2020-2021 Christian Israel Holy Feast Days

For the 2021 & 2022 Feast Days, please see this page.

Overview                             

Our Father in Heaven created the biblical feast days in preparation for Jesus’ first advent and the Second Advent that is yet to come.   When Jesus was here his birth advents and his crucifixion events did fulfill Feast Day laws documented by Moses and that is how the Israelites knew that it was their kinsman redeemer who had come for them.  The Israelites were waiting for Jesus to come and after his death on Passover they knew it was him who had fulfilled the feast day laws as stated.

“Do not think that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets. I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. For amen I say unto you, till heaven and earth pass, one jot, or one tittle shall not pass of the law, till all be fulfilled. He therefore that shall break one of these least commandments, and shall so teach men, shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven. But he that shall do and teach, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.”  DR Mat 5:17-19

Jesus tells us clearly above that the laws of Moses are in effect until the kingdom of heaven comes.  Since we are not living in the kingdom of heaven now we know the laws still must be followed.  Jesus stated he came to fulfill the law; however, nowhere does it state that he fulfilled all the laws of Moses.  Jesus only fulfilled the laws that he planned to fulfill during the first advent and will fulfill the rest of the Feast Day laws when he returns.    

The Fall Feast Days are not fulfilled.  In the verses below Jesus is stating part of what will happen at the Second Advent when he comes to fulfill the Fall Feast Days.  During the Day of Atonement and Feast of Tabernacles goats are to be completely burnt as a sin offering according to law and the below verses telling us that Jesus and his angels will fulfill these laws when he returns.

 “And when the Son of man shall come in his majesty, and all the angels with him, then shall he sit upon the seat of his majesty. And all nations shall be gathered together before him, and he shall separate them one from another, as the shepherd separateth the sheep from the goats: And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on his left. Then shall the king say to them that shall be on his right hand: Come, ye blessed of my Father, possess you the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.”  DR Mat 25:31-34

“Then he shall say to them also that shall be on his left hand: Depart from me, you cursed, into everlasting fire which was prepared for the devil and his angels.” DR Mat 25:41

Our Father in Heaven’s Feast Days

Our Father in Heaven made appointments with us to keep the feast days.  We are to keep these feast days as a sign of being HIS people plus they were put in place to ensure that HIS people would be ready for Jesus’ return.  Many of the feast days should still be considered prophecy since they are yet to come. Only by studying and doing HIS feast days will you be ready and not be miss-lead by an anti-Christ person.   Most of these feast state they are to be observed perpetually meaning for ever. Here are some of the verses where HE states these feasts are perpetual:

“And ye shall keep this commandment, for on this day will I bring out your force out of the land of Egypt; and ye shall make this day a perpetual ordinance for you throughout your generations.” Exo 12:17 

“And ye shall not eat bread, or the new parched corn, until this same day, until ye offer the sacrifices to your God: it is a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings.” Lev 23:14   

“And ye shall call this day a convocation: it shall be holy to you; ye shall do no servile work on it: it is a perpetual ordinance throughout your generations in all your habitations.” Lev 23:21 

“Ye shall do no manner of work: it is a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your habitations.” Lev 23:31 

“It is a perpetual statute for your generations: in the seventh month ye shall keep it.” Lev 23:41 

 The feast day laws are not an invitation to attend; they are a law that all men especially must attend for the Unleavened bread feast, the Feast of Weeks, and the Feast of Tabernacles.  These three feasts are not to be celebrated at home.

“Three times in the year shall every male of thine appear before the Lord the God of Israel.” Exo 34:23 

“Three times in the year shall all thy males appear before the Lord thy God in the place which the Lord shall choose in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles: thou shalt not appear before the Lord thy God empty.” Deu 16:16 

The feast days in the laws of Moses are Christian Israelite Holy Feat Days that must be celebrated as the new Christ believing Apostles from the tribe of Benjamin did at the appointed times that our Father in Heaven declared.  The book ‘Writings of Falvius Josephus’ also records that the tribes did celebrate the feast day after Jesus’ crucifixion.   

