YHWH's plan for the salvation of humanity is shown by the seven feasts He gave to ancient Israel
in Leviticus 23. He told the people to celebrate these feasts as "lasting ordinances." The seven
feasts are patterns that describe the two comings of Yahshua the Messiah.

4 Important aspects of the Festivals
1. Agricultural in context
2. Festivals are historical as well as prophetic
3. They teach about the redemptive plan of the God of Israel through Yahshua & the restoration
of all things through Him
4. They teach about our personal relationship with the Messiah
Festivals are blueprints of YHWH's redemptive plan through Yahshua. The Festivals teach how we are redeemed from Egypt(world & world system) by putting the blood of the Lamb (Messiah) upon the doorposts (our hearts) and how we grow from children in the kingdom of heaven with a slave (worldly) mentality to our full spiritual maturity in Messiah by walking in the will of YHWH for our lives which is our spiritual promised land.
