DAY AND HOUR, NOT KNOWN? May 15, 2026

God forewarned His people of the delusive belief that His Second Advent will be in secret, for these are the perverted claims of false prophets and teachers.

MATTHEW 24:24, 26

(24) For there shall arise false Christs, and FALSE PROPHETS… they shall DECEIVE the very elect.

(26) …if they shall say unto you… he is in the SECRET chambers; BELIEVE IT NOT.

Christ’s disciples have inquired the definite time of Christ’s coming, for they knew that God has appointed the day of His return (Matthew 24:3, 4).

Moreover, Christ was being likened to a goodman who has gone a long journey (Mark 13:32–34) and will definitely come home on the day He appointed.

PROVERBS 7:19, 20

(19) For the GOODMAN is not at home, he is gone a long JOURNEY:

(20) …and will COME home at the DAY APPOINTED.

The appointed time of Christ’s return was being correlated to the summer, which can be known, for it precisely occurs in the appointed season (Matthew 24:32, 33).

Herein, God assures His people to bestow upon them the knowledge of knowing the set time of His return

(1 Timothy 6:14, 15).

Thus, God regarded His people as wise servants (Matthew 24:40, 45) and the children of light, for they were not ignorant of His appointed time.

On the other hand, the evil servants, who were the children of darkness, contend to believe that Christ’s return will be delayed and will not be known (Matthew 24:48, 50-51).

1 THESSALONIANS 5:2, 4-5

(2) For yourselves know perfectly that the DAY of the Lord so COMETH as a THIEF in the night.

(4) But ye, brethren, are NOT in DARKNESS, that that DAY should OVERTAKE you as a THIEF.

(5) Ye are all the children of LIGHT… we are NOT of the NIGHT, NOR of DARKNESS.

Christ’s return will only overtake as a thief in the night to those who were in darkness (1 Thessalonians 5:2, 4-5), for they have not watched, refusing to believe the undeniable truth of God’s appointed time.

MATTHEW 24:42 WATCH therefore: for ye KNOW NOT what hour your LORD doth COME.

REVEVLATION 3:3 …If therefore thou shalt NOT WATCH, I will COME on thee as a THIEF, and thou shalt NOT KNOW what HOUR I will COME upon thee.

Similarly, those who knew not the coming of the flood in the days of Noah have suffered God’s retribution, for they mocked the message of God concerning His appointed time (Genesis 6:3).

MATTHEW 24:37-39

(37) But as the DAYS of NOE were, so shall also the COMING of the SON of man be.

(38) …they were eating and drinking… until the day that NOE ENTERED into the ARK,

(39) And KNEW NOT until the flood came, and TOOK THEM all away…

God esteemed the fowls of the air, who knew the appointed time of their coming, as wiser than those people who firmly argue that Christ’s return has no definite time.

JEREMIAH 8:7 Yea, the stork in the heaven KNOWETH her APPOINTED TIMES… observe the TIME of their COMING; but my PEOPLE KNOW NOT the JUDGMENT of the LORD.

ACTS 17:30, 31

(30) And the times of this ignorance God winked at…

(31) Because he hath APPOINTED a DAY, in the which he will JUDGE the WORLD in righteousness…

Israel has been terribly destroyed, for they intentionally denied the appointed time of God’s visitation (Luke 19:41-44).

586 BCE – FIRST Destruction, 70 CE – SECOND Destruction

BY USING CONCATENATION:

586 + 7 = 5867 (flipped figure of 5786)

The Hebrew year 5786 corresponds to the year 2026 in the Gregorian Calendar, which is the exact year of Christ’s return.

This will likewise be the cause for the global destruction in these last days considering that Christ’s return was being typified in the first and second destructions of Jerusalem.

MARK 1:15 The TIME IS FULFILLED, and the kingdom of God is at hand: REPENT ye, and BELIEVE the gospel.

TO GOD BE THE GLORY!

Prophecy; 

Revelation

How to (properly) Read The Bible:

Start off with the gospels in this order:

1. John 2. Mark 3. Matthew 4. Luke

These books teach you about who Jesus is and the works that he has done (physically present on Earth).

Then you're going to read in this order:

5. Genesis 6. Exodus 7. Leviticus  8. Numbers 9. Deuteronomy

These books will teach you about the fall of man, God's chosen people the Israelites and the law (all sins).

Then you're going to move over to the New Testament once more and read from this order:

10. Romans 11. Galatians  12. Colossians 

These books are basically an extended teach about the law, about Jesus' sacrifices, and what it means to us and a few tips about how to be a Christian and how to walk with the Holy Spirit. 

Then read:

13. Proverbs 14. Ecclesiastes (talks about the meaning of life)

This is sort of a break from reading but it will be filled with Godly wisdom.

Then you're going to read:

15. Job 16. 1 Peter

This will teach you about things that will happen to you as a Christian, and that you should not follow God for your own self ambition (selfishness).

Then read:

17. 1 Corinthians  18. 2 Corinthians 19. Ephesians 20. Philippians  21. 1 Thessalonians  22. 2 Thessalonians 23. 1 Timothy 24. 2 Timothy 25. James 26. 2 Peter 27. 1 John 28. 2 John 29. 3 John 30. Jude  31. Psalms

These books teach you how to be a Christian (once more), a few end time prophecies, who God is, how he acts, what he will do for you, his promises, and his personality. 

Then read from this order:

32. Joshua 33. Judges 34. 1 Samuel 35. 2 Samuel 36. 1 Kings 37. 2 Kings 38. 1 Chronicles 39. 2 Chronicles 40. Ezra  41. Nehemiah  42. Jeremiah  43. Lamentations 44. Ezekiel 45. Joel 46. Amos 47. Obadiah  48. Nahum 49. Habakkuk  50. Zephaniah 51. Haggai 52. Zechariah 53. Malachi 54. Micah 55. Hosea 

These teach you about God and his personality, his interactions with the world, the rise and fall of the Israelites, their betrayals of God and his attempts to bring them back to him, and a few end time prophecies. 

Then read:

56. Ruth 57. Esther 58. Jonah 59. Song Of Solomon 60. Acts 61. Titus 62. Philemon

This is a bit of a reading break. It has a few stories, love songs, and some church history. 

