The fact is Y'shua/Jesus was conceived on the first day of Channukah and 9 months later, He was born. Today, is the Day that Y'shua was placed inside the womb of the Virgin Mary, by the Holy Spirit of YHVH.
Matthew 1:18-25
18 Now this is how Jesus the Messiah was born. His mother, Mary, was engaged to be married to Joseph. But while she was still a virgin, she became pregnant by the Holy Spirit.
19 Joseph, her fiance being a just man, decided to break the engagement quietly, so as not to disgrace her publicly.
20 As he considered this, he fell asleep, and an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream. "Joseph, son of David," the angel said, "do not be afraid to go ahead with your marriage to Mary. For the child within her has been conceived by the Holy Spirit.
21 And she will have a son, and you are to name him Jesus,/Y'shua* for he will save his people from their sins."6
22 All of this happened to fulfill the Lord's message through his prophet:
23 "Look! The virgin will conceive a child! She will give birth to a son, and he will be called Immanuel* (meaning, God is with us)."7
24 When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord commanded. He brought Mary home to be his wife,
So His Birthday actually comes in the Fall, on the Feast of Tabernacles, the first day of Sukkot, found in the book of Leviticus 23. It is not unknown, neither is on Christmas.
Y'shua is the fullfilmement of G-d's Law. Therefore this makes sense that we were given both His conception and His Birth date, although many claim not to know the actual birthday of the L-rd

ReplyDeleteHowever The Messiah is "The True Light that enlightens every man born into the world".......
"Let There Be Light"!
The 1st Day of Creation:
"The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep, and the Spirit of GOD moved upon the face of the waters." (Gen 1:2)
Then GOD spoke HIS Word into being.......
"Let there be Light"!
And "There was Light".......(Gen 1:3)
And such 'Light' was to be, and is, Eternal!
So it is that Hope is Alive!
Even though this wicked world begins and ends it's day in darkness it is good to realize that the 1st Day of Creation, although begun midst the darkness, ended in 'Light'! (Gen 1:5)
And such 'Light' was not the sun, moon or stars for they were not created until the 4th Day. (Gen 1:14-19)
GOD's Word "Let there be Light" became "The Light which enlightens every man born into the world" and was "the glory The Messiah had with Our Father before the world began".......(John 1:9, 17:5)
LIGHT Begot Light.......
LIKE Begot Like.......
The Messiah, "The Light of the world".......(Jn8:12)
The Messiah, "The beginning of The Creation of GOD".......(Rev1:1, 3:14)
The Messiah, "The Son of The Living GOD".......(John 6:69)
And Our Father, HE "created all things by(of, in and thru) The Messiah".......(Ep3:9)
The 1st Day of Creation.
"And GOD called The Light, Day, and the darkness HE called night. And the evening(darkness) and The Morning(Light) was The 1st Day." (Gen 1:5)
Now if the beginning can not be 'seen' nor understood, then what of the end?
Confusion would reign! And today confusion does reign midst the religious systems of this world, for apart from "The Light" there is only darkness, "the blind leading the blind" ;-(
And the Apostle Paul saw "The Light" that is The Messiah on the road to Damascus:
"At midday, O king, I saw in the way a Light from Heaven, which was above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them which journeyed with me.
And when we had all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.
And I said, Who are you, Master? And The Messiah said, I am Y'shua(for He spoke in the Hebrew tongue) Whom you are persecuting". (Acts 26:13-15)
GOD's Word "Let there be Light" became "The Light which enlightens every man born into the world", "The Light" that is The Messiah, and was "the glory The Messiah had with Our Father before the world began".......(John 1:9, 17:5)
Peace, in spite of the dis-ease(no-peace) that is of this world and it's systems of religion "for the WHOLE(not just a portion) world is under the control of the evil one", indeed and Truth.......(1John 5:19)
Truth IS, a lie never was and is not.......
Abide in Truth....... francis
