Hi:
> Christ was not born on Christmas day but Christ was born around
> September 1.
I think Jesus was born on Sept. 4, 5 BC. That was when the sign of Rev. 12
was in the sky. The Moon was under Virgo's feet on the Feast of Trumpets.
This year, that sign will be in the sky Sept. 27.

That statement was true on the day Jesus said it. It is no longer true
today, because Jesus took the Old Testament saints to Heaven on Firstfruits,
April 9, 30 AD.
Joh_20:17 says, "Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet
ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend
unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God."
Eph_4:8 says, "Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led
captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men."

Marilyn: The fall feast Has been fulfilled.
Hannukah: Hannukah is not mentioned in the Law of God however the concept of
Hannukah was written in the Law of God through Moses but I have never found
where it was honored. Hannukah is an eight day festival that is
honored with lights. Hannukah means dedication and the LORD has always
wanted His people to be dedicated to Him, so they could hear His voice. Any
person that is totally dedicated to the LORD will hear His voice and
receive light of the truth from Him, that is to say Revelation knowledge.
Hannukah means to be dedicated to the LORD.
Therefore Hannukah was not considered a festival of the LORD until the
Maccabean revolt against the Seleucid Empire in the second century BCE, and
John 10:22 called it the Feast of Dedication. Hannukah means
to be devoted or to be dedicated with sincerity and truth. Hannukah is
usually celebrated in the month of December with hanging of lights. The
Hannukah lights are the same as Christmas lights. For this reason
Hannukah is sometimes called the festival of lights. Hannukah represents
light in which the people of God must be dedicated to the LORD before they
can receive the Light. Light represents knowledge of truth
from the Father in which is His Word. Hannukah is celebrated almost like
Christmas, they give gifts and play games, there is one major difference
Hannukah do not have a jolly old man giving gifts to everyone in
the world.
I personally think Hannukah is celebrated wrong. Christians should NOT
even celebrate Christmas; according to Jeremiah 10:2-5. Christ was not
born on Christmas day but Christ was born around September 1.
We are supposed to be the temple of God filled with the Holy Spirit totally
dedicated to the LORD receiving light of truth from Him.
Many people around the world try to honor Hannukah but most honors it
through fun and games, this should not be. How can we build the temple of
God and dedicate it through fun and games? The LORD was sincerely
dedicated to His people when He sent Christ to the cross as the sacrificial
Lamb. So we should be dedicated to the LORD with sincerity seeking truth.
Christ fulfilled the Feast of Dedication in which represents light, Christ
is the light of the world.
The LORD gave seven feasts, He gave eight feasts if you count Hannukah, and
we know Christ fulfilled the four spring feast. However what about the
other three feasts that comes in the fall of the year did Christ fulfill
them?
Many people including Jewish people say the fall feast have not been
fulfilled. However I challenge those who say the fall feast has not been
fulfilled to give proof.
The first Messianic church that I ever went to, after I was there three days
the LORD spoke to me saying: stay where I have planted you and learn My
feast. Therefore I was there learning about the feast and how to conduct
them
for almost ten years. The LORD wanted me understand what the feast
represented. Therefore as I entered in through the physical, the LORD had
me by my hand and brought me out through the Spirit. The feast of the LORD
was
written in the Law, it was the spoken Word of God. Christ came in and
became the LIVING Word of the LORD and dwelled in a temporary booth, that is
to say a flesh and blood body. Who died on the cross and resurrected to
life for evermore, He has risen and He is alive. The spoken Word became
flesh and dwelled among us.
Yahshua said in John 6:54 whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has
eternal life and I will raise him up at the last day. What many people do
not realize is that: every Word that is written in the Bible points
to the flesh and blood body of our savior, because it was the spoken Word of
God that became flesh and dwelled among us.
From the fall of man, it was the Word of God that brought redemption to all
who would believe, there has NEVER been any other savior. From the
foundation of the world the Word of God was the savior there were no other.
The world needed redemption from darkness in Genesis 1:3 and the LORD sent
His Word to redeem the world out of darkness, when the LORD said LET THERE
BE LIGHT. Genesis 1:3 God redeemed the earth out of
darkness and today the earth is returning to the darkness. Before Christ
return there will be gross darkness upon the earth and no one will be able
to work.
The church is run by the government rulings that say you cannot preach this
or that so the church does what the government says. Therefore the
government is leading mankind back into darkness and the churches are
blinded to
the fact, and there will come a day when the darkness overtakes the world
and no one will be able to work.
A newborn babe stands in darkness therefore he must enter in through the
flesh and partake of the Word of God before the newborn begin to receive
light. Spiritually speaking the newborn must eat the Word of God from
Genesis
– Revelation it is the fleshly body of Christ.
As the newborn ages the deeper his understanding should become, and one day
he looks into heaven and sees Christ seated at the right hand of God. This
is the five levels of depth the LORD have shown me
from Ezekiel 47.
The newborn baby in Christ is like an empty tomb he places the Word in the
empty tomb and at right time the Father resurrects the Word to life by
Revelation knowledge. The Revelations knowledge of truth is like seeing the
resurrected body of our LORD and savior.
Unleavened bread represents Christ without sin.
Passover represents the death of the first born; Christ was the first born
of God and became our Passover Lamb. For I will pass through the land of
Egypt on that night, and will strike all the firstborn in the land
of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will
execute judgment: I am the Lord.
13Now the blood shall be a sign for you on the houses where you are. And
when I see the blood, I will pass over you; and the plague shall not be on
you to destroy you when I strike the land of Egypt.
