SEDUCTIVE FESTIVALS AND CEREMONIES (AUDIO)
In times of Holiday festivities, ministers, please don’t forget to tell your church congregations that the Ukraine has asked the United State to come and prevent Russia from invading their territories, as threats of global tensions are increasing. Friday 11/19/2021
WASHINGTON — American intelligence officials are warning allies that there is a short window of time to prevent Russia from taking military action in Ukraine, pushing European countries to work with the United States to develop a package of economic and military measures to deter Moscow, according to American and European officials.
Russia has not yet decided what it intends to do with the troops it has amassed near Ukraine, American officials said, but the buildup is being taken seriously and the United States is not assuming it is a bluff.
Seductive Festivals and Ceremonies
Editor: Val Gunter
The greatest treasure anyone can discover is the LORD’S Righteousness, where the ALMIGHTY gives us instructions on how to live. To secure ADONAI’S truth in one’s heart is the meaning of life itself and should be their lifetime goal.
Matthew 6:33
(AMP)
33 But seek (aim at and strive after) first of all His kingdom and His righteousness (His way of doing and being right), and then all these things taken together will be given you besides.
Becoming a believer in the Jewish Messiah doesn’t mean we have a religion that covers sin, but rather, we have decided to join a righteous King’s army to aid in destroying a demonic Kingdom that threatens the Salvation of mankind. Our weapon of choice is to fight with light, instead of wrestling with physical beings. Our obedience to the Messiah creates a place for His presence, expelling Darkness with the glory of His Holiness.
Few may realize that the prime directive of the satanic kingdom is to get the participation of the Church in its satanic ceremonies and observances. One of the greatest plans from Satan’s strategic warfare is a kind of deception where he repackaged Pagan rites, then subdues the church to participate in the Pagan rituals.
What they turn out to be are occult ceremonies.
The Hebrew Calendar
Each feast tells its own history about the Jews’ past and future.
The Hebrew Calendar
הַלּוּחַ הָעִבְרִי : HaLuah HaIvri
Our participation in Wiccans style celebration is the same as undermining ADONAI’S written word giving witches official authority to operate openly when we celebrate using their paraphernalia to identify to whom we are giving homage.
Everything Revolves Around the Wiccan Wheel of Feast.
The Wiccan Circle of Pagan Sabbaths
Here, we see “Samhain” is Hallow; “YULE” is the feast of the tree and Deer worship.
2 John 1:10
(AMP)
10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine [is disloyal to what Jesus Christ taught], do not receive him [do not accept him, do not welcome or admit him] into [your] house or bid him Godspeed or give him any encouragement.
Tree Worship
(AMP)
25 The graven images of their gods you shall burn with fire. You shall not desire the silver or gold that is on them, nor take it for yourselves, lest you be ensnared by it, for it is an abomination to the Lord your God.
26 Neither shall you bring an abomination (an idol) into your house, lest you become an accursed thing like it; but you shall utterly detest and abhor it, for it is an accursed thing.
(AMP)
10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine [is disloyal to what Jesus Christ taught], do not receive him [do not accept him, do not welcome or admit him] into [your] house or bid him Godspeed or give him any encouragement.
(AMP)
18 But if you are guided (led) by the [Holy] Spirit, you are not subject to the Law.
19 Now the doings (practices) of the flesh are clear (obvious): they are immorality, impurity, indecency,
20 Idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, anger (ill temper), selfishness, divisions (dissensions), party spirit (factions, sects with peculiar opinions, heresies),
21 Envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like. I warn you beforehand, just as I did previously, that those who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
(AMP)
15 [But] without are the dogs and those who practice sorceries (magic arts) and impurity [the lewd, adulterers] and the murderers and idolaters and everyone who loves and deals in falsehood (untruth, error, deception, cheating).
Satan fights with temptations or some trial to get us thinking of a natural solution. When our goal is righteousness our reward is stored up in Heaven where the records of obedience are added to our account.
Matthew 6:24
(AMP)
24 No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will stand by and be devoted to the one and despise and be against the other. You cannot serve God and Mammon (deceitful riches, money, possessions, or whatever is trusted in).
As our Lord and Savior proclaims, “You cannot serve God and Mammon.”
Who or What is Mammon?
Mammon, the Greek God of Greed Covetousness.
Mammon, a biblical term for riches, is often used to describe the debasing influence of material wealth. The term was used by Jesus in His famous Sermon on the Mount and also appears in The Gospel According to Luke. Medieval writers commonly interpreted it as an evil demon or god. Nov 8, 2021, Encyclopedia Britannica.
