I am told that the Christian holidays were based on the Jewish tradition of the calendar and our holidays... Easter coincidental with Passover, etc. (until Nicea.) So who has some anecdote or comment about their belief of when (in the course of the year) the world started-- when it all began...

Thanks for the reminder.

"Fiat Lux"

My motto, and that of my university.

Was just thinking of these Holy Days, a little while ago.

Daily Thought

First Day

More than Rosh Hashanah is about the One Above, it is about us below. He created the world. But we drive it to its destiny. That is why it is called “the beginning of Your works”—even though it is not the anniversary of the creation of the universe, but of the human being. It is the true beginning, as all of time begins on this day. Because on this day, more than any other, we are empowered to switch tracks, to transform our destiny and thereby the destiny of all of creation. Through us, the bitter darkness that shrouded truth and goodness can become a flaming torch of light. All is defined by destiny. Even the past is redefined by the arrow of its future. The very existence of that time that held that past is re-created once it achieves its hidden destiny. A destiny that only you can reveal. That is all that matters: Now, the first day of all of time, future and past. Maamar Zeh Hayom 5742.

So this really is the first day of the rest of your life.

Based on the calendar He taught Israel (and the template is in Ezekiel 46), today is His 3rd Day, the 25th Day of His 6th month..

His 3rd Day- a work day..
The day commemorating Him gathering up the waters and letting the dry land appear. A day He called the land Earth and the water, Seas. A day that began the vegetation , plants yielding seed and trees bearing fruit.

But lots of the world calls it Woden’s Day..

What a blessing it is to give Him thanks and the glory for His Creative and Redemptive Work that is detailed on His Calendar.
Or one can give the moon,gods tiw,woden,Thor, goddess frigg, Saturn,the sun the honor..

Kind of like taking what the angel cries in Revelation to heart when the angel calls us to worship Him who made Heaven and earth , the sea and fountains of water(Revelation 14:7

I only know this because I have been observing His plain calendar from Scripture and His Sky instead of the Roman counterfeit calendar named after a Pope for the last three years..

And what is truly amazing is to see Judaism use the same counterfeit calendar that the world uses- even willing to move Feasts and dates when they conflict with their ‘traditions’..

To see how they can miss His Appointed times that He taught them is an amazing blessinh.(which Judaism does)
What is really amazing is how those dates all fit into the Word Made Flesh life events with study.

That is why a verse like Revelation 12:1 can mean nothing to Judaism but can unlock a key for a believer in the King of Kings , to a wealth of knowledge and understanding that can mean the difference between worshipping in spirit and truth or worshipping in spirit and error.

And being sealed or marked, spiritually, this very day...

What an amazing Calendar He gives us. One that points to His Creative AND Redemptive Work.
It is in Scripture (template is plainly found in Ezekiel) and Judaism doesn’t follow it..

But the Bride can..if she has eyes to see and ears to hear.. Then maybe the Bride can teach the world just how counterfeit the world is..
In light of His unchanging Truth..

My journey began in Ezekiel 46 and a simple question most wouldn’t think to ask..
What a blessing to ask,seek and knock!

I pray more do. The Word really became flesh. And the Bride should know it all. More so than those blinded to the Messiah of Israel
..

If more called today His 3rd day instead of Woden’s day, babylon and the world system would have a hard time standing .
