Revisiting the Shemitah Judgment

The completion of the Shemitah has occurred without too much of a disruption.  I have not published a post for some time due to other obligations but wanted to post on this subject. 


Various notable events in history have occurred during the Shemitah.  It has been proposed by some that a major judgment occurs during this year. In a post, that I posted last year I suggested judgment may occur during this year because of a lack understanding and misapplying its purpose.  Perhaps judgment was held off this last year because of considering the seventh year of debt release.  Perhaps several congregations have dropped their unscriptural teaching of the continual annual tithing and repented. Perhaps some creditors became soft on insisting debts to be paid.  I am sure that things like this did occur.  Wouldn't it be possible that a discipline to occur on me if I held a debt over a brother in a Shemitah year?  Perhaps by some with understanding repented and held off a major judgment. Something to think about.


And by the way there was something major that did occur, the stock market averages incurred a significant drop of 9.75% in the last three months of the Shemitah.
