Part 20 - THE MAZZAROTH - Leo The Lion (part 6)

We're ending, hopefully this week, hopefully we're ending the Mazaroth series with Leo the Lion. I'm going to try my best today to fly through this material so that we can end this series. Why do I have to end it? Because the new year is here. Now I've got to start teaching you over the next three to four weeks the calendar and I've got to start teaching you about the new year and I've got to start getting you ready for Passover. So the next few weeks, starting after this class, we will go into establishing you in our calendar. I believe that one of the greatest revelations this ministry has is our calendar and we need to all come to a better understanding of it, detailed, where you can live it and know you're living the right one. There are several calendars out there. You need to know why we have chosen this calendar. Also, is Mama Dot here today? Mama Dot, are you on the line? She said she was going to a funeral. Oh, okay. All right. So there was a situation, I've still not seen the conversation, where someoneconfronted Sister Dot publicly about our belief concerning the person of Yahshua and I believe that may have gotten heated or testy and the lady that she was speaking with is a former friend of this ministry, a minister, and I just want to say this to every one of you. The next time someone wants to challenge you on what we believe about the person of Yahshua,here's something you need to ask them and this, every time I ask this question, it shuts down any debater that chooses to debate me about the person of Yahshua. As a matter of fact, a pastor that is very influential on YouTube asked me for a private Zoom meeting several weeks ago. Why? Because one of our members was attending one of his meetings and this conversation came up about the person of Yahshua. And I asked that minister, when we had our conversation, this one question that I ask everybody that makes a big deal and they just want to act like you're walking in heresy and, pardon me, I'm looking for scriptures. The reason I'm, thank you, Lord, give me one second. Okay, anyway, so I always ask this one question and it's real simple. What do you have to believe to have eternal life? What do you have to believe? Do you have to understand the Trinity or the lack thereof? Do you have to claim that Yahshua is his own father?What is required in the scriptures for us to have eternal life? Now, I always pause and I make them answer me. I will not go a step further and I just wait. There is normally what you're hearing right now, silence, because we have made a litmus test for salvation that's not in the Bible. You have to believe that Yahweh sent his Son to die for your sins. The Bible said, he that believeth on me as the Son of God. It don't say you got to believe I'm anything else but that. He that believeth on him that sent me hath eternal life. Now, once they answer that question, if they can, I look at them and I say, now, where's the heresy that you're talking about? Because heresy has to do with eternal life. And according to God's word, as long as I believe that Yahshua is the Son of Yahweh, I have eternal life. Case dismissed. Thank you. Next subject. That's it, folks. That's it. You don't have to believe he's Superman. You ain't got to believe he's Wonder Woman. You ain't got to believe he's Yahweh in the flesh. You ain't got to believe any of that to be saved. The Bible said, he that believeth on him that sent me, Yahweh, and that I am his Son, hath eternal life. Rest of the arguments, you can shut them down. Don't let them call you a heretic when you'reobeying the scriptures. How many of you in this room believe Yahshua is the Son of Yahweh? Well, congratulations. Hallelujah. Then shut them all down. Shut them all down. Shut it down. Ma'am, I believe what the Bible says, and I don't have to believe anything else to be saved. Amen. Amen. You ain't got to pass no oneness or trinity test to be saved. Do you hear me? Now, however, if you believe in the trinity, you are in danger, and here's why. Because now, trinity or oneness, both sides of the same coin, now you're in danger of having a false god in the wrong place. All right? So, in the trinity, you make three gods, and you can't do that. The Shema, hero Israel. Yahweh is one. That's all you can have. Now, if you go to the other side, you'll turn a man into Yahweh. See, listen, folks. You better be careful. You've got the truth, and you can stand on it. I promise you, you can stand on this truth. I promise you that. All you've got to believe is that in Him that sent me, and I think everyone here believes in Him that sent Yahshua, and you must believe that I am the one that He sent, and you have eternal life. Evangelist Edekwit, go right ahead. Pastor, I just wanted to ask, because I'm going to be finishing a project up in March, which is the songs that I write and that I had written, and one of the titles of the song was Just Believe in Him, and the words coming from Babylonian Christianity was believe in Jesus, believe in Yahshua, believe in Yahshua, but now I'm going from what you just said, I'm going to change the words, just believe in Him, speaking about Yahweh, just as my song Dear, it was called Dear God before is called now Dear Yahweh. It's a prayer to Yahweh. I'm trying to create this message called Babylon Interrupted, which is what I'm going to put out into the Christian radio stations, but I don't know if they'll ever play any of the songs, but it's our message, and I just want you to know about that. And we'll be praying that they do play it. Yes. Elder Edekwit, do you have a, Elder Morgan, grab a, read the scripture, John 5 24 for everybody while I go to the Strang family. Brother and sister Strang. It was just funny because this morning I was just in John 6 and 7 on this very subject, and I was telling my husband, I said, my goodness, these Jews, they just keep asking him questions, but they're murmuring. Are they really hungry for answers, or are they murmuring? Come on now. I was just having this discussion. I said, oh my goodness, what are you, are you just asking these questions to murmur something, or are you asking because you are hungry? And I'm not going to still feed it. That's good. Sister Tabitha, so many people are just murmuring. You're right. They would ask questions of Yahshua not to get an answer, but to get a response. Let everybody hear what I just said. They didn't want an answer, they wanted a response. It's murmuring. Good, good point, Sister Tabitha. Elder Morgan, read John 5 24 for the whole class real quick, and everybody listen carefully. Barely, barely, I say unto you, he that heareth my word and believeth on him that sent me hath everlasting life and shall not come into condemnation, but is passed from death unto life. Still listening for a trinity or a oneness debate in that verse, and I'm not finding it. All I hear is he that believeth on him that sent me hath eternal life. It don't say you got to believe I am he that sent me. Come on now. It don't say you got to believe that I am he that sent me. Brothers and sisters, the Bible said they took Yahshua to the temple to present him to Yahweh. So were they taking Yahweh to present to Yahweh? Come on, folks. I think it makes sense. I think Sister Judy Colson was in that debate, and her and Mama Dot. I want to tell all of y'all, if you want to shut them all down, ask them to show you in the Bible what you must believe about the Godhead to be saved. And it ain't got nothing to do with Trinity or the opposite of Trinity. It's got to do with what this ministry teaches, that the Father sent his Son. If you believe that, then leave those things alone. I promise you, you got eternal life. You're going to be all right. Amen. And that was not today's lesson, but I had to deal with that little devil. Go ahead, Sister Glyndon. Sister Judy, go ahead. The truth will set you free. It's just so simple. It's so simple. And listen, I heard an old saying, it's really simple, stupid. I mean, in other words, it's just simple. Just be it. Listen, what happens, we have created these doctrines on the Godhead that are not, they're not even concerning your salvation at all. So folks, there's the truth. I'm not going to teach on that today, but I could. I wished I had time. Hey, Grandma Ruffy, good to see you today. Brother Eric Blackman, good to have you back in class. I hadn't seen you. And Brother Matthew Pasch is having to leave early. We'll sure miss you. Let's go to the book of Leviticus. Let's start today's lesson, which is the final teaching on Leo the Lion. As you know, Leo the Lion represents the coming kingdom of Yahweh to planet earth. And today there is a feast that we celebrate every year about Leo the Lion, and it is the Feast of Tabernacles. It's every single year. And today, I want to help you understand this Feast of Tabernacles and why it relates to the millennial reign and why you must become a celebrator. Now, I want to give you a caution for those of you that is leaving Christianity and coming into the house of Israel. Be very careful. When you begin to celebrate the holy festivals, the moment they become just a religious practice is the moment they lose their efficacy. Okay? The moment you go from, oh, Tabernacles is in October, to now don't forget we got to do Tabernacles in October. The moment that happens, might