The Continuing Church of God is pleased to announce this sermon from its ContinuingCOG channel:
Which Spring Days should Christians observe?
What days in the Spring did Jesus, His disciples and early Christians keep? Did they keep Passover, the Days of Unleavened Bread, and Pentecost? Did they keep Mardi Gras, Carnaval, Ash Wednesday, Lent, or Easter? Did they use unleavened bread and wine or leavened bread with grape juice? Did they break unleavened bread or use round hosts? Which is the proper date for Jesus’ Passover? Are weekly observances of Passover proper? Does it matter which days Christians keep? Dr. Thiel answers these questions and more by citing scriptures and historical sources.
