Prayer Calendar for  <\/span>2014-2015<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/a><\/o:p><\/span>
\n<\/o:p><\/span>
\nOur purpose here is to help fix things through prayer for God and you and me. That is, we are not fixing things for any Church or the Bible or other Church authority but for each and for both of us helped along with God as a real person, listening and praying and talking with us about it.  Fixing things like this is not like mixing iced tea (which we like to have half sweetened and half unsweetened). But they must be fixed, not just half right for you and half right for me, and half right for God… but al-right (that is all-right) for all three of us. Together we will certainly be able to improve things through prayer over a long period of time. If you want, not just to discuss, but to post prayers over such a period, <\/o:p><\/span>please also see our prayer request postings at http:\/\/www.yhwhschofchrist.org<\/span><\/a>where you can register and post your own prayers for us to contemplate and pray with you.<\/span><\/div>\n

Holy Days 5775-5776\/2013 Confession of St. Peter (Jan 18 Psalm 23), Conversion day of St. Paul (Jan. 25 Psalm 67), ,Tu B\u2019Shvat (Festival of the Trees January 16), International Holocaust Remembrance Day (Jan. 27) ,  St. Valentine’s day and Purim Katan (February 14)<\/span><\/p>\n

Purim Katan occurs in the Jewish calendar and is especially celebrated by the Karaite Jews who were founded in the Crimea Black Sea coast area and present-day Iraq area by Jews in the millennium before the last. Although St. Andrew, being a Christian who represents Jesus was not a Karaite, he did help bring Christianity to some of these region and probably agrees with many of the Karaite views about the importance of the written Torah over the Oral Law. Just this last week in February it was heartening to see the rebirth and re-emergence of celebration of Russian History and athletic excellence in the 2014 winter Olympics in the Black Sea Russian area of Sochi.  Notice the 5 St. Andrew’s crosses which carry the divine light from the 1st to 2nd, the 3rd and 4th metaphysical levels of creation.
\nSome of these crosses contain the Buddhist ” 3 diamond meditation” see 2010 htpp:\/\/www.ourprayergroup.blogspot postings.  See also the 2006 postings of spiritual ascension meditations in this blog. These crosses come from the masculine part of our divine self. The 5 feminine circles, some of which have a human heart inside, represent the infinite regenerative and repeating parts of this mediation on the Holy Spirit inside of the human heart.<\/p>\n

Merry “Kissmas” St. Valentine’s day Christmas Yantra, click to enlarge in your screen, this St. Valentine’s day heart contains a branch of righteousness placed in God’s Tree of Life which grows inside of us, with Moses’ spiritual son Aaron’s meditation among the 11 tribes of Israel priestly breastplate.

<\/span>You may also note that this day is called “Transfiguration Sunday” the sixth Sunday after Epiphany in the Revised Standard Vanderbilt Library lectionary we follow this year at:<\/span>
\nhttp:\/\/lectionary.library.vanderbilt.edu\/lections.php?year=B&season=Epiphany<\/a>.<\/span>
\nWhat is going on here? Are there two “Transfiguration Sundays” one in February aligned with Jewish Katan Purim and the Protestant Revised lectionary and one in August aligned with the Jewish New Year and the Catholic liturgy?<\/span><\/p>\n

For those who want to meditate about this it is a deep teaching about how the metaphysics of the Biblical liturgy realizes itself in us throughout the year.<\/span>

\n <\/span>[For Bible readings and Psalms that go with these Holy Days see the Episcopal Book of Common Prayer (both the two year daily office and the two year lectionary readings) or the three year revised common lectionary at http:\\divinity.library.vanderbilt.edu\/lectionary . The revised common lectionary was created for the occasions of common prayer and worship services among Protestants, Catholics and Jews. It has more readings from the Old Testament than the ordinary episcopal or catholic lectionary. Using these two or three year daily offices is an excellent way to keep track of an intention for reading most of the Bible in two years. The best translation of the Bible I have found is \u201cThe Amplified Bible\u201d published by Zondervan. It has cross-references in the text to related passages and prophecies which make this translation even more of a \u201cTree of Life\u201d than others.]<\/span><\/p>\n
