Dress Rehearsals and Rejecting Pagan Days

Amen and amen. So, why did God command the children of Israel to be in Jerusalem three times a year? He ordained this commandment in order for the people to be in Jerusalem three times a year for the dress rehearsals, so they would also recognize the time of their visitation at Messiah's first coming events. In other words, He desired them to understand how to worship and be set apart on His divine appointments with the anticipation of the fulfillment of the divine appointments at Messiah's first coming and His second coming events. This is why I go through that, my friends, on what He told the Jewish people in Matthew 19:41-44. Remember, they should have known these things. They should have known all of these things, the events, the prophecies that the Jewish Messiah had to fulfill, whoever that would have been at the time, they should have known that. And that's when these are prophecies.

He's got to fulfill everything. So, whoever the Jewish Messiah was going to be, the Jewish Messiah had to fulfill all of these prophecies, including the feast days. They're prophecies. Call them feasts, call them divine appointments, that's what they are. They're really prophecies as well. So, that's for all of our Christian friends to understand: He has to do these things, or it would have eliminated Him from being the Jewish Messiah. You see, He has to tell everybody to turn back to the ways of God, the instructions of God. And if He doesn't, He would be eliminated from being the Jewish Messiah. So, please understand that before someone takes Paul out of context. Isaiah 2, Micah 4, the two great prophets say He's going to send the Torah out to the nations during the millennial kingdom so that they can understand how to be set apart. And if they receive it, amen, they're in the kingdom.

And if they don't, the gavel. So, it's really that simple, everybody. That's what His main understanding, His main deal when He comes back is to send His Father's Torah out. This is one of His main prerequisites to send the laws of God, who Christianity calls bondage, to send them out to get the people out of bondage in the world. Not in bondage, out of bondage. Because someone's in bondage if they do not keep the commandments of God. Someone is out of bondage if they do keep the commandments of God. It's the reverse way of what Christianity will tell you, is what I'm saying. You've got to follow God.

And that's why Jesus is going to throw out the commandments all over the world, and the swords are coming after that if they don't follow. Just please go read what he's going to do in Isaiah 2, Micah 4, Isaiah 11, and Revelation 22. He's coming to get rid of falsehood, lies, paganism, and false stuff. He's coming to clean that up for all these different religions. So, it's very important for the people who say they love God and they love Jesus to follow Jesus and to worship him the way he said to worship him, not what the church has said. Because when he comes back again, please read the Bible. He's going to put his Father's laws and commandments on this earth because he has to do that as the Jewish Messiah. So that's Isaiah 2, Micah 4, Matthew 5, Matthew 23, John 14:15, and all over the place in the Holy Bible. We just got to read that instead of going to Paul and seeing where we can be rebels and breaking all the commandments of God.

We've got to go back and read the Jewish Messiah and what he said, and what the Father said, to be in the alignment that he wants us to be in. For example, Passover weekend, also known as Unleavened Bread, which is Nisan 14-17, is when Messiah was crucified, buried, and resurrected, just like we showed right here. Very awesome. Passover, crucified, unleavened bread, buried, first fruits, he was resurrected. Paul calls him the first fruits of mankind for a reason, for us to understand the feast of first fruits. And then 50 days after the feast of first fruits, he poured out his Holy Spirit in Acts 2 at Pentecost, or Shavuot, which is the original name of that. So, we just have to understand proper understanding, proper theology, proper eschatology, and get out of all the divisions out there, because this is super serious. The Feast of Weeks, which is the Shavuot Pentecost festival, is when the Holy Spirit was poured out in Acts 2.

These divine appointments were fulfilled at Messiah's first coming events, which is when they were commanded to be in Jerusalem. How awesome is that? That the men were commanded to be in Jerusalem so that they would witness these things. This is why Yeshua cried out and lamented over Jerusalem and prophesied destruction over them because they did not understand the time of their visitation. I've said this many times before. This is super important. Please read Luke. He was going in on Nisan 10, which is four days before the crucifixion on Passover. The remnant always knows what's going on. "Hosanna in the highest, Son of David. Save now. Save now. Hosanna." They understood the time of the visitation. The remnant did. But unfortunately, the majority of the Jewish people did not. And what did he say? "It is all hidden from your eyes. Now, if you would have known, for what was your peace, now you're going to be embanked by all of your enemies, and you're going to be destroyed." Why?

