The Ark of the Covenant in Procession
-
Dear Abe,
Merry Christmas and Happy new Year sa iyo at sa lahat ng sumusubaybay sa blog na ito.
Natutuwa ako at nananawagan ka sa mga brothers and sisters mo na huwag paniwalaan itong Philipp na isang LIAR LIAR LIAR. It look like that what I posted in you blog reached not only you but also those who read this blog which is my intention in the first place anyway.
Pero himukin mo sila na isa akong Liar, ang tanong what lies have I wrote? Can you consider it as a big lies when I ask, "is the foods offered to Idols the origin ng mga piestahan"
Now to support your side of the issue, nagbigay ka pa ng mga verses from the bible about the very word "feast". Lalo tuloy napagkikilala ka ng mga nakakaintindi sa bible na mababaw ang spiritual understanding mo sa words of God. Ang lahat ng isinulat mong verses ay walang kinalalaman sa mga idols.
To give you an insight about the spiritual significance ng mga feast na nasusulat sa bible, it was revealed to us thru the bible that commandment given by God to the Israelites are just a shadow of the reality that is coming . And of course that reality is Jesus Christ. All the Feasts that they were commanded to observe from the Passover to The Last Great Day pictures the salvation from Christ to the stablishment of the kingdom of God.
It is wrong to connect the partaking of bread and wine in the communion ceremony to the feast of unleaven bread. Dahil ang comunyon ay mula sa observance ng Passover. The passing over from the death of the first born male from the last plague na ibihuhos sa Egypt bago sila lumikas ay inilalarawan ng dugo ni Cristo na tutubos sa ating mga sins. To depart hurridly tne next day wala na silang time to bake leaven bread. Sa new covenant, seven days observance nila ng unleaven bread, means we continually leave the life of a sinning person. Iiwan na natin ang kasalanan na tinubos na ng Lord.
Sa feast of weeks or pentecost, harvesting is for the harvest of souls kaya it was the founding of Christ Church. Atonement is of course pictures that is is thru Christ sacrifice made possible our reconciliation with God. The feast of trumpet picture the glorious coming of the Lord. The feast of Tabarnacle shows us that we are all temporary sojuorner here and that our place is in the holy place of God. Anf the last feast The Last Great Day pictures the stablishment of the Kingdom of God.
All of these got nothing to do with foods and idols.
Ang masasabi ko lang naman ay ang nakikita kong celebration ng mga Fiesta. In our hometown in Bataan, si St Catherine of Sienna ang patron saint. I got no idea who is she nor any idea on what it got to do with my salvation.
From a chunk of wood, they sculptured an image of a woman, nilagyan ng mahabang blonde na buhok, may ikinabit na halo sa ulo na gawa sa yero. Sinuutan ng makulay at magandang damit na maraming makikintab na burda at palamuti. Mayroon pa raw na glass covering ang mga mata kaya parang tunay kung tingnan.
Noong bata ako sa prusisyon ay pinapasan ito ng mga lalake. But lately ay nasa karawahe na hininila at itinutulak ng mga tao. Paligid ito ng mga bulaklak at nagliliwanag sa ilaw kaya may kasunod na kariton na may generator.
Ang mga tao na kasama sa prusisyon ay may mga candle na dala. Sa mga bahay ay may mga handang marami at masasarap na pagkain (sabi ng iba ay ipinangutang lang iyon) . Itong mga practices na ito, hindi ba malinaw they are serving the idol. If you excert your effort, your money, your time for the idol, will it lead us to salvation?
If we claim we are apostolic church, does it come from the teaching of the apostles. Did the apostles leave us sort of feast and observances like this. Is there any verse in the bible that support this kind of practice. Or would we rather focus on Christ the only source of salvation.

[Dear Abe,]
HELLO THERE... NICE TO HEAR FROM YOU AGAIN.
[Merry Christmas and Happy new Year sa iyo at sa lahat ng sumusubaybay sa blog na ito.]
YOU SEE HOW HYPOCRITE YOU ARE. YOU ATTACK OUR CELEBRATION OF CHRISTMAS AND YET YOU ARE USING IT IN YOUR GREETING. YOU CAN GO TO HELL FOR THAT. HE, HE, HE...
[Natutuwa ako at nananawagan ka sa mga brothers and sisters mo na huwag paniwalaan itong Philipp na isang LIAR LIAR LIAR. It look like that what I posted in you blog reached not only you but also those who read this blog which is my intention in the first place anyway.]
