So Now What?

Joseph F. Dumond

Isa 6:9-12 And He said, Go, and tell this people, You hear indeed, but do not understand; and seeing you see, but do not know. Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts, and turn back, and be healed. Then I said, Lord, how long? And He answered, Until the cities are wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land laid waste, a desolation, and until Jehovah has moved men far away, and the desolation in the midst of the land is great.

Shabbat Zoom Meeting

There are many people in need of fellowship and who are sitting at home on Sabbath with no one to talk to or debate with. I want to encourage all of you to join us on Shabbat, and to invite others to come and join us as well. If the time is not convenient then you can listen to the teaching and the midrash after on our youtube channel.

We hope you can invite those who want to keep Torah to come and join us by hitting the link below. It is almost like a Torah teaching fellowship talk show with people from around the world taking part and sharing their insights and understandings.

We start off with some music and then some prayers and its as though you were sitting around the kitchen back in Newfoundland having a cup of coffee and all of us enjoying each other’s company. I hope you will grace us with your company someday.

This Sabbath is also the 35th day of counting the Omer and the 3rd Sabbath in that count.

Sabbath April 3, 2021, will be at 1PM Eastern for our afternoon service

We look forward to you joining our family and getting to know us as we get to know you.

Joseph Dumond is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

Septennial Torah Portion

If you go to Torah Portion at our archived section, you can then go to the 5th year which is the 5th year of the Sabbatical Cycle, the one we are in now, as we state at the top of every News Letter. There you can scroll down to April 3, 2021, and see that this Shabbat we could very well be midrashing about

Gen 30
1 Samuel 16-17
Psalm 64
Mark 7:24-8:38

If you missed last weeks exciting discoveries as we studied that section you can go and watch past Shabbats on our media section.

 


 

Counting the Omer

Someone is surely going to ask you or say it publicly, where are we commanded to count the omer?

When you are asked this then you will take them to Lev 23:15

“You shall count seven full weeks from the day after the Sabbath, from the day that you brought the sheaf of the wave offering. You shall count fifty days to the day after the seventh Sabbath. Then you shall present a grain offering of new grain to the Lord.

Here you are told that there are different methods of counting the 50 days. The first was to count 7 full weeks and the second was to count out the full 50 days.

Again in Deut 16:9 you are told to again COUNT. It is a commandment to count the days and or weeks. And you start from the time when the sickle is first put to the Barley grain which was done after sunset after the weekly Saturday Sabbath. This counting began with Wave Sheaf Day.

“You shall count seven weeks. Begin to count the seven weeks from the time the sickle is first put to the standing grain.

According to some the commandment ‘and you shall count for yourselves fifty days’ means to simply observe the 50th day as Shavuot while others actually declare out loud the number on each of the fifty days. A medieval Karaite Jewish practice combines two different methods of declaring the daily count. The first method is the counting of seven weeks. Each day, the number of the week and the number of the day in the week are declared. So for example, the first day is ‘first day of the first week’. The second counting method used is an overall number for each day. In this method Day one is ‘the first day’ and Day 25 is ‘the twenty-fifth day’. These two methods are used to satisfy the commandment to count seven weeks (Deuteronomy 16:9) as well as the commandment to count fifty days (Leviticus 23:16).

During each one of these days of Counting the Omer to Pentecost, Jewish tradition has developed around reading the Psalms on certain days. I find this to be very beneficial. It is customary that following the “Counting of the Omer,” one recites Psalm 67, for according to tradition, that Psalm has forty-nine words, which corresponds perfectly to the forty-nine days of the “Counting of the Omer.”

And as you meditate on and do these readings, which includes the Counting of the Omer command, keep in mind what this symbolizes. It is the counting of the Sabbatical and Jubilee Years and where we are in that cycle. We are in the twenty-sixth year in 2021, which corresponds to the twenty-sixth day of the “Counting of the Omer.”

