I have waited years before writing this message, and I am only writing it now,
because I believe that YHVH has revealed His Truth to me. Therefore, I feel
obligated to share this Revelation with you.
Believe me, I am fully aware of all the various methods for determining "The
Beginning of Months;" and I have participated in a number of the "Aviv
Barley" versus "The Equinox" discussions. Additionally, there is the added
factors of just exactly when does a "New Moon" begin; is it by calculation or
crescent, waxing crescent or waning crescent, and if by crescent then is it our
local crescent or the crescent in Jerusalem? And if that didn't complicate things
enough, then there is even more chaos and confusion as to whether or not a
"New Moon" is bright with light or dark? Now you and I know that YHVH is
not the author of confusion ( 1 Corinthians 14:33 ), and YHVH would not put
upon His "Chosen Few" anything that would prevent them from proper
observation of His Sabbaths (weekly or Annual). So then, just what is it that I
claim YHVH has revealed to me that could possibly make the pieces of the
puzzle fit together. Well first of all, let me categorically state that there is only
one verse in Scripture (Tanakh - Older Testament), and no verses in the
Apostolic writings (controversial New Testament translations) that positively
state(s) that YHVH has provided His "Chosen" with any other method than
astronomical observation (this does not mean astrology!). As a matter of fact this
was of such importance that YHVH established these as signs for days, weeks,
seasons, and years even before He created the first intelligent human beings
(Adam and Eve).
Genesis 1:14
And God said, Let there be lights (Sun, Moon, Stars, Comets) in the
firmament of the heaven to divide the day (Light) from the night
(Dark); and let them be for signs (Prophetic), and for seasons
(Beginning of Months or Spring), and for days, and years:
Genesis 1:9-13
9 And Elohim (YHVH) said, Let the waters under the heaven be
gathered together to one place, and let the dry land appear: and it
was so.
10 And Elohim (YHVH) called the dry land Earth; and the
gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and Elohim
(YHVH) saw that it was good.
11 And Elohim (YHVH) said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the
herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind,
whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.
12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after
his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after
his kind: and Elohim (YHVH) saw that it was good.
13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.
So, what method(s) has YHVH seen fit to teach His "Chosen," so that we, "The
Obedient," (in Spirit) can unravel the mysteries and remove the cloaks of chaos
placed on YHVH's Sabbaths? Actually the method is so simple that it makes me
sad that it took so long to discover; but I need to draw a parallel between the
phases of the Moon and the phases of a twenty-four hour day in order to reveal
it. Remember we must use the presence of Light and the absence of Light
(Darkness) of the sky (Sun, Moon, Stars) as our guide. But first let me state that
the reason YHVH uses "The Presence of Light" and "The Absence of Light"
(darkness) is so that His "Chosen" can clearly understand the importance of our
Spiritual Marriage Vows (Love and Obedience to His Commandments), and also,
to discern the "Logos" (Plan of Salvation) through His Sabbaths. Additionally,
each person that has ever been born must come to the knowledge of Good
(Light) and evil (darkness). We have no choice except to choose whether we
will learn from the mistakes of others and-or from our own mistakes.
Note: "Logos" actually does mean "Plan," and
The Messiah is-was a very important aspect of
YHVH's "Plan of Salvation" for His "Chosen," but
Messiah is not the only important aspect of YHVH's
"Plan of Salvation."
Genesis 3:4-5
4 And the serpent said to the woman, you shall not surely die:
5 For YHVH does know that in the day you eat there, then your
eyes shall be opened, and you shall be likened to immortals,
knowing good (Light) and evil (Darkness).
Yes, to choose between Light and Darkness is of such prime importance, that
every living thing (plant and animal) ever established on Earth has had to adapt
to this environment. But the Light and Darkness in our lives has been such a
major part of our environment that we tend to ignore it, sort of blank it out. Too
bad, as YHVH uses "The Nature of Things" to teach Truth and to reveal
Himself to us.
