The triggered have a hard time with the very mention of trump.

They probably cross out trump in the New Testament to make themselves feel better..
Maybe all the mentions of trumpets get reduced to ets, too.

Why is Easter not aligned with Passover?

Never understood that.....
......

Depends on who you ask..

Religion can answer that for us.
The Father can also answer that for us.

Also depends on if you really,really really want to know. Like it bothers you not to know the answer to that question..

Yup.

The internet is an amazing thing.

One can watch a live cam of Jerusalem and see that big Golden Domed Islamic Shrine/Mosque..

And wonder why does God allow that to stand..

I heard the billy club identifies as a twizzler when out clubbing these days, so..

Enemies foreign and domestic need dirt naps to obliterate the Deep State and Make America Great Again

What would be interesting is to redo the Exodus Journey today as a pilgrimage......
....

A New Covenant believer can do that every year from their home.

On the 14th Day of His 1st month,commemorate His death as the Passover Lamb.

Rest on the 15th Day of His 1st month, Unleavened Bread, when He rested from all His work.

Rejoice on His 16th Day of His 1st month, Resurrection Day and First Fruits of those who have fallen asleep..

Israel began their journey out on the 15th Day of His 1st month, and traveled into the wilderness, where on the 15th day of His 2nd month, they grumbled about their situation.

That evening of the 15th, He sent them quail to eat.

The next day, the 16th Day of His 6th month, He began feeding them manna from heaven, and it fell for 6 days. 16th,17th,18th,19th,20th,21st..

Then the next day was the Sabbath, the 22nd Day of His 2nd month, where no manna fell.

Israel continues their journey and on the 15th Day of His 3rd month, they arrive in the wilderness of Sinai.

They are called to prepare themselves till the 3rd day when they are assembled and hear the Covenant Law thundered down from the Mount.

Moses then is called up the Mount and is there for 40 days and nights.
After those days,Moses comes down the mount with the 2 Tables of the Covenant,the 10 Commandments.

If one takes special note of that exodus journey up to the 2 tablets of the Covenant, a pattern emerges.

After being delivered from bondage of slavery, Israel journeyed in the wilderness.

After 30 days, He fed them manna from heaven.
After 60 days, He told Him His Covenant Law.
After 100 days,He gave them His Covenant Law on 2 tablets of stone.

A question should be asked now.

Why can’t Judaism or Christianity teach this?

The answer really boils down to they don’t tell time like He does these days..

Sometimes they may be off by a month, sometimes a day or two.

Take note:
The 16th Day of His 1st month is the Day He rose asFirst Fruits.
The 16th Day of His 2nd month is the first day He sent them manna from heaven for 6 days.

It makes His 15th Days in His months weekly Sabbath’s, not just annual Sabbath’s

It makes His 22nd Days in His months His weekly Sabbath’s.

Not just in His 1st and 7th months, but every one of His months, the patterns do not change.

Israel experienced a 30,60,100 in the wilderness and it looks like Israel stops at 50 because they don’t tell time with His Son, like He does.

The New Covenant Church that stops at 50 appears to miss the 60 and 100 as well.

Maybe the answer to why Judaism and Christianity can’t teach this is found in a few places in the scriptures, but it wouldn’t be flattering.

Amazing what the Exodus journey can reveal to us.

Your suggestion is a great one, but it’s already supposed to be happening in every believer, even every person.

And it is,one way or another.

Either wayside,rocky,thorny, or 30,60,100..

The journey is not as physical for Spiritual Israel as it was for Physical Israel, but no less a wilderness.

Some say the Mark of the Beast is the image of Nero, on every coin, which had to be seen and held to conduct trade.
.......

Exodus 13:8
And you shall show your son in that day (15th Day, Unleavened Bread) saying This is done , because of that which the Lord did to me, when I came out of Egypt.
13:9 And it shall be a sign to you upon your hand and for a remembrance between your eyes , that the Law of the Lord may be in your mouth. For by a strong hand, the Lord brought you out of Egypt.

Today,the Beast has made Saturday more important than the 15th Day, Unleavened Bread, to Israel..

Thanks to the Son who is the Passover Lamb, who laid in the tomb on that 15th Day Sabbath, one no longer looks to Moses and bondage of Egypt, but to the bondage of sin, and to the Passover (14th Day) Lamb who died for our sins,the Unleavened Bread (15th Day) of Sincerity and Truth,and the First Fruits (16th Day) of those who have fallen asleep..

Isael has Saturday on their hands and on their minds/foreheads these days.

