Why don't Christians celebrate Passover They use Passover to figure out when to have Easter But why don't they have a Seder?

The Christian equivalent of Passover is Easter where Jesus is the sacrificial lamb and the Lord's Supper is the Seder. Christians believe the Old Testament feasts were all pointing to an ultimate fulfillment in Christ. The Old Testament feast days were broken up into 2 cycles-- the spring season are 4 feasts grouped together taking place within 50 days--a summer break to prepare for the fall harvest season and the 3 fall feasts. The 4 spring feasts found in Lev.23 were fulfilled in Jesus' first coming and He fulfills the three autumn holidays in his 2nd coming. This why they are grouped in this order. The fall feasts are, feast of trumpets, Day of atonement, feasts of Booths or gatherings, all to be fulfilled in his 2nd coming (taking place in a 2 week period). Jesus fulfilled these feasts by his life and ministry. The unleaven bread- was Christ' life with no sin. The Passover - Christ sacrificed as the lamb. The first-fruits- His resurrection 3 days after the Passover. Pentecost-Jesus sending the Holy Spirit within 50 days of the Passover. All of these were fulfilled in Jesus' first coming. Jesus fulfilled the 4 spring holidays in his first coming and fulfills the three autumn feasts in his 2nd coming. The fall feasts are, feast of trumpets, Day of atonement, feasts of Booths or ingatherings, which takes place in a 2 week period

What month was Pentecost celebrated in the Bible?

Pentecost means fiftieth and it fell on what we would call Sunday, seven weeks after the Saturday Sabbath of Passover. Referring to Exodus 12, on the tenth day of their first month (Abib) the Jewish families were to select the Passover lamb which would be killed and prepared on the 14th day. So, through all the years of its observance, it would fall on different days of the week. In AD-30 when Jesus was crucified, what was called the high Sabbath of Passover(John 19:31) fell on Friday. Jesus and the thieves were crucified on Thursday and that is why it was requested that their legs be broken to hasten death so they could be buried before that high Sabbath (Friday). Jesus arose on the third day. Sunday, the first day of the week. The church was established on the first day of the week too. It wasn't 40 days after the ascension as one commenter put it, here. It was just 10 days.


Which event in Jesus life do we think of in lent?

Lent, the forty days before Easter, mainly commemorates Jesus' last days on Earth, his passion, and his crucifixion. The last week of Lent is especially meaningful. Starting with Palm Sunday, the Sunday before Easter, on which Jesus made his triumphant entry into Jerusalem on a colt, the week celebrates Jesus' final moments. Ash Wednesday was the day the day of the Passover Feast with Jesus and his disciples, and Good Friday was the day Jesus died, taking away all our sins. Finally, he rose again on Easter, conquering death and guaranteeing all of us eternal life with him.
