The Fourth Feast of The LORD Jesus Christ

PENTECOST, The Feast of Weeks (Shawvoo’œth) שָׁבֻעֹת

COUNT THE SEVEN SABBATHS …

The Lord Jesus Christ Commands us to count Seven Sabbaths, beginning with The Day after The Sabbath of The Lord’s Feast of Unleavened Bread. As such, the count begins at The Lord’s Feast of Firstfruits, Resurrection Day, the first day of the week, Ri’shown in Hebrew. The Seven Sabbaths equal 49 days. The day after The Seventh Sabbath, Ri’shown, the first day of the week, is The Lord’s Feast of Pentecost, the Fiftieth Day. Notice He Commands us to count both the Seven Sabbaths AND the Fifty Days.

[Leviticus 23:15-16 KJV] 15 And ye shall count unto you from The Morrow after The Sabbath, from The Day that ye brought The Sheaf of The Wave Offering; Seven Sabbaths shall be complete: 16 Even unto The Morrow after The Seventh Sabbath shall ye number Fifty Days; and ye shall offer a New Meat Offering unto The LORD.

Seven is the Biblical number of “Spiritual Perfection” and Fifty is the number of “The Holy Spirit.”

There are Seven different types of Sabbaths. Here are the first four:

1. The Sabbath of Days is the Seventh Day of the week in which Christ Commands us to Rest. The Seventh Day is THE Sabbath (Exodus 20:8-11; and Mark 6:2).
2. The Sabbath of Weeks is The Lord’s Feast of Pentecost Itself, scheduled on Ri’shown, the Day after THE Sabbath. If we get THE Sabbath Day wrong, so, too, will the First Day of the week be wrong. If we Keep THE Sabbath, we can obediently keep The Lord’s Feast of Pentecost. This is the Day The Holy Spirit came down, in both The First and New Testaments, to indwell His obedient believers in Jesus Christ (Exodus 34:22; and Luke 6:1).
3. The Sabbath of Months. Christ Schedules The Seven Feasts of The Lord over the course of the first seven months of the Biblical Hebrew Year, which begins in Tawleh, the Month of Spring. He schedules the first three Feasts of The Lord — Passover, Unleavened Bread and Firstfruits — in the Season of Spring in the first Biblical Hebrew month. His Feast of Pentecost falls in the third Biblical Hebrew month, Thow’amim, in late Spring. And Christ’s final three Feasts — Trumpets, The Day of Atonement and Tabernacles — He schedules in the Fall season in the Seventh Biblical Hebrew Month, Mo’zainæyim. These are the most solemn of The Lord’s Feasts, and we honor them by taking off the entire Seventh Month, The Sabbath of Months (Leviticus 23:23-44; and Luke 9:33).
4. The Sabbath of Years; perhaps the most remarkable of the first four Sabbaths; in which Jesus Commands us to work six years, gathering twice as much the sixth year, and to rest the entire Seventh Year; is also The Year of The Lord’s Release. Christ Commands us to release those who are indebted to us, including supplying all of our employees liberally out of our own working stock, letting them rest that year, and offering them the choice to strike out on their own or to return and join together as partners in the business, forever (Leviticus 25:1-7; Deuteronomy 15:1-18, 31:9-13; Matthew 27:17-26, 6:12-15; and Mark 11:25-26).

Christ Commands a specific blessing upon each Sabbath for those who choose to obey them, and equally specific punishments on those who don’t. Our God IS The God of equal weights and measures (Leviticus 19:35-36; Proverbs 11:1, 20:10; Matthew 21:12-13; and Mark 11:15-17). He clearly explains His Will by Commandments, The Mitsvowth (Strong’s H4687); clearly explains in Statutes and Precepts, The Khookheeym (H2708) and Piqqoodeeym (H6490), how to keep His Commandments; and clearly explains by Judgments, The Mishpawteeym (H4941), the rewards for obeying and the punishments for disobeying the Mitsvowth, Khookheeym / Piqqoodeeym and Mishpawteeym. And on top of all that, Christ provides us examples, called Witnesses or ‘Aidoowth (H5713), by which we see His people walking in obedience or disobedience and receiving the rewards or punishments of our own chosen actions. Those Five Components make up The Law, The Towrawh (H8451). The Towrawh IS the entire 66 Books we call The Bible. As we walk in The Seven Sabbaths, choosing to obey Christ’s Will on His Days, in His Timing, in His Way and receiving rewards; or disobeying and receiving punishments; we become Spiritually Perfected.

