Christian Holidays or Biblical Feasts ?

Christian holidays and how they should be celebrated has been a major bone of contention among Christians: Christmas tree or no Christmas tree ? Easter egg hunts or no Easter egg hunts ? But are you aware, dear sister, that neither Christmas nor Easter, nor Pentecost for that matter, are biblical feasts, feasts Yahweh TOLD us to keep ?

The feasts we are told to keep are Passover, the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the Feast of First Fruits, the Feast of Weeks, the Feast of Trumpets, the Day of Atonement, and the Feast of Tabernacles, and there are Christians who realize that these are the appointed feasts and have started to observe them.

But alas, believe it or not, some of them actually eat lamb on Passover, thus showing that they lack even the most basic understanding of what the Passover lamb has stood for, typologically, from the beginning. The blood of the lamb saved Israel's first born sons from death. Christ's blood paid the wages for sin.

So no more lamb killing at Passover, please, for Christ was the last Passover Lamb to be killed.