"Because you did not understand the time of your visitation," is what he said. So, if he wanted the Jewish people to understand the time of their visitation, and if the Jewish people understood and were celebrating, they didn't understand, but they were celebrating the festivals of God, and they still didn't get it, the majority of them. What does that say for Christianity? I mean, you think he's partial? You think he's going to say, "Well, the Christians got the grace. You know, the Jewish people, they don't have grace, but the Christians do have the grace." Do you really think he's like that? No. One way only, no partiality at all. So, if he told the Jewish people that, you better believe he's telling the Gentiles that. Better believe that. He's not going to just be partial against the Jewish people and not expect those who say they love him to get in alignment. I mean, I think that's just ignorance, to be honest with you, that you can just do whatever you want to do and not get in alignment.

The Jews have to do all the commandments, and the Gentiles have to do none of them. That is just a wacko, wacko mindset of theology, and really self-idolatry, and really laziness, and really rebellion, is what that truly is when you look at it. That we don't have to do anything at all. We don't have to show him we love him at all. Because I guess he fulfilled love too. No, you got to show him you love him by keeping the commandments. That's what he said. John doesn't say Chadwick, but I'll use my name in it. "If Chadwick loves me, he will keep my commandments." That's what he expects. He told the rich ruler in Matthew 19, the rich ruler says, "How do I get to eternal life?" That's the question. And Yeshua said, "Follow the commandments," is what he said. And then the rich ruler said, "Which ones?" You know, like, I'm sure all the rebels, all of us do down here. "Which ones, Lord? We want to do as minimal as possible down here." You know, God forbid if we try to follow the commandments.

He said, "Don't murder. Don't do adultery. Follow the commandments of God." Is what Yeshua was saying. So again, it's all over the New Testament. And I just think sometimes people take him very liberal. And he is not liberal on his Father's commandments. Actually, he's the judge of that. He's the executioner of that. He's the one with the sword of that. He's got the book of life on that. So again, I would look at it the opposite way. I said this over the Feast of Trumpets and the Feast of Yom Kippur, that so many people are concerned about the Antichrist. "Oh God, get raptured. Antichrist is coming. Antichrist. Oh my gosh, the beast kingdom." I mean, goodness gracious. Who are you worried about? The beast kingdom, or you worried about Yeshua? I'd be worried about him. I wouldn't be worried about the beast kingdom. I'd be worried about Yeshua, the Messiah, coming with a sword that thinks everybody's cool and everybody's not cool.

We got a lot of foolish virgins out there. That's what I would be concerned with: the Day of the Lord, not the Day of the Antichrist. Nowhere does it say that to be afraid of the Day of the Antichrist. It says you want to be hidden in the Day of the Lord, is what it says. So I think the respect factor and the healthy fear, healthy fear, not bad fear, healthy fear, reverence needs to go back on the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. Because for those who are not following him and his commandments, it's just not going to be good. It's just not going to be good. It says that all throughout the Bible. There's a reason why in Revelation 12, Satan, when he's thrown down from heaven and indwells the Antichrist, there's a reason why it says this, that he goes after the Jewish people that flee to the mountains, Mount Zion, and they are supernaturally protected because it says that. But what does Revelation 12 say after that?

After that, the Antichrist, indwelt by Satan, goes after those who love Yeshua, the testimony of Yeshua, and keep the word of God, the commandments. All throughout the Bible, Daniel says it. Exodus, the Ten Commandments says that those who love God, that's not all, and keep his commandments. So, don't forget the hand, everybody. Don't get the hand that keeps going with the understanding of what it truly means to follow him and to love him. It's not just "I love God." No, it's showing people and showing him you do love God, and I do love God. How? By being set apart. Being on the Sabbath, being on the Tabernacles, being on the Passover, being on the Shavuot, being on these holy days, it sets you apart. That's what the Sabbath does. If you read Exodus 31, you read all these scriptures, the Sabbath lets everybody know that you are His because it's a set apart day. That's why people come against it so much, right?

Because they have the rebellion in their heart. They're just not set apart. I'm not saying they're not saved. God knows that or not. Or God knows if they're saved or not. I'm talking about being set apart. And if you're set apart, one has to follow the calendar, Shabbat, Passover, all of the holy days. None of the pagan days. How could anybody be set apart if they're worshiping pagan days or traditional days from the church? How could anybody be set apart? I couldn't be set apart with that either. So again, my friends, it's very just think about these things. Logistically, just logic will tell you, if we're following God, we're set apart. But if we're not following God, we're not set apart. That should be common sense, right? For all of us to understand. So, anyhow, people don't really think about these things because of the false theology and the understanding that Jesus just hyper-grace, hyper-grace, hyper-grace, hyper-grace, hyper-grace everywhere, you know, to where you don't have anything other than just grace only.

