Unity
Everyone came out of Egypt together. They roasted and ate the lambs by families, and the blood was applied to thousands of different doorposts, just as we now individually enter into Covenant with God at different times and places. But they came out TOGETHER, and we come out by means of ONE SACRIFICE given for all. From the view of eternity, there is only one Passover event that is the hope and salvation for us all. It is the death and ressurection of Jesus Christ. The wages of sin is death but the blood of the Lamb of God acknowledged and applied to the doorposts of our hearts delivers us from death. This is the event that the first Passover demonstrates. Jesus was crucified on the very same day of the year that all those spotless lambs were killed in Egypt. There is absolutely no coincidence in these events. When we observe the Passover together, we acknowledge this.
Exodus 12:47
The whole community of Israel must celebrate it.
There is one sacrifice, one provision for all. Whosoever believes can enter in and there is no other way. The plain truth is that we are not separate groups or denominations, we are all one. We have one Savior, one Spirit, one God and Father of all.When we refuse to gather as one at this Feast we stand as rebels against this truth.
Gather with family or gather in groups, eat new foods, eat symbolic foods, and eat bread that is made without leaven. Gather together on the same day, the day that the Lord has specifically set apart to remember our deliverance. Gather together and tell The Story, tell His Story of how He came to "redeem us with an outstretched arm and with mighty acts of judgment."
Deuteronomy 4:32-34
Ask now about the former days, long before your time, from the day God created man on the earth; ask from one end of the heavens to the other.
Has anything so great as this ever happened, or has anything like it ever been heard of?
Has any other people heard the voice of God speaking out of fire, as you have, and lived?
Has any god ever tried to take for himself one nation out of another nation, by testings, by miraculous signs and wonders, by war, by a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, or by great and awesome deeds, like all the things the LORD your God did for you in Egypt before your very eyes?
New International Version
Join with the Lord in His delight! On the Day, the very day of His deliverance!
See You At The Feast!
