We briefly touched on the Feasts in an earlier posting and how they were lived out in the life of Yeshua. This is the exact purpose for his coming to our plane of existence. To live out and example the life lived in observance of the Torah. The Everlasting Gospel shows that the Feasts spell out the exact plan of redemption for mankind. The Spring Feast provided the road map to the crucifixion, resurrection and ascension. The Passover Lamb becomes the Firstfruits of the dead, to provide us with Unleavened doctrine, so we could be a part of the Pentecost.
Now we need to Focus on those Feasts that Yeshua has not live out in real time. These are what we
look forward to as believers. When Yeshua hits the play button on these Feasts it will signify the End
of Days.
- Matthew 24:3-5 “And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? And what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.”
Notice Yeshua does not go into a litany of events, he told them to be aware of leaven. Paul states
specifically “of these things I have not need to tell you”. They already knew this concept as they were
well versed in the Torah.
While the masses want to quote 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 as a nuclear defense for their pretribulation
rapture theosophy…. They miss the context in which it is written. “For the Lord himself shall descend
from heaven with a shout,(trumpet) with the voice of the archangel,(word or Torah) and with the
trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be
caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air*: and so shall we ever be
with the Lord.”
- G3509 νέφος nephos (ne’-fos) n.. a cloud. (figuratively) a large, dense crowd, a great number of people. This would represent the Harvest.
- G109 ἀήρ aer (a-eer’) n. [from aemi “to breathe unconsciously,” i.e. respire: (by analogy) to blow] This solidifies the verse in
- Ecclesiastes 12:7 “Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.”
Watch the context as it is verified at the onset of this chapter: 1 Thessalonians 4:1-5 “Furthermore
then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us
how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more. For ye know what
commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus. For this is the will of God, even your sanctification,
that ye should abstain from fornication, (false god worship) That every one of you should know how
to possess his vessel in sanctification and honor; Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the
Gentiles which know not God:”
A rapture theology was created by Marcion in the first century and has been the easy way out
doctrine of the overly Leavened Pharisees. We will discuss more of the pitfalls of false doctrines and
how they have deceived mankind in the next chapter.
What are the remaining unfilled Feasts?
The Feast of Trumpets, also known as Rosh Hashanah, is a significant biblical feast with profound
eschatological (end-times) significance in Jewish and Christian theology. It is celebrated on the first
day of the seventh month of the Hebrew calendar, and it marks the beginning of the High Holy Days
or Ten Days of Repentance leading up to Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement).
The Feast of Trumpets is considered a prophetic foreshadowing of future events. In ancient Israel,
trumpets were used to announce significant events, including the gathering of the people, the start
of festivals, and as warnings of impending danger. The blowing of trumpets on Rosh Hashanah
symbolizes a divine summons and a call to repentance.
Rosh Hashanah is often referred to as the “Day of Remembrance” (Yom Hazikaron) and the “Day of
Judgment” (Yom HaDin). It is believed that on this day, God opens the Book of Life and judges all
living beings, with the central ritual of Rosh Hashanah the sounding of the shofar, a ram’s horn
trumpet. The shofar is blown one hundred times in a series of different calls, each with its specific
significance. The shofar’s sound is believed to awaken the soul, call people to repentance, and
announce the coming of God’s Kingdom.
In eschatological theology, the Feast of Trumpets is associated with future events related to the end
times. Many Christians believe that the Feast of Trumpets symbolizes the rapture, a belief in which
believers will be “caught up” to meet Jesus Christ in the air which we have previously debunked. The
sounding of the trumpets represents the final call to repentance and the gathering of God’s people.
In the Bible, the phrase “the Day of the Lord” is used to describe a future time of divine judgment,
restoration, and the establishment of God’s kingdom. Some interpret Rosh Hashanah as a type or
shadow of the Day of the Lord, signifying the culmination of God’s redemptive plan and the coming
of the Messiah in glory and power.
In 1 Corinthians 15:52, the Apostle Paul refers to the “last trumpet” that will sound at the
resurrection of the dead when believers will be transformed and receive their glorified bodies. Some
interpret this “last trumpet” as a connection to the Feast of Trumpets and the future resurrection
event.
- Revelation 8:6 “And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.”
Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, is the holiest and most solemn day in the Feast calendar. It falls
on the tenth day of the seventh month (Tishrei) and is observed with fasting, prayer, and repentance. The eschatological meaning of Yom Kippur is deeply significant, as it points to future events related to God’s final judgment, atonement, and the restoration of His people.
The central theme of Yom Kippur is atonement and reconciliation with God. According to the Bible (Leviticus 16), and Jewish tradition, the High Priest would enter the Most Holy Place in the temple
to offer sacrifices for the sins of the people. This annual ceremony served as a temporary atonement,
covering the sins of the people for that year. However, it also foreshadowed the ultimate atonement
that would be provided by the Messiah.
In eschatological theology, Yom Kippur symbolizes the final judgment that will take place at the end
of the age. The themes of repentance and judgment on Yom Kippur point to a future day when all
people will stand before God to give an account of their lives (Hebrews 9:27; Revelation 20:11-15).
On this day, God’s justice and righteousness will be fully revealed, and every person’s deeds will be
examined.
Especially for the indoctrinated 501c3 Christian, Yom Kippur carries the hope of redemption and cleansing. It points to the work of Jesus Christ as the ultimate High Priest and the perfect sacrifice for sin.
Through His sacrificial death on the cross, Jesus provides eternal atonement and cleansing for all
who put their faith in Him (Hebrews 9:11-14; 10:10-14). The shedding of His blood represents the
forgiveness of sins and the removal of guilt and condemnation. It is their responsibility to respond to this act of grace and mercy with obedience rooted in love.