Wave Sheaf day is so exciting to understand and so amazing to believe because it forebodes the time when we will be changed and raised up. If you want to call this the Rapture then I can except that if you are obeying Yehovah. If you’re not obeying Yehovah and you think the laws are done away with, then you will not be in this resurrection or raptured. You will be told to be gone you workers of lawlessness, I never knew you.

We will speak more about this as Pentecost draws closer. The Feast of Oaths, the 8th day and the Jubilee year.

When you count from the Wave offering of the barley to Pentecost it is called the counting of the Omer. You are to count each day up to the 50th day. This Sabbath, March 13, 2021, is day fourteen. We are to count the Omer.

As I said, this is the most special time of year for me and in years past I couldn’t put my finger on exactly why, other than it had something to do with Yehshua’s resurrection and waiting in anticipation for Shavuot. While I cannot put into words how my understanding of this has grown, all I can say is that “it clicked!” and “now I get it!”, at least more than before. Understanding follows obedience. So OBEY and learn. You learn by doing as we are told in James.

James 2:18 But someone will say, “You have faith and I have works.” Show me your faith apart from your works, and I will show you my faith by my works. You believe that God is one; you do well. Even the demons believe—and shudder! Do you want to be shown, you foolish person, that faith apart from works is useless? Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered up his son Isaac on the altar? You see that faith was active along with his works, and faith was completed by his works; and the Scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness”—and he was called a friend of God. You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone. And in the same way was not also Rahab the prostitute justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out by another way? For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so also faith apart from works is dead.

All 50 days and each of the Psalms can be found at the back of our book Remembering the Sabbatical year of 2016

I have to point something out to you so that you do not miss it. Each year the counting of the Omer is also an annual reminder of exactly where we are in the Jubilee cycle. This year we are in the 26th year of the Jubilee Cycle. and I want to point out the reading that was to take place on the 26th day of counting the Omer.

Day Twenty-Six | The Creation of Yehovah | Psalm 19:1-7

Today is the fifth day of the fourth week of seven weeks. Today is the twenty-sixth day of the counting of fifty days from the day of the waving of the Omer on the morrow after the Sabbath.

1 Elohim does favor us and bless us. Cause His face to shine upon us. Selah. (Psalm 67:1)
2 For Your way to be known on earth, Your deliverance among all nations. (Psalm 67:2)
3 Let the peoples praise You, O Elohim, let all the peoples praise You. (Psalm 67:3)
4 Let the nations be glad and sing for joy! For You judge the peoples uprightly, and lead the nations on earth. Selah. (Psalm 67:4)
5 Let the peoples praise You, O Elohim; let all the peoples praise You. (Psalm 67:5)
6 The earth shall give her increase; Elohim, our own Elohim, blesses us! (Psalm 67:6)
7 Elohim blesses us! And all the ends of the earth fear Him! (Psalm 67:7)

Psa 19:1  To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; and the expanse proclaims His handiwork.
Psa 19:2  Day to day pours forth speech, and night to night reveals knowledge.
Psa 19:3  There is no speech nor are there words; their voice is not heard.
Psa 19:4  Their line has gone out through all the earth and their words to the end of the world. In them He has set a tabernacle for the un,
Psa 19:5  and he comes forth as a bridegroom from his canopy; he rejoices as a strong man to run a race,
Psa 19:6  going forth from the end of the heavens, and its course is to their ends. And there is nothing hid from its heat.
Psa 19:7  The Law of Jehovah is perfect, converting the soul; the testimony of Jehovah is sure, making the simple wise.

It is talking about the Heavens Declaring the Glory of Yehovah each and every night. In my interviews with Mark Webb and Cyrus Harding we have been showing you these very things. In the interviews we have shown you, these men are showing what is going on in the heavens. I find it extraordinary that this is the Omer reading for this year 26th year.

I do hope you will go and watch these interviews we did this past year.

We are now just two weeks away from Shavuot.

Psa 94:18  When I said, My foot slips; Your mercy, O Jehovah, held me up.

Psa 94:19  In the multitude of my thoughts within me Your comforts delight my soul.