AKO AY NATUTUWA BECAUSE THE READERSHIP OF MY BLOG HAS INCREASED TREMENDOULSY AND THE MESSAGE OF SUPPORT, GRATITUDE AND ENCOURAGEMENT FROM READERS HAVE INCREASED MORE THAN TRIPLE. HE, HE, HE... THE READERS ARE ENJOYING THE SHALLOWNESS OF YOUR ARGUMENTS THAT IS WHY I AM NOT ONLY POSTING THEM HERE BUT ALSO IN THE MAIN WALL AS WELL. HA, HA, HA...
[Pero himukin mo sila na isa akong Liar, ang tanong what lies have I wrote?]
ALMOST EVERYTHING THAT YOU HAVE WRITTEN HERE. FOR INSTANCE YOU REJECT CHRISTMAS AND YET YOU ARE GREETING ME 'MERRY CHRISTMAS'... NOT ONLY ME BUT ALSO ALL THE READERS. IT PROVES YOUR HYPOCRISY AND LIES.
[Can you consider it as a big lies when I ask, "is the foods offered to Idols the origin ng mga piestahan"]
OF COURSE IT IS A LIE BECAUSE PIESTAHAN ORIGINATED FROM GOD AND FOR HONOR OF GOD AS GOD HIMSELF COMMANDED IN THE BIBLE. WORD FOR WORD, THE BIBLE SHOWED THAT GOD ORDERED HIS PEOPLE TO CELEBRATE FEASTS FOR HIM:
SINCE YOU ARE OPPOSING FEASTS THEN YOU ARE OF THE DEVIL IF YOU ARE FROM GOD THEN YOU WILL CELEBRATE AND LOVE FEASTS. GOD ORDERED THAT THE CELEBRATION OF FEAST IS AN ORDINANCE FOREVER. THUS, YOUR REJECTION OF FEAST IS DEMONIC IN NATURE.
-
[Now to support your side of the issue, nagbigay ka pa ng mga verses from the bible about the very word "feast". Lalo tuloy napagkikilala ka ng mga nakakaintindi sa bible na mababaw ang spiritual understanding mo sa words of God. Ang lahat ng isinulat mong verses ay walang kinalalaman sa mga idols.]
HA, HA, HA... TANGA KA PALA E. KAYA NGA PISTA E, YON AY FOR GOD AND NOT FOR IDOLS. KAYA ANG MGA PISTA NAMIN AY FOR GOD AND NOT FOR IDOLS.
ANG TANONG, ANO BA ANG RELIHIYON MO AT ANO ANG PISTA NYO? HE, HE, HE... GALIT KA SA PISTA E ANG DIOS MAY PISTA. ANG BIBLIA MAY PISTA. KAYA ANG RELIGION MO AY GALING SA DEMONIO. ARAL NG DEMONIO ANG PINAGTITIBAY MO.
[To give you an insight about the spiritual significance ng mga feast na nasusulat sa bible, it was revealed to us thru the bible that commandment given by God to the Israelites are just a shadow of the reality that is coming .]
HA, HA, HA... TALAGANG TANGA KA. E DI INAMIN MO RIN NA MAY PISTA SA BIBLIA. HA, HA, HA... AT ANG PISTA AY MAY SPIRITUAL MEANING. HA, HA, HA... THE PROBLEM WITH YOU IS THAT YOU REJECT FEASTS. YOU DON'T HAVE FEASTS AND THEREFORE YOU DO NOT ENJOY THE SPIRITUAL MESSAGE AND GRACES BEING GIVEN BY GOD THROUGH HIS FEASTS.SIEMPRE BUKOD SA SPIRITUAL MEANING MERON DIN YANG SOCIAL AND CULTURAL MEANING AND ACTIVITIES. MERONG KAINAN AT KASIYAHAN NA NAKAUGNAY SA PAGSAMBA SA DIOS SA PANAHON NG KAPISTAHAN. KELAN PA NAGING MASAMA ANG KUMAIN NG MASASARAP KAPAG PISTA. KAYA NGA PISTA E. KASIYAHAN AT PAGDIRIWANG YON.
YANG MGA PISTA NA IYAN AY SHADOW OF THE THING TO COME. . RIGHT. SUBALIT WALANG SINABI NA KAPAG DUMATING NA ANG MESIYAS BAWAL NA ANG PISTA. WHERE CAN YOU READ THAT IN THE BIBLE? DAHIL ANG MESIYAS MISMO AY NAGPUPUNTA AT KUMAKAIN SA MGA PISTAHAN, WHETHER WEDDING FEASTS OR FEAST OF THE PASSOVER OR FEAST OF THE UNLEAVENED BREAD. KAYA KABALIWANG SABIHAN NA TINANGGAL ANG PISTA. KELAN PINATANGGAL ANG PISTA? HINDI ANG NAGTANGGAL? IKAW? ANG PASTOR MONG BALIW? HA, HA, HA...
