One thing that is as trustworthy as Samsonite is that time marches on, at least in this life. That’s why the celebration of the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashana, is so important to messianic life. Rosh HaShana literally means “head of the year” and, in essence, is a remembrance of things that have not yet happened.

For the messianic believer, one of the key things that Rosh HaShana is a remembrance of is the future return of Y’shua the Messiah and all that will follow with that event. That include the resurrection of the dead, some to glory and others to judgment, as well as the reconciliation of the Jewish people to Messiah.

Yet this is not an occasion where I want to venture too far into eschatology. Just keep in mind that the trumpets that blow on Rosh HaShana are a shadow of the trumpets that will sound to mark the return of Yeshua.
