ABOUT JUBILEE

LEVITICUS 25:8 thru 32 NIV

8/ " 'COUNT OFF SEVEN SABBATHS OF YEARS-- SEVEN TIMES SEVEN YEARS--SO THAT THE SEVEN SABATHS OF YEARS AMOUNT TO A PERIOD OF FORTY-NINE YEARS. 9/ THEN HAVE THE TRUMPET SOUNDED EVERYWHERE ON THE TENTH DAY OF THE SEVENTH MONTH; ON THE DAY OF ATONEMENT SOUND THE TRUMPET THROUGHOUT YOUR LAND. 10/ CONSECRATE THE FIFTIETH YEAR AND PROCLAIM LIBERTY THROUGHOUT THE LAND TO ALL ITS INHABITITANTS. IT SHALL BE A JUBILEE FOR YOU; EACH ONE OF YOU IS TO RETURN TO HIS FAMILY PROPERTY AND EACH TO HIS OWN CLAN. 11/ THE FIFTIETH YEAR SHALL BE A JUBILEE FOR YOU; DO NOT SOW AND DO NOT REAP WHAT GROWS OF ITSELF OR HARVEST THE UNTENDED VINES. 12/ FOR IT IS A JUBILEE AND IS TO BE HOLY FOR YOU; EAT ONLY WHAT IS TAKEN DIRECTLY FROM THE FIELDS. 13/ " 'IN THIS YEAR OF JUBILEE EVERYONE IS TO RETURN TO HIS OWN PROPERTY. IF YOU SELL LAND TO ONE OF YOUR COUNTRYMEN OR BUY ANY FROM HIM, DO NOT TAKE ADVANTAGE OF EACH OTHER. 15/ YOU ARE TO BUY FROM YOUR COUNTRYMAN ON THE BASIS OF THE NUMBER OF YEARS SINCE THE JUBILEE. AND HE IS TO SELL TO YOU ON THE BASIS OF THE NUMBER OF YEARS LEFT FOR HARVESTING CROPS. 16/ WHEN THE YEARS ARE MANY, YOU ARE TO INCREASE THE PRICE, AND WHEN THE YEARS ARE FEW, YOU ARE TO DECREASE THE PRICE, BECAUSE WHAT HE IS REALLY SELLING YOU IS THE NUMBER OF CROPS. 17/ DO NOT TAKE ADVANTAGE OF EACH OTHER, BUT FEAR YOUR GOD. I AM THE LORD YOUR GOD. 18" 'FOLLOW MY DECREES AND BE CAREFUL TO OBEY MY LAWS, AND YOU WILL LIVE SAFELY IN THE LAND. 19/ THEN THE LAND WILL YIELD ITS FRUIT, AND YOU WILL EAT YOUR FILL AND LIVE THERE IN SAFETY. 20/ YOU MAY ASK, "WHAT WILL WE EAT IN THE SEVENTH YEAR IF WE DO NOT HARVEST OUR CROPS? 21/I WILL SEND YOU SUCH A BLESSING IN THE SIXth YEAR THAT THE LAND WILL YIELD ENOUGH FOR THREE YEARS. 22/ WHILE YOU PLANT DURING THE EIGHTH YEAR, YOU WILL EAT FROM THE OLD CROP AND WILL CONTINUE TO EAT FROM IT UNTIL THE HARVEST OF THE NINTH YEAR COMES IN. 23/ " 'THE LAND MUST NOT BE SOLD PERMANENTLY, BECAUSE THE LAND IS MINE AND YOU ARE BUT ALIENS AND MY TENANTS. 24/ THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY THAT YOU HOLD AS A POSSESSION, YOU MUST PROVIDE FOR THE REDEMPTION OF THE LAND. 25/ " ' IF ONE OF YOUR COUNTRYMEN BECOMES POOR AND SELLS SOME OF HIS PROPERTY, HIS NEAREST RELATIVE IS TO COME AND REDEEM WHAT HIS COUNTRYMAN HAS SOLD. IF, HOWEVER, A MAN HAS NO ONE TO REDEEM IT FOR HIM BUT HE HIMSELF PROSPERS AND ACQUIRES SUFFICIENT MEANS TO REDEEM IT, 27/ HE IS TO DETERMINE THE VALUE FOR THE YEARS SINCE HE SOLD IT AND REFUND THE BALANCE TO THE MAN TO WHOM HE SOLD IT; HE CAN THEN GO BACK TO HIS OWN PROPERTY. 28/ BUT IF HE DOES NOT ACQUIRE THE MEANS TO REPAY HIM, WHAT HE SOLD WILL REMAIN IN THE POSSESSION OF THE BUYER UNTIL THE YEAR OF JUBILEE. IT WILL BE RETURNED IN THE JUBILEE, AND HE CAN THEN GO BACK TO HIS PROPERTY. 29/ "'IF A MAN SELLS A HOUSE IN A WALLED CITY, HE RETAINS THE RIGHT OF REDEMPTION A FULL YEAR AFTER IT'S SALE. DURING THAT TIME HE MAY REDEEM IT. 30/ IF IT IS NOT REDEEMED BEFORE A FULL YEAR HAS PASSED, THE HOUSE IN THE WALLED CITY SHALL BELONG PERMANENTLY TO THE BUYER AND HIS DESCENDANTS. IT IS NOT TO BE RETURNED IN THE JUBILEE. 31/ BUT HOUSES IN VILLAGES WITHOUT WALLS AROUND THEM ARE TO BE CONSIDERED AS OPEN COUNTRY. THEY CAN BE REDEEMED, AND THEY ARE RETURNED IN THE JUBILEE. 32/ " 'THE LEVITES ALWAYS HAVE THE RIGHT TO REDEEM THEIR HOUSES IN THE LEVITICAL TOWNS, WHICH THEY POSSESS.

