Heaven and Earth are Still Here

                                                                by Bruce Timpany

HEAVEN AND EARTH ARE STILL HERE ,SO THE WHOLE LAW IS STILL IN EFFECT YESHUA SAID THIS CRYSTAL CLEAR {{{ Matthew 5:17-20 17 }}}"Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. 19 Anyone who breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20 For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, you will certainly not enter the kingdom of heaven. LETS SEE WHAT ABRAHAM WAS DOING LONG BEFORE MOSES RECEIVED THE TEN COMMANDMENTS FROM YHWH ◄ Genesis 26:5 ►Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.NOW LETS SEE WHY JUDGMENT IS COMING ON PLANET EARTH .{{{Isaiah 24/3}}} The earth will be completely laid waste and totally plundered. The LORD has spoken this word.
WHY LORD- WHY-ANSWER
5 The earth is defiled by its people; they have disobeyed the laws, violated the statutes and broken the everlasting covenant.
6 Therefore a curse consumes the earth; its people must bear their guilt. ஜ۩۞۩ஜEzekiel 3/17ஜ۩۞۩ஜ
"Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel; so hear the word I speak and give them warning from me. 18 When I say to a wicked man, 'You will surely die,' and you do not warn him or speak out to dissuade him from his evil ways in order to save his life, that wicked man will die for [a] his sin, and I will hold you accountable for his blood. 19 But if you do warn the wicked man and he does not turn from his wickedness or from his evil ways, he will die for his sin; but you will have saved yourself.
Jeremiah 16:19 the Gentiles shall come unto thee from the ends of the earth, and shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein there is no profit.
Jeremiah 6 16 This is what the LORD says: "Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the-- ancient paths,-- ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls. But you said, 'We will not walk in it.' 17
I appointed watchmen over you and said, 'Listen to the sound of the trumpet!' But you said, 'We will not listen.' 18 Therefore hear, O nations; observe, O witnesses, what will happen to them. 19 Hear, O earth: I am bringing disaster on this people, the fruit of their schemes, because they have not listened to my words and have rejected my law.◄ Ezekiel 22:26 ►Her priests do violence to my law and profane my holy things; they do not distinguish between the holy and the common; they teach that there is no difference between the unclean and the clean; and they shut their eyes to the keeping of my Sabbaths, so that I am profaned among them.{{{◄ Psalm 119:126 ►}}}It is time for thee, LORD, to work: for they have made void thy law.

Holy Days

                                                           by Bruce Timpany

{{ Dear Friends and Fellow Servants }}}We are living in extraordinary times. Today, just as in the days of Isaiah, truth is fallen in the street; and judgment is turned away backward. On every front the truths of scripture are arrogantly disparaged while the wisdom and pagan customs of man is exalted and received as authoritative, and without question. We have a choice. We can choose the feast days instituted by YHWH or the holidays substituted by men. The choices we make affect our destiny and impact our relationship with our Creator.
'These are the feasts of the Lord, holy convocations which you shall proclaim at their appointed times.
The first four of the Seven Feasts of the Lord have already been fulfilled. They were fulfilled in spectacular fashion. They were fulfilled right on the auspicious Hebrew calendar dates on which they have been celebrated in times past, the same dates that will be celebrated forever more. The three spring feasts were fulfilled by Jesus our Saviour. And the summer Feast of Pentecost was fulfilled as well. It was fulfilled by the Holy Spirit 2,000 years ago. Here is the situation so far.

SPRING FEASTS

1. Passover Fulfilled! (By Jesus/Yeshua at His crucifixion on Nisan 14 in the spring of 32 A.D.)
2. Feast of Unleavened Bread Fulfilled! (By Jesus/Yeshua at His burial in the tomb on Nisan 15 in the spring of 32 A.D.)
3. Feast of Firstfruits Fulfilled! (By Jesus/Yeshua at His Resurrection on Nisan 17 in the spring of 32 A.D.)
4. Feast of Pentecost Fulfilled!

