    When an honest man discovers he is mistaken, he will either cease being mistaken, or he will cease being honest.

      Pro 18:2 A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.
      Pro 10:23 It is as sport to a fool to do mischief: but a man of understanding hath wisdom.
      Pro 10:31 The mouth of the just bringeth forth wisdom: but the froward tongue shall be cut out.
      Pro 10:32 The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable: but the mouth of the wicked speaketh frowardness.

      Searcy has done well to make these videos and I hope they accomplish the purpose of bringing many out of Babylon, which includes Rome and ALL her Harlot daughters.
      I was saddened by Searcy's assertion that no Christian alive today has a problem with Charles Spurgeon or Billy Graham. Does he count the two perfect in doctrine or practice? BOTH were Freemasons!! Spurgeon was a Calvinist, so saying no Christian has a problem worth Spurgeon is to suggest one Isn't Christian who does! So Calvinism is the gospel according to Searcy. I have a gigantic problem with such an assertion, which this text box couldn't begin to contain.

    Great content. It's crazy to think that the both of you had a huge impact on me and our Church's transition from a typical Sunday Church to a Torah keeping, Shabbat community. Truth or Tradition was a biggie. Thank you both.

      Yahweh did away with what is called Judaism, The New Covenant which was renamed the New Testament. In 70 C.E., the House of Yahweh was destroyed, and no more need for the Levite priests or animal offerings, along with no longer collecting tithes.

      The *lunar* weekly 'sabbath' calendar is a *heresy:* it is the Pharisee Babylonian lunar interpretation of the Biblical calendar, which they re-introduced once they got control of the Temple in 65 AD - during the revolt against Rome.
      They then appointed their own lackey *lunar* calendar High Priest, who presided for three and a half years until *prince* Titus destroyed the Temple. That *lunar* High Priest was the *abomination* seen in the Temple for three and a half years - until they were expelled when the Temple was destroyed in 70 AD. Then for *another* three and a half years, the Romans continued to desimate the Jews and their Edomites proselytes - culminating in the taking of *Masada* at the end of a total *seven* year war.
      *Sound familiar ?*
      The *correct* Biblical calendar is *solar,* but the lunar phases still occasionally align with the solar weekly Sabbaths.
      The Solar calendar is fixed to the Vernal Equinox which is stable on the 20th March until 2043, but was actual two days later in *30AD.*
      Looking at an illustrated Dead Sea Scroll's *solar* calendar with our *current* 20th March Vernal Equinox, the Preparation Day 14th Abib *does* fall on April 3rd. That remains so up until the Vernal Equinox starts to stray again in 2044.
      However, if the sources are correct and *double checking* for *30AD:* the last day of the *previous* Biblical year *on the Vernal Equinox,* took place on *22nd* March - with a *New* Moon that same night *!*
      This means that the 30AD Preparation Day 14th Abib, actually *was* the *5th* of April *that* year, with a *Full* Moon *after* sunset starting the *High Day Passover Sabbath.*
      The Harvard University calendar program *does* actually confirm that *April 5th was also a Friday in 30AD !*
      Therefore Constantine counted *inclusively* to arrive at a *Sunday* resurrection, whereas the Dead Sea Scroll's next *weekly* Sabbath was the *18th Abib on the Roman Tuesday,* giving three full night's and three full days in the tomb - with the Resurrection starting the *Biblical weekly Sabbath !*
      This all aligns with the Dead Sea Scroll's solar calendar *!*
      This scenario actually *simulates* the very *first* Exodus 14th Abib Lamb Preparation *(Crucifixion),* the very *first* full moon Exodus *Passover* on the 15th Abib, and after three *full* days travel into the wilderness to sacrifice (as Moses *repeatedly* requested of Pharaoh), the miraculous *Red Sea crossing (Resurrection)* starting the next *fourth* day 18th Abib *weekly Sabbath !*
      So Constantine got Christ's Passion *week* right, but by *inclusively* counting the three days in the tomb, incorrectly determined the Sunday to be the day of the Resurrection.
      As the Biblical calendar was already long *replaced* with the Babylonian lunar interpretation, and unable to prove the correct Biblical calendar, Constantine felt justified in honouring the Resurrection by making Sunday the first day of his new week. Then when his son *prevented* the bonfires across the empire signalling the start of the Pharisee Babylonian lunar months from Jerusalem (and therefore the weekly lunar 'sabbaths'), Hillel II was forced to choose a Roman week-day for his 'sabbaths', and he chose Saturday - the seventh day of Constantine's NEW week *!*
      The Karaite Jews' ancestors in Babylon were *outside* of the Roman Empire, and they continued with their lunar 'sabbaths' up until today.
      Was Constantine more justified than Hillel and the Pharisees *?*
      *Yes, I think so !*
      However, today our knowledge is increasing exponentially, and we are slowly resolving the Pharisee Biblical calendar deception - which their scribes, up to as late as the 1500's, imbedded into their *standardized Masoretic Text ! ! !*