… Count The Fifty Days …

The Lord’s Feast of Pentecost, The Fiftieth Day after The Lords Feast of Firstfruits, is The Day The Holy Spirit Came Down in The First and The New Testaments. Here are five of those Witnesses (‘Aidoowth). The Holy Spirit Came Down at Pentecost at least three times in The First Testament: 1) Mount Sinai, 2) Mount Seir, and ) Mount Paran.

MOUNT SINAI

[Exodus 19:1-20 KJV] 1 In the Third Month, when the Children of Israel were gone forth out of the land of Egypt, the same day came they [into] the wilderness of Sinai. 2 For they were departed from Rephidim, and were come [to] the desert of Sinai, and had pitched in the wilderness; and there Israel camped before the Mount. 3 And Moses went up unto God, and The LORD called unto him out of the Mountain, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the House of Jacob, and tell the Children of Israel; 4 Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and [how] I bare you on eagles’ wings, and brought you unto Myself. 5 Now therefore, if ye will obey My Voice indeed, and keep My Covenant, then ye shall be a Peculiar Treasure unto Me above all people: for all the Earth [is] Mine: 6 And ye shall be unto me a Kingdom of Priests, and an Holy Nation. These [are] The Words which thou shalt speak unto the Children of Israel. 7 And Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and laid before their faces all these Words which The LORD Commanded him. 8 And all the people answered together, and said, All that The LORD HATH Spoken we will do. And Moses returned the words of the people unto The LORD. 9 And The LORD said unto Moses, Lo, I come unto thee in a Thick Cloud, that the people may hear when I Speak with thee, and believe thee for ever. And Moses told the words of the people unto The LORD. 10 And The LORD said unto Moses, Go unto the people, and Sanctify them to day and to morrow, and let them wash their clothes, 11 And be ready against The Third Day: for The Third Day The LORD will Come Down in the sight of all the people upon Mount Sinai. 12 And thou shalt set bounds unto the people round about, saying, Take heed to yourselves, [that ye] go [not] up into the Mount, or touch the border of it: whosoever toucheth the Mount shall be surely put to death: 13 There shall not an hand touch it, but he shall surely be stoned, or shot through; whether [it be] beast or man, it shall not live: when The Trumpet Soundeth Long, they shall Come Up to the Mount. 14 And Moses went down from the Mount unto the people, and Sanctified the people; and they washed their clothes. 15 And he said unto the people, Be ready against The Third Day: come not at [your] wives. 16 And it came to pass on The Third Day in the morning, that there were Thunders and Lightnings, and a Thick Cloud upon the Mount, and The Voice of The Trumpet Exceeding Loud; so that all the people that [was] in the Camp trembled. 17 And Moses brought forth the people out of the Camp to meet with God; and they stood at the nether part of the Mount. 18 And Mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke, because The LORD descended upon it in Fire: and the smoke thereof ascended as the smoke of a furnace, and the whole Mount quaked greatly. 19 And when The Voice of The Trumpet Sounded Long, and waxed louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by a Voice. 20 And The LORD Came Down upon Mount Sinai, on the top of the Mount: and The LORD called Moses [up] to the top of the Mount; and Moses went up.

MOUNT SEIR

[Judges 5:1-4 KJV] 1 Then sang Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam on that day, saying, 2 Praise ye The LORD for the avenging of Israel, when the people willingly offered themselves. 3 Hear, O ye kings; give ear, O ye princes; I, [even] I, will sing unto The LORD; I will sing [praise] to The LORD God of Israel. 4 LORD, when thou wentest out of Seir, when thou marchedst out of the field of Edom, the Earth trembled, and the heavens dropped, the clouds also dropped water.