They are just up ahead.
FALL FEASTS
5. The Feast of Trumpets Unfulfilled ....(as of yet).
6. The Day of Atonement Unfulfilled ....(as of yet).
7. The Feast of TabernaclesUnfulfilled ....(as of yet). Tishrei 15 will come five days after that final epic Day of Atonement. This will mark the coming of Messiah to tabernacle with His covenant people. Thus begins the long awaited 1000 year Millennium of Messiah.
Deuteronomy/12:30 Take heed to thyself that thou be not snared by following them, after that they be destroyed from before thee; and that thou inquire not after their gods, saying, How did these nations serve their gods? even so will I do likewise.12:31 Thou shalt not do so unto the LORD thy God: for every abomination to the LORD, which he hateth, have they done unto their gods.
Over the last two millennia, traditional Christianity has systematically laid aside the "feast days of the Lord" and established its own holidays. Christmas was established to enable pagan converts to come into church fellowship without forsaking their heathen customs and practices. Easter is a replacement for the biblical Passover and Days of Unleavened Bread.
Even the weekly Sabbath was abandoned in favor of Sunday, the pagan day of the sun, supposedly to commemorate Jesus' resurrection , it took place not on Sunday morning but at the end of the weekly Sabbath at sunset Saturday).
Although we should immediately recognize that overruling God's instructions is dangerous behavior, let's consider, from the biblical record, whether such inventions and alterations are acceptable worship to our Creator God.
Changing God's instructions
When God began working with the ancient Israelites, He intended they set an example of obedience to Him for the nations around them (Deuteronomy 4:1, 6-8). They were to be a model nation, showing other peoples that God's way of life produces abundant blessings. Their experiences serve as continuing examples for us (1 Corinthians 10:1-11).
During their years in Egypt, the Israelites were exposed to Egyptian culture and worship. Notice whatUnger's Bible Dictionary says about this culture: "The Egyptian religion was an utterly bewildering polytheistic conglomeration in which many deities of the earliest periods, when each town had its own deity, were retained …
"Every object beheld, every phenomenon of nature, was thought to be indwelt by a spirit which could choose its own form, occupying the body of a crocodile, a fish, a cow, a cat, etc. Hence the Egyptians had numerous holy animals, principally the bull, the cow, the cat, the baboon, the jackal, and the crocodile" (1966, p. 291, "Egypt").
Shortly after miraculously delivering the Israelites from their bondage in Egypt, God instructed them how He wanted to be worshipped. He gave them His commandments (Exodus 20), along with statutes and judgments detailing how to apply them (Exodus 21-22). God revealed His feast days (Exodus 23:14-17; Leviticus 23) and gave directions regarding a priesthood, tabernacle and offerings (Exodus 25-31). God told Moses to climb Mount Sinai and gave him two tablets of stone engraved with the Ten Commandments (Exodus 24:12; 31:18).
When Moses didn't come down from Mount Sinai for some time (Exodus 32:1), the people prodded his brother Aaron into fashioning an idol for them to worship. They essentially mixed the Egyptian form of worship with the instructions they had just received from God. The practice of blending religious beliefs and practices is known as syncretism.
After creating a golden image of a calf, Aaron proclaimed the next day a holiday—"a feast to the Lord" (verses 4-5). They then "rose early and sacrificed burnt offerings and presented fellowship offerings. Afterward they sat down to eat and drink and got up to indulge in revelry" (verse 6, NIV). This celebration combined God's instruction with Egyptian religious practice and tradition.
We are not told why the Israelites chose this mix of worship. Perhaps they thought it was not a good idea to abandon all the familiar forms of worship at once and they simply practiced what they were accustomed to from their years immersed in Egyptian culture. Whatever their thinking, God was not pleased. He told Moses: "Go down, because your people, whom you brought up out of Egypt, have become corrupt. They have been quick to turn away from what I commanded them" (verses 7-8, NIV).
God shows from His Word that He expects more from those who claim to follow Him. He wants people to worship Him "in spirit and truth" (John 4:23-24)—not with corrupted, vile practices rooted in the worship of other gods.
Consequences of futile worship
The Israelites were in no way justified in departing from the God-ordained instructions introduced in the wilderness. God was so angered by their actions that He was ready to destroy the nation (Exodus 32:10). Only on Moses' pleadings did God relent and spare them (verses 11-14).
Ancient Israel's experiment with combining parts of God's instruction with pagan customs and elements was a disaster. In punishment for this sin, 3,000 men lost their lives (verses 27-28). Those who weren't killed had to drink water polluted with the ground-up idol, pulverized into powder (verse 20).
Being presumptuous—taking unauthorized liberty to do things such as altering God's instructions for worship—is sinful. The Bible describes the Israelites' actions as "a great sin" (verses 21, 30, 31). God's law is clear concerning presumptuous behavior (Numbers 15:30-31).
The principle holds true today among God's people. Once we come to understand His truth, we have an obligation to take steps to obey Him. We recognize that the instruction and examples in His Word were recorded for our spiritual instruction and benefit (1 Corinthians 10:6, 11; Romans 15:4)

Chariots

                                              by Bruce Timpany

{{{ Chariots Flying Vehicles }}} There are 10 verses describing chariots as vehicles in the Bible


Chariots There are 10 verses describing chariots as vehicles
in the Bible
   A clear indication of the physical nature of these flying craft is their description as chariots of the Elohiym.  The words from which ‘chariot’ is translated mean vehicle, cavalry, or millstone, which, of course, is a thick disc-shaped object.  The actual attachment of the number 20,000, though vague in true meaning, shows that a great number of flying vehicles are associated with the Elohiym, a fleet. The statement that Yhovah has chariots that are cloud-like is a direct key to the nature of the clouds associated with the Second Coming, literally thousands of flying vehicles.

2 Kings 
Spinning Chariots Of  Fire Take Elijah
  2:11 And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven. 12  And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces.
            Elijah and Elisha are talking and suddenly a bright, flying vehicle and a cavalry of bright, flying objects appear and Elijah ascends into the sky by a spinning-flying vehicle.  The word translated into horses, 'cuwc',
 means rapid movement or flight.  This cavalry of glowing vehicles is most likely the army spoken of where hosts appears.

