CHRIST'S COMMANDMENTS AND GOD'S MORAL LAW ARE SYNONYMOUS!

Click Image To Enlarge

In my previous articles about the Freedom and Liberty that is given to all born-again believers in Christ, many have attacked my views concerning the freedom believers have from the keeping of the seventh day Sabbath, and the Law of Moses as the Jews do, sullied as they are by the traditions and interpretations of men who did not really know God (See Mark 2:24-28). But this does not mean that believers can ignore the entire Law that God set down for the Israelites. Only the Sacrificial and Priestly Laws were abolished on the Cross, NOT the Moral Laws! In fact, if they are truly born again, believers will feel and hear the Holy Spirit urging them to follow all of God's Moral Laws. This is why Yahshua or Jesus - Who is God Incarnate, the Word of God, and the I AM WHO I AM that spoke to Moses - taught His followers that He did not come to abolish the Law, but to fulfill it:

~*~ Matthew 5:17-20 ~*~ “Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. 18 For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled. 19 Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20 For I say to you, that unless your righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.”

Indeed, we are called throughout the New Testament to keep God's Moral Laws or Commandments. Nowhere does our Messiah Yahshua or Jesus, the Apostle Paul, or any other apostle or disciple of Christ say that we do not have to worry about them any longer! Examples of New Covenant admonitions to keep God’s Moral Commandments include the following: John 14:15-21; 1 John 2:1-6; and 1 John 5:1-4.   

The Ten Commandments in Exodus 20, and the Moral Laws in Exodus 21, Exodus 22, and Exodus 23, which was called the Book of the Covenant, along with the Moral laws in Leviticus, Chapter 18, Chapter 19 and Chapter 20, and in Deuteronomy 18, Deuteronomy 19, Deuteronomy 21, Deuteronomy 22, and Deuteronomy 23 (with the exception of the Laws pertaining to war or slaves, which Yahshua never supported or condoned) summarize the Moral Laws of God. All believers should be aware of, and should strive to keep these Moral laws to the best of their ability. Of course, I firmly believe that the Holy Spirit will remind all born-again believers to follow God's Moral laws - even if they are unfamiliar with them.

In the New Testament Gospels and the Epistles, we are also called to temper ALL of these divine legal requirements with Yahshua's call for love, compassion, mercy and forgiveness. In fact, many of the chapters of Moral Laws that I've linked to in the Old Testament were recalled, reiterated and further elaborated upon in the Gospels by Yahshua or Jesus during His First Advent Ministry, which was primarily directed toward the Israelites living in Judea in the First Century AD. This can especially be seen in His Sermon on the Mount, which is recorded in Matthew 5, Matthew 6, and Matthew 7. Believers who assume that the Moral Laws that Yahshua discussed on that mountain top do not pertain to Christians are completely wrong, for Yahshua's blood covers every believer, and literally makes them an Israelite, priest and king in the likeness of Yahshua.

The Commandments, Laws or Works that were nailed to the Cross with Yahshua in death were NOT the Moral Laws of God, but any and all of those Laws related to the Old Testament priesthood and sacrificial system. This included the Laws pertaining to the tabernacles, temples, priesthood, priests and priestly garments, sacrificial animals and burnt offerings, and the special animal sacrifices on the Feast days (See Hebrews 10:11-14; Colossians 2:13-15). Thus, the Liberty and Freedom that we have in Christ is based on no longer having the need to keep and uphold the sacrificial system and its priesthood, or to honor the unbiblical traditions that sprang up around them.

One major exception to this rule were the tribal assembly requirements that were called for on three of the Seven Feasts of Israel, which were Passover, Pentecost, and the Feast of Tabernacles (See Exodus 23:14-17). Born-again believers are also called by Christ to gather together to commemorate His place in our salvation on Passover via the Lord's Supper and Resurrection Sunday. In addition, most believers keep Pentecost as the birthday of the Church.

