You lack discernment !!! To many so called Christian’s people are holding you in bondage. We are the church and we are not told to observe the Jewish holy day’s !!! That is a lie of the devil himself.
Excellent presentation. It is such a blessing to keep God's Feasts listed in Leviticus 23. Thank you for clearly showing the syncretism of paganism in a lot of the religious holidays celebrated today.
Thank you for taking the time to make and share this video presentation... What you have spoken is the truth... I support your message and even more importantly, so do the Scriptures... I gladly gave your video a "thumbs up"... My Wife and I have removed these pagan/heathen rites and traditions from our lives... I praise Abba-Yah for showing us the Way... Sadly, most Christians don't want to hear or accept the truth...
"Thus you have made the commandment of God of no effect by your tradition. And in vain they worship Me, Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men." [Matthew 15:6,9; NKJV] I previously wasn't aware of God's TRUE Holy Days but celebrated false pagan holidays... and after taking an interest in some of the material that Life, Hope & Truth was covering, or should I say, revealing, the veil was removed. I won't celebrate them.
I remember being shocked when I learned the "truth" as a 9-year old boy peeking beneath the bedroom door that "Santa Claus" was not real, but really was my mother getting presents down from the attic. I felt lied to. That actually led me to wonder if Jesus Christ was real! Thankfully, from teachers and teachings like this, I learned the Truth as shared here by the writers, presenters and hands behind the scenes at Life, Hope and Truth. Many thanks to you all and your supporters.
I think, when faced with this knowledge, much of Christianity struggles with letting go of these pagan holidays. Not because they can't see their origins, but because they are so entrenched in keeping them. Many have such fond memories attached to these days, that they are unwilling to let go of them and would rather hang on the crutch of "well I'm keeping them for Jesus now" or "I know they are pagan but we don't celebrate the Easter bunny or a fat man in a red suit". It really boils down to an unwillingness to let go of these "happy traditions". Satan has played his hand well here.
There’s pagan practices have slowly become part of western culture . So many people observe these pagan holidays so it’s difficult to stop observing these holidays.
Your video presentation is a good compliment to the various COG publications. I encourage you to write a booklet on this subject. Thank you very much for this very presentation.
Keep studying on this and ask questions. I am no expert but my understanding for now is - there are no high priest since there is no Temple. Plus, Jesus is our high priest and we should practice His appointed times so that when He does return we have some knowledge of what to do. Think of it like dancing; if all of a sudden the announcement is 'we are going to dance the ________' and you don't know the steps, it will be harder to catch up/catch on. So yes, you will see certain believers gathering together at campgrounds and parks to practice some of these appointed Festivals and have fellowship.
Considering Pagans had no idea about a bible, it's not surprising they didn't know about God the creator. They worshiped gods that they thought were the creator's of all they saw
However there was a permanent break between the Hebrews or Jews and the Nazarenes or Christians as early as 80 AD.....AND.....there is evidence that the Feasts of the Nativity and the Feast of the Resurrection were already being celebrated by Christians while the Apostle John was still alive....certainly before the martyrdom of Bishop Polycarp in 150 AD. So there it is!
It is fatuous to seek for a Holy day that was instituted by Christs church AFTER the scriptures were written down.....of course you wont find any word of Christmas but you will read lengthy accounts of the Nativity of our Lord in Matthew and Luke......therein lies the justification...
WAIT A MINUTE St Valentinus sanctioned proper CHRISTIAN marriages and was murdered savagely by the Roman beast system - St Valentine’s Day was his day he returned to The Father.
@@MultiSky7 ??? The blessed in heaven will be glorified like Jesus on the Mount of Transfiguration. Rooted in Jesus’ own words, “… the righteous will shine like the sun,” in Matthew 13:43, the Church teaches the blessed will shine with the glory of God so brilliant that it is believed by some that we on earth could not stand to even behold one of the blessed in heaven if he were revealed in all of his glory!
@@eddiebermeo429 "WILL shine". WHERE does it say that they will shine immediately after they die? John 16:8 "And He, WHEN HE COMES, will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment;" Revelation 11:18 "And the nations were enraged, and Your wrath came, and the time came for the DEAD TO BE JUDGED, AND THE TIME TO REWARD your bond-servants the prophets and THE SAINTS and those who fear Your name, the small and the great, and to destroy those who destroy the earth.” Revelation 20:12 "And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Then another book was opened, which is the book of life. AND THE DEAD WERE JUDGED by what was written in the books, according to what they had done." John 5:29 "and will come forth; those who did the good deeds to a resurrection of life, those who committed the evil deeds to a resurrection of judgment." ps. I hope that I don't need to remind you that "THE SAINTS" are people, believers in Jesus, who are ALIVE. 1 Corinthians 1:2 "unto the church of God which is at Corinth, even them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place, their Lord and ours" But because everyone is unholy by nature and eventually we choose to act in unholy ways out of that unholy nature, the judgement for ALL of us comes at the END, not before. Therefore, just as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men, because all sinned (Romans 5:12) Blessing comes after Jesus' judgement, not before. Blessings are in the Book of life. When I hear "the Church teaches" I get urticaria ... it's like you are illiterate braindead morons with no capability of reading and understanding of what you read so you need church to translate it for you and tell you what it means. The same church that sanctifies whomever THEY see fit, has molested children throughout the centuries and shoved it under the carpet, is (now) blessing pagan deities, approving gay marriage, approving and FORCING the "vaccines" with tissue of aborted babies, and says that the atheists can go to Heaven. Did God give you brain?! Yes He did. Use it.
Buddy ; come on , we are the church age and you are keeping us in bondage by telling us we are to keep Gods holy days of old. God doesn’t like that either so you are doing just what you said God say’s not to do by mixing thing’s together. Leviticus was to the ( Jewish people ) and nowhere in the New Testament we are told to keep these traditions of the Jewish people. God doesn’t like that either. Stop keeping us in bondage of the old Jewish tradition’s. Jesus death on the cross took that all away.
