Israel’s First Captivity in Egypt and return to the promised land on the 14th day of Nisan, Passover (Exodus 12:40) exactly 430 years after the Lord made a covenant with Abraham (Genesis 22:16-18). God prophesied that Abraham’s descendants would be in affliction and bondage for precisely 430 years. The 430 year period spoken in begins when the Abrahamic covenant was  'confirmed (Gal 3:17, Genesis 22: 16-18) by God after God saw Abraham was willing to obey God and sacrifice his Son- Issac (Abraham was 160 years and Issac was 30 years when this event took place - contrary to the popular notion that Issac was a kid/teenager when this happened) , more importantly this confirmation of covenant by God points to Lord Jesus Christ through whom all nations will be blessed(Genesis 22:18, Galatians 3:16,17). 

“Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years. And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years,even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the Lord went out from the land of Egypt” (Exodus 12:40-41). On Passover, 430 years later, the captivity ended. The Apostle Paul confirmed that the captivity lasted precisely 430 years (Galatians 3:17).
Israel’s Second Captivity and Return When many of the kings of Judah began to rebel against God,numerous people turned to idol worship and pagan gods despite God’s warnings through His prophets. The 10 northern tribes of Israel were conquered by the Assyrians in 721 B.C.E. (2 Kings17:6). Then, Jeremiah prophesied that the Kingdom of Judah would also be removed for precisely 70 years from the Promised Land beginning in 606 B.C.E. because of their sins. “And this whole land shall be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years” (Jeremiah25:11). Precisely 70 years later on the first day of Nisan, 536B.C.E. King Cyrus of Persia released the Jews, just as Jeremiah had prophesied. Despite the royal permission, only a small remnant of the Jews left Babylon and returned to Israel. The vast majority never returned, choosing rather to reside in the nationof their captivity.
The Third and Worldwide Captivity The Bible contains numerous prophecies of a final return of the exiles to the Promised Land in the “last days.” In light of the precision of the prophecies about the duration of the earlier captivities, it seemed probable to me that the prophets must have revealed when the Jews would return from their final captivity to establish their nation.
The prophet Ezekiel was given a vision concerning the final return of his people. “This shall be a sign to the house of Israel. Lie thou also upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it:according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon it thou shalt bear their iniquity. For I have laid upon thee the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days,three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel. And when thou hast accomplished them, lie again on thy right side, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: I have appointed thee each day for a year” (Ezekiel 4:3-6). Thus Israel would be punished for 430 years (390 years and 40 years).
At the end of the 70 years of prophesied captivity in Babylon, in Nisan 536 B.C.E., only a small remnant of the house of Judah returned to Jerusalem to fulfill the prophecy. The vast majority of the Jews ( note just of tribe of Judah, but Benjamin and other 10 northern tribes who were led into captivity by Assyrians earlier where also living in Assyria and its surrounding areas under the Persian empire) remained in the Persian Empire in exile. Therefore, when we deduct the 70 years in Babylon that ended in Nisan 536 B.C.E. from Ezekiel’s 430 years of punishment, Israel still had 360 years of further captivity due following the end ofthe Babylonian Captivity.  Despite the precision of Ezekiel’s prophecy there was no return to the land, either 430 years or 360 years after 536 B.C.E.
The solution to this mystery is found in Leviticus 26. The Lord established promises and punishments for Israel based on her obedience and her disobedience. God told Israel four times in this passage that if, after being punished for her sins, they still would not repent, the punishments previously specified would be multiplied by seven (the number of completion). “And if ye will not yet for all this hearken unto me, then I will punish you seven times more for your sins” (Leviticus 26:18; also Leviticus 26:21, 23-24, 27-28). In other words, if the Israelites did not repent, the punishment previously promised (360 years)would be multiplied seven times (360 years x 7 = 2,520 biblical years) to reach a total of 2,520 years. Therefore, as of 536B.C.E., the final restoration to the Holy Land would occur only after 2,520 biblical years.
The prophetic year of book of Daniel also confirms this fact by describing one-half of the 70th week ( Daniel 9:24-27 ) as containing exactly 1,260 days ( 3.5 x 360days ). Sir Robert Anderson, the brilliant head of Scotland Yard in 1895, described the 360-day year in his book The Coming Prince. The Calculation The Babylonian captivity ended in the spring of 536 B.C.E., 1stNisan. This date is the starting point for our calculations. The period of worldwide captivity would last 2,520 biblical years x360 days = 907,200 days. Converting this figure into our calendar year we divide the 907,200 days by 365.25 to reach a total of 2,483.8 calendar years. ( Remember that there is no year between 1 B.C and 1 AD there was no Year Zero).
The end of Israel’s worldwide captivity would occur after a total of 2,483.8years had elapsed from the end of the Babylonian Captivity in the spring of 536 B.C.E.End of Babylonian Captivity: Spring 536 B.C.E. + the duration of  Worldwide Captivity: 2,483.8 Calendar Years = When the Worldwide Captivity would end: Spring 1948. The Rebirth of Israel: May 14th 1948 On May 14, 1948, the Jewish people proclaimed the independence of Israel and the end of their worldwide captivity at the precise time prophesied by the prophet Ezekiel. On this very day a united Israel took its place as a sovereign, independent state among the nations. 
If 516 BC is taken (destruction of City and Temple of Jerusalem by Babylonians occurred in 586 BC, and after 70 years temple was rebuilt) ,then adding 360 × 7 =2520 year (360 day  year) we will reach spring of 1967 June 5-10 - the 6 Day war, when Israel retook possession of Jerusalem city for first time after 70 AD.