Many believers also keep Christmas as a celebration of Christ's birth narrative, which encompasses all of the Autumn Feasts of Israel - from the Feast of Trumpets to the Feast of Tabernacles. In addition, Christmas is also directly tied to Chanukah, which was viewed as a secondary Feast of Tabernacles by the Israelites, and it is also the likely time when Yahshua was conceived by the Holy Spirit in his earthly mother Miriam's womb. Chanukah was instituted as a Feast during the Maccabean period of Israel's history, and although it is considered a minor feast, it has a very big prophetic importance to disciples of Christ in regard to the Last Days. See my books "The Language of God in Humanity" and "The Language of God in Prophecy" to read about the many aspects of the prophetic significance of Chanukah, and all the Feast Days.

Even as we are called to commemorate these three yearly feasts in our own way, Yahshua and His apostles and disciples commemorated the Weekly Sabbath  differently than the Jews, who were bound by unbiblical traditions. Stripped of these restrictive traditions, they did not have to keep the weekly Sabbaths in the same way that the Jews do. In fact, throughout His First Advent Ministry, Yahshua showed His followers that they are to view everyday as a perpetual Sabbath with Christ. This means that the Sabbath should be dedicated to loving and helping others by following the lead of the Spirit of God in them.

So, rather than resting from all work on the Sabbaths, believers are called to care for one another, and for their livestock and pets as they are called to do on every other day of the week. Instead of not working at all, they are called to spend the day drawing near to God with songs, testimonies, baptisms, prayers and scripture study, and to go out healing the sick, raising the dead, and feeding and clothing the poor and hungry with physical and spiritual food and clothing. In short, born-again believers are called to live as though they are dead to the world, but alive in Christ. Their Freedom and Liberty comes from following Christ rather than the Law and the traditions of men that sully them. This is why born-again believers are free to keep the Feasts and the Sabbaths as they see fit until Christ comes back for His saints.

However, in the Millennial Kingdom, all of Christ's servants will be required to keep Passover, and the Feast of Tabernacles, and most likely Pentecost as well. The weekly Sabbaths will also likely be times for special celebration, fellowship, and spiritual reflection. Passover, Pentecost and the Feast of Tabernacles are the same three feasts mentioned in the Book of the Covenant that required the Israelites to assemble before God, and all believers will likely be called to do so during the Millennium also (See Exodus 23:14-17; Luke 22:14-16; Zechariah 14:16-19).

For further study on this topic, I have written several related studies. The titles and links to these articles can be found below. I pray that these will be a blessing to those who are seeking to know and follow Christ.

Year Of Jubilee 2016 Heavenly Sign Promise Pointing To The Wedding Of The Lamb!

~* Jupiter and Venus in Conjunction in Virgo, August 27th, 2016 *~

Click On Graphic To Enlarge

In honor of the two prophetically important End Time Heavenly Signs that mark the end of this special 2016 Jubilee Year, I have created this article, which contains a series of graphics depicting these Heavenly Signs, and a detailed explanatory text. Together, they describe the meanings of these two Signs in the Heavens, which appear to be heralding the Second Coming of Christ to retrieve His Bride, and the Wedding of the Lamb in Heaven. Although there is no way to know if these Signs mean that the Wedding of the Lamb is at the door or not, many believers are hoping that the Rapture will occur before the end of this Year of Jubilee on Rosh Hashanah or the Jewish New Year, which the Jews will celebrate beginning on the evening of October 2nd, 2016. The first graphic that I have posted above this paragraph depicts the Jupiter and Venus Conjunction in the Sign of Virgo the Virgin on August 27th, 2016.

On August 27th, 2016, beginning at about 7:40 pm, when the Sun was low enough below the Western horizon, an amazing sight could be seen. This was Jupiter, the Planet tied to Christ as a Suffering Servant and Savior, and Venus, symbolizing Christ as the Light of The World and the Morning Star, in a very close conjunction next to the star Zavijava in the head region of Virgo the Virgin. Virgo is a symbol for Miriam, the mother of Christ, and is also a symbol for the Purified Bride of Christ. In addition, Mercury, the planet symbolizing the Prophets of God recording a prophetic Word, was very close to the other two planets. This points to the high prophetic importance of this End Time sign.