MOUNT PARAN

[Habakkuk 3:1-19 KJV] 1 A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet upon Shigionoth. 2 O LORD, I have heard Thy Speech, [and] was afraid: O LORD, revive Thy Work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known; in wrath remember mercy. 3 God came from Teman, and the Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah. His Glory covered the heavens, and the Earth was full of His Praise. 4 And [His] Brightness was as The Light; He had Horns [coming] out of His Hand: and there [was] the hiding of His Power. 5 Before Him went the pestilence, and burning coals went forth at His Feet. 6 He stood, and measured the Earth: He beheld, and drove asunder the nations; and the everlasting mountains were scattered, the perpetual hills did bow: His Ways [are] Everlasting. 7 I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction: [and] the curtains of the land of Midian did tremble. 8 Was The LORD displeased against the rivers? [was] Thine Anger against the rivers? [was] Thy Wrath against the sea, that Thou didst ride upon Thine Horses [and] Thy Chariots of Salvation? 9 Thy Bow was made quite naked, [according] to the Oaths of the Tribes, [even Thy] Word. Selah. Thou didst cleave the Earth with rivers. 10 The mountains saw Thee, [and] they trembled: the overflowing of the water passed by: the deep uttered his voice, [and] lifted up his hands on high. 11 The sun [and] moon stood still in their habitation: at The Light of Thine Arrows they went, [and] at the shining of Thy Glittering Spear. 12 Thou didst march through the land in indignation, Thou didst thresh the heathen in anger. 13 Thou wentest forth for the Salvation of Thy people, [even] for Salvation with Thine Anointed; Thou woundedst the head out of the house of the wicked, by discovering the foundation unto the neck. Selah. 14 Thou didst strike through with his staves the head of his villages: they came out as a whirlwind to scatter me: their rejoicing [was] as to devour the poor secretly. 15 Thou didst walk through the sea with Thine Horses, [through] the heap of great waters. 16 When I heard, my belly trembled; my lips quivered at The Voice: rottenness entered into my bones, and I trembled in myself, that I might rest in The Day of Trouble: when he cometh up unto the people, he will invade them with his troops. 17 Although the Fig Tree shall not blossom, neither [shall] fruit [be] in the Vines; the labour of the Olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the Flock shall be cut off from the Fold, and [there shall be] no Herd in the Stalls: 18 Yet I will rejoice in The LORD, I will joy in The God of my Salvation. 19 The LORD God [IS] my Strength, and He will make my feet like hinds’ [feet], and He will make me to walk upon mine high places. To the chief singer on my stringed instruments.

We further witness The Holy Spirit Came Down at Pentecost at least twice in The New Testament: 1) The Upper Room and 2) The Pool of Bethesda.

THE UPPER ROOM

[Acts 2:1-47 KJV] 1 And when The Day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. 2 And suddenly there came a Sound from Heaven as of a Rushing Mighty Wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. 3 And there appeared unto them Cloven Tongues like as of Fire, and it sat upon each of them. 4 And they were all filled with The Holy Ghost, and began to speak with Other Tongues, as The Spirit gave them utterance. 5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven. 6 Now when this was noised abroad, the Multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language. 7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans? 8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born? 9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia, 10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes, 11 Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues The Wonderful Works of God. 12 And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this? 13 Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine. 14 But Peter, standing up with the Eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all [ye] that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words: 15 For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is [but] the third hour of the day. 16 But this is that which was spoken by the Prophet Joel; 17 And it shall come to pass in The Last Days, saith God, I will pour out of My Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: 18 And on My servants and on My handmaidens I will pour out in Those Days of My Spirit; and they shall prophesy: 19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the Earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke: 20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that Great and Notable Day of The Lord come: 21 And it shall come to pass, [that] whosoever shall call on The Name of The Lord shall be Saved. 22 Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a Man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by Him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know: 23 Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have Crucified and Slain: 24 Whom God HATH Raised Up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that He should be holden of it. 25 For David speaketh concerning Him, I foresaw The Lord always before my face, for He is on my right hand, that I should not be moved: 26 Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also my flesh shall rest in Hope: 27 Because thou wilt not leave my soul in Hell, neither wilt thou suffer Thine Holy One to see corruption. 28 Thou hast made known to me The Ways of Life; thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance. 29 Men [and] brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day. 30 Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne; 31 He seeing this before spake of The Resurrection of Christ, that His Soul was not left in Hell, neither His Flesh did see corruption. 32 This Jesus hath God Raised Up, whereof we all are Witnesses. 33 Therefore being by The Right Hand of God Exalted, and having received of The Father The Promise of The Holy Ghost, He hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear. 34 For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on My Right Hand, 35 Until I make thy foes thy footstool. 36 Therefore let all the House of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made That Same Jesus, Whom ye have Crucified, both Lord and Christ. 37 Now when they heard [this], they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the Apostles, Men [and] brethren, what shall we do? 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be Baptized every one of you in The Name of Jesus Christ for the Remission of Sins, and ye shall receive The Gift of The Holy Ghost. 39 For The Promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, [even] as many as The Lord our God shall call. 40 And with many other words did he Testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation. 41 Then they that gladly received his word were Baptized: and The Same Day there were added [unto them] about three thousand souls. 42 And they continued stedfastly in the Apostles’ Doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. 43 And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the Apostles. 44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common; 45 And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all [men], as every man had need. 46 And they, continuing daily with one accord in the Temple, and breaking bread from House to House, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, 47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And The Lord added to the Church daily such as should be Saved.

