False Fire in Un-Biblical Feasts of the Church

I am referring to the dreadful increase of false passions that many in the Church today are led into by the tide of institutional and cultural forces that rage within and without the church organisations, to indulge in unscriptural endeavours with outward displays of festive celebration, pandering to the honour and glory of fellow men, receiving the same from them, and imagining doing the same on behalf of God, and for His sake - things that come to mind: 'Christmas', 'Easter', 'church anniversaries', 'retreats', even 'evangelistic' and 'youth' nights and what not.

I am utterly disgusted.  The latest run-in, being of course, my local church's anniversary event - made to run like a Chinese wedding dinner while unabashedly flaunting pretexts of evangelism and thanksgiving towards God.  Sincerely, I admit that I sense that God wishes no part in this, and just leaves us to our own devices !

What makes the dread worse for me, also, is the predicament of my 'complicity' as I oblige to uphold my responsibilites, overseeing the areas that my local church has entrusted me, that inadvertently necessitates my participation or involvement in certain aspects.

Of late, I have been gradually receiving exposure to external learning opportunities about the biblical Feasts of the Lord that God Himself instituted amongst His chosen people, and have been inclined towards the desire for the blessedness of knowledge, understanding and wisdom of such monumental hallmarks of living as a Christian in relation to the Feasts of the Lord mentioned in the Old Testament.  They are indeed meant to be put as a theological blueprint to every true follower of Yeshua, Jew and Gentile alike, as to what is to come, as the age of grace - the age of Christ's Church that we are now in, unfolds (and now, is observable to be drawing towards its climatic closure) before them, and upon their lives !

I lament the fact that the depths of richness of such fascinating truth is, I might say, deliberately left out, even thrown out by much of the Church we have today, on the bases of typical weak and equally unscriptural excuses that "we are living in the age of the new covenant" ! 

Mind the advocates of such flawed theology, because it breeds laziness in the mind of the converted, regenerated soul.  Such flawed theology is ultimately a grave danger to the soul of the Church, and must be recognised for what it is and dealt against without partiality.