Psa 94:20  Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with You, which frames mischief by a law?

Psa 94:21  They gather themselves against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.

Psa 94:22  But Jehovah is my defense; and my God isthe rock of my refuge.

This week I was talking with a friend, Keith Johnson, and trying to get him and others to look again at the Sabbatical Years. I told him how we were the only ministry to get 2020 right. Not only did we get it right we even got the May 31st day when the riots began right. And as we discussed this more he asked me this next question, which at the time I did not have an answer to.

He said

You got 2020 right, the year that will be a bench mark year on the minds of this generation around the world. You Joseph are now standing on the world stage and you have millions of people listening to you because you got this prediction correct.

“So Now What?”

We talked a few more minutes and I was not able to answer his one question. I was in a bit of a shocked and stunned look. I was thinking

‘What, you do not want to know when Yehovah has another Sabbath time for us to keep that reveals more about His plan of Salvation? You dont want to learn about when the Sabbatical years are?’

No I did not think of that.

‘What do you mean so now what? We got this year right, you should be asking how we got it right so I can tell you by understanding the Jubilee Cycles and how the Daniel 9 Prophecy explains the 70 Jubilee Cycles that would be allocated to Israel once they became a nation at the Exodus.’

No I did not think of that.

‘What do you mean so now what? You should be asking how do you figure out the Jubilee years. You should want to know how to figure them out from the Tombstones of Zoar, from the many scriptures found in the bible that tell you when Sabbatical or Jubilee year are. What do you mean so what?’

No I did not think of that.

This was and is huge in understanding prophecy and to come to grips with world event now. How can you dismiss this subject with such a flippant and who cares type of answer. “So Now What?”

No I did not think of any of this as we talked. He caught me off guard. This is what I love about Keith. He makes me think in ways I had not considered.

I then hung up and called James and asked him the same question. James had an answer right away. He said it is the same thing we are already doing, getting the pastors in East Africa and the Philippines ready for. Teaching them the basics and basically getting them ready for war.

James would go on to say how in the Military which both he and his son have served in, that boot camp today is nothing compared to when he went through it. And what he did was nothing compared to what our fathers and grandfathers went through back in their day.Today it is so watered down and mamby-pambi that you cannot yell at a newly enlisted personnel lest you hurt their feelings. You cannot punch them or anything like what you see from after WW II. Today you have to coddle them and be nice to the recruits.

James is right.We need to put on the full Armor of God, but with purpose and meaning.

The Whole Armor of God

Eph 6:10  Finally, my brothers, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.

Eph 6:11  Put on the whole armor of God so that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

Eph 6:12  For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the world’s rulers, of the darkness of this age, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Eph 6:13  Therefore take to yourselves the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

Eph 6:14  Therefore stand, having your loins girded about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness

Eph 6:15  and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace.

Eph 6:16  Above all, take the shield of faith, with which you shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

Eph 6:17  And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God,

Eph 6:18  praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching to this very thing with all perseverance and supplication for all saints.

Eph 6:19  And pray for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel,

Eph 6:20  for which I am an ambassador in bonds; so that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.

All week I have been thinking about that question from Keith. So Now What?

This entire year of 2020, the year I have been waiting to come for 15 years arrived. Then it happened. COVID around the world. The greatest gong, the loudest of events to hit the world stage and we got it 100% right. Then we waited to see what was to happen May 31st and again we nailed that date too. WOW!!!

So after that we waited for the phone to ring. For FOX News and then ABC, and CBC, BBC NBC and all of them to camp outside my home and want to interview us over and over and hear how we figured this out. But we were in lockdown and no one could fly. No one could go out to meet in conferences. We waited and waited and waited.

No one called.

No accolades, no praise reports, no huge increase in donation, no recognition. Many began to say this was man made and not God sent. This was just another hick up on the road to the end of this age when ever that is. I could not get anyone to listen and not one Christian interview to hear our cause.

BUT WE GOT IT RIGHT!!!