Then you're going to read in this order:

 63. Hebrews (Why things had to happen the way that they did) 64. Isaiah (Prophecies for Jesus, end time prophecies, a little bit about heaven and Lucifer) 65. Daniel (end time prophecies) 66. Revelation (end time prophecies)

That will be all.  Thanks for having me.

1689 Confession

Chapter 8 - Of Christ the Mediator

1. It pleased God, in His eternal purpose, to choose and ordain the Lord Jesus, His only begotten Son, according to the covenant made between them both, to be the mediator between God and man; the prophet, priest, and king; head and saviour of the church, the heir of all things, and judge of the world; unto whom He did from all eternity give a people to be His seed and to be by Him in time redeemed, called, justified, sanctified, and glorified.

Psalm 2:6; Isaiah 42:1; Isaiah 53:10; Luke 1:33; John 17:6; Acts 3:22; Acts 17:31; Romans 8:30; Ephesians 1:22,23; Hebrews 1:2; Hebrews 5:5,6; 1 Peter 1:19,20.

2. The Son of God, the second person in the Holy Trinity, being very and eternal God, the brightness of the Father’s glory, of one substance and equal with Him who made the world, who upholdeth and governeth all things He hath made, did, when the fullness of time was come, take upon Him man’s nature, with all the essential properties and common infirmities thereof, yet without sin; being conceived by the Holy Spirit in the womb of the Virgin Mary, the Holy Spirit coming down upon her: and the power of the Most High overshadowing her; and so was made of a woman of the tribe of Judah, of the seed of Abraham and David according to the Scriptures; so that two whole, perfect, and distinct natures were inseparably joined together in one person, without conversion, composition, or confusion; which person is very God and very man, yet one Christ, the only mediator between God and man.

Matthew 1:22,23; Luke 1:27,31,35; John 1:14; Romans 8:3; Romans 9:5; Galatians 4:4; 1 Timothy 2:5; Hebrews 2:14,16,17; Hebrews 4:15.

3. The Lord Jesus, in His human nature thus united to the divine, in the person of the Son, was sanctified and anointed with the Holy Spirit above measure, having in Him all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge; in whom it pleased the Father that all fullness should dwell, to the end that being holy, harmless, undefiled, and full of grace and truth, He might be thoroughly furnished to execute the office of mediator and surety; which office He took not upon Himself, but was thereunto called by His Father; who also put all power and judgement in His hand, and gave Him commandment to execute the same.

Psalm 45:7; Matthew 28:18; John 1:14; John 3:34; John 5:22,27; Acts 2:36; Acts 10:38; Colossians 1:19; Colossians 2:3; Hebrews 7:22,26; Hebrews 5:5.

4. This office the Lord Jesus did most willingly undertake, which that He might discharge He was made under the law, and did perfectly fulfil it, and underwent the punishment due to us, which we should have borne and suffered, being made sin and a curse for us; enduring most grievous sorrows in His soul, and most painful sufferings in His body; was crucified, and died, and remained in the state of the dead, yet saw no corruption: on the third day He arose from the dead with the same body in which He suffered, with which He also ascended into heaven, and there sitteth at the right hand of His Father making intercession, and shall return to judge men and angels at the end of the world.

Psalm 40:7,8; Isaiah 53:6; Matthew 3:15; Matthew 26:37,38; Matthew 27:46; Mark 16:19; Luke 22:44; John 10:18; John 20:25,27; Acts 1:9-11; Acts 10:42; Acts 13:37; Romans 8:34; Romans 14:9,10; 1 Corinthians 15:3,4; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Galatians 3:13; Galatians 4:4; Hebrews 9:24; Hebrews 10:5-10; 1 Peter 3:18; 2 Peter 2:4.

5. The Lord Jesus, by His perfect obedience and sacrifice of Himself, which He through the eternal Spirit once offered up unto God, hath fully satisfied the justice of God, procured reconciliation, and purchased an everlasting inheritance in the kingdom of heaven, for all those whom the Father hath given unto Him.

John 17:2; Romans 3:25,26; Hebrews 9:14-25; Hebrews 10:14.

6. Although the price of redemption was not actually paid by Christ till after His incarnation, yet the virtue, efficacy, and benefit thereof were communicated to the elect in all ages, successively from the beginning of the world, in and by those promises, types, and sacrifices wherein He was revealed, and signified to be the seed which should bruise the serpent’s head; and the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world, being the same yesterday, and today and for ever.

1 Corinthians 4:10; Hebrews 4:2; Hebrews 13:8; 1 Peter 1:10,11; Revelation 13:8.

7. Christ, in the work of mediation, acteth according to both natures, by each nature doing that which is proper to itself; yet by reason of the unity of the person, that which is proper to one nature is sometimes in Scripture, attributed to the person denominated by the other nature.

John 3:13; Acts 20:28.

8. To all those for whom Christ hath obtained eternal redemption, He doth certainly and effectually apply and communicate the same, making intercession for them; uniting them to Himself by His Spirit, revealing unto them, in and by His Word, the mystery of salvation, persuading them to believe and obey, governing their hearts by His Word and Spirit, and overcoming all their enemies by His almighty power and wisdom, in such manner and ways as are most consonant to His wonderful and unsearchable dispensation; and all of free and absolute grace, without any condition foreseen in them to procure it.

Psalm 110:1; John 3:8; John 6:37; John 10:15,16; John 17:6,9; Romans 5:10; Romans 8:9,14; 1 Corinthians 15:25,26; Ephesians 1:8,9; 1 John 5:20.

9. This office of mediator between God and man is proper only to Christ, who is the prophet, priest, and king of the church of God; and may not be either in whole, or any part thereof, transferred from Him to any other.

1 Timothy 2:5.

10. This number and order of offices is necessary; for in respect of our ignorance, we stand in need of His prophetical office; and in respect of our alienation from God, and imperfection of the best of our services, we need His priestly office to reconcile us and present us acceptable unto God; and in respect to our averseness and utter inability to return to God, and for our rescue and security from our spiritual adversaries, we need His kingly office to convince, subdue, draw, uphold, deliver, and preserve us to His heavenly kingdom.

Let us be clear from the outset. The messages of Jesus and Paul were fundamentally different. Reconciliation of their messages cannot be done by harmonization. This is a fact we must accept. No one is helped by attempts to lessen the differences by declaring that the gospel is a salvation story for both Jesus and Paul. The differences remain. No benefit comes from theological gibberish that the gospel is the kingdom and the kingdom is the gospel. No light comes from attempts to show that Paul “betrayed” Jesus or “perverted” His message. No value comes from those who maintain Jesus and Paul contradicted or disagreed with one another. Such offerings of strange fire move us further from the text and sound theology. Instead, we must seek a biblical understanding of the Scriptures for reconciliation.

