NEW STUDY: Did The Heavenly Father Come To Dwell In The Flesh?
NEW STUDY: Most Christians Are A Stumbling Block To Jews Believing In Messiah
If the studies help you, please consider supporting the ministry. Click here for more info.
I created a new study called The True Gospel Story Decoded, which shows how Messiah is fulfilling His Father’s seven Holy Feast Days to redeem the set-apart saints. Here’s a link to the PDF of the study.
Messiah proclaimed that even the very elect could be deceived.
“For false messiahs and false prophets shall arise, and they shall show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones” Matthew 24:24
Here are Messiah’s sobering words to people who thought that they were His:
“Many shall say to Me in that day, ‘Master, Master, have we not prophesied in Your Name, and cast out demons in Your Name, and done many mighty works in Your Name?’ “And then I shall declare to them, ‘I never knew you, depart from Me, you who work lawlessness!’ Matthew 7:22-23
The enemy has caused Christians to assign the falling away of 2 Thessalonians 2 to the end times, but the apostasy that the Apostle Paul was referring to was fulfilled in the 4th century, and it still affects Christians today.
There is no sugar-coating to this message. It is a direct message to the end times church, because there’s not much time left, for darkness is on the horizon.
I pray that you will take the message seriously, and pray to the Spirit for discernment, for the end is near, and we all need to make sure that we have nothing to do with the teachings of the Babylonian harlot church of Rome.
For Messiah warned His church in Revelation 18:4: Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
The ‘her’ that Messiah is referring to is the harlot Roman Catholic Church, which was clearly described in Revelation 17.
“And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.“
The cardinals and bishops wear scarlet and purple.
The apostate church is decked with gold, precious stones, and pearls; which we can clearly see in how the Pope and St. Peter’s Basilica are adorned.
The apostate church uses a golden cup in their Eucharist ceremony, that is full of abominations of false god worship.
She pretends to be part of the true church, but her practices and symbols show that her worship is based on the Babylonian Mystery Religion; thus the name, Mystery, Babylon the Great.
The Harlot Roman Catholic Church study provides more proof.
You may be thinking that this doesn’t apply to you because you are a Protestant, not a Catholic; but this page will show you that much of what Protestants believe is based on teachings from Rome, not Scripture.
Protestant Churches are the daughters of the harlot, as many of their teachings came from Rome, not Scripture.
Today the Roman Catholic Church, the Orthodox Church and Protestant Churches, express their faith in what is called The Nicene Creed, which means that they are following the teaching of Rome, not Scripture.
At the first council at Nicaea in 325 A.D, Roman Emperor Constantine began to create the Roman religion of ‘Christianity’, based on their pagan worship rituals, that ultimately are based on the Babylonian Mystery religion.
Below is a brief explanation of the changes that Emperor Constantine and the Bishops of Rome made, which oppose the Scriptures.
They serve to steal glory and honor away from the Father, and they cause the followers of the Messiah to be out of covenant with Him.
You will see how today’s Christian churches are still following these changes today, and so they are steeped in the Babylonian religion without knowing it.
Let me set the stage first, so that you can understand why Satan caused Emperor Constantine to create a religion that is contrary to the Scriptures. Then you will see how this all affects Christians even today.
Satan used the pagan Roman Empire to try to wipe out the Early Church, killing 10 million saints; but Messiah’s church grew even faster.
The Roman Empire was declining as a result of civil wars, financial strain, famine and pestilence; so Satan changed his strategy to seek to destroy Messiah’s saints from within.
Satan caused Roman Emperor Constantine to act as a hero, ending the persecutions against the saints; and then had him create the Roman religion of Christianity, based on the Roman’s worship of the pagan gods.
Constantine then forced the saints to either compromise, apostatize, from their Scriptural beliefs; or be killed; and many fell away from the true faith, to be exalted in Rome.
Constantine created the pagan based holiday of Easter, which is based on the fertility goddess, Ishtar.
This is why fertility symbols such as rabbits and eggs are part of it. The 40 days of lent symbolized the life of Tammuz the Babylonians sun god, who died at age 40. He was killed by a wild boar, which is why ham is a traditional food on Easter, to remember Tammuz.
I’m sure that your observance of Easter doesn’t include worship any pagan gods; but the Scriptures warn us:
“Do not do so to YHUH your Elohim, for every abomination which YHUH hates they have done to their mighty ones” Deuteronomy 12:31
Scripture proclaims that Messiah died on the Feast of Passover, He was in the grave on the Feast of Unleavened Bread (symbolizing His sinlessness), and He rose again on the Feast of First Fruits. Those Holy Feast Days are what the saints should be observing, not Easter.
