How I Became a Full Moon Lunar Sabbatarian

Greetings to everyone!
My name is Charles Woods, Jr.

After reading other testimonies, I felt impressed to share my findings of the Biblical calendar, the New Moon, and true seventh-day Sabbaths. I was born and raised a fourth generation SDA. I was schooled in the system for which I thought I would never leave, for I believed and continue to believe in the seventh-day Sabbath of Yah’uah. As a matter of fact I would never even look at other websites or read any other material that was not SDA teachings, for after all we had the Sabbath truth. Right! Have you researched this for yourself? I mean, I see the calendar and it says 1st day Sunday, 2nd day Monday 3rd day Tuesday 4th day Wednesday 5th day Thursday 6th day Friday or preparation day for the Sabbath day, and 7th day Saturday ( Saturn day) it’s a no brainer, or is it? After I researched this I found out Saturday used to be the first day of the week during the Roman Empire? How did this happen and how did it change to the seventh day?

I now had begun studying symbols and Law, and discovered to my surprise what a mess this is. There are two kinds of law, Merchant Law and using merchant Law on people or sea Law? In Blacks Law 4th edition, a “person” means “corporation” or “business.” But, my body is not a business is it? In Genesis 2:7 it says, “And Yah’uah formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.” So explain to me how man became a business or corporation? I wondered what is really going on? The more I studied Law and symbols, the worse it became. I began to have fear, but remembered Yah’uah is in control. I began to study section 501c3 and discovered all churches have become government agencies. And this is where I jumped off the corporation church boat! This drew the line that was to separate me from the corporation government churches?

George W Bush on March 7 2006 signed a law making any church which signed a 501c3 a Government agency. (Constantine on March 7 A.D.321 signed a Sunday law into existence?) This is how Church and State have joined hands together. What really takes place when you belong to a State controlled church is that by default, you dethrone your heavenly father and his guidance and true leadership, and replace Him with the dragon to have absolute control of the constituency. The headquarters of the Government State churches is Washington D.C. This is where I made my stand for my Father YAH’UAH. Only my Father is on the throne of this temple of me! What? 1Co 6:19 “Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Rauch Ha Kadosh (Holy Ghost), which is in you, which ye have of Yah’uah, and ye are not your own?”

After recusal of membership I still attended the SDA church because of what I thought to be the true seventh-day Sabbath. I began to share with others the symbols and their meanings that the church was adapting and placing on their walls, signs, and logos. My employer who was an SDA informed me to stop teaching these things or he would fire me. This is where I bowed on my knees and ask my father YAH’UAH, “What do I do now?” Lo and behold a gentleman called me and asked if I could rebuild an incinerator for him. He paid my airfare and travel expenses to his place and very good pay. I no longer work for the SDA employer. The very next week after this another gentleman had me rebuild 7 incinerator floors with very good pay.

It was still in my bones to preach of the love the Father has for each of us, so I began to preach outside the church SDA teachings. I prayed to my Father Yah’uah to teach me how to present the 70 week prophesy of Daniel and accurately describe the dates of the Saviors death. I began a study online on how to calculate the prophesies, during which I ran across the book, “The Great Calendar Controversy.” At first I was leery of it, for the Bible calendar was all new to me, but I wanted to be accurate, and the calendar stood out. It became clear that the Biblical calendar was a lunisolar calendar. It depicted the New Moon as the start of each month, and they were always New Moon to New Moon for the month. I was impressed this calendar was correct and that mankind was not currently using the right calendar. But I wondered why? What has happened? When did this take place?

As I studied deeper I came across “The Creator’s Calendar” website and lo and behold their calendar was 180 degrees opposite of the other calendar in the book. The Creator’s Calendar illustrated that the New Moon is the Full Moon and not the Crescent. What now? Hum more problems to solve. However, this website had the Scripture with the original Greek and Hebrew definitions to back up their claims. The more I studied, the more I saw the problems with the crescent moon being the New Moon. I began studying the Dead Sea Scrolls and read other books of the canon in search of truth.

It became apparent that each year starts with “the great wonder in heaven,” according to Revelation 12:1. “And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the ‘brilliant’ moon (#4582 selene) under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:” Amazingly, this is the sign of the sun, moon and stars that is to begin the Biblical New Year, and this happens every year on the first day of the year. HalleluYah!

I then began to follow the truths as presented at The Creator’s Calendar, as it made sense. The “brilliant” Full New Moon marks the moon’s full birth of the month on day one at sunrise. From there she starts her waning journey down into full darkness and comes back to the full glory for the next month. I discovered that the true Sabbath is to be counted from the visible and “brilliant” Full Moon. So we are to blow our trumpet when we see her, which would be impossible if this New Moon was a dark moon, then count to the Sabbaths that follow her. Praise Yah’uah the creator of the lights, the sustainer and praise His Son Yah’usha and the Rauch ha Kadosh the (Holy Spirit).

I have just discovered, using the new calendar, that I was born on the 26th day of the 12th luni-solar month, and not on April the 18 1951. This occurred three days before the first Full New Moon of the Year, when the woman in the sky (constellation Virgo) was just arising to deliver the great sign as depicted in Revelation 12:1. This was to mark the beginning of a New Year with the woman clothed in the sun, and 12 stars on her head, and the “brilliant” (#4582 selene) Full New Moon under her feet forever established by the Creator of Lights.

“He appointed the moon for seasons; the sun makes known her [the moon’s] entrance.” Psalms 104:19

Certainly, the “Father of Lights” (James 1:17) would not have appointed the black moon for seasons, for how can you see his appointed day, and we would be walking in darkness? Refer to article, “He Ordained the Moon for Appointed Times.”

The Full Moon announces the weekly Sabbaths days and the annual Sabbath days, which are both called holy convocations. Therefore, both the weekly and annual Sabbaths are Feast Days.

Isaiah 66:23 is the restoration of His Sabbaths and New Moons. Yah’uah declared in 2 Timothy 2:15, “Study to show thyself approved unto Yah’uah, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” Matthew 24:4 states, “And Yah’usha (Jesus) answered and said unto them, ‘Take heed that no man deceive you.’” From a voice in the wilderness he declared, “Make straight the way of Yahuah!”

The Creator Loves You! And wants you to know the truth!

“And forgettest the YAH’UAH thy maker, that hath stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth; and hast feared continually every day because of the fury of the oppressor, as if he were ready to destroy? and where is the fury of the oppressor?” Isaiah 51:13

“But I am the YAH’UAH thy Elohiym, that divided the sea, whose waves roared: The YAH’UAH of hosts is his name.” Isaiah 51:15

“And I have put my words in thy mouth, and I have covered thee in the shadow of mine hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and say unto Zion, Thou art my people. Look UP!!!!!” Isaiah 51:16

Don’t trust me, study for yourself! I am continually learning of my errors.

Your friend in Yah’uah, Yah’usha, and the Rauch Ha Kadosh.
