The Messianic Feast: Moving Beyond the Ritual, Paperback

For too long, God's people have clung to a false conception of "communion." God is not seeking a communion ritual with unleavened bread, but rather a true spiritual communion with every believer, a spiritual feast. The groundbreaking winner of a gold 2014 IPPY award, The Messianic Feast solves the long-held controversy of whether the Last Supper was the Passover or if Christ was crucified on the exact day of Passover (in Jewish law, both cannot be true).

But this is just the start, as this truth then opens the door to a much larger one that reveals how the Church came to practice an unleavened-bread ritual communion instead of the true spiritual communion that God desires.

This important book also directs attention to other issues intrinsic to our understanding of the Messiah's teachings:

• It reveals the way to God's true spiritual feast, first pictured in the Tabernacle's Showbread service, then anticipated in Jewish writings as a future messianic banquet and also referenced in the bread and wine parables Jesus brought at the Last Supper. It sheds light on how God wants us to enter into this spiritual feast today, fulfilling the Feast of Tabernacles.

• It offers proof that the Last Supper teachings by Jesus were not about a ritual communion with unleavened bread, but that the bread and wine (fruit of the vine) in his parables point to the true spiritual communion God desires for all believers.

• It offers conclusive proof that the Protestant communion ritual with unleavened bread evolved from the Roman Catholic ritual and that neither ritual reflects what the Messiah or his early Jewish disciples taught.

• It reveals how three Greek language keys were instrumental in unlocking the truth on the age-old controversy mentioned above, as to whether the Last Supper was truly the Jewish Passover as most believe, or if Jesus was crucified on the 14th day when the lambs were offered, as our true Passover.

Using logic supported by historical and scriptural forensics, Tennent connects the chronological dots to reveal amazing new truths that have not previously been seen-and raises a scripture-based challenge to many deeply held traditions. For those who love God and wish to be part of His plan, The Messianic Feast is a keystone to truly understanding God's plan in these last days.