- ANG PANGINOONG JESUS AY PINAGHANDAAN NG MALAKING PISTA AT SIYA AY KUMAIN AT UMINOM KASAMA ANG MGA MAKASALANAN. IKAW ANG KAPAL NG MUKA MO MINAMASAMA MO ANGPAGKAIN SA PISTA.
THE CONCEPT AND CELEBRATION OF FEAST IS ALWAYS CONNECTED WITH EATING TOGETHER BY SHARING BOUNTEOUS FOOD ON THE TABLE ACCORDING TO ONE'S FINANCIAL CAPACITY. THAT IS A CONCRETE EXPRESSION OF THANKSGIVING TO GOD... GIVING FOOD TO OTHERS.
[And of course that reality is Jesus Christ.]
AT HINDI TINANGGAL NI JESUS ANG PISTA. IN FACT, HE CELEBRATED THE EUCHARIST RIGHT ON THE FEAST OF THE PASSOVER AND COMMANDED HIS APOSTLES TO DO IT IN REMEMBRANCE OF HIM. WALANG SINABI NA ALISIN ANG PISTA:
KUNG SI LORD AY BALIW NA KAGAYA MO SANA SINABI NIYA: "HUWAG NA KAYONG MAG-ABALA. HINDI AKO PUPUNTA NG PISTA. AYOKO NG PISTA." HINDI. SA HALIP AY INUTUSAN NYA SILA NA IHANDA ANG KAKAINAN NIYA PARA SA PISTA NG PASCUA AT PISTA NG TINAPAY NA WALANG LEBADURA. HINDI SINUSUPORTAHAN NG BIBLIA ANG PAGSUWAY MO SA DIOS NA ALISIN ANG MGA PISTA.
[All the Feasts that they were commanded to observe from the Passover to The Last Great Day pictures the salvation from Christ to the stablishment of the kingdom of God.]
REALLY? THE LORD JESUS CELEBRATED THE PASSOVER AND HE TRANSFORMED THE BREAD AND THE WINE INTO HIS BODY AND BLOOD RIGHT ON PASSOVER FEAST. AND HE ORDERED HIS APOSTLES TO CONTINUE DOING SO. KELAN IPINAGBAWAL ANG PISTA? CHAPTER AND VERSE PLEASE.
[It is wrong to connect the partaking of bread and wine in the communion ceremony to the feast of unleaven bread.]
HA, HA, HA... TANGA. ANG LAST SUPPER AY NAGANAP RIGHT DURING THE FEAST OF THE PASSOVER AND THE UNLEAVENED BREAD VERY CLEAR ANG BIBLE D'YAN. WORD FOR WORD. TALAGANG CONNECTED YON. SINONG BALIW ANG NAGSABI SA YO NA HINDI CONNECTED YON?
KUNG AYAW NI LORD I-CONNECT YON DAPAT GINAWA NYA NG IBANG ARAW.
-
[Dahil ang comunyon ay mula sa observance ng Passover.]
HA, HA, HA... TANGA TALAGA. HA, HA, HA... ANG PASSOVER AT ANG FEAST OF UNLEAVENED BREAD AY INTERC0NNECTED. HA, HA, HA...
[The passing over from the death of the first born male from the last plague na ibihuhos sa Egypt bago sila lumikas ay inilalarawan ng dugo ni Cristo na tutubos sa ating mga sins.]
OF COURSE, SUBALIT WALANG SINABI ANG BIBLIA NA DAHIL NILALARAWAN NG DUGO NI CRISTO ANG PASSOVER E SIMULA NUON E HINDI NA PWEDENG MAGPISTA. OVER KA NA NAMAN DYAN. HE, HE, HE... GUMAGAWA KA NG KABALIWAN.
[To depart hurridly tne next day wala na silang time to bake leaven bread.]
THAT IS THE HISTORICAL MEANING OF THE UNLEAVENED BREAD. SUBALIT MERON DIN YANG SPIRITUAL MEANING. THE BREAD TO BE USED FOR THE PASSOVER MUST BE UNLEAVENED BECAUSE THE BODY OF THE MESSIAH IS NOT CORRUPTED BY SIN... IT IS SINLESS.