as well quit keeping them. Okay? These are not to be paganized by religion. These are the most wonderful three events of your year. Disney World don't compare. Even Gatlinburg don't compare, unless we're doing Tabernacles in Gatlinburg, which that's a possibility real soon. But nothing compares, especially Disney World, by God, but nothing compares. And this must become your annual drive that nothing will stop you from being there. Nothing. Think about this. If nothing will stop you, how many of you have said in this room, nothing's going to stop me from going to heaven? Well, that's before you came to this ministry. Nothing's going to stop me from going into the kingdom. Well, we'll find out, because if anything can stop you from the feast, now, except for physical impairment. But if anything can stop you from the feast, stop you from the kingdom, because the feast are the shadows of the kingdom. If you can't show up for the feast, I hardly doubt you'll show up for the kingdom. Okay? So always keep that in mind as you become a feast keeper, that you're not doing it out of religion. But out of relationship with your Father in heaven. Amen. We are not a religious people here at all. We don't want nothing to do with religion. We want to develop such a relationship with our heavenly Father that His feast days are our delight. Amen. All right. Leviticus 23. Go ahead, Sister Renee. Your hand's up. I can't hear you, Sister Renee. Go. There are extenuating circumstances for some. Absolutely. And I've already covered that many, many, many times. Yes, ma'am. I do understand that. I do understand that. This is for those that don't have those extenuating circumstances. I wish I didn't. I wish I didn't. Thank you. Well, the Father knows, darling. Thank you. No, you're under the authority of your husband, and we all understand that. Bless you. Thank you. You're more than welcome, darling. We love you very much. And I do pray for you every day that the Father would help you with those extenuating circumstances. Good morning, Sister Diana Carter. I see you out there today. Good to see you. You look like you're in Florida to me. That's beautiful. Amen. Go ahead and read, Elder Morgan. Let's start at verse number 27 of Leviticus 23. Verse 27? Yes, sir. Also, on the tenth day of the seventh month, there shall be a day of atonement. All right. When does the seventh month begin? That is on the day of trumpets or shouting. That is the seventh month. Remember, all of these holy festivals, there are seven of them. Four of them happen in the seventh month. Read. It shall be a holy convocation unto you. Now, what is it? Now, this is important. What is this holy festival? Every one of them are holy convocations. What does that mean? What does that mean? A convocation is a gathering, physical, in person, a physical gathering. They did not have Zoom when the Father wrote these words, okay? What they intended was a holy physical gathering of the people. So when the holy days roll around, the reason you load up your RVs, the reason you get on a plane, the reason you get behind a wheel is because you're obeying this holy convocation command. It's not just a day to sit at home and say, oh, today's the day of tabernacles. Thank you, Lord, for this day. No, you've disobeyed the commandment. It's a holy convocation that you have set money aside for all year long, that you have prepared for. It is a holy church service is what it is. Amen. Read, Elder. And ye shall afflict your souls and offer an offering made by fire unto Yahweh. Now, I want to address Sister Judy Coulson. She says, technically, it was the man that went up to Jerusalem. Many times that was true, Sister Judy, because of the dangers of travel and all the women in those days were pregnant pretty much all the days of their life in their mid-prime. But the man is the head of the home. So as long as the man was there, then the wife and the children are there. Okay. However, in our time, we don't have those difficulties. We don't have those wildernesses to walk through. So this, if the man is there, the wife is automatically there. That is true. Go right ahead. Now, let's pick up at verse 33, Elder. And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, The fifteenth day of the seventh month shall be a feast of tabernacles for seven days unto Yahweh. Okay. Now, in verse 27 is the day of atonement. Five days after atonement begins a seven-day festival. Verse 33 said, You are to keep it unto Yahweh. Or do you know what that means? You are to keep it because you love Yahweh. Next verse. On the first day shall be a holy convocation. Ye shall do no servile work therein. Now you know why at the Feast of Tabernacles we always make sure to start our event in the evening after the sun sets of the day that we all arrive. Why is that? That is the only day out of the whole week that we are required to have a holy convocation. The others we just do because we're there. But that first day is a high Sabbath. You're to do no work first day of tabernacles. All right. Read, let's see, was that verse 34? 35. All right. Now let's go to the book of Deuteronomy chapter 16, verse 13 through verse 15. And let's read. Thou shalt observe the Feast of Tabernacles seven days. How long do we observe the Feast of Tabernacles? Seven days. Now what if you only observe it for six days? Not observing it. What if you observe it for five days? Not observing it. Seven days. Read. After that thou hast gathered in the corn and the wine. Now what is this? This is a celebration of the what? The corn and the what? The wine. This is a harvest celebration. Now you might know why last year when you came to Tabernacles we had corn stalks everywhere. We had hay everywhere. We had fruit everywhere. This is a harvest celebration. All right. This was the original Thanksgiving. As a matter of fact, when the founding fathers came here the Indians were celebrating Tabernacles and we renamed it Thanksgiving. So the Indians all believed in Yahweh. We have found their inscriptions. We believe they're part of the Lost Tribes and that they were holding this land for the rest of their brothers to get over here. And so ladies and gentlemen, it is a harvest celebration. Read. And thou shalt rejoice in thy feast, thou and thy son and thy daughter and thy man. Read that again. I missed it. You shall do what? Thou shalt rejoice in thy feast. Now hold on. We should just keep the feast? No, sir. Rejoice. Don't you ever question again why I make everybody dance at the holy festivals. Amen. Hallelujah. Okay. I obey the scriptures. You think I'm up there dancing because I'm skinny and I feel likedancing? Maybe I barely walk, much less dance. You know why I do it? The Bible tells me so. Rejoice. Have you ever been to any kind of a rejoicing event where what's the first thing they start doing at a crawfish bowl? What's the first thing they start doing at a birthday party? What's the first thing they start doing at a wedding? Everybody starts dancing. Yeah, every time. That's what I love. Go ahead, Sister Brody. That's what I love about this ministry. This message is that we're dancing, we're rejoicing, and it is wonderful. It's just so different than what I've been through in the past. You know why? Because Yahweh said the moment you quit dancing, you'll turn this into religion. For example, do you know that the Bible never really tells you to keep the Sabbath day holy? It tells you to celebrate my Sabbath. If you have not celebrated the Sabbath, celebrated it, you didn't keep it right. It's a celebration. Everybody dance now. That's what it is, folks. That's going to become one of our new praise and worship songs. Hallelujah. Let me tell Brother Nash to get it together. Everybody dance now. That's what it is. Hallelujah. It's a celebration. The Father don't want you. You know what He's saying right there? Don't even come if you're going to sit on a seat with your hands folded. Just look. Don't even come because, well, I came, but that wasn't all of the commandment. You got to do it for seven days. If you do it for six, you might as well not have done it. And then if you don't celebrate when you come, might as well just don't come. Oh, that's why I do come. It's a celebration. Sister Jan Meadows. No, people can't even lift up holy hands. When Israel prays, when Israel rejoices, they lift up holy hands. If you can't lift up holy hands, you're not going to dance. Sister Jan, you are so right. That's why at this ministry, go out to dinner with us and be in a restaurant and watch the restaurant because when we pray over our meals, nobody bows their head. Nobody closes their hands. We all throw our hands, the Bible said, lifting up holy hands when you pray. We do it at our church. When we pray over our meals, hands go up all over the table because that is so true. The minute you lose your celebration is the moment you might as well go back to the Catholic church and celebrate the liturgy because that's all you're doing here. You've created another liturgy. That's it. It is a royal celebration and folks, I have desperately tried. I'll be honest with you. Of all the Hebrew Roots ministries that I watch and all of the teachers that are great, I do not see this celebration that we have at First Harvest Ministries. It is a unique, we're very unique in that, that every service is a high celebration. Listen, church sometimes so