The Messages of Jesus and Paul The below chart identifies the chief differences in the ministries and message of Jesus and Paul. Each will be analyzed. Differences of the Ministries of Jesus and Paul Jesus:Paul: 1. Preached the gospel of the kingdom1. Preached the gospel of the grace of God 2. Defined the “kingdom of heaven” as Israel’s prophetic earthly kingdom2. Defined the “kingdom of heaven” as the heavenly position of the body of Christ 3. Presented Himself as the Messiah and King of the Jews (Israel)3. Presented Jesus as the risen Lord, Head of the Church, the body of Christ 4. Preached repentance, water baptism, keeping the Law, forgiving others, and faith in who He was as necessary for salvation4. Preached faith alone in the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ as necessary for salvation 5. Had Jews as His audience (a couple exceptions)5. Had Gentiles as his primary audience 6. Operated under the Mosaic Law6. Operated under grace 1. Jesus’ Gospel, Paul’s Gospel2

Jesus

John the Baptist, Jesus, and the Twelve preached the gospel of the kingdom (Matthew 3.2, 4.17). This gospel was the long-anticipated and prophesied good news that the King of Israel had arrived. He would establish His kingdom on earth and rule the earth according to what Israel’s prophets foretold (Psalm 2.6, 8; Zechariah 14.9; Luke 1.31-33). Its focus was Jewish (Matthew 10.5-6) and Jesus instructed His disciples to pray for it (Matthew 6.10). During this kingdom reign, God would fulfill His covenant promises to Israel and through Israel’s acceptance of their Messiah Gentiles would be blessed. Apart from this kingdom and apart from this plan, God had revealed no provision to bless Gentiles. When God’s established His covenant with Abraham (Genesis 12.1-3) He decree all Gentile blessing had to come through Israel.

The prophets had proclaimed this Messianic kingdom in hundreds of passages. Every Jew knew about this kingdom and every God-fearing Jew longed for it. One need only read the passages surrounding the account of Jesus’ birth to recognize this fact. The reader is encouraged to read the accounts surrounding the Magi (Matthew 2.1-12), Zachariah (Luke 1.8-17, 67-79), Mary (Luke 1.26-38, 46-55), Simeon, and Anna (Luke 2.25-38). Their statements provide an excellent summary of Jewish expectations and theology.

The gospel of the kingdom proclaimed by John the Baptist, Jesus, and the Twelve required repentance (Mark 1.15), water baptism (Matthew 3.6; Acts 2.38, 8.34-38, 19.4), keeping of the Mosaic Law, and belief Jesus was the promised Messiah (Matthew 16.13-16; John 11.25-27). Believing in Jesus according to the gospel of the kingdom meant believing Who He was, i.e., believing in His name (cf. John 3.18; Acts 2.21, 38, 3.6, 16, 4.7, 10, 12, 17, 18, 30, 5.28, 40, 41, 8.12, 16, 9.14, 15, 21, 27, 10.43, 48). The gospel of the kingdom focused upon the identity of Christ.

Paul

Paul preached the gospel of the grace of God (Acts 20.24; 1 Corinthians 15.1-4) and placed little emphasis on repentance or baptism in his evangelistic ministry. He only mentioned repentance in reference to unbelievers once in his letters (Romans 2.4) and with regard to water baptism, he declared, “Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel” (1 Corinthians 1.14-17). Later, he wrote there was only one baptism (Ephesians 4.5). This one baptism that Paul declared was the baptism of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 12.13). Thus, we must conclude water baptism ceased during Paul’s ministry and has no Scriptural support as a Christian practice today.

The focus of belief in the ministry of John the Baptist, Jesus, and the Twelve was that Jesus was the promised Messiah, the Son of God (Matthew 16.13-16; John 11.25-27). Paul preached the gospel of the kingdom immediately following his conversion (Acts 9.19-22). However, shortly afterwards, the ascended, glorified, heavenly (as opposed to earthly His earthly ministry) Lord gave Paul a new gospel (Galatians 1.11-12). Paul’s gospel (Romans 2.16, 16.25), was different from the gospel of Jesus and the Twelve. Its focus was not upon the identity of Christ but upon the work of Christ. Paul’s gospel was that Christ died for our sins and rose from the dead (1 Corinthians 15.1-4). This gospel was not preached during Jesus’ earthly ministry or by the Twelve.

Paul referred to the gospel of the grace of God as “my gospel” (Romans 2.16, 16.25; 2 Timothy 2.8; Galatians 2.2). This designation indicated it was different from the gospel Jesus or the Twelve preached. Luke’s account of the Council of Jerusalem made it clear that the apostles did not agree with or understand Paul’s gospel (Acts 15) and Paul revealed his gospel was a “secret” (μυστήριον, cf. Romans 16.25; Ephesians 6.19). The Twelve had no understanding Jesus would die and rise from the dead (Luke 18.31-34; John 20.3-10). For them, Christ’s death was not good news. Even after Jesus’ resurrection, Christ’s death was not proclaimed as good news. The biblical record is that Peter proclaimed Christ’s death as bad news. Peter’s sermons show he regarded the death of Christ as a message of condemnation to Jews–a heinous act that demanded their repentance (Acts 2.22-42, 3.12-26). Peter proclaimed the fact of Jesus’ resurrection as good news but its significance was that Jesus was alive and could still bring about His kingdom on earth if the Jewish nation repented. What he did not preach was the death and resurrection of Christ for personal salvation.