Sabbath Rest Day

The Sabbath rest day is a weekly holy day that occurs every Saturday.  One of the signs of being his chosen people is following the Sabbath Day laws.  These links provide more information.

Christian Israelite Festivals

Below are the feast days required of all Christian Israelites by the laws of Moses plus the new feast days that started as a result of Jesus’ life and crucifixion.  The feasts or festivals that started after Jesus was crucified are not in our bibles since these traditions were establish after the New Testament was written.  These festivals are to honor what Jesus did for us and should be considered Christian even though they are not in our bibles.  They were started to honor Jesus Christ and the activities performed on these days should be conducted in a biblical matter. I plan to honor all of them at minimum with prayer.  Those with families at home might want to observe with a special family dinner and prayer. 

The feasts in red below are feast required by our Father in Heaven as documented in the laws of Moses.  They all start at sunrise except for Passover and the Day of Atonement; scriptures state these two feast start in the evening.

Spring Feast Days

Spring Christian Feast Days (The day starts at dawn.) Red = Required by the laws of Moses	Biblical Date	Correct Date 2020	History & Notes
1st Day of the Month Celebration Observe the month of New Corn (Deu 16:1, Num 28:11) New Year’s Day Spring Festival Start of Religious & Agricultural Year The celebration of Noah starting to  build the ark & 2 years later the earth was visible.  (Jub 6) This is also the day that yearly Priestly Consecration began for 8 days. (Exo 29, Lev 8)	Abib 1	March 18th	In 1752, the first day of the New Year changed to January 1st plus all of the dates on our calendar were shifted by 11 days. This aligned the New Year’s day observance with the Feast of the Circumcision of Christ, based on the false belief that Jesus was born on December 25th. Information about New Years, Equinoxes & Passover dates. In 3238 BC, Noah instituted the Spring, Summer, Fall & Winter Festivals. It was part of the covenant made with our Father on Pentecost.  See this page to learn more about Noah's Festivals.
Jesus’ Last Supper  Dinner served with leavened bread & wine. (Mat 26:20)	Abib 13	March 30th	Today this feast is traditionally called “The Last Supper” Information about the Last Supper & Passover Peter’s three denials on the Last Supper
Passover Feast –meal at evening Dinner served with unleavened bread & bitter herbs.  Remove leaven from your home. (Exo 12:6-11 & 12:50, Num 9:3, Deu 16:6) The 1st born of Egypt killed and the 1st born of Israel was saved. (Exo 12:29) Jesus crucified & died about 3:00pm. (Mat 27:45, John 19:14) Jesus in tomb just before the dawn of Abib 15 (Luke 23:54)	Abib 14	March 31st	During 100s AD, Rome started enforcing the date of observance be based on a new moon calculation.  Lots of Christians were killed for celebrating Passover on the correct date.  The Passover Feast was stopped and the Easter observance was started instead.  Good Friday services are the replacement services for Passover; however they are never held three days before Easter as it should be since Jesus was in the tomb 3 day and 3 nights. (Luke 24:46) About the Passover Feast. Information about the Last Supper & Passover The Great Pyramid of Giza records Jesus’ birth, baptism, and death. The state of Florida celebrates Passover on about the correct date each year. Pascua means Passover.
Unleavened Bread Feast Dedication & Redemption of the 1st born (Exo 12:15-16, Exo 13:2, Deu 16:3) Left bondage in Egypt on Abib 15 (Exo 12) Passed thru the Red Sea on Abib 21	Abib 15 – Abib 21	April 1st - April 7th	Unleavened Bread & Redemption of the First Born Unleavened Bread, Redemption, & First Fruits Why we do Spring Cleaning Unleavened bread recipes: Hoe Cakes Barley Unleavened Bread Whole Wheat Unleavened Bread
Jesus’ Resurrection Day was during the Feast of Unleavened bread. (Luke 24:1, Mat 28:1, John 20:1)	Abib 18	April 4th	This is a Sabbath day; therefore a day of rest.  I’m sure that is why services were never on this day.
