JS-101/201

Feasts of the Lord - This course provides a means of understanding God’s plan for the nation of Israel throughout the ages. A study of the Feasts teaches seven basic areas of Theology, including aspects of the coming New Heavens and earth, which have a direct affect upon our lives. Unlike many other studies of the Feasts, this study focuses in upon the concepts developed from Scripture and not rabbinical traditions and man’s preconceived ideas. This course will not teach how the modern Jewish people observe these feasts; rather, God will reveal His purposes through His Word for both the Jewish nation and for the Christian. - Level 2 & 3 - Level 3 has added requirements.
