Nowadays, when you ask a Christian if they keep the Sabbath day or the Feats of God recorded in the bible they will look at you as if you had 3 ears and 1 eye. Why is this? I can understand if the Feasts of God was something that was never written in the bible and the redeemer himself (Christ) had not kept them. Almost every Christian claims that the law was abolished and nothing that is written in it should be kept. Let's see what Christ says concerning this matter:
Jn 5:19 "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.
Christ himself said he didn't come to abolish the Law (The Old Testament) but to fulfill it. This implies, the whole concept of the law being abolished is heresy because Christ never said he abolished it, rather He came to
fulfill the Old Testament so that we may receive God's blessing.
Jn 13:15 "I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you"
Jn 14:15 "If you love me, you will obey what I command"
1Jn 1:24 "The man who says, "I know him," but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in him."
It is very clear that Christ wants us to keep his commandments and to love him. Let's take a look now at two things which were written in the Old Testament that Christ Himself fulfilled so that we may accept His love by keeping them.
Ex 20:8 "Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.."
Lk 4:16 "He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom.
Christ Himself kept the Sabbath day Holy. Does he really need to keep the Sabbath Day to receive rest, blessing and make himself holy? Of course not, but this is to show us what we must do a sons of God. The God of Love promised us blessings, rest and holiness on this special day (Gen 2:1)
What about the Apostles, and disciples of Christ Jesus? the ones that really loved Him to death at the time? Did they love him by their actions? Let's see:
Acts 17:2 "As his custom was, Paul went into the synagogue, and on three Sabbath days he reasoned with them from the Scriptures.."
Acts 13:44
On the next Sabbath almost the whole city gathered to hear the word of the Lord.
Acts 15:21
For Moses has been preached in every city from the earliest times and is read in the synagogues on every Sabbath."
Acts 18:4
Every Sabbath he reasoned in the synagogue, trying to persuade Jews and Greeks.
Even the Apostles kept the Sabbath day holy. How about the so called Christians? Should they not keep the Sabbath day holy which is Saturday as well? Through the bible we can understand, any other day of Worship other than the Sabbath day is Heretic and not approved by God.
Ex 12:11, 14".. Eat it in haste; it is the LORD's Passover...14 "This is a day you are to commemorate; for the generations to come you
shall celebrate it as a festival to the LORD -a lasting ordinance.
God Almighty said "Keep the Passover because it's an everlasting ordinance" This words clearly means it should be kept forever and ever as long as there is human existance, correct? We only receive God's blessing if we obey what he commands, God didn't saiy these things in vain!
Nu 23:19 "God is not a man, that he should lie,
nor a son of man, that he should change his mind.
Does he speak and then not act?
Does he promise and not fulfill?
God will never change his mind. If he said to keep the Passover as well as the Sabbath day, is for our blessing not anyone else's.
Jn 13:1 ".. Having loved his own who were in the world, he now showed them the full extent of his love."
This is the night when he washed his disciples feet and gave them ETERNAL LIFE THROUGH THE PASSOVER: JN 6:53
Lk 22:13They left and found things just as Jesus had told them. So they prepared the Passover.
Lk 23:14 When the hour came, Jesus and his apostles reclined at the table. And he said to them, "I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.
Jesus Christ Himself before He left this world He showed us the full extent of His love by keeping the Passover with his disciple. Is this teaching difficult to follow? He did not call it "communion" nor "euchrist" or any other name, Jesus Christ simply called it Passover. What was the last warning Jesus Christ left us concerning the adding and taking words away from the bible. Let's see:
Rev 22:18I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book. 19And if anyone takes words away from this book of prophecy, God will take away from him his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book.
Thanks to be to Heavenly Father Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother New Jerusalem because, just like many christians, I thought all the laws in the old testaments were abolished. However, as you can see they were not abolished, but men chose to take words out of the bible and add their own interpretation. Christ Ahnsahnghong brought reminded us of the Truth of Life by bringing all the Feasts of God back as prophesied (Hb 9:28, Is 25:6) so that we may have the right to the Tree of Life and the Holy City, Heavenly Mother New Jerusalem who is testified about in the bible:)
The Words of Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother New Jerusalem are living and active and bring forth eternal life.
*How did Christ fulfill the law? Keep watch for the next post:)
