Why Christians Should Quit Easter and Start Celebrating the Biblical Holidays

This is why Christians should quit Easter and start celebrating the Biblical holidays instead.

Easter happens around the same time of year as the Biblical holidays of Passover, the Feast of Unleavened Bread, and First Fruits.

While the Bible tells us to celebrate certain set apart times, we are never told to participate in the customs of Easter!

To be clear, giving up Easter does NOT mean we don't celebrate the resurrection of the Messiah or that we're not thankful for that!

But rather, embracing the Biblical set apart times of Passover, Unleavened Bread, and First Fruits means celebrating the Messiah's resurrection for eight days, instead of one.

Embracing the Biblical holidays means you celebrate the Messiah's resurrection when and how the Bible says to.

The Messiah is referred to as the lamb throughout the New Testament because of what the lamb stood for at Passover. Keeping Passover gives us better understanding of the who the Messiah is and why YHWH chose to call him the lamb.

In Exodus the blood of the lamb spared the Israelites from death. Because the lamb was killed, they were not.

The Messiah was killed on Passover and resurrected on First Fruits - neither event happened on Easter.

The Biblical holidays are a wealth of historic and prophetic significance. Taking part in them helps us to grow closer to the Creator and understand Scripture better.

The Messiah said, "Blessed are those who hear the word of YHWH and put it into practice." -Luke 11:28

Worthy is the lamb who was slain to receive my honor and praise.
