YAHWEH'S
FEASTS
His Shadow From Things To
Come
The Feast of Trumpets .
The Day Of
Atonement
The Feast Of Tabernacles &
The Last Great Day
This world's governments are going to pass away, along with all the lusts that are rampant in this world. Those who keep Yahweh's Laws will abide forever under the shadow of Yahweh. Those who will practice what Yahweh says will be protected from the wars, sickness, disease, and death that will soon come upon this earth.
Yahweh's feasts are Yahweh's shadow from the things that are coming. It is vitally important that you keep Yahweh's Feasts exactly according to Yahweh's ordinances! Not only does keeping Yahweh's Feasts assure you of His protection from the horrors that will soon strike all mankind, they also assure that you will receive eternal life, if you practice obeying every word of every Law that proceeds from Yahweh's mouth. Remember, it is not the hearers of Yahweh's Laws who will be justified; it is the doers of Yahweh's Laws who will be accounted worthy, as you may read for yourself.
Romans
2:13—
For not the hearers of
the Law are the righteous in the sight of Yahweh,
but the doers of the Law are the righteous.
Revelation
22:14—
Blessed are those
who keep His Law, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may
enter in through the gates into the city.
If you keep Yahweh's Feasts, they are Yahweh's shadow over you from the things that are coming. If you do not keep Yahweh's Feasts exactly according to His written ordinances, then you are keeping your own feast. Yahweh plainly shows that unless His ordained Feasts are kept on the exact day, according to His exact governing ordinances, and at the place He has established to set His Name, those feasts would definitely not be His Feasts. Those feasts would be your feasts, which Yahweh says He hates.
Isayah
1:14-15—
14 Your new moons and
your appointed feasts My soul hates! They are a trouble to
Me! I am weary of bearing them!
15 So, when you spread forth your
hands, I will hide My eyes from you.
Yes, even though you make many prayers, I will not listen,
for your hands are full of blood.
If the feasts are not kept exactly according to Yahweh's ordinances, nor in the place He has chosen to establish His Name (at The House of Yahweh), then you become disobedient to Yahweh, which is what cuts you off from Yahweh. Yahweh will simply not be with you because you have cut yourself off from Him.
Isayah
59:1-2—
1 Behold, Yahweh's hand is not
shortened, that it cannot save; nor His ear heavy, that it cannot hear.
2 But your own
iniquities have separated you from your Father; and
your own sins have caused Him
to hide His face from you, so He will not listen.
This
simple
Law of Yahweh states that three times a year we are to keep a Feast to
Yahweh.
Exodus
23:14—
Three times in the year shall you
keep a Feast to Me:
This Law is intended for every man, woman, and child on the face of the earth. Yahweh does not exclude anyone from keeping His perfect Laws.
Deuteronomy
16:14—
And you shall rejoice at your
Feast—you and your wife (wives),
your son, your daughter, your manservant, your
maidservant, the Levite, the stranger, and the fatherless, and the
widows in your cities—
Deuteronomy
10:17—
For Yahweh your Father is King of
kings and Ruler of rulers, the great Power, mighty and wonderful, Who
shows no partiality to persons, nor takes a bribe.
Yahweh has listed His Feasts in Leviticus 23. Contrary to popular Christian teachings, these are not feasts of Moses, nor are they the feasts of the Jews. Yahweh has said emphatically:
Leviticus
23:2—
...these are MY FEASTS.
Yahweh has also ordained Holy Convocations during His ordained year. These Holy Convocations are also listed in Leviticus 23, and are as follows:
Yahweh's
Weekly
Sabbath:
Leviticus
23:3—
Six days shall work be done, but the
Seventh Day is a Sabbath of solemn rest, a Holy Convocation.
You shall do no work on it. It is the Sabbath of
Yahweh in all your dwellings.
In addition to the weekly seventh day Sabbath, there are seven Holy Convocations during Yahweh's sacred year.
(1) The First Holy Day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread:
Leviticus 23:6-7—
6 And on the Fifteenth Day of the same Moon is the Feast of Unleavened Bread to Yahweh; seven days you must eat unleavened bread.
7 On the first day you shall have a Holy Convocation; you shall do no regular work on it,
(2) The Last Holy Day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread:
Leviticus 23:8—
8 But you shall offer an offering made by fire to Yahweh for seven days. The seventh day shall be a Holy Convocation; you shall do no regular work on it.
(3) The Day of Pentecost:
Leviticus 23:21—
And you shall proclaim on that same day that it may be a Holy Convocation to you; Shabuot; the Feast of Weeks, the Feast of Firstfruits. You shall do no regular work on it. It shall be a statute forever in all your dwellings throughout your generations.
(4) The Feast of Trumpets:
Leviticus 23:24-25—
24 Speak to the children of Israyl, saying; In the Seventh Moon, on the First of the Moon, you shall have a Sabbath, a Memorial of Blowing of Trumpets; The Feast of Trumpets, a Holy Convocation.
25 You shall do no regular work on it; but you shall offer an offering made by fire to Yahweh.
(5) The Day of Atonement:
Leviticus 23:27—
Also the Tenth of this Seventh Moon is the Day of Atonement. It shall be a Holy Convocation for you. You shall afflict your souls, and offer an offering made by fire to Yahweh.
(6) The First Holy Day of The Feast of Tabernacles:
Leviticus 23:34-35—
34 Speak to the children of Israyl, saying; The Fifteenth Day of this Seventh Moon is the Feast of Tabernacles for seven days unto Yahweh.
35 On the first day there shall be a Holy Convocation; you shall do no regular work upon it;
(7) The Last Great Day:
Leviticus 23:36—
But for seven days you shall offer an offering made by fire to Yahweh. On the eighth day you shall have a Holy Convocation; The Last Great Day, and you shall offer an offering made by fire to Yahweh. It is the Closing Gathering of Yahweh's Sacred Year, and you shall do no customary, regular work upon it.
If you will count for yourself, you will find that Yahweh has seven Holy Convocations—seven Sabbaths—besides His weekly Seventh Day Sabbath. Therefore, in order for this to be a holy meeting for assembling and reading, Yahweh Himself must also be there, and if Yahweh is not there, these convocations will not be holy.
Yahweh's ordinances concerning His Feast Days are just as much a part of His Law as His ordinances concerning His weekly Sabbath Day.
In this article, we will be focusing on the Feast of Trumpets, the Day of Atonement and the Feast of Tabernacles & the Last Great Day.
The Feast of Trumpets
We
are
commanded to keep the Feast of Trumpets in Leviticus
23.
Leviticus
23:23-25—
23 And Yahweh spoke to Mosheh,
saying:
24 Speak to the children of
Israyl, saying; In the Seventh Moon, on the First of the
Moon, you shall have a Sabbath, a Memorial of Blowing of Trumpets;
The Feast of Trumpets, a Holy
Convocation.
25 You shall do no regular
work on it; but you shall offer an offering made
by fire to Yahweh.
The Feast of Trumpets is an ordained Feast of Yahweh and a Sabbath on which none of your regular work is to be done. It is a day of worship unto Yahweh and a Holy Convocation.
