Shane Vaughn Teaches; Trading Santa for the Sukkah - YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wN7qoDRmxU Transcript: (00:02) [Music] h [Music] [Music] it's that time of year again and I want to talk to you about the uh Suka that you see here in our home uh many people uh may not understand what this is about and I wanted to take a moment just to help those of you that sincerely desire to know the truth uh what we are celebrating when you see the sucas which is a Hebrew word for Booth or Tabernacle so this is a booth this is a tabernacle (01:06) that we have built in our home and uh it has great meaning for us and for those that are in God's true church for there is a dance that goes on uh between two people and when you see two people dancing and I wrote about this in our most recent book called trading Santa for the Suka I encourage you to get that booklet but if if you see two people dancing and one is out of rhythm and I'll be the first to admit you don't want to dance with me because I cannot keep the Rhythm and so if you dance with someone and they're out of (01:42) sink and they're out of rhythm it's going to be awkward to say the least and grotesque to say the worst so when you're dancing when you come into sink there's a Unity that takes place there is a Oneness that takes place and it's beautiful when both people are dancing to the same tomb and the same Rhythm sadly Yahweh God and his church on the earth have been dancing to different tunes for nearly 2,000 years I want to talk to you about that if I may Yahweh created the Sun the moon and the stars and the Bible said that he created them (02:22) to tell us when the Divine appointments were you can find this in Genesis whenever he created the moon and the the sun and the Stars he said he created them for signs well signs give us a message and then the next word is he created them for Seasons that's a bad translation it should be the Hebrew word moed and that basically means a Divine appointment so he created the Stars the moon and the sky and the sun to tell us when the Divine appointments with him and his Israel which is his church his congre conation his Ecclesia was (03:02) supposed to be these are set times you don't have to guess when they are there's no guess work he's already set the Heavenly schedule when he comes into Unity with his Earthly bride the Heavenly groom and the Earthly bride there is a coming together on holy convocations it's when the true church the ones that are in sync with his timing come together at his commanded assembly as you know there's seven of these Divine assemblies throughout the year we've already celebrated the first three and that was in the spring of the year now we have (03:41) come into the sacred season of The Fall festivals and our home is all a glow with the uh sacredness of this season I encourage you to do the same however many in yahweh's church many in God's church for those that prefer titles over names many are on a different dance Rhythm you see if a man is Dancing with his wife or his bride or his fiance and another man steps in then he has broken the unity and the sacredness of that Bond of that rhythmic Bond some years ago another man stepped in to yahweh's dance his name was Pope (04:25) Gregory his name was Constantine these are lovers these are fornication lovers that have stepped in and taken over the Heavenly dance they created another Rhythm that God's church is acclimating to and you know those rhythms as Christmas and Easter and Valentine and all of the things created by Rome but there is another group of people they're in the Earth today they've been in the earth since yua Jesus was on the earth they are dancing to the same Rhythm that yua danced to he said I do what the father says and that's why we always see (05:08) him in Jerusalem on these holy occasions that's why even at the threat of death he would not dare miss the Passover because he knew that there's a rhythm there's something sacred about when the church comes into Unity with her husband on these sacred assemblies now now this other man stepped in created another Rhythm and the church is dancing to that Rhythm the church is moving in that direction and they gather on dates where Yahweh God the Father the Creator the Eternal one has not promised to meet with them on those dates he said these (05:49) dates are to be kept forever so ladies and gentlemen we are now about to enter into this video is being made on September the 25th 20 16 we are just a few days away we are waiting for the new moon and we will have the seventh month on the biblical calendar not the Hebrew calendar the biblical calendar not the Roman Calendar the biblical calendar so that seventh month I know I love the word seven isn't it funny that Yahweh sets all these feasts up in the seventh month there's a reason for that it foretells of the seventh day of the (06:27) Sabbath nevertheless let's continue so now we're entering into that seventh month