Perhaps read Acts of the Apostles, chapter 19 titled: "Jews and Gentiles". Here is a sample from the chapter: The Holy Spirit saw good not to impose the ceremonial law on the Gentile converts, and the mind of the apostles regarding this matter was as the mind of the Spirit of God. James presided at the council, and his final decision was, "Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them, which from among the Gentiles are turned to God." {AA 194.3}
This should enlighten us today, when those that want to take parts of the ceremonial law and impose it on the church today, such a "priests" or "feasts".
