The Christian Calendar
Back to the Original - away from unbiblical Traditions. Gal 1:14
Discover in this unique calendar the principle Christian events laid out in the Bible.
This calendar is the fruit of many preceding studies, only to mention the study on Noah's Flood which clearly confirmed an original 360 day-year with 12 months of 30 days, to further mention the study on CHRIST's Passover Chronology which revealed that CHRIST did -not- suffer a fast-track-trial, finally confirming the correct day of the First Fruits counting towards Pentecost, and of course the study 'Sabbaths' with the basic definition of a biblical week which begins on the day after the Weekly Sabbath, the biblical first day of the week (modern Sunday).
Original Bible Calendar
This captures the calendar which THEOS gave to us through Moses. Simple, easy to memorize, logical, and ultimately perfect. But human sin and self-will have tremendously complicated the organization of an ordinary year.
The Weekly Sabbath runs autonomously throughout history.
A Biblical Week revolves around the Weekly Sabbath and the days in between are simply counted as numbers 1-6 following the Weekly Sabbath (1st Day = Sunday et al.).
A Biblical Year starts in the days or weeks after the barley is ripening (at least green in its head, with another ~4 weeks until First Fruits, in order to ripen from green to golden ears), precisely on the morning after the sighting of the next New Moon thereafter (first sliver of the Waxing Crescent Moon; not to be confused with the Dark Moon which is often erroneously called 'New Moon'). A biblical year is originally 360 days, and one month 30 days long. Most probably after the flood things began to shift, and today we have slightly longer years and a mix of 29/30 days per month (lunar month = 29.53 days), which also periodically causes a 13th month.
Current Calendar
* Recommended festive days: 1. New Year, 2. Resurrection and 3. Pentecost
** Passover always occurs on Abib 15-21, and Resurrection Day / First Fruits always on Abib 23. Flexible dates are Ascension Day (First Fruits +40 days) and Pentecost (+50 days, both inclusive counts) in the month of Sivan.
The beginning of a year moves according to the first Crescent Moon.
▶ See also the study 'Creation' with more details and specific Bible verses related to the basic calendar.
▶ See also the study 'Christ · Harmonization of Passover Chronology · Refutation of Fast-Track Trial' for the definition of the Resurrection Day and the First Fruits, initiating the count towards (Ascension Day and) Pentecost (+50 days).
▶ See also the section 'Discernment' with the reasons why we are not bound anymore to celebrate the 7 'Sabbaths of Sabbaths', or modern feasts such as 'Easter', 'All Hallow's Eve / Halloween', 'Christmas' or the pagan New Year (Jan1).
It is no wonder why Amos 6:3 (Hebrew OT) has been manipulated, while it correctly warns in the original as following:
"Ye who are approaching the evil day, who are drawing near and adopting false Sabbaths ..." Amo 6:3 (Greek OT).
"You that put off the day of disaster and bring near a reign of violence!" Amo 6:3 (Hebrew OT).