For Paul, the preaching of the cross was salvation (1 Corinthians 1.18, 23, 15.1-4) and this was a glorious message (1 Timothy 1.11). But Paul’s gospel created so much consternation that the apostles in Jerusalem called a special council around 51 A.D. to consider it. The reader should understand Paul was probably saved around 34-37 A.D. So a range of time of 14-17 years had passed before the Council at Jerusalem met. That was a long time. At the Council, after considerable argument, Peter made an astonishing (from a Jewish perspective) statement. Prior to Peter’s statement, the message of the Twelve was that Gentiles could be saved only the way Jews were saved. But after great argument, Peter, under the power of the Holy Spirit, officially recognized (in light of Paul’s revelations and ministry) Jews now had to be saved as Gentiles (Acts 15.6-11). This was a watershed moment. After Peter made this declaration, Paul wrote the Galatians that anyone who proclaimed a gospel different from his was accursed (Galatians 1.8-9). Paul could not have written this prior to the Council of Jerusalem. Prior to Peter’s statement, the Twelve legitimately preached the gospel Christ had revealed to them in His earthly ministry. During this same period, Paul preached the gospel the heavenly Christ had revealed to him. Both were valid gospel messages. Both had been commanded by the Lord. However, after the Council of Jerusalem, only Paul’s gospel of grace was valid. The gospel of the kingdom preached by the Twelve was formally supplanted by Paul’s gospel. Paul’s gospel of grace focused upon the work of Christ, rather than upon the identity of Christ, which was  the focus of the gospel of the kingdom.

2. The Kingdom for Jesus and Paul

Jesus

The message John the Baptist, Jesus, and the Twelve preached was that the King of Israel had arrived and that the kingdom of heaven was near (Matthew 3.1-2, 4.12-17, 9.35; Luke 3.2-17, 4.16-19). This kingdom was an earthly, political kingdom in which the Messiah would reign as King (Matthew 6.10; Zechariah 14.9). It was the kingdom proclaimed by the prophets in which Israel would be preeminent among the nations of the earth (Deuteronomy 28.1, 13) and for which the Magi (Matthew 2.1-12), Zacharias (Luke 1.8-17, 67-79), Mary (Luke 1.26-38, 46-55), Simeon and Anna (Luke 2.25-38) longed. In this kingdom, Israel would become a nation of priests as God had revealed to Moses (Exodus 19.6) which Peter wrote about to Jewish believers (1 Peter 2.9). To enjoy this kingdom required the Jewish nation to repent and accept Jesus as their King and Messiah. Once the nation repented, God would fulfill the promises He had made in His covenants to Israel. The primary beneficiaries of the “kingdom of heaven” were Jews, not Gentiles, since God’s covenant promises focused upon Jews (Ephesians 2.11-12).3 Ever since God had called Abraham, He had dealt exclusively with the nation of Israel. He had no direct dealings with Gentiles as He had before Abraham.

Beginning with Abraham, God created a new program in dealing with the human race. This explains why Jesus commanded His disciples not to go to Gentiles (Matthew 10.5-6) and why He had personal contact with only two Gentiles (one by proxy) during His three-year ministry.4 The Old Testament prophesies had revealed Gentiles would be blessed through Israel (Isaiah 42.1-4, 49.5-6, 60.1-3; Zechariah 8.20-23). During the Messianic kingdom, Israel will become preeminent among the nations of the world with the Lord Himself reigning as David’s greater Son from Jerusalem (Deuteronomy 28.1-14; Luke 1.32; cf. Zechariah 14.9). Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7) revealed what life would be like in this kingdom program. The Sermon on the Mount has nothing to do with the Church, the body of Christ. It has everything to do with Israel’s earthly kingdom. The Sermon on the Mount is the charter of Christ’s earthly kingdom and reveals what life will be like when Jesus reigns on earth as King (Zechariah 14.9).

Paul

Paul mentioned “kingdom” 14 times in his epistles. To a discerning reader, it is clear Paul meant something different than Jesus in His references to the kingdom. When Paul used the term, he meant God’s overall realm of rule (Romans 14.17; 1 Corinthians 4.20, 6.9-10; 15.24, 50; Galatians 5.21; Ephesians 5.5; Colossians 1.13, 4.11; 1 Thessalonians 2.12; 2 Thessalonians 1.5; 2 Timothy 4.1, 18). Thus, for Paul, the kingdom included both Israel’s earthly kingdom as well as the Church, the body of Christ’s reign as a heavenly people. Paul, as the apostle of the Gentiles (Romans 11.13), wrote to the body of Christ. His letters have nothing to say about the kingdom in respect to Israel’s covenants, Old Testament prophecy, or Jesus reigning as David’s Son.

Paul emphasized the Church, the body of Christ. This terminology was entirely absent from the teaching of Jesus and the Twelve for it was unknown until the ascended Lord revealed it to Paul. In other words, it was new. Peter, James, John, Jude, etc., did not teach it and knew nothing of it until they learned about it from Paul. Paul alone revealed and taught that the citizenship and position of believers in the body of Christ was heavenly (Ephesians 1.3, 2.6; Philippians 3.20; Colossians 1.5), not earthly. Paul’s last written words were, “The Lord will rescue me from every evil deed, and will bring me safely to His heavenly kingdom; to Him be the glory forever and ever. Amen” (2 Timothy 4.18). For Paul, God’s kingdom as related to the body of Christ was heavenly and wholly different from the earthly kingdom proclaimed by John the Baptist, Jesus, and the Twelve.

3. Presentation of Jesus as King and Head

Jesus

The gospels present Jesus as King of the Jews (Matthew 2.2, 27.11, 29, 37; John 18.39, 19.14; Luke 1.31-33, 67-73) and as Messiah or Christ (Matthew 1.1, 16, 18, 16.16, 20, 26.63, 27.17, 22; Mark 15.32; Luke 2.11, 26, 4.41, 23.2, 35; John 1.41, 4.25-26; 11.27, 17.3, 20.31). Jesus came to minister to Israel and fulfill the Old Testament promises (Romans 15.8).

Paul

For Paul, the Lord Jesus Christ was the ascended Lord, not the earthly Messiah. Paul wrote “though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more” (2 Corinthians 5.16). What Paul meant by “Christ after the flesh” was His earthly ministry to Israel. Those who are members of the Church, the body of Christ, know Jesus in His heavenly glory, not in His earthly humiliation. Paul did not call Jesus the King of the Church as He is presented in the Gospels. To Israel, Jesus is the King of Israel, the King of the Jews. He is not the King of the Church for the Church is His body, the body of Christ, not a kingdom. A king has subjects. Members of the Church, the body of Christ are heirs of God and joint-heirs of Christ (Romans 8.17), not subjects. As such, the proper title of Christ for Christians is Head (Ephesians 1.22-23, 4.15, 5.23; Colossians 1.18) and Lord (Romans 1.4, 7, 5.11, 21, 14.9; Ephesians 1.17; Philippians 2.11, 3.8; 1 Thessalonians 3.11).

