It is a wonder that the Sabbath truth has
come to light in these last days. My
have I underestimated the depth of spiritual darkness in this world. The term “sheep” aptly describes the follower
of Yahushua and the term “wolf” well defines the teacher who purposely denies
the authority of the Good Shepherd.

I stumbled across the luni-solar Sabbath on
the internet a couple years ago. Perhaps
“stumbled across” is not the most accurate way to put it. Looking back it would be more correct to say
Yah brought it to my attention. For a
fleeting spell of time this strange subject captured my curiosity. The concept of the 7^th day Sabbath
being dictated by the cycle of the moon was so foreign. I printed off several webpages of information
pertaining to the True Sabbath only to throw it in the trash several months
later along with the collected dust. The
Holy Spirit had me on but I shook the hook of truth from my mind and swam on in
the river of deception. After all,
deception was the habitat I was most comfortable with. Of course I didn’t perceive deception as
being a lie otherwise it wouldn’t be deception.
Such is the nature of the perverted gospel in the form of dogmas and
creeds of the organized churches, sects, isms, cults, etc. made in the image of
men.

Up until as recently as a week ago I was a
member of the Seventh Day Adventist Church.
I joined this organization in the winter of 1999. I didn’t belong to any denomination during
the many years which preceded this transition.
After several years of being involved in the SDA I lost my first
love. Attendance in church services and
participation in various evangelistic outreaches had become mechanical
motions. I lost my passion for
truth. The dogma I was hearing and
saying over and over again had grown stale.
I didn’t know it but I needed fresh spiritual food, food I could sink my
teeth into, food that would once again energize my heart and mind. Please understand, when I first came into the
SDA I was thrilled with all the new truths I was learning. The spiritual fare was wonderful compared to
what I had eaten most of my life. But
with time I became comfortable and this grew into complacency and complacency
gave way to stagnancy. I had fallen
under the Laodicean spell. I assumed
there was no further truth or clearer understanding to be had and rested in my
deceitful cocoon. “Praise Yah”. He always places new surprises in our path.

About six months ago a good friend of
mine who is also a member of the SDA but who attends at a different church
location than I asked me if I would like to study the luni-solar Sabbath with
him. After much study he made a decision
to accept this wonderful truth about a year before I did. I told Doug I had fleetingly looked into it
over a year ago and gave him a superficial excuse that it was too complicated
and respectfully declined his offer. In
the back of my mind I thought it was quite the coincidence that unbeknownst to
either of us we were initially exposed to the true Sabbath at close to the same
time. A couple months went by and Doug
approached me on the issue once again. I
brushed him off. A couple more months
went by and Doug cast out his line one more time. I bit on the hook and thought to myself; Ok I
am just going to get to the bottom of this.
If I take the time and effort to investigate with an honest and open
mind Yah will be faithful to show me whether or not the lunar Sabbath is
true. It’s tempting to fall into the
trap of bigotry and bias especially when the majority of adherents to a
particular creed are in agreement. No
church member feels comfortable when taking a position that is at odds with the
status quo. I would be lying if I said I
didn’t struggle with personal prejudice, preconceived ideas and the thought of
what others in the church would think if I were to accept the true timing of
the 7^th day Sabbath. I thank
Yah for helping me to be objective and open.
Looking back this investigation was a win-win endeavor. I learned and am still learning about things
I would never learn otherwise. A more in
depth knowledge of the history of the church; the SDA, the RCC, etc. has been
very challenging, troubling yet rewarding.
Studying the Bible and history has never been as thrilling and
invigorating as it is now. I just want
to scream “Hallelujah”. If you haven’t
read “The Two Republics” by A.T. Jones I strongly encourage you to do so. This is just one of many fabulous historical
books that are available. I pray this
lowly painter and drywaller will never again take at face value what the so
called experts and authorities of any organized religion teach and preach as
gospel. I don’t care how much
theological background they have or how many seminaries they’ve attended. True knowledge comes from the Spirit of Yah
and it can only be attained with an honest and open heart which is a gift of
the Creator. All other knowledge is
based on man’s wisdom and philosophy which more often than not will be found
lacking.

I cannot give enough thanks and praise to Yah
for inspiring the creators of websites such as WLC. Keep these folks in our prayers and help them
to continually strive for Yah’s excellence in how the truth for this time is to
be communicated to those who are seeking the whole truth and nothing but the
truth. Study on Christian soldiers and
when the Spirit convicts you of the truth grab hold and don’t let go!
