TRUMPETS IN THE SEVENTH MONTH, THE FIRST DAY OF THE MONTH
Zechariah 9:12-14 AMP 12/Return to the stronghold [of security and prosperity], O prisoners who have the hope;
REVIEW WEEKLY BIBLE STUDY #126 I RECEIVE RESTORATION NOW!!!
Even today I am declaring that I will restore double [your former prosperity] to you [as firstborn among nations]. (cross references: Psalm 40:2, Isaiah 40:2) 13/ For I will bend Judah as My bow, I will fit the bow with Ephraim [as My arrow]. And I will stir up your sons, O Zion, against your sons, O Greece, And will make you [Israel] like the sword of a warrior.14/ Then the Lord will be seen [hovering] over them [protecting His people], And His arrow will go forth like lightning; And
the Lord God will blow the trumpet
And will march in the windstorms of the south.
Revelation 1:10 KJV 10/ I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,
This is a reference to the Rapture of the Church.
1 Corinthians 15:50-58
New International Version (NIV)
50/ I declare to you, brothers and sisters, that flesh and blood(A) cannot inherit the kingdom of God,(B) nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.(C) 51/ Listen, I tell you a mystery:(D) We will not all sleep,(E) but we will all be changed(F)— 52/ in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound,(G) the dead(H) will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. 53/ For the perishable(I) must clothe itself with the imperishable,(J) and the mortal with immortality. 54/ When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality,
then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”[a](K)
55/ “Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?”[b](L)
56/ The sting of death is sin,(M) and the power of sin is the law.(N) 57/ But thanks be to God!(O) He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.(P)
58/ Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord,(Q) because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.(R)

Ordinances for the People
1/ “Now these are the ordinances (laws) which you shall set before the Israelites:
2/ “If you purchase a Hebrew servant [because of his debt or poverty], he shall serve six years, and in the seventh [year] he shall leave as a free man, paying nothing.(A) 3/ If he came [to you] alone, he shall leave alone; if he came married, then his wife shall leave with him. 4/ If his master gives him a wife, and she gives birth to sons or daughters, the wife and her children shall belong to her master, and he shall leave [your service] alone. 5/ But if the servant plainly says, ‘I love my master, my wife and my children; I will not leave as a free man,’ 6/ then his master shall bring him to God [that is, to the judges who act in God’s name], then he shall bring him to the door or doorpost. And his master shall pierce his ear with an awl (strong needle); and he shall serve him for life.
7/ “If a man sells his daughter to be a female servant, she shall not go free [after six years] as male servants do. 8/ If she does not please her master who has chosen her for himself [as a wife], he shall let her be redeemed [by her family]. He does not have the authority to sell her to a foreign people, because he has been unfair to her. 9/ If her master chooses her [as a wife] for his son, he shall act toward her as if she were legally his daughter. 10/ If her master marries another wife, he may not reduce her food, her clothing, or her privilege as a wife. 11/ If he does not do these three things for her, then shall she leave free, without payment of money.
Personal Injuries
12/ “Whoever strikes a man so that he dies must be put to death. 13/ However, [a]if he did not lie in wait [for him], but God allowed him to fall into his hand, then I will establish for you a [b]place to which he may escape [for protection until duly tried].(B) 14/ But if a man acts intentionally against another and kills him by [design through] treachery, you are to take him from My altar [to which he may have fled for protection], so that he may be put to death.
15/ “Whoever strikes his father or his mother must be put to death.
16/ “Whoever kidnaps a man, whether he sells him or is found with him in his possession, must be put to death.
17/ “Whoever [c]curses his father or his mother or treats them contemptuously must be put to death.
18/ “If men quarrel and one strikes another with a stone or with his fist, and he does not die but is confined to bed, 19/ if he gets up and walks around leaning on his cane, then the one who struck him shall be left [physically] unpunished; he must only pay for his loss of time [at work], and the costs [of treatment and recuperation] until he is thoroughly healed.
20/ “If a man strikes his male or his female servant with a staff and the servant dies at his hand, he must be punished. 21/ If, however, the servant survives for a day or two, the offender shall not be punished, for the [injured] servant is his own property.
22/ “If men fight with each other and injure a pregnant woman so that she gives birth prematurely [and the baby lives], yet there is no further injury, the one who hurt her must be punished with a fine [paid] to the woman’s husband, as much as the judges decide. 23/ But if there is any further injury, then you shall require [as a penalty] life for life, 24/ [d]eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, 25/ burn for burn, wound for wound, bruise for bruise.
26/ “If a man hits the eye of his male servant or female servant and it is destroyed, he must let the servant go free because of [the loss of] the eye. 27/ And if he knocks out the tooth of his male servant or female servant, he must let the servant go free because of [the loss of] the tooth.
28/ “If an ox gores a man or a woman to death, the ox must be stoned and its meat shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox shall be cleared [of responsibility]. 29/ But if the ox has tried to gore on a previous occasion, and its owner has been warned, but has not kept it confined and it kills a man or a woman, the ox shall be stoned and its owner shall be put to death as well. 30/ If a ransom is demanded of him [in return for his life], then he shall give whatever is demanded for the redemption of his life. 31/ If the ox has gored another’s son or daughter, he shall be dealt with according to this same rule. 32/ If the ox gores a male or a female servant, the owner shall give to the servant’s master thirty shekels of silver [the purchase price for a slave], and the ox shall be stoned.
33/ “If a man leaves a pit open, or digs a pit and does not cover it, and an ox or a donkey falls into it, 34/ the owner of the pit shall make restitution; he shall give money to the animal’s owner, but the dead [animal] shall be his.
35/ “If one man’s ox injures another’s so that it dies, then they shall sell the live ox and divide the proceeds equally; they shall also divide the dead ox [between them]. 36/ Or if it is known that the ox was previously in the habit of goring, and its owner has not kept it confined, he must make restitution of ox for ox, and the dead [animal] shall be his.

Results of Justification
1/ Therefore, since we have been justified [that is, acquitted of sin, declared blameless before God] by faith, [let us grasp the fact that] we have peace with God [and the joy of reconciliation with Him] through our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed). 2/ Through Him we also have access by faith into this [remarkable state of] grace in which we [firmly and safely and securely] stand. Let us rejoice in our [a]hope and the confident assurance of [experiencing and enjoying] the glory of [our great] God [the manifestation of His excellence and power]. 3/ And not only this, but [with joy] let us exult in our sufferings and rejoice in our hardships, knowing that hardship (distress, pressure, trouble) produces patient endurance; 4/ and endurance, proven character (spiritual maturity); and proven character, hope and confident assurance [of eternal salvation]. 5/ Such hope [in God’s promises] never disappoints us, because God’s love has been abundantly poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