    • @Michael-pn5lp
      @Michael-pn5lp 11 днів тому

      *Standardized by scribes as late as the 1500's, the Masoretic Text favours the lunar interpretation of the Biblical calendar. (Mysteriously, all earlier source text materiel was 'lost' until the discovery of the Dead Sea Scroll's.)*
      *Yet there is no "thirteenth" lunar month anywhere in the entire Bible - only the "first" to "twelfth" solar months !*
      The Sadducee Temple priests officiated the weekly Sabbaths and High Days at the time of Christ, who never contested their solar calendar.
      In 66 AD, the Pharisee Anti-Roman (Anti-Fasces/ANTIFA) Zealot rebels, seized control of the Temple.
      When challenged for control, 20000 Judean 'Jewish' Edomites assisted the Zealots and murdered most of the Sadducee aristocracy, priests and hundreds of the Jerusalem population.
      The ANTIFA Zealot rebels then appointed their own accursed lunar calendar high priest, who was the last to be seen standing in the Holy Place THREE AND A HALF YEARS later, when the prince of the Roman Empire arrived and desolated Jerusalem, Judea and the Jews in 70 AD - culminating in the taking of Masada another THREE AND A HALF YEARS afterwards.
      Most of the Christians, remembering Christ's words, escaped to Jordan between the two sieges of Jerusalem - the first siege by General Gallus who then strangely withdrew from Judea, and the second by "prince" Titus son of the new Emperor.
      These SEVEN YEARS are the fulfillment of Daniels prophesy.
      Surviving Pharisees continued to enforce their lunar calendar 'sabbaths' and 'high days' in the Synagogues which they controlled - hiding the Sadducee Temple calendar from the people.
      Constantine managed to establish that the Resurrection day was Sunday in 30 AD on their Julian calendar, which actually overlapped the Biblical weekly Sabbath THAT year.
      Unable to establish the Biblical calendar, Constantine changed Sunday to the first day of his new Roman week, in honour of the Resurrection.
      Later Constantine's son Constantius ll, knowing the Pharisee's lunar interpretation of the Biblical calendar to be Babylonian and Canaanite, forbade them from signaling the start of their lunar months across the Empire from Jerusalem.
      As a consequence, Hillel ll was forced to choose a Roman day for their weekly 'sabbath', and he chose Saturday - the seventh day of Constantine's NEW Roman week. The rest of their converluted lunar calendar they kept by Rabbinical calculation.
      Thus the true Biblical Temple calendar was lost until the discovery of the Dead Sea Scroll's.
      The Dead Sea Scroll's solar calendar, corrected to the Sadducee 19th Abib Omer Wave Sheaf, is the correct Biblical calendar revealing the weekly Sabbaths and High Days - which is why the Zionist State of Israel suppressed them for 40 years before they were leaked out on micro fish copies.
      Saturday was only chosen as the Jewish 'sabbath' by Hillel II about 300 years after Christ. He standadised the Jewish calendar. Even before that, the weekly 'sabbath' they kept was the Babylonian lunar 'sabbath' that the Pharisees introduced, and enforced in their Synagogues after the Temple was destroyed in 70 AD.
      The true weekly Sabbath was already hidden by the Pharisees in favour of the Babylonian lunar interpretation of the Biblical calendar. Knowing this, Constantine's son forbade them from signaling their pagan lunar calendar observations across the Roman Empire.