first of all, Jesus doesn't hate anything. Second of all, I believe as Christians we should focus more on Jesus, then on the old testament, since it is yet not clear what the true identity of the jealous, hateful, wrathful and terrible god of the old testament actually is, something the Gnostics were on to, before being eradicated for daring to suggest that.
The God of the New Testament is the God of the Old Testament. Jesus hates sin and He will judge all unrepentant sinners on the day of judgement. Jesus is God, the Second Person of the Trinity, manifest in the flesh. Speaking evil of God is evidence that you don't know the Lord Jesus Christ.
My hope and prayer is that God will bless the following message to everyone who reads it. 🫱In the beginning God made the heaven and the earth and everything in them. God created a man in His image, after His likeness and named him Adam. The LORD God commanded the man saying, "Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die." God said that it was not good for the man to be alone, so He created a woman (Eve) from one of Adam's ribs, to be his helper. The serpent (Satan - See Revelation 12:9) was in the garden and he beguiled Adam's wife. She ate from the tree and gave to her husband and he ate of the fruit, disobeying God's commandment. That day they both died spiritually and eventually, physically. Because of the fall everyone is born spiritually dead and in bondage to sin. We must be given a spiritual resurrection (born again) before we can see the Kingdom of God. - You can read all about creation and the fall of man in greater detail from the book of Genesis. God is Holy, Holy, Holy, and perfectly righteous. He is the Just Judge and so He must and will punish everyone who dies in their sins. God is good, gracious and merciful, but we are not good. We have all broken God's Law (Sin is the transgression of God's Law), many, many times. God's written Word teaches us that in our unregenerate state our hearts are deceitful above all things and desperately wicked and that we are at enmity against God. While many go after false gods and make themselves idols, Scripture tells us that no-one seeks God. Scripture tells us that there is not a just man upon earth, that does good, and does not sin and that all our righteousneses are as filthy rags. Most people compare themselves to the most wicked men who have ever lived to justify themselves, but it is foolish to compare ourselves to others, because we will all stand in front of the same Judge at the last day, who knows everything about us, even our secret thoughts (those thoughts you don't want anyone to know about) and if He does not see Christ's righteousness when He looks at you, you will be found guilty for your sins and you will be cast into the lake of fire. The Lord Jesus Christ is God manifest in the flesh. He was born of a virgin and lived a perfectly sinless life that we do not. The Gospel is the Good News about what the Lord Jesus Christ did for His people. He suffered, bled, and died for our sins, drinking the cup of the Father's wrath in our place, and He rose from the grave on the third day for our justification. Except for those of us in Christ who are alive and remain when the Lord Jesus Christ returns, everyone is going to die, eventually. One day your soul will be required of you by your Creator. Today could be your last day on earth. And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for Him shall He appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Hebrews 9:27-28 And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust. Acts 24:15 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. Daniel 12:2 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. Revelation 21:8 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. Revelation 20:15 If you repent (Repentance is a change of mind that leads to a change of actions), and believe the Gospel, confessing with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believing from your heart that God has raised Him from dead, you will be saved. My hope and prayer is that you will repent and come to the Lord Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. "I Am the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me... I Am the Bread of Life: he that cometh to Me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on Me shall never thirst... I Am the Door: by Me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture... I Am the Resurrection, and the Life: he that believeth in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in Me shall never die. Believest thou this?.. I Am the Light of the world: he that followeth Me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the Light of life... Ye must be born again... Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of Water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again... If ye believe not that I Am He, ye shall die in your sins... Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be betrayed unto the chief priests and unto the scribes, and they shall condemn Him to death, And shall deliver Him to the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify Him: and the third day He shall rise again... And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that He gave His Only Begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved. He that believeth on Him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God... And this is the will of Him that sent Me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on Him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day... Repent ye, and believe the Gospel...I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish... I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I Am He, ye shall die in your sins... I Am He that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I Am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death... I Am Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the Ending, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty... Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you, and learn of Me; for I Am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls." - The Lord Jesus Christ🫲

It seems to me that some of these feasts are too be performed in sacred places by high priests. Are they all for everyone to do in their homes?

Jesus is the God of the Old Testament - remember all things were created though Him. John 1:3 Also Proverbs 6:16-19 Six things God hates.

There's some serious mental gymnastics going on here. Most unpleasent and misinforming.
The Church gave the old festivals new names in order to make them acceptable.
Reading the Bible and believing it plainly isn't "mental gymnastics."
Christian doctrine, however, is mostly mental gymnastics.
@@steve132001 Justifying all the inconsistencies is mental gymnastics.
@janetgillespie6590 💯. Just like the church is doing now with celebrating fall harvest or trunk or treat during halloween.
The mental gymnastics is done in the mainstay church, not in Yah’s Word or through people who have the proper understanding of what it really says.