[Sa new covenant, seven days observance nila ng unleaven bread, means we continually leave the life of a sinning person.]
GAWA-GAWA MO LAMANG IYAN. THE CATHOLIC CHURCH ALSO TEACHES THAT CHRISTIANS SHOULD STRIVE TO ABANDON SINFUL LIVE DAILY. THAT IS WHY THERE IS A EUCHARISTIC COMMUNION IN OUR CHURCHES ON A DAILY BASIS. BUT IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT THE CELEBRATION OF THE FEAST IS ALREADY REJECTED. THERE IS NO CHAPTER AND VERSE THAT DEMANDS THE REMOVAL OF THE FEAST.
WALA KANG MAIPAKITANG TALATA SA AKIN NA NAGSASABING 'TANGGALIN', 'ALISIN' O 'WAG MAG PISTA'. WALANG WALA. KAYA TIGILAN MO ANG IYONG KAHANGALAN DAHIL ANG GALIT MO SA PISTA NAMIN AY GALING SA DEMONIO.
[Iiwan na natin ang kasalanan na tinubos na ng Lord.]
TINUTURO YAN NG SANTA IGLESIA. SUBALIT WALANG SINABI ANG BIBLIA NA DAHIL IIWAN NA NATINA ANG KASALANAN E BAWAL NA MAGPISTA. YON ANG PUNTO RITO E. BAKIT MO MINAMASAMA ANG MABUTI AT BAKIT MO GUSTONG IPAGBAWAL ANG HINDI PINAGBABAWAL NG DIOS AT NG BIBLIA? SINO KA AT SINO ANG PASTOR MO PARA ISALANGSANG ANG MGA KAPISTAHAN?
[Sa feast of weeks or pentecost, harvesting is for the harvest of souls kaya it was the founding of Christ Church.]
DEFINITELY IT IS NOT YOUR CHURCH DAHIL ANG RELIHIYON MO AY NEWLY INVENTED. KAYA NGA KINAHIHIYA MO E.
THE FACT THAT THE HOLY SPIRIT CHOSE THE FEAST OF THE HARVEST SHOWS THAT GOD IS NOT REJECTING THE FEAST. IN FACT, THE HOLY SPIRIT ALL THE MORE GAVE IMPORTANCE TO THE CELEBRATION OF THE FEAST OF THE HARVEST. THE HOLY SPIRIT DIDN'T TELL THE APOSTLES TO STOP CELEBRATING THE FEAST OF THE HARVEST OR THAT OF THE PENTECOST. NO, NO, NO...
THE APOSTLES WERE ASKED TO HARVEST SOULS FOR CHRIST BUT THEY WERE NOT TOLD THAT FROM THEN ON FEASTS ARE FORBIDDEN AS YOU SATANICALLY DO IN YOUR RELIGION. YOU ARE DRAWING CONCLUSION WHICH WAS NOT GIVEN BY GOD, BY JESUS OR BY THE HOLY SPIRIT.
-
[Atonement is of course pictures that is is thru Christ sacrifice made possible our reconciliation with God.]
BUT, ATONEMENT DOES NOT TEACH THAT FEASTS MUST BE FORBIDDEN. WHERE DID YOU GET THAT? CHAPTER AND VERSE PLEASE.
[The feast of trumpet picture the glorious coming of the Lord.]
YEAH, IT TRUMPETS THE COMING OF THE LORD BUT THE BIBLE DOES NOT TEACH THAT WHEN THE LORD COMES FEAST MUST BE FORBIDDEN. CHAPTER AND VERSE PLEASE.
[The feast of Tabarnacle shows us that we are all temporary sojuorner here and that our place is in the holy place of God.]
BUT, IT IS NOWHERE STATED THAT WHEN THE MESSIAH COMES THERE WILL BE NO FEASTS ANYMORE. CHAPTER AND VERSE PLEASE.
[Anf the last feast The Last Great Day pictures the stablishment of the Kingdom of God.]
JESUS ESTABLISHED THE KINGDOM OF GOD. BUT JESUS NEVER SAID THAT FROM THEN ON FEASTS ARE FORBIDDEN. YOU GOT THAT IDEA FROM SATAN AND NOT FROM JESUS.
-
[All of these got nothing to do with foods and idols.]
