Christian Feasts in the Bible

Christian Holy Days are Fulfilled Prophecy

As we pick up where we lefft off in this Biblical Feasts voyage, the stone that covered the Tomb of Jesus had been mysteriously rolled away and the tomb empty on Sunday morning. Do the math on these facts and this reveals that Jesus was killed on Thursday, not "Good Friday."

So ... Where did the term "Good Friday" come from? Many believe that because the Jewish people asked that Jesus' crucified body be taken down from the cross because it would be "Sabbath" at sunset. (Sabbath is from Friday sunset to Saturday sunset.)

So the next day was a Sabbath day (a day of rest from work).

Biblical Feasts Point of Interest ... Did you notice that it said that this particular Sabbath was an "high" Sabbath day, meaning it was a special Sabbath. The Sabbath being spoken of is a special Sabbath that occurred the day after Passover.

The first day (the 15th day of the month) was the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread and was a special Sabbath and at sunset it would have been this special Sabbath ... Not the weekly Sabbath.

The math on proving this Truth is simple ... Matthew reveals that Jesus was found missing the day after Sabbath.

Here is a Biblical Feasts in the Bible trivia question for you ... How can it be then that they asked Jesus to be taken down from the Cross on the day before Sabbath and His body was found missing the day after Sabbath when we know Jesus told us He would be in the earth 3 days and 3 nights?

Christian Holy Days Head Scratcher ... If Jesus died on Friday and was found missing on Sunday morning ... How can one ever make that add up to 3 days and 3 nights?

Friday Night
Saturday Night
Sunday Night

The problem is that Jesus was found missing Sunday morning. As I said, simple math revealing that past Hebrew Biblical Feasts in the Bible were merely shadows of Christian Holy Days to come. But, let's hurry back to our Biblical Feasts in the Bible hunt for facts ... Jesus died on the 14th day of the first month of the Jewish calendar just as every other Passover lamb being sacrificed to keep His people from death was.

The truth obtained by all of the research done creating this Biblical Feasts in the Bible chart and watching how those Old Testament holidays became the awe inspiring Christian Holy Days and Christian Feasts, continues to prove that God is truly real and so are these prophecies. Let's continue our expedition into the Biblical feasts versus Christian Holy Days in the Bible comparison. Here is our Bible Holy days from the Old Covenant and Christian events from the New Covenant chart to make doing the math even easier.

Events of Passover Are in Blue
Events of Jesus Are in Red

God is absolutely awesome, is He not?

Is it just a coincidence that just as Jesus ministered for 3½ years before His death and resurrection, that "Anti"christ's reign of terror also lasts 3½ years? Satan is trying to mirror image God's plan.

This brings us to the Biblical Feasts in the Bible concerning Jewish celebrations that are Spiritual shadows of the End Times.

Christian Holy Days and Christian Feasts Truth

As you recall, there are two sets of celebrations in the Jewish one year period. They are in the first month and the seventh month. We have explored the first month and found awesome shadows of Jesus' first visit ... We will now look into the seventh month celebrations which you will find foretells of the return of Jesus and brings on ... The End Times.

There is a celebration known as the Feast of Trumpets ... on the first day of the seventh month where there is a Sabbath (seven days) of blowing of trumpets.

Note: More Christian Holy Days adventure advice for you ... Choose to pay close attention to this next celebration shared in our Biblical Feasts in the Bible Teaching ... This celebration will be a shadow of an event to come. In Revelation, there is a time period known as the Trumpets where Angels blow Seven Trumpets and disasters start to occur.

There is also a celebration known as the Day of Atonement. On the tenth day of the seventh month the Jewish people would afflict their souls and offer an offering made by fire to make atonement before the Lord. Whoever's soul was not afflicted was to be cut off from the people.

Remember ... These Biblical Feasts in the Bible of the past Holy Days were but a shadow of Holy events yet to come. This includes the time period during the End Times. But, what events and why? Let's check it out. Oh and by the way, the purpose of the End Times is to bring souls through fiery trials to test and prove them worthy. (Purification process). The events of the End Times will certainly accomplish this. But, why would a loving God do this? Because He loves us! The last thing that God needs is more people to become Angels and later choose to become fallen angels (As they did before) to try and lure God's future children to the dark side. The vicious cycle must stop. God is merely reacting to mankind's choices they make because He gives us free will . His reaction is actually one of unconditional Love because He is trying to save us ... From ourselves. That being shared, let's get back to our Christian Holy Days and Christian Feasts study.

There also is a celebration known as the Feast of Tabernacles. On the fifteenth day of the seventh month there is a gathering of the Firstfruits of the land. It even says in Leviticus that this event will be a statute that is to be kept forever and is to be celebrated in the seventh month.