We should gather together and attend the Holy Convocation services at The House of Yahweh in Abilene, Texas if at all possible. However, if there is no ordained priest of Yahweh in your area, Yahweh has given command that the Feast of Trumpets, as an ordained Feast of Yahweh, should remain holy between you and Yahweh as a Sabbath day, in the privacy of your own home.
It is a Sabbath day in which none of your regular work is to be done, but the day is to be spent in reverence and worship to Father Yahweh and participating in His great Work.
The Feast of Trumpets marks or calls our attention to the anticipated ending of Yahweh's sacred year, just as the New Moon of Green Ears of Barley marks or calls our attention to the anticipated beginning of the sacred year of Yahweh. Yahweh has called out His chosen ones in these Last Days to return to the Faith once delievered to the Saints.
The Feast of Trumpets is not the end of Yahweh's sacred year; it is the memorial that the last moon (the seventh moon), of Yahweh's sacred year has begun. In Yahweh's seventh and last moon of His sacred year, the Day of Atonement falls on the tenth day, the Feast of Tabernacles falls on the fifteenth through twenty-first day and the Last Great Day falls on the twenty-second day. All of these Feasts of Yahweh are to be remembered in Yahweh's seventh moon.
Yahweh has a Plan which He ordained from the beginning that those who would follow Him in complete submission, obeying every Word that proceeds from His mouth, would keep the Feast of Trumpets by His ordinances and by His commandment, beginning at the sighting of the visible seventh moon of His sacred year.
Do not turn from Yahweh's Way in any manner. Yahweh has ordained His Way in the Holy Scriptures and we are to obey Him only. We are also to keep the Feast of Trumpets as a memorial, a remembrance, that the last moon of Yahweh's sacred year has begun, and we are to celebrate it as a Sabbath.
The Feast of Trumpets pictures the Work of Yhaweh which is described in Scriptures as the blowing of a trumpet. We are now in the days of the last, or seventh, trumpeter. For complete details on the last Work, you need the 11-tape sermon series on the seventh trumpeter entitled The Finishing Work Of The Seventh Messenger. Write or call The House of Yahweh for more information on this sermon series.
Revelation
10:7—
But in the days of the voice of
the seventh malak, when he will begin to sound, the great secret of
Yahweh would be finished, as He declared to His servants the prophets.
Notice
that
this is the same trumpet that sounds when Yahshua Messiah returns.
Mattithyah
24:30-31—
30 And then will appear the sign
of the Son of Man in heaven; and then will all those of the earth who
are hostile to and have rejected
Yahweh—and who have turned their hearts to gods
(elohim)—will mourn, for they will see the Son of Man coming
in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
31 And He will send His malakim with
a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His
elect from the four winds, from one end of earth to the other.
The Day Of Atonement
The first day of the seventh moon is the Feast of Trumpets, which marks the beginning of a ten day period of spiritual self-examination and repentance, which culminates with the Day of Atonement. Intensive prayer and fasting are the central mood of this Holy Day. Acknowledgement of Yahweh as the Head of His Family, The House of Yahweh, should be the major theme of your prayers. The ordinances of the Day of Atonement are given in Leviticus.
Leviticus
23:26-32—
26 And Yahweh spoke to Mosheh,
saying:
27 Also the Tenth of this Seventh
Moon is the Day of Atonement. It shall be a Holy Convocation for you.
You shall afflict your souls, and offer an offering
made by fire to Yahweh.
28 You shall do no work
at all on that same day, for it is the Day of Atonement, to
make atonement for you in front of Yahweh your Heavenly Father.
29 Any person who is not
afflicted on that same day, he shall be cut off from his people.
30 Any person who does any work
on that same day, he shall be cut off from among his people.
31 You shall do no manner of work
at all; it shall be a statute forever
throughout your generations in all your dwellings, wherever
you may live.
32 It is to you a
Sabbath of rest, and you shall afflict yourselves. On the Ninth of the
Moon at evening; at the setting of the sun, through
the Tenth of the Moon at evening; at the setting of the sun, from
evening until evening, you shall celebrate your Sabbath.
The Scriptural commandment to afflict your souls is observed and obeyed by a complete and total fast; by eating and drinking nothing for the entire twenty-four hour period of the Day of Atonement. The Day of Atonement is from the ninth day of the seventh moon at sunset through the tenth day of the seventh moon at sunset.
We find the commandment from Yahweh our Father to completely rest on the Day of Atonement. We are to do no manner of regular work. This day should be spent in prayer and study of the Scriptures. If it is at all possible, we should attend the Holy Convocation services at The House of Yahweh in Abilene, Texas. However, if there is no ordained priest of Yahweh in your local area, Yahweh has commanded that the Day of Atonement as an ordained Feast of Yahweh, should remain holy between you and Yahweh, as a Sabbath day of complete rest, in the privacy of your own home.
Much can be said about the benefits of fasting for health, and you will be able to find many books on this subject. Since the Day of Atonement is about spiritual benefits, the complete fast on this day cleanses the body and mind of carnal passions; clearing your mind and strengthening the spiritual senses.
The complete fast to Yahweh on the Day of Atonement shows us, rather quickly, just how dependent we are on the foods Yahweh created for us. We begin to see how really weak we are in only a few hours without food or water. We are quickly made aware of our need for Yahweh, Who created all things for us, and Who alone can sustain our lives and grant us eternal life.
The Acceptable Fast
Yahweh teaches us to love one another, and to love Him.
I
Thessalonians
4:9—
But concerning brotherly love,
you have no need that I write to you; for you yourselves are taught by
Yahweh to love one another;
Notice in this Scripture that the Apostle Shaul said that Yahweh teaches us to love. Another fact you should note is what is known as the New Testament was not even written at the time Shaul was speaking, so the love Shaul was speaking of was found only in what is commonly known as the Old Testament, or more specifically, the Laws of Yahweh. The Apostle Yahchanan wrote more about this.
I
Yahchanan
5:3—
For this is the love of Yahweh:
That we keep His Law, and His Law is not grievous.
The Day of Atonement actually tests our love. The acceptable fast to Yahweh would be to take what you would have eaten on that day and give that food to someone else, preferably to someone who is in need. When we love others enough to fast so someone else can eat, we have begun to overcome selfishness, and have made great steps towards becoming the kind of person Yahweh definitely wants us to be.
Does this mean we should go find a person we feel is poor and give them our food? By no means. We are to donate this food to Yahweh's House to provide for those in need. We also may give a monetary donation equal to the total cost of the food we would have consumed during this day. Again, we should give this donation to Yahweh's House to provide for those in need. In this way, we are showing love by not seeking our own glory, but allowing all honor and glory to go to our Father Yahweh through His House.
Giving our food to others who need it is not the ultimate love, but it is a great beginning toward that ultimate love and that is what Yahweh is teaching us on His great and wonderful Day of Atonement. We are told about the acceptable fast to Yahweh in Isayah.
Isayah
58:6-12—
6 Is this not
the kind of fast that I have
chosen: to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, to
let the oppressed go free, and that you break every yoke?
7 Is it not
to share your bread with the hungry, and that you
bring to your house the poor who are cast out; when you see the naked,
that you cover him, and not hide yourself from your own flesh?
