Summary
It seems that many people struggle with the concept of Sabbath Observance. In saying this, I must stress that this relates ONLY to committed Believers who are doing their best to serve Father Yah, the Eternally Self-Existing Creator of the Heavens and the Earth faithfully. This article seeks to present my understanding of Sabbath observance having done my best to be observant since around 2000, so for about 22 years.

Preamble
Good day!
The Almighty Creator Desires a Deep Personal Relationship with You!
My name is James Robertson.
I am a researcher, publisher and teacher regarding the matters and truths of the Almighty Creator whose true Name is “Yah the Eternally Self-Existing” – I have been actively serving Him since 1993 – over 30 years.
If you are NOT actively serving Yah then by default you are serving Satan – my objective is to show you how you can make a big difference on Earth and qualify for a position of high esteem in Heaven for Eternity.
It is important to understand that as a Believer just being good is NOT the point, it is Relationship with Yah that counts. Without this you will be in a very unpleasant place in Heaven with no way out – my aim is to show you how to get close to Father.
If you are a good person without a clear relationship with Yah, then you are in a spiritual no-mans-land and will NOT enter Heaven when you die. The Creator has said regarding Unbelievers "Why would I want someone to spend Eternity with me when they do NOT Believe I exist?"
Yah is calling EVERYBODY on the planet to be involved and serve Him and help Him to have victory over Satan; my goal is to show YOU how to do this.
Fundamentally we each need to learn to see things on Earth from YAH’s perspective and my aim is to teach you how.

Essence of my Message Regarding Sabbath Observance – Overview
It seems that many people struggle (believers) with the concept of Sabbath Observance. In saying this, I must stress that this relates ONLY to committed Believers who are doing their best to serve Father Yah, the Eternally Self-Existing Creator of the Heavens and the Earth faithfully. This broadcast seeks to present my understanding of Sabbath observance having done my best to be observant since around 2000, so for about 23 years.
We will start by reviewing a number of verses from the Bible that speak to Sabbaths.
I will offer my interpretation of certain verses.
And outline what I understand to be permissible and not permissible.
I will then speak about observance of the six High Sabbaths of Yah.
Finally we will look at the state of YOUR relationship with the Almighty Creator.

2022.03.01 The Essence of my Message Regarding Sabbath Observance
It seems that many believers struggle with the concept of Sabbath Observance. In saying this, I must stress that this relates ONLY to committed Believers who are doing their best to serve Father Yah, the Eternally Self-Existing Creator of the Heavens and the Earth faithfully. This broadcast seeks to present my understanding of Sabbath observance having done my best to be observant since around 2000, so for about 23 years.
So what is it and why is it important? Father said way back that it took Him seven periods of time to create everything and in the seventh period, He rested and therefore His creation should rest, therefore we should rest, therefore our servants should rest, therefore our draft animals should rest. If you don't believe, you will need to get that right fist. This is about people who have seriously made a commitment to Yah who actually want to please Him. If you've just prayed some sort of prayer once upon a time and you're just pottering along doing your own things, not really worried about the Creator, this message is probably not really for you. This is for people who really want to get close to Father, who want to please Father, who want to do His will on Earth, who want to live above sin. Big difference!
As a point of departure, I hold that unless otherwise specified in the case of a specific High Sabbath, every Day begins at Sunrise and the weekly Sabbath therefore begins at Sunrise on Saturday and runs to Sunrise on Sunday. I understand that there are all sorts of arguments that the day begins with night, etc., but I hold that these are not valid. This is discussed elsewhere on the website https://www.ETIMin.org.
Following are some Bible verses that have a bearing on this.
Folks, the board consensus is that the Sabbath begins at sunset on Friday. The day begins at sunset. So let me check this out with you. The day begins with night. Why is it called the day if it begins at night? The night is when people rest and relax and sleep. Surely, the day begins at daylight. So I'm not going to get into a big debate about it. If you think it begins on Friday at sunset, so be it. One of us is going to get a nasty shock on the Day of Judgment and I don’t think it will be me. If you're going to start at sunset on Friday, well, then I suggest you go through to sunrise on Sunday just to be on the safe side.
Why observe the Sabbath? The short answer is simply because Father told us to in no uncertain terms and I'm going to share some verses that substantiate that.