These Biblical Feasts in the Bible are merely a shadow of events to come which evolve into Christian Holy Days and Christian Feasts ...

The event in the End Times known as the Rapture is also called the Gathering and Jesus calls the 144,000 Jewish men that He sealed to protect His Firstfruit.

There is a time period in the End Times that matches these celebrations perfectly. It is during and at the end of the Trumpets. This will be the Jewish time of testing and the Rapture of the Jewish believers.

If you study the End Times ... This reveals that since the Anti christ's reign of terror ends and the Jewish people are Raptured at the Seventh Trumpet, this will be in the Jewish seventh month.

Shadows of Jesus' Return

Our Biblical Feasts in the Bible investigation into Christian Holy Days and Christian Feasts looks into future prophecy discovered and shared on the Christian Holy Days and Christian Feasts predictions concerning Israel ...

The Return of Jesus

*Note: It's very important to note that there are two firstfruits celebrations in the year, and likewise there will be two raptures. It is God, "harvesting" or gathering His own firstfruits. First He will gather the Gentiles, then He will gather the Jewish.

How do you know the first Rapture is for the Gentiles? Because Revelation 7:9 describes those who are "Raptured." It says they are people from all nations, kindreds, people and tongues ... which is the definition of Gentiles. Then in Revelation 15:2, God gathers His firstfruits, which are Jewish.

Why the Gentiles first? Because the Jewish people had the opportunity to accept Jesus as their Lord, and they crucified Him instead. Now they'll encounter Antichrist and many will accept him as their lord, and many will find Truth before the End.

Notice that in the first rapture there is no mention of Anti christ. This is because the Gospel (the Truth of Jesus) wasn't taught to the Gentiles, as for them to be able to accept Him as their Lord until after Jesus' death and Resurrection (the Time of the Gentiles), so they don't have to experience Antichrist.

Also, Jesus said, The first will be last and the last will be first. There is a time period in the End Times that matches these celebrations perfectly. It is during and at the end of the Trumpets. This will be the Jewish time of testing and the rapture of Jewish believers.

To learn more, check out this Christian Holy Days study:

Antichrist reigns terror for 3½ years as confirmed in the End Times. Sooooo, his reign of terror starts ... At Passover, which is in the first month of the Jewish year.

Major Note for Those Who Study End Times Prophecy

It is written that Antichrist has a 3½ year reign of terror after breaking a seven year false peace covenant around half way through the seven year period (3½ years). Therefore, if Antichrists' reign of terror starts at Passover ... This false peace covenant will be made 3 ½ years earlier at the Day of Atonement. Beware of any Peace deal made with Israel around the time of the Hebrew Holy Day of Atonement (the tenth day of the seventh Jewish month).

Now, back to the Biblical Feasts in the Bible Spiritual projections. This Antichrist entity is simply going to be the opposite or anti of Jesus Christ, who started His ministry at the seventh month celebrations and died for our sins at Passover during the first month celebrations.

Another Christian Holy Days Point of Interest ... How appropriate is it that Satan will start his 7 year time period at the same time of year that Jesus' ministry ended, making it appear to the unaware as if he's taking over. This also shows us that since the End Times last for seven years, and it ends in the seventh month, then it will also have to begin in the seventh month of the Jewish year as well.

Now, take a look at what Daniel wrote:

That's seventy five days after the 3½ years of the reign of Antichrist.

Well, it just so happens that seventy five days after the Day of Atonement is the celebration of Hanukkah, which is the Jewish celebration of the ousting of Antiochus Epiphanes. This evil man had the spirit of Antichrist (just as John the Baptist had the Spirit of Elijah). So, we have another Feast Shadow represented by Hanukkah, of Antichrist being ousted in the End Times. You could say that Antiochus was a shadow of Antichrist.

You may be asking yourself ... What does that have to do with me? Well, during the second 3½ years, called The Great Tribulation of the End Times, which is when Antichrist reigns, the believers in Jesus will be hidden in the wilderness. After three and a half years of abiding in the wild, as you can imagine, most anyone would be anxious to come out of hiding, assuming that all is safe, but Daniel warns ... Blessed is he who waits seventy five more days.

Firstfruits is a celebration that happens twice a year, once for each harvest time. The second or "new meat offering" was a shadow of Pentecost.

Christian Feasts Shadow Prophecy ... There is also a feast known as the Jubilee which happens every fiftieth year. It begins on the Day of Atonement, which will be the day that Antichrist's reign will end, and it is a celebration of liberty throughout all the land.

There is a force out there that is attempting to overtake us all; it is Satan. There is another force that is protecting us from him; it is the Holy Spirit. It is a battle for souls. This battle is called Spiritual Warfare, and like it or not, you are right in the middle of it.
