  • Why a Monday Pentecost?
    Why a Monday Pentecost? Church of God, The Eternal P.O. Box 775 Eugene OR 97440-0775 www.cogeternal.org © 1997 Church of God, The Eternal Reprinted 2000 Why a Monday Pentecost? This article will address the current arguments which have embroiled the observance of Pentecost in a theological melee, namely, which day—Sunday, Monday, or Sivan 6—is the correct day for observing Pentecost. It is assumed the reader has already proven the necessity to observe God's annual Holy Days. If not, please ask for our article entitled, God's Holy Days—Should They Be Observed? Most of the arguments that are current today go way back. There were at least four different dates on which Pentecost was observed in ancient times. Reference material regarding Pentecost points out that the Sadducees, Samaritans, and Karaites all began the count for Pentecost on Sunday, immediately following the weekly Sabbath during the Days of Unleavened Bread. The Pharisees counted from the first high Sabbath during the Days of Unleavened Bread, while the Falashas (a small sect in Ethiopia) counted from the last high day during the Days of Unleavened Bread. The problem is the precise meaning of the word Sabbath in Leviticus 23:11, 15 which determines the date for observing the festival. From time immemorial this issue has been a matter of dispute. Since the time of the second Temple the Sadducees and Boethusians (a branch of the Sadducees), and the Karaites (eighth century AD) have taken the word "sabbath" in Leviticus 23:11, 15 to mean the weekly Sabbath—the seventh day of the week.

  • The Seven Festivals of the Messiah to Unlock a Lot of Mystery and Confusion in This Area
    The Seven FFeessttiivvaallss ooff tthhee MMeessssiiaahh EDDIE CHUMNEY The Seven FFeessttiivvaallss of the MMeessssiiaahh 2 One of the most fascinating and yet probably one of the least understood topics in the Bible is that of the feasts found in Leviticus 23. This book, step by step, examines each festival for the foundational truths God wants us to learn through them. These festivals prophetically speak of the first and second comings of Jesus (Yeshua) as well as provide tremendous insight into the Christian life and our personal relationship with God. This book will even answer the Jews' question: "Is Jesus (Yeshua) the long-awaited Messiah (Mashiach) of Israel?" As you study the foundational truths of the festivals of the L-rd revealed in this powerful new Bible reference volume, not only will you and your ministry grow spiritually, but your personal walk with God will blossom into a new dimension as well! 3 Foreword The festivals of the L-rd found in the twenty-third chapter of the Book of Leviticus ( Vayikra ) are among the most fascinating and revealing topics of study and inspiration in the entire Bible, yet at the same time, they are probably the least understood. This book will lead you step by step through each festival, examining the foundational truths that G-d wanted us to learn when He gave us these feasts. Bible believers who are lovers of G-d's Word will discover that the festivals of the L-rd are not only historic events, but are also prophetic. They speak in much detail about the first and second coming of the Messiah ( Mashiach ).

  • The Weekly Sabbath Leviticus 23:1-3
    The Weekly Sabbath Leviticus 23:1‐3 Characteristics: 1. Regular on the 7th Day 2. Rest – limited distractions 3. Weekly gathering for worship (Convocation) 4. For everyone (not optional) 5. Reminder of Creation (Exodus 20:11) 6. Reminder of responsibility (Genesis 2:2) 7. Relationship building Lessons: 1. We should never be far from worship 2. We should remain faithful in worship 3. We should remain aware of our relationship Shabbat Main article: Shabbat Jewish Shabbat (Shabbath, Shabbes, Shobos, etc.) is a weekly day of rest, observed from sundown on Friday until the appearance of three stars in the sky on Saturday night; it is also observed by a minority of Christians (as in Messianic Judaism). Thirty-nine activities prohibited onShabbat are listed in Tractate Shabbat (Talmud). Customarily, Shabbat is ushered in by lighting candles shortly before sunset, at halakhically calculated times that change weekly and geographically. Judah ha-Levi (12th century) proposed a nascent Jewish date line for dating of Shabbat, later calculated to fall between China and Japan (other lines exist, and travelers are expected to note both personal and local Shabbat); and Pinchas Elijah Horovitz (18th century) stated that polar regions should observe Shabbat based on calculating 24-hour days, although without establishing a date line. Shabbat is a widely noted hallmark of Jewish peoples. Subbotniks (literally, Sabbatarians) are a Russian sect, categorized as either Jews or Judaizing Christians, that became particularly branded by strict Shabbat observance; (Hungarian-born Reform rabbi Ignaz Einhorn even culturally shifted his congregation's Shabbat worship to Sundays.) Several weekly Shabbats per year are designated as Special Sabbaths, such as Shabbat haGadol, prior to Pesach (literally, "the High Sabbath", but not to be confused with other High Sabbaths); and Shabbat Teshuvah, prior to Yom Kippur ("Repentance Sabbath").

  • Sadducees, Pharisees, and the Controversy of Counting the Omer by J.K
    Sadducees, Pharisees, and the Controversy of Counting the Omer by J.K. McKee posted 17 January, 2008 www.tnnonline.net The season between Passover and Unleavened Bread, and the Feast of Weeks or Shavuot, is one of the most difficult times for the Messianic community. While this is supposed to be a very special and sacred time, a great number of debates certainly rage over Passover. Some of the most obvious debates among Messianics occur over the differences between Ashkenazic and Sephardic Jewish halachah. Do we eat lamb or chicken during the sedar meal? What grains are “kosher for Passover”? Can egg matzos be eaten? What are we to have on our sedar plate? What traditions do we implement, and what traditions do we leave aside? And, what do we do with the uncircumcised in our midst? Over the past several years, I have increasingly found myself taking the minority position on a number of issues. Ironically, that minority position is usually the traditional view of mainline American, Ashkenazic Conservative and/or Reform Judaism—the same halachah that I was originally presented with when my family entered into Messianic Judaism in 1995. I have found myself usually thrust among those who follow a style halachah that often deviates from the mainstream. Certainly, I believe that our Heavenly Father does allow for creativity when it comes to human traditions. Tradition is intended to bind a religious and ethnic community together, giving it cohesion and a clear connection to the past. It is only natural for someone like myself, of Northern European ancestry, to more closely identify with a Northern and Central European style of Judaism, than one from the Mediterranean.

  • How יהושע Messiah Counts the Omer
    Messiah Counts the Omer יהושע How Synopsis: The Messiah Counts the Omer from Day 16 / Month 1 by the Messianic Method. Shavuot can fall on Day 5, Day 6, or Day 7 of Month 3. The Omer count historically commemorates the 50 days which were counted from the day after Israel left Rameses, Egypt on Day 15 / Month 1 until the 10 Commandments were given on Day 7 / Month 3 in 1437 B.C.E. There has been controversy since the Age of Instruction on how to count the 50 days to Shavuot. Those who is יהושע the Messiah counted the Omer as יהושע the Messiah would want to keep Shavuot the way יהושע follow the Way the Truth and the Life according to John 14:6. said to him, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life.

He יהושע who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?