Exodus 20:8 to 11 sets out the Fourth Commandment in some detail: “8 Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it Set-Apart {holy}. 9 Six days you shall labour and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing your Mighty One {the LORD your God}, on which you must not do any work—neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant or livestock, nor the foreigner within your gates. 11 For in six days Yah the Eternally Self-Existing {the LORD} made the heavens and the earth and the sea and all that is in them, but on the seventh day He rested. Therefore Yah the Eternally Self-Existing blessed the Sabbath day and set it apart as Set-Apart {holy}.”
Now, the key thing here is that the creation did not take place in 7 periods of 24 hours. It took place in 6 periods each of indeterminate duration. Creating the actual universe potentially took millions of years, maybe even more. Creating the plants and the animals potentially took tens of thousands of years, maybe hundreds of thousands of years, may be millions of years. Creating man happened in an instant right at the end of the process. And by the way, the Sabbath is Saturday not Sunday. It always was Saturday, then the Roman church changed it to Sunday because of pagan worship the sun's day worshiping the sun, but it's Saturday and that's a subject that’s beyond the scope of this broadcast.
Genesis 2:2 “And by the seventh day the Almighty {God} had finished the work He had been doing; so on that day He rested from all His work.” Note that in this instance “day” refers to an indeterminate period of time, we are currently in the seventh “day” of Yah’s endeavours and Yah is resting waiting for us to make His enemies a footstool to Yahooshua’s feet.
Exodus 16:23 “He (Moshe {Moses}) told them, "This is what Yah the Eternally Self-Existing has said: 'Tomorrow is to be a day of complete rest, a holy Sabbath to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing So bake what you want to bake, and boil what you want to boil. Then set aside whatever remains and keep it until morning.'"
So set it apart to Yah, you should be worshiping, you should be praising, you should be praying, you should be studying about His matters. If you have a ministry, you should be ministering. You should not be doing the dishes or doing housework, or taking business phone calls or answering business emails or anything like that. The seventh day is the Sabbath day, Saturday is set apart, separated, sanctified to Yah. And if you're not doing that, you're breaking the Commandment and you will likely get judged either in this life or in the life to come.
Folks, I just want to stress, this whole message is for committed believers. If you're not a committed believer, you either need to change your attitude and get to be a committed believer, otherwise, you're wasting your time listening to this because it's not for you. So don’t get offended with me telling you to do things that you don't think are important because if you don't think having a relationship with Father and pleasing Him is important, I'm sorry this is the wrong place for you.
Exodus 23:12 “For six days you are to do your work, but on the seventh day you must cease, so that your ox and your donkey may rest and the son of your maidservant may be refreshed, as well as the foreign resident.”
Exodus 31:13 "Tell the Israelites, 'Surely you must keep My Sabbaths, for this will be a sign between Me and you for the generations to come, so that you may know that I am Yah the Eternally Self-Existing who sanctifies you.”
So don’t work on the Sabbath. No housework, no housekeeping, no home maintenance, no do-it-yourself. By that Yah will know it's a sign between you and Him, it's a sign between you and the unbelievers that you keep the Sabbath. He knows that He is important to you because you have chosen to set apart that day with all the temptations, etc., like I will just do this email, I'll just respond to this, I will just take this phone call, I will just do this, I'll just do that, I haven't had time to wash the dishes for the last 3 days, I will catch up on my housework. That is not Sabbath observance.
Exodus 31:15 “For six days work may be done, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of complete rest, Set-Apart to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day must surely be put to death.” So, as with ALL of the Ten Commandments there is a death penalty or at the very least torment in Hell after death for violating the Sabbath.
Leviticus 26:2 “You must keep My Sabbaths and have reverence for My sanctuary. I am Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.”
Deuteronomy 5:14 “But the seventh day is the sabbath of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing your Mighty One: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates; that thy manservant and thy maidservant may rest as well as thou.”
Folks, it's very-very clear and it's set out in a lot of detail, so there's really no excuse for not keeping the Sabbath. There are four commandments which have to do with love Yah the Eternally Self-Existing the Almighty One with all your heart, with all your mind, with all your soul, with all your strength and the first four commandments do that. Worship Yah alone. No idols. Don't worship Jesus. Don’t worship the Bible. Don’t worship the Quran. Don’t worship the Torah. Don’t take the name of Yah in vain. Don’t call Him the Lord or God or whatever. His name is Yah the Eternally Self-Existing or Yah. Remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy. Observe all the Sabbaths. If you want to show Yah that you love Him, keep those four commandments.
