“And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 24 ‘Speak to the people of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall observe a day of solemn rest, a memorial proclaimed with blast of trumpets, a holy convocation. 25 You shall not do any ordinary work, and you shall present a food offering to the LORD.'”
– Leviticus 23:23-25
I find this picture to be amusing. But accurate.
For all of those who are participating in the Feast, have a very blessed eight days.
Leviticus 23:33-36 “And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, ‘Speak to the people of Israel, saying, On the fifteenth day of this seventh month and for seven days is the Feast of Booths to the LORD. On the first day shall be a holy convocation; you shall not do any ordinary work. For seven days you shall present food offerings to the LORD. On the eighth day, you shall hold a holy convocation and present a food offering to the LORD. It is a solemn assembly; you shall not do any ordinary work.'”

All the posts during that week will be for the first study on Sabbath, October 2nd.
Enjoy the Feast, and get ready for Bible Study!

If the Messiah paid the price on the cross once and for all, why should we care about the Day of Atonement?

Most theologians will agree that the December 25th date is not accurate, but there are still disagreements trying to settle on a new date. Some will argue that since the actual birth date cannot be determined, we should just leave it alone. Those that want to distance the birth from the Christmas season will still debate whether the birth happened in the spring or the fall. But does any of this matter?
