The truth revealed in the Holy Bible. There is a connection between The Feasts of the Lord, the harvests of Israel and the resurrection of life. The three topics are deeply incorporated with each other in the scriptures. God has a planned resurrection for each and every human being. Do you know which one you will have?
I became concerned about what the world really needed to know. I found that the doctrine that I am to put forth in this book, is truly the meat of the Holy Bible. There are some that know and understand this and many that just don’t see it. I strongly feel that it is my loyalty to the true, uncorrupted translation of the King James Version of the Bible that has allowed me to pick up a deeper meaning of the scriptures that God has planned for mankind to know.
God has revealed the truth of the scriptures to me and He has called upon me to write this book. The teachings of this book are very important for all to understand but not crucial to anyone’s salvation. I hope that all whom read will be blessed by this teaching of The Feasts, The Harvest and the Resurrection.
Excerpt
1 Corinthians 15: 20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
Paul, in 1 Corinthians 15, tells a reader that Jesus Christ is the firstfruits of them that slept. If one were to ask who was sleeping, then one would have to conclude that this was all those that had died before Christ died that were waiting for their messiah to come. These were those that lived their life for God and trusted Him that He was going to send the messiah. One can see in verse 23, God has an order. He resurrects all of mankind in an order. Yes, all of mankind that has ever lived will have a resurrection! This also means that there is more than one phase in the Resurrection of Life. There is a verse in John 5:29 that states that there are only two resurrections. The Resurrection of Life and the Resurrection of Damnation. The Resurrection of Life has three phases similar to the traditional Jewish harvest. This will be explained a little later.
Isaiah 26:19 “Thy dead men shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.”
Jesus descended down to the center of the earth and gathered the Old Testament Saints and took them captive and led them, already in captivity, captive to victory as they were resurrected and ascended to heaven with God the Son! Praise the Lord! Notice in Matthew 27:52-53 how the Old Testament Saints had resurrected after Jesus and walked into the city of Jerusalem. That would be amazing to see King David, Isaiah and Jeremiah with the many other famous prophets walking through Jerusalem greeting people.
Matthew 27: 52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, 53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
It probably wasn’t long after the saints were resurrected that Jesus then led them to heaven. One can read in John 20:14 that Jesus was about to ascend up after speaking with Mary. The Feast of First Fruits was fulfilled and once again on the exact day by Jesus Christ as He resurrected from the dead. His victory over death guarantees all Christians a resurrection to eternal life someday as well.
John 20:14 “And when she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus. 15 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? Whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away. 16 Jesus saith unto her, Mary. She turned herself, and saith unto him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master. 17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.”
