Why Keep Yah’s High Sabbaths?
By
Dr James A Robertson
Today is the Feast of Trumpets or Day of Trumpets, I am at home observing it.
I started keeping the High Sabbaths of the Almighty Creator, Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, that is Passover, Pentecost, Day of Trumpets, Day of Atonement, First Day of the Feast of Tabernacles and Great Day of the Feast of Tabernacles about 16 years ago. No strong motivation, just read about them being a commandment, met some people who observed them and chose to observe them as well.
I regularly come into contact with people who have excuses for not keeping these Feasts and Fasts, most frequently because they either do not think ahead to take leave or they do not care enough to take leave, in other words, that they see other things as more important.
That is good and well but why should one keep these days?
Well, very simplistically, we are commanded to keep Yah’s Sabbaths (including and specifically His Seventh Day Sabbath on Saturdays) – so IF you fear His judgements you should keep these days (as well as observing Saturday as a Sabbath.
But that is NOT really the fundamental reason to keep these days. The fundamental reason is well presented in 1 John 5:3 in the Bible “For this is the love of Yah, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome,”.
So, IF you love Yah you will keep His Commandments. As simple as that!
And it is NOT difficult, I have certainly found over the years that it is not that difficult, just requires some commitment and some self-discipline – put it in your diary at the start of the year, book leave if appropriate and then, JUST DO IT!
If you aspire to having a close relationship with Father Yah then freely and willingly OUT OF LOVE, KEEP His Commandments including keeping His Saturday Sabbath and the six High Sabbaths mentioned above.
If you aspire to becoming Yah’s Friend (the highest rank a human can have on Earth today), then part of being a Friend is that you observe Yah’s special days. It is that simple!
If you are not sure of the dates then download the calendar from https://www.qodesh.co.za/ or search on the Internet for “Jewish Holidays” – the dates on the Julian calendar float every year because they are linked to the cycles of the Moon and there is an adjustment every few years to compensate for the fact that there are thirteen lunar cycles in a period slightly longer than a 365 day year. Different sources may differ with regard to the dates to the tune of a day or so but the main thing is to ask Father Yah to help you find the correct dates and then observe those dates with rigour every year.
What that looks like in my case is that I write those dates into my diary early in the year and apply for leave. I encourage you to do the same. Certainly IF you desire to please Yah you need to do this and IF you aspire to becoming His Friend it is VITAL that you do this.
May Yah, The Almighty Creator, bless you and keep you and make His face to shine upon you and give you His peace.
May Yah judge me severely and correct me harshly and show me the level of my present deception and how to correct it with regard to everything that I write and publish.
Warm regards and blessings,