Let’s be clear about something. These are not just Jewish feasts. These are the Father’s Holy Feast Days, which Messiah is still in the process of fulfilling, to redeem His set-apart people. He is not done, as He has not fulfilled the three fall Feast Days yet, which represent His return for His bride.
Constantine created the pagan based holiday of Christmas, which is based on the birth of the pagan Babylonian sun god Tammuz.
Saturnalia is a pagan holiday that was celebrated on 12/25, way before Messiah was born. Constantine integrated Saturnalia into his new holiday called Christmas, to appease the Romans, and to draw all religions under the authority of Rome.
12/25 is the absolute worst day of the year to select to celebrate Messiah’s birth. Messiah was conceived on Hanukkah (in early December), as He is the light of the world. Nine months later He was born on the Feast of Tabernacles, as He came to dwell among us.
The fall Feast Days represent Messiah’s return (Feast of Trumpets), His judgment (Feast of Atonement) and His marriage to His bride (Feast of Tabernacles).
I understand that Christians are not worshiping pagan gods on Christmas, but the bigger point that I would make is about what they are not doing.
They are not observing their Father’s seven Holy Feast Days, which Messiah is fulfilling for their redemption. Every follower of Messiah should know and celebrate these Feast Days, for they give the proper context of His return.
Emperor Constantine wrote “… it appeared an unworthy thing that in the celebration of this most holy feast we should follow the practice of the Jews, who have impiously defiled their hands with enormous sin, and are, therefore, deservedly afflicted with blindness of soul. … Let us then have nothing in common with the detestable Jewish crowd; for we have received from our Saviour a different way.” (Eusebius’ Life of Constantine, Book 3 chapter 18)
In other words, he condemned the Holy Feast Days by saying that they were ‘Jewish.’ What he didn’t say is that the Messiah, from the tribe of Judah, is the one who is fulfilling the Feast Days.
Christians do the same thing today, they delegate them as Jewish feasts, and say that they are to be dismissed. But that stance is contrary to Scripture.
The Apostle Paul told the Corinthians to keep the feast of Unleavened Bread. “Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us. Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.” 1 Corinthians 5:7-8
Constantine revered Sunday, the ‘Lord’s Day’.
Prior to Constantine’s changes, the first day of the Roman Calendar was Saturday; but he changed it to SUNday as he was a Sun worshiper.
Let me be clear about a misconception. There was no such thing as Saturday or Sunday during Messiah’s ministry, so Messiah was not crucified on Friday and He did not rise on Sunday; because there was no such thing.
Messiah died on the Holy Feast Day of Passover and He rose on the Feast of First Fruits, as he is the first to rise again.
So the early church did not meet on Sunday, because there was no such thing. They met on the first day of the Scriptural week, not the Roman calendar week.
The Roman calendar at the time had 8-days per week, and the days were named after the first 8 letters of their alphabet.
It wasn’t until later in the first century, they some Romans started observing a 7-day week, but the first day of that calendar was Saturday, not Sunday.
The point that I’m making is that the enemy has caused Christians to revere Sunday, but there is no Scriptural justification for it being the Lord’s Day.
And there is no Scriptural justification for a Saturday Sabbath either, as there is no way to align the 7th day Sabbath of Scripture with Saturday of the Roman calendar. And do we really think that Satan would allow that to happen anyway? Surely not, for he is a great deceiver!
Constantine removed the saints from observing the Sabbath.
The Father instituted the Sabbath observance as an everlasting covenant between Him and His people. Everlasting means that it does not end.
“And you, speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘My Sabbaths you are to guard, by all means, for it is a sign between Me and you throughout your generations, to know that I, Yah, am setting you apart.” Exodus 31:13
“And I also gave them My Sabbaths, to be a sign between them and Me, to know that I am Yah who sets them apart. ‘And set apart My Sabbaths, and they shall be a sign between Me and you, to know that I am Yah your Elohim.’ Ezekiel 20:12,20
Every believer who has a covenant relationship with the Father through the Son, is an Israelite. His everlasting Sabbath covenant has always been with the true Israelites, the one’s who believed by faith.
Satan hates this covenant, so he caused Emperor Constantine to forbid the practice, and forced people to worship on SUNday.
