    Feast of Trumpets - Rosh Hashana 2021

    I believe Pentecost is relevant to both old (physical) Levitical law administered Mosaic covenant. And new (spiritual) Christ/Melchizedek administered covenant. At the 1st recorded Pentecost the Nation of Israel is born. The 10 commandments are the marriage contract. Lord is husband...

    Feast of Trumpets - Rosh Hashana 2021

    A better narration may have been: The 1st 4 feast are "COMMONLY" referred to as spring feasts. We can agree that Pentecost was the end of the early summer harvest. Having said that, Pentecost is the climax of the Passover season/spring feasts. It's linked/tied together by wave offerings via the...

    We disagree, below find 3 of many others, that also disagree with your position. Under Mosaic law (today's believer isn't under this law covenant) all males over 20yrs were required to travel to Jerusalem & observe this feast. Christians have no obligation to observe this Jewish High day...

    Man is spirit with a soul that lives in a body 1 Thes 5:23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole "spirit and soul and body" be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. (MY NOTE: We are spirit, soul & body) Heb 4:12 For the word of...

    The perennial Acts 2.38 confusion .

    We've had unfruitful water baptism exchanges in the past. I'll reply once in this thread & trust others to make their own decisions. The 120 that were in the upper room did in fact receive the Christ's gift Holy Spirit void of water baptism. They understood that Jesus was their long promised...
