Since Arafat, is out of the way I have been thinking alot how this could bring the Anti-Messiah onto the scene. The Israelis wanting peace with the Arabs this time line between now and possibly few more years can bring the false messiah. We're living in Prophecy as we speak with the Remenant of the Jewish people coming from the North and from all over the world. The Israelis will do almost anything for peace sadly to say most of your secular israelis want to give part of it to the arabs to give up the Jewish land that God which He has inscribed His name and invoked His name In Jerusalem, Israel. And we know by the Old Covenant, that they are not to sell there land to foreigners which the arabs are by scriptural standards since nobody wants the land but the arabs.
I, believe this is the time to watch out for the arab false messiah to appear anytime. Since we're living in prophecy that is happening all around Israel everyday we need to look up to the eastern sky and remeber that are redemption is near. We need to pray that the temple mount will collapse soon and with the arabs building more mosque underneath the temple mount, it will speedily cause it's collapse.
But i look to that earthquake that will cause it to fully collapse so that the Messiah can rebuild the 3rd Jewish Temple. Then afterwards the false messiah will declare the false peace treaty for one week {of years}. For half of the week he will put a stop to the sacrifice and the grain offering.

The last desolation of abominations occured either 1st or 2nd temple. A pig was placed onto the altar causing this desolation of abominations. As well as there enemies set up altars for there idols and burnt incense at the doors of their houses and in the streets.

                       Feast Of Tabernacles

                            Sukkot

"Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, 'On the fifteenth of this seventh month is the Feast of Booths for 7 days to the L-rd.'" Leviticus. 23:33-43
The Feast of Tabernacles (Booths) (Sukkot) follows Yom Kippur as a time of rejoicing, of bringing in the harvest, of thanksgiving for Adonai's provision during the past year, and of remembering our wilderness experience when HaShem brought us out of Egypt and dwelt among His people. Temporary booths are constructed with materials that grow from the ground and in such a way as to allow the stars to be seen at night. The booths are then decorated with fruit and vegetables. The people were to live in these dwellings for seven days.

Another observance related to Sukkot involves what are known as The Four Species (arba minim in Hebrew) or the lulav and etrog. We are commanded to take these four plants and use them to "rejoice before the L-rd." The four species in question are an etrog (a citrus fruit native to Israel), a palm branch (in Hebrew, lulav), a myrtle branch (hadas) and a willow branch (arava). The three branches are bound together and referred to collectively as the lulav. The etrog is held separately. One recites a blessing and waives the species in six directions, symbolizing the fact that G-d is everywhere.

The four species are also held during the Hallel prayer in religious services, and are held during processions around the bimah (the table where the Torah is read) each day during the holiday. These processions commemorate similar processions around the alter of the ancient Temple in Jerusalem. The processions are known as Hoshanahs, because while the procession is made, we recite a prayer with the refrain, "Hosha na!" (please save us!). On the seventh day of Sukkot, seven circuits are made. For this reason, the seventh day of Sukkot is known as Hoshanah Rabbah (the great Hoshanah).

Many Americans, upon seeing a decorated sukkah for the first time, remark on how much the sukkah (and the holiday generally) reminds them of Thanksgiving. This is not entirely coincidental. Our American pilgrims, who originated the Thanksgiving holiday, were deeply religious people. When they were trying to find a way to express their thanks for their survival and for the harvest, they looked to the Bible for an appropriate way of celebrating and based their holiday in part on Sukkot.

Sukkot reminds us of how HaShem said: "And I will dwell among the sons of Israel and will be their G-d." (Ex. 29:45) and how Yeshua dwelt among us: " I will dwell in them and walk among them; And I will be their G-d, and they shall be My people". (2 Corinthians 6:16)

An important lesson of Sukkot is that the Holy One, Blessed Be He, intends for His people to realize a life of joy, a joy which flows out of a relationship with Him first, and then out of the relationships we have among others. Sukkot is indeed an important holiday and will be celebrated one day with Yeshua:

"Then it will come about that any who are left of all the nations that went against Jerusalem will go up from year to year to worship the King, the L-rd of hosts, and to celebrate the Feast of Booths...whichever of the families.....does not go up to worship the King...will be the plague..to smite the nations... " (Zechariah 14:16-19)

 


 

'For seven days you shall present an offering by fire to the L-rd. On the eighth day you shall have a holy convocation and present an offering by fire to the L-rd; it is an assembly. You shall do no laborious work." Leviticus 23:36-43
The day after the seventh day of Sukkot, is the holiday Shemini Atzeret. In Israel, Shemini Atzeret is also the holiday of Simchat Torah. Outside of Israel, where extra days of holidays are held, only the second day of Shemini Atzeret is Simchat Torah. These two holidays are commonly thought of as part of Sukkot, but that is technically incorrect; Shemini Atzeret is a holiday in its own right and does not involve the special observances of Sukkot. Shemini Atzeret and Simchat Torah are holidays on which work is not permitted.