And as Keith so poignantly asked, So Now What?

I have not gotten that question out of my head. Without knowing it, Keith has shamed me and fired me up. He has shamed me in causing me to see my own vanity and my own desire to be recognized. I did not realize it this past year, but having weighed his one question in my mind all week, I now see it.

I have done nothing. Yehovah has shown me, and Yehovah has done all of this with out any of my help. And the world does not recognize Yehovah for sending it nor do they repent before Him. They just want to get the vaccine rolled out so everyone can get back to normal. Zero repentance. Zero. None of Churches are crying out for forgiveness.

No everyone is waiting for the day they can all get back together once again. Like the old days.

In my anger at how vane I have been and at how much of this year I have wasted trying to get people to see what Yehovah is doing, or recognize that we got this year right, I set out to turn around and get back to work again. I began to create two animated videos directly aimed at the Philippines to help them understand where we are in this age and soon to understand their roll in these last days.

I am tired of waiting for people recognize what Yehovah is doing and His Jubilee cycles. I am tired of the rejections and put downs. I am tired of asking for support and no one responds or when I point out certain sins people withholding their support unless I change. I am tired of people steeling the brethren to make up their own groups.

So NOW WHAT?!!!!

I am going to flood youtube with videos explaining the jubilee cycles and the details of it. I am going to expose those people teaching against Yehovah. We now have two companies ready to begin to do the work we set them up for. Acubene PBC and Acubene Helping Hands. We are about to begin soliciting funding for them on top of the funds needed for Sightedmoon.com.

We have gotten things ready and some have helped. Others sit in the wings and fire off their poison arrows criticizing and never lending a hand to the work that needs to get done. Armchair quarterbacks who never play in the actual game and have to deal with the moment by moment decisions on the field.

We have encouraged and supported the work in the Philippines and we have three active areas in the North Central and South that working together and with us to raise the numbers there who are going to keep Torah. The time for walking is over and it is now a flat out race to the end of this age.

We have also now associated Ministries in Burundi and Kenya.

We have helped to build a Torah centre School in the Philippines and another in Kenya and we have sponsored missions and conferences through out the Philippines, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, Kenya, Tanzania, and Burundi. And it just so happened without us understanding it at the time we were doing this, that these are the very same places Yehovah is going to bring the remnant of Israel back from.

Isa 11:11  And it shall be in that day, the Lord shall again set His hand, the second time, to recover the remnant of His people that remains, from Assyria and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Ethiopia, and from Persia, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the coasts of the sea.

How did we know? We did not. Yehovah did and He led us to these places.

So Now What?

We get the brethren ready for the destruction of Israel. We get the brethren ready spiritually and draw them closer to Yehovah. We get ready for the 3 1/2 year drought by securing water supplies for many people. We get ready for the return to the land that is soon to come after these things. And we prepare to keep the Sabbatical year in 2023 from Aviv to Aviv 2024. We continue to show the brethren why they must keep the Holy Days at the proper time.

We are not only going to maintain the ground we have taken, but to expand until the whole earth is covered in the Knowledge of Yehovah and His Kingdom.

Yes I know what I am doing now. Goliath is in front of us and he has slandered our Kings name. Goliath, the whore of Babylon, the UN and the EU, are going to go down. But we have brethren in those places and we need to educate them so they can COME OUT OF HER MY People. Revelation 18:4.

Thank you Keith for a great question that caused me to see my sin and redirect me in my cause.

Here are the first two productions in doodly format to share our message. These two are aimed at the Philippines people and I use their native language in them. They are part one and part two of my trilogy explaining the word Shanah and how it teaches about the seven millennium. We are soon going to begin our third video in this series titled The four Shanah of Abraham. I hope you will share them on your social platforms. Just copy and past the link or the URL in your groups and let them see these truths. I am going to keep these videos short. The second is lnger than I wanted but we have a lot more translating to do.

Future videos will be done all in the native language for that country being targeting.