OUR FEASTS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH IDOLS. OUR FEASTS ARE FOCUSED ON THE LIFE OF THE MESSIAH: FEAST OF THE NATIVITY OF CHRIST, THE RESURRECTION OF CHRIST, THE ASCENSION OF CHRIST, THE ANNUNCIATION OF CHRIST, THE FEAST OF PENTECOST, ETC. SO YOUR COMPLAIN IS OUT OF TOUCH WITH REALITY.
NOW, CONCERNING FOOD. IT ONLY SHOWS THAT YOU ARE A BIBLICAL IDIOT. FOOD IS ALWAYS PART OF THE FEAST. THAT IS WHY THE FEAST OF PASSOVER IS ASSOCIATED WITH BREAD AND WINE. FEASTS ARE CELEBRATIONS WITH FOOD. FOR THAT REASON GOD TOLD PHARAOH THAT THE ISRAELITES MUST BRING THEIR CATTLE AND FLOCK TO THE MOUNTAIN SO THAT THE PEOPLE CAN OFFER A FEAST FOR HIM.
WHERE IN THE BIBLE DOES IT SAYS THAT FOOD ARE PROHIBITED DURING THE FEASTS? CHAPTER AND VERSES PLEASE.
[Ang masasabi ko lang naman ay ang nakikita kong celebration ng mga Fiesta.]
IBIG SABIHIN DULING KA AT HINDI KA MAKAKITA NG TAMA. HE, HE, HE...
[In our hometown in Bataan, si St Catherine of Sienna ang patron saint. I got no idea who is she nor any idea on what it got to do with my salvation.]
WELL, YOUR IGNORANCE IS OBVIOUS. AND IT AFFIRMS YOUR STUPIDITY. ANNUALLY, YOUR HOMETOWN CELEBRATES THE FEASTS OF THE BIRTH OF THE LORD, THE RESURRECTION OF THE LORD, ETC. THE FEAST OF ST. CATHERINE OF SIENA IS ONLY ONE OF THE FEASTS CELEBRATED IN YOUR PLACE. IT IS SUBORDINATE TO THE FEAST OF THE LORD'S NATIVITY, PASSION, DEATH AND RESURRECTION.
ST. CATHERINE OF SIENA IS A WOMAN WHO OFFERED HER LIFE TO GOD IN VIRGINITY AND PRAYERS. FOR THAT THE PEOPLE OF GOD IS THANKING GOD FOR GIVING US AN EXAMPLE OF HOLINESS THROUGH THAT SAINTLY WOMAN. IF THE NATION THANKS GOD EVERY AUG. 21 FOR THE SACRIFICE OF NINOY AQUINO THEN THE CHURCH GIVE THANKS TO GIVE FOR THE SACRIFICES OF ST. CATHERINE OF SIENA.
DEFINITELY ST. CATHERINE OF SIENA IS NOT AN IDOL BECAUSE SHE IS NOT A GODDESS BUT A TRUE CHRISTIAN WHO LIVED A SAINTLY LIFE... FOR THAT SHE IS A GOOD ROLE MODEL FOR CHRISTIAN SPIRITUALITY AS RIZAL OR NINOY AQUINO ARE GOOD ROLE MODEL FOR OUR POLITICAL OR SOCIAL LIFE AS FILIPINOS.
CATHERINE OF SIENA IS NOT AN IDOL BUT A SAINT OF GOD.

HA, HA, HA... TALAGANG TANGA KA. HA, HA, HA... SIEMPRE ANO ANG GUSTO MONG GAMITIN SA STATUE HANGIN? HA, HA, HA... EVEN THE IMAGES IN THE TEMPLE AND IN THE MEETING TENT OF GOD WERE MADE OF GOLD, SILVER, BRONZE, WOOD AND OTHER MATERIALS. THE ARK OF THE COVENANT IS MADE OF GOLD AND ACACIA WOOD. ONLY IDIOTS DREAMED OF STATUES MADE OF 'AIR'. HA, HA, HA...
[Noong bata ako sa prusisyon ay pinapasan ito ng mga lalake.]
SIEMPRE. GINAYA NAMIN YON SA BIBLIA NA PINAPASAN ANG ARK OF THE COVENANT. HINDI MO ALAM YAN?
[But lately ay nasa karawahe na hininila at itinutulak ng mga tao.]
ABA, TANGA TALAGA. HA, HA, HA... NAKALAGAY SA BIBLIA NA ANG ARK OF THE COVENANT NA NAGTATAGLAY NG GINTONG LARAWAN AY NILAGAY SA KARO AT ITINULAK NG MGA TAO. ALAM MO BA YAN?