The Bible’s account of the flood confirms describe a five-month period as consisting of precisely 150 days between the 17th day of the second month to the 17th day of the seventh month (5 x 30 days = 150 days). So atleast, 2nd to 7th month had 30 days each unlike our modern Gregorian or Hebrew calendars. Most of the ancient calendars used by grandsons and great grandsons of Noah like Mizraim, Elam, Aram, Javan, Tarshish etc. were also 360 day with 12, 30 day months and adding 5 extra days plus an additional day every 4 years. (accurate upto 365.25 days) Ancient calendars found in Egypt - Mizraim proves this fact. The first day of the year was vernal equinox day of Northern Hemisphere which usually fall on March 19, 20 or 21 every year. 
So if we add 5 or 6 days with the 12th month, giving 35-36 days for the 12th month, such that the 36 day -12th month alternate every 4th or 5th year between usual 35 day 12th month we can create a more perfect calendar than our current Gregorian ( accuracy of only 365.2425 days per year) or other calendars reaching an accuracy of 365.24219 days (same as Solar Year for up to 5 decimal places) every 266 years. First day of the year to be taken as vernal equinox day of March 20 or 21 as in original calendar. The steps for such a calendar is given below.
Step 1- . First day of the year to be taken as vernal equinox day of March 20 or 21 as in original calendar. Then first 11 months with 30 days and 12th month having 35 days - 365 day accuracy.
Step 2- Every 4th year add 1 day to 12th month so that 12th month will have 36 days every 4 years. 365.25 day accuracy
Step 3-  After 5 such 4 year cycle every 5th year add 1 day to 12th month instead of 4th year,so that 12th month will have 36 days every 5 years.[ (4×5)+5=25 year cycle]
Step 4 - After 6 such 4 year cycle every 5th year add 1 day to 12th month instead of the 4th year, so that 12th month will have 36 days every 5 years.[ (4×6)+5=29 year cycle].
Step 5 - Alternate between the 25 and 29 year cycle for 4 times and on 5th time use two 25 year cycle instead of the 29 year cycle. [ (25+29)×4+(2 × 25)= 216+50 = 266 year cycle]- Accuracy of 365.24219 tropical/solar year achieved. Repeat this 266 year cycles.
Since birth of Lord Jesus Christ was on 3rd BC we can modify the Gregorian calendar to that date by subtracting 3 from BC and adding 3 to AD/CE ( instead of AD- Anno Domini meaning the year of the Lord, CE- meaning Christ Era can be used which is easier to understand). Thus date of Re-Creation becomes 4026 BC, birth of Lord Jesus  Christ on 1 CE, and year 2000 AD will become 2003 CE. First day of the year to be taken as vernal equinox day of March 19, 20 or 21 as in original calendar. First coming of Lord Jesus Christ, his crucifixion and resurrection, early Apostolic God's Assembly all were in 16th 266 year cycle in the Christian calendar if date of Re- Creation by God almighty, that is 4026 BC, is taken as the 1st cycle. The current cycle is 23rd cycle which began in the year 1826 CE (1823 AD- Gregorian year) and will end in 2092 CE. Also remember that there is no year between 1 BC and 1 CE ( between 1 BC and 1 AD there was no Year Zero ).
 
Below is 500 year Christian calendar converter with new year day to Gregorian calendar taking solar/vernal equinox day of 2027 CE (2024 AD) as the reference point .  Note that all new year dates in the Christian calendar fall on March 19,20 or 21 (mostly 20), which are also the dates on which solar/vernal equinox occur each year in the northern hemisphere. This is because the Christian calendar is more accurate than the Gregorian calendar with an accuracy of 365.24219  which is same as the tropical/solar year up to 5 decimal places (0.24219). The accuracy of Gregorian calendar is only 365.2425 days per year.

Take vernal/solar equinox day of  2027  CE ( March 20, 2024 AD ) as the reference point to create this calendar. Also take 1st day of Re-Creation by almighty God ( Genesis 1:3-5 ) as 1.1.4026 BC (4029 BC in Gregorian calendar) , making 7.1.4026 BC the Sabbath day on which God rested. God blessed and sanctified this 7th day ( Genesis 2:2,3 ) . God  showed me in the scriptures Genesis 1:14 that months are not calculated using lights in the firmament of heaven -2nd heaven -outer space.  Genesis 1: 14- 16- 14  And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:

15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.

16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. 

Notice that months are not calculated using lights in the firmament of heaven -2nd heaven -outer space, only years and days are calculated, meaning months should be calculated from years and days data that we get from lights in the firmament of heaven. So lunar phases -new moons need not be taken for measuring months.

 

