While WLC continues to uphold the observance of the Seventh-Day Sabbath, which is at the heart of Yahuwah's moral law, the 10 Commandments, we no longer believe that the annual feast days are binding upon believers today. Still, though, we humbly encourage all to set time aside to commemorate the yearly feasts with solemnity and joy, and to learn from Yahuwah’s instructions concerning their observance under the Old Covenant. Doing so will surely be a blessing to you and your home, as you study the wonderful types and shadows that point to the exaltation of Messiah Yahushua as the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords, the conquering lion of the tribe of Judah, and the Lamb of Yahuwah that takes away the sins of the world.

Why don’t the moon's primary phases always line up directly with the Sabbath days: 8th, 15th, 22nd, and 29th?
Question: Why
don’t the moon's primary phases always line up directly with the Sabbath days:
8th, 15th, 22nd, and 29th?
Answer: The
moon's primary phases will not always line up perfectly with the Sabbath days
for the following reasons:
There are about 29.5 days between one
conjunction and the next. Because months
cannot have 1/2 days, each lunar month is either 29 or 30 days.
The lunar-solar conjunction can occur anytime
during the day or night. New Moon Day,
however, always commences at the first
dawn after conjunction. This means that
sometimes the month will begin more than 23 hours after conjunction, while at
other times, the month will begin only a few moments after conjunction.
The perfect phases of the moon are achieved in
an instant, but it takes 24 hours for everyone on earth to see the moon. While some will see the perfect phases,
others will see the moon just before or just after it has achieved its perfect
shape.
It should be noted here that there are occasional anomalies
in the moon’s behavior, meaning there are times when the
moon will not become 100% full until the 16th day of the lunar
month. For example:
In Brisbane,
Australia, the moon will not reach 100% illumination (Full Moon) until the
morning of July 2 (2015), which is the 16th day of the lunar month
there. The moon, during this particular
lunation, takes longer than usual to become full, but then takes less time to
return to new moon.
New Moon = June 16 (2015) @14:05
It takes 15
Days, 12 Hours to get to…
Full Moon = July 2 (2015) @02:20
It then takes only 13
Days, 23 Hours to get to…
New Moon =July 16 (2015) @01:24
