Christ Did Not Fulfill All The Feasts. They Are Not Abolished.

Only the Spring Feasts were fulfilled. The Fall Feasts will not be fulfilled until the 2nd coming, except the 8th Day which will be fulfilled when the New Heaven and Earth will be created.

Passover reminds us of Christ's death. He is the Passover. By keeping Passover we better understand Christ as the Lamb of God. "Do this in remembrance of Me." Do what? Passover. Communion was not originally separate from Passover. Communion is an essential part of Passover.

Firstfruits reminds us of Christ's resurrection. This is also a foreshadowing of the first resurrection in Revelation. This is not about a bunny god laying eggs.

Pentecost reminds us of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. The apostles were gathered in observance of Pentecost in Acts 2. This was after Christ's resurrection and return to Heaven. So why were they still keeping a Jewish Feast? Did they miss the memo? Or were they doing the right thing by keeping the Feast?

Trumpets is not yet fulfilled. It prophecies the 2nd coming of Christ as a lion. In power and great glory. By keeping this Feast we look forward to Christ coming in His true power.

Atonement is not yet fulfilled. It prophecies the coming judgment. On this most Holy Day of the year, we fast and pray and put away sins. We know that Christ is the judge. And His judgment will be justified.

Tabernacles is not yet fulfilled. It is a shadow of the age to come. Christ will be King on Earth for 1,000 years. This is known as the Millenium.

The 8th Day is not yet fulfilled. It prophecies the New Heaven and Earth that will be created after the Millenium.

Purim and Hannuka both remind us of Yahweh's protection. In both of these He saved His people from extinction.

The fall feasts are in regard to events connected to the second coming - but all animal sacrifice and offerings end at the cross has Heb 10:4-12 points out.

We keep the Feasts today but do not do the Temple sacrifices as there is no physical Temple or legitimate priesthood. If Temple sacrifices were to resume it would require nothing less than the return of Christ, as he is the High Priest. Anyone who attempts to resume Temple procedures would be in violation of Torah. Even Orthodox Jews are waiting for their messiah to come in order to resume the Temple procedures.

There were animal and grain sacrifices and offerings on the weekly Sabbaths as well.

We still keep the Sabbath. The weekly Sabbath is included in the list of Holy Days in Leviticus 23.

Jesus is the Sabbath.

Matthew 11:28
Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Hebrews 4:9
So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God,

Hebrews 4:3
For we who have believed enter that rest, as he has said, “As I swore in my wrath, ‘They shall not enter my rest,’” although his works were finished from the foundation of the world.

Hebrews 4:1
Therefore, while the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us fear lest any of you should seem to have failed to reach it

Brother, you are giving a different meaning to how God used the word "rest" in Hebrews 3 and 4, where He tells us that the word "rest" refers to the time that God rested from His work after creating the world in the seventh day of creation week. Giving any other meaning to the word "rest" is not God's message in Hebrews 3 and 4. Hebrews 3 and 4 makes two announcements about God's "rest" on the seventh day of creation week. The word "rest" refers to the Sabbath on which they entered in the Promised Land, but not during the 40 years in the desert. In both places they kept a Sabbath, but those two Sabbaths were different. The Sabbath with Manna for 40 years in the desert did not enter God's "rest" as did the Sabbath in the Promised Land since Joshua because they were different Sabbaths: one was from morning to morning and the other from evening to evening. One fell on the seventh day of the week, the other does not, although it was wrongly supposed as the seventh day of the week since Joshua.

God’s promise of entering his rest still stands, so we ought to tremble with fear that some of you might fail to experience it. For this good news—that God has prepared this rest—has been announced to us just as it was to them. But it did them no good because they didn’t share the faith of those who listened to God. For only we who believe can enter his rest. As for the others, God said, “In my anger I took an oath: ‘They will never enter my place of rest,’” even though this rest has been ready since he made the world. We know it is ready because of the place in the Scriptures where it mentions the seventh day: “On the seventh day God rested from all his work.” But in the other passage God said, “They will never enter my place of rest.” (Hebrews 4:1-5 NLT)

United in our hope for the soon return of Jesus, Jorge

I don't think Paul heard that from Jesus. He must have picked up that line from somewhere else.