      In honour of the Resurrection Constantine changed Sunday to the first day of his NEW Roman week, and also made Sunday the day of rest.
      Without Roman authority to signal their Babylonian lunar 'sabbath' across the empire, Hillel II and other anti-Christ Jews were forced to choose a Roman weekday as their "new sabbath" and he chose the seventh day of Constantine's NEW Roman week - i.e. "Saturday" !
      Rabbi 'Sages' don't tell you all this, and most Rabbis don't even know this themselves !
      Karaite Jews today still keep the Babylonian lunar calendar, and many Christians have been seduced into doing the same.
      Jericho was an ancient lunar calendar observation city - dedicated to, and named after their moon god.
      The Bible called Jericho the "accursed city" and Joshua was commanded to TOTALLY destroy it and its inhabitants, after marching around it once for six consecutive days, and seven times on the seventh day - i.e. 13 times in total !
      I think that, as opposed to the Second Advent and the "Marriage of the Lamb" that nobody knows when they occur, the earlier "Great and Dreadful Day of the Lord" can actually be established as the 20th March 2031.
      The world will feel that ominous consuming fire approaching, and will run around trying to hide - while Christians enter into their inner prayer "chambers".
      When the Christians come out, there will be no OTHER flesh and blood survivers who will have been burnt up and then trodden "as ash under their feet" -
      crunch...crunch...crunch...
      They will mourn for their friends and relatives who weren't "saved", but SOMETIME afterwards everyone will witness the return of Christ coming from east to west.
      Thereafter, they will be consoled when He "wipes the tears" from their eyes and takes care of them like as "calves of the stall".
      Don't the dead in Christ rise "first" - a great multitude ? Then, those living Christians that are "left" come safely out of their prayer chambers - AFTER the "wrath", to "tread upon the ashes of the wicked who have been removed from the earth" -
      "The righteous shall NEVER be removed but the wicked shall be cut off".
      These "saved" righteous remnant, "lift up their eyes", are "changed in the twinkling of an eye", and meet Christ returning with this great host.....
      The chronology in the Septuagint is a few hundred years longer than in the Masoretic Text:
      The imminent millennial reign of Christ on earth coincides with Yahweh's 2nd 'day' of rest - "and His rest shall be glorious" because His Son is ruling on earth for that 1000-year-day.
      Will we qualify to enter into that glorious "day" of rest ?
      So if Yahweh's first "day" of rest was ALSO a thousand-year-day, in which Adam died at 930 years old "in the same day" he sinned, and Adam was created near the end of the previous 6th 'day', then we are currently near the end of the 13th thousand-year-day which actually ends on the "great and dreadful day of the Lord" on the 20th March 2031. (This date is determined by establishing the 30 AD full moon Passover crucifixion after the Vernal Equinox.)
      There is no doubt that Christ spent three full nights and three full days in the tomb, but how long did He hang on the tree/stake/cross ?

