What's Your Resolution for the Biblical New Year?

IF there’s grown barley Abib (GREEN ears of MATURING-RIPENING corn/grain) and in harvesting quantity throughout a satisfactory amount of fields in Israel (Isaiah 2:3; Micah 4:2) by the time this upcoming new moon becomes visible to our naked eyes (PLEASE look for it, facing the western horizon) come Friday SUNSET/evening 23rd March 2012, then this will be when the new-moon-first-day of the moon of Abib FIRST month of the year ushers-in on the Bible lunar calendar. This new moon evening will be no exception where convening in praise and worship to our Creator at each new moon is concerned. And furthermore, this will be on the evening of the weekly Sabbath from the above said Friday SUNSET.

     Thursday evening 5th April from SUNSET would then be the lunar fourteenth (14th) evening in a worship service memorial observance of the Passover death of our Savior, symbolized in the washing of each others feet and the partaking of the unleavened bread and the fruit of the vine (non-alcoholic) by ONLY those who have repented from sin and been water baptized (immersed) in the one and ONLY name of our Savior, YAHSHUA (NOT Jesus or any other name), for the remission of sins and ARE currently on good standing. Those not meeting these New Testament (Covenant) criteria for salvation into the kingdom of heaven are by no means forbidden from being present at and witnessing the worship service memorial observance of the Passover death of our Savior.

     The lunar fifteenth (15th) to the twenty-first (21st) day, as always, is the Bible given timing and duration on its lunar calendar for the Feast of Unleavened Bread carded to run from Friday SUNSET/evening 6th to Friday SUNSET 13th April 2012, for seven (7) days. The first and last days are annual holy Sabbath (rest) days in congregational praise and worship to our Creator. These are the only seven (7) lunar days in each biblical year on which we are being biblically commanded to ensure that leaven be NOT found in our houses and bread/biscuits/cakes/pastries manufactured, baked and eaten must NOT AT ALL be leavened, in obedience, honor and reverence to our Creator. Read the labels on food products quite carefully before accepting/purchasing grocery food items to physically and spiritually ensure of keeping leaven out of our houses and bodies during the seven (7) lunar days stipulated.

     Have you timed your annual vacation leave to coincide with the timing of the Bible commanded annual Sabbaths and three-times-in-the-year festival seasons?

     It would be good to see a change in trend by the so many who put so much time, effort, preparation and financial/monetary support in practices including Christmas (Jeremiah 10:1-5) and Carnival/Bacchanal/reveling (Galatians 5:19-21; 1 Peter 4:1-5) the Bible by no means supports, to instead be putting such time, effort, preparation and financial/monetary support in practices the Bible dictates to us to live by and we MUST adhere to, to inherit eternal life.
