FEAST of the LORD

I do believe the FINAL FULFILLMENT of END-TIMES will be surrounded by the FEAST OF THE LORD:

LEVITICUS 23: 4 These are the FEAST of the LORD!!!!!! 

You will have to decide:

Are they a in the SPIRIT OF BONDAGE?
or
The SPIRIT OF LIBERTY?

SEPT 28: 30 Feast of Trumpets

Oct 7th is YOM KIPPUR, DAY of ATONEMENT.

Oct 12th -19  Feast of Tabernacles 




So what can we learn about END TIMES based on the FEAST?


Yom Kippur: Also known as the "Day of Atonement" and considered the most sacred day in the Jewish calendar by observant Jews.  In a manner similar to Christians and church attendance for Easter, even many Jewish people who are not deeply religious will find their way to Temple on this very special day. 


DAY OF ATONEMENT:

Yom Kippur (Hebrew: יוֹם כִּפּוּר or יום הכיפורים‎, IPA: [ˈjom kiˈpur]), Also known as Day of Atonement, is the holiest and most solemn day of the year for the Jews. Its central themes are atonement and repentance. Jews traditionally observe this holy day with a 25-hour period of fasting and intensive prayer, often spending most of the day in synagogue services. Yom Kippur completes the annual period known in Judaism as the High Holy Days or Yamim Nora'im ("Days of Awe").

JERUSALEM, Israel - Thursday marks Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the Jewish year. It also holds special significance for Christians.
Jews in Israel and around the world are preparing for this holy day, also known as the Day of Atonement.
The way Jews observe Yom Kippur here in Israel is unlike any other nation on earth. By law, television and radio broadcasts are forbidden. The airports are shut down. There's no public transportation. Businesses are closed and virtually no one drives a car.
"When the Day of Atonement comes the atmosphere in Jerusalem changes completely," said Joseph Shulam, founder of Netivyah Ministries.
"Everything is extremely somber and quiet. There is no transportation. Nothing is open and the synagogues are full. People are truly trying to understand their sins," he said.
Yom Kippur is the climax of the 10 Days of Awe, which began with Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. Yom Kippur is marked by repentance and confession.
"I think we would do well to do what the Jewish people do on that day, to take a day aside to just search our hearts before God and let the Holy Spirit really look inside us and not doing our own introspection but being open to His inspection," said Rick Ridings with Nations Standing with Israel.
The Old Testament documents how the High Priest entered the Holy of Holies and offered a sacrifice for the sins of the people for the year. The book of Leviticus says ". on this day atonement will be made for you, to cleanse you." (Leviticus 16:30)
Many Christians see a wonderful picture of Jesus on this day and other feasts of the Lord celebrated in the Old Testament.
In the New Testament, the book of Hebrews says, "He entered the most holy place once for all by His own blood, having obtained eternal redemption." (Hebrews 9:12)
"They are all pictures of Jesus, Yeshua, in an amazing way and of course a very powerful picture of atonement is that He Himself is our atonement," Ridings said.

The DAY OF ATONEMENT:


The Day of Atonement is a day of fasting and self denial.  Atonement means covering which Jesus provided when He shed His blood on the cross as a covering for sin.  His blood is the atonement for sin, so we will not be condemned at the Judgment Seat. 

Synonyms for the Day of Atonement are the Day of Judgment, the Day of Redemption, the Day of the Lord and the Day of Reckoning.
The Day of Atonement follows the day of Trumpets. The fulfillment of the festival of Ingathering follows the sounding of the Last Trumpet.
·        Trumpets          -            Harvest Gathering
·        Atonement        -           Judgment Seat of Christ
·        Tabernacles      -           Christ's eternal presence and reign
