Passover Begins

As we prepare for the sunset this evening, the Jewish Passover begins. This was the time that Jesus sat and ate His last supper with His disciples, the evening before the passover lamb was slain.

The same night that He was betrayed, He took the bread, and broke it, and said this is my body broken for you, eat this in remembrance of me.


For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps: "WHO COMMITTED NO SIN, NOR WAS DECEIT FOUND IN HIS MOUTH"; who, when He was reviled, did not revile in return; when He suffered, He did not threaten, but committed Himself to Him who judges righteously; who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed. For you were like sheep going astray, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.
(1Pe 2:21-25)

Thank you, Lord Jesus.

All by YOUR Grace, All for YOUR Glory,
Pastor B.
