Days of Awe


In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God.
The same was in the beginning with God.
All things were made by him;
 and without him was not any thing made that was made.
In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
And the light shineth in darkness;
and the darkness comprehended it not.

John 1:1-5



God’s High Holy Days, more properly known as the Yamim Noraim (Hebrew: ימים נוראים‎‎ "Days of Awe"), may mean: strictly, the holidays of Rosh Hashanah ("Jewish New Year") and Yom Kippur ("Day of Atonement") – collectively the first ten days of the seventh month of the biblical calendar.





As we reflect on the great atonement – Christ’s ultimate sacrifice for our wrong-doing - it fills our hearts with awe.  What an amazing act of selfless love on our behalf.

And as it is appointed unto men once to die, 
but after this the judgment:
So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.
Hebrews 9:27-28

Hi Tammy☺😇 this is very interesting and am in 'awe n wonder'😊 Heb.9:27-28 verse caught my attention. Do you see 9th month and dates 27&28...death,judgement,Christ atonement,HIS appearing second time unto "them that look" for HIM! I see so many revelations here😀may be HE comes in these days of awe to 'awestruck'us and fill the ones with dread and fear who are ignorant!And on calendar i see 9/11 which i have been seeing many times. I read 9/11 was Jesus birthday but may be it is this 9/11...7/11 just speculating!Good post!GOD bless you!😇🌷🌸🌹🍀🍁🍃🌺🌻🌼