      Surely even in death Yahshua fulfilled every law of His Father ! i.e. Christ could not have been left on the cross overnight for nearly 12 hours before a “morning start of day”, or 18 hours before a “mid-day start of day” !

      The day therefore does indeed start at sunset !
      John 19:31 supports the view that Christ was crucified and died on the afternoon of the 14th Abib "Passover preparation day", was taken down from the cross and placed in the tomb at eventide/sunset demarcating the days. The 15th Abib Passover High Day Sabbath then commenced at sunset.

      Lawfully Christ had to be off the cross by sunset ! He was in the tomb for three full nights and three full days, before His 4th day resurrection - as Lord of the Sabbath Day on the next WEEKLY Sabbath that was the “First of the Sabbaths” after the Passover - Sabbath ZERO initiating the 49 day Feast of Weeks count to Pentecost.
      All the DSS's WEEKLY Sabbaths are correct and the Feast of Unleavened Bread, Day of Trumpets, Day of Atonement and Feast of Tabernacles with it's Last Great Day. However, the Dead Sea Scroll's DIFFER with the Sadducee Temple Feast of Weeks by starting one week AFTER the start of the Temple's Feast of Weeks. Yet Zachariah, John the Baptist's father, officiated in the Temple - so THAT Feast of Weeks is CORRECT - for this reason and other reasons as well.
      *The Temple's Feast of Weeks count to Pentacost started one week earlier than the DSS's Qumran communitie's Feast of Weeks. The Temple's Day of Pentecost was therefore one week earlier.
      How do we know which one of FOUR different Feast of Weeks starting dates is correct for the Day of Pentecost ?
      The solution is in the SUM of the numerals in the eight Sabbath Day DATES of the count - starting the tally from Sabbath Day ZERO.
      The sum of the numerals in the CORRECT eight Sabbath Day DATES will add up to the 7x7 49 days, thus confirming the Sadducees "Aristocratic method" of starting the count - from the weekly Sabbath Day ZERO in the Feast of Unleavened Bread. No other method gives this 49 day tally to the weekly Sabbath before the following 50th Day of Pentecost ! ! !
      This affirms the 18th Abib resurrection Sabbath and the 19th Abib start of the Exodus 40 years into the wilderness - after being taken out of the Egyptian pit through the Red Sea on the previous weekly Sabbath day !
      "AFTER three days" the resurrection was therefore on Sabbath day ZERO - the 18th Abib !
      The 1st Sabbath after - the 25th Abib.
      The 2nd Sabbath after - the 2nd of month two.
      The 3rd Sabbath after - the 9th of month two.
      The 4th Sabbath after - the 16th of month two.
      The 5th Sabbath after - the 23rd of month two.
      The 6th Sabbath after - the 30th of month two.
      The 7th Sabbath after - the 7th of month three.
      18+25+2+9+16+23+30+7=
      130
      1+3+0= 4
      These 13 digits making up the Sabbath day dates, also add up to the 49 day tally to Pentecost on the 50th Day - the 8th of the third Biblical month on our 27th of May:
      1+8+2+5+2+9+1+6+2+3+3+0+7=
      49 !
      4+9=13 !
      12 disciples and Christ the 13th.
      1+3= 4
      Christ was born near the end of the fourth Millennium of this our second Millennial Week of existence. Light "upon the earth" was on the fourth day of Genesis creation week !

Praise God and thank you for your hard work and perseverance. My son shared with me that the scripture that states, “in the last days knowledge will increase” is what we are witnessing with the eyes of the faithful being opened. We are hearing, learning and experiencing things we haven’t before. I have been born again since 1979 and I am understanding things I’ve never understood before!

He reversed it and came up with April 16th as the birth date. He still could not pin down the year of His birth. He said that the 'star' they attributed to the magi following was actually Jupiter (they didn't know it was a planet at the time?) In the terms of the day, Jupiter was the 'king's star' and April's 'sun sign' is Aires, which is the sign of kings according to records from then.

    I have been transitioning my family away from Christmas for years now. I never seem to be able to fully get away from it. Having kids and very traditional family is what has made things a struggle. My husband’s family AND my family both pretty much have this mentality that Christmas is required and a big deal when you have children. I fought tooth and nail over Halloween, but my mother-in-law STILL kept sending my kids money for Halloween candy (when she lived here it was worse though because she would legit go buy them Halloween costumes). We don’t celebrate Halloween. Even my children would say “That is the devil’s day. We don’t celebrate that.” Christmas has been a struggle because family on both sides thinks we are refusing to celebrate the birthday of Jesus. So everyone sends gifts. We get invited to all kinds of festivities. Everyone wants photos of my tree and pictures of the kids opening gifts, but I legit don’t have a dang tree!!! I send the grandmothers photos of the kids opening their gifts though.

      I struggled w the same issues. I would imagine there are a lot of moms and dads that drag their feet just to make peace within the family. Not gonna lie axing Christmas was tough but it helped when I assigned the kids research projects (like "what do red and green have to do with Yeshua ") and then they would show and tell to grandparents. Grandparents still raise eyebrows at our apparent "anti baby jesus" stand but they don't contradict us anymore.

