Hi Greg,

 

In your letter posted on Five Doves today, you stated “For those who believe that the Rapture of the true Church will occur on a future Pentecost, the fourth festival of the Lord.”

 

I just re-read Leviticus 23 a two weeks ago and I could only find 5 feasts and 7 holy convocations days listed.  Leviticus 23:4 (KJV) These are the feasts of the Lord, even holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their seasons.  Notice that Passover is not listed as a feast or a holy convocation day.

 

Here are the 5 feasts of the Lord and the 7 holy convocation days based on Leviticus 23.

1.       Feast of Unleavened bread/Pesach – Nisan 15-21 – day 1 and day 7 are holy convocation days

2.       Firstfruits/Shavuot/Pentecost – Sunday, June 12, 2016 = Sivan 6, 5776 – the 50th day of the Omer – a holy convocation day

3.       Trumpets/ Rosh Hashanah - seventh month, in the first day of the month – October 3, 2016 = Tishrei 1, 5777 – New year’s day on the Jewish civil calendar – a holy convocation day

4.       Day of Atonement/ Yom Kippur - tenth day of this seventh month – October 12, 2016 = Tishrei 10, 5777 – a holy convocation day

5.       Feast of Tabernacles/Sukkot – begins on the fifteenth day of this seventh month – Monday, October 17, 2016 = Tishrei 15, 5777 and ends on October 23, 2016 = Tishrei 21, 5777 – day 1 and day 8 are holy convocation days

 

What scriptures say that Pentecost is the fourth festival of the Lord?

 

YBIC,