We then obtain some clarification from Yahooshua:
Mark 2 23 to 28 “23 One Sabbath Yahooshua {Jesus} was passing through the grainfields, and His disciples began to pick the heads of grain as they walked along. 24 So the Pharisees said to Him, “Look, why are they doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?” 25 Yahooshua replied, “Have you never read what David did when he and his companions were hungry and in need? 26 During the high priesthood of Abiathar, he entered the house of Yah and ate the consecrated bread, which was lawful only for the priests. And he gave some to his companions as well.” 27 Yahooshua declared, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. 28 Therefore, the Son of Adam {Man} is Adonai {Lord} even of the Sabbath.” This is confirmed in Matthew 12:1 and 2 and Luke 6:1. Note that all human beings are sons of Adam {sons of Man}.
So apparently a dilemma because it seems that Yahooshua is saying it is okay to break the Sabbath. There is a difference between just taking a small amount of grain for food because it happens to be there as you walk through the field as distinct from cooking and three course meal and spending hours in the kitchen. We're not forbidden to have a nice meal on the Sabbath, but we're not to go and do all the work necessary to prepare that meal on the Sabbath. You can prepare the food the day before.
Luke 14 1 to 6 “1 One Sabbath, Yahooshua went to eat in the home of a leading Pharisee, and those in attendance were watching Him closely. 2 Right there before Him was a man with dropsy. 3 So Yahooshua asked the experts in the Torah and the Pharisees, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath or not?”
4 But they remained silent.
Then Yahooshua took hold of the man, healed him, and sent him on his way. 5 And He asked them, “Which of you whose son or ox falls into a pit on the Sabbath day will not immediately pull him out?”
6 And they were unable to answer these questions.”
So notice here, Yahooshua didn't heal the man, the Spirit of Yah in Yahooshua healed the man. Yahooshua was not working, Yah was working. Yahooshua's point is, it's acceptable and pleasing to do good on the Sabbath. Again, these passages are not about finding an excuse not to be strict about observing the Sabbath. It's just clarifying some points that were not clear in the days of Yahooshua, because people have fenced the Commandments around with all these rules and regulations and laws and all the rest of it. Please be discerning. There is a lot of wrong teaching that suggests the Sabbath observance is no longer important. And then there is a whole lot other stuff that people say that Sabbath is the Sunday when it's actually the Saturday, so people go to work on Saturday and observe the Sabbath on Sunday, in the meantime, they are breaking the Commandment.
Luke 13 10 to 17 “10 One Sabbath Jesus was teaching in one of the synagogues, 11 and a woman there had been disabled by a spirit for eighteen years. She was hunched over and could not stand up straight. 12 When Yahooshua saw her, He called her over and said, “Woman, you are set free from your disability.” 13 Then He placed His hands on her, and immediately she straightened up and began to glorify the Almighty.
14 But the synagogue leader was indignant that Yahooshua had healed on the Sabbath. “There are six days for work,” he told the crowd. “So come and be healed on those days and not on the Sabbath.”
15 “You hypocrites!” Adonai {the Lord} replied. “Does not each of you on the Sabbath untie his ox or donkey from the stall and lead it to water? 16 Then should not this daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has kept bound for eighteen long years, be released from her bondage on the Sabbath day?”
17 When Yahooshua said this, all His adversaries were humiliated. And the whole crowd rejoiced at all the glorious things He was doing.”
So again, it's acceptable to do good on the Sabbath day. I'm not talking about great big works and what have you. I'm talking about doing good for somebody, potentially visiting somebody who is ill, but basically the Sabbath is for observing Yah, of commitment to Yah, of worship of Yah, studying about Yah, praying to Yah.
There is so much material to read. There is lots of material on my website if you're looking for stuff to read. Most of it is anointed and inspired at some level.
My interpretation
There are some challenges in the above verses.
I would like to offer my interpretation of the Commandment as follows – specifically, the Sabbath IS to be strictly observed BUT there are situations where Grace applies such as the healing of infirmity by the Spirit of Yah, rescuing someone in danger, feeding domestic animals, etc.
My application of these principles is as follows:
a. What is permissible?
i. Eating and basic food preparation. Not fancy meal. If you're going to have a fancy, prepare it the day before.
ii. Worshipping, fundamentally the Sabbath is a day to worship Yah.
iii. If you are a minister serving Yah then ministry is permissible whether this is your full-time occupation or part time.
iv. Reading about the matters of Yah.
v. Teaching about the matters of Yah.
vi. Researching about the matters of Yah.
vii. Discussing the matters of Yah.
viii. Anything relating to the service of Yah.
ix. Urgent medical treatment.
x. I hold that it IS permissible to visit a restaurant to eat a Sabbath meal but I accept that is controversial – my perspective is that there is no restriction on unbelievers working on the Sabbath since they are NOT in my land or my jurisdiction so if they want to prepare and serve food to Believers on the Sabbath that is acceptable.