Horses and Chariots Of  Fire
 6:17  And Elisha prayed, and said, Lord, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the Lord opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha. 18  And when they came down to him,  Elisha prayed unto the Lord, and said, Smite this people, I pray thee, with blindness. And he smote  them with blindness according to the word of Elisha.
            One or more flying objects descend to the ground and Elisha asks Yhovah to cause blindness to befall the surrounding army, 
which he does.  The army is captured and later Yhovah restores their sight.
Psalms 
Thousands Of Flying Vehicles
68:17   The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands of angels: the Lord is among them, as in Sinai, in the holy place. 18  Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive: thou hast received gifts for men; yea, for the rebellious also, that the Lord God might dwell among them.
            The vehicles of Elohiym number a myriad of thousands. Twenty = Myriad.  See  
Rev. 5:11

Clouds As Chariots
104:3   Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters: who maketh the clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind:              Yhovah makes thick clouds his vehicles and travels on the edge of the wind.
Isaiah
The Chariots Of God Spin And Glow
66:5  For, behold, the LORD will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire.
Jeremiah
The Chariots Of God Spin And Fly Swiftly
4:13 Behold, he shall come up as clouds, and his chariots shall be as a whirlwind: his horses are swifter than eagles. Woe unto us! for we are spoiled.

Zechariah

Flying Vehicles From The Sky
6:1 And I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass.             Zechariah looks up and sees four flying vehicles coming from between two copper colored mountains.

CHARIOTS OF GOD

Psalm 68:17 - "The 'Chariots of God' are twenty thousand, even thousands of Angels: the Lord is among them, as in Sinai, in the holy place."

What a beautiful verse of Scripture!! Think of Christ standing in the midst of thousands of 'Chariots' and thousands of angels. Picture Him arriving in Jerusalem surrounded by such a heavenly host, as He takes His throne to rule over all the earth as KING OF KINGS. (Zechariah 6:12-13 and 14:9,16) What a glorious, spectacular event!!!!

Isaiah 66:15 - "For, behold, the LORD will come with 'Fire', and with His 'Chariots' like a 'Whirlwind', to render His anger with fury, and His rebuke with 'Flames of Fire'."

Isaiah 66:15 is another Scripture concerning the Lord's 'Chariots'. Christ shall come with 'Fire' and with His 'Chariots' like a 'Whirlwind', to pour forth His anger and rebuke upon UNREPENTANT mankind (Revelation 9:20-21 16:9,11) and that, with 'Flaming' fury. God's Justice will be applied with Holiness and Righteousness. The Coming of the Lord draws near and as Judge, He stands before the door. (James 5:8-9) God's Word declares that His Day of Wrath shall come, and come, it shall!! (Revelation 6:17) Who shall be able to stand? 

Christ is full of pity and mercy, (James 5:11) but make no mistake, He continually calls mankind to repent. 2 Peter 3:9 says "The Lord .... is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. (Revelation 2:5, 16, 21, 22 and 3:3, 19)

If you doubt that God can be a God of Wrath concerning unrepentance - read these verses:
Wrath of the Lamb - Revelation 6:16 11:18 16:1 19:15
Day of the Lord comes with Wrath - Isaiah 13:9
Break them with a Rod of Iron - Psalm 2:9
Day of Wrath - Job 21:30 Proverbs 11:4 Zephaniah 1:15 Romans 2:5

Will you raise your arms in praise and fall on your knees to worship Christ when He comes and stands among the 'Chariots of God' and angels, or will you be one of those who will try to run and find a place to hide?

WAKE UP CALL - THE FIRE OF GOD IS COMING!!

Isaiah 66:15 - "For, behold, the Lord will come with 'Fire', and with His 'Chariots' like a 'Whirlwind', to render His anger with fury, and His rebuke with 'Flames of Fire'." 

2 Thessalonians 1:7,8 - "......... when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with His mighty angels," "In 'Flaming Fire' taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:" 

Nahum 1:5,6 - "The mountains quake at Him, and the hills melt, and the earth is burned at His presence, yea, the world, and all that dwell therein". "Who can stand before His indignation? and who can abide in the fierceness of His anger? His fury is poured out like 'Fire', and the rocks are thrown down by him."

Revelation 6:17 - "For the great day of His wrath is come, and who shall be able to stand?" 

2 Peter 3:10 - "But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up." 

2 Peter 3:11 - "Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness," 

2 Peter 3:12 - "Looking for and hasting unto the Coming of the Day of God, wherein the heavens being on 'Fire' shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?"

2 Peter 3:13 - "Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness." 

2 Peter 3:14 - "Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless."

The Creator's Calendar

                                                                   by Bruce Timpany

 God's feast days are missing on the Christian calendar. Many Gentile believers regard them as outdated, insignificant Jewish rituals. That is unfortunate because they miss the fullness and beauty of God's plan of redemption, reflected in His appointed times. The Old Testament feasts were dress rehearsals for the two greate.stevents in history –the first and second coming of Yahu’shua Ha'Mashiach.{{ Dear Friends and Fellow Servants }}}We are living in extraordinary times. Today, just as in the days of Isaiah, truth is fallen in the street; and judgment is turned away backward.
