Why don't Christians celebrate Passover? The majority don't. It's weird. Even Christ celebrated Passover.

In my former circles (highly Dispensational), it was all-the-rage to celebrate all the festivals but with a 'Messianic Jewish' spin. But Dispensationalism is error, so also the fruit from that root. Now the former things (of Moses) have passed away; "with a change in priesthood, comes a change in the law also" (Heb. 7:12). The Passover pointed to Christ (who is 'our Passover Lamb' John 1:29, 1 Cor. 5:7, [WLC 34](https://opc.org/lc.html)), and Christ has come. Why return to shadows when the substance is here (see the Epistle to the Hebrews)? He celebrated the 'last Passover' before accomplishing/completing his own 'Exodus' (Luke 9:31) and all the reality the Passover pointed to--and in the place of the Passover he gave us the Lord's Supper. 🤙

So are you going to celebrate that fulfilled prophecy in God's designated way or in some other invented way? Why not celebrate the feasts that point to the event? They are timeless and God said to keep them holy.
