I can't remember when I began to realize that going to Heaven to live forever in a mansion is not the goal of the Christian salvation. My book, The Land of Promise, may be my first effort to point out that it is the earth that is our land of promise.
Having been a student of the seven feasts of the Lord, I knew that the celebration after Pentecost is the Blowing of Trumpets. When I looked up what was true of this observance, I noticed that Trumpets is the Jewish New Year's holiday.
The Jews have two years, just as we in America do. We have a calendar year that commences on January 1. Then we have a business year that commences on July 1.
The Jewish religious year commences on Abib 1, the month of the Passover. Then there is a year of "kings and contracts" that begins on Tishri 1. It is Tishri 1 that is celebrated as New Year's day. Could we say that the observance of Trumpets means God is ready now to reveal that His intentions are in the earth? Our citizenship is in Heaven, but our inheritance is in the earth and earth's peoples.
I found this concept of two overlapping years to be significant. Since the seven feasts of Israel each have a spiritual fulfillment in God's program of redemption, the Blowing of Trumpets must mean that something of importance occurs in the program of redemption after the celebration of Pentecost.