SA TAGALOG ANG BIBLIA: "BAGONG KARO" ANG SALIN. SIEMPRE PAG GUMAWA KAMI NG BAGONG KARO E DI GAGAWIN NAMING MAGANDA. KUNG GUSTO NAMING HILAIN IYON NG BAKA, KABAYO O KOTSE E WALA KA NANG PAKILAAM DUON. HE, HE, HE...
[Paligid ito ng mga bulaklak at nagliliwanag sa ilaw kaya may kasunod na kariton na may generator.]
SIEMPRE, DAHIL ANG PROSISYON AY GABI. KUNG UMAGA WALANG ILAW NA KAILANGAN SUBALIT PAG GABI ANG PROSISYON E KAILANGAN NG ILAW. ANG KITID NG UTAK MO. HE, HE, HE...
[Ang mga tao na kasama sa prusisyon ay may mga candle na dala.]
BIBLICAL DIN ANG 'CANDLE'. BAKA HINDI MO ALAM YAN. HA, HA, HA...
[Sa mga bahay ay may mga handang marami at masasarap na pagkain]
SIEMPRE, KASI NGA NAGPAPASALAMAT SILA SA DIOS AT NAGCECELEBRATE. BAKIT PAG BIRTHDAY MO BA HINDI KA NAGHAHANDA? ANG SAKIM MO NAMAN.
[(sabi ng iba ay ipinangutang lang iyon) .]
ANG MANIWALA SA SABI-SABI AY WALANG BAIT SA SARILI.
ANG MGA MAHIHIRAP AY KONTI DIN LANG ANG HANDA. PANSIT AT SOPAS LANG. YUNG MGA MAY KAYA SA BUHAY ANG NAGHAHANDA NG MGA HAMON AT LECHON. HA, HA, HA...
[Itong mga practices na ito, hindi ba malinaw they are serving the idol.]
HINDI. DEFINITELY NOT. DAHIL ANG MGA PAGANS NA SUMASAMBA SA DIOS-DIOSAN AY WALANG FIESTA NI ST. CATHERINE OF SIENA. ANG MGA PAGANO AY HINDI TANGANG TULAD MO PARA KILALANING DIOSA SI ST. CATHERINE OF SIENA. HA, HA, HA...
ONLY CHRISTIANS CELEBRATES THE FEASTS OF SAINTS.
[If you excert your effort, your money, your time for the idol, will it lead us to salvation?]
NO. THAT IS THE REASON WHY WE DO NOT SPEND OUR MONEY AND EFFORT FOR IDOLS BUT FOR GOD, FOR CHRIST AND FOR SAINTS. LAHAT YAN BIBLICAL. MAY GOD SA BIBLE, MAY CHRIST SA BIBLE AND MAYROOONG SAINTS SA BIBLE. MERON DING PISTA SA BIBLE. KAYA IKAW ANG KAKAMPI NG DEMONIO KASI WALA KANG PISTA.
[If we claim we are apostolic church, does it come from the teaching of the apostles.]
TEACHINGS NG MGA APOSTLES AT NI CHRIST AT NI GOD THE FATHER ANG 'FEASTS' AT 'SAINTS'. KAYA BIBLICAL AT APOSTOLIC YAN. BIBLICAL DIN ANG 'PROCESSIONS' AT 'CANDLE'. TANGA KA LANG AT HINDI ALAM KUNG SAAN YAN SA BIBLIA. HA, HA, HA...
[Did the apostles leave us sort of feast and observances like this.]
YES. BECAUSE TOGETHER WITH JESUS THEY CELEBRATED THE FEASTS OF PASSOVER AND UNLEAVENED BREAD WHICH BECAME THE FEAST OF COMMUNION OR EUCHARIST. THE HOLY SPIRIT ALSO MADE SPECIAL THE FEAST OF THE PENTECOST.
I KNOW A PASTOR HERE IN OUR PLACE, HE CELEBRATED NG BONGGA ANG DEBUT NG KANYANG ANAK NA BABAE. ENGRANDE. MAY KAINAN AT LECHON. SA DEMONIO YON DI BA AYON SA PANUNTUNAN MO?
[Is there any verse in the bible that support this kind of practice.]
YES.
[Or would we rather focus on Christ the only source of salvation.]
FOCUSING ON CHRIST DOES NOT MEAN REJECTING THE FEASTS. IF GOD THE FATHER REJECTS FEASTS HE SHOULD HAVE ASKED FOR THEIR ABOLISHMENTS. BUT HE DIDNT ABOLISH THEM... JESUS HIMSELF KEPT THEM.