overwhelmed that the last thing I feel like doing is celebrating, but I'll make you a promise. The moment you start to celebrate him, you'll feel him celebrating you. I give you that promise today. Continue, Elder. Let's go to verse number, let's read through 15. Thou shalt rejoice in thy feast, thou thy son, thy daughter, thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and the Levite, the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow that are within thy gates. Seven days shalt thou keep a solemn feast unto Yahweh thy God in the place which the Lord shall choose, because the Lord Yahweh thy God shall bless thee in all thine increase and in all thy works of thy hands. Therefore thou shalt surely rejoice. You shall surely what? Rejoice. You shall rejoice. It's all about rejoicing. If you didn't rejoice, and I can promise you Brother Vaughnville, how do I rejoice, darling? The Bible always, every Bible question has a Bible answer. Always remember that, okay? Always. So if you want your Bible answer, the Psalmist David wrote it for you. Psalms 150, he wrote it for you, how to rejoice. And it don't look like the Baptist church you came out of. It don't look like the Catholic church. It looks like Israel. Even if you go to the Wailing Wall today, do you, if you want to see dancing and rejoicing, go to the Wailing Wall. They dance for hours. They understand this. The church doesn't. All right. Now, let's go to verse 41. And before you read verse 41 in Leviticus chapter 23, I want to address something that a lot of people will come at you with. That verse just said that we have to keep the feast at the place that Yahweh chooses. Now, we know that that was Jerusalem. And we know that that was where the temple was. That's they had to come to. The Father said we are to celebrate the feast where He chooses to place His name or His authority. Remember, anything done in His name is done in His authority, okay? He placed His name among His people in the temple in Jerusalem. That temple is destroyed. That temple was done away with. The veil was rent. At that moment, the Father began building a third temple. He has placed His name on His third temple. And that's why He said you must be baptized in the name. Why? Because He's placing His name on His temple. And therefore, wherever two or three of that temple have gathered together in my name, that's where I have placed my name. Amen. So don't let the messianics mess you up with that, okay? All right, read verse 41. Ye shall keep it a feast unto Yahweh seven days in the year. It shall be a statute forever in your generations. You shall celebrate it forever. Forever, okay. Now we can stop there because that's the point I wanted to make. This shall be kept forever. Now forever does not mean eternal. Forever can mean for a set time. Well, when is the set time? We were taught that when Yahshua came, He fulfilled these feasts. And therefore, it was over. But there's a great problem with that teaching because nowhere did Yahshua fulfill any of the festivals, none of them, not even Passover. Now that's a teaching you won't hear anywhere but this ministry. Brother Vaughn, of course, He fulfilled Passover. He was the Passover lamb. Brothers and sisters, Passover was not about the lamb. Passover was about passing over from death to life. The lamb, do you think the lamb is what Passover was? No, the lamb provided the way for you to pass over. But nobody is going to pass over from death to life until the resurrection. And you will sit down with Yahshua in His Father's kingdom and He said at the last supper, I will not drink this cup with you tonight. Why? Because it's not time to fulfill it yet. I will drink this cup with you at the marriage supper in my Father's kingdom and then Passover will be fulfilled. Hallelujah, hallelujah. Churches teach you Jesus fulfilled the Passover. No, He did not. He provided the way for Passover to be fulfilled. Snackles is not fulfilled, so we keep it until it is. Amen. Sister Carmen, go right ahead. Sister Carmen. Hello, Sister Carmen. Hi, how are you doing? So, I know the way we used to explain it was Jesus created a bridge between us and Yahweh. Right. And have you walked across that bridge yet? Absolutely. Really? You've seen Him? Oh, wait, go ahead. I can't hear you. Pastor, we can't hear you. Okay, go ahead, Sister Carmen. Now, when do you cross? When do you? The Bible said there'll come a day when you will see your Father face to face. You'll see Him eye to eye. That's when you cross the bridge. You're walking the bridge right now. See, that goes back to the lives of the Christian church that were saved right now. Amen. If anybody's saved, then you have fallen for great deception because my Bible teaches me that he that endures to the end, he that walks all the way across that bridge will be saved. And we're walking that journey every day, folks. As long as you stay on that bridge, you're as good as saved already, but we're not there. Amen. All right, Elder, let's pick up now. I want to read Levitic, I'm sorry, the book of Exodus chapter 23 and verse 16. Exodus 23 and 16. In the feast of harvest, the first fruits of thy labors, which thou hast sown in the field, and the feast of ingathering, which is in the end of the year, when thou hast gathered in thy labors out of the field. All right, Sister Jan Meadows, how many harvests are we seeing in this verse? Three. All right. Now, this is important. Notice the name of these feasts have changed all of a sudden. Now it's no longer Pentecost and it's no longer tabernacles. Now they're called the feast ofingatherings. Keep that in your mind. These feasts are prophetic pictures of separate ingatherings or separate harvest. Ministry is what? First harvest or first gathering. All right. The early harvest in this verse is talking about Pentecost. This harvest here is the feast of tabernacles. Read that verse again so everybody now understands what you're reading. Verse 16. In the feast of the harvest, the first fruits of thy labors, which thou hast sown in the field, and the feast of the ingathering, which is in the end of the year, when thou hast gathered in thy labors out of the field. Many gatherings here. Here we have two. Now, this is not the grape harvest that comes in the second resurrection. This is the two harvest, the first harvest, the second harvest. This is important because the Christian church is clueless of two harvests. If you don't believe it, go listen to them preach. What are they in a hurry to do? To win the lost. Yes. To gather in the harvest. They call it the end time harvest. There is no end time harvest. There is a first harvest that's being gathered in the end time. Amen. As you begin to keep these feasts, if you don't know what I'm teaching you right now, they become religion to you. Amen. Resurrection. If you understand that the reason you celebrate the feast is that you're celebrating yourself, you're gathering in. When you celebrate the feast, you're celebrating, brothers and sisters, your own self, your salvation. That's why you must keep the feast or you'll fall into Christianity. Listen to me. If you ever want to go back to Christianity, here's how you do it. The day you lose your love of the Sabbath day and the day you lose your love of the holy festivals, you will make your way back to Rome. Why? They don't know anything that you know today. They're clueless of these things. They don't celebrate two harvests. They believe in one because according to them, anyone that doesn't make it into this first harvestall gets put in a basket and thrown where? Hell. Hell. Numbers don't mean anything to them. Numbers mean nothing. You're right about that, but brothers and sisters, you've got to hear melast night. I preached about hell a little bit. You need to go back and listen to that. All right. Let's pick up now in Exodus 34 verse 22. Exodus chapter 34 verse 22. And thou shalt observe the feast of wheat of the first fruits of the wheat harvest and the feast of in-gathering at the year's end. So in October, we're going to do that. We're also going to do it in June. Amen. But now remember, in October, we're not celebrating the first harvest in October. We're celebrating the last. That's right, Sister Brody. We're celebrating the millennial harvest. That's your lost loved ones. That's your family members. That's all those that are not, their eyes are not open now. So when you come in October, you're coming to celebrate your saved family. You get that? When you come in October, you're coming to celebrate all the ones that's making fun of you the day they quit making fun of you. You're coming to celebrate that. You're coming to dance over their salvation. Oh hallelujah. We have got to get more serious about these things. We've got to understand it. Amen. Now it's to be a time of great rejoicing and great thanksgiving for Yahweh's blessings. Now let's go to Leviticus 23 and 34. I know we've already read it, but I want to read this one more time. This is very important. Out of all the Feast of Israel, only two have this requirement read. Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, The fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the Feast of Tabernacles for seven days unto Yahweh. Seven days. Why seven days? Why? In other words, Passover, Pentecost, all these are only one days, two days, what have you and what not. But these feasts last for seven days. Why? Because it proves to us that the gathering of the final harvest is not going to be a quick work. It's going to take a process of time. Now the first harvest is celebrated in a single day. The day of Pentecost. First fruit. That's when we celebrate you and I. That's a one-day celebration. Do you know why? It ought to tell you everything you need to know, because that harvest is real small. Okay. The first harvest gets a one-day celebration. One day. You know why? One, small, just a few of us. But the millennial harvest gets a seven-day celebration. Why? Because that harvest is going to take a lot longer to gather in than the first harvest did. As a matter of fact, it's going to take about a thousand years to get all of them converted over and everybody saved. It's going to be a marvelous, marvelous time. Now let's go and I've already read that verse. I'm not going to read that again, just to reiterate the point. Let's go to the book of 1 Kings now,chapter 12, verse 32 through verse 33. Now for you to understand this verse, allow me to teachyou real quick. This is right after the 12 tribes of Israel have had a church split. Now the reason they had a church split was over money. Somebody say always. Always. Always. Always. The more things change, the more they what? They stay the same. It's always the money, folks. Always. People start wondering about the money. And here is what happened in the house of Israel. They wanted to know about the money. They felt like the king, their leader, the one Yahweh anointed over them, needed their help in financial matters. So they went to him and they said, listen, oh king, you know, we've got problems with the money. And so when the king did not bow down to them, the rebellious part of the church split away in tribes. They became the lost tribes of Israel. They're still lost today because they couldn't leave God's ordained authority alone. Hold on. Let me look. I'm missing. Is the Faulkner's in class today? I didn't see the Faulkner girls. No, they're not here today, pastor. Okay. All right. Okay. I was fixing to say something to them. All right. Now, this is important that we understand that whenever these tribes split away, they still loved God. I want you to hear what I'm teaching you now. These lost tribes never intended to leave God. They were just going to leave the king that God put over them. They were just going to leave the leader that Yahweh had tied them with, not leaving God. Oh no, we love this message. We just have a problem with the messenger. Anything sounding familiar? All right. That's all I'm going to ask you. So when they got over here with the king and they separated and split the church, they wanted to keep the feast and the Sabbath day. And as a matter of fact, they love God. They love God so much. They wanted to build a temple just like the one in Jerusalem. And they wanted to keep the feast. King Rehoboam, Solomon's son. This is the rightful king. I'm sorry. King Jeroboam. Now who was ruling in Jerusalem was who? Rehoboam, the rightful king of Israel. They could not submit to his authority. So they found them a leader, sister, whoever. Come on. Come on, pastor. Anyway, they found them a leader, sister, whoever. And I've tried not to call names. Sister, whoever. They wanted a woman to rule over them. Come on. Instead of a strong man, they wanted a woman that would rule over them. The Bible said, Israel, why are you letting women rule over you? They wanted a woman to rule over them. And they just wanted prophecy. And let's get rid of the king. And we're going to go start our own church. And brothers and sisters, this is important that you understand the danger of this. Notice that they did not, Elder Morgan, they were not trying to leave the truth. They were not trying to leave. They were not rebelling against God. They were rebelling against God's authority. And when they did it, here's the results. Here's their new leader that's ready to compromise just a little bit. He starts going back to Babylon, even changing his Godhead views. Even changing his views on women pastors and changing his views on these truths that we've taught you. But not God now. He still loves this message. But once you start allowing compromise, here's the results. Let's read them. Verse 32 through verse 33. And Jeroboam ordained a feast in the eighth month. Here we go. Here we go. The new pastor, the new pastor says we are not going to leave the message. Leave truth. We're not leaving Yahweh. We move into Samaria. And we still going to celebrate these. We're going to do our own thing for Passover, I've been told.Bye-bye-bye. Bunch of devils. We're going to do our own thing. We're just moving over here. We still love truth. We're going to move over here and do our own thing. So here's the king, a fake king, I might add. Yes, sir. Just like Joe Biden. He may be sitting on a throne, but it's no better than a toilet. Come on. Because God didn't put him on it. Jeroboam was the legitimate leader of Yahweh's people. Jeroboam said, folks, follow me. We will not leave the feast days. We won't leave the Sabbath days. But now all we're going to do is compromise a little. Amen. We're going to have a feast, but when were they going to do it, Elder Morgan? In the eighth month. Wait, did you say in the eighth month? Eighth month. I thought the feast had to be in the seventh month. Come on. Yahweh said it. They wanted a new beginning, the number eight. Yes. They wanted a new beginning. So they decide with no authority from Torah at all, no authority from the word, they decide they're still going to keep this message, but they're just going to move it a little more convenient time so that they don't, they're not, so everybody, it's not so noticeable that they're imitating the ministry they just left anyway. So they're going to set up their own little thing, but now we're not, we're not going to let the ladies wear white on Passover. Everybody will think they'll know where we came from. So we're going to do our own thing over here on the eighth month. Read. On the 15th day of the month, like. Now I thought, wait, on the 15th day, I, see, we're still, we're still on the right day. Yeah. We just moved to the eighth month. Yeah. Read. Like unto the feast that is in Judah. Oh, what did you just say? Like. Like unto the. Ah, yeah. We're, we're going to do a feast like. Yeah. The one that Yahweh commanded as, you know, how some of you do when you keep the Sabbathsort of like the one in the Torah called Sunday. It's called Sunday. Amen. Sister Janelle Brown, go right ahead. Well, it reminds me of Daniel 725, which is the Antichrist will attempt to change the holy times. It was then the times there means the holy appointed times, not, not just seasons like fall, winter, spring to wear out the saints. Yeah. Where is that? Yeah. And you know, sister Janelle, that spirit was working right here with Jeroboam. Was it not already? Already. Already they've changed it. But now notice sister Janelle, they're not changing it much. I mean, they didn't go from the seventh month to the first month. Nobody will notice. God won't even notice. Come on, come on, come on, come on. He knows the intent of our heart, doesn't he? Wow. Wow. Wow. By the way, sister Janelle, you look smashingly beautiful today. Yeah. You got your hair fixed and your lipstick on. Yeah. I got it all puffed up. I love it. Now that's not leavened. My hair is not leavened. No, it's not puffed up. It's just a little lifted. That's all. Yeah. So is mine, darling. Mine's a little lifted. Now, brother Brown back there, he ain't got much to lift, but that's all right. I got mine on my chin. Amen. There you go. Just move it around. Move it to your chin. Amen. I appreciate the Browns. They are precious gifts in the body, that's for sure. But she said something that is so true. What would have happened, do y'all think, if Jerrod Bowen would have said, you know what, we're going to have the feast in the first month? I believe he might have had a little rebellion, a little mutiny, because that would have been a drastic change. But just a little bit. Listen, folks, your path back to Christianity starts with just a little bit. That's all, just a little. Yeah. As far as not the day of small beginnings. There you go, my sister. Don't despise the day of small beginnings. That's right. That is so good. Small beginnings. That's where it begins. Every beginning begins small. That a preach. I could preach the devil out of that right there all day long. Your journey back to Babylon will not come from a major decision. It will come from a minor distraction. That's right. Come on, pastor, preach it. Minor distraction. A minor listening against the truth of Yahweh's word. Hallelujah. All right. Read, Elder. And he offered upon the altar, so did he in Bethel, sacrificing unto the calves that he had made. And he placed in Bethel the priest of the high places which he had made. So he offered upon the altar which he had made in Bethel the fifteenth day of the eighth month,even in the month which he had devised of his own mind. Which he had devised of his own mind.It did not come from Torah. You're a bunch of he, he, he. Come on, brother. And you know what else, Elder? Notice what he was doing at that feast. Having good church. Amen. Amen. They are sacrificing and animals. They are worshiping Yahweh. Oh, brother