Genesis 5:1-2
This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that Yahweh
created man, He made him in Yahweh's likeness.
2 He created them male and female, and blessed them, and called their
name Adam, in the day when they were created.
3 Adam lived one hundred thirty years, and became the father of a
son in his own likeness, after his image, and named him Seth.
4 The days of Adam after he became the father of Seth were eight
hundred years, and he became the father of sons and daughters.
5 All the days that Adam lived were nine hundred thirty years, then
he died.
Now I ask you, how could it have been possible for "The Generations of
Adam" to have been recorded in Scripture if Birthdays were not
acknowledged? Answer: Neither the "Generations of Adam" nor the
generations of any of Yahweh's Chosen people or their animal sacrifices
would have been possible if they had not kept track of Birthdays.
Genesis 12:4
4 So Abram went, as Yahweh had spoken to him. Lot went with him.
Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed out of Haran.
Did Scripture record that animals had birthdays? Absolutely, and their
birthdays were acknowledged and recorded.
Genesis 15:9
9 He said to him, "Take me a heifer three years old, a female goat
three years old, a ram three years old, a turtle-dove, and a young
pigeon."
Exodus 30:11-15
11 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
12 "When you take a census of the children of Israel, according to
those who are numbered among them, then each man shall give a
ransom for his soul to Yahweh, when you number them; that there be
no plague among them when you number them.
13 They shall give this, everyone who passes over to those who are
numbered, half a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary; (the shekel
is twenty gerahs;) half a shekel for an offering to Yahweh.
14 Everyone who passes over to those who are numbered, from
twenty years old and upward, shall give the offering to Yahweh.
15 The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less, than
the half shekel, when they give the offering of Yahweh, to make
atonement for your souls.
And finally.
1 Timothy 5:9
9 Let none be enrolled as a widow under sixty years old, having been
the wife of one man,
Now I say to you all, 'Let us use Spiritual Sense here.' Birthdays are like any
other physical act within a persons life. Anything that takes the place of or
has more importance in ones life than obedience to Yahweh is a sin.
Therefore BIRTHDAYS are not a sin unless we put more emphasis on them
than on obedience to Yahweh. Additionally, sending someone a Birthday
Card is not a selfish (sinful) act, unless there is an underlying evil intent or
selfish motive.