That's it. And that is not what the Bible says. The Bible talks about the fear of Adonai more than anything. In fact, in Isaiah 11, fear is in the seven spirits of God, not grace. Fear is. The Spirit of the Holy Spirit, the spirit of wisdom, spirit of knowledge, spirit of understanding, spirit of counsel, spirit of might, and what? The fear of Adonai. Go read all the passages. Go Google it. Go ChatGPT it. How many times does it say "fear of God" in the Bible compared to "grace"? Go look it up, because I promise you, if you have a healthy and reverent fear for God, you're going to find your grace. I can guarantee you that if you have a healthy and reverent fear. Don't take this conversation out of context. We all know we're saved by grace through faith. We all know that, okay? But people take that out of context. What that means, we are his workmanship. Paul continues to say in verse 8 in Ephesians 2, "We are his workmanship." What does that mean to go worship like a bunch of pagans?

No, it does not. It says to get in alignment with him. We're his workmanship. We should be an example of him, set apart through him. So again, people really need to understand what Paul's talking about in Ephesians 2, grace and all these things and faith and being set apart. Being set apart is not only just believing in Jesus. Being set apart is believing in him. And if you believe in him, you're going to follow him. Well, what do you what are you going to follow? What did he do? All of this. So again, people say they believe in Jesus. I would question that because if you believe in something, you follow that and you don't have any kind of, you know, doubts at all. Christians aren't following the Jewish Messiah. So here's something to think about. I left Christianity to follow Jesus, the Jewish Messiah. Think about that. I left it. No part of it. Why would I go look at it and go compare it to the Bible?

I left Christianity to follow Jesus, the Jewish Messiah. And if people can really understand that, that doesn't understand that the light bulbs will go off then about Christianity because they have no ways to worship that are of him. That is factual. All right. So again, he wanted them to worship three times a year in Jerusalem so that they would be in alignment with him. Number one. And number two, that they would see the fulfillment of these things. The one generation would see the fulfillment of the Jewish Messiah coming to fulfill Passover on Nisan 14. Nisan 15, he laid in the tomb. Three days from Passover, three nights, first fruits, rose from the dead. And then they would have been there for that week of unleavened bread. All of the Jewish men would have been there to witness this, and they were there, but only the remnant would have understood that. And then obviously, we know his Holy Spirit was poured out on Pentecost or Shavuot, when again, three times a year they had to be there.

He even told the disciples, "Tarry in Jerusalem for 10 more days, and then you will be on power from on high. You'll be given power from on high." The Holy Spirit. So again, there's a reason he told him that because he wasn't going to break the Father's commandments. He told, including the disciples, had to be there 10 days from there. That's why he told them to tarry in Jerusalem for 10 more days because if they didn't, they would have broken the commandment. They would have been in, you know, Lebanon, or they would have been in Syria, or wherever they would have gone to preach the gospel. No, he wanted them to be in Jerusalem because of the event, the divine appointment that was going to happen at that period of time. So, with that being said, my friends, we've got these three left. Don't you want to understand those at the appointed time? Don't you want to be, if we're going to witness these things, we'll see what happens.

But if we're going to be the generation that witnesses the tribulation and also the second coming events, we better know these. And even if we're not, don't you want your children to understand this, your grandchildren to understand this, so that if they're here for that, that they will understand so they're not caught as a thief in the night as well? So again, it goes into a lot of heart posture for mankind, including our children and our grandchildren. And sometimes people don't really think about that because people think about themselves more than anything. They don't even think about their children or their grandchildren with the ways to worship and what that means prophetically speaking if they're not on this earth. Well, do you want your children's, you know, do you want to be educated or not? Because if they're not, they're going to be caught as a thief in the night as well. So again, this goes into a hard position for mankind, including family, including generations down there.