It is for our benefit as much as the Father’s. It causes us to be still for a day, to escape the influences and stress of this world. It gets people to spend time reading Scripture, in prayers, with family, with like-minded people, etc.
Most Christians mistakenly believe that Messiah did away with the law.
But the opposite is true. The Mosaic law was for babes, who could only stomach milk. But Messiah gave His followers meat, He wrote the law on their hearts and minds, and He gave them the Spirit to empower them to fulfill it.
Lest you think that I am saying that we can earn salvation by works, I am not. What I am saying is that works are the proof of our faith. If we really believe what we claim to believe, then we will have good works, which prove our faith. Faith without works is dead, it is no faith at all.
Messiah took keeping the law to the next level:
“Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment: But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire” Matthew 5:21-22
“Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart” Mat 5:27-28
The written record of our transgressions, which testify against us, which condemn us; was nailed to the cross of Calvary.
“And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross” Colossians 2:13
The moral law of the Torah, the commandments to observe the Holy Feast Days and 7th Day Sabbath, were not nailed to the cross and eliminated, as so many people teach.
The ceremonial law was fulfilled by our Messiah, who is fulfilling the Holy Feast Days in exacting detail, so we don’t have to observe the ceremonial part of the law, meaning we don’t have to sacrifice a lamb on Passover anymore.
Following His commands is not a burden, when we love Him.
“By this we know that we love the children of Elohim, when we love Elohim and guard His commands. For this is the love for Elohim, that we guard His commands, and His commands are not heavy.” 1 John 5:2-3
Protestant Churches teach false futuristic prophecy explanations.
Satan used the Popes of Rome to kill the saints during the Dark Ages. When Catholic monk Martin Luther was led to read the Scriptures, he found that the Roman Church was an apostate church, the harlot church of Revelation 17.
And he and all of the Protestant Reformers testified that the Popes of Rome are the Son of Perdition of 2 Thessalonians 2, and the antichrist beast of Revelation 13.
To counter this the Popes empowered the Jesuits of Rome, to counter the Reformation and bring the Protestants back under the authority of Rome.
They did this by force, through the Inquisition, where they tortured and killed the saints who would not renounce their beliefs.
And they did it by creating false Bible prophecy explanations, that assigned the fulfillment of Revelation to the end times, and said that the antichrist is one-man in the end. They did this to deflect blame away from the Popes of Rome.
The saints did not believe their explanations, and their deceptions didn’t take hold under a few hundred years ago.
Sadly, today their futuristic explanations deceive most Christians, as they don’t understand that the office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, fulfill prophecy as the antichrist, the enemy of Messiah and His church.
The saints should be protesting against the Popes and Jesuits of Rome, as they are the enemy of Messiah and His saints, and they mislead 1.2 Billion Catholics with a false salvation message.
They should be fighting against the enemy of Messiah and His Church, and witnessing to Catholics who have been misled.
The sad part is that most Christians don’t even know who the antichrist of Scripture is, and they have no clue that most of Revelation has been fulfilled during the last 1,900 years. And that is because they are believing the deceptions which originated from the Jesuits of Rome.
The enemy causes Christians to condemn people who are teaching these truths.
Believers today are so far removed from Scriptural truth, that when someone proclaims any of the Scriptural truths listed above, they are deemed as a heretic!
Sadly, some Hebrew Roots Movement people are legalistic Pharisees; but many of the truths that they share are Scriptural.
Christians have failed in their mission to shine as a light unto this world. The salt of their witness is rendered worthless. And I believe that American Christians are about to be judged.
Roman Emperor Constantine was given a vision that proclaimed, “In this sign, conquer!” and conquer he has. His creation of the Roman religion of Christianity has caused many saints to stumble.
Christians are a stumbling block to Jews coming to faith in Messiah.
The beliefs of Christians are a big reason why Jews don’t come to faith in Messiah. They know nothing of Easter and Christmas, as they are pagan and not Scriptural.
But the Jews certainly know the Holy Feast Days, because the Father declared them. And when we show them that the Messiah is fulfilling the Holy Feast Days in exact detail, then Jews can see that He is their Messiah.
They can’t comprehend that Messiah would do away with the Torah, the law; as Christians proclaim.
So they reject the pagan concepts that are associated with Christianity, and they remain lost.
Why would a follower of Messiah not want to know about the Father’s seven divine appointments, which Messiah is fulfilling to redeem us?
Why would a follower of Messiah not want to know about the fall Feast Day which represents the harvest and Messiah’s return for His bride?
