Yahweh never commands the Feasts without also providing a way to attend. Through the second tithe, He built a dedicated “Feast fund” right into His law so we can travel, rejoice, and worship where He places His Name. The Sabbaths are His sign, the Feasts His joyful appointments for us.  Read More

Yahweh’s calendar is set by light, not darkness. Scripture shows the visible new-moon crescent—not the invisible conjunction—marks His months and Feasts (Gen. 1:14; Deut. 16:1).
