THIS IS A COMMENT IN FROM A BLOG READER I THOUGHT NEEDED TO BE RE-POSTED:
Bishop John Koyle:
“The overnight crash would occur on a holiday weekend where the holiday falls on a Monday”
Vision of Gail
“…a worldwide economic collapse that would take place in the month of October”
Julie Rowe:
From her book “A Greater Tomorrow” and her radio interview with Mills Crenshaw (K-Talk Radio). She said that the Saints would be called to gather, just weeks before the economic collapse and invasion of the US.
Coincidently the only Monday holiday in October is Columbus Day, October 13th.
The Feast of Tabernacles or Sukkot will begin:
Tishra 15 (October 8th) and run through Tishra 22 (October 14th).
The Columbus Day Holiday weekend will fall during the Feast of Tabernacles.
The Second blood moon of 2014 will also coincide with the first day of the Feast of Tabernacles.
During the Feast of Tabernacles or Sukkot, Jewish families would construct a sukkah, or a hastily built hut… in which meals were eaten during the festival. The sukkah is used to remember the huts they lived in during their exile in the wilderness.
The Feast of Tabernacles is also associated with another name.
Chag Ha-Asif, or the “Festival of Ingathering”. This is the festival of the fall harvest with the obvious symbolism of separating the wheat from the chaff and gathering it all in.
It is possible that the symbolism of ingathering, separating the wheat from the chaff and living in hastily built huts (tents), is a type or shadow, of what is to come for us, when the Lord calls us to gather.
Julie Rowe also said that it's definitely not happening this year (the callout). "Possibly as early as next year, but definitely within five."
ReplyDeleteAnd this site was also interesting, but different....
ReplyDeleteYalkut Shimoni, on a pasuk in Yeshayahu describing how in the future the Sukkah will be a place of refuge, says that the reference is to the “end of days,” when the wicked will be punished by HaShem, and HaShem said to the tzaddikim, “I will protect you from the devastating punishment being meted out to the resha’im if you but take refuge in the Sukkah.” What is the deeper, inner meaning of this idea, that the Sukkah saves the tzaddikim from the catastrophes awaiting the resha’im?
And there is more...each site seems to take a different bent on the interpretation or meaning behind the words of Sukkah....
http://www.btya.org/?p=2154
Applying this principle to Sukkot, we posit that we don't sit in the sukka simply to 'remember' [and express thanksgiving] that God provided for our needs during our journey through the desert; rather the Torah commands that we sit in the sukka in order to remember why that entire desert experience was necessary!
ReplyDelete"Therefore, our shiur will first consider why the entire desert experience was necessary. Then, we will show why the summer harvest becomes an ideal time to commemorate that time period of our history. Finally we will explain why we are commanded to know these events (not just remember them); and why seven days are necessary to accomplish this goal! "

Everything seems to be lining up either to this year or next.

I enjoyed this post and I would love to have more like this, but I believe you forgot that Julie Rowe said that first the missionaries would be called home.
ReplyDeleteYet another explanation of the Sukkot from Wikipedia....Prayers during Sukkot include the reading of the Torah every day, reciting the Mussaf (additional) service after morning prayers, reciting Hallel, and adding special additions to the Amidah and Grace after Meals. In addition, the service includes rituals involving the Four Species. The lulav and etrog are not brought to the synagogue on Shabbat.
ReplyDeleteHoshanot
On each day of the festival, worshippers walk around the synagogue carrying their Four species while reciting Psalm 118:25 and special prayers known as Hoshanot. This takes place either after the morning's Torah reading or at the end of Mussaf. This ceremony commemorates the willow ceremony at the Temple in Jerusalem, in which willow branches were piled beside the altar with worshipers parading around the altar reciting prayers.
Ushpizin
During the holiday, some Jews recite the ushpizin prayer which symbolises the welcoming of seven "exalted guests" into the sukkah. These ushpizin (Aramaic אושפיזין 'guests'), represent the seven shepherds of Israel: Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Aaron, Joseph and David. According to tradition, each night a different guest enters the sukkah followed by the other six. Each of the ushpizin has a unique lesson which teaches the parallels of the spiritual focus of the day on which they visit. A new tradition has arisen among some Jews to invite seven female counterparts to the above shepherds. A number of different lists exist which may include any of the following: Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel, Leah, Miriam, Deborah, Esther, Ruth, and Tamar among others, though these are not accepted by Orthodox Jews.

