    The Appointed Times: God's Calendar of Redemption

    The appointed times of the LORD are not merely 'Jewish holidays' — they are holy convocations that reveal the entire redemptive story from first to last. Understanding the feasts deepens our appreciation for the roots that sustain our faith.

    These are the appointed feasts of Adonai, holy convocations which you are to proclaim at their appointed seasons.

    — Leviticus 23:4 (TLV)

    Spring Feasts: Fulfilled in Messiah

    Pesach (Passover), the Omer, and Shavuot (Pentecost) form the spring cycle. Passover reveals the Lamb; the firstfruits point to resurrection; Shavuot marks the giving of the Spirit. These feasts find their fulfilment in the first coming of Yeshua.

    Fall Feasts: The Hope of His Return

    Yom Teruah (Trumpets), Yom Kippur (Atonement), and Sukkot (Tabernacles) form the fall cycle. These appointed times point toward awakening, reconciliation, and the joy of God dwelling with His people — themes that resonate with the Christian hope of the Messiah's return.

    We do not claim to know the precise timing of God's prophetic plan. Instead, we seek to remain faithful to Scripture, pray for Jerusalem, pursue truth, and cultivate love and understanding as we await the Messiah's return.
