There are three parts to this Feast: (the multitudes promised to Abraham)
The Memorial Blowing of Trumpets, is held on the first day of the 7th month. Two silver trumpets were blown to gather the congregation to the Tabernacle. to hear the reading of the law, and the blessings and curses written in the Song of Moses. Trumpets that sounded seven times, every seven years in the lead up to the Jubilee. (7×7) They are heard in the seven Church Angel Messages, the seven Seals and the seven Trumpets. These trumpets declare the testimonies of the Law and the Lamb. Testimonies that declare Jesus Christ alone is LORD and that there is no God beside him. These trumpets sound to those who first trusted in creeds, but who at the end of time, are gathered into winepress of the wrath of God. Why? So that they might repent of their idolatry and turn to Jesus Christ; who was, and who is, and who is to come, the LORD God Almighty. These Trumpets are heard in the songs of Moses and the Lamb in the Book of Revelation. (Leviticus 23: 22-25) (Number 29:1-6) (Revelation 15: 1-4)
The Feast of Affliction: (The Waters of Affliction) is held on the evening of the 9th day following the trumpets. It was a time when having heard the songs of Moses and the Lamb, and hearing their testimonies, that we are cut to the heart. That our souls are afflicted for the idolatry of having blasphemed Jesus name and testimony in creeds like the trinity, and in other Protestant, Jehovah Witness, Mormon, Islamic, and Jewish doctrines. It is a time when the tribes of the earth shall mourn. (Matthew 24:30) It is a time of repentance first heard in the Apostles Pentecost declaration; Repent and be baptised in the name of Jesus Christ. It is the Spirit of Jesus calling us to the waters of repentance. (Leviticus 23: 26-32) (Number 29:7-11) (Acts 2:36-38)
The Feast of Atonement: (The Blood of Atonement) is held on the evening of the 9th day to the evening of the 10th day following the trumpets. It is a time when the “Jubilee Trumpet” was commanded to be blown, as an ordinance forever throughout Israel’s generations. (Leviticus 25:9) It is a time when the great trumpet declares to God’s Israel; the LORD thy God is the LORD Jesus Christ. (Matthew 24:31) And when the blood of Jesus atonement is placed back upon the altar of our heart, where previously church creeds sat, and where our works replaced the Messiah’s sacrifice. Atonement first promised in the remission of our sin at Pentecost; Repent and be baptised in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sin. Our sin, being the rejection of Jesus Salvation, and the blood of remission, being the forgiveness of that trespass repented. (Leviticus 23: 26-32) (Number 29:7-11) (Acts 2:36-38)
The Feast of Tabernacles begins on the 15th day. Five days after the Jubilee trumpet sounds, and lasts for seven days from Sabbath to Sabbath. It is a period when Israel were to consider their journeys in the wilderness in Moses time. When they understood the depravity of their rebellion, idolatry, and wickedness, and when they fell in the wilderness. It is a time when they took the branches of trees and made shelters, tabernacles to dwell in on their journey to the promised land. In Revelation we see these multitudes with palm branches in their hands. (Leviticus 23: 33-34) (Number 29:12-40) (Revelation 7:9-17)
These have come out of great tribulation and washed their robes white in the blood of the Lamb. These are those who have come through the winepress of the wrath of God. In the sacrifices detailed in the Book of Numbers, we see the number of lambs offered up every day for seven days remain the same. Conversely, we see the numbers of bulls offered, diminish each day until the offering is in balance with the Passover and First-Fruit offerings. Things that reveal Christ’s truth sanctified in us, and mens creeds put to death in our heart and mind. (Number 29:12-40) (Matthew 24:29) (Revelation 7:9-17)
This Feast of Tabernacles and all the pattern of it, are seen in the Book of Revelation, chapters 15 and 16. These reveal the testimony of the tabernacle in heaven cleansed. The LORD is cleaning his testimony in us. Heard in the songs of Moses and the Lamb, two trumpets that begin the Feast of Tabernacles. In the midst, the Jubilee trumpet. At the end, the seven plagues of Revelation, which purge the idolatry and strong delusion from God’s Word in our heart and mind. The cleansing of the Tabernacle of Christ’s Testimony in us.
Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates? (2 Corinthians 13:5)
But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. (Jeremiah 31:33-34)
