Passover OT – about exodus sacrifice NT – about new exodus sacrifice – new covenant symbols – the ONLY way to God is through Christ – not through the Pharaisees, a nation, a church but through Jesus Christ. Not something that was earned but a free gift for all Sinners. It should be a unifying practice.

What about the times they didn’t keep the feasts properly? 5 So they resolved to make a proclamation throughout all Israel, from Beersheba to Dan, that they should come to keep the Passover to the Lord God of Israel at Jerusalem, since they had not done it for a long time in the prescribed manner. 8 For a multitude of the people, many from Ephraim, Manasseh, Issachar, and Zebulun, had not cleansed themselves, yet they ate the Passover contrary to what was written. But Hezekiah prayed for them, saying, “May the good Lord provide atonement for everyone 19 who prepares his heart to seek God, the Lord God of his fathers, though he is not cleansed according to the purification of the sanctuary.” 20 And the Lord listened to Hezekiah and healed the people.

Days of Unleavened Bread Unleavened Bread – represent going with God and also represented the Manna from Heaven New Covenant - Unleavened Bread represents? John 6:32-40 Exodus reminder – what they needed to leave Egypt and make it to the promised land they didn’t create. It wasn’t because they were the greatest assembly. They relied on God alone. Unity

Feast of Weeks - Pentecost OT occurrence – come to God’s mountain and receive the 10 Commandments on Stone NT occurrence – Receive God’s Holy Spirit Exodus requirements What or who teaches us? Who deserves the praise and admiration? God alone – should provide unity

Trumpets To Call the Assembly A Warning For God’s help against the enemy oppressing you At times of celebration At Liberty or Jubilee At the presence of God (A Secret Rapture is opposed to all these references from the Bible and was not a theory until the last century. Place of Safety requires being with the right people. The truth is trumpets acknowledges God saves His people and God alone. Unity)

Atonement OT In order to come before God what had to happen with the congregation? Exodus 19:10-15, Leviticus 16:30 (Sin was also removed far from them as Egypt was lost in the abyss – red sea) NT In order to come before God what has to happen? Revelation 7:13-15 (Satan is also put in the Abyss)

Sins without Knowledge Do we ever make mistakes and not realize it? Did God accept people who made mistakes in ignorance? (Men with multiple wives.) God doesn’t expect perfection. He expects a heart of obedience and honest humility before Him. Are there people who have the right heart that may be in various organizations and countries around the world? Do they all believe the same and make the same judgments? (God gives His Spirit to those who obey Him Acts 5:32 but a heart of obedience and perfection are not the same.)

Matthew Another parable He put forth to them, saying: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field; 25 but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way. 26 But when the grain had sprouted and produced a crop, then the tares also appeared. 27 So the servants of the owner came and said to him, ‘Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?’ 28 He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ The servants said to him, ‘Do you want us then to go and gather them up?’ 29 But he said, ‘No, lest while you gather up the tares you also uproot the wheat with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest, and at the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, “First gather together the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn.”’”

Churches in Asia To him who has an ear to hear – overcome Vastly different people but in each case there could be wheat with the tares but what they were to deal with was rebellion or a lack of love towards God

Children They might make a lot of mistakes in naivety – without knowing any better and we still love them and hold them dearly. When they make mistakes with knowledge we get a little more annoyed and then they are held accountable. Do you realize that you are a Child of God? That each and every one of us makes mistakes in naivety.

Christ’s Fall Holy Days Judgment on sinning mankind. The church’s sins in ignorance are forgiven. Evil influence is removed. True worship of God is begun by ALL believers. The Church is united with this service and is ready to tabernacle with Christ.

Zephaniah 3 “Therefore wait for Me,” says the Lord, “Until the day I rise up for plunder; My determination is to gather the nations To My assembly of kingdoms, To pour on them My indignation, All My fierce anger; All the earth shall be devoured With the fire of My jealousy. 9 “For then I will restore to the peoples a pure language, That they all may call on the name of the Lord, To serve Him with one accord.

Who is restored? Those who humble themselves before the Lord. Those who accept Jesus Christ as Saviour – for there is no other name in which one may be saved. His Children from ALL nations, ALL tribes, and from within ALL organizations. Those who overcome by turning their life, their salvation, their trust in Christ – will be saved TO then, and only then, become the One True Church with Christ as prophet, priest and King! No wonder the Day of Atonement represents the Jubilee.

Tabernacles OT – tabernacled in Wilderness with God’s Direction waiting for the promised land of milk and honey. Earthly tabernacles now with God’s Holy Spirit. Revelation 20: 7 Now when the thousand years have expired, Satan will be released from his prison 8 and will go out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle, whose number is as the sand of the sea. 9 They went up on the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city.

Last Great Day Promised Land New Heaven and New Earth with God dwelling with us! Home at Last! The end of our journey!
