There are two
principal kind of calendars in use by most of the civilized
world. The Julian and the Gregorian Calendars- The Julian
Calendar was established during the Roman Empire under
Julius Caesar in 45 BC. This calendar provided, that
the common year should consist of 365 4th year of 366
days, and each year was lo begin on January. Most early
civilizations followed a solar calendar. The Egyptians,
Mayans and Teutons developed these to honor their gods.
One exception was the Hebrews, who followed the lunar
calendar. The Romans blended the Egyptian and Teutonic
systems to form the Julian Calendar.The calendar system
presently in use was introduced in 1582 by Pope Gregory,
who made only minor changes The Julian Calendar. |

| "And
he shall speak great words against the most High,
and shall wear out the saints of the most High,
and think to change times and laws: and they shall
be given into his hand until a time and times
and the dividing of time. Daniel
7:25 |

The Gregorian Calendar
was immediately adopted by the European Catholic countries.
When originally adopted, in order to adjust the Gregorian
Calendar so that the vernal Equinox could fall upon March
- 21, as it had at the Council of Nicea in 325 AD, ten days
were dropped and it was ordered throughout the Roman Empire,
that the day following October 4th 1582 of the Julian Calendar
should be designated as October 15th, 1582 of the Gregorian
Calendar! Both calendars reckoned time based on a solar year,
beginning on January.
Long before man was ever created however. YHWH provided the
basis of ordering time into years, months, weeks and days
(Gen. 1:14). Time was reckoned based on a lunar Calendar and
was known as the Hebrew sacred Calendar. There are major differences
in YHWH’s Calendar system and the one in which man is
presently using. God provided for the year to begin in the
Spring season in the month of Abib (corresponds to April).
(Exodus12:2) This is the month that he brought the Hebrew
Israelites out of bondage in Egypt, Africa. He commanded them
not to worship gods of the African and Shemitic nations surrounding
them.
All of the months began with each new moon and lasted 30 days
(Isa. 66:23; Gen 7:11, 8:3-4) and each new day began at sunset
(Gen. 1:5; Lev.23:32) The months and days were usually referred
to by the number of position it held in the year (Lev. 23-5)
the seventh Day of the week (Saturday) was decreed to be the
Sabbath Day. (Gen.2:1-3). This was a day that was set aside
for man to rest from all his labor and come together with
others to serve and worship YHWH, the creator of all things.
(Exodus. 20:8-11).
The Roman calendar system called for the year to begin in
January in the cold, dormant winter season. The months had
no set number of days one had as little as 28 and others had
as many as 31. The months were also named after European pagan
gods such as Janus, Juno and Mars etc. Anyone found observing
the springtime (Abib/April) as the beginning of the year were
labeled “April Fools”.
Names of Pagan gods were given to days. Including days named
after the sun god (Sunday), the moon god (Monday) and we all
remember the mighty Thor (Thursday). Teutonic God of Thunder.
The First Day of the week (Sunday) was declared the Christian
Sabbath day, to honor the god of the sun (Lucifer) Isa. 14:12)
for whom the day was named. Anyone found worshiping on the
seventh day Sabbath of YHWH was either imprisoned or killed
in the amphitheatres of Rome.
They were either torn by wild beasts or killed with the sword
as crowds of people cheered on. Each new day began at the
most in opportune time of the 24 hour period (midnight). When
man is either sleep or preparing for sleep – quite the
opposite of the day beginning at sundown – as commanded
by God.
With the knowledge of the Luciferian culture that controls
earth, the scripture becomes clear when it says. “For
behold, the darkness shall cover the earth and gross darkness
the people” (Isa. 60:2) we must return to the light
by obeying the commandments of the Most High God.
Come out of her people… be not partakers of her sins!
The Most High God began the year in the spring season in the
month of Abib (Hebrew for April). It was based upon a Lunar
(moon cycles) calendar system. Each new month began on the
New Moon which occurred every 30 days. Each new day began
at sunset.
