Rosh Hashanah is Yom Teruah, a Biblical Feast Day
With the Biblical feast days around the corner I thought it would be nice to learn a little about them, especially if you are like me and don’t know much about them. The only thing I knew when I started looking more into the Old Testament is that everything was for the Jews and it […]
The Fall Feasts of Yahweh
In the last article we learned that the feast days belong to the Lord, Yahweh Elohim and not the Jewish people. He instituted them. He set forth the requirements of each one and He determined when they should take place. We also saw that anyone who claims to belong to Him is supposed to keep […]
The Feast Days of Yahweh
There has been much debate over whether or not Christians should celebrate the Jewish feasts spoken of in Leviticus. Some say there’s no reason to because they are not Jewish.

Unfortunately, what they will be celebrating unknowingly is a pagan festival that has nothing to do with Jesus at all. A matter of fact the only time the word Easter […]
A Historical Look at Pentecost

Pentecost is looked at as a New Testament teaching. However, Pentecost is a festival celebrated by Jews long before […]
What do Jesus and Easter have to do with Each Other?
Every year people, who don’t normally go to church, show up on Easter morning to celebrate Christ’s resurrection. Some even go shopping for this special occasion. They dress in their Sunday best. After Easter service, they go home to an elaborate dinner, dyed eggs, and baskets full of candy with a chocolate bunny in it. […]
Jesus Didn’t Die on Good Friday
Growing up we didn’t attend church often, but we did observe Good Friday and Easter. As a child I could not for the life of me see how Jesus could have possibly died on Friday and rose on Sunday morning. Now I knew I was young, but I just couldn’t reconcile what the Bible said […]