Vaughn, God knows their heart. He sure does. Amen. Yes, he does. Because he just says he was doing it by the devising of his own heart. Doing it his way instead of Yah's way. Thank you, my friend. This is so important. Sister Jan Meadows, Sister Erin, whoever it is. No, Erin was reminding me that all of this was prophesied, if you go a little bit before, in first Kings 11, by the prophet Ahijah, who is from Shiloh. Shiloh is a symbol of Yeshua, right? Right. And he prophesied first to Jeroboam that the kingdom would be divided. And Jeroboam didn't listen and went ahead and did that. So then in chapter 14, he comes back to Jeroboam's wife and prophesied to her that Jeroboam will die and the destruction of the house of Jeroboam will come and that Israel will fall into captivity. So all of this was a fulfillment of prophecy. What's that scripture? It's first Kings 11, 28 to 40. It would do you all well to study that. Everyone needs to study those verses and see, don't take prophecy lightly this is, I knew that already. I just didn't remember to put it in this lesson, but let'severybody put that in your notes one more time, sister. It's first Kings 11, 28 to 40. And then the next part of the prophecy is first Kings 14, six through 16. At the time that prophecy was given sister Jan, Israel could not fathom that the church would split. That was, that was no way this ministry is too strong. This is Solomon's son. This is the legitimate King. No, one's going to go against God's authority. It didn't take long, did it? The prophet talked about how he's, he was doing this, saving Israel for the sake of David. Hallelujah. Oh my, my. Oh, you know what? We got a word last night. I just remembered it, a prophetic word from Yahweh at the pulpit when he talked about the pure waters of this ministry. And he's talked about the waves that sends them out and brings them in. And he called it wave land. And he said to us in that prophecy that think not, I don't know the exact words, but I need to clip it and play it. Think not or ask not why did I allow this? I was purifying the waters so that the waves could go forth from this land, wave land across the globe. And he's purified. And that's what you just said. He purified the waters for those that had backsliding in their hearts for David's sake, that the ministry in Jerusalem would be pure before Yahweh. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. It breaks my heart. It breaks my heart when we lose anybody. But when you have this understanding, you bid them farewell with the love of God. And then you thank God that he is purifying the waters. Because brothers and sisters, I had no idea the people that said they were my friends that were having Zoom meetings against me. I didn't even know these things. But when the father revealed it, when the father revealed it and washed them out, I have no anger in my heart. Do you not understand? There's not one. You don't have the power to make me not like you or love you. I still love every one of them. I just rejoice. And I thank Yahweh that they have found their way back to the tear patch. I thank God that he is keeping the waters pure. We love everybody, but we love truth more. As you said last night, Pastor, count to 12. That number 12. Come on, sister. Hallelujah. It is so true. So, so, so true. Now, I want to fast forward to the New Testament. And I'm trying my best to be done by 12 today for you guys. Let's go now to the book of John, chapter 7 and verse 2. I'll tell you what I'd like to do before we go there. Pardon me. Let's go to the book of Nehemiah, chapter 8, verse 17 through verse 18. And I want to show you what happened when the Jewish people were taken into Babylonian captivity and they were not allowed to keep the feast. I want to show you what happened when the feast was revealed back to them or restored back to them. Now, keep in mind, this is a picture of you. You were in Babylonian captivity, were you not? You were either in Pentecostal captivity, charismatic captivity, Baptist captivity, Catholic captivity, whatever non-denominational captivity, because there's a new denomination called non-denominational. Anyway, it's its own denomination. Trust me. What denomination are you? I'm non-denominational. That, that, that means that's my denomination. All right. So, as we were all bound, when, when we came back to the feast, this must, this is a picture of us. Let's read it. Nehemiah, chapter 8, verse 17 through verse 18. And all the congregation of them that were come, come again out of the captivity made booths and said, what's the first thing they did when they came out of captivity? The first thing. What about when they came out of Egypt? What's the first thing they did? They kept the Sabbath. These, when they come out of captivity, the first thing they did was started building booths for the Feast of Tabernacles. Keep reading. And sat under the booths. For since the days of Yeshua, Yeshua, the son of, of none, until that day had not the children of Israel done so. There was very great gladness. There was what kind of gladness? Very great gladness. Y'all think it looked like this? Celebration. No. No. Thank you, Lord. No. There was very great gladness that the feast had been restored to them because since the daysof Joshua or Yeshua, the son of none, they had not kept these feasts. But when it was restored tothem, they were booking their rooms. They were, there was great gladness for the restoration ofthese feasts. When you come out of Babylon, there'll be great gladness for the restoration of these feast days. Now let's skimmy over to St. John chapter 7 verse 2. Now, I want to show you that in the New Testament, they were still coming every year to keep this feast. John 7 and 2. Now the Jews, the Feast of Tabernacles was at hand. All right. The Feast of Tabernacles was at hand and so they're all coming to Jerusalem. Now read verse 8. Go ye up unto this feast. I go not up yet unto the feast, for my time is not yet full come. This is Yeshua telling his brothers and sisters, by the way, you are one of his brothers. Go up to this feast. Now, I always wondered why he didn't go at this particular time because this particular feast was a prophetic shadow of his coming. So by his not coming this time, he was giving a prophetic foreshadow that he was not coming this time as a shadow of the next time he will come. It was all a prophetic foreshadowing of I'm not going with you here. Why? Because my time to come to this feast is not now. This was after his baptism, after he came into those three years of his yearling lamb ministry. At that time, he said, I'm not coming. Why? Because this is the feast reserved for my coming. So therefore, by me not coming, I am teaching you the lesson that my time is not yet come. He was not talking about Calvary. He was talking about my time, the Lord of the Sabbath, a period of time called the seventh day. He went, but in secret. Say it again. Verse 10 says, that's the point. He wouldn't go publicly. Why? That's awesome. He wouldn't go publicly. He was making his prophetic statement. Of course he was there secretly. And he said every feast of tabernacles today, secretly. Amen. You can tell. Hallelujah. He comes secretly still, but there'll be a day when he will come to this feast publicly.My God from Zion. He will come publicly to the feast of tabernacles. But until then, he tells, now what does he tell his brothers and sisters? Y'all go publicly. I'll come privately. Read that verse again. Verse eight. Go ye up unto this feast. I go not up yet unto this feast, for my time is not yet fully come. Now read verse 10. But when his brethren were gone up, then went he also up unto the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret. Hallelujah. And he's been doing that for 2,000 years now. Now he didn't tell you to go secretly in some little zoom meeting. He told you to go publicly to keep the feast. I'll come. The world won't even know I'm there with y'all. Ain't nobody hearing me right now. You got to have an ear to hear this. You got to have an ear. When you come to the rehearsal, nobody will even know the bridegroom is there with you, but I make you a promise. If you come, I'll come. Great miracles happen at the feast that we don't even know about sometimes for years later. There is a secret place called the feast. It's the king's table. We read about in Song of Solomonlast night. Miracles on the mountain. Now read verse 11, what they said. Then the Jews saw him at the feast and said, where is he? Come on now. The Jewish people knew something. What did they know? That he was a Torah keeper. They knew he was supposed to be there. They knew that Yahweh, Yahshua never broke his father's commandment. They knew if you want to catch him, he'll be at the feast. But he came in privately and to this day, the world is still not caught him because he comes privately. He comes secretly. The first time he came in a manger, the next time he returns publicly for the whole world. Go ahead, sister strange. I do look strange, but it's strange. Oh, I'm sorry. Strang. I'm sorry. Hey, here's what is just so crazy. I woke up this morning, pastor, and I put on my notes right here. This was at six o'clock. You can't make this stuff up. I said, ask pastor what it means here. Exactly what you're saying. Exactly what you're saying. Literally. I said, I on my