Letting the scriptures interpret scripture, which one of those scriptures that you have provided says Jesus is the Sabbath? - None of them. The only definition of the "Sabbath" according to the bible is "the seventh day" of the week...

Exodus 20:10 [10], BUT THE SEVENTH DAY IS THE SABBATH OF THE LORD YOUR GOD: ...

Your reading into the scriptures what they do not say and do not teach.

Take Care.

Brother, the only definition of the "Sabbath" according to the Bible is "the seventh day in Eden", which makes the Sabbath independent of the seventh day of the week anywhere other than Eden. What does it mean to make a time holy? Does it mean, as is our tradition, that we enter the Sabbath at different times or are we all to enter the Sabbath together? The time zone is present in the commandment in the sense that it takes you back to the creation week where God made the Seventh day "holy" in that time zone. The Sabbath is "the seventh day in Eden" and not the seventh day of the week in the Promised Land, where it falls 10 hours earlier than the local seventh day of the week because remembered it is in the Eden time zone.

Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your male or female servant, nor your animals, nor any foreigner residing in your towns. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy. (Exodus 20:8-11 NIV)​

A Gentile cannot celebrate the Passover unless they are circumcised.

Gentiles cannot be circumcised.

Therefore, a Gentile cannot be Torah observant.

Not according to the scriptures. Israel were not in the garden of Eden when God said Exodus 20:10 [10], BUT THE SEVENTH DAY IS THE SABBATH OF THE LORD YOUR GOD: ...

Please do not bother responding to me George. I do not believe your teachings are biblical and we have discussed these things many times in many threads and posts where you have been provided scripture to show why I believe your teachings are not biblical so we are not going to agree here, so let's leave it there and we will agree to disagree. Thanks for your understanding George

Take Care. :wave:

Brother, the truth is in the details! How did Joshua enter the Sabbath without succeeding in giving them this "rest"? Hint, Joshua did not "benefit" from the lesson of the two different Sabbaths: one from morning to morning with Manna for 40 years, where God by "oath" had prevented them from entering His "rest" near the Promised Land and the other from evening to evening in the Promised Land where they entered His "rest", although it was not the seventh day of the week in the Promised Land as assumed since Joshua.

So God’s rest is there for people to enter, but those who first heard this good news failed to enter because they disobeyed God. So God set another time for entering his rest, and that time is today. God announced this through David much later in the words already quoted: “Today when you hear his voice, don’t harden your hearts.” Now if Joshua had succeeded in giving them this rest, God would not have spoken about another day of rest still to come. So there is a special rest still waiting for the people of God. For all who have entered into God’s rest have rested from their labors, just as God did after creating the world. So let us do our best to enter that rest. But if we disobey God, as the people of Israel did, we will fall. (Hebrews 4:6-11 NLT)​

Jesus said He came to fulfill the Law, not part of it. The feast days and Sabbath were part of the Law. Jesus is God and God does not just do things in part. He would have said I came to fulfill part of the Law if that was His intention. Col 2:16-17 Paul certainly believed Jesus. He knew that feast days, new moons and the weekly Sabbath were shadow laws, and we should not be judged for not keeping laws that Jeus fulfilled. Eph 2:15 also agrees with Matt 5:17. As Klute wrote, Gentiles could not celebrate the Passover unless they were circumcised. Acts 15: 7 After much discussion, Peter got up and addressed them: “Brothers, you know that some time ago God made a choice among you that the Gentiles might hear from my lips the message of the gospel and believe. 8 God, who knows the heart, showed that he accepted them by giving the Holy Spirit to them, just as he did to us. 9 He did not discriminate between us and them, for he purified their hearts by faith. 10 Now then, why do you try to test God by putting on the necks of Gentiles a yoke that neither we nor our ancestors have been able to bear? 11 No! We believe it is through the grace of our Lord Jesus that we are saved, just as they are.”

To make the argument that somehow we are still under the requirements of old covenant Law just does not coincide with the Holy Writ, New Testament.