THE POOL OF BETHESDA

[John 5:1-9 KJV] 1 After this there was a Feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 2 Now there is at Jerusalem by the Sheep [Market] a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches. 3 In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for The Moving of The Water. 4 For an Angel went down at a certain Season into the pool, and Troubled the Water: whosoever then First after the Troubling of the Water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had. 5 And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years. 6 When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time [in that case], he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole? 7 The impotent man answered Him, Sir, I have no man, when the Water is Troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me. 8 Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk. 9 And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on The Same Day was the Sabbath.

This Feast of The Lord is Pentecost, which is a Sabbath because Christ Commands us to rest in it, to keep it and to honor The Holy Spirit, and to do no servile work therein. Being the day AFTER the Sabbath Day, Pentecost falls on the first day of the week, Ri’shown, a work day (Leviticus 23:16; Matthew 28:1, Acts 2:1). Thus Jesus tells the Sadducees and Pharisees today, Pentecost, is a work day on which His Father and He Himself also work — a marvelous play on Words.

[John 5:16-17 KJV] 16 And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay Him, because He had done these things on the Sabbath Day. 17 But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.

Healing is certainly Righteous, Miraculous Work, which is LAWFUL on every day of the week and on each of The Seven Sabbaths (Matthew 12:12). When we keep The Sabbaths and The Feasts of The Lord according to our own will and our own ways, Jesus calls them OUR Feasts, “your Feasts” (Amos 5:21) and not His Feasts of The Lord, “My Feasts” (Leviticus 23). The Apostle John well understands that since they tried to kill Him at several Feasts of The Lord, and finally did so the day before Passover, then in those specific cases John calls them “Feasts of the Jews,” NOT kept in honor of The Lord Jesus Christ (John 5:1, 6:4, and 7:2).

Notice the similarities between all five witnesses of Pentecost: The “sound” the “wind,” the “troubling,” “the waters,” “The Voice,” “The Fire,” The “Lightings” and “Thunderings,” The Holy Spirit, and the miraculous Power.

ALL FIVE PENTECOST WITNESSES IN ONE

[Deuteronomy 33:1-5 KJV] 1 And this [is] the blessing, wherewith Moses the man of God blessed the Children of Israel before his death. 2 And he said, The LORD came from Sinai, and rose up from Seir unto them; He shined forth from Mount Paran, and He came with ten thousands of Saints: from His Right hand [went] a Fiery Law for them. 3 Yea, He loved the people; all His Saints [are] in Thy Hand: and they sat down at Thy Feet; [every one] shall receive of Thy Words. 4 Moses commanded us a Law, [even] The Inheritance of the Congregation of Jacob. 5 And he was king in Jeshurun, when the heads of the people [and] the Tribes of Israel were Gathered Together.

ALL HIS SAINTS, past, present, and future are present at the Mount. ALL HIS SAINTS, past, present and future received the Fiery Law, The Ten Commandments. ALL HIS SAINTS, past, present, and future agreed to keep The Covenant, The Ten Commandments which are His Wedding Vows between US and HIM. And ALL OF US, past, present, and future were sprinkled with The Blood of the Covenant (Exodus 24:7-8; Hebrews 9:19-21).

Bring Forth Two Wave Loaves, A New Grain Offering Unto The Lord …

[Leviticus 23:17] Ye shall bring out of your habitations Two Wave Loaves of two tenth deals: they shall be of fine flour; they shall be baken with leaven; [they are] the Firstfruits unto The LORD.