8 Then your light will break
forth like the morning, and your health will spring forth speedily, and
your righteousness will go before you; the glory of Yahweh will be your
corrector; to cleanse and purify.
9 Then you will call, and Yahweh
will answer; you will cry, and He will say: Here I am. If
you take away the yoke from your midst, the pointing of the finger, and
speaking vanity; iniquity, unrighteousness;
10 And if you extend yourself on
behalf of the hungry, to satisfy the afflicted soul; then
your light will rise in obscurity, and your darkness will be as
the noonday.
11 Yahweh will guide you
continually, and satisfy your soul in drought, and make fat; strengthen,
your bones. You will be like a watered garden, and like
a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.
12 And those of you will rebuild
the old waste places; you will raise up the foundations of many
generations; and you will be called the Repairer of the Breach, the
Restorer of Streets to Dwell In;
Many people today profess to have love for others, but how many people do you know of who would go without food so they could give that food to someone who is hungry? Yet that is the love that our Heavenly Father desires us to have for one another.
When we celebrate the Day of Atonement, as Yahweh instructed and ordained, we show that we love our brothers as much as we love ourselves. When we celebrate the Day of Atonement as Yahweh instructed and ordained, we are also showing our Faith through our works.
Yaaqob
2:14-20—
14 What does it profit,
my brothers, if a man says he has faith, but does not keep the Laws of
Yahweh? The faith is not able to save him.
15 If a brother or sister is
naked, and destitute of daily food,
16 And one of you says to them:
Depart in peace, be warmed and filled; but you do not give them the
things which are needed for the body; what does it profit?
17 In the same way, the faith, if
it does not keep the Laws of Yahweh, is dead, being alone.
18 Yes, a man may say: You have
faith, and I keep the Laws of Yahweh. Show me your faith without your
keeping the Laws of Yahweh, and I will show you my faith by my keeping
the Laws of Yahweh!
19 You believe that there is one
Father? You do well; the demons (elohim) also believe, and tremble.
20 But are you
willing to know, O vain man, that the faith without
keeping the Laws of Yahweh is dead?
When we can advance to the point of keeping the Day of Atonement by showing our Faith by our works, we will then come to AT-ONE-MENT with our Father Yahweh through His Son Yahshua Messiah. We will also be accepted by Yahweh into His Kingdom and will enter the Marriage Supper as brides because we love Yahweh enough to obey Him by living by every Word that proceeds from His mouth.
The Feast of Tabernacles
It is revealed in many Scriptures that the number six often refers to mankind's number. Six days of each week are given to man, but the seventh day was made holy to Yahweh.
Exodus
20:9-10—
9 Six days you shall labor and do
all your work,
10 But the Seventh Day is the
Sabbath of Yahweh your Heavenly Father. In it you
shall not do your work—neither your wife;
neither your son; neither your daughter; neither your manservant;
neither your maidservant; neither your cattle; neither the stranger who
dwells within your gates.
Six years were given for mankind to harvest the fields he had planted, but the seventh year was a Sabbath year of rest.
Exodus
23:10-11—
10 Six years shall you sow your
land, and gather in its produce,
11 But the seventh year
you shall let it rest and lie fallow, so that the poor among your
people may get food from it, and the wild animals may eat what is left.
Do the same with your vineyard and your olive grove.
Yahweh then ordained His Jubilee year, when men are to loose their hold on their fellow brother; seven times seven Sabbath years are numbered, then the Jubilee year is the Fiftieth year.
Leviticus
25:8-13—
8 And you shall count seven
Sabbaths of years for yourself, seven times seven years; and the time
of the seven Sabbaths of years shall be to you forty-nine years.
9 Then you have the Trumpet of
the Jubilee sounded everywhere on the Tenth Day of the Seventh Moon; on
the Day of Atonement sound the trumpet throughout your land.
10 Consecrate the fiftieth year,
and proclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It
shall be a Jubilee for you; and each of you shall return to his
possession, and each of you shall return to his family.
11 That fiftieth year shall be a
Jubilee to you. In it you shall neither sow nor reap what grows
voluntarily, nor gather the grapes from your
untended vines.
12 For it is the Jubilee; it
shall be holy to you; you shall eat its produce from the field.
13 In this Year of Jubilee each
of you shall return to his possession.
The Feast of Tabernacles is made up of seven days, but at the end of the Feast of Tabernacles Yahweh added another Sabbath, the Last Great Day. The Apostle Shaul tells us that the Feasts of Yahweh are a shadow from things to come. For complete information about this fact, write for our free booklet, What Yahweh's Feasts Mean To You. The Apostle Shaul also tells us that Yahweh's Feasts are a pattern.
Hebrews
8:5—
They serve at a
sanctuary that is the pattern and shadow of the heavenly
things, as Mosheh was admonished by Yahweh when he was about to make
the tabernacle. For He said: See that you make all things according to
the pattern shown you on the mountain.
The word translated pattern is tupos, word #5179 in Strong's Greek Dictionary and means style or resemblance, pattern.
The Apostle Shaul knew the Plan of Yahweh was revealed in the holy days Yahweh gave to man. When we understand what Yahweh's Holy Convocations picture during His Feasts, we come to understand the future events that are soon to take place. Keep that fact in mind as you read Shaul's inspired statements.
Romans
1:17-20—
17 For in this message is
the righteousness of Yahweh revealed, originating from
the faith and leading to the faith; as it is
written: The just will live by the faith.
18 For the justice of Yahweh is
revealed from heaven concerning all unholiness and unrighteousness of
men or women, who suppress the truth in
unrighteousness.
19 For that which is known about
Yahweh is manifest to them, because Yahweh has shown it
to them.
20 For since the creation of the
world, the invisible things of Him are clearly seen—His
eternal power and holiness—being
understood by the things that are written; so that they are without
excuse.
Yahweh's Righteousness Revealed
Many people today believe that Yahweh is a cruel Being, because He has allowed mankind to suffer for almost 6,000 years. However, when we understand the whole Plan of Yahweh for man, we then understand why Yahweh allowed man to go his own way for this period of time.
By understanding Yahweh's entire Plan, we also see His righteousness revealed. Yahweh's Message in these Last Days is to reveal His righteousness. Yahweh has not allowed His people to guess about what His righteousness is. It is clearly written for our understanding.
Deuteronomy
6:25—
And it will be our
righteousness, if we observe to do all of this Law before
Yahweh our Father, as He has commanded us.
Yahweh's Plan is to create man to be a perfect being, just as He and Yahshua are. The ones who will become perfect are those who do Yahweh's righteousness, who practice the Laws of Yahweh. Yahweh's Plan is a perfect Plan of salvation for a new world, where peace, justice and joy await Yahweh's creation, because each and every one of Yahweh's Laws will be obeyed completely.
Through the pattern of the Feasts of Yahweh, we see the Plan of Yahweh. We will now see what the Apostle Shaul so clearly saw pictured through the Feast of Tabernacles.
As Yahweh gave mankind six days to labor, Yahweh has also given mankind 6,000 years to go his own way. Mankind is now laboring in his own rebellion against the only way that will bring peace and joy to man.
