Is January the New Year?

 

Did you celebrate the arrival of a new year last night? If you claim to be a follower of Messiah and a member of Yahweh’s People, I humbly ask, why? How many provisions, excuses and changes do the Christian majority need to allow? There’s simply not much left.

How much more like the world can the Body become?
No more biblical holy days. No more Sabbath. No more Law. No more biblical new year either. I often wonder, does anything at all matter anymore?

January 1 is no more the new year than I’m a supermodel. Majority Christianity follows the masses and exalts their own ways above the Creator’s, with great delight. Come out. Be separate. Let’s do better! The clock is ticking. Who will step out of the line and be a set apart, holy People?

Biblical authors wrote endlessly to this point. They called it “going the ways of the nations.” Although most Believers are fully aware of this term, there has been some sort of a disconnect regarding how this has been exactly what has taken place. That’s what deception does. Generation after generation. Tradition after tradition. Millennia later and there’s simply no distinction anymore. No true holiness.

Let us not be guilty of saying with our mouths that we’re living differently than the world yet do every… single… thing that the world does. Consider looking into the Creator’s calendar, won’t you? A new year will arrive as the earth springs up to life! His Passover will arrive and we will celebrate the new life that we've been given! Freedom! His ways are higher than our ways! Let’s leave the ways of the nations and ask for the ancient path. Then, let us choose well and walk in it. (Jeremiah 6:16) Selah.