It is believed by some that the Star of Bethlehem was a conjunction of Jupiter and Venus. However, it is not likely since conjunctions don't last long enough. As I have shown in my book "The Language of God in the Universe", which chronicles the godly spiritual meaning of the Mazzaroth or Zodiac, the Star of Bethlehem was followed for a long time before it settled over Bethlehem. At that time, it was the planet Jupiter alone that most likely served as the wandering star that came to be called the Star of Bethlehem at the time of Yahshua or Jesus' birth, which was sometime between the Feast of Trumpets on September 11th, 3 BC and the week long Feast of Tabernacles, beginning on September 26th, 3 BC. In fact, in the aforementioned book, I also showed how Yahshua was likely born on the Day of Atonement, which is five days before the Feast of Tabernacles or Sukkot, and that He was likely born inside a Sukkot booth rather than a manger at that time.

Now, it is important to know that it takes one year for Jupiter to pass through one sign of the Zodiac, and it goes into retrograde motion on a yearly basis in the sign it is in. As it does, Jupiter appears to draw a slow circle in each sign, and it likely went into retrograde motion over Bethlehem, and appeared to stand still over it for a week or more. At that time, it could also have moved into conjunction with another planet or bright star, making it appear even more brilliant than normal.

In fact, there were many conjunctions of various planets, including Jupiter and Venus, both before and after September of 3 BC, and all of these figured as signs alerting the Magi that a significant event on God's prophetic calendar was about to occur. This is also true of this current  time period in history, as there have been three conjunctions of Jupiter and Venus alone in the past two years that mimic the ones that occurred before and after Christ's birth in September of 3 BC that occurred on August 12th, 3 BC in Leo, and on June 17th, 2 BC in Leo.

Just as in ancient times, when there were many conjunctions of other bright planets and stars before and after the most likely time of Yahshua or Jesus' birth, there have been many conjunctions before and after the Blood Moon Tetrad of 2014 and 2015, which had four Blood Moons occurring on the first day of the week long Jewish Feasts of Passover and Tabernacles in both years. To see the complete list of Heavenly Signs that lead up to this August 27th, 2016 Conjunction of Jupiter and Venus in Virgo, read the following article on my POEM Ministry Blog:

Jupiter the Star of Bethlehem In Leo 

From June to November 2015: 

Is This Part of the Sign of the 

Son of Man Heralding the Rapture?

http://pillarofenoch.blogspot.com/2015/07/jupiter-star-of-bethlehem-in-leo-from.html

Though this August 2016 conjunction between the two brightest planets in our Solar System as viewed from Earth did not occur in Leo, the sign of the Lion of Judah, the last two in 2015 did. These were on June 17th, 2015 and October 26th, 2015. Fascinatingly, this latter date was exactly two weeks after a Heavenly Sign that I believe is the actual Sign of the Woman Clothed With The Sun described in Revelation 12, and it occurred in Virgo on October 14th and 15th, 2015. The image below shows this amazing sign. which was very similar to the sign that appeared on September 11th, 3 BC - around the time of Yahshua's birth:

Powerful Prophetic Signs In The Heavens From

September 2015 Through September 2017 - 

What They May Mean For Christ's Bride

http://pillarofenoch.blogspot.com/2015/09/powerful-prophetic-signs-in-heavens.html

The illustration above shows this sign, and below it is the link to the POEM Ministry Blog article I wrote to show why this Sign was almost exactly like the sign that appeared on Rosh Hashanah on September 11th, 3 BC, which was around the time that Yahshua was born.  A similar but incomplete sign like it will occur on September 23rd, 2017 in Virgo and Leo, but it is not as close in appearance to the sign at Yahshua's birth as the sign that appeared in October of 2015. To show the contrast, I've added an image of the September 23rd, 2017 Sign in the Heavens below. In addition, the link to the article abut the powerful heavenly signs in September of 2017, which are all very important, appears below the following illustration:

Prophetic Analysis of the 

Amazing Heavenly Signs in September 2017

http://pillarofenoch.blogspot.com/2015/07/amazing-heavenly-signs-in-september-2017.html

Before I move on to explaining the importance of the amazing sign on September 1st, 2016, I want to encourage all those reading this article to read or review all of the articles that I link to in this one, especially if you have never read them before. The reason I am asking is because so many believers are parroting what they have heard from others who are attempting to explain these heavenly signs, but have different interpretations than I do. But, although they have shown little or no proof for these differing interpretations, I carefully show the proof for my conclusions in these complimentary articles that I link to.

Now, I want to share my delight at the next sign, which I had not really examined closely until a week before it was set to occur. Here is my first illustration of this magnificent Wedding Ring or Annular Eclipse as it will appear this September 1st, 2016 as seen from Madagascar that was made with my Redshift 7 software, followed by another even more magnificent rendition of it as seen from Dodoma, Tanzania that was made with Starry Night Pro:

~* Annular Solar Eclipse, Sept. 1st, 2016, As Seen From Tanzania *~

Click On Graphic To Enlarge

As the illustrations above clearly show, this Annular Solar Eclipse will occur on September 1st, 2016 in the Sign of Leo the Lion of Judah. At that time, the New Moon representing the hidden Bride of Christ will cover the Sun signifying Yahshua as the Sun of Righteousness in Leo the Lion, which depicts the Bridegroom and King of Judah. The illustrations show how this Annular or "Wedding Ring" Style Eclipse will appear as seen from Dodoma, the capital of Tanzania, and from Madagascar, in the Indian Ocean.

Meanwhile, unseen on the Earth due to the Sun being high in the sky, the planet Jupiter, which is tied to Christ as a Suffering Servant, Venus symbolizing Christ as the Morning Star, and Mercury, the symbol of fulfilled prophecy, will form a triangle of powerful Witnesses to the Wedding. This triangle of planets will occur in Virgo, symbolizing Christ's Purified Bride. This is an amazing prophetic sign that appears to be heralding the Wedding of the Lamb in Heaven, especially because the two Zodiac Signs it is occurring in signify Christ as the First and the Last Messiah of mankind, who came as the Alpha or Aleph at His First Advent. and will come as the Omega or Tav (i.e. Cross) at His Second Coming, which is when Christ comes to rescue His Bride in the Rapture - just as the Great Tribulation begins - at the opening of the Sixth Seal.

What's also interesting about this Solar Eclipse is that, although it will not be visible from anywhere in the Northern Hemisphere, its point of greatest totality will be due south of the Sinai desert near Israel. As shown in the diagram below, a line drawn from the eclipse path at its point of greatest totality northward will intersect a part of the Sinai Peninsula where the real Mount Sinai is located - near to the southern deserts of Israel:

Another interesting fact about this Wedding Ring Eclipse is that, if the Torah Calendar is followed, then September 1st, 2016 is the day before the actual date of Rosh Hashanah or the Jewish New Year, which the Torah Calendar indicates will begin on the evening of  September 2nd, 2016 (To Download The Torah Calendar 2016 PDF, CLICK HERE). Fascinatingly, the evening of Friday, September 2nd, 2016 is the start of a seventh day or Saturday Sabbath, which begins on the Friday evening prior, and many people have ad dreams indicating that the Rapture could be on a Sabbath.

So, although no one knows the day or the hour of the Rapture, or the timing of the Wedding of the Lamb in Heaven, these Signs in the Heavens that have appeared near to the end of this Jubilee Year are comforting signs that our Messiah, Bridegroom and King Yahshua has created because He knows that His Bride is watching for Hiss coming. He therefore wants to comfort those born-again saints who are His Bride, and let them know that He has not forgotten them, and that He is coming to rescue them from this wicked world that is ripe for God's Wrath very, very soon.

