Today I would like to post this message from a dear brother in Yeshua who has the Great Joy in Great Tribulation website. Below is a very informative and important narrative on the Feast of Trumpets, yesterday and today, and what is expected of us His faithful remnant during this feast. Please take the time to read it and spend time with Yeshua, reviewing your iniquities and repenting for all the ways in which you have remained separate from our Creator.

It is right and proper that we talk about the Days of Teshuvah NOW. The Feast of Trumpets begins the Days of Awe. We see the world so obviously on a collision course of destruction, even the great tribulation war of which the Lord Himself did prophecy. The set up for World War Three is complete, even to have it be blamed on the Jews. The treacherous dealers are seen and known to be dealing very
treacherously. The process is not reversible. Still, we must know that rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft. Rebellion is never an option for the bondservants of the Lord Jesus Christ. In a time such as this, I would prefer to write only on faith and encouragement to seek the grace of God found only in repentance and faith in
Yeshua THE Messiah.
We will now look at the DAYS OF TESHUVAH, meaning the Days of Return or Days of Repentance.
The Feast of Trumpets is Tshri 1 (First day of the 7th Month – Beginning at Evening of September 16, 2012). The Feast of Trumpets is a 2 day feast on Monday and Tuesday, September 17 & 18, 2012. Regardless of how confusing the rabbis can make things some times, we do know that Passover is in Abib, or Nissan, the first month. Therefore according to the God, who does not change, New Years Day is Nissan 1, or 14 days before Passover. The Jews NEVER called the first day of the Seventh month the New Year until AFTER they returned from
Babylonian captivity. The Jewish calendar changes from 5772 to 5773 on Monday September 17, 2012. There were 240 years DROPPED from the Jewish calendar in 135 AD, making this actually 6013 years since creation. Just as those alive at the end of the FOURTH Millennium who knew the Scriptures, knew it was time for the Messiah's First Coming. Today we all should know even much more clearly it is time for the Messiah's Second Coming, and that is EXACTLY what the Feast of Trumpets celebrates and observes.
The days of Teshuvah, or Days of Repentance, or Days of Awe, conclude
on Tshri 10 - on Yom Kippur – The Day of Atonement, this year September 26, 2012. We seek repentance especially in these 10 days, which we have NOW BEGUN and lead to a climax on the LAST day, Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. People who KNOW the Messiah should recognize how important it is to observe this Feast of the Lord, Who alone is our Atonement. The people of God should have ears to hear His call, to His people, to prepare our heart by seeking His grace in forgiveness, through Repentance. The 10 days starting with the Feast of Trumpets and ending with the Day of Atonement, or Yom Kippur, are known as the Days of Awe. How very awesome they do seem this year of 2012.
The FEAST OF TRUMPETS (Rosh HaShanah or Yom Teruach) is a Biblical Feast of the Lord, which one may find in Num 29 and Lev 23, that begins on the first day ofthe seventh month, Tishri 1. Rosh Hashanah means "head of the year." According to Jewish tradition, it is said to be the day the gates of heaven are opened, (Rev 3:7-11).
Tradition has it as the anniversary of the creation of the world, and the beginning of the Kingdom of HaShem (God), Adam and Eve were created, the flood waters dried up, Enoch was taken by the LORD; Sarah, Rachel, and Samuel were conceived, Joseph was freed from prison by Pharaoh, forced labor of Hebrews in Egypt ended, Job
contracted leprosy, the start of sacrifices on the altar built by Ezra, all according to facts or tradition, occurred on this day, the Feast of Trumpets, the first day of the seventh month of Tishri. Believers should recognize that Yeshua was clearly referring to the Feast of Trumpets, celebrating His Return in Great Power and Glory,
in Mat 24:36, and Mark 13:32.
The Feast of Trumpets is the ONLY Feast of the Lord celebrated on the FIRST day of the month, on the new moon. According to Jewish tradition, all of those events happened on Tishri 1. The Feast of Trumpets is celebrated by blowing trumpets (shofars) 100 times to announce the setting-up of The LORD's eternal court. The Biblical way of observing the Feast of Trumpets is by reading, and studying the
book of the Law, Deuteronomy.