4. Repentance, Baptism, and Faith

Jesus

We have touched on these already. Jesus proclaimed repentance, baptism, and belief. These three were bound together in Jesus’ kingdom gospel. Repentance was the first step of kingdom salvation (Matthew 3.2, 4.17; Mark 1.4, 15, 6.12; Luke 3.3, 5.32, 13.3, 5, 24.47). Peter continued this message after Jesus’ resurrection and ascension. He demanded all Jews repent, be baptized, and believe that Jesus was the Christ (Acts 2.38, 3.19). Water baptism was required for salvation according to the kingdom gospel (Mark 1.4, 16.16; Acts 2.38, 8.34-38, 22.16). Saving faith was belief Jesus was the promised Messiah, the Son of God (Matthew 16.15-16; John 11.26-27; Acts 8.36-37), not that He died for our sins and rose from the dead. Another way of stating this is that the message of salvation of Jesus’ earthly ministry and the message of the Twelve was based upon the identity of Christ. This was in contrast to Paul’s gospel of grace which focused upon the work of Christ–that He died for our sins and arose from the dead.

Notice also the content of what most know as the Lord’s Prayer regarding the Lord’s words about forgiveness of sins. In the gospels of Luke and Matthew, we have a record of this prayer. Luke recorded:

1 It happened that while Jesus was praying in a certain place, after He had finished, one of His disciples said to Him, “Lord, teach us to pray just as John also taught his disciples.” 2 And He said to them, “When you pray, say: ‘Father, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. 3 ‘Give us each day our daily bread. 4 ‘And forgive us our sins, for we ourselves also forgive everyone who is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation’” (Luke 11.1-4).

Matthew recorded:

7 “And when you are praying, do not use meaningless repetition as the Gentiles do, for they suppose that they will be heard for their many words. 8 So do not be like them; for your Father knows what you need before you ask Him. 9 “Pray, then, in this way: ‘Our Father who is in heaven, hallowed be Your name. 10 ‘Your kingdom come. Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. 11 ‘Give us this day our daily bread. 12 ‘And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. 13 ‘And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from evil. [For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.’] 14 For if you forgive others for their transgressions, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive others, then your Father will not forgive your transgressions (Matthew 6.7-15).

In both accounts, Jesus taught God’s forgiveness depended upon one forgiving others. Paul’s teaching was entirely different.

Paul

Paul’s gospel is a gospel of faith alone: faith + 0. It is sola fide. Paul’s gospel is a grace gospel, not a kingdom gospel. Paul’s gospel of salvation is Christ died for our sins and rose again (1 Corinthians 15.1-4). Jesus’ gospel and the gospel of the Twelve was Jesus was the promised Messiah. No one today preaches one is saved by believing Jesus was the promised Messiah. Why not? Because the gospel of the kingdom is not the gospel of the grace of God. Our gospel is Christ died for our sins and rose from the dead. That is what we must believe for salvation.

Contrast what the Lord taught in the Lord’s Prayer with what Paul taught regarding forgiveness. Paul wrote the Ephesians:

Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you (Ephesians 4.32).

A similar passage is Colossians 3.12-13 where Paul wrote:

12 So, as those who have been chosen of God, holy and beloved, put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience; 13 bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, whoever has a complaint against anyone; just as the Lord forgave you, so also should you.

These passages are vastly different from what the Lord taught the Twelve in His prayer. Paul exhorted believers to forgive one another–not as a condition for divine forgiveness–but as a result of divine forgiveness (Ephesians 1.7; Colossians 1.14). This is grace not Law (Romans 6.14) and is wholly different from what Jesus taught the Jews in His earthly ministry.

5. Audiences of Jesus and Paul

Jesus

Jesus came as Israel’s Messiah (Romans 15.8). His ministry was to Jews exclusively (Matthew 10.5-6). As noted above, He made two exceptions: the Canaanite woman (Matthew 15.21-28) and the Roman centurion (Matthew 8.1-13 cf. Luke 7.1-10). Because of the great faith of these individuals Jesus relented His Jew only policy to grant their requests.

Following Jesus’ resurrection and ascension Peter and the Twelve addressed the nation of Israel. Most people think the disciples ministered to Gentiles as well as Jews in light of the so-called “Great Commission” of Matthew 28.16-20. But the biblical record states otherwise. The Twelve continued to address Jews only. They recognized the Jewish priority of God’s kingdom program proclaimed by the prophets. They understood Gentiles were to be blessed through Israel. They knew their Bibles. Because of this, they could not go to Gentiles until the Jewish nation repented and believed Jesus was the promised Messiah. To have done so would have been to disobey God. Thus, even in the face of severe persecution, the Twelve, the leaders, refused to leave Jerusalem and go into Gentile territory (Acts 8.1). Even as late as Acts 11.19 (probably about 38 A.D.) the gospel preached from the Jerusalem believers was to Jews alone.

Paul

God saved Paul and commissioned him as “the apostle of the Gentiles” (Romans 11.13). As we have seen, Jesus ministered exclusively to Jews and the Twelve were apostles to Israel, not to Gentiles. Jesus had promised them rulership over Israel, not over Gentiles (Matthew 19.28). The Old Testament kingdom program was in place during Jesus’ earthly ministry and would have been fulfilled had the nation repented. Paul explained this truth in his excursus on Israel in Romans 9-11. Paul wrote Israel will repent and God will fulfill His covenant promises to the nation (Romans 11.25-27). The next event on the prophetic timeline as revealed in the Old Testament was the Day of the Lord–a time of divine wrath. Peter expected it to occur soon and quoted Joel on the day of Pentecost (Acts 2.14-21). But God in His mercy interrupted the kingdom program to bless Gentiles in spite of Israel’s disobedience. In His matchless grace God delayed His wrath. He saved Paul to minister to Gentiles and began a whole new program with Paul as its head. Thus, Paul, a Jew, became the “Jewish agent” or “proxy” to bless Gentiles. He typified a reborn Israel. This was why he referred to himself as one “untimely born” (1 Corinthians 15.8). God revealed to Paul the Church, the body of Christ, and other secrets He had kept hidden from the prophets and the Twelve.5

6. Jesus Ministered Under Law, Paul Ministered Under Grace

Jesus

Jesus ministered under the Law of Moses throughout his earthly ministry (Matthew 5.17-18). He constantly referred to the Mosaic Law as the foundation of His ministry (Matthew 7.12, 8.4, 12.5, 12, 23.1-3; Mark 1.44; 10.3-4; Luke 10.25-29). Gentiles had nothing to do with the Mosaic Law. God gave it to the Jews, not Gentiles (Ephesians 2.11-13), and not to the Church, the body of Christ.

