How to Keep God’s Feasts<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
Have you heard of God’s festivals and holy days? Did you know that they are referred to in the Book of Genesis? Do you know where all of God’s feasts are listed in the Bible? Do you know how to keep each one? What should you do if you are not physically able to go to meet with brethren on those days? How should you keep them? What does the Bible say? This sermon discusses Passover, the Days of Unleavened Bread, the Night to be Much Observed, the Wave Sheaf, Pentecost, the Feast of Trumpets, the Day of Atonement, the Feast of Tabernacles, and the Last Great Day. How one should finance attendance at the Feast is also discussed.<\/div>\n