the new moon will be upon us very soon we are commanded by Yahweh that in the seventh month that his holy congregation is to come together for four sacred assemblies all in that seventh month he wants our mind on the number seven he wants us to know what he's going to do on the seventh day in the 7,000 year he doesn't want our focus on our problems he don't want us dancing with our worries he wants us dancing with him every seventh month and every (07:04) seventh day there's a purpose there's a paradigm in this number he said on the first day of the seventh month we're to celebrate trumpets our congregation will be doing that this coming Sunday night it's going to be fabulous when we sound the shaffar and we preach to the people the truth concerning the Feast of trumpets after that 10 days later we will celebrate or will we celebrate we will be dancing we will be shouting we will be exuberant about that aasil goat that will soon be put into handcuffs by that great man called yua Christ Jesus (07:43) he will arrest Lucifer upon on that day 10 days we celebrate the Feast of atonement and then finally we come into this celebration called the Feast of Tabernacles or booths or Suka SU got the Hebrew word for booths or Tabernacles it is during that seven days he wants that Feast to be seven days long imagine that Yahweh is in love with seven you need to get in love with seven or else you'll be a six six six you'll never equal up and get in rhythm with the seven dance now he said for seven days I want you to celebrate what comes after the Feast of (08:26) trumpets and after atonement I want you to celebrate at the Millennium rain the seven day Millennium rain for seven days and so every year our families in first Harvest Ministries and throughout caci and all of our congregations and even outside of our groups there're everywhere all over the world people are building booths because Yahweh commanded us to build booths during these seven days every time my wife and I Karen when we walk in our home this is what we see not a Christmas tree of pagan Roots but we see a booth we see a tabernacle and (09:05) we're reminded of that man that came and tabernacled with us we're reminded that these bodies are Tabernacles they're not Mansions they're Tabernacles they Earthly dwellings and that is why our Suka if you look past all the fres and the beauty is made out of burlap this canvas here is a burlap canvas it's very rough and coarse just like these old bodies but then we cover that with the beauty of the Millennium rign we covered that body with the new body that we shall soon put on what a thought what a thought what a thought and so we (09:46) celebrate the coming reain of yua when this old Tabernacle will be put off and we will get our new bodies which is the inheritance of the Saints this is why we chose choose to celebrate the Suka rather than Santa Claus we're on a different dance we're in a different Rhythm and so all of our homes have these and then for seven days we will leave our homes and we will travel and dwell in temporary dwellings and all week long we will celebrate that old song of the church I'll have a new body praise the Lord I'll have a new life (10:27) that new life is coming this is is something worth celebrating not Old St Nicholas but Yahweh and when he comes yua to return to the Earth to set up his government on the earth when we will rule and reign with him over the nations of the world this booth says to us that that day is coming this old body is about to shed and the new body is about to come and then finally after we celebrate this for seven days we will take our booths down we will put them in the Attic until next time for the Heavenly dance next year when he wants (11:05) to remind us of Truth also I'll close with this in a few days you'll see gifts surrounding this Suka gifts for our children gifts for one another why because we know when the birth of Christ was and we know when it was not we know it wasn't when 25 other gods were born on December the 25th this is why the Bible said have nothing to do with the customs of the heathen we understand that on December the 25th all of the sun gods were born all of the Tam Muses were born we get that so we want nothing to do with it we want it to do with the way (11:40) of Israel God's holy nation now we know that yua could not have been born in the 25th I won't get into that on this video there's many videos that prove to us that he was born to US during the Feast of Tabernacles indeed he came and tabernacled with us to know when Yeshua was born you only have to know when John the Baptist was born and we know that by many clues in the scripture especially concerning his father Zacharias because he was in the course of the first course of the temple I won't get into it on this video but it is during Tabernacles (12:18) that we bring our children and we teach them the truth rather than the lies and we present them with gifts as the wise men did to our Savior and we allow them to enjoy and lose out on nothing they do it during the time when we are commanded by Yahweh to acknowledge the Feast of Tabernacles and at the end of Tabernacles we celebrate one last Feast it's called the 8 Day Festival or the last great day I won't get into that today trust me it's it's loaded with meaning but we will be preaching on that at the Feast of Tabernacles in Peru (12:57) Indiana this year and we look forward to preaching on that last great day of the feast what it means for you and your family and my my my what a message it is God bless you around the world I hope you understand now why we have traded Santa for the souk