Use your discretion. Be sensible about it. But the key thing is, let it be possible for Yah to look on your day and say "This is a servant of mine. This is a worshipper of mine. This is a follower of mine." If you're not sure what to do on the Sabbath, apply that yardstick. Ask yourself whether Yah is looking at what you're doing and He is pleased with what you're doing or if He is displeased. And if you're not sure or you're thinking He might be displeased, don’t do it. Repent and ask for forgiveness.
b. What is NOT permissible?
v. Anything that can be done on another day of the week that is NOT time critical on the Sabbath.
vi. Any form of commercial activity.
vii. Anything to do with your day job.
viii. Any form of studying, discussing, writing, researching of a commercial nature.
ix. Non-essential medical treatment.
x. Shopping including online shopping.
xi. Watering plants that can be watered on another day of the week.
xii. Cutting toenails or fingernails or any form of beauty treatment or similar.
xiii. Banking.
xiv. Any form of secular errand.
xv. Anything analogous to the previous points.
xvi. Barring the matters listed above as permissible I take a fairly narrow and fairly strict view of what is permissible. I hold that fundamentally the Sabbath is time for serving Father and doing His work and worshipping Him.
It is so easy to slip into answering that business email, taking that business phone call. I make a point of saying to my customers I'm not available on Saturday, I observe it as a strict Sabbath. I might take a momentary phone call and say I'm terribly sorry, I can't speak to you today, I will call you back tomorrow. You don't have to be pushy or offensive about it. Accept that you're inconveniencing other people, apologize for inconvenience. You say look it's important to me to keep this day set-apart for the Almighty and I'm afraid I can't attend that meeting today.
It takes discipline. It takes a resolve and a desire to please Father. If you're wishy-washy about it, then don't be surprised if Father is wishy-washy about you in return. You cry out to him to provide for you financially, but you can't be bothered to keep your work separate from His day. And if you insist on doing business and commercial stuff on the Sabbath, do not be surprised when your business is a mess and there is no business and you run around doing everything you possibly can, but there is no income because there is no favour from Yah because you have offended Him, you've broken the Commandment, and there is potentially death penalty for what you're doing and He is being gracious towards you that He is not killing you. Please hear me – the Sabbath is a very-very sacred, set-apart, sanctified day. It should be treated as such.
I've this ministry that is broadcasting to you now. I publish emails. I'm doing a rendering of the Bible, correcting some really serious translation errors. I do that on the Sabbath as an act of worship towards Yah.
High Sabbaths
The seven High Sabbaths should be observed even more strictly than the weekly Saturday Sabbath.
Specifically in sequence through the calendar year:
a. Pesach {Passover} – commemorates the Covenant between Yah and the people of Yisrael {Israel} prior to their deliverance from Egypt (Mitzraim). Also commemorates the final supper of Yahooshua and the New Covenant entered into through his death, see https://www.ETIMin.org/miracle-of-yahooshua-jesus-death.
Observe strictly taking account of the above points. Might usher in with roast lamb the night before the Passover. There are various Jewish traditions regarding “The Seder” which I do NOT observe. You may choose to investigate them and observe them.
Folks, the Passover was the day before Moshe led the people out of Egypt and it was the day before Yahooshua was put to death. It's an important day and you should attach that level of gravitas and importance and seriousness to it. Don’t get wishy-washy and make excuses. It is a high Sabbath dedicated to Yah, worship Yah, praise Yah. Read about the things of Yah. Get on your knees and pray for a few hours. Have a feast by all means, it is a feast day. Roast lamb is a good way to start.
b. Shavuot {Pentecost} – commemorates when Yah came down on Mount Sinai after the Ysraelites came out of Egypt and crossed the Red Sea. Also commemorates when the Spirit of Yah was poured out on the Believers in the Upper Room 40 days after Pesach after Yahooshua was resurrected.
Observe strictly with particular emphasis on remembering the events above and asking Father to pour out His Spirit on you.