Paul

Paul was born under the Mosaic Law. He was a Pharisee who knew and rigorously enforced the Law (Philippians 3.5-6). But after his conversion, Paul taught that those who believed his gospel were not under the Law of Moses. He taught believers of his gospel were under the administration of grace rather than under the administration of the Mosaic Law (Romans 6.14-15; Galatians 5.1). He taught the believer of his gospel was free from the Law of Moses and that Law had no claim upon him due to the believer’s identification with Christ in his crucifixion and resurrection (Romans 7.1-12, 8.2, 10.4). Paul taught that only by becoming dead to the Law can one live the Christian life (Galatians 2.19, 4.21, 5.1, 18).6

Conclusion To reconcile Jesus and Paul we must be faithful to the text and recognize major differences exist between their ministries. The Scriptures do not contradict one another for God is not the author of confusion (1 Corinthians 14.33). We simply need to recognize that God had a program for Israel which He revealed to and through the prophets and that He revealed a new program to Paul for the Church, the body of Christ. Jesus and the Twelve ministered to Jews under the Mosaic Law and preached the gospel of the kingdom to fulfill the Old Testament prophesies of Israel’s earthly kingdom with the Messiah as King (Romans 15.8). Paul ministered to Gentiles (Romans 11.13) under grace, apart from the Law, and disclosed secrets the ascended and glorified Lord had revealed to him. Paul taught believers of his gospel, the gospel of the grace of God (Acts 20.24; 1 Corinthians 15.1-4; Romans 2.16, 16.25), were members of the body of Christ with Christ as its Head, not its King. Finally, in addition to the differences noted above, were other “secrets” the risen Lord revealed unto Paul alone. These are the subject of the article Paul’s “Mystery.” What can we conclude with regard to reconciling Jesus and Paul? Saul of Tarsus did not become Paul the Apostle by human efforts (Romans 1.1-6; Galatians 1.1, 15-24). He became the apostle of the grace of God by the sovereign will of the glorified Christ. Just as God established His plan with Israel beginning with Abraham, He began a new plan with Paul. God laid the groundwork for His plan for Israel beginning with Abraham. God created the Church, the body of Christ, beginning with Paul. The risen Lord revealed His plan through Paul just as He revealed His plan through Abraham (the Abrahamic Covenant) and later, Moses (the Mosaic Covenant). These two programs are different but complementary. They are not contradictory for God cannot contradict God. The Lord Jesus Christ is Lord of heaven and earth, Israel and Church. God is sovereign over both His earthly people, Israel, and over His heavenly people, the Church, the body of Christ. We both have one Master. Each has its own glory and purpose before God. The glory of God is in heterogeneity and in homogeneity. Both Israel and the Church are citizens of the kingdom of God as Paul expressed it–the rule of God over all creation. We share different blessings and serve under different contexts but have the same Lord. Paul taught this reality in his great example of the olive tree7 in Romans 11. Summing up his revelation, he concluded by exclaiming: 33 O, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and unfathomable His ways! 34 For who has known the mind of the Lord or who became his counselor? 35 Or who has first given to Him that it might be paid back to Him again? 36 For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever. Amen (Romans 11.33-36). 1 The title, “Jesus vs. Paul” is not to be taken in a challenging sense as if Paul can compare with Jesus. No one would be more embarrassed by this title than Paul himself. The title was selected because this is the way the controversy about their teachings has been framed at the present time. Thus, “Jesus” serves as a vehicle to represent the Old Testament program God initiated with Abraham and the Abrahamic Covenant. When Jesus arrived on the scene, God’s kingdom program to Israel revived under the calling and ministry of John the Baptist. Israel had an opportunity to have its long-promised kingdom on earth if it repented (Matthew 6.10). The King was present. This program was entirely different from the program of the Church, body of Christ, which Paul received from the ascended, heavenly Lord. 2 Some bristle at the idea there has been more than one gospel. We have one gospel today: 1 Corinthians 15.1-4, the gospel of the grace of God (Acts 20.24). However, the Scriptures clearly reveal that for a period of time two gospels were in effect: from Paul’s return from Arabia after his salvation until Acts 15.11. During this period, the Twelve proclaimed the gospel of the kingdom and Paul proclaimed the gospel of the grace of God. According to Acts 15.1, 5 and many other passages, the gospel of the kingdom required works for salvation. Paul’s gospel, the gospel of the grace of God, was sola fide, faith alone. The gospel of the kingdom focused upon Christ’s identity, who He was, the Messiah, the Son of God. Paul’s gospel focused upon Christ’s work: He died for our sins and rose again. After Acts 15.11, only one gospel remained, Paul’s gospel. This explains Paul’s words of Galatians 1.6-9. 3 The phrase “kingdom of heaven” is unique to Matthew. The phrase is a genitive of source and means the source of this kingdom is from heaven. It is not a genitive of location meaning it is located in heaven. The kingdom of heaven is future and will be located on earth. Jesus told His disciples to pray for its establishment on the  earth (Matthew 6.10). The chief beneficiaries will be Jews (Deuteronomy 28.1, 13) for God will fulfill His covenantal promises to them. Gentiles will be blessed in this kingdom through Israel (Isaiah 42.6, 49.6, 60.3; Zechariah 8.20-23) and Israel will be the premier nation among the nations (Deuteronomy 28.1, 13), a nation of priests (Exodus 19.5-6). The Church, the body of Christ, will be joint-heirs with Christ (Romans 8.16-17). God has not revealed what this entails or what our role will be during His Millennial reign except that we will rule angels (1 Corinthians 6.3).

The Identifying Marks of Cultural Christianity

1. Denying the inspiration of scripture or parts of scripture.

2 Timothy 3:16-All scripture is inspired by God and is profitable for teaching, for rebuking, for correcting, for training in righteousness. 

2 Peter 1:21- Because no prophecy ever came by the will of man, instead, men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit. 

