A study of the Feasts of the Lord given in Leviticus 23 is always an eye opener for Christians.

Copy and paste this and I can tell you it is a very good study on the Lord's Feast Days. Mark Biltz is a good teacher.

If you realize Jesus was a Jew talking to mainly Jews, there is much we don't get due to culture differences. It's like telling a Chinese person you will visit them on "Turkey Day". They don't have any frame of reference for a day for turkeys so they would be confused and face a mystery. It's the same for Us when Jesus tells us we will be Raptured on the Day No One Knows. Well, the Jews know that day as the Feast of Trumpets, or Rosh Hashanah. It also draws from a Jewish wedding where the groom goes to build a temporary shelter for his bride to consummate their marriage in and the father is the only one that can release his son to go get his bride. Passover, Unleavened Bread, First Fruits, and Pentecost have all been fulfilled prophetically, so we are waiting for some Feast of Trumpets for the Bride Groom to return for His Bride. After 7 years of Tribulation, then Judgement day. Immediately after, Tabernacles, where God lives with His people for 1000 years.

All these events are prophesied by the Lord's Days in Leviticus and other places. To really grow in your walk of faith, it is helpful to study the Jewish roots for Christianity. As a Christian, we were "grafted in", or adopted, into the family of God. To say you don't need to know Jewish laws, culture, and history, is to deny your spiritual heritage. If you aren't the seed of Abraham, the promises can't be yours. This is the problem with replacement theology. The promises made to Abraham in Gen 12 belong to you if you are adopted. Trying to cut the Jews out and substitute Christians doesn't work. Antisemitism cannot be part of the Body of Christ or you are guilty of hating your brother.

I see many Christians today that say they don't want anything to do with Jews and seem to put them on the same level as ISIS. These are the ones Jesus says "I never knew you".

I am a Christian who has always been drawn to the Jewish faith, and love, love, love the Jewish people. My daughter laughs about her “American Jewish heritage” because of my love for both America and the Jewish people.

Is elshaddai Paul Wilbur? I can’t tell you how many times I have watched his video from Jerusalem. It was for the year of Jubilee.