We must realize our firstborn was the old sin nature and through Christ God
destroyed the old sin nature. So when the LORD saw the blood of Christ the
death angel passed over the house and went out struck the firstborn.
The LORD passed over the house that had applied the blood to doorpost of
their heart and destroyed their sin nature. It is no longer we that live
but He that lives in us, because we were redeemed from the curse of the
flesh.
Our flesh is driven by five laws, touch, taste, smell, sight and sound these
laws leads to death, and Christ redeemed us from that curse.
First Fruits means first time ever, Christ was the first resurrected from
the dead who ascended up to the Father. Some believe Enoch and Elijah were
taken to heaven, but Christ said NO ONE had gone to heaven,
John 3:13. Christ said no man has ascended into heaven except He who came
down from heaven and that was the Son of Man. Do we believe what Christ
said or do we believe what men say?
Pentecost represents the Law came by the Spirit to Moses, the Holy Spirit
brought Law when He came to His temple in Acts 2.
Feast of Trumpets means to sound an alarm, which points to the seven Angels
sounding their trumpets in Revelation.
Day of Atonement represents forgiveness, and God forgave us of our sin
through the blood of Christ.
If Christ atoned for us with His blood, this seems to imply the fulfillment
of the Day of Atonement.
Feast of Tabernacles represents is a place of dwelling or a temporary booth.
Christ came to tabernacle in a flesh and blood body, that is to say a
temporary booth, fulfilling tabernacles. The human body is a temporary
dwelling place, man is appointed to die once and then the judgment. It is
what is in the heart that counts for eternity with Christ or with Satan.
What is born of the Spirit is Spirit, what is born of the flesh is flesh.
It is my belief that every one of the feast except the feast of trumpets was
fulfilled through Christ. The last trumpet has not sounded because Christ
has not returned for His bride.
Many people do not accept this teaching; I do not ask them to believe I ask
only consideration. Therefore it is a challenge for them to prove the
Spirit is wrong. It is my belief whatsoever the Spirit whispers in ones
ear
He will whisper in the same in another person’s ear. Many people take the
written Word and make it say anything they want it to say.
If they are not hearing what the Spirit says they are not following Christ,
Christ said I speak what My Father says, and I do what I see My Father do.
Christ spoke only what the Father said, in other words Christ
received Revelation knowledge from the Father and He repeated the Revelation
knowledge in the ears of those who followed Him. If Christ spoke only what
the Father said and did what He saw the Father do,
then maybe we should do the same, because I think we are supposed to follow
the examples that Christ set.
I challenge people to prove the fall feast has not yet been fulfilled.
Christ was born sometime around the first day of the Feast of Tabernacles,
meaning He came to tabernacle with us. Fulfilling the Feast of Tabernacles,
He came and dwelled in a temporary booth that is to say a tabernacle of
flesh.
Thirty years after the birth of Christ John baptized Christ in the Jordan
River.
After Christ was baptized He was driven by the Spirit of God into the
wilderness to be tempted and tested by Satan for forty days. After Christ
was tempted and tested by Satan, He began to preach repent for
the kingdom of heaven is at hand, Matthew 4:17. The kingdom of God came
when the Day of Pentecost was fulfilled.
Christ was walking by the Sea of Galilee and called Peter and Andrew to
follow Him and He would teach them to be fishers of men, Matthew 4:18-19. As
Christ walked on and He saw James and John and Christ
called them to follow Him. Christ called twelve Apostles to follow Him.
After Chris called His twelve Apostles, brings us to the Sermon on the
Mount, it is my belief the Sermon on the Mount was taught during the eight
days of Hannukah.
Christ gave light or that is to say He gave understanding of what the LORD
would do for them when they love the LORD with their whole heart soul and
mind. Christ gave understanding how to love their neighbor as their
selves. He expounded upon the Law of God giving them a deeper level of
understanding. Christ was totally dedicated to the Father with sincerity of
truth, Christ did not play a game with those He was teaching, and the only
gift He offered was the understanding of the Law. Understanding the Law
brings us to Christ and He is the light of the world fulfilling the festival
of lights, Feast of Dedication.
Passover, Unleavened Bread, First Fruits and Pentecost were fulfilled
through Christ.
Feast of Trumpets (Yom Teruah/Rosh HaShanah) The last trumpet has not
sounded because He has not returned for His church.
Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) The Day of Atonement was fulfilled because the
blood of Christ was the Atonement, His blood fulfilled Yom Kippur, in which
was the New Covenant.
Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot) the Feast of Tabernacles was fulfilled because
Christ was born during the Feast of Tabernacles. Christ became our Sabbath
rest, He became our feast, He is our light. We can turn all our
troubles and worries over to Christ seven days a week and rest from them in
Christ. We can feast with Him seven days a week receiving light from Him.
Matthew 7:24-27, Christ spoke of building two temples one in which is built
upon the rock. The other is built upon the sand. Sand is a ground covering
meaning the surface. Bedrock is beneath the surface
the surface must be removed so the foundation can be laid on the bedrock.
Most people want to build their temples upon the sand that is to say the
surface. They look upon the surface of the written Word and see the feast,
the LORD gave to Israel and they build their temples upon the things that
are written. It is my belief they should be building upon Revelation
knowledge from the Father, it will be solid rock. Christ said upon this
rock I will build My church. Peter received Revelation from the Father
that
Yahshua was the son of God and the Messiah, that Revelation from the Father
was solid rock in which Christ is building His church.
The written Word is a covering that hides much deeper levels of
understanding.
The deeper levels of understanding MUST come by the Spirit of God, because
the Spirit searches all things including the deep things of God,
1Corinthians 2:10..
