A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT OF
THE LAWKEEPERS, CO.:
ALL PRAISES BE TO THE MOST HIGH YIHOVAH, ELOHIM OF ABRAHAM, ISSAC, AND JACOB PRAISE HIS HOLY NAME FOR HE IS WORTHY TO BE PRAISED!!!
WAR
“The prophets that have been
before me and before thee of old prophesied both against many countries,
and against great kingdoms,
of WAR, and of EVIL, and of
PESTILENCE.”
Jeremiah
28:8
When we [the Nation of Yisrael] were in our homeland we
would inquire of YIHOVAH through a prophet or prophetess prior to going out to
WAR. The people in our homeland today have
declared WAR on the nation of
Lebanon to the north and on Gaza to the south.
As
the Israeli WAR-lord, former Prime
Minister Ariel Sharon, lies in a coma near death, the state of Israel has waged
WAR with only the approval of the
Bush Administration, as the world looks on.
Little do they know that WAR cannot be won unless ELOHIM has
said “go up” against thine enemy.
But what do I know I’m just an Yisraelite
[sarcasm].
Back when our forefathers were yet in our homeland
during the reign of King Hezekiah the HOLY ONE was called upon when the kingdom
of Yehudah went to WAR: “Be strong and courageous, be not afraid
nor dismayed for the king of Assyria, nor for all the multitude that [is] with
him: for [there be] more with us than with him: With him [is]
an arm of flesh; but with us [is] the LORD our God to help us, and to fight our
battles. And the people rested themselves upon the words of Hezekiah king of
Judah.” (IIChronicles 32: 7-8)
“And for this
[cause] Hezekiah the king, and the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz, prayed and
cried to heaven. And the LORD sent an angel, which cut off all the mighty men of
valour, and the leaders and captains in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he
returned with shame of face to his own land. And when he was come into the house
of his god, they that came forth of his own bowels slew him there with the
sword.” (IIChronicles 32: 20-21)
For
sure President George Bush did not consult with the CREATOR when he sent the
U.S. military into WAR against the
nation of Iraq; that WAR was
intended to destroy Saddam Hussein’s WMD’s and turned into a WAR against al-Qaeda. The Afghanistan
WAR is being fought against the
Taliban for the attack against America on September 11th and to
achieve the goals of the Neo-Conservatives’ plan for a “New World Order,” or is
it to bring democracy to the land?
The
government of Sudan has been fighting an undeclared WAR in Darfur against the non-Arab
blacks by arming a group of Arab militia-men called the Janjaweed. No nation in the world and not even the
United Nations peace keeping forces have come to the aid of the non-Arab blacks
being killed in that conflict.
Where will the next WAR take place: North Korea, Iran,
Syria?
WAR in
the east, WAR in the west, WAR up north, WAR down south -WAR - WAR - Rumors of WAR.
(Lyrics from the chorus of
the song WAR by the late
great Bob Marley)
I
close with the following scripture:
“And the LORD shall utter his voice before his army: for
his camp [is] very great: for [he is] strong that executeth his word: for the
day of the LORD [is] great and very terrible; and who can abide
it?”

Tribute to the New Moon
Revised:
The
service of this solar/lunar calendar of TORAH READINGS is by definition using the “LIGHTS” of the sun and moon,
according to Genesis 1:14, to number the “days” of each month. And the dark phases of the moon
cooperatively provide a break between the months. If there were no dark phases of the
moon, we would have a tough time determining when one month ended and when
another would begin. The Hebrew New
Year is, thus, determined by the “LIGHTS” in the Heavens and not by the
“sighting of barley.” Please see
the “TORAH READINGS CALENDAR” for more information on how our Hebrew New
Year is determined (www.thelawkeeper.org).
***
“For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will
make, shall remain before me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name
remain.
“And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to
another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before
me,
saith the LORD.”
Isaiah 66:22,23
<<<PLEASE TAKE PART IN THE NEW MOON WATCH>>>

START THE NEXT NEW MOON WATCH ON THE EVENINGS
OF
<<<JULY 25,26,27
2006>>>
BY LOOKING IN THE “WEST” JUST ABOVE THE
HORIZON.
“He appointed the moon for seasons…”
Psalm 104:19
The first “Sign” in the Heavens to provide the start of
days, years and “seasons” can only begin with the “Sighting” of the New Moon
Crescent - that which we can “see” in order for it to serve as a “Sign” and
enable us to begin counting our days and months. Just imagine not being able to
“see” the moon at all. How then
could it be appointed for a “Sign” or for “seasons”?