Yahweh is in complete control of His creation and Yahweh most assuredly could have restrained man and forced him to live in peace. However, man would have always said, "I could have had a better life if You had let me go my own way. If only You had allowed me to do it my way."
Due to the infinite knowledge Yahweh has, He has allowed man to go his own way and nothing is being restrained from him. Yahweh, our loving Father, has warned mankind what his own way of life would bring. He warned mankind of the curses he would bring upon himself. He warned him that one day near the end of the 6,000 year period, mankind would annihilate every human life on this planet unless Yahweh stopped him. Yahweh will not step into mankind's affairs until all hope of life on earth is gone. When mankind has depleted every life-giving source and there is absolutely no hope for survival, only then will our loving Father Yahweh intervene in the affairs of mankind to save His creation from utter destruction.
The
Feast
of Tabernacles
First Six Days: Man's Six
Thousand Years
The first six days of the Feast of Tabernacles picture Yahweh allowing mankind 6,000 years of government of the people, by the people and against Yahweh. It pictures mankind living his own way without Yahweh's intervention, except in the lives of those whom He calls out of this world, using them to bring His warning Message to the unrestrained world.
The
Feast
of Tabernacles
The Seventh Day:
Yahweh's
One Thousand Years
Just as the seventh day of each week is Yahweh's Sabbath day, the seventh 1,000 year period in Yahweh's Plan is the period when Yahweh will restrain Satan and stop the destruction, hurt and pain which mankind has brought upon themselves for the first 6,000 years of man's history. We see the way peace will be brought to the earth.
Revelation
20:1-6—
1 And I saw a malak come down
from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in
his hand.
2 And he laid hold on the dragon,
that old serpent, who is the Devil, and Satan, and bound her a thousand
years__
3 And cast her into the
bottomless pit, and shut her up, and set a seal upon her, that she
should deceive the nations no more, until the thousand years should be
finished; and after that she must be loosed a little season.
4 And I saw thrones, and they sat
upon them, and judgment was given unto them. And I saw
the souls of those who were beheaded for their witness of Yahshua and
for the word of Yahweh; the Law and the Prophets,
and who had not worshipped the beast, nor his likeness, neither had
received his mark in their foreheads nor upon their
hands; and they lived and reigned with the
Messiah a thousand years—
5 But the rest of the dead did
not live again until the thousand years were finished. This is
the first resurrection—
6 Blessed and holy is he
who has part in the first resurrection; on such the second death has no
power, but they will be priests of Yahweh and of the Messiah, and will
reign with Him a thousand years.
During the seventh 1,000 year period of Yahweh's Plan, Yahweh will rebuild the earth that mankind had almost completely destroyed. Of equal importance, through His 144,000 priesthood, Yahweh will start teaching mankind how to live in true peace and true joy. Satan will be restrained: she will be unable to deceive mankind during this time period. During this 1,000 years of peace, mankind will then be forced to live by the perfect Laws of Yahweh.
During this 1,000 years of peace, all nations on earth will be forced to come together to keep Yahweh's great Feast of Tabernacles, as well as Yahweh's Passover Feast of Unleavened Bread and Yahweh's Feast of Weeks (Pentecost). By being forced to keep Yahweh's love Feasts, the people will learn Yahweh's Ways of peace and joy. All nations will worship Yahweh together in love and they will all learn Yahweh's Way of love. Most assuredly, there will be no other denominations or sects during the 1,000 years of peace.
The Prophet Zecharyah tells about the time in Yahweh's Plan when Yahweh will be the supreme Head and ruler over all the earth and will use His Laws to bring peace to all nations. Yes, Yahweh will then force all nations to come together, not in war as they are doing now, but in peace to share the love Feasts with each other.
Zecharyah
14:1-5,9,11-12,16-21—
1 Behold, the day of Yahweh
comes, and your plunder will be divided in the midst of you;
2 For all nations
will be gathered against Yerusalem to battle; and the city will be
taken, the houses rifled, and the women ravished. And half of the city
will go into captivity, but the remainder of the people will not be cut
off from the city.
3 Then Yahweh will go forth and
bring a legal dispute against those nations, as He will bring a legal
dispute in the day of judgment.
4 And in that day the two
teachers; the Two Witnesses, will stand in The
House of Yahweh. But the Witness who is the priest
who teaches peace will turn away because of the sorcery that was
brought from the east, so the two teachers; the Two
Witnesses, will separate; one to the east of the other, for
the sin of godworship (the worship of Elohim) will be very great; and
one of the two teachers; Witnesses, will move to
the protected place of Yahweh, and the other teacher; Witness,
into sin.
5 Then you will flee through
this valley of the mountains; for the valley of the
mountains will extend to Azal. Yes, you will flee, just as you fled
from the earthquake in the days of Uzzyah; Azaryah, king
of Yahdah. And Yahweh my Father will come, and all
the saints with Him.
9 And Yahweh will be the Heavenly
Father over all the earth! In that day Yahweh will prove to be a Unity
and His Name One.
11 Men will
dwell in it, and there will be no more utter destruction; cherem,
but Yerusalem will be safely inhabited.
12 And it will come to pass that
this will be the plague which will strike all the peoples who have
fought against The House of Yahweh at Abel and
the priest who teaches peace: Their flesh will consume away while they
stand upon their feet, and their eyes will consume away in their
sockets, and their tongues will consume away in their mouths.
16 Then it will come to
pass that everyone who survives of all the nations which came against The
House of Yahweh at Abel and the priest
who teaches peace, will also go up from year to year to worship their
Heavenly Father, Yahweh of hosts, by keeping the Feasts at
The House of Yahweh.
17 And it will be that if
any families of the earth will not come up to The House of
Yahweh at Abel and the priest who teaches
peace to worship their Heavenly Father, Yahweh of hosts, then upon them
will be no rain; blessings.
18 If the family of Egypt will
not come and present themselves, it will come to pass that they will
cause themselves to be afflicted by the plagues that come to pass upon
the nations who will not come up to keep the Feasts at
The House of Yahweh.
19 This will be what Egypt will
suffer, and all nations will suffer, that do not go up to keep the
Feasts at The House of Yahweh.
20 In that day there will even
be engraved on the bells of the horses: Qodesh
La-Yahweh; Holy to Yahweh; and the pots in
Yahweh's House will be like the bowls before the altar.
21 Yes, every pot in The
House of Yahweh at Abel and the priest who teaches peace and
those who reverence Yahweh will be holy to Yahweh of hosts, so that all
who sacrifice may come and take of them, and boil the meat of the
sacrifices in them. And in that day there will no longer be a
Canaanite; a god (el) worshipper, in The House of
Yahweh of hosts.
What a wonderful time that will be when Yahweh brings all the warring nations in this world under control. The threat and fear of warfare will be past history; the nations will have peace for 1,000 years.
Those who refuse to obey Yahweh's Laws at that time will have no rain. If they continue to rebel, they will be destroyed. However, as the people of the world begin to submit to Yahweh, the blessings of Yahweh will come to them.
This is what the seventh day of the Feast of Tabernacles represents: A 1,000 year reign of peace upon earth, with the saints as the 144,000 priesthood under Yahshua Messiah in the Kingdom of Yahweh.