Even if we're not going to be the generation to see the return of the Messiah, we're just going to have to wait and see what happens. I mean, we'll just have to wait and see how that all goes down. Most people do believe we're at the end of the age. I do as well. I'm just trying to understand, help people understand this is serious. We got to take our faith serious. You know, that's what I see again, just like we talked about on the Feast of Trumpets. Do you know how many people, almost two billion people, just look at the American Christians. Let's just take the American Christians. Look at the American Christians right now tonight. Do you know what people are doing? Not the Sabbath. And they're not doing the Feast of Tabernacles either. And I'm not trying to be critical. It's just the facts. So, think about that. These are people who love Jesus. Love Jesus. Love Jesus. And they're not celebrating the fourth commandment of the 10.

Think about that. That they love Jesus. You see what I'm saying? So again, I'm not the judge. He's the judge. I'm just trying to understand where's the understanding of that because where's your heart posture towards the Messiah and towards Yah? If we're not even keeping the fourth commandment, well, if we don't keep the fourth commandment, then I can break all of them. Then I can go back to my old lifestyle if I can break the fourth one, right? Take them all or don't take none at all. All in or all out, is what Yeshua would say. Hot or cold, wise or foolish, good or evil. You never see gray. You never see middle ground, purgatory. You don't see all that. You see hot, cold, wise, foolish, good, evil, get in or get out. So, that's what you see in the Holy Bible, all throughout the Bible. It's pretty serious stuff, right? So, let's all get in. Let's all get in to the Most High. Let's all try our best with our heart postures to worship him in spirit and in truth.

Yeah, you're going to be called Jewish. You're going to be called this. You're going to be called that. Great. Wonderful. But who cares? I mean, who do you love? Him or the world? Right? So, to me, it's like just that comes with it. Persecution will come with it. Name-calling will come with it. Why? Because that's all they've got is name-calling. Because they definitely don't have the Bible on their side. They definitely don't have theology on their side. They don't have anything but all of these other things to criticize and all these things to other people, but they're the ones with the problem. You see? So, for me, the way that I look at it is it's about discipleship. You know, we've got to start discipleship because that's where we've lost it. It's true discipleship because our children, our grandchildren, and all our cousins, our nephews, our nieces, and all these people, they're not going to understand this if they go to an institution here on this earth.

So again, that's why we say what we say and that just think about that that unfortunately that we have a lot of our Christian friends, two billion of them are not celebrating the Sabbath tonight and tomorrow. Two billion are not celebrating the Feast of Tabernacles. You know why? Indoctrination. It's a Jewish thing. All these things, what people say, it's like a recorder. That's why you know it's indoctrination because everybody says the same thing. "Oh, it's a Jewish thing." "Oh, we don't have to do that." "Oh, Paul got rid of that." Oh, did he? You might want to go read Paul again. And if even if he said that, then he's not the lawgiver. There's only one lawgiver. That's Yahweh. That's the Father. I'm not sure why everybody thinks anybody can override the Father. That's a question for my Christian friends. When did Christianity think that they could tell the Father his commandments are done away with?

When? When? I'm not sure when that could happen. No one had the authority, including Yeshua, to tell the Father his commandments are obsolete and done away with. We've got to get back to just really almost common sense is really what I personally think instead of biblical sins. Let's just get to common sense. And I think we will have a better row at it because I love people to say that, you know, this is not any, hey, I used to be just like them for 38 years, but we've got to wake up because I look back and I had absolutely zero clue whatsoever, and I was on the highway to, you know, where, you know, and that was pretty obvious. So, and I had a cross around my neck. I love Jesus and ain't life grand. He had a different opinion. He told me my life was a lie instead of me saying ain't life grand. So I think a lot of people are living the lifestyle that I used to live as well that are Christians.

All this worldly stuff, social stuff that everybody thinks is all good and dandy, and before you know it, you're out of alignment, right? Like I used to be. So it's very important, friends, as we go down to the end of the age to understand these things for our children, for our grandchildren, to it's got to change sometime, you know, and I can only do what I do. You can only do what you do with our friends and our family. But it's got to change sometime because it will in the millennial kingdom. When we get to the millennial kingdom, the Feast of Tabernacles, there won't be any of this Christmas, all this stuff, Easter, Constantine Sabbath on Sunday. I mean, loony tune stuff. No, those people might not even be in the millennial kingdom, number one. But whoever is in the kingdom will be on His days only, and that is it. Or friend, how did you get in here with a different garment on? Bind that servant hand and foot and cast them out where there be weeping and gnashing of teeth, because it's a different way, friends.