Shemini Atzeret literally means "the assembly of the eighth (day)." Rabbinic literature explains the holiday this way: G-d is like a host, who invites us as visitors for a limited time, but when the time comes for us to leave, He has enjoyed himself so much that He asks us to stay another day.

 


Simchat Torah, Rejoicing of the Torah, is celebrated the day after the eighth day of Sukkot and is to be one of the most joyous festivals of the year. While not a Biblical holiday, Simchat Torah is an important time because it marks the end and the beginning of the annual Torah reading cycle when the last passage of Deuteronomy and the first verse of Genesis are read to demonstrate how the study of Torah is never ending.

The celebration is marked by seven processions around the synagogue with all the Torah scrolls. As many worshipers as possible are given the opportunity to carry a Torah scroll. It is customary for the children to be provided with special flags or banners and sometimes with miniature scrolls, as they join in the processions as well.  The processions are accompanied with spirited singing and dancing.

As Messianic Believers we can truly rejoice knowing that Yeshua is our Living "Torah". We look forward to the joy that will come when the word of HaShem will be followed perfectly in the Kingdom of Messiah!

"So Moses declared to the sons of Israel the appointed times of the L-rd. Leviticus 23:44

 There was nothing scary about it lol in fact the demon boy, looked to much like the girl on THE RING with the long black hair.

That sounds like evoultionary teaching that our DNA is 99% of Monkeys. I dont buy into that assumption.

Athiest, muslims,buddhist,rasatafarians and everyone else are created in God's image. I think you missed my point up above though since we are not even close to animals.

 I believe we are more sacred than animals because we have a relationship with God and made in the image of God and not animals. We are not equal with animals but we're created higher than the animals. Animals cannot have relationship with God. Society places to high of a value of animals which lowers the level of human value which is wrong. Society today are worshipping the creation (animals and etc)and not the creator.

 I personally do not find anything wrong with killing an animal for sole purpose to wear it's fur for fashion. After all God did give us reign over the animal kingdom for food, for clothing (fashion) for warmth and etc.

My favorite song is by Andrew Peterson

 called HIGH NOON

High noon in the valley of the shadow
When the deep of the valley was bright
When the mouth of the tomb
Shouted, "Glory, the Groom is alive"
So long, you wages of sin
Go on, don't you come back again
I've been raised and redeemed
You've lost all your sting
To the victor of the battle
At high noon in the valley
In the valley of the shadow

Now the demons, they danced in the darkness
When that last ragged breath left his lungs
And they reveled and howled
At the war that they thought they had won
But then, in the dark of the grave
The stone rolled away
In the still of the dawn on the greatest of days

High noon in the valley of the shadow
When the shadows were shot through with light
When Jesus took in that breath
And shattered all Death with his life
So long, you wages of sin
Go on, don't you come back again
I've been raised and redeemed
You've lost all your sting
To the victor of the battle
High noon in the valley of the shadow

Let the people rejoice
Let the heavens resound
Let the name of Jesus, who sought us
And freed us forever ring out
All praise to the fighter of the night
Who rides on the light
Whose gun is the grace of the God of the sky

High noon in the valley of the shadow
When the shadows were shot through with light
When the mouth of the tomb
Shouted, "Glory, the Groom is alive"
So long, you wages of sin
I said go on, don't you come back again
I've been raised and redeemed
All praise to the king
The victor of the battle
High noon in the valley
In the valley of the shadow

 Jews For Jesus   I think is what you're thinking of. If you have Pal Talk the founder Moishe Roshen is in the chat room called Jews For Jesus Chat Room.

 I went go see the French/Canadian cirque last Wednesday and like always they are Spectacular, this makes my second year to go watch them. It was even better because i bought tickets for the back seats and got there early and got to sit 5 rows from the stage which was perfect because i was out on a date

Has anyone else seen Cirque Du Soliel? and if so what did you think about it?

 I want to clarify, something we gotta keep in mind that the term Christian is only a title, I like to use the word Believer since that is what a person becomes when He or She accepts Christ. A person does not become a christian but HE or She becomes a Believer In Christ.

If a Jewish person becomes a Believer then it only Strengthens and makes that person a complete Jew. Just like when a Gentile comes to Christ it makes that person complete in Christ.

Also the New Covenant we are in, is Universal to all peoples and this New Covenant is a Contract and or Agrement
between the Messiah and the Jewish people and to all other Gentile nations. The Messiah said to Abraham that all nations will be blessed by abraham. The Gentile world can be thankful that we have salvation because of Abraham faithfulness and obediance.