Summary

1. Introduction to the household sukkah — 00:02–01:42 Vaughn introduces the sukkah constructed inside his home. He explains that sukkah is a Hebrew word referring to a booth or tabernacle. He says that the structure has special meaning for his family and for those he identifies as members of Yahweh's true church. He mentions his booklet Trading Santa for the Sukkah. 2. The heavenly dance and the divine calendar — 01:42–03:02 Vaughn compares worship to two people dancing together. He explains that unity requires both participants to follow the same rhythm. He teaches that Yahweh and much of the church have followed different religious rhythms for nearly two thousand years. He cites the creation of the sun, moon, and stars and explains the Hebrew term moed as referring to divine appointments. 3. The bridegroom and the appointed assemblies — 03:02–04:25 Vaughn describes Yahweh as the heavenly bridegroom and the congregation as the earthly bride. He teaches that the appointed feasts are occasions when heaven and earth come together in sacred unity. He refers to seven annual divine assemblies and distinguishes the spring festivals from the fall festivals. He encourages families to recognize the sacredness of the autumn feast season. 4. The influence of Roman traditions — 04:25–05:49 Vaughn names Constantine and Pope Gregory while criticizing changes to Christian religious observance. He contrasts Christmas, Easter, and Valentine's Day with the appointed times of Yahweh. He teaches that Yeshua followed the Father's instructions and participated in the sacred assemblies. He argues that the church should follow Messiah's example rather than later religious traditions. 5. The seventh month and its prophetic meaning — 05:49–07:04 Vaughn states that the recording is being made on September 25, 2016. He explains that the congregation is awaiting the new moon marking the seventh biblical month. He distinguishes the biblical calendar from the Roman calendar. He teaches that the number seven points toward the Sabbath and the coming seventh millennium. 6. Trumpets and the Day of Atonement — 07:04–07:43 Vaughn discusses the Feast of Trumpets on the first day of the seventh month. He describes the congregation's anticipated celebration with the sounding of the shofar. He then discusses the Day of Atonement ten days later. He connects the Azazel goat with the future restraint of Lucifer by Yeshua. 7. The seven days of Tabernacles — 07:43–09:05 Vaughn introduces the Feast of Tabernacles as a seven-day observance. He teaches that its duration reflects the prophetic importance of the number seven. He connects the celebration with the coming millennial reign. He describes families building booths in obedience to Yahweh's command. 8. The sukkah and the promise of a new body — 09:05–10:27 Vaughn explains the symbolism of the burlap and decorations used in his household sukkah. He compares the rough material to the present mortal body. He associates the beautiful covering with the future transformed body and the glory of Messiah's reign. He describes families traveling and dwelling in temporary accommodations during the festival. 9. Choosing Sukkot instead of Christmas — 10:27–11:40 Vaughn explains why his family celebrates Tabernacles rather than Santa Claus and Christmas. He teaches that the sukkah points toward Yeshua's return and the government of the coming kingdom. He says the family will give gifts during the feast. He criticizes December 25 and its alleged associations with ancient pagan worship. 10. Messiah's birth and teaching the children — 11:40–12:18 Vaughn states his belief that Yeshua was born during Tabernacles. He refers to the birth of John the Baptist and Zechariah's priestly service as evidence, without developing the full chronology. He encourages parents to teach their children what he considers the biblical meaning of the feast. He compares festival gift-giving with the gifts presented to Yeshua by the wise men. 11. The Last Great Day and closing invitation — 12:18–12:57 Vaughn mentions the eighth-day festival, also called the Last Great Day. He says that its prophetic meaning will be explained at a future Feast of Tabernacles gathering in Peru, Indiana. He closes by restating the reason his family has exchanged Santa Claus traditions for the sukkah.
