Unraveling the fullness of Salvation within the feasts of the Lord - Douglas Arukwe - Part 1

 The plan of man’s redemption and coming into the fullness of God’s glory is foreshadowed in the seven feasts of the lord.

 “Any serious study of Bible prophecy should begin with the feast days of Israel that are found in the law. The feast days provide us with the basic outline of the plan of God of salvation for the individual, as well as an outline of God's plan (as Paul states) to "put all things under His feet."

Every move of God in all dispensations and progressions in Christian journey are symbolized in the feasts of Jehovah. Every move of God is a joyful sound and the Psalmist in his Psalms 89:15 indicates that the joyful sound is symbolized by the feasts and those who have the knowledge and understanding of the sound will walk in the light of God’s countenance; in other words, they will follow the trail of that sound till they arrive at the place of the fullness of God’s glory; where their measure will correspond to the full stature of Christ. So the feasts of Jehovah are roadmap to our eternal predestination in Christ.

“Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) are the people who know the joyful sound [who understand and appreciate the spiritual blessings symbolized by the feasts]; they walk, O Lord, in the light and favor of your countenance!  In Your name they rejoice all the day, and in your righteousness they are exalted.  For you are the glory of their strength [their proud adornment], and by your favor our horn is exalted and we walk with uplifted faces! For our shield belongs to the Lord, and our king to the Holy One of Israel. ” Ps 89:15-18AMP

I personally believe that the knowledge of the seven feasts of Jehovah will help us greatly in our voyage to the terminus of our Predestination in Christ. Most believers do not like to study the Old Testament. Old Testament is the foundation of the New Testament. The New Testament was concealed in Old Testament and Old Testament is revealed in The New Testament.

Jesus in His teachings made great use of the Old Testament scripture, and all the epistle writers made use of the Old Testament scripture. The Old Testament is part of the scripture that Apostle Paul referred to when he said that all scripture is given by inspiration of God.

“All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.” 2 Tim 3:16-17

Old Testament is profitable as the New Testament is for doctrine, reproof, correction, instruction in righteousness and for the perfection of the saints. Complete knowledge of God is found in the both Testament. The two Testaments are dependent on each other for comprehensive understanding.