[Exodus 31:18 KJV] 18 And He gave unto Moses, when He had made an end of communing with him upon Mount Sinai, Two Tables of Testimony, Tables of Stone, written with The Finger of God.

THE TEN COMMANDMENTS WERE GIVEN ON THE LORD’S FEAST OF PENTECOST!!!

The Two Tablets of The Law are the Two Wave Loaves, waved before The Lord Jesus Christ, which each family brings with them out of their habitations, and which the entire Congregation of Israel eats before The Lord. With GOD IN US, at our personal Pentecost Baptism in The Holy Spirit, nothing is impossible for us. We can do all things through Christ Jesus Who strengthens us … including DOING ALL THE WORDS OF THIS LAW!!! (Luke 1:37; Philippians 4:13)

To be PENTECOSTAL is to have The Ten Commandments written on your heart, to DO them, and to teach others to do the same!

[Matthew 28:20 KJV] Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have Commanded you: and, lo, I AM with you alway, [even] unto the end of the world. Amen.

Eat The Body of Jesus Christ — The Bull, The Ram, The Lamb, The Goat Right Along with The Bread & Drink His Blood …

[Leviticus 23:18-19 KJV] 18 And ye shall offer with The Bread seven Lambs without blemish of the first year, and one young Bullock, and two Rams: they shall be [for] a Burnt Offering Unto The LORD, with their Meat Offering, and their Drink Offerings, [even] an offering made by fire, of sweet savour Unto The LORD. 19 Then ye shall sacrifice one Kid of The Goats for a Sin Offering, and two Lambs of the first year for a sacrifice of Peace Offerings.

[John 6:51 KJV] [51] I AM The Living Bread WHICH Came Down from Heaven: if any man eat of This Bread, he shall live for ever: and The Bread that I will give IS My Flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. [52] The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can This Man give us [His] Flesh to eat? [53 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat The Flesh of The Son of Man, and drink His Blood, ye have no life in you. [54 Whoso eateth My Flesh, and drinketh My Blood, hath Eternal Life; and I will Raise him Up at The Last Day. [55] For My Flesh IS Meat indeed, and My Blood IS Drink indeed. [56] He that eateth My Flesh, and drinketh My Blood, dwelleth in Me, and I in him. [57 As The Living Father HATH sent Me, and I live by The Father: so he that eateth Me, even he shall live by Me. 58 This is That Bread which came down from Heaven: not as your fathers did eat Manna, and are dead: he that eateth of This Bread shall live for ever.

Remember the Sides …

Give the Priest / Pastor / Rabbi your BEST offering …

The Lord’s Feast of Pentecost is also a Feast of Firstfruits, in which we offer our BEST to our Spiritual Leaders. The Firstfruits is theirs to keep. It is not burned up in the fire. The Priest and his men eat it IN THE MOST HOLY PLACE, as they do the other Dedicated things … EVERY DAY!!!

[Numbers 18:8-14 KJV] 8 And The LORD spake unto Aaron, Behold, I also have given thee the charge of mine Heave Offerings of all the Hallowed Things of the Children of Israel; unto thee have I given them by reason of the Anointing, and to thy sons, by an Ordinance for ever. 9 This shall be thine of the Most Holy Things, [RESERVED] FROM THE FIRE: every Oblation of theirs, every Meat Offering of theirs, and every Sin Offering of theirs, and every Trespass Offering of theirs, which they shall render unto Me, [shall be] Most Holy FOR THEE AND FOR THY SONS. 10 IN THE MOST HOLY [PLACE] shalt thou eat it; EVERY MALE shall eat it: it shall be Holy unto thee. 11 And this [is] thine; The Heave Offering of their gift, with all The Wave Offerings of the Children of Israel: I have given them unto thee, and to thy sons and to thy daughters with thee, by a Statute for ever: every one that is clean in thy house shall eat of it. 12 ALL THE BEST of the oil, and ALL THE BEST of the wine, and of THE WHEAT, THE FIRSTFRUITS of them which they shall offer unto The LORD, THEM HAVE I GIVEN THEE. 13 [And] whatsoever is FIRST RIPE in the land, which they shall bring unto The LORD, SHALL BE THINE; every one that is clean in thine house shall eat [of] it. 14 Every thing Devoted in Israel SHALL BE THINE. [All-caps are my emphasis]

THE LORD’S FEAST OF PENTECOST IS THE FIRSTFRUITS OF THE WHEAT HARVEST…

Whenever we see the Wheat Harvest in The Bible, the Season is late Spring, the time of The Lord’s Feast of Pentecost:

[Genesis 30:14 KJV] And Reuben went in the days of WHEAT HARVEST, and found mandrakes in the field, and brought them unto his mother Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, Give me, I pray thee, of thy son’s mandrakes.