The thing to notice here is Father does important things according to His high Sabbaths. They are markers in time. If Yah is going to do something significant in your life, He is probably going to do it on one of these six high Sabbaths. He is going to do something significant in the world, He's probably going to do it in one of these high Sabbaths. So Shavuot, Yah comes down on the mountain, His spirit comes down the mountain, Moshe {Moses} goes up to Him on the mountain, Yah puts the Ten Commandments on the two tablets of stone, gives them to Moshe, Moshe comes down, the Israelites are worshiping idols. He breaks the tablets, he goes back one the mountain, Father gives him the tablets again. Those Ten Commandments are written in stone. They never will change. All this other stuff about 613 mitzvoth, etc., is fluff and stuff. It's the Ten Commandments that are really important in Hebrew, the ten words. The Word of Yah is fundamentally the Ten Commandments.
c. Yom Teruah {The Feast of Trumpets} – commemorate with the blowing of the Shofar (Ram’s Horn trumpet). If you do not have a Shofar you may be able to find one to purchase on Amazon. Sound the Trumpet at least once during the day. This is a day of rejoicing and feasting.
I've tucked away too big kudu horn shofars and I have which I bought on Amazon, a little sheep's or goat's, I think it's a sheep's horn, shofar. If you take it seriously, sound a trumpet on Yom Teruah. Get yourself a trumpet, teach yourself to blow it, I'm not very good at that, I only really blow it once a year and this year I really battled to get a decent note out of it. You got to wet your lips, and blow through your lips. It's a whole technique in its own right, but the point is, as an act of reverence to Yah, blow the trumpet on the feast of trumpets on Yom Teruah. By all means have a good meal. Same comments apply, either have the meal the night before or prepare it such that it requires little work and little preparation if you're going to take the feast on the Sabbath. But take it seriously folks. Be different. Being holy means set apart, separated from, sanctified.
d. Yom Kippur {the Day of Atonement} – the day on which the annual atoning sacrifice was offered when there was a Temple. Yahooshua has fulfilled this Sacrifice so that should be commemorated on this day. This is a strict water only fast from Sunset to Sunset. A time for introspection and examining oneself seeking to repent of ALL unrepented sin.
Yom Kippur is the most set-apart, most sacred, most holy day of the annual calendar. If you're sloppy and you don’t keep anything, then keep Yom Kippur. That was why Israel was attacked on Yom Kipper because they were all fasting and worshipping, etc., and they still got defeated because it was an offence against Yah.
So I encourage you on Yom Kippur dedicate the day to worshiping, to serving Yah, to drawing close to Yah, fellowship, talk about the things of Yah. It's perfectly acceptable to meet in an assembly or a church or a synagogue or whatever on a Sabbath. It's acceptable to drive there, preferably go somewhere not too far, but there is grace as far as that’s concerned. I've seen a number of significant points in my life related to Yom Kippur.
e. First Day of Sukkot {First Day of Tabernacles} – start of the Harvest Festival in the Northern Hemisphere, observe as such whether you are in the Northern Hemisphere or the Southern Hemisphere. A day of rejoicing, giving thanks and feasting.
Also the day on which Yahooshua was born so if you have a real need to commemorate Yahooshua’s birth this is the day to do it and NOT 25th December, see https://www.ETIMin.org/yahooshua-and-feast-of-tabernacles and https://www.ETIMin.org/true-birthday-of-yahooshua. I personally do NOT see a need to particularly recall the birth of Yahooshua. He is, after all, simply a human being, albeit a human being who played a very special role in history.
So you've got from Sukkot the first day to eight day the great day, eight days. The tradition in Judaism is to dwell outside your house in a booth, a sukkot for the eight days. Not many people actually are strict about that. It's pretty difficult to do in our society today. If you're blessed with a reasonably big garden, you consider putting up a tent in one of these tent like structures with posts and what have you, but generally not that easy to observe and particularly if it's bad weather or whatever, remember this was first given in semi-desert environment where things were very different and the people were living in booths every day, but the first day is important.
f. Great Day of Sukkot {Great Day of Tabernacles} – eighth day – Feast day, the culmination of eight days of celebrating the Harvest and giving thanks. If you have traditionally observed Christmas and/or Thanksgiving as major feasts THIS is the day for a major feast according to Father’s parameters.
Thanksgiving not a big issue. Christmas absolutely forbidden, absolutely not acceptable. Any stretch of your imagination you should not even think about Christmas let alone observe Christmas, let alone have a Christmas tree, let alone have a Christmas feast. It's out of the question folks if you're a committed believer. See the webpage "The Evil of Christmas" for a whole lot more about just how evil Christmas fundamentally is.
