To keep us on the edge of our seats, Dr. Barry and Mr. Bones. Any time during the month of Elul, now till Oct. 15. No specific date suggested, more a teaching about the month of Elul and Psalm 27. Worth watching anyway, and short, 12:48.
Interesting connections for September 26 this year.
September 26, 2024 is Elul 23 on the Chabad calendar. September 11, 2001 was also Elul 23 on the Chabad calendar. Could this be a "9th of AV" repeat moment for the USA? Destruction?
According to one website, the feast of oil is 7 days before the Feast of Trumpets or Elul 23. I have often wondered how/if Jesus might fulfill the Feast of Oil.
The UN "Summit of the Future" event ends on 9-23 ... 3 days later is 9-26.
There are 170 days between April 8 eclipse and September 26 (Personally, I prefer 153 days after which is this Saturday, 9-7)
Pope Francis Kisses Hand of Muslim Imam, Declares All Religions ‘Have a Role to Play’:
Pope Francis is embarking upon a 12-day trip through four nations in Southeast Asia and Oceania.
His intent with the voyage is to pledge theCatholic Churchwill combat religious violence while inspiring stronger ties to other religions.
On Thursday, theAssociated Pressreported the Pope made his first stop in Jakarta, Indonesia, home to the largest Muslim population in the world.
A notable moment came when the Pope — in a wheelchair — appeared next to Indonesia’s grand imam, Nasaruddin Umar, at the entrance to the “Tunnel of Friendship” which connects Istiqlal Mosque to the nearby Catholic Cathedral, Our Lady of the Assumption.
It was here that the Pope received a kiss on the head from the Imam while kissing his hand in response.
The AP reported the Pope made comments that same day, saying religions “have a role to play in helping everyone pass through the tunnels of life with our eyes turned towards the light.”
The Pope stressed a message of unity between Catholics andMuslimsin further remarks.
While he does not say it outright, the implication is that there are multiple ways to God.
In John 14:6,“Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'”
While the Pope should not be openly hostile to a people who welcome him, he should pay heed to the Bible’s message in constructing his own greeting. When we cultivate our own spirituality through something other than Jesus Christ, we are not following his word.
...the Pope should never say or imply that there are any other paths than Christ.
@patrician He is correct, all religions have a role to play and they are playing it out perfectly according to God's Plan. May Gods Will be done now and forever.
This isn't really rapture news, but it was a concern I had about leaving this earth and what would happen to my pet Roco. Roco passed away this afternoon at 5:30. He'd been suffering for several months with a bad heart. When he passed it was peaceful, his heart stopped and he went to be with our other pest waiting at Rainbow Bridge. Hopefully it won't be long until we are all in Heaven together.
@perhapstoday thank you for thinking about me and Roco. If we're out of here in a week, it will be a short loss. I'll need to find another picture for my profile but that could take long time.
@rickjones427 We sure love ours dogs. I’ve lost a number of dogs through the years, and it is so hard. I am praying for you Rick. Our pets are God’s gifts, and we will see them soon.
