The Day of Atonement (6 of 7)
Series: God's Special Holidays

Leviticus 23.26-32

Jesus died on Passover was buried on Unleavened Bread and arose on Firstfruits.

The Feast of Trumpets was a shadow of God's last trumpet blast announcing the return of His Son for His church. The next prophetic event on God's calendar is the second coming if Jesus.