Mary finds Jesus’ tomb empty & Jesus appears to Mary & the Apostles. (Mat 28, John 20:1)	Abib 19	April 5th	Easter Sunday services are to remember that Jesus was resurrected. Easter is celebrated in 100 countries.   I believe that Easter received this name because when Jesus returns he will come from the east.  (Mat 24:27)  The word Easter means the direction eastern. On the day of his resurrection they were thinking about HIS return and this is why traditional churches are arranged where the audience is face towards the east.
Eat No Grain  (Lev 23:14)	Abib 22 – Abib 25	April 8th- April 11th	I believe this time period of eating Unleavened Bread and then no grain is actually a natural detox process for your body. Therefore you are physically and spiritually removing impurities or leaven from your soul. (See Luke 12:1 regarding the leaven of the Pharisees.)
First Fruits (Wave Sheaf)  Feast Jesus became High Priest (Lev 23:10, Luke 9:28, Num 6) This was a offering performed at Sunday services. (Starts countdown to the Feast of Weeks)	Abib 26	April 12th	Unleavened Bread, Redemption, & First Fruits First Fruits Offerings and Prophecy The First Fruits & determining the correct date of the Feast of Weeks
1st Day of the Month Celebration (Num 28:11)	2nd Month, 1st Day	Apr 17th
Passover Feast - Make-up Day (Num 9:10-11)	2nd Month, 14th day	Apr 30th	This only applies if you were not able to observe the Passover on the correct death due to a death in the family or because you are traveling.  This is why there is mention of the Apostles or Jesus’ family having a Passover dinner after Jesus died that day; it was forbidden for them to have that Passover since Jesus had died.
Jesus’ Ascension Day (Luke 24:51) Noah: flood gates open & water rises. (Gen 7:11) Noah: one year later ark rested on Mount Ararat. (Gen 8:14)	2nd Month, 27th Day	May 13th	Ascension Day is observed in 52 countries. They do not celebrate on this on the correct day since they base it on a moving Easter date.
1st Day of the Month Celebration (Num 28:11)	3rd Month, 1st day	May 17th
The Feast of Weeks (Pentecost) Feast A renewal of the covenants our Father made with our ancestors. Covenants made with Noah in 3238 BC, Abraham in 2092 BC, Isaac in 2069 BC, Jacob 1879 BC and Israelites in 1448 BC. In 33 AD, Apostles & 3000 others baptized received the Holy Spirit. Offering were made at Pentecost at Sunday services.	3rd Month, 15th day	May 31st	Many churches used to called this feast WhitSun or White Sunday.  This is when the churches would have revivals, the Christians would dress in white and baptisms would be performed. The First Fruits & determining the correct date of the Feast of Weeks Pentecost & Our Covenants The history of Pentecost & how we are saved by water. This 1880 Wright’s Almanac shows Pentecost is called Whit Sunday (page 14) and they were basing the date on a movable Easter. Whit Sunday is considered a Holiday in 31 countries.
Trinity Sunday also called Decoration Day, a time to remember our ancestors & visit the cemeteries. (Exo 20:12, honoring our forefathers)	3rd Month, 22nd Day	Jun 7th	Memorial Day in the America used to be called Decoration Day.  It used to be a where the families would have a picnic at the cemeteries and pray for the souls of their ancestors.  I mention Trinity Sunday in my All Saints Day article. Trinity Sunday is reflected on the 1880 Wrights Almanac (page 14) on the Sunday after Whit Sunday.

About Pagan Festivals

Many festivals were started with biblical origins and were called by different names. Various Popes wanted to stop these festivals; however they had a hard time getting the rural or country folks to stop these traditions.  Pagan is the Latin word for rural meaning people who lived in the countryside.  Therefore these Popes were trying to get the rural people to stop observing festivals with biblical origin.   Lots of people today want to refer to pagans as being heathen; however not all pagan practices were of heathen nature.  If there are no laws stating the activity is forbidden, recorded by Moses or anywhere else in our bibles, the activity should not be considered heathen.   I have seen videos of corrupted solstice celebrations that I would not even consider attending.

Conclusion

I plan to continue celebrating the feast days as our Father in Heaven put into law.  I hope you will also. Praise our Father in Heaven who gave us the prophecy of the fulfillment of the Feast Days!!