      *Standardized by scribes as late as the 1500's, the Masoretic Text favours the lunar interpretation of the Biblical calendar. (Mysteriously, all earlier source text materiel was 'lost' until the discovery of the Dead Sea Scroll's.)*
      *Yet there is no "thirteenth" lunar month anywhere in the entire Bible - only the "first" to "twelfth" solar months !*
      The Sadducee Temple priests officiated the weekly Sabbaths and High Days at the time of Christ, who never contested their solar calendar.
      In 66 AD, the Pharisee Anti-Roman (Anti-Fasces/ANTIFA) Zealot rebels, seized control of the Temple.
      When challenged for control, 20000 Judean 'Jewish' Edomites assisted the Zealots and murdered most of the Sadducee aristocracy, priests and hundreds of the Jerusalem population.
      The ANTIFA Zealot rebels then appointed their own accursed lunar calendar high priest, who was the last to be seen standing in the Holy Place THREE AND A HALF YEARS later, when the prince of the Roman Empire arrived and desolated Jerusalem, Judea and the Jews in 70 AD - culminating in the taking of Masada another THREE AND A HALF YEARS afterwards.
      Most of the Christians, remembering Christ's words, escaped to Jordan between the two sieges of Jerusalem - the first siege by General Gallus who then strangely withdrew from Judea, and the second by "prince" Titus son of the new Emperor.
      These SEVEN YEARS are the fulfillment of Daniels prophesy.
      Surviving Pharisees continued to enforce their lunar calendar 'sabbaths' and 'high days' in the Synagogues which they controlled - hiding the Sadducee Temple calendar from the people.
      Constantine managed to establish that the Resurrection day was Sunday in 30 AD on their Julian calendar, which actually overlapped the Biblical weekly Sabbath THAT year.
      Unable to establish the Biblical calendar, Constantine changed Sunday to the first day of his new Roman week, in honour of the Resurrection.
      Later Constantine's son Constantius ll, knowing the Pharisee's lunar interpretation of the Biblical calendar to be Babylonian and Canaanite, forbade them from signaling the start of their lunar months across the Empire from Jerusalem.
      As a consequence, Hillel ll was forced to choose a Roman day for their weekly 'sabbath', and he chose Saturday - the seventh day of Constantine's NEW Roman week. The rest of their converluted lunar calendar they kept by Rabbinical calculation.
      Thus the true Biblical Temple calendar was lost until the discovery of the Dead Sea Scroll's.
      The Dead Sea Scroll's solar calendar, corrected to the Sadducee 19th Abib Omer Wave Sheaf, is the correct Biblical calendar revealing the weekly Sabbaths and High Days - which is why the Zionist State of Israel suppressed them for 40 years before they were leaked out on micro fish copies.
      Saturday was only chosen as the Jewish 'sabbath' by Hillel II about 300 years after Christ. He standadised the Jewish calendar. Even before that, the weekly 'sabbath' they kept was the Babylonian lunar 'sabbath' that the Pharisees introduced, and enforced in their Synagogues after the Temple was destroyed in 70 AD.
      The true weekly Sabbath was already hidden by the Pharisees in favour of the Babylonian lunar interpretation of the Biblical calendar. Knowing this, Constantine's son forbade them from signaling their pagan lunar calendar observations across the Roman Empire.
      In honour of the Resurrection Constantine changed Sunday to the first day of his NEW Roman week, and also made Sunday the day of rest.
      Without Roman authority to signal their Babylonian lunar 'sabbath' across the empire, Hillel II and other anti-Christ Jews were forced to choose a Roman weekday as their "new sabbath" and he chose the seventh day of Constantine's NEW Roman week - i.e. "Saturday" !
      Rabbi 'Sages' don't tell you all this, and most Rabbis don't even know this themselves !
      Karaite Jews today still keep the Babylonian lunar calendar, and many Christians have been seduced into doing the same.
      Jericho was an ancient lunar calendar observation city - dedicated to, and named after their moon god.
      The Bible called Jericho the "accursed city" and Joshua was commanded to TOTALLY destroy it and its inhabitants, after marching around it once for six consecutive days, and seven times on the seventh day - i.e. 13 times in total !
      I think that, as opposed to the Second Advent and the "Marriage of the Lamb" that nobody knows when they occur, the earlier "Great and Dreadful Day of the Lord" can actually be established as the 20th March 2031.
      The world will feel that ominous consuming fire approaching, and will run around trying to hide - while Christians enter into their inner prayer "chambers".
      When the Christians come out, there will be no OTHER flesh and blood survivers who will have been burnt up and then trodden "as ash under their feet" -
      crunch...crunch...crunch...
      They will mourn for their friends and relatives who weren't "saved", but SOMETIME afterwards everyone will witness the return of Christ coming from east to west.
      Thereafter, they will be consoled when He "wipes the tears" from their eyes and takes care of them like as "calves of the stall".
      Don't the dead in Christ rise "first" - a great multitude ? Then, those living Christians that are "left" come safely out of their prayer chambers - AFTER the "wrath", to "tread upon the ashes of the wicked who have been removed from the earth" -
      "The righteous shall NEVER be removed but the wicked shall be cut off".
      These "saved" righteous remnant, "lift up their eyes", are "changed in the twinkling of an eye", and meet Christ returning with this great host.....
      The chronology in the Septuagint is a few hundred years longer than in the Masoretic Text:
      The imminent millennial reign of Christ on earth coincides with Yahweh's 2nd 'day' of rest - "and His rest shall be glorious" because His Son is ruling on earth for that 1000-year-day.
      Will we qualify to enter into that glorious "day" of rest ?
      So if Yahweh's first "day" of rest was ALSO a thousand-year-day, in which Adam died at 930 years old "in the same day" he sinned, and Adam was created near the end of the previous 6th 'day', then we are currently near the end of the 13th thousand-year-day which actually ends on the "great and dreadful day of the Lord" on the 20th March 2031. (This date is determined by establishing the 30 AD full moon Passover crucifixion after the Vernal Equinox.)
      There is no doubt that Christ spent three full nights and three full days in the tomb, but how long did He hang on the tree/stake/cross ?

