If you are Jewish you observe the Old Testament. If you are Christian you observe the New Testament. Jesus was ultimate sacrifice so for Christians we place emphasis on that - his birth, death and resurrection. NO Old Testament feast surpasses that. Nor would I celebrate Passover over Easter. It simply wouldn't make sense.

If you toss out all that is traditional Christianity instead of biblical Christianity then it makes perfect sense.

God's Holy Days are all about Christ. They have to be since Christ himself created them and they were created FOR him:

Col 1:16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:

Talk about Scriptural hop-skotch. What exactly this has to do with Jewish holidays I know not.

And by that all-encompassing logic, then you should be eating poisonous mushrooms since "For by him were all things created..."

You may want to start focusing the Scriptures you're quoting a little more directly on the topic at hand.