“The natural thought might be that the moon is like a
living being. It is born, grows,
reaches maximum size, then fades and dies, going through all these stages in one
month. Even today, we still talk of
the thin crescent in the western sky as a new moon and the thin
crescent in the eastern sky a month later as the old moon. Half way between is the full
moon. As I explained earlier,
this cycle of phases of the moon established the month as a unit of time, and
the first calendars were based on this.” ISAAC ASIMOV’S GUIDE TO EARTH
AND SPACE, pages 79 and 80
In
that the King of Israel is supposed to be a “Righteous Judge” (II
Chronicles 1:11), it stands to reason that he is also supposed to be a
“Righteous Role Model.”
Thus, if the King that GOD appoints over Israel observes a “feast” on
the day of the New Moon, then wisdom tells the Nation of Israel to do
likewise. King Saul and the
anointed David observed this service (I Samuel 20th
Chapter).
To their and our hurt our
forefathers worshipped all manner of symbols: the sun, moon, stars, and images of gold
and silver. To observe the “Sign”
in the heavens as being the New Moon “Sighting” is NOT worshipping the moon, but
rather it is doing as we are COMMANDED in Genesis
1:14:
“And God said, Let there be
lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night;
and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and
years:”
Some people feel that the
moon has no “light,” but according to GOD’s WORD to HIS Prophets, it most
certainly does: Isaiah 13:10; Isaiah 30:26; Jeremiah
31:35; Ezekiel 32:7.
***
“Sing aloud unto God our strength: make a joyful noise unto the God of
Jacob.
“Take a psalm, and bring hither the timbrel, the
pleasant harp with the psaltery.
“Blow up the trumpet in the new moon, in the time
appointed,
on our solemn feast day.
“For this was a statute for Israel, and a law of the God
of Jacob.”
Psalm 81:1 - 4
(A Psalm of Asaph, the Seer –
one who should be well informed about GOD’s
Ways)
“Also in the day of your gladness, and in your solemn
days, and in the beginnings of your months, ye shall blow with the trumpets
over your burnt offerings,
and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings; that
they may be to you for a memorial before your God: I am the LORD your God.”
Numbers 10:10
Contrary to the belief of some Israelites, the moon does
indeed shine! Even if the Moon
shines with the aid of the sun, IT STILL SHINES! And the
fact that Scripture attests to this fact, is what’s important: Isaiah 60:19; Jeremiah 31:35; and
Ezekiel 32:7. Therefore, Genesis
1:14 is proof enough that we must use the shining New Moon Crescents as “…SIGNS,
AND FOR SEASONS, AND FOR DAYS, AND FOR YEARS:”
Some Israelites, along with White Jews, use the dark
phase of the moon to determine the start of a new month. If the
dark phase of the moon lasts for “2-3 days,” then which of these days is
supposed to be the distinguishing “Sign” that determines the First Day of the
month? Or do we just arbitrarily
select either/or depending on the imaginations of our hearts?
On
the contrary, with the use of the sighted “Sign” of the New Moon Crescent
in the Heavens we eliminate any confusion as to which day IS the First Day of
the month.
“So
David hid himself in the field: and WHEN THE NEW MOON WAS COME, the king
sat him down to eat meat.” I
Samuel 20:24
At
the time of the dark phases of the moon (generally 2-3 days), as previously
written, there is no “moon” in SIGHT.
Therefore, I Samuel 20:24 sheds more light on Genesis 1:14. “WHEN THE NEW MOON WAS COME,”
is clearly telling readers that this is a reference to a visible “Moon Crescent
Sighting” - the light in the
firmament…i.e., the “Sign” for (lunar) days. Thus, if we are to count all the lunar
days (29.5) in a month, it only makes sense to start counting from the New Moon
Crescent “when the New Moon was come” and NOT from the dark phases at the end of
the month, which do not emit any “sign” or “light” in the
heavens.
The
only problem that presents itself when using the “New Moon Sighting” to call the
First Day of the month is cloud coverage, as this prevents the ability to see
the New Moon Crescent.
Nonetheless, when “Sighted,” one can easily distinguish the New Moon
Crescent from all the other phases due to its thin sliver and its low position
in the heavens. And the reason is
that no two days or rather phases of the visible moon are alike. Hence, to use the New Moon Crescent
as the “Sign” in the heavens, as we are COMMANDED to do for our seasons, days,
and years, negates the belief that the “commandment was given to the
luminaries.” The “luminaries”
fulfill GOD’s Commandments: the sun
shines and the moon orbits the Earth.
They have no need to determine seasons, days, and years. Hence, our New Moons are obviously of
more spiritual significance to the Nation of Israel than we are aware. And for sure, the TRUTH concerning them
are in GOD’s WORD to HIS Prophets/Seers - not the White Jews or other
Gentiles. All we need do is use
wisdom, discern what’s written in Scripture, accept it, and act
accordingly!
