"AD-Vent: WHAT does the 25th REALLY Mean for Jew & Gentile?" - December 2021 New Mexico Prayer Connect Newsletter!
Amplified Bible Jesus’ Birth Foretold 26 Now in the sixth month [of Elizabeth’s pregnancy] the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city in Galilee called Nazareth, 27 to a virgin [a]betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, a descendant of the house of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary. 28 And coming to her, the angel said, “Greetings, favored one! The Lord is with you.” 29 But she was greatly perplexed at what he said, and kept carefully considering what kind of greeting this was. 30 The angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. 31 Listen carefully: you will conceive in your womb and give birth to a son, and you shall name Him Jesus. 32 He will be great and eminent and will be called the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David; 33 and He will reign over the house of Jacob (Israel) forever, and of His kingdom there shall be no end.” 3 A Blessed Advent Season, Hanukkah, Winter & Christmas, NO, It's NOT February/March (Adar on The Biblical Calendar), but most 3-5 year olds can add 2+2=4, so if Mary conceived by The Holy Spirit, according to the above portion of Holy Script and gave birth to The Christ/Messiah/Anointed ONE 9 months later, we're looking at December 25th as a very logical time for Jesus' birth. Interestingly enough, EVERY Year, starting on the 25th of Kislev, which occurs in November-December on the Gregorian calendar and is sometimes known as the month of dreams, the Nation of Israel Celebrates The Feast Of Dedication or what's also known as The Festival Of Lights, Chunakah! Around 167 B.C. Antiochus "Ephanes" (God Manifest) desecrated The Temple in Jerusalem, by ordering a pig slaughtered on the altar and erected an image of the Greek god Zeus as the new point of worship, so a godly priest, Mattathias and his five sons, one who was named Judah and was nicknamed "Maccabee" (the hammer) reacted with holy indignation, drove out the Syrians and recaptured The Holy Site Of God's Presence, but to rededicate It, they only had enough oil to light the golden menorah (lampstand) for one day, miraculously though, God not only gave them the victory in the battle, but He had the oil burn for eight days, so "A Great Miracle Happened There!" On Tuesday, December 21st, at 8:59 A.M. MT in New Mexico, the winter solstice begins, when the Earth tilts its axis, which makes one half of Earth point away from the Sun and the other half points towards it. Solstice comes from Latin sol "sun" and sistere "to stand still," so loosely translated means "sun stand still" and it's the shortest day of the year! Folklore tells us that winter comes yawning, so my questions to you would be, As the day gets shorter, will you lean towards or away from The Son and Will you 'Be Still & Come To Experientially Know That HE IS GOD?' John 10:22-23 Amplified Bible Jesus Asserts His Deity 22 At that time the [a]Feast of Dedication took place at Jerusalem. 23 It was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple [area] in [b]Solomon’s portico. Believe it or not, my title has meaning. A.D., the term, Ante Christum natum, denoted the years before the birth of Jesus Christ and was first proposed in the year 525 by Dionysius Exiguus, a Christian monk. It is the Latin equivalent to the English "BC" and used to label or number years in the Julian and Gregorian calendars, meaning to, toward or before. Ads are to inspire you to action, get you involved, plus should uniquely identify, personalize, be relevant, useful, competitive and intelligently drive awareness, to increase, improve your customer (consumer) base acceptability through visuals, so you can reach, grow, achieve your goals and engage your audience. Vent , simply means (OPENING) to express ideas, give utterance or release, you let something out, a strong emotion, energy, to let off steam, saying what's on your mind, give free expression to (a strong emotion), get it off your chest or voice your opinion, so as to reduce our stress levels. The right way of venting can connect you to a supportive, positive, and understanding community, making it easy to share your REAL feelings with people who care. In Latin, ventus, French, eventur, vent, Spanish, viento ("wind") and ventana ("window"), all point to the biblical reality of The Holy Spirit or Breath Of God! Can we, as Gentiles & Jews, inspire one another to a right relationship with God and each other, according to His Holy & Precious Word, so that we may enter into His FULLNESS? THIS Is The Will Of GOD for ALL of us, because He wishes that NONE would perish and that ALL would Come Unto HIM, especially during this very special time and season! May The Light Of The World, The ONE Who celebrated this time, allow you to enter into The Holy Spirit of THIS Festive Season, so that YOU Can BE 'The Light Of The World' and Let Your LIGHT Shine.