2. Ignoring or downplaying true repentance as the first step toward knowing God. 

Matthew 4:17- From then on Jesus began to preach “Repent, because the kingdom of heaven has come near.

Acts 2:38- Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, each of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 

3. Focusing on Jesus love and acceptance to the exclusion of His teaching on hell, obedience, and self-sacrifice. 

Matthew 4:17- From then on Jesus began to preach, “Repent, because the kingdom of heaven has come near. 

Matthew 23:33- Snakes! Broad of vipers! How can you escape being condemned to hell?

Mark 9:43- And if your hand causes you to fall away, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life maimed then to have two hands and go to hell, the unquenchable fire. 

Luke 12:5- But I will show you the one to fear: Fear him who has authority to throw people into hell after death. Yes, I say to you, this is the one to fear. 

4. Tolerating or even celebrating ongoing sin claiming to know God. 

Romans 1:32- Although they know God’s just sentence, that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but even applaud others who practice them.

1 Corinthians 5:1-2- It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and the kind of sexual immorality that is not even tolerated among the Gentiles, a man is sleeping with his father’s wife. And you are arrogant! Shouldn’t you be filled with grief and remove from the congregation the one who did this?

1 John 3:9-10- Everyone who has been born of God, does not sin, because his seed remains in him, he is not able to sin, because he has been born of God. This is how God’s children and the devil’s children become obvious. Whoever does not do what is right is not of God, especially the one who does not love his brother or sister. 

5. Redefining truths to accommodate culture.

Numbers 23:19- God is not a man, that he might lie, or a son of man, that he might change his mind. Does he speak and not act, or promise and not fulfill?

Malachi 3:6- Because I, the Lord, have not changed your descendants of Jacob have not been destroyed.

6. Understanding Jesus to be a social reformer, rather than God in the flesh who is the sacrifice for our sins. 

Matthew 10:34- Do not assume that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.

Mark 14:7- You always have the poor with you, and you can do what is good for them whenever you want, but you do not always have me.

7. Claiming God’s promises while ignoring the requirements included with them. 

Psalm 50:16- But God says to the wicked: What right do you have to recite my statutes and to take my covenant on your lips. 

Jeremiah 18:10- However, if it does what is evil in my sight by not listening to me, I will relent concerning the good I had said I would do it. 

8. Denying or minimizing Jesus claim that He is the only way to God. 

John 3:15-18- So that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life. For God loved the world in this way. He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world, but save the world through him. Anyone who believes in him is not condemned, but anyone who does not believe is already condemned, because he has not believed in the name of the one and only Son of God. 

John 14:6- Jesus told him, I am the way the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 

9. Performing enough religious activity to gain a sense of well-being without a true divination to Jesus. 

Galatians 5:16-17- I say then, walk by the Spirit and you will certainly not carry out the desire of the flesh. For the flesh desires what is against the Spirit, and the Spirit desires what is against the flesh, these are opposed to each other, so that you don’t do what you want. 

Romans 8:9- You, however are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. If anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ he does not belong to him. 

10. Talking much about “God” in general sense, but very little about Jesus Christ as Lord.

John 13:13- You call me teacher and Lord, and you are speaking rightly, since that is what I am. 

John 14:6- Jesus told him “I am the way the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 

11. Seeing protection and blessing as goals to be achieved, rather than by products of a loving relationship with God.

Mark 12:30- Love the Lord your God with all your heart with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength. 

Deuteronomy 11:13-17- If you carefully obey my commands I am giving you today, to love the Lord your God and worship him with all your heart and all your soul, I will provide rain for your land in the proper time, the autumn and spring rains, and you will harvest your grain, new wine, and fresh oil. I will provide grass in your fields for your livestock. You will eat and be satisfied. Be careful that you are not enticed to turn aside, serve and bow in worship to other god’s. Then the Lord’s anger will burn against you. He will shut the sky, and there will be no rain, the land will not yield it’s produce and you will perish quickly form the good land the Lord is giving you. 

12. Choosing a church based upon any or all the above. 

Revelation 3:15-17- I know your works, so that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were cold or hot. So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I am going to vomit you out of my mouth. For you say, I’m rich, I have become wealthy and need nothing, and you don’t realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind, and naked.

To pray a holy hour of Adoration of the Eucharist, all you need is a tabernacle with a lit sanctuary lamp, a Bible, and perhaps a Compendium of the Catechism of the Catholic Church (available online).

Three Rules

1.  Be Silent. Don’t rattle prayers or silently review stresses. Be still exteriorly and interiorly.

2.  Be Attentive. It’s not simply a reading hour — reading should be an entry-point to prayer.

3.  Be Alert. Sit, stand, or kneel respectfully. Quick tip: If you get sleepy, stand up!

Minute-by-Minute

There is no one way to pray a holy hour. The following might help if you get lost in the hour, but feel free to reconfigure it to suit your needs.

:00-:05 – Begin

First 5 Minutes: Ask the Holy Spirit to help you, then make acts of faith, hope, and charity. Tell God how you believe, trust, and love him. Ask for more faith, hope, and love.

Quick tip: There are great prayers to the Holy Spirit and Acts of Faith, Hope, and Love in the Compendium.

:05-:15 – Adoration

Next 10 Minutes: Adore God. He holds the universe like a seed in the palm of his hand. He is all powerful, all good, more beautiful than we can imagine, and more real than the small things that we grasp so easily. Imagine Christ sitting with you.

Tell him: “Oh my God, I adore your divine greatness from the depths of my littleness; you are so great, and I am so small.” or “Glory be …” Repeat as long as necessary.

Quick Tip: Try the Te Deum in the Compendium. Scriptural helps for adoration—Exodus 33:18-23; Song of Songs 2:8-17;  Matthew 2:1-11; John 1:1-18;  Colossians 1:15-20; Philippians, 2:6-11.

:15-:25 – Contrition

Next 10 Minutes: Offer reparation. It’s not your love for God, but his for you that saves. Examine your conscience. Offer reparation for the sins of the world. Pray: “Oh my Jesus, I am so sorry. Forgive me.” (Imagine Jesus on the cross; kiss each wound.)

Quick tip: Scriptures for contrition—1 Corinthians 13:4-7; Colossians 3:5-10; 1 Timothy 1:12-17; James 3:2-12; 1 John 1:5-2:6; Penitential Psalms: 6, 32, 38, 51, 102, 130, 142.