“Then Solomon offered burnt
offerings unto the LORD on the altar of the LORD, which he had built before the
porch,
“Even after a certain rate
every day, offering according to the commandment of Moses, on the sabbaths, and
on the new moons, and on the solemn feasts, three times in the year, even
in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of
tabernacles.” II Chronicles 8:12,13
Unless there is an emergency, please try not to buy or
sell on this day. Conduct all
financial and business transactions prior to the day of the New Moon. Interesting enough, II Kings 4:23,24
constitutes the New Moon as being a day to seek “the man of God.” Although the New Moon is NOT a Day of
Rest, Our GOD did set it aside for recognition:
“Blow up the trumpet in the new moon, in the time
appointed, on our solemn feast day.”
Psalm 81:3
“And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to
another, and from one Sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship
before me, saith the LORD.”
Isaiah 66:23
“…When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell
corn?…” Amos 8:5
Probably, the Scripture that most determines and
clarifies the fact that our New Moons are Feast Days is Ezekiel
45:17:
“And it shall be the prince’s part to give burnt
offerings, and meat offerings, and drink offerings, in the feasts, and in the
NEW MOONS, and in the Sabbaths, in ALL SOLEMNITIES of the house of
Israel: he shall prepare the
sin offering, and the meat offering, and the burnt offering, and the peace
offerings, to make reconciliation for the HOUSE OF ISRAEL.” (Caps. are
mine.)
Unequivocally, our New Moons are included in these
“SOLEMNITIES” mentioned in Ezekiel
45:17.
“Likewise the people of the land shall worship at the
door of this gate before the LORD in
the Sabbaths [Feasts – NOT 7th Day Sabbaths*] and in the NEW MOONS.” Ezekiel 46:3 (Brackets are
mine.)
Thereby, this verse justifies the First Day of each
month being our “Feast” Day. It should be realized that the Feast
Days that Our GOD selected (Leviticus 23rd Chapter) are “Holy Convocations,”
i.e., on these days we cannot do any work.
However, because King Saul observed the New Moon as a Feast Day, we have
every reason to do so, as well.
We also have learned that our forefathers traveled to the Temple to
worship the Holy ONE on the New Moon (II Kings 4:23; Ezekiel 45:17; and Ezekiel
46:1), and when HE has HIS Temple rebuilt, then we will again be able to resume
this service and worship.
When we return to our heritage and worship YIHOVAH
according to HIS Ways, then we can establish our own “Calendar of the Universe,”
whereby, the days of the New Moon and all GOD’s Holy Days will be recognized by
the whole entire World. And I am sure that it will be the desire
of the Righteous Remnant and ALL the world to make a Feast to the Most High GOD
of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob/Israel every First Day of the Month.
ALSO, I believe that if Lot (Genesis 19:3) and Abraham
(Genesis 21:8) can proclaim “Feasts,” then there is no stipulation for NOT
establishing Feast Days, as we so desire.
Therefore, to proclaim a feast to EXALT the Holy ONE of Israel on the
First Day of each month is quite acceptable - given the Scripture (above)
regarding worshipping Our LORD GOD of ISRAEL, Our SAVIOR, on the New
Moons. We should know that
throughout the Tanakh Hebrew Israelites called for “feasts” for various
occasions. Therefore, we are within
our rights to observe a Feast every New Moon to Our GOD, the GOD of Abraham,
Isaac, and Jacob/Israel.
And those of us who love this WONDERFUL GOD and who choose HIM to
EXALT HIM for being the ONLY LORD and SAVIOR can be at liberty to use the day of
the New Moon to show forth HIS PRAISE in a “feast” and worship HIM in Jerusalem
FOREVER.
“And Solomon awoke; and, behold, it was a dream. And he
came to Jerusalem, and stood before the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and
offered up burnt offerings, and offered peace offerings, and [he] made a feast
to all his servants.”

A
Tribute to GOD’s “HOLY” Seventh Day Sabbath of Complete REST - HIS WEEKLY
ANNIVERSARY OBSERVANCE and SIGN between HIM and Israelites for HIS CREATION of
the Heavens and the Earth:
“REMEMBER THE SABBATH DAY, TO KEEP IT
HOLY”
Exodus 20:8
“See, for that the LORD hath given you the
sabbath, therefore he giveth you on the sixth day the bread of two days; abide
ye every man in his place, let no man go out of his place on the seventh
day.” Exodus
16:29
“And Moses gathered all the congregation of
the children of Israel together, and said unto them, These are the words which
the LORD hath commanded, that ye should do them.