Romans 1:20
20 For the invisible things of Him from the foundation (creation)
of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that
are made (Created), even His eternal power and Divinity; so
that they are without excuse:
Having said all of that, it is now time to draw the parallels between the phases
of the 24 hour day and the phases of the Moon.
When Sunlight is disappearing from the When Sunlight is disappearing from the
surface of the Earth. surface of the Moon.
When Sunlight no longer falls upon a When Sunlight no longer falls upon the
specific surface of the Earth. The New visible surface of the Moon. The New
Day is fully in force. Month is fully in force.
So there you have it, the undeniable evidence of the YHVH created relationship
between the Sun, Earth and Moon. Does anybody believe that this relationship
is by mere coincidence? And Yes, the parallel relationship does continue for the
approximately 24 hour day and the approximately 29 days, 12 hours, 44
minutes, and 28 seconds month; only now the Light is growing (waxing) during
the other half of the cycle, and appears on the opposite side of both the Moon
and the Earth.
When darkness is almost gone from the When darkness is disappearing from the
surface of the Earth. surface of the Moon.
Does anybody think that the symbolism between Light and darkness is merely
by chance? Does anybody think that this same "Light & Dark" relationship
between Weekly Sabbaths, The Beginning of Days, Annual Sabbaths, and The
Beginning of Months is merely coincidence? YHVH Forbid ! It was YHVH
alone that set the Sun, Moon, and Stars in the heavens, and No One Else; And
YHVH never does anything in a haphazard manner; Everything that can be
"Planned in Advance" or "Predestined to Exist" was established from "The
Foundations of The Earth" (including Messiah). Absolutely nothing was left to
chance.
Philippians 2:15
That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of YHVH,
without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation,
among whom ye shine as lights in the world (of darkness);
Romans 13:12
The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off
the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light.
Ephesians 5:8
For ye were sometimes darkness, but now you are light in the
Lord: walk as children of light:
1 Corinthians 13:12
For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face (in
Light): now I know in part (shadows); but then shall I know even
as also I am known (in Light).
Does anyone recall barley being grown by the ancient Israelites while they
wandered in the wilderness for 40 years? If they had bread, then why did they
need manna? And yet, Passover and Unleavened Bread were still celebrated
without the understanding of the barley symbolism then, as it was during the 70
years of captivity in Babylon, and as it has, also, been for the last 2,000 years.
This was because barley was reserved by YHVH to only represent Messiah to
those with Spiritual Ears to Hear and Eyes to See. Perhaps they were able to
gather enough wild barley in those days for ceremonial purposes, but there is
no mention for the priests to wait on the barley to ripen nor is the variety of
barley now known.
Acts 7:22
22 And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians,
and was mighty in words and in deeds.
But for me, it just makes Spiritual sense that YHVH would not begin His
Sacred Calendar Year as long as darkness ruled the day. "The Beginning of
Months" (Sacred Year) should not take place as long as darkness rules (greater
than or equal to 50% of ) the 24 hour daytime anymore than YHVH's
"Appointed Feast Days" (symbolizing Deliverance) should take place during
the darkness of a New Moon. The symbolism would be totally wrong, and
make YHVH's Instructions inconsistent and of no avail. YHVH is totally
without variance in matters of Light and Dark. Therefore, The Vernal or
Spring Equinox (as measured by the light reaching the Earth versus other
methods) should always be used to mark the point when darkness no longer
rules the day. The Vernal Equinox does not however directly determine "The
Beginning of Months," only that point in time after which we can choose the
first 24 hour day that begins (prior to Twilight) with a completely Dark New
Moon; It is not enough that a fully Dark New Moon occurs after the New Day
begins (after Sunset & Twilight), the fully Dark New Moon must be fully Dark
for the entire 24 hour period from evening to evening. This then will be the
First Day of The Sacred New Year or "The Beginning of Months."
James 1:17
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes
down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness,
neither shadow of turning.
(Hebrews 4:12)
