Early First Fruits

Jwi025c.tif (33806 bytes) "And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them,When ye be come into the the land which I give unto you and shall reap the harvest thereof, then ye shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest unto the priest: And he shall wave the sheaf before the LORD, to be accepted for you; on fhe morrow after the sabbath the priest shall wave it." Lev.23:9-11

The Israelites did this, never realizing that the sheaf represented YAHUSHUA who rose on the day after the sabbath after Passover and was the firstfruits of harvest. YAHUSHUA fullfilled the shadow of the day of first fruits, he filled it up with meaning.

Our New Testament scriptures clearly show this to us:

"But now Christ is risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept."  I Corithians 15:20

"But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming." I Corinthians 15:23

We are Sabbath-Keepers, Not Seventh-Day Adventists...
Please don't get confused. We do not endorse some of their doctrines although we believe they do love YAHUSHUA, also called in Greek JESUS CHRIST.

We believe in the rapture, we believe there is a hell eternal, we believe to be absent from the body is to be present with YAHUSHUA, also named in Greek JESUS CHRIST. Seventh-Day Adventists believe the lie of soul sleep. Remember the thief hanging on the cross who, because he believed on Him, was told by YAHUSHUA, "Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise." (Luke 23:43, KJV)

We know that Prophecy did not cease with Ellen G. White and Seventh-Day Adventists believe in Ellen G. White as the only prophet for today, though she is dead and what she prophesied did not come to pass.

We believe in Keeping the true Sabbath, for it is the 4th commandment, but we don't believe it takes the place of the saving blood of YAHUSHUA (JESUS CHRIST).