      Surely even in death Yahshua fulfilled every law of His Father ! i.e. Christ could not have been left on the cross overnight for nearly 12 hours before a “morning start of day”, or 18 hours before a “mid-day start of day” !

      The day therefore does indeed start at sunset !
      John 19:31 supports the view that Christ was crucified and died on the afternoon of the 14th Abib "Passover preparation day", was taken down from the cross and placed in the tomb at eventide/sunset demarcating the days. The 15th Abib Passover High Day Sabbath then commenced at sunset.

      Lawfully Christ had to be off the cross by sunset ! He was in the tomb for three full nights and three full days, before His 4th day resurrection - as Lord of the Sabbath Day on the next WEEKLY Sabbath that was the “First of the Sabbaths” after the Passover - Sabbath ZERO initiating the 49 day Feast of Weeks count to Pentecost.
      All the DSS's WEEKLY Sabbaths are correct and the Feast of Unleavened Bread, Day of Trumpets, Day of Atonement and Feast of Tabernacles with it's Last Great Day. However, the Dead Sea Scroll's DIFFER with the Sadducee Temple Feast of Weeks by starting one week AFTER the start of the Temple's Feast of Weeks. Yet Zachariah, John the Baptist's father, officiated in the Temple - so THAT Feast of Weeks is CORRECT - for this reason and other reasons as well.
      *The Temple's Feast of Weeks count to Pentacost started one week earlier than the DSS's Qumran communitie's Feast of Weeks. The Temple's Day of Pentecost was therefore one week earlier.
      How do we know which one of FOUR different Feast of Weeks starting dates is correct for the Day of Pentecost ?
      The solution is in the SUM of the numerals in the eight Sabbath Day DATES of the count - starting the tally from Sabbath Day ZERO.
      The sum of the numerals in the CORRECT eight Sabbath Day DATES will add up to the 7x7 49 days, thus confirming the Sadducees "Aristocratic method" of starting the count - from the weekly Sabbath Day ZERO in the Feast of Unleavened Bread. No other method gives this 49 day tally to the weekly Sabbath before the following 50th Day of Pentecost ! ! !
      This affirms the 18th Abib resurrection Sabbath and the 19th Abib start of the Exodus 40 years into the wilderness - after being taken out of the Egyptian pit through the Red Sea on the previous weekly Sabbath day !
      "AFTER three days" the resurrection was therefore on Sabbath day ZERO - the 18th Abib !
      The 1st Sabbath after - the 25th Abib.
      The 2nd Sabbath after - the 2nd of month two.
      The 3rd Sabbath after - the 9th of month two.
      The 4th Sabbath after - the 16th of month two.
      The 5th Sabbath after - the 23rd of month two.
      The 6th Sabbath after - the 30th of month two.
      The 7th Sabbath after - the 7th of month three.
      18+25+2+9+16+23+30+7=
      130
      1+3+0= 4
      These 13 digits making up the Sabbath day dates, also add up to the 49 day tally to Pentecost on the 50th Day - the 8th of the third Biblical month on our 27th of May:
      1+8+2+5+2+9+1+6+2+3+3+0+7=
      49 !
      4+9=13 !
      12 disciples and Christ the 13th.
      1+3= 4
      Christ was born near the end of the fourth Millennium of this our second Millennial Week of existence. Light "upon the earth" was on the fourth day of Genesis creation week !

The feast of the epiphany celebrates the visit of the three wise men to the Christ child. I’m not sure how that’s gnostic. The date for Christmas was chosen due to a Jewish tradition that a prophet died the same day he was conceived. Since Jesus died on March 25 then early Christians dated His birth to Dec.