By taking 1.1.4026 BC (4029 BC in Gregorian calendar) as Day 1 of Re-Creation by almighty God ( Genesis 1:3-5 ), the first Sabbath day of 2027 CE will be 3rd day of 1st month - 3.1.2027 CE (23.3.2024 AD- Gregorian Date) which is a saturday
Thus First Fruits day and Resurrection day of Lord Jesus Christ will fall on the same date in 2024 CE- 1.18.2027 CE (7.4.2024 AD- Gregorian Date ) and so also God's Assembly birth day and Pentecost / Harvest day will fall on the same date in 2027CE -  8.3.2027 CE ( 27.5.2024 AD ) as it was in the year of Crucifixion , Resurrection of Lord Jesus Christ and Birth of God's Assembly which was in 35 CE ( 32 AD ). That is on  1.18.35 CE - First Fruits day and Resurrection day of Lord Jesus Christ will fall on the same date  in 35CE ( 32 AD) and 7.3.35 CE-  God's Assembly birth day and Pentecost / Harvest day will fall on the same date in 35 CE ( 32 AD) . Thus this is a confirmation that this is God's Christian calendar.
Thus in this God's Christian calendar Sabbath day will always occur from Friday Sunset to Saturday Sunset in Gregorian calendar and High Sabbath days and other special days ( 7 Annual Feast days of Israel and 2 special days- Passover / Crucifixion day and First Fruits / Resurrection day- Levitivcus 23 Chapter ) will occur on  as follows :-
Crucifixion / Passover Day - March 31st Sunset to April 1 Sunset or April 1 Sunset to April 2 Sunset or April 2 Sunset to April 3 Sunset, when the year begins on March 19,20,21 respectively. ( when the year begins on  the 3 days from March 18th sunset to March 21st Sunset respectively, to be more accurate ).
Week of  Unleavened Bread - April 1st Sunset to April 7 Sunset or April 2 Sunset to April 8 Sunset or April 3 Sunset to April 9 Sunset, when the year begins on March 19,20,21 respectively ( when the year begins on  the 3 days from March 18th sunset to March 21st Sunset respectively, to be more accurate ). In the week of Unleavened Bread first and last days are High Sabbath days.
Resurrection / First Fruits Day - April 4th Sunset to April 5 Sunset or April 5 Sunset to April 6 Sunset or April 6 Sunset to April 7 Sunset, when the year begins on March 19,20,21 respectively. ( when the year begins on  the 3 days from March 18th sunset to March 21st Sunset respectively, to be more accurate ).
Resurrection of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ took place 3 days and 3 nights after he was crucified on the Passover day ( Sign of Jonah ) in 35 CE ( AD 32) . This was also the first fruits day in that year . Actual First Fruits day occurs on the day after the Sabbath in the week of Unleavened Bread, thus First Fruits day can vary according to the Sabbath in the week of Unleavened Bread. But the Resurrection Day of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ took place 3 days and 3 nights after he was crucified on the Passover day in 35 CE ( AD 32) . So the Resurrection Day occurs on 18th of first month every year as Crucifixion / Passover Day occurs on 14th of first month every year.
God's Assembly Birth / Pentecost / Harvest day - May 24th Sunset to May 25 Sunset or May 25 Sunset to May 26 Sunset or May 26 Sunset to May 27 Sunset, when the year begins on March 19,20,21 respectively ( when the year begins on  the 3 days from March 18th sunset to March 21st Sunset respectively, to be more accurate ).
 
Rapture / Trumpet day - September 14th Sunset to September 15 Sunset or September 15 Sunset to September 16 Sunset or September 16 Sunset to September 17 Sunset, when the year begins on March 19,20,21 respectively ( when the year begins on  the 3 days from March 18th sunset to March 21st Sunset respectively, to be more accurate ).
Atonement day - September 23rd Sunset to September 24 Sunset or September 24 Sunset to September 25 Sunset or September 25 Sunset to September 26 Sunset, when the year begins on March 19,20,21 respectively ( when the year begins on  the 3 days from March 18th sunset to March 21st Sunset respectively, to be more accurate ).
Week of Tabernacles -. September 28th Sunset to October 5 Sunset or September 29 Sunset to October 6 Sunset or September 30 Sunset to October 7 Sunset, when the year begins on March 19,20,21 respectively ( when the year begins on  the 3 days from March 18th sunset to March 21st Sunset respectively, to be more accurate ).
New Jerusalem / Last Great day - October 5th Sunset to October 6 Sunset or October 6 Sunset to October 7 Sunset or October 7 Sunset to October 8 Sunset, when the year begins on March 19,20,21 respectively ( when the year begins on  the 3 days from March 18th sunset to March 21st Sunset respectively, to be more accurate ).


Early Christians knew Sabbath, festivals ( 4 spring festivals already fulfilled by crucifixion,resurrection of Jesus and birth of church on day of Pentecost - upper room and 4 fall festivals, all of which are mentioned in Leviticus 23 )  and temple sacrifices ( in the remembrance of ultimate and eternal sacrifice Jesus the Messiah / Christ on the cross at Calvary , Jerusalem some 2000 years ago)  all where shadow of things to come but things that are to come but the body/reality is Christ. 
In the near future when true Christianity will be restored and the temple rebuilt in Jerusalem, and temple sacrifices will be offered in remembrance of Christ's eternal sacrifice on cross at Calvary,near Jerusalem, shedding his sinless precious blood for the remission sins of all mankind, so that all who will accept by faith this salvation through Lord Jesus Christ shall have eternal life.

The temple itself will be called “Prayer house for the people of all nations”. This will happen immediately after the soon coming WW3 and before the rapture.This restored church-the true religion aka the God' Assembly , will have all people living on earth as it’s members.But when Jesus comes back on the day of trumpets (rapture) believers will be taken and hypocrites left behind on earth to face the great tribulation.


                    Feast days of Israel
Few people are aware of the eight festivals God reveals in the Bible. Even fewer are aware that they center around and teach us a great deal about Jesus Christ and His role in God’s plan for all mankind.
“The feasts of the LORD, which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, these are My feasts” (Leviticus 23:2). Sounds impressive, doesn’t it? God Almighty saying in Scripture, “These are My Feasts.”
Yet for most of traditional Christianity, these “feasts of the LORD” are thought to have been kept only by the Jews and are deemed meaningless for Christians. New religious holidays have been substituted that supposedly center on Jesus Christ.
How did all this come to be? What is the true meaning of these “feasts of the LORD”? Do they have anything to do with Jesus Christ, or is their symbolism limited only to long-ago events? If we truly want to find the answers in the manner God instructs us, then we should follow the advice He inspired: “Test all things; hold fast what is good” (1 Thessalonians 5:21).
The Bible gives us a good example of how to examine a belief to see if it is correct. When the apostle Paul traveled to Berea, he taught the Bereans certain things that must have been surprising to them. But they didn’t close their minds or reject them. Instead, they were willing to give them a fair hearing by carefully examining the Scriptures. What was the result? We read in Acts 17:11-12 that these men and women “were more fair-minded than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness, and searched the Scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so. Therefore many of them believed …”
So in examining the feasts of the Bible, will we give them a fair hearing as well? Do the Scriptures reveal whether these feasts teach us important truths about Jesus Christ?

