the rich, rich culture of the Word, who God is, as it is portrayed, and experienced through the feasts, brings closure. To me, in regards to my practice of Christianity
The feasts bring forth the kingdom gospel, and promote the Kingdom that Christianity talks about, but doesn't reach back into its roots from where it came.
It's man's way or it's God's way.The Feasts keep reminding us, it's God's way.

Take away:
The feast, the ten commandments all came before the Jews. God commanded that His people keep the biblical feast. These feast are His cycles in which He fulfills many of His promises and brings forth what He wants through out the year for His people. As we keep the feast we discover the roots of our faith and the rich culture that we have in Christianity. By keeping the feast we get a broader view of the Kingdom.