And yet another... Ushpizin: Special Guests in the Sukkah
ReplyDeleteBy: Shayna Chana
"There is a tradition found in the Zohar, the holy book of Kabbalistic thought, that when we dwell in our sukkahs we are joined by the "Seven Exalted Guests" - known as ushpizin in Hebrew. This is because being in the sukkah is akin to being in the Garden of Eden, and so the ushpizin go from the Garden of Eden above to the one here on Earth. These are the seven shepards that were leaders of the Jewish people in ancient times. On each of the seven days of Sukkot we are joined by a different Jewish forefather (and his wife!) in the sukkah - actually they are all there with us each day, but each day has its own 'leader' (bet you didn't realize you could fit so many guests in your sukkah!). It is a custom when entering the sukkah each day to invite the ushpizin in with a declaration in Aramaic. Sefardim take this a step further and have a separate, ornate chair waiting for the day's guest of honor.
The ushpizin are listed below, in order of their specific day in the sukkah, along with which of their traits we are supposed to try and emulate:
Avraham Avinu was known for his chesed - loving kindness. We are encouraged to have guests in our sukkah, as Avraham was famous for having guests. G-d also famously told him to 'lech lecha' - go from your home - which is exactly what we do on Sukkot.
Yitzchak Avinu was forced to move around Israel, being chased by various enemies, but was always secure because of his faith in G-d, just as we are supposed to be secure in our relatively unsecure (and roofless) sukkahs.
Yaakov Avinu was known as the sefira of teferet - which is a combination of beauty and truth. We should look at the Torah as teferet - not to mention our sukkahs with all of their wonderful decorations!
Moshe Rabbeinu was the leader of the Jewish people from our captivity in Egypt through our redemption and ultimately up to the border of Israel. We should similarly strive to be faithful in our observance of G-d and mitzvot and strive to serve our own purpose in life, because no matter what, it is as important to the Jewish people as was Moses'!
Aaron Hakohen was the first to serve as the High Priest. Just as he served with joy and alacrity, so should we seek to live our lives.
Yosef HaTzadik remained faithful in his service of G-d, even while he was imprisoned in Egypt, still rising through the ranks to become Viceroy. So too, even while the Jews today are still in exile, we should seek to emulate Yosef and stay true to our Jewish beliefs, confidant that they will only help us to succeed in life.
Dovid Hamelch was always secure in his faith in G-d, even when being pursued by enemies and in the wilderness with no provisions. While being in the sukkah isn't the same as being in the wilderness, living in it shows that we don't need real walls and a ceiling to feel secure, since like King David, we feel G-d is always watching over us.
Enjoy your time in the Sukkah. It lasts for only one week every year, and now you'll be entertaining more guests than you may have realized!
And no discussion of Ushpizin would be complete without a mention of the famous Israeli movie Ushpizin, that takes place, unsurprisingly, over Sukkot. Enjoy!"

Now I can see why Jesus was more with the Essenes, rather than traditional Judaism.
ReplyDeleteI have been wondering about the idea of the missionaries being called from all over the world, until probably today.
ReplyDeleteMy question is how would the people in Africa grow without the missionaries, or the people in Latin America, where both areas continue to see growth.
But then again I saw my own question answered in a Zero Hedge article talking about how rapidly the EBOLA virus is infecting Africans, and even a couple of US doctors wearing ALL of the protective equipment that they had managed to catch it (they looked like astronauts by the way with what they had on).
I would be looking for an announcement of a pullout of missionaries from the African West Area pretty soon if this keeps up. This is from a missionary blog back in MARCH: http://christianlehr.blogspot.mx/2014/04/ebola-transfers-and-cockroaches-33114.html
Another blog confirms that cities with EBOLA presence no longer have ANY missionaries serving in them...
