I have a prayer:

My prayer is that I will be ever more in tune with the harmonics created by God throughout the universe. Throughout all of God’s creation I see harmony. Nature is like an orchestra of unfathomable proportions. Everything in nature is singing in tune with the music ordained by the Creator . The only ones with discordant voices seem to be those of mankind. In nature we are familiar with biological and seasonal cycles of many kinds that unceasingly follow the calendars of the Creator.

A fateful day in ancient history:

Until the end of king Solomon God’s People were following the reckoning of time instituted by God from the beginning of time, and more particularly as reckoned by that which was created on the Fourth Day of the creation week. Then there was a change. The new king of Israel was jealously fearful that his people would turn away from him and return to the king of Judah. Because of that this new king arranged to change the calendar such that his people would no longer be reminded of the three annual Feasts ordained by God and upon which God’s People were to go up to Jerusalem for to worship together. The story is found in 1 Kings 12. KJV states that the king made two golden calves. The corresponding Hebrew words, however, may well be in reference to two different calendars - rather than to two calves.

As a consequence of this action of king Jeroboam, son of Nebat, we have lost track of what exact year we are living in relative to the beginning of the creation. And, notice, Jeroboam, son of Nebat, throughout the recorded history of the kings of Judah and Israel, is being constantly referenced as the most evil, or as the most sinful, of all the kings of Judah and Israel. I for one believe we may have reason for believing that Jeroboam is being thus referenced because of his changing God’s calendar and because of the unavoidable disorientation relative to God’s timing that must follow as a consequence thereof.

Additional blessings inherent in Daniel 7:25?

As Seventh-day Adventists we have learned to put much emphasis upon a very similar series of events of prophecy recorded in Daniel 7:25, have we not? Perhaps there is more significance to this passage than what we have previously recognized? Is there a connection between king Jeroboam and papal calendar changes we have learned to recognize by means of Daniel’s prophecy? In essence, when we are consenting to follow another calendar than the one being taught in the Holy Scriptures from the beginning of time, it seems that we may in fact be following in the footsteps of king Jeroboam, son of Nebat, does it not?

I for one firmly believe that God has tremendous blessings in store for anyone who is willing to do his or her best in tuning into the frequency of our Creator, and more particularly by getting back into the reckoning of time as given us by our Creator. As Seventh-day Adventists we have been experiencing tremendous blessings by taking one step in the right direction by resting upon the Seventh Day and keeping it holy as per the Fourth Commandment. What additional blessings might some of us wish to realize for ourselves by taking some further steps in this same direction? Might there be a blessing in not being totally disoriented as to the time frame of our Creator?

7-7-7 or 6-6-6?

Today is the first of the two Sabbaths of special prayers during this OGR event. Next Sabbath is the 7-7-7 Sabbath as dated in the Roman Catholic Church Calendar of Pope Gregorian. More specifically, the next Sabbath is the 7th Day of the 7th Month in the 2007th Year after Caesar Tiberius per the Gregorian calendar. The name Tiberius comes from the river Tiber that flows through Rome and the meaning of the name Tiberius is closely related to the words holy and sanctified. It is well known that in the Roman Catholic Church the numbers 3, 6, and 9, as well as multiples of the same, are very celebrated numbers. Thus, for instance, the number 666 as found in the words VICARIUS FILII DEI in the papal tiara. Well, we are now living in the beginning of the 3rd millennium of this Roman Catholic calendar which has its true basis, not upon the birth of Yeshua the Messiah as generally believed, but upon Caesar Tiberius. Thus the 7-7-7 date is the very first such event in this third millennia of Roman time reckoning. No doubt this is a most significant date for the powers behind the Roman Catholic Church, or do I not have a valid basis for such a presumption?

How about the Sabbath today, “6-30-7″ or “June 30, 2007?”

Let’s consider today’s date from a slightly different angle: Today is the day that completes the Sixth month, isn’t it? In the new Roman Catholic reckoning of week days as generally used in Europe this Day is also the Sixth Day of the Week, is it not? (Additionally 30 = 5 x 6.) Accordingly, when today ends, the 1st full 6 years and 6 months of the 3rd millennium of the Roman Catholic calendar comes to its end at the end of the 6th Day of the Roman Catholic week.

Next Sabbath completes an important 666 date!

So what does that make the point in time at the end of the next Sabbath – and the subsequent Sunday? That point in time completes the first 6 full days, 6 full months, and 6 full years of the 3rd millenium, does it not? In a very real sense that Sunday may be considered in terms of the 1st completed 6-6-6 in this 3rd millennium, correct? I wonder whether this date might not be an even more significant date than is 7-7-7 for some key powers behind the Roman Catholic Church?

What are the corresponding Biblical dates?

So what are the biblical dates of these two Sabbaths? Well, simply put, this Sabbath is the 13th Day (full moon) of the 4th Moon of the biblical year. Next Sabbath is the 20th Day of the same 4th Moon. I am not aware of any particular biblical Feast day being associated with these Sabbaths.

How may this be important for us today?

If by this planetary get together, OGR, we can truly become anointed by the light shed upon us by the Holy Spirit, such that we allow Him to be in fact our Helper who is cleansing us from our sins (our missed points re e.g. God’s own time keeping,) then I believe this OGR event will truly become a powerful tool in the hand of our Creator for sanctifying His own Sons and Daughters.

Perhaps some of us will even be willing to cease suffering from the consequences and curses of participating in said sins of Jeroboam, son of Nebat, that have been upon us now for I believe 2960 years, more or less? It would be about time, would it not?

Perhaps this could be a time in preparation for an event similar to the one recorded regarding Elijah and the 400 prophets of Baal in 1 Kings 18, or perhaps for an event similar to the one recorded regarding king Josiah in 2 Kings 23?
