Feasts Of The Lord
The Feasts of the Lord include Passover, Unleavened Bread, First Fruits, Weeks, Trumpets, Day of Atonement, and Tabernacles. These first four Feasts represent what the Lord did during His first coming. During the Feast of Passover, the blood of Jesus was shed on a cross (John 19:14, 1 Cor. 5:7, Heb. 9:28a, John 1:29). During the Feast of Unleavened Bread, His body did not decay while in the grave (Psa. 16:10, Acts 2:27). During the Feast of First Fruits, Jesus rose from the dead (1 Cor. 15:20). During the Feast of Weeks, the power of the Spirit of Christ came upon believers (Acts 2:1-4).
The last three Feasts represent what the Lord will do during His second coming. During the Feast of Trumpets the Son of Man will come in the glory of His Father. His angels will gather the righteous before the unrighteous are destroyed (Mat. 24:29-31, 16:27, 1 Cor. 15:50-52, Ezra 3:1-6). The prophets call it the day of the Lord (Joel 2:30-31, Isa. 13:9-11, Zep. 2:3). During the Day of Atonement the Holy One will return for the salvation of Israel (Dan. 9:24, Rev. 10:1-7, Rom. 11:25-27, Heb. 9:28). Five days later, during the Feast of Tabernacles, the Messiah will gather the remnant of Israel before the last seven plagues are poured out (Lev. 23:32-34, Rev. 14:1-4; 15:1; 16:1-21).
The resurrection during the Feast of Trumpets is the first event of Christ's second coming. The spiritual salvation of Israel will begin once the Holy One (Messiah) comes to earth on the Day of Atonement. This is the second event of His coming (Rev. 10:1-7).
