Introduction

For many years, humanity have used a man-made calendar, which was composed by those who were nit spiritually awake, enlightened and experienced. That means that mankind have for a very long time, been doing things out of tune with God. They neither know the ways of God nor follow His footstep. The result is that the world is now experiencing a lot of crisis and calamities, which by all indications are likely to worsen, before people would have relief.

The anti-Christ is always swift to plot deception and quick to implement it. That is why he has succeeded in creating so many fake development and misleading attractions. Out of spiritual ignorance, the society rushes after the enemy of God, to do his wishes and biddings, without populations knowing that they are following Satan into the hell fire. That is the reason why I say that what humanity call civilization is like the parable of the people who moved from light  into darkness and do not know again how to come out of the darkness.

It is also disappointing that most of the religious leaders cannot differentiate between the good works of God and the evil ways of Satan. The situation is so bad and hopeless because the religious leaders encourage multitudes in the wrong way, and even persecute those who do the right things. What is even more alarming is that most of the religious leaders do not know that God specified His own calendar in the Bible. And I ask, “How can the religious leaders be lacking in the very thing they should teach the people?” it is not only amazing, but also disappointing.

 

23 "Three times in the year all your men shall appear before the Lord, the LORD God of Israel. 24 For I will cast out the nations before you and enlarge your borders; neither will any man covet your land when you go up to appear before the LORD your God three times in the year.

Exodus 34:23-24

The priests and the Levites brought them up. 5 Also King Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel who were assembled with him, were with him before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen that could not be counted or numbered for multitude.

Conclusion

          Mankind should return restore the use of God’s calendar. The earlier the better. Already, so many souls have been lost to hell fire. Even, most of the religious leaders could not discover the underground works of the anti-Christ. And God forewarned the world, saying:

 

8 "For My thoughts are not your thoughts,

Nor are your ways My ways," says the LORD.

9 "For as the heavens are higher than the earth,

So are My ways higher than your ways,

And My thoughts than your thoughts.

Isaiah 55:8-9
