New Moon 01/01/49/120

Dear Friends

Today is the New Moon of the First Month of the year 49/120.  It is the New Year under the Temple Calendar. We saw that last month was the Chinese New Year. Many centuries ago the Chinese made an error in the calculations of the New Moon and they slipped the New Year forward a month and sometimes it is two months depending on the intercalations, and their astronomers failed to correct the error.  The emperor failed to correct or discipline the court astronomers and the New Moon came to be known as the Emperor's Shame. It is still sometimes referred to as that. In ancient times the year began with the New Moon nearest to the vernal equinox in the northern hemisphere. That was always observed by the patriarchs as we can see from the statements of Genesis regarding the flood. That system was used all the way through to the end of the Temple period in 70 CE. The Churches of God spread throughout the world from the Christ at Jerusalem (No. 122D). They kept the Temple Calendar. The Churches of God kept the Temple Calendar (No. 156) all over the world until 1940 CE when the US COG (SD) introduced Hillel to the church under A. N. Dugger and Herbert Armstrong (False Prophecy No. 269). The Laodicean systems never kept the Temple Calendar, at all, over the 19th and 20th centuries and not even Hillel in the SDAs and JWs. More on that below.

We have detailed from 2024 that we have entered the Great Tribulation (No. 141C_2). We detailed some years ago how the book of Esther detailed the history of the conflict between Judah and the Amalekites in Persia (F017 and F017ii) and we also detailed in that how there was the be another Purim in the Latter Days (F017iii). There was to be two phases in that latter day system and that was in WWII 1941-1945 over 1260 days and then the final aspect was to be in 2026 commencing from 12 Adar according to the Temple Calendar.  That was included in the text in F017iii and that has been updated again with more information about the war that has been ongoing and will continue now for some time. It should be studied again to ensure the updates are read.

We have now started the Sanctification of the Nations (No. 077). That will take up the next four years until the Messiah and the eradication of the false religious systems throughout the world. Today, on the New Moon of the New Year, begins the Sanctification of the Temple of God (No. 241) as it does every New Year. So also on the Seventh of Abib we Fast for the Sanctification of the Simple and Erroneous (No. 291). This fast in effect sanctifies the others in the world that are badly educated and do not keep the Temple Calendar due to their errors and sins. We will discuss this further on the Sabbath. More will be added to the Holy Seed (No. 141E_3; 141E_3B) now over the four years until the coming of the Messiah (Nos. 210A and 210B). Some of Sardis and Laodicea, if they repent quickly enough, might actually be permitted entry to the First Resurrection as might others that have not as yet been called. Even at this late stage some may be given entry, but at the last effort, under Messiah and the Host, hundreds of millions will enter the Millennium, but massive numbers will not do so.

This war will now go on through the Wars of the Fifth and Sixth Trumpets (Rev. 9:1-19; No. 141C). That will continue on for seven months to the formation of the Empire of the Beast (No. 299A) in its full power from the Full Moon of the Sixth Month. The war will span from 12 Adar to 15 Elul. This is most probably the War referred to by Nostradamus in his Quatrains.  Over the conflicts the Demons will orchestrate the wars and at the same time they will misuse their power as the Fallen Host to misrepresent the power they manifest as an Intergalactic Federation, in order to direct the subversion of mankind and their already corrupted belief systems (Nos. 141E_2B; 141E_2bii). God will intervene from Trumpets 2026 and the Two Witnesses Enoch and Elijah (Nos. 135 and 141D) will appear on the Temple Mount for the Jubilee and they will begin to restore all things for the coming rule of the Messiah for the next thousand years of the Millennium (Rev. Ch. 20; Nos. 300; 300B; 300C; 300D; 300E). They will restore the Temple Calendar that was in existence under the Temple, and on in the Churches of God until 1940 before the corrupted Hillel system was introduced into the Church of God (SD) by the false prophets Dugger and Armstrong. ca. 1940.  This was allowed by God because Armstrong and Dugger were both corrupted by the US Ditheism and Binitarianism involving the adoration of Christ as a Co-eternal God with Eloah the One True God (Jn. 17:3; 1Tim 6:16).  That disqualified them, and their adherents, from the First Resurrection (Nos. 143A and 143E) and confined them to the Holy Seed living into the Millennium,  conditional upon their repentance. The adherents might be given the opportunity to enter the First Resurrection (Nos. 143A; 143E above) if they repent before the first two years of the Witnesses, in, or by, 2028. 

The Witnesses will deal with Judah and Islam from the Temple Mount and bring them to repentance by facing them with drought, fire from heaven and the plagues of Egypt (141D; 156J). Judaism will be forced to repent in order to be in readiness for the Messiah in 2030 CE. He will then restore Judaism to Christianity and then Islam to Christianity,  which it once was. That is covered in the new paper for the Second New Moon: Christianity and Islam under Messiah (No. 300E).    The only way Judah and Levi and part of Benjamin in modern Judaism can undertake ministerial duties under Messiah, if they are not of the sons of Zadok (Ez. 40:46), is to be baptised into the elect and become a priest of Melchizedek (No. 128). The Sons of Zadok will themselves be baptised also. So also the Sardis and Laodicean systems will be eliminated and their repentant people absorbed into the Biblical Unitarian system keeping the Temple Calendar including the entire Feasts, and New Moons and Sabbaths, with the Feasts out of their gates (Deut. 16:5-8). This is the church of Rev. 3:7-13.

