in the house of God.
(1.) He divided the priests into
twenty-four courses (1 Chr. 24:1-19), sixteen being of the house of Eleazar and
eight of that of Ithamar. Each course was under a head or chief, and ministered
for a week, the order being determined by lot. Each course was named after a
prominent member of the family, was subject to its president. Zacharias, John
the Baptist's father, belonged to the eighth division, that of Abia (Lk 1:5)
(2.) The rest of the 38,000 Levites (23:4)
were divided also into twenty-four courses, each to render some allotted
service in public worship: 4,000 in twenty-four courses were set apart as
singers and musicians under separate leaders (25); 4,000 as porters or keepers
of the doors and gates of the sanctuary (26:1-19); and 6,000 as officers and
judges to see to the administration of the law in all civil and ecclesiastical
matters (20-32). This arrangement was re-established by Hezekiah (2 Chr. 31:2);
and afterwards the four sacerdotal courses which are said to have returned from
the Captivity were re-divided into the original number of twenty-four by Ezra
(6:18).
In 1962 while excavating a synagogue at
Caesarea archaeologists discovered fragments of a marble inscription that
originally named the 24 priestly courses and the city where each moved after
the destruction of the temple in 70 ACE. Nazareth is listed as the city of the
18th course, the town's earliest mention outside the Fulfilled Covenant.

Now about the Sabbaths and how they are tied to Yeshua/Jesus. Matthew, Mark, Luke says the Son of Man is L-rd even of the Sabbath. That means to me that everything occurring with Yeshua will occur on a Sabbath, 4th day, Rosh Chodesh (first sliver of the new moon), full moon, or the 7th day of Feast of Tabernacles.
Yeshua
was conceived in 4 BC at Chanukkah (Festival of Lights and Feast of Dedication)
on a Sabbath either on Dec. 15th or the 22nd. Born in the Fall on either Yom
Teruah (Day of Trumpet) or on the first Annual Sabbath of Feast of Tabernacles
in 3 BCE. Messianics teach Feast of Tabernacles. He was circumcised on the 8th
day (A new beginning) on the Second Annual Sabbath. According to Stellarium
(free Astronomy program) and Torahcalendar.com, He was born on Yom Kippur in 3
BC (Stellarium -4). He began His ministry in 27 CE and baptized either in
January (Michael Rood Chronological Gospels) or Day of Atonement (Biblical
Astronomy article). Entered Jerusalem on a donkey in 29 CE (Shemitah year) on
Abib 10 (Saturday), Month 1. Died on Passover (not a Sabbath) on Wednesday (4th
day and 4th candle called the Christ candle or servant candle of the Menorah (7
candles)) (each candle represents a day and 1000 years). Buried on Thursday
(Wednesday night by the time the first three stars came out which starts a new
day). Possibly the men came out of the tomb when the stars had appeared and
closed the tomb after the stars came out. This Day was the Feast of Unleavened
Bread Annual Sabbath. Rose 72 hours later at the beginning of the Feast of First
Fruits. Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot) is the Messianic Kingdom at the Second
Coming in 2018.
Christmas
was not observed by any professing Christian prior to the third century, or
ever by those holding to early teachings.
Easter
was not observed by the apostolic church.
Sunday
was not observed by the apostolic and original post-apostolic Christians.
The Christian Liturgical Year is not meant to be a mirror image of the Old Covenant's Feasts; it is more a yearly catechism of the life of Christ, who was crucified on a Friday, not Wednesday.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the timeline just the same, Mr. Ashcroft.
ReplyDeleteJesus, too, is a Jew Who did not send us Jews, per se, to guide us, but the Holy Spirit.
It seems accurate enough that the birth of Christ is "0", plain and simple; reckoning the 'birth' of the Judgment, however, I have found it to have two dates, like the two olive trees and lamp stands of chapter 11 in the Book of Revelation.