1. The Passover: A Christ-centered feast?
The Passover is the first of God’s annual feast days mentioned in Scripture. It commemorates the greatest event in the people of Israel’s history—their miraculous liberation from Egypt. The second book of the Bible, Exodus, is dedicated to narrating this history. Observant Jews have been celebrating this feast for more than 3,400 years.
But is this feast only to celebrate the Israelites’ departure from Egypt? Does the New Testament have anything to say about the occasion?
When John the Baptist saw Jesus Christ coming to the Jordan River to be baptized, he exclaimed, “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!” (John 1:29).
In the Bible the lamb is a symbol of the Passover because a lamb was slain at the beginning of the Passover and eaten that night. The Israelites knew the blood of the lamb had protected them from the death of their firstborn on that first Passover night they kept in Egypt (Exodus 12:12-13).
In the New Testament, the Gospels record that Christ kept the Passover with His disciples several times. On the night before His death, Jesus knew He was fulfilling the symbolism of the Passover lamb in voluntarily giving His life for the sins of the entire world.
Notice Luke 22:14-16: “When the hour had come, He sat down, and the twelve apostles with Him. Then He said to them, ‘With fervent desire I have desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer; for I say to you, I will no longer eat of it until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.’“
Jesus then instituted the new symbols that represented not the sacrifice of a lamb, but His far greater sacrifice (Holy Communion / Qurbana / Eucharist). In fact  Holy Communion / Qurbana / Eucharist were started under the priestly order of Melchizedek , when Melchizedek blesses Abram by giving bread and wine after his war victory ( Genesis 14:17-20 , Psalms110:4 ). In Hebrews chapter 7 priestly order of Melchizedek is clearly depicted , Hebrews 7 is as follows - 1This Melchizedek was king of Salem and priest of God Most High. He met Abraham returning from the defeat of the kings and blessed him, 2and Abraham gave him a tenth of everything. First, his name means “king of righteousness”; then also, “king of Salem” means “king of peace.” 3Without father or mother, without genealogy, without beginning of days or end of life, like the Son of God he remains a priest forever.
4Just think how great he was: Even the patriarch Abraham gave him a tenth of the plunder! 5Now the law requires the descendants of Levi who become priests to collect a tenth from the people—that is, their brothers—even though their brothers are descended from Abraham. 6This man, however, did not trace his descent from Levi, yet he collected a tenth from Abraham and blessed him who had the promises. 7And without doubt the lesser person is blessed by the greater. 8In the one case, the tenth is collected by men who die; but in the other case, by him who is declared to be living. 9One might even say that Levi, who collects the tenth, paid the tenth through Abraham, 10because when Melchizedek met Abraham, Levi was still in the body of his ancestor.
Jesus Like Melchizedek
11If perfection could have been attained through the Levitical priesthood (for on the basis of it the law was given to the people), why was there still need for another priest to come—one in the order of Melchizedek, not in the order of Aaron? 12For when there is a change of the priesthood, there must also be a change of the law. 13He of whom these things are said belonged to a different tribe, and no one from that tribe has ever served at the altar. 14For it is clear that our Lord descended from Judah, and in regard to that tribe Moses said nothing about priests. 15And what we have said is even more clear if another priest like Melchizedek appears, 16one who has become a priest not on the basis of a regulation as to his ancestry but on the basis of the power of an indestructible life. 17For it is declared:
“You are a priest forever,
in the order of Melchizedek.”[a]
18The former regulation is set aside because it was weak and useless 19(for the law made nothing perfect), and a better hope is introduced, by which we draw near to God.
20And it was not without an oath! Others became priests without any oath, 21but he became a priest with an oath when God said to him:
“The Lord has sworn
and will not change his mind:
‘You are a priest forever.’ “[b] 22Because of this oath, Jesus has become the guarantee of a better covenant.
23Now there have been many of those priests, since death prevented them from continuing in office; 24but because Jesus lives forever, he has a permanent priesthood. 25Therefore he is able to save completely[c] those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them.
26Such a high priest meets our need—one who is holy, blameless, pure, set apart from sinners, exalted above the heavens. 27Unlike the other high priests, he does not need to offer sacrifices day after day, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people. He sacrificed for their sins once for all when he offered himself. 28For the law appoints as high priests men who are weak; but the oath, which came after the law, appointed the Son, who has been made perfect forever.
The Passover symbols would now represent Christ’s complete sacrifice—the unleavened bread representing His sinless body that was beaten for us, and a sip of wine signifying the lifeblood He would shed to wash away our sins.
From then on, this feast took on a much greater new meaning to the Church. Instead of being abolished, this feast now revealed its true, ultimate meaning. The disciples now realized the Passover lamb was only the physical forerunner of that perfect sacrifice which was Jesus Christ. Now they would keep this feast with far greater significance and comprehension.
Paul explains the Christian Passover
Some 25 years after Christ’s death, the apostle Paul instructed the Corinthian congregation—composed of believing Jews and gentiles alike—about the Passover: “Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us” (1 Corinthians 5:7).
Paul understood this ancient feast of the Passover had now revealed its true meaning with Christ’s sacrifice. It was part of God’s plan for all of mankind that Jesus would come and sacrifice Himself for the sins of the world—and the Passover anticipated it.
So, far from being obsolete, the Passover was revealed to have a vastly important meaning for Christians, with Jesus Christ being at its very center.
The apostle Paul explained this new understanding of the Passover to the Corinthian brethren when he instructed them on how to observe it: “For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed [Passover night] took bread; and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, ‘Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me.’
“In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, ‘This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.’ For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death till He comes” (1 Corinthians 11:23-26).
So in the New Testament, the Passover becomes an annual reminder and symbol of Christ’s sacrifice for all of us.
God’s feasts reveal the future
The apostle Paul clearly understood that these biblical feasts were harbingers of what was to come in God’s master plan of salvation. In a passage frequently misunderstood by many, Paul shows these feasts of the Lord were “shadows” of things to come—not of things that have already happened.
He warned the brethren not to be intimidated by some who were questioning their manner of keeping God’s feasts, as well as the Sabbaths, new moons, and eating and drinking. He said, “So let no one judge [criticize or condemn] you in food or in drink, or regarding a festival or a new moon or sabbaths, which are a shadow of things to come . . . Let no one cheat you of your reward …” ( Colossians 2:16-18).
Paul was combating a group of false teachers who were introducing several strange doctrines, including worshiping angels (verse 18) and abstaining from wholesome food and drink (verse 21). He told the brethren to ignore them and continue observing what he had taught (and he certainly taught keeping the Passover, as we have seen). Regrettably, the Colossian brethren had been confused by these false intruders who tried to judge Colossian brethren as said in Colossians 2:16-21 16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holy day, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:

17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.

 

18 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,

19 And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.

20 Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances,

21 (Touch not; taste not; handle not;

So Paul mentions how important they are, as foreshadowing coming events in God’s plan for mankind. These events have not been completely accomplished so far, and many are still in the future.
Even the Passover’s symbolism was not completely fulfilled with Christ’s sacrificial death. Jesus Himself said He will again take the Passover with all the believers in God’s Kingdom (Mark 14:24-25; Luke 22:15-16)—an act that represents the ultimate triumph of His sacrifice when all believers join Him in His Kingdom.
2. The Days of Unleavened Bread: Is Christ at the center?
What about the Days of Unleavened Bread? Are they obsolete, solely an Old Testament symbol? Or are they also glorious shadows of things to come?
In the Old Testament, the Days of Unleavened Bread were understood to be a memorial of what occurred after the Passover night, when all the Egyptian firstborn died.
The next morning the Israelites packed their belongings and traveled to a nearby gathering place, ready for departure. That evening, they left Egypt by night. “It is a night of solemn observance to the LORD for bringing them out of the land of Egypt” (Exodus 12:42).
Before that evening, one last thing occurred: “And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough which they had brought out of Egypt; for it was not leavened, because they were driven out of Egypt and could not wait, nor had they prepared provisions for themselves” (verse 39).
This feast of the Lord is clearly spelled out in Leviticus 23:6: “And on the fifteenth day of the same month [as Passover] is the Feast of Unleavened Bread to the LORD; seven days you must eat unleavened bread.”
What does this feast have to do with Christ? What does it teach us about Him?
Unleavened bread—bread made without leaven—is mentioned in the Bible as something pure and unpolluted. All the grain sacrifices to be burned were to be made without leaven. “No grain offering which you bring to the LORD shall be made with leaven, for you shall burn no leaven nor any honey in any offering to the LORD made by fire” (Leviticus 2:11).
In the New Testament, the apostle Paul explains the spiritual symbolism of unleavened bread. Rebuking the Church members in Corinth for their acceptance of sin, he tells them: “Your glorying is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump? Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us” (1 Corinthians 5:6-7).
Yes, as Paul states, it is the sacrifice of Jesus Christ that removes our sins, and so we become “unleavened” in a spiritual sense. So, again, Jesus Christ is the focus of this feast of the Lord. The shadow of this feast points to what Jesus would do for all of us in cleansing us of sin and helping us to live sin-free lives.
Paul told the Corinthian brethren that they should continue to keep this feast that followed the Passover. “Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth” (verse 8).
We see, then, that the spiritual meaning of the Days of Unleavened Bread was revealed. Its deeper significance wasn’t ultimately found in what had occurred in the Old Testament, but in Jesus Christ, the sinless one, who purged our sins and gave us a chance to be spiritually “unleavened” before God. As the apostle Jude noted, Jesus “is able to keep you from stumbling, and to present you faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy” (Jude 24).
So Jesus Christ is at the center of this second feast of the Lord, too. He makes it possible for us to be spiritually “unleavened” before God.

3. First Fruits: Is Christ at the center of this feast?

 Resurrection  of our Lord Jesus Christ , 3 days and 3 nights after his death by crucifixion is represented by the first fruits day - on this day Lord Jesus Christ presented himself before his disciples after his resurrection.
1 Corinthians 15:20-23 gives the scriptural fulfillment of festival of first fruits as our resurrected Lord Jesus Christ:-

  20But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep. 21 For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man. 22 For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive. 23 But each in turn: Christ, the first fruits; then, when he comes, those who belong to him.

 Christ fulfilled the feast of first fruits by being the first fruits of the resurrection. Others in the Bible (such as Lazarus and Jairus' daughter) had been raised from the dead prior to Christ's resurrection but they were resurrected back into their old bodies which would eventually die again. Jesus was the first to be raised into a new resurrection body, never to die again! So He is the 'sheaf', the first of the harvest, that is waved before the Lord in celebration and with thanksgiving.
And just as the sheaf was waved to represent the entire harvest to the left and the right, so the resurrection of Jesus was not just for Himself. He represented the many that 'shall come from the east and the west' (Matthew 8:11) to faith in Him and be raised from the dead as well! As the offerings that were made on the feast of firstfruits were a sweet savor to God2, how much greater was the sweetness on the day Jesus rose from the dead? Corresponding to the fact that the crop was not kosher until the firstfruits were waved before God, so it took the resurrection of the Jesus to make us acceptable to God - Romans 4:25 'He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.' Or, as Paul said: 1 Corinthians 15:17 'And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins.'  