So, Great Day of Tabernacles, Day of Sukkot, prepare a really nice meal. Maybe you have it on the night before. I would have roast lamb, all the trimmings, starters, dessert, the whole shooting match. Make it a celebration and let go off Christmas. Let go off Easter as well. By the way, let go off Halloween, and let go off New Year. They are all pagan feasts and they are all wrong and most of them are evil to very evil. Christmas and Halloween really evil feasts. Don’t observe them under any, any circumstances. See the webpage "The evil of Halloween" as well.
As I say, remember the First Day of Sukkot as the date on which Yahooshua was born if that’s important to you.
Conclusion
I hope that this has helped to clarify priorities with regard to Sabbath Observance.
These are dates in the calendar that Yah has set-apart for us to put Him first. If you're not going to observe them strictly, please do not be surprised when you get before the judgment seat and He says to me "Depart from me you worker of iniquity." It's a small thing actually once you decide to do it. And once you decide to do it properly, diligently, conscientiously, rigorously. Not in a harsh legalistic way, but in a way of "I love you Father Yah, I want to please you. I want to keep your Sabbaths. Help me to keep your Sabbaths." Worship. There are two webpages Recommended Worship and Important Worship Songs on the website with a whole collection of carefully chosen songs that are reasonably correct doctrinally, don't have wrong words, I've taken wrong words out for the most part, not entirely, but to a large extent.
Wrapping Up
What is the state of YOUR relationship with the Almighty Creator?
I would like to ask you to critically examine where YOU are relative to the Almighty Creator.
Do you talk to Him constantly throughout the day and allow Him to lead you in every possible way?
Are you conscious of Him at all times?
Do you worship Him at every opportunity?
Do you count Him as your FRIEND?
Have you clearly and unambiguously heard HIM CALL YOU FRIEND?
If not, you're FAILING in your life purpose and you will be bitterly disappointed when you die.
Let's get this straight folks. Father created all of this, the universe, the solar system, planet earth, the plants, the animals and us, for one reason only – to be His friends, His companions, His confidants, and almost nobody understands that, and almost nobody comes anywhere close to achieving that.
Do you talk to Him? Do you involve Him in what you're doing? "Father should I do this or should I do that? Should I make that phone call now? What should I say to this person? Do you think I should fit this thing this way or fit it that way? Father, I can't find my spanner, can you help me?" He wants that level of communion with you, that level of involvement with you. Are you thinking about Him all the time? Saying, "You know what Father, that didn't go so well, that meeting was a bit of a mess. What do you think?" Do you worship Him at every opportunity? I have a little MP3 player that goes in my pocket and little ear bud and I have worship songs playing on that MP3 player 24 x 7. Even if I just get up and go to the toilet, I will stick that ear bud in so that I can hear. If I'm on a bus or train, I put the ear bud. In my car, I put a CD in the CD player or an MP3 player connected to the sound system.

Work with me to make a way for Yahooshua to return in victory at the end of the Millennium and make his enemies his footstool.
Folks, it matters not if you're rich or poor, educated or uneducated, short or tall, thin or fat. Doesn’t matter whether you're Muslim or Jew or Christian, a Hindu, a Buddhist, whatever. Doesn’t matter if you're a Satanist. It doesn't matter if you're a witch or a warlock. It doesn't matter if you're African or American or European or Caucasian or Asian or whatever. Father wants you to be His friend. There is an article on the website Seven Components of Drawing Close to Yah. The things to do to get close to Father. The things to do to clean up your life. He wants you to be His friend. He wants nothing more than to chat to you and talk to you as you walk along the street or as you sit at your desk and say "You know, I don’t think you should phone that person now." Or "I think you should phone that person now. And this is what I think you should say to them." It's up to you. That's what He created you for. The rest is fluff and stuff.
Folks, thank you so much. If you've not been here before, I'm going to share some stuff after this. If you've been here a few times, then I'm going to say goodnight!
In Closing
Who am I? – James Robertson, I have a Doctorate in Engineering and I am a retired Military Commander. I now work as a Management Consultant. I have over 30 years' experience of actively seeking to draw close to the Almighty following a dramatic encounter with Him on 12th March 1993 when He spoke to me audibly in a locked room and I knew for certain that He was real.
In learning about Father, I've applied my deep-seated aversion to failure borne out of an accident in early childhood coupled to my Engineering and Military training of rigour and preventing failure, to my seeking of knowledge about Father. This journey led to numerous supernatural experiences, prayers answered and clear communication with the Creator that forms the basis for what I teach in these programs.