The Last Great Day
Although Scriptures plainly show that the Feast of Tabernacles is to be celebrated for seven days, there is a Holy Convocation, a Sabbath of rest, celebrated on the eighth day.
Leviticus
23:36-37—
36 But for seven
days you shall offer an offering made by fire to
Yahweh. On the eighth day you shall have a Holy Convocation; The
Last Great Day, and you shall offer an offering made by fire
to Yahweh. It is the Closing Gathering of Yahweh's Sacred
Year, and you shall do no customary, regular work upon
it.
37 These are the
Feasts of Yahweh which you shall proclaim to be Holy
Convocations, to offer an offering made by fire to Yahweh, a burnt
offering, a grain offering, a sacrifice, and drink offerings, required
on each day.
We have already seen that the first six days of the Feast of Tabernacles picture the 6,000 years of man's unrestrained rule on the earth.
We have already seen that the seventh day of the Feast of Tabernacles pictures the 1,000 years of peace on earth with Yahweh as Supreme Head, Yahshua Messiah directly under Him with the 144,000 priesthood directly under the authority of Yahshua.
We will now see what the eighth day represents in the Plan of Yahweh.
The Meaning Of The Last Great Day
We
will see
that the eighth day pictures the great white throne judgment of
mankind.
Revelation
20:7-15—
7 And when the thousand years are
expired, Satan will be loosed out of her prison,
8 And will go out to deceive; seduce
to lead astray, the nations which are in the four quarters of
the earth: Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle; the number
of whom is as the sand of the sea.
9 And they went up on the breadth
of the earth, and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved
city. And it came to pass that fire came down from out of heaven and
consumed them.
10 And the devil, who deceived
them; seduced and led them astray, was cast into
the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet had
been cast, and will be tormented a day and a night because
of the ages.
11 And I saw a great white
throne, and Him Who sat on it, from Whose face the earth and the heaven
fled away; and there was found no place for them.
12 And I saw the dead, small and
great, standing before Yahweh. And the books were opened; and another
book was opened, which is The Book of Life. And
the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the
books, according to their works.
13 And the sea gave up the dead
which were in it; and Death and Sheol; the grave, delivered
up the dead which were in them. And they were judged, every man,
according to their works.
14 And Death and Sheol were cast
into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
15 And whoever was not found
written in The Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.
In Revelation 20:2, we see that Satan is bound for 1,000 years. In Revelation 20:7, we see that Satan is loosed again. Satan is bound at the beginning of the Millennial Reign (the seventh 1,000 year period pictured as the seventh day of the Feast of Tabernacles). Satan is loosed at the end of the 1,000 year period.
You may ask the question (unless you have already read our books The Mark of the Beast, Volume One & Two), why is Satan loosed again to deceive the world? The answer is that everyone who enters Yahweh's Kingdom must prove that he or she will resist Satan and her way and completely obey Yahweh and His Way.
In order to prove that they will obey Yahweh completely, the ones alive after the 1,000 years of peace will have to prove that they will resist and overcome Satan, just as the ones of the 144,000 priesthood had to. At the end of the 1,000 years, all the people of the world who didn't have the opportunity to know Yahweh will be resurrected, along with those still alive on the earth at that time. These people will be given the opportunity to overcome and resist Satan and prove themselves obedient to Yahweh, just as the ones of the 144,000 priesthood did. The difference is that when these people are resurrected and Satan is loosed on the earth again, mankind will have set before them 7,000 years of history.
By the time Satan is loosed on the earth again, mankind will have already seen the effects of 6,000 years of governments of the people, by the people and against Yahweh, which brought disease, sickness, war, suffering, famine, poverty, hatred, injustice and the near destruction of the world.
Mankind will also have had the opportunity of seeing the effects of 1,000 years of Yahweh's leadership. This will be a 1,000 year period of history with no wars, sicknesses or diseases, with only peace and blessings for all.
At the time Satan is loosed on the earth again, mankind will not be able to say that he could have had peace if Yahweh would have only let him go his own way. By this time, mankind will have had 7,000 years of history and he will have been able to prove that the only things which come by following the ways of man are curses. Man will certainly not be able to say, ever again, that Yahweh's Laws are a burden as deceived preachers would try to tell you today.
Satan Loosed To Deceive
It seems sad that anyone would ever be deceived into following Satan again, especially since there will be 7,000 years of history set before mankind at that time. However, that is exactly what will come to pass when Satan is loosed again. With such a transparent history before mankind, it would seem that all people on earth would be totally willing to be obedient to Yahweh only, but that will not be so.
At the end of the seventh 1,000 year period, when Satan is loosed again, she will still persuade thousands of individuals to reject the Laws of Yahweh, just as she deceives the whole world into rejecting Yahweh's Laws today.
The time Satan will be loosed is the very time of the Great White Throne Judgment, pictured as the eighth day, the Last Great Day.
The Judgment Of The Rest Of The Dead
In Revelation 20:4,6, we see that only those who were called out, who became the saints of Yahweh are resurrected in the First Resurrection to be given eternal life and be the 144,000 priesthood in the Kingdom of Yahweh to reign in the 1,000 years of peace.
Revelation
20:5—
But the rest of the dead did not
live again until the thousand years were finished. This is
the first resurrection—
Revelation 20:5 plainly says that the rest of the dead will not be resurrected until the 1,000 years of peace are accomplished. The rest of the dead includes the unborn children who never had an opportunity to accept Yahweh's Way of life, as well as all of those who throughout the centuries never heard of the Name of Yahweh, along with those who were not called out in this age.
The Prophet Isayah shows that all of these people will be given their only opportunity to study the history of man, and then to either accept Yahweh's Way and receive eternal life or to accept Satan's way and die the second death in the lake of fire.
Isayah
65:20—
No longer will there be in it an
infant of only a few days, nor an old man who does not fill out his
life; for the child will die a hundred years old, but the sinner being
one hundred years old will be accursed; burned.
The people who are resurrected in the Second Resurrection will have exactly the same opportunity that you and I have today. We must overcome for we will never be given another opportunity. They must overcome when Satan is loosed after the 1,000 years of peace. They will be given 100 years to live and study to show themselves approved and will be judged for what they do in the allotted time Yahweh will give them.
Yahweh's
Judgment Of Mankind
Yahweh's Great White
Throne
The Great White Throne Judgment is the time period when the rest of the dead are being judged by Yahweh. They will be judged by the same set of Laws, statutes and judgments that those in the first resurrection are being judged by.
Revelation
20:12-13—
12 And I saw the dead, small and
great, standing before Yahweh. And the books were opened; and another
book was opened, which is The Book of Life. And
the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the
books, according to their works.
13 And the sea gave up the dead
which were in it; and Death and Sheol; the grave, delivered
up the dead which were in them. And they were judged, every man,
according to their works.
The seventh day of the Feast of Tabernacles and the Last Great Day picture the very end time of the age of man, with the Kingdom of Yahweh being set up on earth, populated with those who obey Yahweh only.
The Apostle Shaul said that the Sabbath days of Yahweh and the Feasts of Yahweh are the shadow of Yahweh to protect His House from things to come, just as Colossians 2:17 says.
