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
