If not Christmas, then what IS the day that the Lord tells us to remember?
The day the Lord tells Israel to remember is Passover.
TAKE A LAMB
Exodus 12:1-4 The LORD said to Moses and Aaron in Egypt, “This month is to be for you the first month, the first month of your year. Tell the whole community of Israel that on the tenth day of this month each man is to take a lamb for his family, one for each household. NIV
TAKE THE LAMB AS FOOD INTO YOUR OWN BODY
Ex 12:6-8 Take care of them until the fourteenth day of the month, when all the people of the community of Israel must slaughter them at twilight. Then they are to take some of the blood and put it on the sides and tops of the doorframes of the houses where they eat the lambs. That same night they are to eat the meat roasted over the fire, along with bitter herbs, and bread made without yeast. NIV
REMEMBER THE DAY YOU DID THIS FOREVER
Ex 12:14 "This is a day you are to commemorate; for the generations to come you shall celebrate it as a festival to the LORD--a lasting ordinance. NIV
THIS IS THE BEGINNING OF YOUR DAYS!
Ex 12:1-2 Now the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,2 "This month shall be your beginning of months; it shall be the first month of the year to you NKJV
