Ten Commandments Monument in Alabama<br />

Answer: Just because something is a stumbling block does not make it<br />

wrong to observe. Jesus Himself was a stumbling block to His own<br />

people, but I don’t think we would disagree that He did the PERFECT<br />

will of the father. Whenever God moves in a different way from the<br />

established tradition, it will cause people to stumble because we are<br />

more accustomed to the order (outside actions) than we are to the living<br />

moving reality of the Holy Spirit.<br />

Celebrating the Feasts will be a progressive change and transition in the<br />

order of worship just like the temple change (from stones to people)<br />

was progressive when Jesus came the first time. I don’t celebrate<br />

Feasts to gain acceptance or fulfill any kind of requirements before<br />

God. I do it because I love God and it honors HIS order. God is full of<br />

mercy and He will teach His people who have hearts to love Him HOW<br />

to worship Him more in TRUTH.<br />

We are at the dawning of a new age. The devil has stolen the term<br />

“new age” and uses it to describe those who practice divination, but the<br />

truth is that the 6,000 years that God allotted to mankind is expired, and<br />

we are in a transition into God’s REST (The third day - millennial reign<br />

of Jesus). If God has determined to change the order of how we<br />

do/know/understand “church,” then that is His prerogative and He will<br />

do it whether we join in on the action or not.<br />

I am NOT trying to “push” or create a “need” for anyone to celebrate<br />

the Feasts. Jesus Himself is the ultimate reality and having a<br />

relationship with Him is the first and utmost priority. The Feasts will<br />

point to this reality without usurping this all important focus IF we<br />

walk after the Spirit and not after the flesh. If God wants his people to<br />

celebrate His Feasts, then it is going to happen. If it is just an idea of<br />

man’s, then it will ultimately fail. Just keep your eyes on Jesus and<br />

these things will come into perspective.<br />

Question: What should I do to honor the Feasts of the Lord?<br />

Answer: REMEMBER THEM. The Sabbath, and the Feasts are meant<br />

to be memorials of God’s goodness. The fourth commandment says,<br />

“REMEMBER My Sabbath day to keep it holy.” If all that you do is<br />

voice a simple, “Thank you Lord for your day of rest” on Saturday, it<br />
