Intro to: The Journey Through of the Seven Feasts of the Lord

This is an intro to a Journey Through of the Seven Feasts of the Lord that played out during the time from Moses to AD70 and the new beginning of the New Heaven and Earth through the types and antitypes. This was like a road map showing us God’s plan of redemption or a prophecy of timed events that would occur before the end of the Age in AD70.

The first perspective on Preterism was back in Leviticus 23 with the last three Fall Feast. The first four Feast were in the Springtime with a dry period of four months until the Fall Feasts came into play. These Feasts were like a play rehearsal for the time of the end of the Age that the people of Israel did for about 1600 years.

The Seven Feasts of the Lord “not Israel” foreshadowed the events that took place after the ministry of Jesus Christ was complete with the anti-type or fulfillment of His death in the Feast of Passover.

The Feast of Unleavened Bread was the exodus from the bondage in Egypt which the antitype is leaving our old life in the flesh behind and entering into the realm of the Spirit and being alive.

The Feast of First-Fruits was the resurrection of the first-fruits from Adam to Christ which occurred when Jesus died on the cross. They went out and appeared to many in the holy city.

The Feast of Shavuot or Weeks was when the Ten Commandments were given and 3000 died after the made a calf to worship. Then with the fulfillment with the infilling of the Holy Spirit with 3000 being saved and the establishment of the New Covenant. These Spring Feasts were a type of the first century saints that was baptized into Christ death and resurrection and infilling of the Holy Spirit.

Then there was a forty year period which was one generation also associated with the 1000 year reign of Christ. Then the anti-type of the Fall Feasts were fulfilled after 40 years.

The Fall Feasts began at the end of the Age in AD70. The Feast of Trumpets fulfillment began in August or September when the Temple was destroyed and the resurrection of the just and unjust occurred. The Feast of Trumpets was the first fall feast with the blowing of trumpets was similar to the walls of Jericho coming down in according to Joshua 6:1–27. Also at the sound of the trump the dead rise both the just and the unjust for judgment with the second appearing of Christ and the announcement of the inviting to all nations of the Earth to the marriage of the Lamb for the Feast of Tabernacles. The Seventh Trumpet was an announcement to the resurrection of the dead. Rev. 11: 15-19

The the Feast of the Day of Atonement was Judgment Day after Jesus Christ returned as the High Priest who entered into the Most Holy Place with His blood and waited for it to be accepted by the Father which could not be done while the Temple still stood according to Hebrews 9: 8.

Then there was the final Feast of Tabernacles which the antitype is the New Heaven and Earth and the marriage of Christ and the first century Church and when God would tabernacle with His people and fellowship with them. It was required that all the nations of the Earth from Noah to attend this Feast for a blessing or they would be cursed with no rain.

Revelation 21: 1 Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea. 2Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God. 4 And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”
