10 Reasons Why Rosh Hashanah Is A Christian Holiday Too

As Jews all over the globe sound the shofar and celebrate Rosh Hashanah (the Feast of Trumpets) this year, the vast majority of Christians will have absolutely no idea that Rosh Hashanah is a Christian holiday too. It is a holiday that was created by God, it is a holiday that Jesus celebrated, it is a holiday that the first Christians celebrated, it is a holiday that foreshadows the return of Jesus, and it is a holiday that the entire world will celebrate during the 1000 year reign of Jesus on earth. Sadly, most Christians don't know the first thing about this amazing festival. But Christians should learn about it. The truth is that God has always had His most important events foreshadowed by His festivals and has always had His most important events actually fall on the dates of these festivals. For example, Passover foreshadowed the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross and it was fulfilled on that day. Pentecost foreshadowed the giving of the Holy Spirit and it was fulfilled on that day. The Feast of Tabernacles foreshadowed the birth of the Messiah and it was fulfilled on that day. So what does the Feast of Trumpets foreshadow? It foreshadows the last trumpet before the return of Jesus Christ, and it seems almost a certainty that it will be fulfilled on that day as well. (Read More.....)

The truth is that it is a very ancient pagan holiday, and most of the Christmas traditions of today can be directly traced back to pagan practices. (Read More.....)

Was Jesus Born During The Feast Of Tabernacles And Not On Christmas?

In a previous article we alluded to the fact that Yahshua (Jesus) was almost certainly born during the Feast of Tabernacles. But is there any evidence for this? Is there any evidence that Jesus was not born on December 25th? The truth is that the vast majority of both Christians and non-Christians are shocked when you tell them that Yahshua (Jesus) was not born anywhere near December 25th. In fact, the word "Christmas" is not anywhere in the Bible, and neither are "Christmas trees" or "Christmas presents". (Read More.....)

The Shofar, Rosh Hashanah And The Return Of Jesus Christ

The vast majority of Jews and the vast majority of Christians have no idea that there is a connection between the shofar, Rosh Hashanah and the return of Jesus Christ to this earth.
