Why Should Christians Celebrate the Day of Atonement (Also Known as Yom Kippur)?

An interesting article from http://www.ucg.org/ about the Day of Atonement. This follows this post about the fall of the U.S., the U.K, and Israel. For a free magazine subscription or to get the books recommended for free click HERE! or call 1-888-886- 8632.

The Day of Atonement is the fifth of God’s annual Holy Days (Leviticus 23:26-32), following shortly after the Feast of Trumpets. Observed by fasting (verse 27; compare Isaiah 58:3), which means not eating or drinking (Esther 4:16), this day portrays the human race finally becoming at one with God.
At the return of Jesus Christ, Satan the devil, who now leads all of mankind astray (Ephesians 2:2; Revelation 12:9), will be bound (Revelation 20:1-3) so all humans of all nations can be reconciled to God.
In the New Testament Luke referred to this Holy Day as “the fast” in Acts 27:9.
When the meaning of the Day of Atonement is fulfilled in the future, it will set the stage for the sixth festival of God, the Feast of Tabernacles.