EVERY CHRISTIAN HAS THE FAVOR OF GOD RESTING UPON THEIR LIFE, JUST AS THE LEVITICAL PRIESTS DID IN THE OLD TESTAMENT.

I PETER 2:9, 10 KJV * 9/BUT YE ARE A CHOSEN GENERATION, A ROYAL PRIESTHOOD, AN HOLY NATION, A PECULAR PEOPLE; THAT YE SHOULD SHEW FORTH THE PRAISES OF HIM

[HIM=YAHWEH/JEHOVAH-WHO CALLLED ALL MANKIND TO SALVATION THROUGH JESUS-WHO GIVES US THE HOLY SPIRIT TO INDWELL OUR MORTAL BODIES. PLEASE REVIEW # 24 "NAMES OF GOD" WEEKLY BIBLE STUDY

ONE GOD IN THREE PERSONS]

WHO HATH CALLED YOU OUT OF DARKNESS INTO HIS MARVELLOUS LIGHT; 10/ WHICH IN TIME PAST WERE NOT A PEOPLE, BUT ARE NOW THE PEOPLE OF GOD: WHICH HAD NOT OBTAINED MERCY, BUT NOW HAVE OBTAINED MERCY.

EPHESIANS 2:11 thru 22 NLT

11/ DON'T FORGET THAT YOU GENTILES USED TO BE OUTSIDERS BY BIRTH. YOU WERE CALLED "THE UNCIRCUMCISED ONES" BY THE JEWS, WHO WERE PROUD OF THEIR CIRCUMCISION, EVEN THOUGH IT AFFECTED ONLY THEIR BODIES AND NOT THEIR HEARTS. 12/ IN THOSE DAYS YOU WERE LIVING APART FROM CHRIST. YOU WERE EXCLUDED FROM GOD'S PEOPLE, ISRAEL, AND YOU DID NOT KNOW THE PROMISES GOD HAD MADE TO THEM. YOU LIVED IN THIS WORLD WITHOUT GOD AND WITHOUT HOPE. 13/ BUT NOW YOU BELONG TO CHRIST JESUS. THOUGH YOU ONCE WERE FAR AWAY FROM GOD, NOW YOU HAVE BEEN BROUGHT NEAR TO HIM BECAUSE OF THE BLOOD OF CHRIST. 14/ FOR CHRIST HIMSELF HAS MADE PEACE BETWEEN US JEWS AND YOU GENTILES BY MAKING US ALL ONE PEOPLE.

HE HAS BROKEN DOWN THE WALL OF HOSTILITY THAT USED TO SEPARATE US. 15/ BY HIS DEATH HE ENDED THE WHOLE SYSTEM OF JEWISH LAW THAT EXCLUDED THE GENTILES. HIS PURPOSE WAS TO MAKE PEACE BETWEEN JEWS AND GENTILES BY CREATING IN HIMSELF ONE NEW PERSON FROM THE TWO GROUPS. 16/ TOGETHER AS ONE BODY, CHRIST RECONCILED BOTH GROUPS TO GOD BY MEANS OF HIS DEATH, AND OUR HOSTILITY TOWARD EACH OTHER WAS PUT TO DEATH. 17/ HE HAS BROUGHT THIS GOOD NEWS OF PEACE TO YOU GENTILES WHO WERE FAR AWAY FROM HIM, AND TO US JEWS WHO WERE NEAR. 18/ NOW ALL OF US, BOTH JEWS AND GENTILES, MAY COME TO THE FATHER THROUGH THE SAME HOLY SPIRIT BECAUSE OF WHAT CHRIST HAS DONE FOR US.