But thank God that death could not hold Him down! And what of the day that this was to happen? We read above that this wave offering before the Lord of the firstfruits was to occur 'the day after the Sabbath'. This is the first day of the week - The day that Jesus rose from the dead!
4. Pentecost: Is Christ at the center of this feast?
In the Old Testament, the Feast of Pentecost is called the Feast of Weeks (Exodus 34:22). This is because Leviticus 23:15-16 mentions counting seven weeks (or Sabbaths) or “fifty days” from the day the wave sheaf was offered during the Days of Unleavened Bread. Thus the feast acquired the name of “fiftieth,” which is what Pentecost means in the Greek language of the New Testament.
In the New Testament, 50 days after Christ had been resurrected, the first Christians were celebrating Pentecost, one of the feasts of the Lord. And, as recorded in Acts 2, what a day that was! On it they received the Holy Spirit from God. Suddenly the Old Testament Feast of Weeks had taken on a new meaning for them. The shadow of this feast had now become a reality! Pentecost would become the God's assemblies anniversary of the receiving of God’s Spirit and thus the birth/ start of God's Assembly.
Jesus Christ revealed the significance of this feast by sending the Holy Spirit to His brethren in the faith. He had told them, “Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high” (Luke 24:49; compare John 16:7).
God’s Spirit plays a crucial role in the life of Christians today as it did then. When a person receives God’s Spirit upon repentance and baptism, that Spirit begins a process of spiritual transformation in the person’s life, a transformation the Bible calls conversion.
Through this process, we shed our own way of thinking and living and allow Jesus Christ’s attitude and way of life to guide everything we do. Paul described this life-transforming change in Galatians 2:20:
“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me” (King James Version).
Thus we see that Jesus is at the center of the Feast of Pentecost as well. Yet the ultimate fulfillment will only be realized after He returns to earth to establish God’s Kingdom, when all will have access to God’s Spirit. So this feast should still be kept as a memorial and a shadow until its purpose is completely accomplished.


5. The Feast of Trumpets: Is this a Christ-centered feast?
 
The next biblical feast is referred to in the Bible as the Feast of Trumpets. It is “a holy convocation commemorated with trumpet blasts” (Leviticus 23:24, NRSV). God said when the trumpets were blown, “you will be remembered before the LORD your God, and you will be saved from your enemies” (Numbers 10:9).
Is the Feast of Trumpets also a shadow of Jesus Christ and His role in things to come?

Often in the New Testament the sound of trumpets is tied to Christ’s coming in mid-heavens to take his bride God"s Assembly before the great tribulation of 7 years - Pre tribulation Rapture. Notice Paul’s description of the resurrection of the dead at the time a great trumpet announces Christ’s return: “Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed—in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed” (1 Corinthians 15:51-52).
We find this again described in 1 Thessalonians 4:16: “For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.” So Pre-Tribulation  Rapture of God's Assembly is represented by the Trumpet feast. Trumpet of Archangel will be sounded at the rapture -   1 Thessalonians 4:13-17, 2 Thessalonians 2:3-7, 1Corinthians 15:51-58.
So Christ will ultimately fulfill the symbolism behind the Feast of Trumpets. He is the center of this foreshadowing feast too.
But until the sound of the trumpet is heard, this feast is still pointing to the future, and its meaning is still to be fulfilled—with Jesus at its center.
Also some consider the Feast of Trumpets Day in 1 CE ( 3 BC ) to be the birth date of Lord Jesus Christ from astronomical data which matches the scripture account of birth date of Lord Jesus Christ in Revelation 12:1-2, The sign of the women that the Bible is referring to here is to the constellation Virgo. Revelation 12 further states that this woman was “clothed with the sun” another celestial body. The sun, as it appears to travel through the ecliptic each year, enters into the mid-body between the neck and the knees of the constellation Virgo, clothing her with the sun for approximately a 21 day period during any given year. In the year 3 B.C. which we later show by other celestial events in the heavens to be the year of the birth of Jesus Christ, the sun was in this position from August 27th through September 15th. Revelation also declares that “the moon was under her feet.” With these two specific details, they claim to pinpoint the birth of Christ very precisely. In 3 B.C. the sun and the moon in Virgo occurred on only one day and that was September 11. The configuration of the sun and the moon was visible in Israel on September 11, 3 B.C., between 6:18pm and 7:39pm. So they claim Jesus Christ was born on September 11, 3 B.C sometime in that eighty-one minute span of time between 6:18pm and 7:39pm. But the Julian calendar used by them has an error of 3 days behind and Hebrew day for Trumpet feast day is 5 days behind. Thus birth of Lord Jesus Christ occurred 8 days prior to feast of Trumpets and on feast of Trumpets Lord Jesus Christ was circumcised and named as Jesus- Luke 2 :21.
Exactly one month before (on August 12) the world would have witnessed the close conjunction of Jupiter and Venus  when they were only .07 degrees from one another when they appeared as morning stars on the eastern horizon. This was a very close union.  And, after that on September 14, Jupiter - the King planet and Regulus -the King star came to their first of three conjunctions in this extraordinary year. Then, over an eight month period, Jupiter made its “crowning effect” over the King star Regulus. These celestial events might have guided the wise men from East described in Matthew 2:1-12.
 Notice that first conjunction of Jupiter with Venus  occurred about a month before birth of Lord Jesus Christ and that might be when they first saw the star of King of Jews / Christ - Matthew 2:2-6. And after they left Herod's palace the star again guided them till the house in Bethlehem where Jesus was ( Matthew 2:9-12 )  So this might have been the second conjunction of Jupiter with Regulus which God used supernaturally to guide the wise men till the house in Bethlehem where Jesus was. 
Also notice that this was not in the manger that Jesus was placed on the night in which he was born , when shepherds came to visit him as Angels instructed them ( Luke 2: 5-20 ), but a house in Bethlehem. At that time inns used to be places of not just stay but also giving care to the sick,wounded (Parable of Good Samaritan by Lord Jesus Christ in Luke 10: 34,35), pregnant and because  there was no place in the inn, Lord Jesus Christ was placed in manger ( Luke 2:7,16 ). So after his birth on the manger Lord Jesus Christ was soon transferred to a house in Bethlehem where the wise men from East came to visit and worship him with gifts probably 2-3 days after the birth of Lord Jesus Christ on September 14 , 3 BC on the second conjunction of Jupiter with Regulus.
Also note that Angels announced Birth of Lord Jesus Christ to Shepherds ( Luke 2:8-14 ) on the same night that  Lord Jesus Christ was born and 8 days after his birth, on the day of Trumpets he was circumcised and named as Jesus- Yahweh Shuah- Yahshuah meaning God Lord is Saviour thus announcing the birth of saviour to all world - Luke 2:21 ,likewise in the rapture of God's Assembly the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout of command in sound of Archangel and trumpet of God- 1 Thessalonians 14:16 - For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God.
6. The Day of Atonement: Is Christ involved in its meaning?
Perhaps the most unusual of the biblical feasts is the Day of Atonement. In Old Testament times, it included an elaborate ritual described in Leviticus 16. The high priest was to present two male goats, the first of which was sacrificed for the nation’s sins (verse 15). Then, after the sins of the nation were symbolically placed on the other goat, it was expelled into the desert to a life of wandering (verses 21-22).
What does the Day of Atonement reveal about Jesus Christ’s roles? Is He also at the center of this feast?