[Exodus 34:22 KJV] And thou shalt observe The Feast of Weeks, of The Firstfruits of WHEAT HARVEST, and The Feast of Ingathering at the year’s end.

[Judges 6:11 KJV] And there came an Angel of The LORD, and sat under an oak which [was] in Ophrah, that [pertained] unto Joash the Abiezrite: and his son Gideon THRESHED WHEAT by the winepress, to hide [it] from the Midianites.

[Judges 15:1 KJV] But it came to pass within a while after, in the time of WHEAT HARVEST, that Samson visited his wife with a kid; and he said, I will go in to my wife into the chamber. But her father would not suffer him to go in.

[Ruth 2:23 KJV] So she kept fast by the maidens of Boaz to glean unto the end of Barley Harvest and of WHEAT HARVEST; and dwelt with her mother in law.

[1 Samuel 6:13 KJV] And [they of] Bethshemesh [were] reaping their WHEAT HARVEST in the valley: and they lifted up their eyes, and saw The Ark, and rejoiced to see [it].

[1 Samuel 12:17 KJV] [Is it] not WHEAT HARVEST to day? I will call unto The LORD, and He shall send thunder and rain; that ye may perceive and see that your wickedness [is] great, which ye have done in The Sight of The LORD, in asking you a king.

[1 Chronicles 21:20 KJV] And Ornan turned back, and saw The Angel; and his four sons with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was THRESHING WHEAT.

[Matthew 13:30 KJV] Let both grow together until The Harvest: and in The Time of Harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but GATHER THE WHEAT into my barn.

[Luke 3:16-17 KJV] 16 John answered, saying unto [them] all, I indeed Baptize you with Water; but One Mightier than I Cometh, the Latchet of Whose Shoes I am not worthy to unloose: He SHALL Baptize you with The Holy Ghost and with Fire: 17 Whose Fan [is] in His Hand, and He WILL throughly purge His Floor, and will GATHER THE WHEAT into His Garner; but the chaff He WILL burn with Fire Unquenchable.

The Mountain Burned with Fire …

THE HOLY SPIRIT AT THE LORD’S FEAST OF PENTECOST IS THE NEXUS BETWEEN THE LORD’S FEAST OF FIRSTFRUITS AND THE LORD’S FEAST OF TRUMPETS

The Holy Spirit is The Nexus between The Lord’s Feasts of Firstfruits, Pentecost, and Trumpets. The Lord’s Feast of Firstfruits is The Firstfruits of the Barley Harvest, Green in the Ears offered to the high priest. The Lord’s Feast of Pentecost is The Firstfruits of the Wheat Harvest baked with leaven into Two Wave Loaves, also offered to the high priest. The Lord’s Feast of Trumpets is The Holy Spirit taken up from the earth pulling up with Him all those He indwells. The Lord’s Feast of Firstfruits begins the Feast of Weeks and The Lord’s Feast of Pentecost ends it. The Seven Sabbaths are The Weeks of Sabbaths (Shavoo’owth) between the Two (Exodus 4:22; Numbers 28:26; Deuteronomy 16:9-12, 16:16; 2 Chronicles 8:12-13). At the fulfillment of the First Feast of Firstfruits, The Holy Spirit Resurrects Jesus Christ from the dead in The New Testament. At the fulfillment of The Second Feast of Firstfruits, The Holy Spirit Comes Down to live with His chosen people and INSIDE of those who choose to obey His Commandments.

[Acts 5:32 KJV] And we are His Witnesses of these things; and [so IS] also The Holy Ghost, Whom God HATH given to them that obey Him.