EVERY NATION IN CHRIST THAT HOLDS FAST TO BIBLICAL TEACHING/INSTRUCTIONS, IN THE BIBLE, IS A NATION HOLY UNTO GOD, AS WE JUST READ IN THE ABOVE SCRIPTURE 1st PETER 2:9 KJV. IT IS ALSO A NATION BLESSED BY GOD, AS WE READ IN PSALMS 33:12 KJV-BLESSED IS THE NATION WHOSE GOD IS THE LORD. [LORD=YAHWEH/JEHOVAH-OLD TESTAMENT* YAHSHUA/JESUS CHRIST IS THE LORD-NEW TESTAMENT & THEY ARE BOTH ONE AND THE SAME GOD.]

SEE WEEKLY BIBLE STUDY#24 "NAMES OF GOD"

"THE TIME IS NOW", FATHER GOD IS SAYING TO HIS PEOPLE WHO LOVE HIM AND KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS; FOR YOU TO BE MIRACULOUSLY BLESSED; SPIRITUALLY, PHYSICALLY, MENTALLY, AND MATERIALLY.

JOHN 14:15NKJV* "IF YOU LOVE ME, KEEP MY COMMANDANTS.
I CORINTHIANS 2:9, 10 NLT* 9/ "NO EYE HAS SEEN, NO EAR HAS HEARD, AND NO MIND HAS IMAGINED WHAT GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM." 10/ BUT WE KNOW THESE THINGS BECAUSE GOD HAS REVEALED THEM TO US BY HIS SPIRIT, AND HIS SPIRIT SEARCHES OUT EVERYTHING AND SHOWS US EVEN GOD'S DEEP SECRETS.

RIGHT NOW, IN THIS SEASON, FATHER GOD IS GIVING ALL OF HIS PEOPLE EQUAL OPPORTUNITY [ESPECIALLY THE POOR AND DISENFRANCHISED; THOSE WHO ARE NOW, ALONG WITH THOSE WHO HAVE PREVIOUSLY BEEN DENIED EQUAL RIGHTS, PRIVILEGES, AND OPPORTUNITIES FROM THE PRESENT WORLD'S SYSTEM THAT IS SPEEDILY APPROACHING THE END OF IT'S AGE, "END TIMES"], TO RECEIVE HIS SUPERNATURAL BLESSING AND FAVOR, THAT HE [GOD] IS POURING OUT NOW. AND, FOR THOSE WHO HAVE LOST HOUSES, AND LAND, AND FAMILY, OR LOVED ONES, FOR THE SAKE OF FOLLOWING JESUS, YOU SHALL RECEIVE A HUNDREDFOLD BLESSING. NOW IS THE TME, AND THE TIME IS NOW!!!

MARK 10:28 thru 30 KJV * 28/ THEN PETER BEGAN TO SAY UNTO HIM, LO, WE HAVE LEFT ALL, AND HAVE FOLLOWED THEE, 29/ AND JESUS ANSWERED AND SAID, VERILY I SAY UNTO YOU; THERE IS NO MAN THAT HATH LEFT HOUSE, OR BRETHREN, OR SISTERS, OR FATHER, OR MOTHER, OR WIFE, OR CHILDREN, OR LANDS, FOR MY SAKE, AND THE GOSPELS, 30/ BUT HE SHALL RECEIVE AN HUNDREDFOLD NOW IN THIS TIME, HOUSES, AND BRETHERN, AND SISTERS, AND MOTHERS, AND CHILDREN, AND LANDS, WITH PERSECUTIONS; AND IN THE WORLD TO COME ETERNAL LIFE.

JESUS TELLS US IN THE SCRIPTURE ABOVE, THAT WE WILL RECEIVE THE BLESSING WITH PERSECUTION, OR SUFFERING, AS WE FOLLOW HIM. BUT, THE FOLLOWING SCRIPTURE ASSURES US THAT THE SUFFERING WE ENDURE CAN'T EVEN BE COMPARED TO THE GLORIOUS BLESSING GOD WILL REVEAL IN US.

ROMANS 8:18 KJV * FOR I RECKON THAT THE SUFFERINGS OF THIS PRESENT TIME ARE NOT WORTHY TO BE COMPAIRED WITH THE GLORY WHICH SHALL BE REVEALED IN US.

BE BLESSED!!!