The rabbis would say that the sounding of the shofar reminds us of the binding of Isaac by his father Abraham. True or legend, we should remember the sacrifice Abraham was willing to make. We too must be willing to make such sacrifices. On this day we reaffirm The LORD as our King. The rabbis would teach that the Lord judges all of His human creatures on this day, and decides on their fate in the
coming year. Not biblically, not according to what God said, and even contradictory to what God said, the rabbis would have people believe the first day of the Seventh month to be first day of the new civil year. Hence, the typical Jewish greeting of Happy New Year, Shanah Tovah, have a good year. These 10 days are called the Days of Awe or High Holy Days.
This was also the time to bring all of your tithe (10th) for the poor, widows, orphans, and the Levite priests who have no inheritance. Over these 10 days the wheat will be brought in on the threshing floor and separated from the chaff. I do hope that all
on the GJiGT list will NOT fail to hear the call of God to His people to be DILIGENTLY seeking His GRACE found and evidenced in REPENTANCE - NOW in this time when His door of Grace is still open. We do know that it will soon be as it was in the days of Noah when the door was closed by God. We can perhaps even see that door closing with increasing strong delusion and great apostasy. Isa 55:6-7Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
Brethren, I must tell you there is a soon coming day when MANY will seek Him with cries and tears and it will be too late.
This 2-day feast comes AT A DAY AND HOUR NO MAN KNOWS and you are not
required to go up to the temple on this day. This is the day set up to remember the blowing of trumpets when the great sign appeared in the heavens of the announcement of Yeshua's birth (Lion of Judah), which the Chaldean astronomers had been watching, and waiting for, for over four hundred years, (Rev.12:1-2). The blowing of the Shofar reminds us of that seventh and LAST TRUMP that will announce Yeshua's second coming and the Resurrection of the Saints, (I Thess 4:16,17). That LAST Trump, on the LAST DAY, the Day of the Lord, immediately
AFTER the great tribulation Gog-Megog war, will be the end of Jacob's trouble, (Jer 30:7). Yes, that will be the end of the first or premillenial Gog-Magog War we now see FULLY SET UP. Immediately AFTER the great tribulation will be the resurrection, the rapture, and the return of the Lord, to start the millennial reign of King Yeshua.
The DAY OF ATONEMENT (Yom Kippur) is the ONLY BIBLICALLY REQUIRED
FAST DAY. You may read about it in Lev 16:29; 23:26-32, that happens on Tishri 10, this year September 26, 2012. On one such day soon we will know the end of the 70th week of Daniel 9, and the culmination of the prophecy of Daniel. It is the final day of the 10 Days of Awe. This is the most solemn and holy day for BELIEVERS who trust in the ATONEMENT of the Blood of the PERFCT, Sinless Lamb of God, of whom
Abraham did prophecy – GOD WILL PROVIDE HIMSELF. A LAMB. It is to
be spent in Fasting, Praying, and Confession of Sins. Yom Kippur is the only REQURED FAST day of the year, in the Holy Bible. Yom Kippur is the day the chaff was burned up on the threshing floor on the temple mount, and this is the day the gates of heaven are closed, (Rev 3:7-11), and those who are not atoned for, will be judged. According to ancient Jewish tradition, this is the day when the
sealing angel of Ezekiel 9, Rev 7:2-3, and Rev 9:4, is sent forth to seal the people of God.
The day of Atonement was the only day of the year, that the high priest could enter the veil, into the Holy of Holies, to make atonement for the sins of the nation, by sacrificing an animal and placing 7 drops of blood on the east end of the top of the ark of the covenant, or mercy seat. The day of Atonement is also the most likely day that the transfiguration took place with Moses and Elijah, representing the Law and the Prophets, and the day Yeshua's ministry was confirmed after the order of Melchizedek. This also may be the day of the abomination and desolation, when the ANTICHRIST will STOP the OBLATION Altar. God will judge every human heart,
regarding if it is like the Holy Spirit filled apostles, who would risk their life, twice a day, every day, AFTER Pentecost, to show RESPECT for the OBLATION Altar - OR - like the antichrist, who wants the OBLATION altar Stopped. (Dan 11:31, 12:11; Mt 24:15, Mk 13:14). That will be Judgment Day, or the Day of the Lord, (2Pet 3:10-13; Matt 25:31-34; 2Cor 5:10). That will be the day that Satan will be locked away for one thousand years.
And in nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them an
evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Pray Psalm 83 every day. Only be
very strong and of good courage. Stay IN the Word.
From Chittim, Isa 23:1,
Shalom & Simcha,
