Scripture does not present sacred time as an afterthought or an obsolete Jewish cultural artifact. In Leviticus 23, Yahuah gives His people eternal rhythms of work, rest, remembrance, humility, rejoicing, holy convocation, and prophetic expectation. Rooted Way Assembly observes these Appointed Times (Mo’edim) because we believe they reveal the complete redemptive master plan of the Father through Yeshua the Messiah. We do not observe them to earn salvation; salvation is the Father’s free gift through faith in the shed blood of Yeshua. Rather, we observe them because Yahuah’s instruction matters, and because each feast anchors our families in the living story of redemption: remembering what Yahuah has done, living faithfully in what He is doing now, and looking forward with joy to what He will soon accomplish at His return.
