The
Church of God faithfully observes the seven scripturally
commanded annual Holy Days which were given to us by the
LORD through Moses, and which were kept by Jesus, His
apostles and all of His faithful New Testament church
members.
The Holy Days are annual Sabbaths
called "the Feasts of the LORD."
God
commands His people to keep, not only the weekly
Sabbath Day;
but His annual Festivals as
well.
The Holy Days reveal God's continuing
plan for all mankind.
From Jesus Christ's
sacrifice as the Passover Lamb to the Last Great
Day,
the Holy Days explain God's intervention
in bringing many sons to glory.
And
the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
"Speak unto
the children of Israel, and say unto them,
'Concerning
the feasts of the LORD,
which you shall
proclaim to be holy convocations,
even these
are my feasts.'"
(Leviticus 23:1-2)