Colossians
2:17—
Which are a shadow from things to
come for the body of Messiah.
I
Corinthians
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.
We must keep Yahweh's ordained Feasts at the place He has chosen to establish His Name.
The Place Yahweh Has Chosen To Establish His Name In These Last Days
Over the years many people have written us, requesting information about keeping Yahweh's Feasts in their own homes. The answer to this question has always been the same. The Scriptures do not allow anyone to observe the Feasts of Yahweh in any place other than the place Yahweh Himself chooses.
To observe the Feasts in any other place, except the place Yahweh has chosen to establish His Name, would bring only curses upon anyone trying to do so, and would result in that person being shut off from Yahweh. This is true whether you are acting on your own or whether you are following any church or assembly.
Deuteronomy
12:5-8—
5 But you are to seek
the habitation of your Father; The House of Yahweh__the
place which Yahweh your Father shall choose out of all
your tribes to establish His Name__and
there you must go.
6 There you must bring your burnt
offerings and sacrifices, your tithes, and special gifts you have vowed
to give, your freewill offerings, and the firstborn of your herds and
flocks.
7 There, in front of Yahweh your
Father, you and your families shall eat, and you shall rejoice in all
that you have put your hand to do, because Yahweh your Father has
blessed you.
8 You must not at all
do as we are doing here this day—every man
doing whatever is right in his own eyes.
Notice verse five again carefully, which says: "You are to seek the habitation of your Father; The House of Yahweh__the place which Yahweh your Father shall choose out of all your tribes to establish His Name, and there you must go.''
This is a Law of Yahweh. We are to search for the place Yahweh chooses, and then we are to go to the place Yahweh has chosen. If we do not obey this Law, we simply will not be keeping a Feast of Yahweh; we will be keeping a feast of our own.
In the Scriptures we read that Yahweh rejected the place where Gods were being worshipped.
Beginning in the reign of King David, Yerusalem was the place where people came to keep the Feasts, but Yerusalem was rejected because of God worship.
Yeremyah
7:1-34—
1 This is the word that came to
Yeremyah from Yahweh, saying:
2 Stand in the gate of The House
of Yahweh, and proclaim this word there, and say: Hear the word of
Yahweh, all you of Yahdah who enter in through
these gates to worship Yahweh!
3 This is what Yahweh of hosts,
the Father of Israyl, says: Reform your ways and your doings,
so that I may dwell with you in this place.
4 Do not trust in these
lying words, saying; This is the sanctuary of Yahweh! The
sanctuary of Yahweh! The sanctuary of Yahweh!
5 No! Only if
you truly reform your ways and your doings—if you truly
execute judgment between a man and his neighbor;
6 If you do
not oppress the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, and do not
shed innocent blood in this place, nor follow after hinder gods
(elohim) to your own harm,
7 Only then
will I dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your
fathers, forever and ever.
8 But behold, you trust in lying
words that are worthless!
9 Will you steal, murder, commit
adultery, vow falsely, burn incense to Baal; Lord,
follow hinder gods (elohim) you know nothing of,
10 And then come
and stand before Me in this House upon which My Name is called, and
say; We are saved! Saved to do all these
abominations?
11 Has this House,
which is called with My Name, become a den of thieves in your eyes?
Behold, I, even I, have seen this! says Yahweh.
12 But now go, if you
will, to My place; House, which is at
Abel, where I first set My Name, and see what was done to it because of
the wickedness of My people Israyl.
13 And now, because you have done
all these works, says Yahweh: and I spoke to you, rising up early and
speaking, but you did not hear; I called you, but you did not answer,
14 Therefore this will
be done to the House which is called with My Name—the
place in which you trust, the place I provided for you and
your fathers before you—just as was done at
Abel.
15 And you will be cast out of My
sight just as your brothers were cast out: the whole seed of Ephraim.
16 Therefore do not pray for this
people, nor lift up a cry nor prayer for them, nor make intercession to
Me; for I will not listen to you.
17 Do you not see what they do in
the cities of Yahdah and in the streets of Yerusalem?
18 How the
children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, while the women
knead dough to make cakes for the Queen of Heaven,
and how they pour out drink offerings to the hinder gods (elohim), so
they may act defiantly against Me?
19 Is it I Whom they act
defiantly against? says Yahweh: Or is it not
themselves, whom they harm to their own shame?
20 Therefore this is what Yahweh
says: Behold, they have acted defiantly against Me,
so justice will be poured out on this place—on man and on
beast, on the trees of the field and on the fruit of the
ground—and they will burn; and this fire
will not be quenched.
21 This is what Yahweh of hosts,
the Father of Israyl, says: Put your burnt offerings with your other
sacrifices, and eat meat.
22 For I did not speak to your
fathers, or command them about burnt offerings or sacrifices in the day
that I brought them out of the land of Egypt;
23 But this thing I commanded
them, saying: Obey My voice, and I will be your Father, and
you will be My people. And walk in all My ways that I have commanded
you, so it may be well with you!
24 But they did not
obey, nor pay any attention; instead, they walked in the counsels and
in the imagination of their evil heart, and
went backward and not forward.
25 Since the day that your
fathers came out of the land of Egypt until this very day,
I have even sent to you all My servants the prophets, daily rising up
early and sending them.
26 Yet they would not obey Me,
nor pay any attention; instead, they became stubborn; they did worse
than their fathers.
27 Therefore, you will speak all
these words to them, but they will not obey you. You will also call to
them, but they will not answer you.
28 So you will say to them; This is
a nation that does not obey the voice of Yahweh their
Father, nor accepts correction. Truth has perished—gone from
their mouths!
29 Cut off your hair, and cast it
away, and take up a lamentation on the high
places; for Yahweh has rejected, and has handed this generation over to
be sentenced.
30 For the children of Yahdah
have done evil in My sight, says Yahweh: They have set their
abominations; detestable gods (elohim), in the
House which is called with My Name, to pollute it!
31 And they have built the high
place of Tophet; Contempt, which is in
the Valley of Ben-Hinnom; Son of Hinnom, to burn
their sons and their daughters in the fire to Molech—which
I have never commanded, nor did such a thing ever
enter My mind!
32 Therefore, behold, the days
come, says Yahweh: when it will no longer be called Tophet, or the
Valley of Ben-Hinnom, but the Valley of Slaughter; for they will bury
in Tophet until there is no room.
33 And the carcasses of this
people will be meat for the fowls of the heaven, and for the beasts of
the earth; and none will frighten them away.
34 Then the voice of mirth and
the voice of gladness will be caused to cease in the cities
of Yahdah and from the streets of Yerusalem, the voice of the
bridegroom and the voice of the bride; for the land will be desolate.
Where Is The Place?
In the Prophecies before Yahchanan the Immerser, we find that the Work of Yahweh called The House of Yahweh would be destroyed. That is why Yahshua said that His disciples, whom He sent, would be killed.
Mattithyah
24:9—
Then they will hand you
over to be afflicted, and will kill you; and you will be hated above
all peoples for My Name's sake.
Yahshua
knew
that Yahweh's Work would be destroyed. So did the apostles. This is
exactly what the Apostle Shaul was inspired to write in:
Acts 20:29-31—
29 For I know this,
that after my departing grievous wolves will
enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
30 Also among your own selves
will men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after
themselves.