Love, Blessings, and Maranatha!

Map Showing The Identity Of Rosh And Magog As Russia

Map of Russia Showing Region Called Magog - Click To Enlarge

The important illustration posted above was just added to two of my recent articles concerning the identity of the kingdoms called Rosh and Magog mentioned in Ezekiel 38, and the identity of the Beast from the Sea. This map ties a history map showing the borders of the USSR in 1922 with an older secular map of a portion of Russia. This old map was created in 1874, and it clearly identifies a portion of Russia as Magog.

Please read or re-read these updated articles that are linked to below. These two articles are filled with very important facts that will help believers understand what is going on pertaining to the End Times, world political events, the timing of the Rapture, and the upcoming War of Gog and Magog:

I Heard A Loud Trumpet Sound Again!

Rabbis Blowing Shofars on Rosh Hashanah - Click To Enlarge

I just remembered something that happened late in the evening on August 26th, and God has moved me to write about it! So here is what happened: I had gone to bed around 1 am on Friday (so it was actually already Saturday, August 27th!), and I was having trouble falling asleep, when I suddenly heard a loud noise! it was like a cross between a trumpet, and the sound of rusty machinery gears trying to move, and it distinctly sounded like it was coming from the West (the direction of the end, or sunset!) since I heard it loudest coming from outside of my angled, northwest-facing bedroom window!

When I heard this sound, I also heard my husband wake out of a sound sleep because he heard it too, and I said aloud "What the heck was that?", to which Steve was silent, since he had no clue. It repeated a second time after that, and then a third time where it was much shorter and quieter, and then it stopped, and we both finally fell asleep. But since I didn't get up and write what happened down when it happened, I forgot about it until now!

It was the same exact sound that I have heard on numerous videos on YouTube from all around the world over the past few years. Though these sounds may have something to do with the CERN experiments deep inside the Earth, it also may be God's hand on the Earth to serve as a warning that the Trumpets blown at the Rapture - and the Sudden Destruction of the world that will accompany it - are getting very near!

With these back-to-back Signs in the Heavens consisting of the Jupiter-Venus Conjunction on August 27th and the Annular Eclipse on September 1st, 2016, as well as the end of Summer at the Autumn Equinox on September 22nd, 2016, and the end of this Jubilee Year approaching on the Feast of Trumpets - I am geared up and ready to leave in the Rapture at any moment. The Feasts of Trumpets, also known as Rosh Hashanah, is either on September 1st and 2nd according to the Torah Calendar, or on October 1st and 2nd according to the Jews. So you should be striving to be ready too - at all times!

To get ready, repent of all known sins, say you're sorry, ask God to forgive you, and forgive everyone who has wronged you just as God forgives you when you repent. Also ask God and those whom you have hurt for forgiveness, and make restitution whenever possible. Hold no bitterness in your heart, and always strive to act with kindness, mercy, love and compassion

We should strive to be this way at all times, no matter how vile others are toward us - but only if there is hope for them. If God tells you to move on and let go of an argumentative person through His Spirit, do not cast your pearls before swine. You do not have to allow yourself to get beaten into the ground by an enemy to know when to retreat! Instead, pray for all these lost souls at a distance, and ask God to help them to repent before the end.

I just wanted to share this in case the Rapture is close, and I feel that it is. Indeed, it could be any day now! So please take time to pray, repent, forgive and tie up all the loose ends in your spiritual and emotional life now!

By the way, this is not the first time I heard this "trumpet mixed with rusty gears" sound! I heard it for the first time a few years ago, during the day time, but coming from the same direction. Here is a link to a YouTube Video that plays the sound of Shofars, or Jewish Ram's Horn Trumpets being blown, and I wanted to share it because what I heard sounded a good deal like this, only with a sound like the mechanical creaking of rusty gears added to it:
