1 | Is Passover connected with Resurrection | Heb 12:24 | sonofmom | 221789 | ||
Thank you doc, your time is appreciated in formulating your response, after putting aside the sophmoric observations and verses taken out of context which have little to do with the subject. I did not find my dignity impugned in the least, because there is no lack of integrity within my heart., nor do I find pleasure in that among others. Putting that behind, I am quite trying to stay on task here. The task I am concerned with is an ongoing dialogue between myself and some that observe Jewish feasts and feel obligated to continue. They would like me to learn more about the meaning of certain feasts, but I wanted to learn also from a Christian perspective. Alas, I continue to search out a Christian perspective. Certainly, there is no harm in participating in the celebration of these feasts, as long as one does not use them as a replacement for Christ's blood, just as there is no harm in participating in other activities that offer fellowship but are unable to procure salvation. As I turn to Exodus, I find that the feast in question is to be an ordinance for ever: And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall keep it a feast to the LORD throughout your generations; ye shall keep it a feast by an ordinance for ever. (Ex 12:14) How does the Bible define "for ever"? So, I will study further, knowing that Jer 31:31 says, "Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah" This, because the design of divine grace is much more perfect than the law, the law being only a rough sketch of the beautiful picture yet to come. |

Good questions and great observations. As you are discovering, Judaizers are not a problem only faced by the apostles. It still amazes me that they can read Galatians and Hebrews, then continue to cling to an Ashkenazic Judaism. Consider your "for ever" question within the context of the completed work of Christ. (See article 3 of the Chicago Statement of Biblical Hermeneutics.) I am glad you've come to the forum! |
