PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: What role does God’s Word play in your practice of faith?
Author Tom Stapleton asserts that the practice of God’s festivals, which observe seven Holy Days during three annual gatherings, are a compacted prophecy of gospel and have true purpose for us today. “They have brought clarity and fulfillment beyond expectation,” the author says. “God’s festivals are central to the message Jesus talked about in Matthew 17:11 when He said, ‘Elijah truly is coming first and will restore all things.'”
Stapleton presents a controversial yet Biblically developed argument proposing that organized church has denigrated God’s original schedule into the occasions we know today as Christmas and Easter. While commemorative, these annual festivals are not given to us by God; they were added on. However, God has given us festivals that are both commemorative and prophetic. Leviticus 23:2 (ERV) “…You will announce the LORD’s chosen festivals as holy meetings. These are my special festivals.”
- Festival of Unleavened Bread including Passover (spring)
- Pentecost (summer)
- Feast of Trumpets, Day of Atonement, and Feast of Tabernacles (fall)
The practice of observing God’s festivals was never meant to end,” says Stapleton. “God is inviting those who will worship Hm in spirit and in truth to meet with Him on His time schedule. His festivals provide blessings and benefits for all who choose to celebrate them.”
ABOUT THE SPEAKER: Tom Stapleton has been a student and teacher of God’s word since 1984. Right from the onset he had a keen interest in end times Bible prophecy, and specifically the books of Daniel and Revelation. He has done something unique – that is tie the fulfillment of God’s annual festivals into the prophecies of Daniel and Revelation. This missing puzzle piece has given a much deeper understanding to the specified time periods that will occur at the close of this earth’s history. Tom’s understanding is now being sought after by many all over the world. Contact Tom if you would like to sponsor an end times Bible prophecy seminar in your area.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION: What is the difference between the green book and the blue book?
The festivals are a revelation of God’s plan of salvation, therefore making them important to any church in any age, and the reason why He gave His people, Israel, His calendar.
The book Restoration of God’s Festivals (the green book) is a thorough investigation of the purpose in the festivals for God’s church today. This book was written primarily for those of Seventh-Day Adventist persuasion. It contains materials written by theologians from the SDA church to demonstrate that this was not contrary to the teachings of the church, but rather enhance the church’s teachings, especially the sanctuary doctrine. I am sad to say that this book has brought me into conflict with the leadership of the Adventist church. However, I felt that I must stand for Bible truth and not the teachings of any one denomination.
After writing this book, those who read it encouraged me to write a book for non-SDAs, those of any faith, omitting the SDA references. Hence, the book Reclaiming God’s Festivals (the blue book). This book is written strictly using the Bible with a little history thrown in to demonstrate that the early church continued to keep the festivals well into the fourth and fifth centuries AD. It shows that the Catholic Church was responsible for carrying forward the change in not only the Sabbath but the festivals of God, replacing them with their festivals in Sunday, Christmas, and Easter, and making them obligatory to the Catholic version of the New Testament Christian Church, which is in direct conflict with the Biblical version of the New Testament Christian Church.
So in short, the green book is designed for Seventh-Day Adventists, and the blue book is designed for Christians of any denomination.
