 JH> (Continued from previous message)
 JH> In the United States Department of Agriculture book, "A Walk Through 
 JH> Time," we find:
 JH> "During Saxon times, simple sundial forms place above doorways
 JH> were used to identify "midday..."  This way the early Saxons - our
 JH> Israelite ancestors - knew when to start their day.  According to
 JH> the archaeologists, the Umbri of Italy are the direct
 JH> descendants  of the Israelites of Scripture.  We found in the
 JH> Encyclopedia of  English Law, under the title "day," the
 JH> following:  "...the Umbri in Italy began [the day] at midday...the
 JH> Egyptians and Romans at midnight..."
 Yep, understood, which, of course, are all man's doctrines and 
 calculations, correct?
 JH> In the United States Constitution you will find under Article XX:
 JH> "Section 1.  The terms of the President and Vise President shall 
 JH> end at "noon" on the 20th day of January, and the terms of 
 JH> Senators and Representatives at noon on the 3rd of January..."
 JH> "Section 2.  The Congress shall assemble at least once in every
 JH> year, and such meetings shall begin at NOON..."
 Yep, same as above, right?
 JH> After a thorough search of the Holy Scriptures and then checking 
 JH> secular history to see what actually took place, I have concluded that
 JH> the "weekly sabbath" of Scripture starts at 12 o'clock noon at the end
 JH> of the sixth day and continues until 12 o'clock noon at the end of the
 JH> seventh day.
 OK, but please check out the Biblical calculations in the final
 message, ok?
 JH> This changing of times is nothing but fulfillment of the prophecy of 
 JH> Daniel 7:25:
 And we have no idea of what those changes will consist of, since
 we have not been told in Scripture, correct?
 JH> "...he [the fourth beast] shall wear out the saints of the Most 
 JH> High, and think to change times and laws..."
 Yep, and no doubt he will, but as already said, we have
 absolutely no clue as to what those changes will be, now do we?
 JH> Clarence, I know that it is hard to let go of something that has been 
 JH> such a normal part of our understanding for so long.  
 
 Brother Jerry, you have sure got that right, but what else can
 we expect, when the blind are leading the blind, correct?  :'(
 JH> And I know that 
 JH> when we begin to read evidences contrary to those "normal" beliefs, we
 JH> tend to shut down our minds, not wanting to hear these things that 
 JH> throw us for a loop, so to speak.  
 
 Yep, you have got that right also, for rather than studying and
 reasoning together, they just turn up their nose and walk off in
 a huff, just like their blind teachers knew it all and no one
 could possibly change it, when the truth is, that the truth has
 always been the truth and shall always be the truth and
 absolutely no man's doctrine or commandment can ever change it,
 correct?  And our only responsibility is to seek out the truth
 and when it is found, it will indeed set us free, just as He
 said that it would/will, correct?
 JH> But I challenge you to re-read all the posts that I submitted to you.  
 
 Oh yes, my post to you yesterday listed many of the posts that
 have been saved to file from you as they will be a great help in
 my writing of my own commentary of The Word!  :)
 JH> Then, using the definitions above,
 JH> take a new look at Passover, specifically as YaHshua kept it.  
 
 Most certainly, however, the definitions of men's doctrines
 above would not be of any help understanding The Scriptures, as
 already pointed out above, for they are two completely different
 sets of calculations, and in order to understand The Scriptures,
 we must, of necessity, use the Bible's calculations, otherwise
 we would have nothing but confusion, and He is not the author of
 confusion, now is He?
 JH> Remember, Passover has been met by our MessYaH, but is not totally 
 JH> fulfilled yet (Luke 22:16).  You will find that the 3 days and 3
 JH> nights  will work out perfectly, that YaHshua was to spend in the heart
 JH> of the  earth.
 Exactly, and three FULL days and three FULL nights were indeed
 spent in the tomb by Yahshua, which is in PERFECT harmony with
 The Scriptures, which allowed Him to rise just minutes prior to
