But where did Christmas and Easter really come from? The Bible doesn't mention these festivals, yet they are an integral part of the Christian mainstream. Why are these celebrations so popular? Most important, what does God say about such customs? Does He allow us to worship Him however and whenever we see fit? Does the Bible tell us whether God expects Christians to worship Him on specific days and at specific times? What can we learn from the example of Jesus Christ, in whose footsteps God expects us to follow? (1 John 2:6; 1 Corinthians 11:1). In contrast to the popularly celebrated holidays, the Bible informs us of specific days of worship—God's annual "feasts" (Leviticus 23:1-2)—that are unknown to most people. How does one decide which to keep? In the free booklet, Holidays or Holy Days: Does It Matter Which Days We Keep, we will compare these observances with the instructions about worship found in the Bible. Join us as we embark on a historical and biblical journey to discover the truth about holidays and Holy Days. |
