“1 Peter 2:5 – In His Hands, We Are Built”
“Christianity” has not been able to satisfactorily answer some very basic difficult questions in regards to what is planned for mankind. God’s Word clearly does however, and we will discuss why this day, the Last Great Day is the focal point of our Father and His Son’s plan for all mankind.
We observe the feast of tabernacles according to the commands that were given in the scriptures to the ancient Israelites in Leviticus 23. This is why we are told to learn to fear God always and is a main reason that we keep the feast. We recognize that the proper fear and respect for God and his laws produces abundance and happiness and everlasting joy.
We are called to a Holy Calling. We are called to become children of God. In the process of becoming children of God, we must overcome this physical world and its distractions.
God has planted something in us to realize that there is something more than this world. We are in training to live for eternity.
We carefully observe and keep each of the Feast Days of our Lord. But have we ever thought about the theme that runs throughout with something for each of us to DO? There’s a bit of time between the last Day of Unleavened Bread and Pentecost. Then between Pentecost until Trumpets as well…then after the Last Great Day until the next spring. We’ll look at what God has called us to DO.
The annual holy days God commanded ancient Israel to keep outline a plan of redemption for mankind. The finale of these days is at the end during the last two festivals called the Feast of Tabernacles and the Eighth Day. There are numerous prophecies in the Old and New Testaments describing a time which is termed the “restitution of all things.” We will examine a few prophecies of this time and a story in Acts 3 which are a type of this time to come.
We have the power of God within us. That power is the Holy Spirit. We need to kindle the power of the Holy Spirit just like we would kindle a fire. How do we do that?
Taking care of one’s health is important to for all age groups, but what about our “emotional health”?
We are called to a Holy Calling. We must learn to change and obey in order to eventually be born as sons of God in His Kingdom.
