Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, might be the most "Christian" of God's holy convocations! (A guest post from Kay Behrens.)

Tonight on the Biblical Calendar that we follow is the Day of Atonement. A day that while it is upcoming, everyone focuses on repentance. Should we only repent this time of year? No, of course not. But, God does make this a special time of year. One to look deep into yourselves and find everything that you may be holding onto and turning away from it.
As pointing out in the comic, church mainly teaches that someone who is sorrowful is someone who is repentant. This is not what the Bible says. I can be sorrowful over the fact that I took my neighbor's lunch at school. I can apologize to them. But If I continue eating it, or do it again on down the road, I didn't repent. I was just sorry I got caught.
The word for repent in Hebrew is שוב (shub), which is defined by turning back, returning. Returning to what? The path set forth. The instructions. תורה (Torah). Torah is translated as Law in our Bibles, but this isn't what the word means. Torah's root is ירה (yara) which is an archery term for aiming at a mark. Torah is hitting the mark. Torah is the instructions, the path we aim to be on. As Jesus/Yeshua put it in John 8:11 "Go and sin no more."

To all Covenanted children of the Creator of the Universe...Chag Yom Kippur Sameach & G’mar Chatima Tova!?
Are you ready to see the sins of the believers covered, never to be mentioned again? Yom Kippur is not about the things we do as individuals but the things we do as a body of believers. One of the most grievous things we do is to divide ourselves from each other through our traditions and denominational doctrines. We should be willing to be in one accord with each other as we should be in complete agreement with the Creator.
