Are Christians supposed to keep any holy days or holidays that tend to come in the Fall or Winter? Does the Bible list the "feasts of the Lord" in any one place? Which days did Jesus keep? Which days did the Apostle Paul keep? Did early Christians, including Gentile ones, continue to keep the holy days and festivals listed in the 23rd chapter of the Book of Leviticus? Are the Fall holy days mentioned in the New Testament? Have all the holy days already been fulfilled in Christ or are there future fulfillments of them? Were the biblical festivals great? Were Christians supposed to incorporate pagan worship practices with biblical observances? Was Christmas an early festival of the Christian church? What about the influence of Emperor Constantine, Mithraism, anti-semitism on holiday observances? What about Halloween, All Saints' Day, and All Souls Day? Are there aspects of God's plan of salvation that many do not see because they do not observe the biblical holy days? What are some of the Christian meanings of the Feast of Trumpets, Day of Atonement, the Feast of Tabernacles, and the Last Day that are to be fulfilled in the future? Did Jesus encourage or condemn human traditions over the commands of God? Dr. Thiel addresses these matters and more in this sermon.