Yom Kippur also signifies a day of salvation and restoration for God’s people. In the New Testament,
the Apostle Paul refers to the “fullness” or “deliverance” of the Gentiles (Romans 11:25), pointing to
a time when people from all nations will turn to the God of Israel. This points to the fulfillment of
God’s plan to reconcile all people to Himself through Jesus Christ.
Yom Kippur serves as a call to repentance and preparation for the future day of judgment. It reminds
believers of the importance of living in righteousness and holiness before God.
In the New Testament, believers are encouraged to live in a constant state of readiness, eagerly awaiting the return of Jesus and the day of final redemption (Titus 2:11-14; 2 Peter 3:10-13). As believers, Yom
Kippur reminds us of the importance of repentance, readiness, and living in righteousness as we
anticipate the glorious return of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Why does the 501c3 want to avoid this annual reminder of the future judgement? Is it fear?
The seventh and final feast is the Feast of Booths or Tabernacles, known in Hebrew as Sukkot. In
the days when the Bible was written, this was the final fall harvest festival, a time of ingathering at Jerusalem. This is where believers travel to Jerusalem to camp in tents or booths.
It was celebrated in the first century with great significance and joy, and it held both historical and agricultural importance. From a 1st-century perspective, the activities of the Feast of Tabernacles would include the following:
During the seven days of the feast, people would build temporary booths or shelters called “sukkot”
(singular: “sukkah”) made of branches, leaves, and other natural materials. These booths were
reminiscent of the temporary dwellings the Israelites used during their journey in the wilderness after
the Exodus from Egypt. Families and pilgrims would dwell in these booths for the duration of the
feast, eating their meals and spending time together in them.
Like other pilgrimage festivals, the Feast of Tabernacles involved daily worship at the Temple in
Jerusalem. Offerings, including animal sacrifices and grain offerings, were presented to God in
gratitude for the harvest and to seek His blessing for the coming year. The Temple courts would be
filled with worshippers, and the priests would perform their sacred duties.
The Feast of Tabernacles featured unique rituals that were not part of other festivals. One such ritual
was the “Water Pouring Ceremony” (Simchat Beit Hashoeva), where water was drawn from the Pool
of Siloam and poured on the altar at the Temple while the priests chanted psalms related to water
and God’s provision. This ceremony was associated with prayers for rain and God’s blessing on the
agricultural crops. Additionally, there was a “Lamp Lighting Ceremony” in the Temple’s Court of the
Women, where giant lamps were illuminated to symbolize the pillar of fire that guided the Israelites
in the wilderness.
This is why Yeshua identifies himself the way that he does to the people. John 4:10 “Jesus answered
and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink;
thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.”
John 8:12 “Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth
me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.” The literal and physical example for
humanity to follow.”
The Feast of Tabernacles was a time of great joy and celebration. The streets of Jerusalem would be
filled with pilgrims from all over Israel and beyond, singing psalms and waving palm branches.
Processions would take place with the Ark of the Covenant and the Torah scrolls, symbolizing the
Word of God and His presence among His people. The atmosphere would be festive and jubilant as
people celebrated God’s goodness and provision. Hello people! This is our example of what Heaven
will be like. A constant atmosphere of praise for YHVH and behavior towards one another influenced
by Torah.
The Feast of Tabernacles was also a time for communal meals and fellowship. Families and friends
would share meals together in their sukkot, and it was customary to invite guests and the less
fortunate to partake in the festivities. The atmosphere was one of thanksgiving and rejoicing, as
people celebrated the blessings of God and His faithfulness to His people.
- Luke 14:16-24 “Then He told him: “A man was giving a large banquet and invited many. At the time of the banquet, he sent his slave to tell those who were invited, ‘Come, because everything is now ready.’ “But without exception they all began to make excuses. The first one said to him, ‘I have bought a field, and I must go out and see it. I ask you to excuse me.’ “Another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I’m going to try them out. I ask you to excuse me.’ “And another said, ‘I just got married, and therefore I’m unable to come.’ “So the slave came back and reported these things to his master. Then in anger, the master of the house told his slave, ‘Go out quickly into the streets and alleys of the city, and bring in here the poor, maimed, blind, and lame!’ “‘Master,’ the slave said, ‘ what you ordered has been done, and there’s still room.’ “Then the master told the slave, ‘Go out into the highways and lanes and make them come in, so that my house may be filled. For I tell you, not one of those men who were invited will enjoy my banquet!’”
This parable is given to us to remind us of the eschatological meaning of Sukkot. Revelation 19:6
“Then I heard something like the voice of a great multitude and like the sound of many waters, and
like the sound of mighty peals of thunder, saying, “Hallelujah! For the Lord our God, the Almighty,
reigns. Let’s rejoice and be glad and give the glory to Him, because the marriage of the Lamb has
come, and His bride has prepared herself.” It was given to her to clothe herself in fine linen, bright
and clean; for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints. Then he *said to me, “Write: ‘Blessed
are those who are invited to the wedding feast of the Lamb.’” And he *said to me, “These are the
true words of God.”
When a person knowing or unknowingly states the Law, meaning the Torah, has been eliminated
they are systematically destroying the Everlasting Gospel. Without the Torah we have no foundation
for the fulfilment of the Everlasting Gospel. The death, burial and resurrection break the seals of
Torah and grant us access to the Promises of YHVH.
Revelation 5:1-5 “I saw in the right hand of Him who sat on the throne a scroll (Torah) written inside and on the back, sealed up with seven seals. And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the scroll and to break its seals?” And no one in heaven or on the earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or to look into it. Then I began to weep greatly because no one was found worthy to open the scroll or to look into it. And one of the elders said to me, “Stop weeping; behold, the Lion that is from the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome so as to be able to open the scroll and its seven seals.”
