Q14 : Keeping the Feasts

Do you keep feast days?
A14 : by Tony Garland

Regarding feast days, we uphold the teaching of the apostles:
One person esteems [one] day above another; another esteems every day [alike]. Let each be fully convinced in his own mind. He who observes the day, observes [it] to the Lord; and he who does not observe the day, to the Lord he does not observe [it]. He who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he who does not eat, to the Lord he does not eat, and gives God thanks. (Ro 14:5-6)
 
But now after you have known God, or rather are known by God, how [is it that] you turn again to the weak and beggarly elements, to which you desire again to be in bondage? You observe days and months and seasons and years. I am afraid for you, lest I have labored for you in vain. (Ga 4:9-11)
 
So let no one judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a festival or a new moon or sabbaths, which are a shadow of things to come, but the substance is of Christ. (Col 2:16-17)
In other words, those who want to keep feast days can do so (but not for righteousness). Those who do not are equally free not to do so.
