GOD’S TIME AND CALENDAR VS THE ROMAN CALENDAR
This is the final posting on the importance of understanding God’s
time and calendar
Here in a nutshell is what I am seeing about
times and laws, beginning with Daniel 7.25—it crystalized in my mind and it is
quite interesting.
If God’s time and calendar
are the time of the entire Bible we have to ask what calendar are we observing?
We are on the Gregorian calendar—most of the world—a “Roman” calendar. God’s time is
evening/morning (Gen 1). That is sunset to sunset equals a 24 hour day. The “Roman” day begins at midnight—a six
hour difference.
If there are only 4
kingdoms in Dan 2 and Dan 7 and we agree through history that Rome is the 4th Kingdom—what
time and calendar are we currently observing? Roman-Gregorian!
If in 1 John 2.18-19 there
is a “spirit of anti-Christ” in the world and prophecy is dual then Dan 7.25 is
talking about the last times (as in 1 John 2)--in the context of
the tribulation also.
If the Bible is written in
God’s time and calendar—and the time, day, and calendar we observe is Roman—what times and laws are
being changed by the spirit of Antichrist in the world (Dan 7.25)?
The times are God’s
appointed times (“Moedim” in Hebrew)—the
feasts (“Miqra” or “dress rehearsals) and the laws are (Torah). These have been,
and are being changed---gay marriage, abortion, etc. are all in opposition to
Biblical law. This includes Sunday replacing the Sabbath law.
If this is fact, then in
Luke 21.24 the times of the Gentiles being fulfilled and Jerusalem being
trodden down is being accomplished by the 4th kingdom! Gentiles represent “Rome” in our current time. The
Roman Church has
many laws that are not Biblical. Most of the world operates on the Roman calendar—the calendar of the 4th
Kingdom in Daniel.
The ramifications of all this are in the Book of Revelation. We are living in the
time of the 4th kingdom and times and laws of that kingdom are observed by “Romanized” Gentiles. This Roman system of worship extends to
the Protestant churches whom have also abandoned the times and seasons of the
Lord--while diminishing the Torah. (The feasts of the Lord are listed in
Leviticus 23).
Therefore the current church is,
for argument sake, a pagan shadow of what it should be---as the Jews turned
away from Christ--and Gentiles turned away from Hebraic foundations (Torah)—we arguably
have the seeding for an apostate church rising.
But—Yahweh has and is still
honoring the name of Yeshua through this church through healings
and salvation, etc. In fact, for two thousand years the “Christian” church has
ignored her Hebraic roots. That is now beginning to change as many Christians are
digging deeper into the scriptures. God is restoring ancient truths as we approach the end of this current age. Restoring - there is nothing new--we are returning to our true roots. This is not new revelation, merely a restoration of truth.
Today we are seeing a return
to the Hebraic foundations. God’s people are discovering the ancient
ways—Hebraic roots—while the apostate church turns further and further towards
human secularism. Syncretism is the word of our time—mixing in pagan rites with
Yahweh’s Torah. This is an abomination to Yahweh. Ref: The Book of Zephaniah as an example.
A day is coming when we will be persecuted for our Hebraic beliefs—and the line
in the sand between apostate and true will become clear. The “times of the
Gentiles” will end and the Messiah will return and restore the Kingdom.
This is the end time message.
As we grow in Hebraic foundations and understanding, the apostate church
reaches out to all other religions to consolidate under the umbrella of this “Roman system.” Syncretism--mixing in
pagan rites with Yahweh’s Torah is taking over the apostate church. This is an
abomination to Yahweh. Ref: The Book of
Zephaniah as an example and the Vatican’s drive to unite all religions under
one umbrella.
It is all hidden in plain sight—Understanding
“what time and calendar” the Bible is on and which time the world is on reveals
many end time mysteries—such as Mystery Babylon.
Yeshua said he would return as a thief in the night. The apostle Paul said that we who understand the calendar should not be
taken by surprise (1 Thess 5.1-5).
When Yahshua returns the restoration of all things as the Apostles questioned in Acts
1.6 will begin. The generation that goes through the tribulation will
understand their situation and the season of His return because they understand
the times, calendar, and feasts.
Coming events will be happening according to God’s
time and calendar. No man knows the DAY, but we will understand the season and
YHVH will guide His people according to His appointed times. There will be a measure
of protection and peace for His followers during this stressful time because of
their knowledge of His TIME.
