Week of the Creation, Happy Birthday World, Adam and Good Friday.

by Joseph Saraceno

Days-of-Creation-A1This year April 9 starts the week of the creation by the solar calendar and spring full moon. However this Passover full moon is two days off, landing on Tuesday instead of Thursday for the last supper. So this year the creation week starts on 9th and Adam’s birth or his creation day would fall on Good Friday the 14.  Ex:12. The reading  on Good Friday,  Holy SaturdayGen: 1.How ironic that our Lord would die on the day He created Adam. Some say that they were both buried in the same area but I can’t vouch for that.
March 24 or 25 use to be New Years day until Pope Gregory? changed it to Jan 1. That’s where April fools comes from. Those Catholics  that continued or would keep on celebrating it on the 24 or 25, which went on for 7 or 8 days ending in April became known as April Fools. However it’s one thing to change the date for New Year and another to change the doctrinal teachings of the Church.

I heard this protestant minister? (Dr. Jobe Martin) compare the week of the creation with what our Lord did when He made wine at the wedding. He made comparison about how long it takes to make wine, let alone good wine and yet Jesus made it all in an instant. “If he could make that wine in an instant, then he could just as easily made the world in a week.” Good point I thought. I’ll drink to that.
There isn’t anything in the scriptures that can tell use when God made Eve. Or how long they were in the garden of paradise. Once out of the Garden of Eden,  Adam celebrated with a Rib barbecue. (Joke)

By a tree we fell.By a tree our redemption began.

By Eve we fell.
By Mary we rejoiced.

By water we were punished.
By water we became cleansed.

By the Passover we were freed from bondage.
By Christ’s Passover we were freed from the Law.

On the Sixth day the Father finished.
On the Cross the Sixth remark was, it is finished.

In Spring it all Began.
In Spring it will all End. Amen.

For those of you who are aware that the Lord will come back on that last Pentecost Sundayshould remember that we are talking about Middle East time and those of us in the west it would be Saturday evening, therefore we would not have that last Pentecost Sunday.
Oh depending on the time the Lord appears it could also be Monday in the far East.