The direct outworking of purification of mankind by God through his divine judgement and wrath upon ungodly people (2nd half of the 7 year delusion and wrath period) and Second coming of Lord Jesus Christ with 10,000's of saints and throwing alive Antichrist / Beast and False Prophet into lake of fire and sulfur and those who followed them and killing those with them with the sword that comes out of the mouth of Word of God - Lord Jesus Christ and defeat of Satan and chaining Satan and throwing him and locking him in Abyss for 1000 years as revealed in Revelation 19:11- 20:3  is represented by Atonement day.
The Bible is full of rich symbolism, and the New Testament Church quickly realized Christ in His first coming was at the center of the feasts of the Lord. Just as He was described as being “our Passover” and “the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world” (Revelation 13:8), so they came to understand that He was at the center of the Day of Atonement. How? He fulfilled the role of the male goat slain for the sins of Israel and carried outside the camp (Leviticus 16:27).
We read in Hebrews 13 about the Day of Atonement, and Christ being symbolic of the male goat and other animals slain on that day as sin offerings. “For the bodies of those animals, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned outside the camp. Therefore Jesus also, that He might sanctify the people with His own blood, suffered outside the gate [of the city of Jerusalem]” (verses 11-12).


Atonement means purification from  sins, which occurred when Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins, shedding his precious sinless blood on the cross at Calvary, Jerusalem some 2000 years ago, so that all who will repent of their sins and trusts in Lord Jesus Christ will have eternal life. The outworking of this purification of mankind from sins shall be directly started by the great wrath Judgement of God that will hit all ungodly people in the 2nd half of 7 year tribulation period. Second coming of Lord Jesus Christ with 10,000's of saints and throwing alive Antichrist / Beast and False Prophet into lake of fire and sulfur and those who followed them and killing those with them with the sword that comes out of the mouth of Word of God - Lord Jesus Christ and defeat of Satan and chaining Satan and throwing him and locking him in Abyss for 1000 years as revealed in Revelation 19:11- 20:3  is represented by Atonement day. 
Thus this direct outworking of purification of mankind by God through his divine judgement and wrath upon ungodly people and Satan who deceived them is represented by the Atonement day.
Not only does the Day of Atonement depict Christ’s sacrifice for sin and a true spiritual reconciling of the people with God, but Christ is directly involved in the symbolism of the other male goat that was cast out into the desert by a strong man (Leviticus 16:21).
The second goat, over which the sins of the Israelites were confessed, represented the instigator of those sins—none other than Satan the devil.
At Christ’s second coming, He will instruct a powerful angel to bind Satan and cast him into a place of restraint for 1,000 years, exiling him from mankind just as the live goat was exiled from the Israelite camp on the Day of Atonement. “Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, having the key to the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. He laid hold of the dragon, that serpent of old, who is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years” (Revelation 20:1-2). 