So how did it get to this sorry state of affairs, with so many billions about to die?  It has to do with the demons and their deception. Under their influence, the Babylonians began playing with the Intercalations from the Seventh century BCE and also with the time span of the Age and reduced it by a few hundred years.  That system was introduced to Judaism in 344 CE under Hillel II and that resulted in the production of the Hillel Calendar of 358 CE. Judaism kept that calendar and modified it under Maimonides from the 11th into the 12th century. That system was never kept by the Churches of God until the 20th century in the Sardis era of the Churches of God (see Nos. 195; 195C; 156C).   Keeping it will disqualify the adherent from the First Resurrection and the Millennium (see No. 156J).

The early church, under Messiah and the Apostles, kept the Temple Calendar everywhere and the Church in Arabia and the Nabatean Kingdom also kept the Temple Calendar.   When the prophet Qasim was called into the church at Becca, by 608 CE, he had been taught to read using the Scriptures, by his wife Kadijah's uncle, and was ordained a minister of the church there. He commenced what was to become known as Al Islam, or “the Surrender” (to God). The churches in the entire Middle East kept the original Temple Calendar. All Islam kept the Sabbaths, New Moons and Feasts of God as we can see from the Koran and the historical records (Nos. 053; 274; 285; 083). It is important to note that the Holy Days kept by Islam were different from the Jews using their Hillel calendar. They kept the same calendar as the Churches of God everywhere (see also Q001A; Q001D; QS). They were centred at Becca, Petra and Damascus. The Civil War in Islam under the Abbasids overthrew the original Church of the Rashidun (or Rightly Guided) firstly, and then the Civil War saw the centre, and the pagan Ka'abah of Hubal, move from Becca/Petra to Kufi and then to Mecca from 699 CE, with the Caliphate move to Baghdad with the Civil War of 750 CE. From this time the Church of God was driven underground by the Trinitarians and the Caliphate under the Sun and Mystery Cults for the rest of the Age, the final latter days to 2027. From the Jubilee at 2026-2027 that system will be overturned, and the Witnesses Enoch and Elijah will restore the Law of God and the Temple Calendar from the Temple Mount, right around the world.  

The Empire of the Beast will turn on the religious systems that Satan manufactured to prevent humans accessing the First Resurrection (see the Whore and the Beast (No. 299B)).  The Trinitarian system will be eradicated over the two years to 2028. and then to the Coming of the Messiah toward the end of the four-year period (see 210A; 210B; 143E; 156J). The Wars will see the elimination commence and continue on under the NWO (No. 141D_6B). The reduction of the Trinitarian systems has been underway now for decades and will be complete by 2028.
In 1965, the Catholic Church had 179,000 sisters in America.
Today: 33,000. That's an 82% collapse in 60 years.
Priests have declined as well, but not as severely.
They are 59K down to 35K. It used to be three “sisters” for every priest. Now it's 1:1.

Over the Jubilee under the Witnesses many will be converted out of these Trinitarian and Islamic systems back to original Christianity keeping the Law and the Testimony and the Temple Calendar that flows from the Law (L1). Everyone teaching that the Law of God is done away will commence to die, by drought, fire, and plague (see also No. 300E) until the Messiah and the Host, and then eradicated under Messiah and the Host if there are any still alive. The world will not end then as the Trinitarians teach but will go on for the next thousand years under the Messiah and the Elohim as Scripture teaches. The Trinitarian system before the Reformation and now in these last days in 2026 are trying to use the Bible prophecies to show that the end of the Trinitarian system heralds the coming of the Christ. They are asserting that the Witnesses Enoch and Elijah (Rev. 11:1-19) are “residing in heaven” waiting to be brought to Jerusalem. They are also trying to claim that the Human species will simply then go to heaven rather than live on for the Millennium under the Christ for the Millennium and then go into the Second Resurrection of the Dead and the Great White Throne judgment (No. 143B; and the Judgment of the Demons (No. 080).

The fact is that the entire Trinitarian Christian system, Hadithic Islam and the Sun and Mystery Cults in the East under Hinduism, and associated cults, Buddhism, and Animism and Taoism and all other cults will all be destroyed by Passover 2030. So also all the demons will be in the pit of Tartaros at that time.

So also we must come to realise that mankind has been in enmity towards God and in breach of the Covenant He made with us (No. 152). That all has to be rectified by the coming of the Messiah for us to continue on living into the Millennium. Only the repentant will qualify to become part of the Holy Seed and live into the Millennium. As it now stands with humanity, very few indeed will qualify to enter the First Resurrection of the Dead as Elohim (No. 143E). The  Sanctification process we commence today will enable us to be eligible for entry to the Elohim or the Holy Seed in the Millennium under the Christ.