31 Therefore watch, and remember,
that for the period of three years I did not cease to warn everyone
night and day with tears.
For complete details about the prophecies which show how and when The only prophesied Work of Yahweh would be destroyed and then be re-established in these Last Days, we invite you to acquire our book: The Lost Faith of the Apostles and Prophets, History and Prophecy.
The prophecies of the destruction of Yahweh's Work were fulfilled; Yahweh's only Work on earth was lost from the pages of history, but there was yet another prophecy to be fulfilled. Yahweh inspired His prophets to write about the re-establishment of The House of Yahweh in these Last Days.
You do not need to guess about the place Yahweh has chosen for you to keep His Feasts. In the Holy Scriptures that He inspired to be written, Yahweh pinpoints this place for you, The House of Yahweh, Abilene, Texas.
Where
The House Of Yahweh
Will Be
Established
Yahweh shows that The House of Yahweh will begin as a small group in these Last Days. It will grow to become the largest, most powerful ruling Kingdom on the face of the earth, the government of Yahweh, but it does not start that way.
Yahweh started stirring His House to be established in 1967, laying the groundwork for His prophecies to be fulfilled. In 1967 I came to Abilene, Texas, and in 1967 Asher S. Kaufman began his work of establishing the site for the rebuilding of the Temple in Yerusalem. You may read of his work in the Biblical Archaeology Review, March/April 1983, Volume 9, Number 2, entitled: Where The Ancient Temple of Jerusalem Stood, Extant Foundation Stone for the Ark of the Covenant Identified.
Shortly afterward, my brother, Jacob Hawkins, moved to the land of Israyl after a great monetary blessing had been given to him. Ten people left the United States and began working on a kibbutz in the Negev. Eventually they moved to Nazareth. My brother, Jacob, continued to study, and he learned that the Name of the called out ones of Yahweh was The House of Yahweh.
In The Jerusalem Post, Friday, June 29, 1973, there was an article entitled: Unearthing The Land, which was a review by Dr. Avraham Biran, which discussed the past twenty-five years of archaeology in Israyl. In this review are these words: "At arad, excavated by Yohanan Aharoni, reference is made to a HOUSE OF YHWH...'' Above this, there was an illustrated drawing of the find.
At this point, my brother Jacob knew that this was the Name, and he wrote me about it. We both rejoiced greatly about this: the Name for Yahweh's only Work in these Last Days! Jacob returned to the United States in 1975, and moved to Odessa, Texas, where a Sanctuary of The House of Yahweh was first built, but The House of Yahweh was not yet established.
By using my brother Jacob many wonderful prophecies were fulfilled, through the Power and Will of Yahweh. However, The House of Yahweh was never established under the leadership of Jacob.
The establishment of The House of Yahweh actually started in 1980 in a mobile home. Remember, the first House of Yahweh was centered around a mobile Sanctuary, the Tabernacle in the wilderness. As the first mobile Sanctuary moved to a permanent location, so The House of Yahweh has gathered in these Last Days to a permanent location in Abilene, Texas.
It is the power of Yahweh causing His prophecies to come to pass. The Will of our Father Yahweh will be done and His House will become the greatest Government of all. We find the prophecy of the promotion of The House of Yahweh in Isayah and Micahyah.
Isayah
2:2-3—
2 It will come to pass in
the last days, that the mountain; promotion, of
The House of Yahweh will be established in the chief of the nations,
and will be raised above all congregations; and all nations will eventually
flow to it.
3 And many people will go and
say; Come, and let us go up to the mountain of Yahweh, to the House of
the Father of Yaaqob, and He will teach us of His ways, and we will
walk in His paths. Because out of Zion will come forth the Law, and the
word of Yahweh from Yerusalem.
Micahyah
4:1-2—
1 But in the last days
it will come to pass that the mountain; promotion,
of The House of Yahweh will be
established in the chief of the nations. It will be raised above all
congregations; and all peoples will eventually flow
to it.
2 And many nations will come, and
say; Come, and let us go up to the mountain; uplifting, of
Yahweh, and to the House of the Father of Yaaqob; and He will teach us
of His ways, and we will walk in His paths. Because the Law will come
forth from Zion, and the word of Yahweh from Yerusalem.
The word which has been translated mountain in Isayah 2:2 and Micahyah 4:1 is the Hebrew word har, word #2022 in Strong's Hebrew Dictionary, and means to loom up, promotion, be lifted up. The word mountain-har, when used figuratively, as it is in this case, means promotion, and it is Yahweh's House which will be lifted up or promoted.
The King James Version, in Isayah 2:2 and Micah 4:1, says that it will be established in the top of the mountains. This is not speaking of some mountain made of dirt and rock. If that were so, one dirt mountain would have to move to the top of another dirt mountain. This is speaking of nations and people.
Micahyah
6:1-3—
1 Hear now what Yahweh says! Rise
up, present your case before the mountains, and let the hills
hear your argument.
2 Hear Yahweh's contention, O
mountains and enduring foundations of the earth; for Yahweh has a
controversy with His people, and He
will contend with Israyl.
3 O My people, what have I done
to you? In what way have I wearied you? Bring your testimony
against Me!
Does Yahweh speak to dirt and rock? Of course not, He speaks to people. So when The King James Version renders Micahyah 4:1 and Isayah 2:2 as: "...in the top of the mountains...'' this can only be speaking of the top nation, the chief nation, of all nations. It is a fact that the United States of America has been the undisputed chief nation of all nations for years.
Yahweh does not stop in the Books of Micahyah and Isayah with this prophecy. Yahweh also shows His people, in His last Revelation to mankind, where He will establish His House and events which must shortly come to pass in these Last Days.
Revelation
7:1-4—
1 And after these things I saw
four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four
winds of the earth, so that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor
on the sea, nor on any tree.
2 And I saw another malak ascending
from the east, having the seal of the living Father; and he
cried with a loud voice to the four malakim, to whom it was given to
hurt the earth and the sea,
3 Saying: Hurt not the earth,
neither the sea, nor the trees, until we have sealed the servants of
our Father in their foreheads.
4 And I heard the number of those
who were sealed: And there were sealed 144,000 of
all the tribes of the children of Israyl.
Throughout the Book of Revelation, the Apostle Yahchanan is shown different visions of things which will come to pass in our own futures. In Revelation 7:1, Yahchanan sees four angels restraining the four winds of the earth. These four winds are symbolic of war, but not just any war, these angels are holding back the winds of a great war prophesied for these Last Days. This particular war is capable of wiping out all life from the face of the earth.
In Revelation 7:3, we find that this great war was held back until the very time that the servants of Yahweh are sealed in their foreheads.
For years there has been a misunderstanding about the seal of Yahweh. The seal of Yahweh is the truth of Yahweh.
II
Timothy
2:19—
Nevertheless, the foundation of
Yahweh stands sure, having this seal: Yahweh knows those who
are His, because: everyone who reverences the Name of Yahweh departs
from iniquity.
The servants with the seal of Yahweh are those who reverence Yahweh's Name, and depart from breaking any of Yahweh's Laws.