notes, ask pastor what this whole thing meant. The brothers go on up. It's crazy. That's all. That's amazing, sister. He heard your prayer because that was not my intentions to speak about that today. As far as that, that particular verse goes, but ladies and gentlemen, his time was not yet. I want to come back to that. Remember the duality of scripture. Remember, there is a duality principle that flows through the statements of Christ. He was, yes, one of his times, but it's the, it's the shadow of from the earth, which he will also do during the millennial reign. When he said my time has not yet come. Of course, there's a reference there to Calvary, but there's a greater reference there to my timethat day would, what I do at Calvary will then be known before the whole world. What I really didat Mount Calvary. Now let's go to Matthew 28, 19 through 20. Some people say, well, pastor Vaughn, he was, he was only at the Feast of Tabernacles just because he was following a Jewish tradition, not because he was showing us an example of what to do. You know, that's the reason they say he went to the synagogue on the Sabbath, because that was Jewish tradition. He was just trying to reach the lost. Let's find out what the Bible says. Matthew 28, 19 through 20. Go ye therefore and teach all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost, teaching them to observe all things. Whosoever I have commanded you and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world or the age. Everybody talks about the baptism part, but they mix the next part, teach them to observe, teach them to do everything that you have seen me do, everything that I've told you,teach my example to everyone that you baptize. Otherwise you're baptizing them back into Babylon. If you baptize someone without teaching them right after, you have done them more harm than good. Let's read 1 Peter 2, verse 21. 1 Peter 2, verse 21. For even here unto were ye called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example that ye should follow his steps. It says what? His steps? You mean when he stepped into the Feast of Tabernacles? Amen. We follow his steps. I left you an example, he said. I left you an example. Just do it. You won't find one time in there where he was in church on Sunday. You won't find one time where he's celebrating Lent. You won't find one time where he's celebrating Christmas or Easter. So what example are you following? You won't find one time where he called himself Yahweh. Amen. Follow my example. You won't find it. See, that's all we do in this ministry. We try to teach you the example that he left us, the patterned son. If you've not watched my sermon called The Patterned Son, you need to go watch it. Follow this example, this pattern. Read 1 John chapter 2, verse 4 through verse 6. He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar. The truth is not in him. But whosoever keepeth his word in him barely is the love of Yahweh perfected. Hereby know we that we are in him. He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also to walk even as he walked. Wow, wow, wow, wow. Isn't that amazing? Somebody said I'm identified in Christ. Well, that if you are, then you must walk as he walked. And he didn't walk to no Christmas parties.He did walk to Passover. He did walk to tabernacles. He did. So if the love of God is in you, you'll walk as he walked. Amen. There it is. Let's go to the book of Hosea now. I'm going to prove to you something that is very important. When the millennial reign begins, when I tell you what I want you to do from now on, when you're talking to people about why you keep the holy days, I want you to ask them a question. Everybody listen closely. Ask one question. Say, you know what? Can you do me a quick favor? If they're making you feel this little, like you're some part of some backwood hillbilly cult that handles snakes, we ain't gotthat bad yet. But if we do, I'll let y'all know, okay? But here's the deal. When they start making you feel that low, mocking you, say, you know what? I'd love for you to do me a favor. Here's my Bible and say, no matter of fact, take yours. Would you point to me and show me all of your holidays that you keep in that Bible? Would you just, if you will do this for me, I promise you I will leave this cult that I'm in. That's all I want you to do. I just hear it. You want my Bible or you want yours. You may not like mine. It's called the book of Yahweh, but take yours. Find me your holidays. Give them the Bible and just sit there. Don't say another word. Let me teach you a trick. Okay. I'm going to teach you the tricks of the trade. I owned a car dealership for many years. Okay. Let me teach you how to win in a car deal. I sold thousands of cars. Learn when to shut up. Okay. I taught my staff how to sell cars. When you make an offer and slide it across the table, shut up because you're creating, it's the greatest sales technique in the world. You're creating a moment of tension and one or two people are fixing to lose. And if you open your mouth now, take the pressure off. I've been doing it all my sales life. Okay. Shut up and stare them in the eyes and just shake your head. Okay. The next person that talks will lose the Bible. Ask them to point to their verse and then shut up and then just look at them. In other words, you're saying, yes, I know you can't. I know. Now, at that point, say, now, if I can point to every one of my holidays in that Bible, would you still think I'm in a cult? Ladies and gentlemen, you're standing on a solid rock of truth. You have nothing to be ashamed of. Don't let them back you in a corner. You have the truth. Hear what I said. You have truth. You are solid. You cannot fall if you will stand on this truth. Let's go to Hosea chapter 12, verse eight through verse nine. And Ephraim said, yet I am become rich. I have found me out substance. In all my labors they shall find one iniquity in me that were sin. And that I am the Lord thy God Yahweh from the land of Egypt will yet make thee to dwell in tabernacles as in the days of the solemn feast. Now, when is this? In the millennial reign. I will call. I will make you. I need everybody. Brother Morgan, try to read that again, but let's read it with clarity and read that last verse, verse nine. This is the millennial reign. Ephraim is the Israelite tribes here. This is the lost tribe. This is the people of the world. Listen to what Yahshua is going to make them do in the millennium. Read. And I, that I am the Lord God from the land of Egypt will yet make thee to dwell in tabernacles as in the days of the solemn feast. I will make you dwell in tabernacles. Now, there is a group of people that he's already made you do it already. You're the first harvest. There's coming a day when everyone, everyone will keep the feast of tabernacles. Let's go to the book of Zechariah chapter 14 and verse nine. And the Lord shall be. Zechariah 14 and nine. And the Lord shall be king over all the earth. Hallelujah. In that day, shall there be one Lord and his name one. Read verse. Okay. Now reverse 16. Now, now we're talking about somebody say that day, that day, what day is that day? The seventh day. So let's rephrase that scripture and let's, let's tell you what it means on theSabbath day. I, the Lord will rule the whole earth. What does that mean? That means I don't rule it now. Go back and read it again and change the words. And the Lord shall be king over all the earth in the seventh day, the Sabbath day, there shall be one Lord and his name one. That means at this time there, that's not happening. The Lord of this earth is Hashatan. But that day is coming when he will be Lord of Lords and King of Kings. And that day will change the whole planet. However, he has a prototype right now. And that prototype is you. He's trying you out first. You know, anytime you're building a newproduct, you build the prototype first. You're the prototype because you're already keeping the feast. Reverse 16. And it shall come to pass that everyone that is left of all the nations, which come against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles. Everybody, everybody, even the Gentile nations, everyone will keep the feast. So here's the next question you ask the antagonist. You ask them, are you trying to go to heaven? Oh yeah, I'm gonna make it bless God. I'm gonna make it all the way. Good. Do you know what, what's going to be celebrated when you get there? Oh, I'm just going fishing in the rivers. All I know. Okay. I know. All right. Listen, do you know what they're going to celebrate when you get there? I promise you they're going to look at you like they know that. No, I don't say you're going to celebrate then what I'm celebrating now. I'm sorry. I beat you to it. Amen. Elder Baker, go right ahead. I didn't say anything. Well, it's sister Callie because I have a question. We're just double trouble right there. Hallelujah. Okay. Pastor on the script that elder Morgan just read on the book of Yahweh says that Yahweh will be king over all the earth. So I just want to make sure, because I know Joshua is the king of kings, but he says that he's Yahweh will be the king. Oh, here's the deal. Yeshua, Yeshua. Remember this is what people fail to forget and I'll pull the scripture up. It'll make it all make sense for you. Hang tight. All right. I don't know if you've ever heard of a vassal