Sorry George, but I do not believe your teachings. As shown earlier from the scripture their not biblical.
Brother, you showed me a bad translation. A translation that misidentified "Joshua" as Jesus! Interpreting the "good news" that "did them no good" as the message of Jesus, when Jesus is not before David. The "good news" that "did them no good" was heard by "Joshua" before David. God wants us to pay attention to this "good news" that "Joshua" heard: the "good news" of how to enter the "rest" of God with the two different Sabbaths, where to keep the seventh day of the week near the Promised Land with Manna from morning to morning did not enter the "rest", that Joshua later entered with them in the Promised Land from evening to evening, but that Sabbath was not the seventh day of the week as assumed since Joshua. We have not benefited from this "good news" of how to enter God's "rest" to correct the human tradition since Joshua, where the Sabbath in the Promised Land is not the seventh day of the week as it was in Eden. Here is a translation that does not assume that "Joshua" is Jesus when translating the "good news" that "did them no good". Notice that it says that we "can" enter and not that we have entered God's "rest" as assumed due to interpreting "Joshua" as Jesus. Our tradition does not enter God's "rest" until corrected is God's Sabbath from the human tradition of thinking that the Sabbath in the Promised Land is the seventh day of the week as in Eden since Joshua.

God’s promise of entering his rest still stands, so we ought to tremble with fear that some of you might fail to experience it. For this good news—that God has prepared this rest—has been announced to us just as it was to them. But it did them no good because they didn’t share the faith of those who listened to God. For only we who believe can enter his rest. As for the others, God said, “In my anger I took an oath: ‘They will never enter my place of rest,’” even though this rest has been ready since he made the world. We know it is ready because of the place in the Scriptures where it mentions the seventh day: “On the seventh day God rested from all his work.” But in the other passage God said, “They will never enter my place of rest.” So God’s rest is there for people to enter, but those who first heard this good news failed to enter because they disobeyed God. So God set another time for entering his rest, and that time is today. God announced this through David much later in the words already quoted: “Today when you hear his voice, don’t harden your hearts.” Now if Joshua (not Jesus) had succeeded in giving them this rest, God would not have spoken about another day of rest still to come.

Hi guevaraj, my man!

A quick question, at least I hope it's quick. :)

If you believe it is important to celebrate things like the feasts according to Eden time, where do you believe Eden was/is?

Brother, the site was hidden in our past by the Sabbath tradition in the Promised Land since Joshua that did not fully expose the truth about the Sabbath that God established on the seventh day of the creation week. God set the true International Date Line site when He taught Adam to count the days with the week in Eden. God could have been anywhere on the earth when He did this, but because He was in Eden, set was the true International Date Line site in Eden and preserved by our tradition of counting the days with the week from the beginning. Thanks to the website "islamicfinder.org" which provides sunrise times for all areas of the world, I have found an island near the International Data Line, Rekareka, with a sunrise just one minute before sunset in Israel. This places Eden's Longitude @ 145.092069º W as the site of our origin where God taught us to count the days with the week.

Thanks for the post. Sorry, but I couldn't follow what you were saying.

Maybe we will get a chance to talk about it more in depth on a different thread.

Peace be with you!

Brother, you showed me a bad translation. A translation that misidentified "Joshua" as Jesus! Interpreting the "good news" that "did them no good" as the message of Jesus, when Jesus is not before David. The "good news" that "did them no good" was heard by "Joshua" before David. God wants us to pay attention to this "good news" that "Joshua" heard: the "good news" of how to enter the "rest" of God with the two different Sabbaths, where to keep the seventh day of the week near the Promised Land with Manna from morning to morning did not enter the "rest", that Joshua later entered with them in the Promised Land from evening to evening, but that Sabbath was not the seventh day of the week as assumed since Joshua. We have not benefited from this "good news" of how to enter God's "rest" to correct the human tradition since Joshua, where the Sabbath in the Promised Land is not the seventh day of the week as it was in Eden. Here is a translation that does not assume that "Joshua" is Jesus when translating the "good news" that "did them no good". Notice that it says that we "can" enter and not that we have entered God's "rest" as assumed due to interpreting "Joshua" as Jesus. Our tradition does not enter God's "rest" until corrected is God's Sabbath from the human tradition of thinking that the Sabbath in the Promised Land is the seventh day of the week as in Eden since Joshua.

