Is it real The Alliance for Biblical Integrity. The Mystery of the Shemitah by Jonathan Cahn Lake Mary, Florida Front. Line, Charisma Media Charisma House Book Group, 2. The Harbinger by Jonathan Cahn became the 1 Christian book of 2. Because The Harbinger was riddled with biblical errors, theological flaws and historical misrepresentations, what started out as a 2 3 page book review, quickly turned into a book length response and led to The Berean Call publishing my first book, The Harbinger Fact or Fiction On September 2, Jonathan Cahns third book, The Mystery of the Shemitah was released to book retailers and was already ranked very high at its debut just on pre orders alone. As can be seen from the current rankings on Amazon. The Mystery of the Shemitah needs to be carefully examined to determine if the errors in The Harbinger have been corrected or perpetuated in this new volume. Although I have already done five interviews discussing this book, the article below is the first evaluation in writing to appear on the ABI website. I trust that you will take time to carefully consider my concerns and that you will feel free to contact me with your thoughts, either positive or negative. If you have trouble posting a comment, please send me an email to let me know. And finally, my purpose for evaluating and critiquing The Mystery of the Shemitah is two fold First, because so many people were influenced by The Harbinger and because this new book is already a best seller, the Body of Christ needs to see that there is another side of the story that might not be completely obvious to some. And even for those who might sense something isnt quite right, many wont really work through the sometimes slow and often laborious task of carefully checking to make sure everything is correct. Second, just as one of my goals in writing The Harbinger Fact or Fiction was to model the process of discernment, the same is true of this article. First and foremost, discernment involves checking everything against the Word of God to make sure all of the arguments, theories and claims are biblically sound. And then, beyond the biblical side of things, discernment also frequently involves evaluating the logic of arguments, the veracity of assertions from a historical perspective, and even the proper use of statistics which can be framed such that the true picture is obscured and hidden from the reader, even if unintentionally. SUMMARYThe Mystery of the Shemitah, which went to its second printing the day it was released, builds on the concepts and theories Jonathan Cahn first presented in The Harbinger, particularly those in the chapter also titled The Mystery of the Shemitah. The authors theory is that God has visited warnings and or judgment against the United States according to a seven year cycle going back many decades. Although this reviewer agrees that America is deserving of Gods judgment and a call to repentance is definitely in order, the foundational premise of this book is biblically flawed from the outset. The Shemitah Jewish Sabbath year was an obligation given specifically and exclusively to the nation of Israel, and there is no biblical support for the idea that God would either require any other nation to observe the Shemitah year or that He would impose a Shemitah type judgment according to a seven year cycle on any nation, including Israel itself. In Christian theology, justification is Gods act of removing the guilt and penalty of sin while at the same time declaring a sinner righteous through Christs. Beyond this, the Shemitah, being a Sabbath and an integral part of the Law of Moses, was completely fulfilled in Christ and is no longer in operation even it actually did affect other nations prior to the Cross. Furthermore, none of the overwhelming number of assertions and fact claims throughout the book concerning economic trends, financial statistics and historical events are documented whatsoever, raising the question of the source of the authors information, the accuracy of that information, and why this most basic and necessary aspect of any research based non fiction book is completely missing. The burden of proof for such assertions and claims should never be on the reader if an author is to be taken seriously. In addition, the integrity of any publisher is rightly called into question when an author doesnt cite his sources. The bottom line is that, unfortunately, the significant problems that plague The Harbinger have possibly been exceeded in this book and so should give pause to anyone who takes the Word of God seriously. BACKGROUNDIn the Law of Moses, God required that His chosen people, the Children of Israel, cease from their work on the seventh day of each week the Sabbath. Hasta La Vista Telecharger Vf on this page. In addition to the Sabbath day, the Lord also instructed Israel to observe every seventh year as a Sabbath, as well. During the Sabbath year, the Israelites were to allow the land to rest from planting and harvesting and to allow whatever came up on its own to be picked by the poor among them. Exodus 2. 3 1. 0 1. Leviticus 2. 5 1 7 And just as God had provided a double portion of manna on the 6th day of each week while the Israelites were in the wilderness so they would not have to work on the Sabbath, the Lord actually tripled the harvest in the sixth year to carry them through to the harvest in the first year of the new seven year cycle. Not only was it an agrarian cycle, but it was an economic one, as well. On the last day of the Sabbath year, lenders were required to forgive or release the meaning of Shemitah borrowers from the obligation of repaying their debts. Juan Gabriel Exitos Rapidshare. Deuteronomy 1. 5 1 Over time, the last day of the Sabbath year and the year itself came to be known as the Shemitah pronounced shmi tah. Although one would naturally suppose that such a system would wreck an economy and the lives of those who possessed enough to be lenders rather than borrowers, once again keeping the Lords command in this matter would be a source of blessing rather than hardship for the Lord will greatly bless you in the land which the Lord your God is giving you to possess as an inheritanceonly if you carefully obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe with care all these commandments which I command you today. For the Lord your God will bless you just as He promised you you shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow you shall reign over many nations, but they shall not reign over you. Deuteronomy 1. 5 4a 6Among other serious sins, the Israelites disobeyed the Lords command not to take foreign wives who came from nations where idolatry and the worship of false gods was practiced Deuteronomy 7 1 5. As a result, the idolatrous practices and pagan worship of those nations became an integral part of Israels own religious practices. Consequently, the worship of the one true God was largely abandoned and the Law of Moses was largely ignored. By the end of the sixth century B. C., Israel had failed to observe a total of seventy Sabbath Shemitah years. In judgment against Israels pervasive and persistent sin, God used the Babylonian empire to execute judgment upon the southern kingdom of Judah beginning in 6. B. C., just as He had used the Assyrians over a century earlier against the northern kingdom of Israel. In addition to ultimately leveling Jerusalem and destroying the temple, the Babylonians carried away large numbers of Israelites into captivitya captivity that lasted for 7. Sabbath year that the nation had failed to observe the Shemitah.