:25-:40 – Meditation

Next 15 Minutes: Contemplate God’s action. You may wish to meditatively pray the Stations of the Cross or a Rosary. Or:

Scriptural meditation. Read a brief Gospel passage. Imagine the scene. Notice Christ’s reactions. Think of three ways the passage applies to your own life. Meditate on each line.

Doctrinal meditation. Read Scripture or Catechism passages that apply to a doctrine of the Church. Appreciate God’s plan and find ways it applies to you. (Perhaps: Sunday, Resurrection; Monday, Incarnation; Tuesday, Mercy/con­fession; Wednesday, Holy Spirit; Thursday, Eucharist; Friday, Passion; Saturday, Mary).

Life meditation. Or, deepening your examination of conscience, look at your own life. Which kind of pride do you most fall into? Selfishness (valuing yourself most), Vanity (valuing others opinions most), Sensuality (valuing comforts most). Pray for the opposite virtues: Charity (serving others first), Fidelity (putting Christ’s opinion first), Discipline (accepting your crosses).

:40-:50 – Thanksgiving

Next 10 Minutes: Express gratitude for all God’s gifts. He didn’t just create you, he sustains your existence out of love in every moment.

Thank him for literally everything, and be specific: food, shelter, clothing, health, family, friends, teachers, coworkers, home, and most of all spiritual gifts — faith, hope, love, this time of prayer, the Catholic faith, the disciples who reached you.

Thank God for answers to prayer. Thank him for crosses. Thank him for creating you and caring so much for you that he died for you.

Quick tip: Scriptures for thanksgiving – Genesis 1; Genesis 8:15-22; Job 1:13-22; Daniel 3:46 ff.; Matthew 6:25-34; Luke 17:11-19; Psalms: 8, 65, 66, 100, 111.

:50-:55 – Petition God

Next 5 Minutes: Ask God for what you and others need. He is the king of the universe. He’s in control, even when it isn’t obvious.

Pray for: The Church, the pope’s intentions, for those who are suffering, for priests and bishops, for religious, for vocations, for your country, your family, for what you need most in the spiritual life. Pray for peace and the protection of the institution of the family. Pray for those who have asked for prayers.

:55-1:00

Final 5 Minutes: Make a resolution to act on a light of the Holy Spirit you received: something doable and checkable.

Ask the Blessed Mother to help you, perhaps with Marian prayers from the Compendium.

SEVENTH DAY SABBATH, GOD’S EVERLASTING COVENANT, May 15, 2026

The entire consecration of God’s covenant people is solely bound to God upon entering into the agreement of His covenant.

EZEKIEL 16:8 …and ENTERED into a COVENANT with thee, saith the Lord GOD, and THOU BECAMEST MINE.

God made the seventh day Sabbath, which is the perpetual and everlasting covenant (Leviticus 24:8), a sign or seal unto His people.

EXODUS 31:16-18

(16) … to OBSERVE the SABBATH throughout their generations, for a PERPETUAL COVENANT.

(17) It is a SIGN between me and the children of Israel for ever… on the SEVENTH DAY he RESTED, and was refreshed.

(18) And he gave unto Moses… upon MOUNT SINAI, TWO TABLES of testimony… WRITTEN with the FINGER of GOD.

Abraham, who became the father of faith, has received the sign of circumcision even when he was yet being uncircumcised, for he already kept the Sabbath of the Lord (Genesis 26:5), which is the sign, seal, or mark of God (Revelation 7:2-3, Ezekiel 9:4-6).

ROMANS 4:11 And he received the SIGN of CIRCUMCISION, a SEAL of the righteousness… yet being UNCIRCUMCISED… be the father of all… that RIGHTEOUSNESS might be IMPUTED unto them also:

Additionally, the seventh day Sabbath is likewise the foundation of God that stands sure for many generations

(2 Timothy 2:19, Isaiah 58:12, 13).

Moreover, God’s people in the past have trodden underfoot the covenant of God as they have sinned against Him (Ezekiel 34:18, 19, Hebrews 10:29).

Herewith, God has been renewing and re-establishing His covenant in every generation (Genesis 17:7, 19, Psalm 105:8-10), just as on the day that the Israelites were held slaves in Egypt and had stroked blood on their doorposts (Exodus 6:4-5, Exodus 12:22-23, 26-27).

JEREMIAH 31:31, 32 (HEBREWS 8:7-9)

(31) …I will make a NEW COVENANT with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:

(32) Not according to the COVENANT that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them… out of the land of EGYPT…

The covenant that God executed on Mount Sinai in Arabia (Exodus 24:3, 7-8) was comprised of both Israelites and Ishmaelites (Egyptian Arabs), for there were mixed multitudes among the Israelites as they went out from Egypt (Exodus 12:41, 37-38).

God’s everlasting covenant has been confirmed unto all flesh, including Adam and Eve, down to the days of Noah (Genesis 9:15, 16), even before the flood.

GENESIS 6:18 But with thee will I ESTABLISH my COVENANT; and thou shalt COME into the ARK, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee.

Hereby, man shall always be bound to keep the seventh day Sabbath until the Second Coming of Christ (Hebrews 13:20, 21) and even in the new heaven and new earth, for His covenant shall forever remain.

ISAIAH 66:22, 23

(22) For as the NEW HEAVENS and the NEW EARTH…

(23) …from one new moon to another, and from one SABBATH to another, shall ALL FLESH come to WORSHIP before me, saith the LORD.

God placed the exact year of His return in the seventh day Sabbath, which is the most explicit truth of God’s appointed time.

EXODUS 20:8-11

6 – SIX days (verse 9)

7 – SEVENTH day (verse 10)

13 – SIX days, SEVENTH day (verse 11)

6 + 7 + 13 = 26

2,000 – SABBATH DAY’S journey (Acts 1:11-12, Joshua 3:3-4 & Numbers 35:5)

2,000 + 26 = 2026

The ultimate cause for global destruction in these last days would be man’s deliberate transgression of God’s everlasting covenant (Isaiah 24:5-6), notably the Sabbath of the Lord, which entails not to travel beyond 2,000 cubits or 0.9 kilometers (Exodus 16:9, Joshua 3:3-4).

MARK 1:15 The TIME IS FULFILLED, and the kingdom of God is at hand: REPENT ye, and BELIEVE the gospel.

TO GOD BE THE GLORY!
