For those who are new to the idea of Torah (God's Divine Instructions in Righteousness as outlined in the first five Books of the Bible), did you know that God's seven "feasts" were meant for ALL who accept Him? Did you know that each of those Appointed Times has significance in biblical history and in ADONAI’s grand plan ... AND did you know that Yeshua has so far fulfilled FOUR of those SEVEN Feasts?
Yes, we definitely are to celebrate those Feasts! Remember, in Messiah Yeshua (Jesus), there is no Jew nor Gentile, male nor female, slave nor free (Galatians 3:28); as we are all ONE in Messiah (Romans 12:5 and John 17:21), which means, ALL are to follow the same rules.
While this may sound daunting, it's not. Once you grasp what Torah is, and begin to follow some of those "forever" rules (i.e., the yearly feasts and weekly Sabbaths), you'll discover what joy it is to DO something for our Creator. Those set-apart times are our weekly and yearly "dates" with Him. Halleluyah!

Also, for those who are interested, there is a very simple explanation of “how to to keep the Feasts” in Rabbi Barney Kasdan’s book, God’s Appointed Times, which can be found on Amazon and various bookstores. His book is an enlightening guide to biblical holy days from a messianic Jewish perspective.
Leader of one of the largest messianic congregations in the world, (Kehilat Ariel Messianic Synagogue) Rabbi Kasdan explains the Sabbath, Hanukkah, Passover, the Day of Atonement, Purim, and other holidays. Each chapter includes historical background, traditional Jewish observances, relevance to the New Testament, prophetic significance, recipes, and crafts.
