Passover

Manna—the Miraculous Bread, and the Passover

When we study the Bible, we can find three miraculous breads in it. The first is manna, the mysterious bread, which God provided for the Israelites during their journey through the wilderness. The second is the miraculous bread Jesus provided; He fed 5,000 people with five loaves of bread and two fish. The third is the bread of the Passover which Jesus referred to as His flesh. Manna fell from heaven each day for millions of people to eat during their 40-year wilderness journey. This was not a common occurrence. In that sense, manna is certainly a miraculous bread. The multiplication of the five loaves of bread and two fish is also a miracle performed by Jesus Himself. However, Christ…

The Passover Is the Truth That Saves

The earth may seem spacious to people in the world, but it is just a tiny dot in the vast universe. The Bible tells us that this earth is like a speck of dust on the scales and a drop in a bucket to God (Isa 40:15). God has established a covenant for us, humans, who live on this small earth. All the decrees, laws, and commandments, which have been given by God who runs the great universe, contain God’s will for us to enjoy eternal life and happiness in Heaven. God has restored the New Covenant Passover and allows us to keep it in this age. This is also God’s special providence and blessing. As people of Zion, we…

Passover, the Key That Opens the Gates of Heaven

There are many churches in the world that say they believe in God. However, only the Church of God celebrates the feast of the New Covenant Passover, which contains the promise of salvation. As the Bible says, “My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge” (Hos 4:6), many people do not understand the Bible correctly and regard the Passover as something trivial and unnecessary. They think that the Kingdom of Heaven will be given to them automatically if they just believe in God. Through the words of the Bible, let us study about the meaning of the Passover to discern truth from falsehood. Those Who Shut the Kingdom of Heaven in Men’s Faces When Jesus came 2,000 years ago, the…

Disaster and the Passover

We hear the news of numerous disasters on a daily basis. Among many kinds of disasters, what is the greatest disaster? To save us from a very specific disaster, God prescribed the Passover as medicine for mankind. Then, what is this disaster? Disasters occurring in the world have no effect on us after we die. However, according to the Bible, there is a disaster that lasts for eternity; even though people want to end their extreme torment and die, it is impossible. For this reason, God, who earnestly desires to save us from such a horrible disaster, has given us the New Covenant Passover. The Everlasting Disaster Many people throughout the world are suffering from unforeseen accidents and natural disasters.…

The Passover and the Truth of Salvation

Today, the world is suffering from spiritual thirst without hearing the words of God and from rampant disasters (Am 8:11; Jer 44:23). Nevertheless, some people deny God’s word and insist, “The Passover of the new covenant is not the truth of salvation. So we don’t need to celebrate it.” Jesus rebuked the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, who were religious leaders in those days, for their hypocrisy and said that the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven was not given to them. Even now, there are people like them who claim to believe in God but do not understand the will of God correctly. As the Bible says that God’s people are destroyed from lack…

The Passover and the Sign of Promise

Today there is increasing tension in the whole world because of the news about disasters that are occurring in all parts of the earth. Continuous disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, abnormal weather phenomena, in addition to wars and conflicts—the Bible already warned of these disasters thousands of years ago. It is not too much to say that those disasters are pouring out all at once in this age—the age of the Holy Spirit which we are now living in. The reason why God has restored the Passover in this age is to protect His people from disasters. At the time of the Exodus 3,500 years ago, God let the Israelites know about the Passover above all things. It…

Passover, and the Reason Disasters Pass Over

God established the Passover to destroy the devil and give His children eternal life. Whoever dwells in Zion knows well the importance of the Passover. Now, we need to consider more carefully why disasters pass over us when we celebrate the Passover. What is the true meaning of the Passover? What is the source of the power of the Passover to liberate us from disasters? Let's study over these matters through the Bible, with a humble and modest attitude before God. Escape from disasters through the blood of the Passover lamb Passover is God's appointed feast, which was established over 3500 years ago. When the Israelites lived as slaves in Egypt, God commanded Pharaoh to release Israel from Egypt. However,…

The Passover and the Seal of God

Now, there are so many disasters everywhere in the world: wars between nations, ethnic conflicts, terrors, famines, earthquakes, and deadly cold or heat or flood caused by changes in weather patterns. Whenever such things occur, people tremble with fear, not knowing who or what they should set their hearts on. The Bible already prophesied about the coming disasters and what people would do in the day of such disasters. "Though they dig down to the depths of the grave, from there my hand will take them. Though they climb up to the heavens, … Though they hide themselves on the top of Carmel, … Though they hide from me at the bottom of the sea, …"Am 9:2-9 As described in…
