CHRIST OUR PASSOVER

Monday, April 18, 2011
Luke 22:8-14
And He sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare the passover for us, that we may eat. And they said unto Him, "Where wilt Thou that we prepare it? And He said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in, and ye shall say into the owner of the house, "The Master saith unto thee, 'Where is the guest room, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?' "and he shall show you a large upper room furnished; ther make ready. And they went, and found as He had said unto them; and they made ready the passover. And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with Him.

Tonight, at sundown, the day of Passover will be celebrated throughout the world. The time to remember how the Children of Israel were delivered from the hand of the Egyptians by the mighty Hand of GOD. We remember how GOD passed over the houses, where the blood, of a Lamb without blemish, was applied to the door posts and the lintel. When GOD saw the Blood, the people within the house were saved from the hand of death. Where there was no Blood, the first born of the house died, including the Pharaoh's own house.

JESUS, the only begotten Son of GOD, is the Lamb without spot or blemish, who willingly laid down His life and shed His Blood for the salvation of all Humankind. By His Blood He reconciled us and by His wounds we are healed/saved.

In every aspect of the Passover, celebrated by a Seder meal, we find that JESUS has fulfilled each portion. JESUS is the Blood of Salvation, applied to the door posts and lintel of our heart. In Him and with Him and through Him we have life Eternal and are saved.
