I recently had a discussion with some ministers in the Church of God, Seventh Day (COG7D). The meeting addressed why we keep the holy days and why they do not.

I would like to address a couple of their scriptural reasons for not keeping the holy days so we can better prepare ourselves for doctrines that are contrary to our own.

The first scripture their primary speaker addressed to say why they don’t need to keep the holy days was Romans 5:11. Here is what this scripture says: “Not only is this so, but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation” (NIV).
