Hello,
John and Doves,
Actually, the secular name for Tishri 1 is, "Rosh
Hashanah" [Head of the Year].
The
name that appears in Leviticus 23, where the LORD tells Moshe what to tell the
people
regarding the feasts of the LORD, Tishri 1 is referred
to as, "Yom Teruah" [Day of Blowing].
"Yom
Teruah," then, is the correct name for the Feast of
Trumpets.
If the
Rapture happens to occur at the inauguration of the spiritual new year, Nisan 1,
then it stands
to
reason that Jesus Christ, the True King of the Jews and KING OF KINGS would come
to
the
Earth on a civil New Year, Yom Teruah, the Feast of
Trumpets.
In
HaShem,

"To BG Ellis:
Rosh Hashanah at Nisan 1st?!"
Dear BG Ellis and Doves
in respect to all
your great summaries, I' like to throw in some thoughts:
>From which
scripture do you derive that Nisan should be celebrated as
the Sacred Rosh
Hashanah?
Nisan is the 1st month of the jewish calendar.
Tishri is
the 7th month of the jewish calendar.
As far as I understand scripture,
Tishri is the month to start
counting the next year. There is nothing wrong
with that. Simply
because Nisan is the first month, it does not make it the
month where
the new year count starts. Simple as that.
There is no
Sacred or Secular Rosh Hashanah. There is only the Rosh
Hashanah at Tishri
and that's it.
I find it a bit confusing that everybody ties to the
Hillel II
calendar if it comes to tetrads falling on specific feast days,
but if
it comes to justify things that don't line up with the Hillel
II
calendar, it is said to possibly be 1-2 months off, or 1-2 days
off
due to naked eye spotting of the moon.
Whoever makes a list of
facts backing up a timeline/daycounts, should
either use the Hillel II
calendar and strictly stick to it or
otherwise not use it at all. A mix is
simply not credible. Anybody
else thinking the same?
Love, YBIC,
Josua