God’s promise of entering his rest still stands, so we ought to tremble with fear that some of you might fail to experience it. For this good news—that God has prepared this rest—has been announced to us just as it was to them. But it did them no good because they didn’t share the faith of those who listened to God. For only we who believe can enter his rest. As for the others, God said, “In my anger I took an oath: ‘They will never enter my place of rest,’” even though this rest has been ready since he made the world. We know it is ready because of the place in the Scriptures where it mentions the seventh day: “On the seventh day God rested from all his work.” But in the other passage God said, “They will never enter my place of rest.” So God’s rest is there for people to enter, but those who first heard this good news failed to enter because they disobeyed God. So God set another time for entering his rest, and that time is today. God announced this through David much later in the words already quoted: “Today when you hear his voice, don’t harden your hearts.” Now if Joshua (not Jesus) had succeeded in giving them this rest, God would not have spoken about another day of rest still to come. So there is a special rest still waiting for the people of God. For all who have entered into God’s rest have rested from their labors, just as God did after creating the world. So let us do our best to enter that rest. But if we disobey God, as the people of Israel did, we will fall. (Hebrews 4:1-11 NLT)​

Hebrew and Greek Dictionaries w/TVM, Strong - G2424
Ἰησοῦς (Iēsoûs | ee-ay-sooce')
Derivation: of Hebrew origin (H3091);
Strong's: Jesus (i.e. Jehoshua), the name of our Lord and two (three) other Israelites
KJV: —Jesus.
See: H3091

Really makes no difference George Joshua was a type of Jesus and the name translates either way in the Greek and your disregarding scripture context in Hebrews 4:1-5 that defines God's rest/His rest/My rest to the "seventh day" that those who "believe" the gospel enter into now (present tense) application.
I told you I am done with this conversation some time ago now. As your only repeating yourself and ignoring the posts and scriptures already shared with you from past conversations. So will will agree to disagree as I do not believe your teachings are biblical.

Take Care.

Only the Spring Feasts were fulfilled. The Fall Feasts will not be fulfilled until the 2nd coming, except the 8th Day which will be fulfilled when the New Heaven and Earth will be created.

Passover reminds us of Christ's death. He is the Passover. By keeping Passover we better understand Christ as the Lamb of God. "Do this in remembrance of Me." Do what? Passover. Communion was not originally separate from Passover. Communion is an essential part of Passover.

Firstfruits reminds us of Christ's resurrection. This is also a foreshadowing of the first resurrection in Revelation. This is not about a bunny god laying eggs.

Pentecost reminds us of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. The apostles were gathered in observance of Pentecost in Acts 2. This was after Christ's resurrection and return to Heaven. So why were they still keeping a Jewish Feast? Did they miss the memo? Or were they doing the right thing by keeping the Feast?

Trumpets is not yet fulfilled. It prophecies the 2nd coming of Christ as a lion. In power and great glory. By keeping this Feast we look forward to Christ coming in His true power.

Atonement is not yet fulfilled. It prophecies the coming judgment. On this most Holy Day of the year, we fast and pray and put away sins. We know that Christ is the judge. And His judgment will be justified.

Tabernacles is not yet fulfilled. It is a shadow of the age to come. Christ will be King on Earth for 1,000 years. This is known as the Millenium.

The 8th Day is not yet fulfilled. It prophecies the New Heaven and Earth that will be created after the Millenium.

Purim and Hannuka both remind us of Yahweh's protection. In both of these He saved His people from extinction.

References: Leviticus 23, Zechariah 14:16-19, Isaiah 66:22-24, Matthew 5:17-18, Acts 2, Acts 18:21, Acts 20:6, Romans 2:13, Romans 3:31, 1 Corinthians 5:6-8, 1 Corinthians 16:8.

Excellent points!

Hosea 6:3 Let us know, Let us pursue the knowledge of the Lord. His going forth is established as the morning; He will come to us like the rain, Like the latter and former rain to the earth.

The former rains are in Spring and the latter rains are in the Fall. These are the two times of the year the Lord will come. It is no coincidence that the appointed times (feasts) are also in the Spring and Fall.
