How would one do that, celebrate Passover, Tabernacles, or Purim?

The Westminster Confession teaches that the old covenant feast days were part of the ceremonial law given to Israel as a "church under age". As such they are inappropriate for God's people under the new covenant.

Christians celebrate the 52 "holy days" given perpetually as part of the abiding moral law.