7. The Feast of Tabernacles: How is Christ the center of this feast?
Next is the sixth biblical feast, the Feast of Tabernacles. In the Old Testament, it was kept to remind the Israelites of all of God’s miraculous interventions during the 40-year period in the wilderness. “All who are native Israelites shall dwell in booths, that your generations may know that I made the children of Israel dwell in booths when I brought them out of the land of Egypt” (Leviticus 23:42-43).
What does the Feast of Tabernacles have to do with Jesus Christ? Jesus is recorded to have kept this feast in John 7:2-36. The symbol of the tabernacle in the New Testament is rich with meaning.
During Christ’s earthly ministry, the apostle John mentions that “the Word became flesh and dwelt among us” (John 1:14). The Greek term for “dwelt” here actually means that He “tabernacled” among us. Just as Jesus Christ as the Creator God of the Old Testament (John 1:1-3, 10; Hebrews 1:2; Colossians 1:16) “tabernacled” with the Israelites in the wilderness, He now did so with His people in His physical life many centuries later.
The apostle Paul says that the Israelites in the wilderness all “drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ” (1 Corinthians 10:4, New International Version).
At Christ’s second coming, He will again “tabernacle” with those who are saved. He will dwell with His people for a thousand years, and this 1,000-year rule of Jesus Christ over the earth is the ultimate fulfillment of this feast. “Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with Him a thousand years” (Revelation 20:6). In Zechariah 14 :16-19 we see that all nations on earth will have to come to Jerusalem for worshiping  Lord Jesus Christ -Yahweh Shuah the Messiah (Yahshuah The Messiah) and  for feast of Tabernacles during the global millennial rule of Lord Jesus Christ from Jerusalem. If any nation doesn't come for worshiping God and attending festival of Tabernacles in Jerusalem, they will not have rain as punishment.
So Christ is definitely at the center of this feast too—as the ruler who “tabernacles” with His people for a thousand years.
8. The Last Great Day- Final Judgement by God and the  are New Eternity of New Jerusalem, New Heaven and New Earth are represented by the Last Great Day feast which comes after 7 day tabernacle feast - Revelation 20:11- 22:21.
The Feast of Tabernacles lasted seven days. Then, on the eighth day, there followed another, separate feast day, the last of the biblical feasts (Leviticus 23:36). What does this day have to do with Jesus Christ?
In John 7, an account of Jesus Christ’s last Feast of Tabernacles on earth, we find Jesus declaring the significance of its conclusion. “On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, ‘If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water” (John 7:37-38).
He was talking about the God’s church which began with the anointing of Holy Spirit at the Harvest/Pentecost festival some 2000 years ago and will end when Lord Jesus Christ comes to take back his church-rapture/1st resurrection as signified by feast of trumpets.
In Revelation 22:17 Lord Jesus Christ says- And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely. This is the river of life in the eternal New Jerusalem city and whoever washes himself by the sinless blood of Lord Jesus Christ which was shed for the remission of sins of all mankind on the cross at Calvary some Jerusalem some 2000 years ago by putting his trust / faith in Lord Jesus Christ will have access to the tree of life and river of life mentioned in Revelation 22:1-2 and 14-17 which is the real meaning of New Jerusalem / Last Great Day.
During Christ’s 1,000-year reign, all of mankind will be offered God’s Spirit. And beyond that, the Bible reveals there will come a future time when Christ will judge according to their works, those who rise up in  resurrection of the dead from all past ages. In Revelation 20, we read what happens after the Millennium (pictured by the Feast of Tabernacles) is completed:
“Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away … And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books” (Revelation 20:11-12).
This period is also called the White Throne Judgment, and it is Christ who has been appointed to judge all of mankind (John 5:26-27; Romans 14:10). 
So Christ will also carry out the central role of this final feast, that of carrying out the final judgement of all those who were not included in the rapture aka first ressurection.They will be judged according to their works and will be thrown to eternal lake of fire and sulfur,if their names are not written in the book of life-Revelations20:11-15. After  that the New Eternity of New Jerusalem, New Heaven and New Earth also is represented by the Last Great Day feast which comes after 7 day tabernacle feast. - Revelation 21,22 chapters.
Thus, the eight feasts of the Lord are “a shadow of things to come,” and Jesus Christ is at the center of all of them. Yet He has not brought them to ultimate fulfillment; that will only occur in the coming Kingdom of God.
Yes, Christ is our Passover, He is the Unleavened Bread that purifies us, the Giver of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, the coming King whose arrival is announced by the blast of the trumpets, the one who banishes Satan for a thousand years, and who tabernacles with man as King of kings. Finally, He is to judge all mankind not included in first resurrection / rapture according to their works,before the New Heavens,New earth and New Jerusalem for all eternity. Thus, these holy feasts  remind us of the central role Jesus Christ has in carrying out in the eternal salvation plan of God.

For God's Assembly in new testament everyday is a victory festival of Lord Jesus Christ - 
Colossians 2:8-23 (RKJNT)  Beware, lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, which depend on the traditions of men and the rudiments of the world, and not on Christ.
For in him all the fulness of Deity dwells in bodily form.
And you are complete in him, who is the head of all rule and authority.
In him also you were circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:
Having been buried with him in baptism, you have also risen with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.
And you, being dead in your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh, he has made alive together with him, having forgiven us all transgressions;
Cancelling the bond of debt, with its legal decrees against us, which was contrary to us, and taking it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
And having disarmed rulers and authorities, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
Therefore, let no man judge you in matters of food, or drink, or regarding a festival, or a new moon, or a sabbath day:
Which are a shadow of things to come; but the reality belongs to Christ.
Let no man defraud you of your reward, delighting in self-abasement and the worship of angels, taking his stand on visions, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
And not holding fast to the Head, from whom all the body, supported and knit together by its joints and ligaments, grows with a growth that is from God.
Therefore, if you are dead with Christ to the elementary principles of the world, why, as though still living in the world, do you submit to such ordinances as,
Do not touch; do not taste; do not handle?
These all refer to things which perish with use; and are based on the commandments and doctrines of men.
These things indeed have an appearance of wisdom with their self-imposed worship, and self-abasement, and severity to the body; but are of no value in restraining the indulgence of the flesh.

So according to Collosians 2:15,16 Christ has obtained the victory  by - "Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;

 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:

 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ."

 So everyday is like victory festival of Lord Jesus Christ for all Christians. Since we have Lord Jesus Christ who is the body , nobody needs to judge us in keeping these festivals , shabbath etc. which are actually shadow of things to come which have and will be fulfilled in Lord Jesus Christ as we have seen in this study.

  So we need to understand setting rules of men are mere vainity  as clearly said in Collosians 2:20-23 - Therefore, if you are dead with Christ to the elementary principles of the world, why, as though still living in the world, do you submit to such ordinances as,

 Do not touch; do not taste; do not handle?

 These all refer to things which perish with use; and are based on the commandments and doctrines of men.

 These things indeed have an appearance of wisdom with their self-imposed worship, and self-abasement, and severity to the body; but are of no value in restraining the indulgence of the flesh.
