Holidays or Holy Days

Over the centuries Christians have replaced God-made festivals with man-made days: Christians celebrate Easter instead of Passover and First Fruits; Pentecost instead of Shavuot; Christmas instead of Sukkot and Chanukah.

Leviticus 23 discusses the feasts of the Lord. Check out this commentary, with Biblical text of Leviticus 23, that relates the feasts to Yeshua.

Don't think only theologically about this. Think practically. God appointed these holidays. Does it make sense that believers make up different holidays when the One who is perfect, the Creator, our Savior set apart days that He would fulfill?
