You Are the Object

The Old Covenant feasts weren't something which the Church is meant to try to comply with.

Rather, the Old Covenant feasts modelled the things which the Church is experiencing, things which God promised before the Jews' Law was ever temporarily inserted.

An object doesn't try to look like its model. The model tried to look like the object.

An object doesn't try to become like its shadow. Its shadow looked like it.

Things like getting saved through the Blood. Things like getting baptized with the Holy Spirit. The assurance of the resurrection. These are the real things which the Feasts merely tried to model.

You are the object of all of this love. All of this was for you! Before the Law was ever inserted temporarily.