The Beast has set up its own 3 days as a direct alternative to what Paul called the first importance of the gospel and what the scriptures note that Israel was to have on their hands and on their foreheads as a sign/seal/mark.

Why can’t Friday,Saturday,Sunday be the Beast’s Mark, a counterfeit to the Father’s Passover, Unleavened Bread and first Fruits?

For those who follow Friday, Saturday,Sunday, could they buy Passover, Unleavened Bread and First Fruits as the same thing as Friday, Saturday and Sunday,or is the influence of the Beast system that overpowering?

Are those who wander after the Beast incapable of buying and selling anything other than what the Beast peddles?
Incapable of buying gold refined by fire?

Quote
VII. It will be noted that there are two beasts described in Revelation 13, one from “the land” and one from “the sea.” Hence there are two adversaries: Unbelieving Jews (The beast from the Land, for Land = “Promised Land”) and Rome (the beast from the Sea, for “Sea” is a common symbol of the Gentiles).
......

Beast of the Land in Revelation 11:11 desribed as having:
2 Horns like the Lamb, but spoke like the Dragon

Unbelieving Jews resembling the Lamb is quite a stretch...

Stolen elections have consequences

America began with 13 Colonies, as Christ began with Him and His 12.

America great to 50 states, as the New Covenant Church grew at 50 days..

America and Old Testament Israel is comparable but so is America and the New Covenant Church..

Does the New Covenant Church see itself as a lawless whore , sitting atop a Beast, holding a serpent where a shepherd and priesthood staff should be?

Probably not enough of it..

None of the first disciples and authors in the bible made a who’s who list in bible prophecy about 2,000 years later..
:)

About 2,000 demon possessed swine was so accurate for this age.

No worries!

From the same 1599 Geneva Bible, and a look into their view of Revelation 11:3

3 But [a]I will give power unto my two witnesses and they shall [b]prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.

Revelation 11:3 I had rather translate it illud than illam, the Temple than the city: for God saith, I will give that Temple, and commit it unto my two witnesses, that is unto the Ministers of the word, who are few indeed, weak and contemptible: but yet two, that is, of such a number as one of them may help another, and one confirm the testimony of another unto all men, that from the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be made good amongst men, 2 Cor. 13:1.
Revelation 11:3 They shall exercise their office enjoined by me by the space of those thousand two hundred and sixty years, in the midst of afflictions though never so lamentable which is figuratively showed by the mourning garment.

Back in 1599, some saw the 1260 as years like you do.

I simply posted what those who compiled the 1599 Geneva Bible had for Daniel 9:27 verse..

How can it be wrong context when the topic is Daniel 9:27?

You simply disagree with their premise..

That’s okay.

They had a different view of Rome and Popish things than those today,too.

1599 Geneva Bible study notes on Daniel 9:27

27 And he [a]shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to [b]cease, [c]and for the overspreading of the abominations, he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

Footnotes

Daniel 9:27 By the preaching of the Gospel he confirmed his promise, first to the Jews, and after to the Gentiles.
Daniel 9:27 Christ accomplished this by his death and resurrection.
Daniel 9:27 Meaning, that Jerusalem and the Sanctuary should be utterly destroyed for their rebellion against God, and their idolatry: or as some read, that the plague shall be so great, that they shall be all astonied at them.

The culture of death has some pro lifers accepting 15 week mark as a watered down stance.

Those pro lifers are really hypocrites at their core willing to tilt to the culture of death..

The culture of death needs to die for life to win..

Until that death cult take its dirt nap, the compromise with the cult of death continues..

Until it gets its wish. And dies..

Life liberty and pursuit of happiness was as hypocritical a theme in 1864 as it is in 2024..

It does say the mark will be in your forehead or in your hand. that tells me it’s some sort of microchip or something.

Exodus 13

9This observance will be for you like a sign on your hand and a reminder on your forehead that this law of the Lord is to be on your lips. For the Lord brought you out of Egypt with his mighty hand. 10You must keep this ordinance at the appointed time year after year.

16And it will be like a sign on your hand and a symbol on your forehead that the Lord brought us out of Egypt with his mighty hand.”

Seems to me revelation at Sinai to millions— who experienced it and believed it (they knew it, seeing is believing,)— is better proof.
.....

They experienced it about 60 days after Passover, then was left alone for 40 days, without Moses, and failed miserably and ended up with the death of about 3,000..

They didn’t believe the spies and had to wander for 40 years in the wilderness.. and most died in the wilderness..

Amazing that so many actually experienced, and believed it, then failed to keep the experience or the faith..

Wayside,rocky and thorny was an experience for Israel way before New Covenant Church was introduced to it in a Parable..
