    Interesting letter…! Also I am a Hebrew American and my God’s new year begins in the
    Month of Abib, 14 days before the Passover not in January because I am not a Gentile
    who uses the Gregorian Calender. God bless you all.

    January is a name of a goddess called januz, it assumed that she has 2 faces. She sees the past and the present. The changing of calender and months of the year, weekdays, times and laws are all the works of the devil to mislead God’s people. It is nowhere in the Bible where God made mention of Tibeth/January to be the 1st month of the year. It is the 10th month of the year according to Ester 2:16 He mentioned in Exodus 13:4 saying that This moth Abib/April shall be unto you a beginning of the months year, it shall be the 1st moth of the year unleavened bread shall be eaten. Any festival/celebration commemorated in the name of God should come from the Bible, if not it’s man made. If January is the 1st moth of the year why don’t they celebrate Easter or their Passover?God says my people perish because of lack of knowledge. Knowledge is power

    God bless