WHY Be A Christian? November 2021 NM Prayer Connect Newsletter!
ATTENTION ALL Confessing Born-Again Christians, When 70% of 'so called' Believers say, 'Jesus Is NOT The ONLY Way To The Father' and 62% DON'T Believe In The Holy Spirit (READ The Articles Below) + 80-90% NEVER Read The New Testament, what do we expect to get out of this mess? After visiting Ground Zero @ The Trinity Site last month for prayer and facilitating the NM Strategic Prayer Group in ABQ with Alistair Petrie (WATCH His Presentation Via The Link Provided), besides the pandemic and the whole world in a tailspin, it's no wonder The Bible warns us about being tossed to and fro by every wind of doctrine. We're The Church, The Bride Of Christ and supposed to be The Salt & Light to this present world of darkness, but if we are not rooted and grounded In The Word/JESUS, The ONE Who Says In The Gospel Of John 14:6, "I AM The WAY and The TRUTH and The LIFE; No One Comes To The Father EXCEPT By (Through) ME." SURELY we are ALL Called, like Our Father Abraham, to Believe GOD and Take HIM @ HIS Word, TRUELY Believing & Not Doubting, allowing God to Credit us with His Righteousness, because ours is as filthy rags! There MUST Be A Sense Of URGENCY in the day and hour we're living in, since we are supposed to be making STRAIGHT The Way Of The Lord's Second Coming, bringing clarity to a sick and dying world, not making it more of a ball of confusion. JESUS/Yeshua IS Our ONLY Salvation, HIS Is The ONLY Name Under Heaven, BY Which We MUST Be SAVED, Not ANYONE Else. I'll leave you with God's Word of WARNING & Encouragement and ASK that you join us in PRAYER for God's Will & WAY to Be Done Here in New Mexico, On This Earth, as It Is In HEAVEN! Revelation 22:11-21 AMP - Let the one who does wrong, still do wrong; and the one who is filthy (vile, impure), still be filthy; and the one who is righteous (just, upright), still be righteous; and the one who is holy, still be holy.” “Behold, I (Jesus) am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to each one according to the merit of his deeds (earthly works, faithfulness). I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End [the Eternal One].” Blessed (happy, prosperous, to be admired) are those who wash their robes [in the blood of Christ by believing and trusting in Him—the righteous who do His commandments], so that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter by the gates into the city. Outside are the dogs [the godless, the impure, those of low moral character] and the sorcerers [with their intoxicating drugs, and magic arts], and the immoral persons [the perverted, the molesters, and the adulterers], and the murderers, and the idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices lying (deception, cheating). “I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you and to give you assurance of these things for the churches. I am the Root (the Source, the Life) and the Offspring of David, the radiant and bright Morning Star.” The [Holy] Spirit and the bride (the church, believers) say, “Come.” And let the one who hears say, “Come.” And let the one who is thirsty come; let the one who wishes take and drink the water of life without cost. I testify and warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book [its predictions, consolations, and admonitions]: if anyone adds [anything] to them, God will add to him the plagues (afflictions, calamities) which are written in this book; and if anyone takes away from or distorts the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away [from that one] his share from the tree of life and from the holy city (new Jerusalem), which are written in this book. He who testifies and affirms these things says, “Yes, I am coming quickly.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. The grace of the Lord Jesus (the Christ, the Messiah) be with all [the saints—all believers, those set apart for God]. Amen.
