Summary:

What is the gift of Passover?

The gift of this Passover is the rolling away of another age.

The ultimate Passover is the Passover of Christ's crucifixion.

Show Notes:

• The Passover of Christ on the Cross ended one age and created another.

• Christ took over the same way the Captain of the Lord of Host did before Jericho.

• Christ began His ministry by proclaiming the Kingdom of God. He gave His life for it; the pattern is complete.

• God ordained and is directing everything. It is time for us to let go and He will do what He wants to do.

• Christ has already won the victory. Our whole being is required to be given to His Lordship and Kingdom. This is a wakeup call. The Captain has come to earth through a many membered body.

• He is requiring more from us, which is preparing us for the Kingdom. This is a drastic life style change.

• Christ has won the victory. Our whole is being is required to be given to His Lordship and Kingdom.

• God has ordained and directed everything. It is time for us to let go and He will do His will.

• There is something of a reality that is coming from the Lord, a purifying of His people of our human nature.

Take Away:

The gift of Passover is the rolling away of an age where we thought we had to do it.

Christ on the cross, He literally took over.

In my heart I want to refuse any credit that could put on me for what God has done.

The whole man is being required to be given to the Lord for His purposes.