“Six days shall work be done, but on the
seventh day there shall be to you an holy day, a sabbath of rest to the LORD:
whosoever doeth work therein shall be put to death.” Exodus
35:1,2
“Six days shall work be done: but the
seventh day is the sabbath of rest, an holy convocation [“HOLY DAY”]; ye shall
do no work therein: it is the sabbath of the LORD in all your
dwellings.” Leviticus
23:3
“Six days may work be done; but in the
seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth any work in
the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death. Wherefore the children of
Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their
generations, for a perpetual covenant. It is a sign between me and the children
of Israel for ever: for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the
seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.”
Exodus 31:15 - 17
“And on the seventh day God ended his work
which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he
had made. And God blessed the
seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his
work which God created and made.”
Genesis 2:2,3
Significantly, in the beginning when the Holy ONE of
Israel established this Sabbath Day of COMPLETE REST and when HE clearly
COMMANDED the Children of Israel in the Wilderness to observe this Holy
Day, HE MADE NO EXCEPTIONS!
If “ALL” GOD’s COMMANDMENTS are sure, then for sure, we
must give credence to Exodus 16:29 and abide in our places on GOD’s HOLY Seventh
Day of Complete REST as we are COMMANDED TO DO!
“He
hath shewed his people the power of his works, that he may give them the
heritage of the heathen. The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all
his commandments are sure.”
Psalm 111:7
GOD’s Holy Seventh Day Sabbath of REST is not only one
of HIS Greatest WORKS of all time, but this Holy Day is an extraordinary “SIGN”
between this Most High GOD, the CREATOR and HIS Chosen People, the Children of
Israel! This Seventh Day also marks
the Anniversary of GOD ending the Creations of the Heavens, Earth, man, and all
that is therein.
“Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all
the host of them. And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made;
and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. And God
blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested
from all his work which God created and made.” Genesis 2:1 -
3
“And he said unto them, This is that which the LORD hath
said, Tomorrow is the rest of the holy sabbath unto the LORD: bake that
which ye will bake today, and seethe that ye will seethe; and that which
remaineth over lay up for you to be kept until the
morning.
“See, for that the LORD hath given you the sabbath,
therefore he giveth you on the sixth day the bread of two days; abide ye
every man in his place, let no man go out of his place on the seventh
day.” Exodus
16:23,29
CONCERNING “HOLY CONVOCATION”
The issue stemming from the meaning of “Holy
Convocation” written in Leviticus 23rd Chapter is real, and the
interpretation is grossly misunderstood.
“Holy Convocation” does not mean “To Gather.” And the sin committed by traveling and
gathering on the CREATOR’s Holy Sabbath of Complete REST has grave consequences
(Exodus 31:12 - 18).
Conclusive evidence that “holy convocation” DOES NOT
mean to assemble is provided in the passage on Passover. In Exodus 12:16 we are told that
Passover is a “holy convocation” but yet, we are Commanded to observe this High
Holy Day with our immediate families and only to join with another family if
one’s members are too few for the lamb (Exodus 12:4). This proves without a doubt that “holy
convocation” cannot mean to assemble, but rather to keep the holy days
“HOLY.” Some call attention to the
fact that because Israelites were Commanded to ”…turn in the morning and go into
their tents” (Deuteronomy 16:5-7)
that this is proof of an assembly.
Those Israelite families that joined with others are the ones GOD
Commanded to return to their tents.
The Holy ONE of Israel DOES NOT contradict
HIMSELF! HE would not COMMAND us to “Rest” on
the Sabbath Day of Rest and also Command us to “abide ye every man in your place
on the seventh day,” and then confuse us by telling us to “assemble” on
the “rest of the holy sabbath unto the LORD.” This would make absolutely no sense
whatsoever. Therefore, if the Holy
ONE of Israel said don’t bear a burden on the Sabbath Day of Rest (Jeremiah
17:21,22) and that our asses (used for travel) had to also rest, then for sure
we have to “abide in our places…on the seventh day.” Thus, using our cars and paying tolls
and public transportation on GOD’s Holy Seventh Day of Rest is absolutely
forbidden! And walking to the
Temple or to any meeting place was and still is out of the question all because
GOD’s Seventh Day is specifically to be kept as a DAY of “COMPLETE REST” - Shabatone (as is
written in Hebrew).
The wise, obedient ones understand the great importance
of observing this Seventh Day of Rest exactly as GOD Commanded and will not add
to or diminish from this Law of the “Blessed,” “Sanctified,” and
“Holy” Seventh Day Sabbath.

shall make him afraid.”