king, but a vassal king is a king in someone else's place. Okay. Let's go to first Corinthians chapter 15 and let's read here about the second resurrection and the first resurrection. Elder Morgan, let's start at verse 23, but every man in his own order, Christ, the first fruits afterward, they that are Christ's at his coming. Okay. Now hang tight. Remember that's a mistranslation. I've taught it many times. It should not say Christ, the first fruits. It should say the anointed first fruits. Now, why is that? The word Christ there is coming from the word Messiah. The word Messiah there is coming from the word anointed. The word Messiah is not Yeshua's last name. Okay. Yeshua, the Messiah. The Messiah is simply a designation that he is different from all the other Yeshua's in the world. You know, if you go to Mexico, there's a Yeshua on every corner, but this is Yeshua, the Messiah, the one that is anointed. There is a first fruit that is not like other people, even though they look like other people. They are the anointed set apart first fruits. They come up in the first resurrection. After that, then at Christ's coming, Christ, the first, afterwards, they that are at, that Christ at his coming, then cometh the end when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to Yahweh, even the father, after he has put down all rule, all authority, and all power. For Yeshua must reign, not eternally. There we go. Now, see this messes people up from my oneness church, big time. Yeshua must reign until his reign is over. Amen. Until he puts all enemies under his feet. And then once he has done that, go to verse 28,when all things have been subdued unto him, when does that happen? During the millennial reign. When he is king of kings, all things will be put under him. Then shall the son himself give up his kingship, if you will, and himself be subjected unto Yahweh that put all things under him that Yahweh may be all in all. If you want to mess up a oneness person, bring them to those six verses. Because Yeshua is king during the millennium, but above that king, he answers to the king. He is a vassal king to Yahweh. He rules on behalf of Yahweh, he rules for Yahweh, and he rules in the place of Yahweh. That's why he said, I come in my father's authority, or his name. I am here on his behalf. But there's coming a day when I have finished the millennial reign, when the day of the Lord is over, when the day of Yeshua is over, and together, after we've restored everything, you and I, the brothers of Yeshua, will turn around and deliver up to our father the earth that he created. It will be restored by the sons of Yahweh. Our ministry is a restoration. That's why you're called ministers of restoration. Right now, we restore people to Yahweh, but one day we will restore all people to Yahweh. Hallelujah. Oh, if you could ever get this truth deep down in your crawl, you would never crawl out of it, honey. Ever, ever, ever, ever, ever. Brother Marlon Hoover, go right ahead. Hallelujah. This would be something that you've been... Brother Marlon, it breaks my heart when I can't hear you speak, because you always have something so good to say. I'm so sorry. There we go. This would be like a proxy. Yes. From a father given to his son. Yes, sir. I picked up most of what you said. You're exactly right. Yeshua. Now, notice what the verse said in Zechariah that Brother Morgan just read. His name shall be one. Yes. I want everyone to know something. The name Yahshua is the name Yahweh as well. Okay? Because he said, I come in my father's name, Yahshua, Yahweh. Yah will be my savior. The name Yahshua is not a name. It is a sentence. It is a statement. It is a declaration encapsulated in a name. That's why you must be baptized in the name. Because if you're baptized in the titles, you have not yet taken on your father's name. When you're baptized in the name of the father, the son, and the Holy Spirit, that's a title. You have not yet been baptized in his name. Therefore, you're not of the name. Brother Audie, was you saying something? You popped up on my screen, Brother Audie. Okay. By the way, on Monday morning, we will mail out all of your financial statements that have requested one for your donations last year. If you've not requested one, contact Sister Janice immediately, and we'll mail you one out on Monday. Now, we had a computer glitch several months ago. My old laptop crashed, so we're asking everyone to verify the amount you have sent against what we have to make sure we're not missing anything, and those will go out Monday morning. All right, Brother Elder Morgan, I'm running out of time here quickly. I'd like to go to Zechariah. Was that 14 and 16? 14 and 9, and 14 and 16. Okay, now let's read Zechariah 14 and 18, and let's find out what will happen to anyone that refuses to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. And if the family of Egypt go not up and come not up that have no rain, there shall be the plague wherewith the Lord will smite the heathen that come not up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. So, anyone that knows to keep this feast and doesn't do it, you will experience the rod of iron. You will experience what happens to rebellion, and so what they're going to experience, you will experience now, because you're the prototype. You're the first harvest. Amen. Now, I want to go quickly as my time is slipping away, and I want to read to you in the book of Deuteronomy chapter 16, and I want to go to 14 and 15, and I want to point something out to you. Ready when you are, Pastor. Go ahead. And thou shalt rejoice in thy feast. Thou, thy son, thy daughter, thy manservant, thy maidservant, and to Levi. Now, hold tight realquick. I wanted to come back here for a reason. When Sister Judy Colson mentioned that only the man was required to go, let me clarify something there. That was only if the man was the only one able to go. The Father's intent is for it to be a family celebration. If you'll read that verse, you're to bring your wife, your children, anybody living in your house. Nobody stays home. Now, I realize we're living in a day where none of you control your houses anymore, but if you do, nobody stays home, okay? So, keep reading. The stranger and the fatherless and the widow that are within thy gates. Seven days shalt thoukeep a solemn peace unto Yahweh thy God in the place which the Lord shalt choose, because theLord thy God shall bless thee in all thine increase and in all thy works of thy hands. Therefore, thou shalt surely rejoice. Now, this was also the time of the year where you bring your greatest offering. You save up all year, and that's your biggest offering of the year that you give to the work. Now, brothers and sisters, I want you to notice what these verses say. It is to be a time of great rejoicing together. This is all about togetherness. When you come to the feast, you're not coming to stay in your cabin. You're not coming to do your own little thing. It is a together. We do this as one large family. We unite all of our little families into one large family, and we rejoice for seven days. Now, let me address something. Many people have asked me why we don't do this feast the entire seven or eight days. It's very simple. Many of you have not yet gotten used to this lifestyle. You've not saved up all year. You just cannot afford financially to stay eight full days. We get that. So, what we're doing this year is a view that you just can't make it. You must be there on the first day, or there's no need of coming. That's the High Holy Day. You're to stay seven, eight days, actually. I'll teach on that in another lesson about the eighth day. But what we've been doing is we would come that first day and stay a few extra days, and then we'd go back to our home church and keep the seventh and the eighth day holy, or the eighth day holy. This year, we're not going to do it that way. Those of you that have the financial resources, I realize some of you don't. So, please don't feel bad. If you have the financial resources and you're able to do it, many of us are going to stay the entire eight days this year. You're welcome to stay with us. There won't be no real big services after the eighth, which is that Sunday. We'll check out. Everybody's checking out and leaving. But if you stay, it will be more. We may have a little prayer meeting every morning or something, but that's it. The rest will be for our fun activities, and then we'll have one final service on the last great day. Now, there may just be 10 or 12 of us. Who knows? But whoever wants to stay over, make sure you book for those extra days. Now, that also will give us the time to be one-on-one together, me and you, without the crowds of people. So, it'd be a wonderful time. All right. Let's try to hurry along because I've pretty much reached my deadline, but I've not reached the end of my lesson, story of my life. Here's one of my favorite things, Deuteronomy 14 and 26, that you're supposed to do at the feast. Deuteronomy 14, 26. And thou shalt bestow that money for whatsoever thy soul lusteth after, for oxen or for sheep, or for wine or for strong drink, or for whatsoever thy soul desires. And thou shalt eat there before the Lord thy God Yahweh, and thou shalt rejoice thou and thine household. It's supposed to be food everywhere. Did you read it? Amen. You want sweets, eat them. And