You may think that your religious beliefs are just fine as they are, but this is what Messiah had to say about the end times church.
Because you say, “I am rich, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked.” Revelation 3:17
In Revelation 3:19-21, Messiah chastises the end-times church, proclaiming that they’re lukewarm, wretched, miserable, naked, poor, and blind. Then He gives us the promise:
As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. To him that overcomes will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
The word ‘overcomes’ in Greek is nikao. It means to conquer, to overcome, to prevail, to get the victory.
Ever since I began my studies of Revelation, and read that passage, I’ve felt that the name Nikao defined my ministry, for my calling is to teach the fulfillment of prophecy, and to expose the deceptions of the enemy. That is how we conquer the enemy and get the victory!
So when I created a Facebook profile for ministry, I used the name Nikao, because I don’t make Facebook about me. I don’t post selfies, I don’t make posts about my life. I focus on overcoming the enemy, by teaching prophecy fulfillment. When I started posting YouTube videos, I used that name.
It’s the name that I resonate with more than my given name, especially since I don’t have children, so my real name won’t be passed on. But I don’t want to mislead anyone about who I am. I hope that my work brings honor to my father and mother, who blessed me so much by teaching me about our beloved Messiah.
I pray to our Heavenly Father in the power of Messiah’s name that He will give you eye salve to see the truth.

How do you understand Colossians 2: Colossians 2:16-23 16 Let no man therefore trouble your consciences about meat and drink, or in respect of a holy day, such as the holy day of the new moon or of the Sabbath days. 17 These are nothing but shadows of things to come, but the substance is in Christ. 18 Let no man make you shoot at a wrong mark, who, following his own imagination, walks in the humbleness and holiness of angels, things which he never saw, senselessly puffed up with his fleshly mind, 19 and who does not hold to the Head, from whom all the body, by joints and ligaments, receives nourishment, and is knit together, and grows with the growth that comes of God.
20 Therefore, if you are dead with Christ to the observances of the world, why, as though you yet lived in the world, are you led by the precepts of those who say, 21 Touch not, taste not, handle not? 22 All these things do hurt to men because of the abuse of them, which abuse comes only of the commandments and doctrines of men – 23 which things have an outward show of wisdom, in self-chosen holiness and humbleness, and in that they do not spare the body, and pay no regard to the needs of the flesh.
Leslie, the King James reads a bit differently for Colossians 2:16 “Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days.”
I believe that Paul is telling the gentile believers in Colosse to not let the Jews judge them for observing the Sabbath and Holy Feast Days. The Jews probably believed that these things are for them and not gentiles, so they probably would have mocked the gentiles for observing them.
But gentiles are grafted into the Commonwealth of Israel and should keep in tune with the heavenly cycle, by resting on the Sabbath and celebrating the Holy Feast Days as Messiah is fulfilling them to redeem the set-apart saints.
I hope that helps,
David
I think you should consider the possibility that you may have distorted Paul’s in tension in this passage, since there is not even one other verse that encourages the body of Christ to “celebrate the festivals,” or the “sabbath” for that matter.
So, why did Jesus say, “It is finished,” on the cross?
All who are “in Christ Jesus,” have entered into that “rest” which the sabbath was a symbol of. In a sense, every day is a sabbath.
None of us get it all right. Generally speaking your teachings are both edifying and empowering, and I appreciate them very much.
Leslie, Messiah is fulfilling His Father’s seven Holy Feast Days to redeem the set-apart saints. When Messiah said “it is finished” that only fulfilled one of the feast days, Passover.
The feast of Unleavened Bread was not fulfilled yet, as it points to His sinlessness in the grave.
The feast of First Fruits was not fulfilled yet, as it points to His resurrection.
The feast of Pentecost was not fulfilled yet, as it points to His sending the Holy Spirit on the disciples.
The feast of Trumpet was not fulfilled yet, as it points to His return.
The Day of Atonement was not fulfilled yet, as it points to His judgment.
The feast of Tabernacles was not fulfilled yet, as it points to His marriage to His bride.
By that, we can see that Messiah was not proclaiming that the Holy Feast Days were finished.
There are several New Testament passages showing that Messiah’s disciples and the Apostle Paul continued to observe the Sabbath and the Holy Feast Days, after Messiah’s death.
Why would celebrating these Holy Feast Days, which represent the full Gospel story, be problematic?
I think that you should consider the possibility that you have a distorted view of the Holy Feast Days and what they represent.