We are also a type of Firstfruits (1 Corinthians 15:2; James 1:18). The Holy Spirit Resurrected Christ on The Third Day. Christ died on the 13th of Tawleh, the day before Passover, and was buried before Passover began. He was in the Grave on Passover, the 1st day. He was in the Grave on Unleavened Bread, the 2nd Day. And The Holy Spirit Resurrected Him on The 3rd Day, Firstfruits. Seeing as the Two Feasts of Firstfruits are The Bookends by which The Holy Spirit shows His Power, The Second Firstfruits serves as the Completion of The Third Day of The First Firstfruits. Just like He Resurrected Jesus on the morning of The Third Day after His Crucifixion (Romans 8:11), The Holy Spirit reveals His Power again in Fire, Voice, Thundering, and Lighting during the daylight of Pentecost at Mount Sinai on The Third Day (Exodus 19:11 and 19:15, above).

If we have been Raised to New Life with Christ at our own personal fulfillment of The Lord’s Feast of Firstfruits (after having first been Saved at our personal Passover and Buried with Him in Water Baptism at our personal Unleavened Bread); and if we have been Baptized in The Holy Spirit at our own personal fulfillment of The Lord’s Feast of Pentecost; then we belong to Jesus Christ and will be Caught Up to Him from the Earth to The Door of The Tabernacle in Heaven with The Holy Spirit at the fulfillment of The Lord’s Feast of Trumpets! But if we have not been Baptized in The Holy Spirit, then we do not belong to Jesus Christ!

[Romans 8:9 KJV] But ye are not in the flesh, but in The Spirit, if so be that The Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not The Spirit of Christ, he is none of His.

[2 Thessalonians 2:7 KJV] For the Mystery of Iniquity doth already work: only He Who now letteth [will let], until He be taken out of the way.

[Ezekiel 1:4-21 KJV] 4 And I looked, and, behold, a Whirlwind came out of the North, a Great Cloud, and a Fire Infolding Itself, and a Brightness [was] about it, and out of the midst thereof as the colour of Amber, out of the midst of The Fire. 5 Also out of the midst thereof [came] the likeness of Four Living Creatures. And this [was] their appearance; they had the likeness of a man. 6 And every one had Four Faces, and every one had Four Wings. 7 And their feet [were] straight feet; and the sole of their feet [was] like the sole of a calf’s foot: and they sparkled like the colour of Burnished Brass. 8 And [they had] the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides; and they Four had their Faces and their Wings. 9 Their Wings [were] joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went every one straight forward. 10 As for the likeness of their Faces, they Four had the Face of a Man, and the Face of a Lion, on the right side: and they Four had the Face of an Ox on the left side; they Four also had the Face of an Eagle. 11 Thus [were] their Faces: and their Wings [were] stretched upward; two [Wings] of every one [were] joined one to another, and two covered their bodies. 12 And they went every one straight forward: whither The Spirit was to go, they went; [and] they turned not when they went. 13 As for the likeness of the Living Creatures, their appearance [was] like Burning Coals of Fire, [and] like the appearance of Lamps: it went up and down among the Living Creatures; and The Fire was Bright, and out of The Fire went forth Lightning. 14 And the Living Creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a Flash of Lightning. 15 Now as I beheld the Living Creatures, behold one Wheel upon the Earth by the Living Creatures, with his Four Faces. 16 The appearance of the Wheels and their Work [was] like unto the colour of a Beryl: and they Four had one likeness: and their appearance and their Work [was] as it were a Wheel in the Middle of a Wheel. 17 When they went, they went upon their four sides: [and] they turned not when they went. 18 As for their Rings, they were so high that they were dreadful; and their Rings [were] full of Eyes round about them Four. 19 And when the Living Creatures went, the Wheels went by them: and when the Living Creatures were Lifted Up from the Earth, the Wheels were Lifted Up. 20 Whithersoever The Spirit was to go, they went, thither [was their] Spirit to go; and the Wheels were Lifted Up over against them: for The Spirit of the Living Creature [was] in the Wheels. 21 When Those went, [These] went; and when Those stood, [These] stood; and when Those were Lifted Up from the Earth, the Wheels were Lifted Up over against them: for The Spirit of the Living Creature [was] in the Wheels.

And herein is the Nexus: if The Holy Spirit Who Raised Jesus Christ from the dead has also Baptized you in His Spirit Which dwells in you, He will also Raise you up at The Sound of The Trumpet at the fulfillment of The Lord’s Feast of Trumpets! The Holy Spirit, IS indeed, Central to both The Resurrection to New Life at Firstfruits and The Resurrection and Catching Away to Eternal Life at Trumpets.