if you want sugar, eat it. And if you want them donuts you've not ate all year long, eat them. If you want cakes, don't say nothing to me. If you, whatever your soul lusteth after, enjoy the feast. Read that. Don't nobody at Tabernacles be looking at me sideways. None of y'all. I'm going to eat what I want to eat at Tabernacles. Don't be looking at me crazy not at Tabernacles. Oh no. We eat. We eat carbohydrates. We eat. I mean, it said, bring your wine too, but I'm not going there today. I don't want to cause a church split, but that's it. Amen. Amen. I ain't trying to start nothing. I'm just saying it's a party, baby. It's a party. It's a party. It's a party. Oh yes. We're going to be cooking 24 hours a day. It's going to be so much food. It's going to be marvelous. Okay. So y'all realize that I didn't write that scripture, right? Yeah. Okay. Just making sure y'all know. All right. The Holy ghost wrote it. Okay. There we go. Now there's one final thing we might could talk about. Stay in that same chapter and let's go back to verse 22 and Yahweh knew that these feasts would be a financial hardship for you. He knew that. He knew it would be difficult and he's merciful to that. So he said, here's what, here's what we're going to do. We're not going to wait for the feast to get here and you try to take out a loan to go. But he said, here's my plan. Let's read it. Thou shalt truly tithe all the increase of thy seed that the field bringeth forth year by year. Now this is one tithe. This is a tithe that every one of you send into this work. He said, if you don't, your fields won't keep producing. It's imperative. But now he's going to talk about something else. Read. And thou shalt eat before the Lord thy God in the place which he shall choose to place his namethere. The tithe of thy corn and of thy wine and of thine oil and the firstlings of thy herds and of thy flocks. So if anybody, if anybody wonders, where do I send my tithe? It tells you right there. You send it where you're being fed. You're send it where you're getting the pure word, the pure manna. That's where you send it so that that manna can continue to go forth. Read. Thou mayest learn to fear the Lord thy God always. What is the purpose of the tithe? It keeps the fear of Yahweh in our hearts always. That's the purpose of it. A constant reminder that I fear Yahweh. If you're not a tither, you have no fear of Yahweh. You're a joke. This whole thing, I don't even know why you keep the Sabbath if you keep the tithe.I mean, why are you? I don't get it. I don't care if you send it to me or some of y'all follow Rav Shaul, send it. I don't care who you send it to. Whoever your father in the Lord is, whoever you're spiritually connected to, that ain't my point. But I am telling you the truth. If you're a thief, keeping the Sabbath is a joke. You don't fear Yahweh. You keep his money, your money and everybody else's. You're a thief. My grandmother always told me if they won't tithe, you can't trust them. There's no thief will inherit the kingdom. Amen. I could, by the way, y'all know me, I could care less where you send it. I promise you, this ain't about that, but I will tell you the truth. And I will tell you that if you're a thief, keeping the Sabbath day is a joke. I'll say it again. If you're a thief, keeping the Sabbath day is a joke. You have no fear of Yahweh. If you hold his money in your pocket, you don't fear him. Okay. That just means you won't make it in the first resurrection, the 144,000. I don't even know why you're in Bible study today. All right. Boy, I hate when I have to tell the truth like that. Not what I want to do, but somebody's got to do it. Amen. Amen. Keep reading. And if the way be too long for thee, so that thou are not able to carry it, or if the place be too far from thee, which the Lord thy God shall choose to set his name there when the Lord thy God has blessed thee. Go to verse 26, or 25. Then shalt thou turn it into money and bind up the money in thine hand and shalt go unto the place which the Lord thy God shall choose. This is money you have set aside for the feast days. He tells you, don't wait. Put $20 a week, put whatever, set it aside in a feast fund. You know, I'll tell you what, we're not going to do it now, but two or three years down the road, once we have, we may set up a feast board to where they could open a bank account governed by a committee where you could literally, you know, you could send funds to that every week. And then those funds could be given to you at the feast or shortly before the feast. So that you're, you know, I know several ministries that do that for the feast. So to me, it's a great idea for those people that just cannot come up with the money to go to the feast. So anyway, I didn't mean to end on that level. I wanted to go to the book of Daniel next and talk about the coming kingdom of God. So I reckon what I'll have to do is just finish it next week. I wanted to start on something else, but there's too much still to talk about in the coming kingdom. I wanted to talk about what thatgovernment will be like, how it will be governed and what all we're going to be doing during therange. So we won't finish it today. My apologies. All right. Boy, I sure didn't mean to end it talking about Ty. That was like a killer there, but anyway, a mood killer because nobody likes to hear about that. I don't like to talk about it, but it's the truth. Anyhow, I want to say a wonderful greeting to Bill and Debbie Jenkins, to Terry and Pam Blades. I'd like Sister Mary Sell, Sister Lila, Sister Bedard. I'd like to say good evening to Melvin Salazar, Susie Delgado, Debbie Wallach, and the Feliciano family, Brother Alan Rush, Landon Kirk. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you.

Good morning, Brother Christian. Boy, I love those Ames. This is Carla Sears and Nancy DeWitt. Eve Montesano. Wow, so many new people in class today. Sister Cecilia, and there is Lori Boutelier. I love Lori. Boy, she's been a blessing to our ministry. You helped me create the Patriots Buying Club, and that has been a financial blessing to First Harvest Ministries. And I just want to say, those of you watching, if you would like to know how you can help our ministry, when you shop with the Patriots Buying Club, every month, faithfully, they send us about 10% of your purchases. Walmart won't do that. Nobody will do that except them. So thank you for that faithfulness, and thank you, Lori, for emailing me one day and saying, I've got what you're looking for. What if we'd have never got that email? Amen? Brother Kennedy Brown, and for those of you that said, I don't know what you'retalking about, go to buybywalmart.com, and you'll figure it all out. Buybywalmart.com. I've been taking too much fiber, y'all. Speaking of Patriots Buying Club, I love fiber-wise. I take it twice a day. The diet I'm on, they want a lot of fiber, but that fiber gets in my throat, and it causes me to start choking up like I'm doing now. So make sure you drink a lot of water with fiber. Amen. Brother Eric Blackman, I love you, my brother from another mother. I appreciate you. Abby Rose Ames, I love you, little lady. Gene Mack, love you, sister. Brother Shane Sparks, you've been becoming real faithful, my brother. I appreciate you. Connie Baum, I do love the Baums. I got y'all's little love gift in the mail yesterday, brother and sister Baum. Thank you. Brother Cleophas Caudill, Maria Stein, Mary Cone, Penny Miller, Angela Schumer, Carol Lott, Doreen Anikwitch, Noel from Michigan, Terry Mallory, faithful supporter of my work. Yahweh bless you for this great people that you have sent into our lives for this work that you've called us to do. Thank you for these supporters. Ray and Debra Betts, hurry up and get home. We're waiting on you so we can just spoil you rotten. Sister Maddie, all the way from Canada. I love you. I see you, Connie Baum. Welcome. Good to see you today. I'm glad to see you next doing better. Amen. Sister Maddie from Canada. Folks, I wanted to show y'all something. Hold on. Don't go nowhere. I just wanted to show y'all because a lot of y'all support us through 7k. Y'all see that little lizard right there on that coin? It's already worth a thousand dollars more than I paid for it. So make sure you are collecting those collectibles. Some of them don't advance like that, but a few of them do. So it's been a blessing to us. Let's see who else here I got. There's Rhonda Connor. Good morning, Rhonda Connor. Good morning. Y'all wave at me now. There you go. There you go. Brother Thomas Shaflett. Y'all better get to packing up, my brother. We're about tired of waiting on y'all now. Oh, we're going to make it. It's just, you know, different things. I do know. Actually, we got to get Chelsea moved first. Then we're going to get our house up forsale. We'll be out there. Let me just say something to all of you. Watch Toto Tuesday night because I'm fixing to show you something that nobody's really reporting on about the housing market. If you're going to sell, you better sell now. And if you're getting ready to buy, it's fixing to be a perfect time to buy because I'm seeing something. Oh, you can't hear me, brother Joey. Oh, OK. I'm seeing something in the housing market that is a pattern that's very scary to me. So make sure you watch Professor Toto Tuesday night. He's going to do a full report on that.