David
I have been “considering” your teaching on Col. 2:16ff, which is why I brought these questions. I will continue to wait on the Holy Spirit to teach me, that is to open the truth to me. I do believe time is short, and that there are more urgent doctrines to be proclaimed.
There are more urgent doctrines to be proclaimed, but Messiah said to ‘Come out of her’ meaning come out of all of the false teachings that originated from the harlot church of Rome. Keep learning and growing in The Way of Messiah!
I am 100% agreeing with you on Christ fulfilling the feast days and will continue to fulfill on the exact day and I hope it to be this year. I appreciate you and your walk and love for Jesus. The boldness and faith necessary for carrying such a message identifying the enemy, no doubt requires power from the Holy Spirit The truths revealed unto you are beginning to find ears to hear, and I pray you remain humble, and open to the guidance that brought you this far. It is in love that I ask you to open your heart and mind to what the scripture says and not what you have been taught or assumed. Standing only on what the Bible teaches us. Please study Colossians 2 and give an answer to their question in context and not based on one sentence that can be taken out of context. I can and will help in any way possible. I am blessed by your ministry and want to be a blessing. This could introduce some misguided doubt concerning your accuracy and ability to understand scripture. Let’s work together to keep the doors closed to the enemy.
My intent is not to be criticising nor insulting you in any way. I only wish to help you stay blameless and relevant as you walk humbly and boldly with Christ Jesus.
Colossians 2:13-14 is pointing to the written record of our sins, the laws (ordinances) that we’ve violated, which condemn us; being nailed to the cross as Messiah atoned for our sins.
“And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;”
I don’t believe that Colossians 2:16 is talking about the new moon, Holy Feast Days or Sabbaths being nailed to the cross.
I believe that Paul is telling the gentile believers in Colosse to not let the Jews judge them for observing the Sabbath and Holy Feast Days. The Jews probably believed that these things are for them and not gentiles, so they probably would have mocked the gentiles for observing them.
But gentiles are grafted into the Commonwealth of Israel and should keep in tune with the heavenly cycle, by resting on the Sabbath and celebrating the Holy Feast Days as Messiah is fulfilling them to redeem the set-apart saints.
What is your perspective?
I would also like to share with you the amazing and wonderful wisdom and glory of Yahweh concerning Dec. 25th. In Our Fathers infinite wisdom He provided a way to glorify Jesus despite the pagan observance and deceit concerning Dec.25th. The astronomical events show with certainty that the wisemen brought their gifts to Jesus, then a toddler on Dec.25 th. It is just like God to use Satan’s plans against him. I believe he will do the same for the end times and that’s what brings an end to the Papacy after all that deceit God’s able to make things work out to glorify Him and fulfill prophecy to satisfy what appears to be two completely different and conflicting interpretations. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if the mainstream were right on time with the rapture, even though they are unaware of the actual truth we now know thanks to you. God bless you in your walk with Jesus.
Hello David,
Heavy information that warrants much study and prayer.
When would one observe the weekly Sabbath?
How do you interpret the following in regards to specifics of the sabbath and “first day”-
“In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre”
Matthew 28:1
I have heard many Christians state that this is why they worship on Sunday as it is referenced as “the first day” and the day Christ was risen.
“dawn toward the first day” is also confusing to me as I’ve read many writings stating a day is sunset to sunset.
Thoughts on that would also be appreciated.
Thank you!
Hello Shelly,
Regarding Matthew 28:1, there was no such thing as Saturday or Sunday in the early first century. The Romans used an eight-day week, and the days were named after the letters of their alphabet. It wasn’t until later in the first century, that they started to use a seven-day week, but the first day was Saturday and the second day was Sunday. It wasn’t until the fourth century until they changed the Roman calendar to have Sunday as the first day and Saturday as the seventh day.
So the narrative that Saturday was the seventh day and Sunday was the first day, and that Sunday is the Lord’s Day, is based on a false premise.
Matthew is speaking about the Scriptural calendar, not the Roman calendar. So he’s pointing to first day of the Scriptural week, not the first day of the Roman week.
I gave a summary of how to follow the Scriptural calendar on this page. On the bottom are links to other resources that give you more information on determining a new year and new month. https://comeoutofher.org/constantine-replaced-the-scriptural-calendar/
Keep learning and growing in The Way of Messiah,
David
Regardless of when the romans designated which day was which, the Jews would have kept the correct day simply because of Torah obedience and counting of the days.Hebrew days had no names only numbers; day 1 day2 etc till shabbat
Sure they twisted things here and there but Shabbat can’t be hidden even if its banned or changed, someone somewhere will keep tabs on the truth.