The Grouping of demonic spirits causes believers to forsake their pursuit of the Kingdom of GOD and HIS righteousness while aligning their lives with the truth of ADONAI’s Word. We are being separated from worldliness and materialism, which are the doors every foul spirit uses to entangle the Saints.
The devil always has lies to offer. For instance, offering farmers rain, for favorable crops, free from sickness and disease, even well-being and prosperity are the goals of every witch, Wiccans, and Pagan worshippers, and these arts have calendars where certain demigods are worshipped.
The purpose of this illustration is for the body of Christ to be drawn into the ungodly observance of Paganism. This demonstration is only used so that believers are able to see, how for thousands of years the devil tricked ADONAI’S people into keeping the satanic feast alive by participating in Yeshua’s enemy’s social gathering.
At the top of the Wiccan Sabbats is “Samhain,” which aligns with Halloween. Then the feast of “YULE” which is the Pagan’s celebration of the forest religion, and the worship of the Reindeer. Later in the year are Easter and Mayday, which are the ones most people recognize.
Wiccans, Witches, and Forest Religions, all devoted honor and homage to the Reindeer demigod, Cernunnos, thousands of years before the European church copied this celebration and renamed it Christmas.
These ungodly practices conjure demonic spirits into the area where they are worshipped. Demons don’t care if Christians are aware of their activity as long as they are empowering the Kingdom of darkness. They only follow the decorations or symbolism of the old ancient rituals.
Hating the Enemies of Your Faith
Matthew 6:20-34 (NLT)
20 Store your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal.
21 Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be.
22 Your eye is the lamp that provides light for your body. When your eye is good, your whole body is filled with light.
23 But when your eye is bad, your whole body is filled with darkness. And if the light you think you have is actually darkness, how deep the darkness is!
24 No one can serve two masters. For you will hate one and love the other; you will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.
25 That is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life-whether you have enough food and drink, or enough clothes to wear. Isn’t life more than food, and your body more than clothing?
26 Look at the birds. They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns, for your heavenly Father feeds them. And aren’t you far more valuable to him than they are?
27 Can all your worries add a single moment to your life?
28 And why worry about your clothing? Look at the lilies of the field and how they grow. They don’t work or make their clothing.
29 yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are.
30 And if God cares so wonderfully for wildflowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow, he will certainly care for you. Why do you have so little faith?
31 So don’t worry about these things, saying, “What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?”
32 These things dominate the thoughts of the unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs.
33 Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.
34 So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today’s trouble is enough for today.
Psalms 69:18-27
(AMP)
18 Draw close to me and redeem me; ransom and set me free because of my enemies [lest they glory in my prolonged distress]!
19 You know my reproach and my shame and my dishonor; my adversaries are all before You [fully known to You].
20 Insults and reproach have broken my heart; I am full of heaviness and I am distressingly sick. I looked for pity, but there was none, and for comforters, but I found none.
21 They gave me also gall [poisonous and bitter] for my food, and in my thirst they gave me vinegar (a soured wine) to drink.
22 Let their own table [with all its abundance and luxury] become a snare to them; and when they are secure in peace [or at their sacrificial feasts, let it become] a trap to them.
23 Let their eyes be darkened so that they cannot see, and make their loins tremble continually [from terror, dismay, and feebleness].
24 Pour out Your indignation upon them, and let the fierceness of Your burning anger catch up with them.
25 Let their habitation and their encampment be a desolation; let no one dwell in their tents.
26 For they pursue and persecute him whom You have smitten, and they gossip about those whom You have wounded, [adding] to their grief and pain.
27 Let one [unforgiven] perverseness and iniquity accumulate upon another for them [in Your book], and let them not come into Your righteousness or be justified and acquitted by You.
ADONAI has never surrendered HIS command against Sorcery and Magic
(CWSB Dictionary)
H3784. כָּשַׁף kāšap̱: A verb meaning to practice magic, to practice sorcery. It occurs with words of similar meaning in Deuteronomy 18:10 and 2 Chronicles 33:6. While the exact meaning of the word is obscure, it involved the use of supernatural powers that hardened hearts against the truth (Ex. 7:11). Those in Israel who used such powers were to be executed (Ex. 22:18[17]). King Manasseh’s involvement in sorcery to the point of making his children pass through fire, helped lead Judah to the breaking point of God’s patience (2 Chr. 33:6; cf. 2 Kgs. 24:3, 4). Judgment is promised against sorcerers when the Messiah returns (Mal. 3:5). However, in a pagan country, where sorcery was practiced with greater ignorance, Daniel acted to save magicians from death while demonstrating that God’s power exceeded that of the sorcerers (Dan. 2:2).
