Feast of Tabernacles 2018 Testimonies

When God delivered the children of Israel out of bondage in Egypt, He gave them His Appointed times to keep and to proclaim each in their season. The weekly Sabbath was the first appointed time, then he introduced them to His annual Holy Days and the Festivals of the Lord. Three times a year Israel was to come before the Lord to keep these Feasts. These three seasons were associated with three harvests beginning with the Spring harvest of Barley. The divine appointments during this time are the Passover service and the Seven Days of Unleavened Bread. Early Summer brought about the Wheat harvest and the observance of Pentecost. (called the Feast of Weeks in the O.T.) In the Fall during the harvest of the Vine and Produce, the Feast of Trumpets, Day of Atonement, Feast of Tabernacles and Last Great Day were commanded to be celebrated.


  To a non-Christian Israelite, the Passover commemorates the death Angel passing over every Hebrew home in Egypt which had the blood of a lamb upon its doorposts. To a Christian, the Passover commemorates the death of Jesus, the true Lamb of God which takes away the sins of the world. To a Jew or Israelite, the Feast of Unleavened Bread commemorates God delivering them out of Egypt so quickly that their bread did not have time to leaven and rise. To a Christian, the Days of Unleavened Bread is a celebration that the true Passover Lamb has made the believer unleavened, that is, without sin. (leavening is used as a symbol for sin) To an understanding Christian, the seven annual Holy Days of the Lord reveal God’s great plan of salvation. Are the Holy Day Festivals of the Lord are still for Christians today. The early Church observed these Feasts. All the nations keep these divine appointments during the millennial reign of Christ. 


 It is a common claim by Christians who reject the idea of observing the annual Biblical Festivals, that they are not a part of the New Covenant and were “nailed to the cross” with Jesus. Many Christian teachers say that the Holy Days were among the Laws “added because of transgressions.” Not only is this not found in Scripture, it makes no sense. Would God “add” to Israel celebrations, -times of rejoicing before the Lord, because they sinned? Isn’t that like rewarding one of your children with a party because he did something wrong? The Biblical Feasts of the Lord were given as blessings to Israel, does it fit God’s character for Him to add a blessing because of sin?

   Let’s look at one of the Laws we know was added because of transgressions. “An eye for and eye and a tooth for a tooth.” Why would God add such a Law? Obviously, because people were mistreating one another and adding this Law protected would-be victims and impressed upon people that they should care as much about their neighbor as themselves. This Law, which carried a penalty was added because of transgressions taking place. God was saying, if you harm someone else, by Law you will suffer likewise. It is ridiculous to say the Holy Days exist as a penalty for transgressions.