Mikhael, you’re making an assumption that the Jews (or someone somewhere) kept track of the Sabbath.
Emperor Constantine forbid Jews and the Early Church from following the luni-solar calendar, which resets the calendar each month based on the 29 1/2 day lunar cycle, which caused the day that the Sabbath was observed on to change every month.
Constantine forced them to observe a Solar-based calendar, which featured a repeating cycle of 7 days; or be subject to death.
In 358 A.D., Sanhedrin patriarch Hillell II compromised with Rome when he provided a mathematically-based calendar that would harmonize with the Roman Sun-based calendar, while appearing to still be based on the luni-solar Biblical roots.
In order to reduce persecution by Rome, the Jews exchanged Biblical lunar Sabbaths for the popularized Roman unbroken-cycle-of seven day weeks. This causes their Sabbaths to be out of sync with the New Moons, and with the holy appointed Feast Days.
Since then, Jewish leaders have developed “Rules of Postponement” to make sure that while following the Roman calendar, that certain Holy Days are not adjacent to the Saturday Sabbath.
But their “Rules of Postponement” are not Biblical, which confirms that the Rabbis are not using the Scriptural Calendar for the seventh day Sabbath!
You’re ignoring that the Scriptural calendar has three types of days, not two. The continuously-repeating ‘six work day / one Sabbath day’ cycle does not account for the Scriptural new moon day; which happens once a month.
The new moon day is not a work day and it’s not a Sabbath day, it’s a separate day on the Scriptural calendar, the first day of the Scriptural month. So the premise of the continuously-repeating ‘six work day / one Sabbath day’ cycle is not Scriptural.
Seek truth, not to defend a belief!
Thank you, David. An excellent study. I am sharing your pages/videos with as many as I can and appreciate your generosity of freely giving your divine insights to everyone. Love + Peace, MG.
The Beatitudes
5 And seeing the multitudes, He went up on a mountain, and when He was seated His disciples came to Him. 2 Then He opened His mouth and taught them, saying:
3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit,
For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed are those who mourn,
For they shall be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek,
For they shall inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
For they shall be filled.
7 Blessed are the merciful,
For they shall obtain mercy.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart,
For they shall see God.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers,
For they shall be called sons of God.
10 Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake,
For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. 12 Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
MG, I appreciate your zeal for Scriptural truth and for sharing it with others! 🙂
Thank you, David and I feel the same. I love how the spirit is working through you and pray more like you emerge so we can unite and make an impact on this age.
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives.
Do not let your heart be troubled and do not be afraid. (John=14:27)
Thank you for your prayers for more people to rise up to create a great awakening, to expose the many deceptions of the enemy!
Yes, Brother. This will be our strength as the body of Messiah. We cannot be known as the burnouts of the end of the age. I pray believers stop watching TV/movies/radio/SPORTs/ETC/satanic music, etc AND rise up and start acting and praying in Holy Messiah’s name. I pray the many see how evil and disgraceful this world has become and RESIST the WILES of Satan and stand against ALL sin, especially the sins against the innocent/helpless children. In ChristJesus’ HOLY name and with his PRECIOUS blood, I bind/break ALL witchcraft, demonic control/curses over the entire EARTHLY plain. I bind/BREAK all THE POWER OF THE wicked secret societies, ALL evil rituals, sacrifices, spells, incantations, magic, mind control and sorcery. In ChristJesus’s MIGHTY name, I BIND/BREAK all RCC/papal/VATICAN dominion of the Earthly Realm and leave them powerless.
Above is from Matthew 5:1-12
Our Heavenly Father gave believers authority over the Earthly realm. I pray myself and ALL who read this claim their GOD-GIVEN authority over ALL the Earth and Stop the Lawlessness. God Bless You.
Luke 10:19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
All powerful Lord, King of Kings, give me and my household your immunity against any attack from all and any scorpions and evil serpents in Jesus’ mighty name. AMEN
Why have some of my comments/prayers disappeared? Thank you and my our Father bless ALL of us so we can do what he wants/needs us to do. Thanks and much love, MG

Yes and no worries. I am grateful for all the fine work you have done to help me and pray many are led to the truths you are sharing. Thanks for your kindness and support.
Ephesians 6:12
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