We then read in Revelation 7:2, that the malak or messenger of Yahweh is ascending from the east.
Revelation
14:6-7—
6 And I saw another malak fly in
the midst of heaven, having the everlasting message to preach
to those who dwell on the earth—to every nation, and tribe,
and language, and people—
7 Saying with a loud voice: Reverence
Yahweh, and give glory to Him; for the
hour of His judgment is come! And: Worship Him Who
made heaven and earth, and the sea and the fountains of waters!
This messenger brings the everlasting Message of Yahweh to be proclaimed, preached, to all nations in these Last Days. Revelation 17:2 tells us that this malak is ascending from the east. Remember that the central location in the Scriptures for Yahweh's House was always Abilene (Abelin, Abel, Ibillin), Israyl. For the malak to ascend from the east, he must go west, from Abilene, Israyl.
By comparing Revelation 7:2 with Micahyah 4:1-2 and Isayah 2:2-3, we know that the malak goes west, to the chief nation of all nations, in order to establish The House of Yahweh to preach and publish the everlasting Message of Yahweh for these Last Days. Through the preaching of Yahweh's only, prophesied, established Work, the servants of Yahweh can be called out, then guided and trained by His House for service in the Kingdom of Yahweh.
This malak also brings the seal of Yahweh from the east, to the west. He brings the Name of Yahweh and Yahshua, and the Laws of Yahweh to the west, so they would be preached.
Revelation
14:1—
And I looked, and behold, the
Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him 144,000, having His
Name and His Father's Name
written in their foreheads.
Hebrews
10:16—
This is the covenant that I will
renew with them after those days, says Yahweh: I will put My
Laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them.
The Name and the Laws of Yahweh are sealed in our minds. The seal of Yahweh, brought by the malak from the east, is taken directly west.
Look on any world globe, find the city of Abilene (Abel, Abelin Ibillin), Israyl, then go directly west, you will move directly to the city of Abilene, Texas.
In these prophecies, Yahweh shows that His Last Days' Work would be west of Abilene (Abel, Abelin, Ibillin), Israyl in the top (chief) nation of all nations. These prophecies not only show where Yahweh chooses for us to worship in these Last Days, these prophecies also give us the names of the two men whom Yahweh chose to establish His Last Days' Work.
In these Last Days the malak or messenger of Yahweh has been sent west from Abilene, Israyl to the chief nation of all nations, the United States of America, in order to establish The House of Yahweh in this nation. The established House of Yahweh, in turn, takes Yahweh's Message to all whom Yahweh calls out of this worldwide deception. Yahweh's Work has been established and is actively ushering in the new age of the Kingdom of Yahweh.
The House Of Yahweh
We must seek the only prophesied, established Work, for Yahweh has said that He will have no other work than that prophesied by His prophets of old. I know it is nice to think that Yahweh is with this or that group, but this thinking is simply not Scriptural.
Yahweh's true Work is written
within the pages of the Holy Scriptures, but it is written in a way
which is not easily understood by the masses of people who will not
study these same Holy Scriptures. Yet, with just a little study of the
original Hebrew words, anyone can come to a complete understanding of
the true Work of Yahweh in these Last Days. We
read in:
Amos 3:6-7, KJV—
6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the
city, and the people not be afraid? Shall there be evil in a city, and
the Lord hath not done it?
7 Surely the Lord God will do
nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.
Notice the last phrase of verse six, hath not done it. Then, if you have a King James Version with a Center Reference, you will see there is an error in translation. The Center Reference shows: "Or, shall not the Lord do somewhat?''
With this correction replaced in Amosyah 3:6, it is plain to see that the Prophet Amosyah was asking this question: "Will those other things be done, and shall not Yahweh do somewhat?''
Being corrected in this manner, you can see Amosyah is making a point with his question: He is saying: "Shall there be evil in a city, and shall not Yahweh also have a work in that city?''
In other words, the Prophet Amosyah is asking: "Shall Satan's preachers be working in a city__any city, and Yahweh not have a work there?''
The Hebrew word translated secret in Amosyah 3:7 King James Version has been translated assembly in Psalm 89:7, Psalm 111:1, Yeremyah 15:17, and Yechetzqyah 13:9. The word secret is word #5475 in Strong's Hebrew Dictionary, and means assembly.
The Prophet Amosyah was saying:
"Surely Yahweh will do nothing but He revealeth His Assembly unto His
servants the prophets."
Or: "Yahweh will have no work in
a city unless foretold first by His Prophets."
Or: "Yahweh will have no work at
all unless He first foretold of that assembly through His prophets
before Yahchanan."
The
answer to the question
Amosyah asked in chapter three and verse six, is found in:
Amos (Amosyah)
3:7—
Surely the Lord God will
do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.
However, there is another vital fact given about this prophesied assembly. This word translated secret, which we now know should have been translated assembly, comes from word #5475, shown previously. Word #5475 comes from word #3245, which means to set (lit. or fig.), to found, appoint, establish, found (-ation), ordain, set, sure.
Yahweh's prophesied assembly is to be set and founded, which means to be established.
As we read, Yahweh inspired two of His Prophets, Micahyah (4:1-2), and Isayah (2:2-3) to write that in the Last Days Yahweh would establish His House in the chief nation of all nations.
In effect, Yahweh inspired Amosyah to write that He would establish no assembly unless He prophesied of it first, through the prophets of old.
Amosyah
3:6-7—
6 Will a trumpet be blown in the
city, and the people not be afraid? Will iniquity fostered by
religious imposters be taking place in a city, and Yahweh
not also have a righteous work there?
7 Most assuredly Father Yahweh
will have no work, other than the work that He has prophesied in
advance by His servants the prophets.
It is sad, but many deceived preachers in the churches and assemblies use, or will use, these facts from Amosyah 3:6-7, to claim this proves that it is their assembly, or their name: assembly-assemblies, which is the true faith and the name of Yahweh's true Faith. However, the Apostle Shaul clearly identifies and names this assembly spoken of by the Prophet Amosyah. Shaul tells us in The Holy Name Version:
I
Timothy 3:15, HNV—
But if I tarry long, that thou
mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house
of Yahweh, which is the ASSEMBLY of the living (Father), the pillar and
ground of the truth.
The word which has been translated assembly in The Holy Name Version is translated church in the King James Version.
Assembly—church is word #1577, ekklesia, in Strong's Greek Dictionary, and literally means called out ones.
Word #1577 comes from two other Greek words: word #1537, ek which means out, often used in composition with the same general import; often of completion, and word #2564, kaleo which means bid, call forth.
The origin of the Called Out Ones: Yahweh's assembly which He calls out, is from Yahweh Himself, Who speaks of The House of Yahweh through His prophets of old. The proper translation is found in The Book Of Yahweh:
I
Timothy
3:15—
But if I am delayed, I write so
that you may know the right and proper way to conduct yourself in THE
HOUSE OF YAHWEH, who are the called out ones of the living Father, the
pillar and ground of the truth.
Shaul clearly identifies The House of Yahweh as the assembly, the Called Out Ones described by Amosyah, Micahyah and Isayah, that would be established in the Last Days, which has been spoken of by the prophets of old.