    Excellent “What now?” Time to renew our first love and be about the Fathers business and Yeshuas instructions to “Go into all the world and preach the gospel.”

    It is encouraging to read about such clarity and determination. Great efforts have been made to teach those who are choosing not to listen — the message in scriptures for such people is to repent… they won’t listen and understand until they repent and are delivered. Wisdom can bee seen in your decision to shift focus.

    Also, I look forward to seeing what this Acubene thing is all about — perhaps add a link somewhere on this website listing the needs, goals, and accomplishments of Acubene.

    Eyes that MUST SEE, will soon see. For the majority, already too late.

    Generally speaking I’m a pan-eschatologist. (That just means I’m just going to wait and see how the end-times pans out.)

    Far too many men who have gone before (both crack scholars and crack-pots) have made end-times predictions that didn’t pan out. Hal Lindsay sold a lot of books, but struck out on every single point.

    The timetable above indicates there’s 1989 days until the two witnesses. That’s about 5 & 1/3 years from now. In my personal (and ever so humble) opinion, this prediction may be short by 4 or 5 years. Since the two witnesses prophecy for 3 & 1/2 years (360 day years) we should expect them some time in 2030.

    Like I said, I’m a pan-eschatologist, so I’m not adamant about my own timetable; so if you disagree, I don’t care enough to argue. You could be right . . .

    I crunched numbers years ago . . .even published books. I was so sure about my predictions . . . that failed. I found my error, but didn’t go back to try to re-establish credibility. YHVH does things in his way, by his wisdom, by HIS timetable.

    The only way we can be sure is to . . . wait and see how it all pans out.

    The only reason I posted this comment is so people don’t lose faith when 2025 rolls around and the two witnesses haven’t shown up yet. Just wait another few years and they’ll arrive right on time. Yah’s time.

    Thank you, Joseph

    You’re too hard on yourself. Your fruit is good and plentiful. We are grateful to Yah that through your works that we now know the truth about the calendar and jubilee cycles. New to the truth of Torah as the world was turned upside down by Covid, our entire world paradigm and its lies were razed. So our heads are still spinning. What a ride! Bless Yehova.

    Sincerely,

    Dean and Patty Hekelthorn

    no need to be concerned about those who leave. Abba is in control. Abba has led them away for a purpose. They are following the Spirit.

    Remember Paul flat out refused to have a believer with him as Paul judged that person unworthy and a deserter.

    That seems to be the situation in that you refuse so much of others by judging what they are led to comprehend by Abba for His purpose as unworthy.

    Just like people refuse you for where Abba has led you for building up truth too in Sabaticaal years.

    For sure to increasing in Spirit and Truth, I give a resounding Yes!! To the regaining of the ancient path but we have to NAVIGATE that in the present circumstance with Christ who gives wisdom.

    Often I understand your fear of conspiracy theory taking over the knowing of Christ but plainly scripturally warnings from Abba are tied into physically described circumstances and pandemics and pharmekia are included. The Holy Spirit gives the believer opportunity to discern so please don’t caste everything aside that you have not known or you will be just as those who disparage what Abba gave you to share.
    Also remember people have come to you privately on many occasions to discuss these concerns but in your wisdom you have not agreed so in effect the door is closed at sighted moon for them to openly be brothers & share. So it was with great difficulty and searching those folk determined not to fight amongst the brethren to destroy one another & leave to be taught about what indeed the strong man is doing, so we do not fall into the snare through lack of knowledge.

    Be blessed Joseph in Christ in all that He leads you to do as your good and reasonable service in the Body of Christ.
    Shalom Fj

    May Abba be protecting the Saints from all ignorance and may we continue in love and wait for restoration.
    Remember in the longer term Paul was proven wrong in his judgemnt and the man was proven faithful. Allow Abba to lead without getting resentful as we are Christ’s alone and not any man’s possession. So in reality no man is stealing from you in the slightest.

    I am hopeful that like Paul’s situation, time will restore us all to be in close fellowship and loving kindness.

    Shalom FJ
