A REVELATORY EXPLANATION OF PASSOVER by Vincent Pool on Saturday, April 14, 2012 at 7:13pm ·

[Vincent R. Pool, Sr.]

In The Hebrew Calendar, We Are In The Feast Of Passover, Sunset 4/6/12-Sunset 4/14/12. This Is The First Of Gods'  Three "Appointed Times", Which Also Includes The Feast Of Pentecost, And The Feast Of Tabernacles. Passover Occurs In The First Month Of The Sacred Calendar(Nissan), And Usually Takes Place In Late March, Or Early April, So It Is Also Known As A Spring Festival, Representing A Newness Of Life. Passover Is Actually A Three-Part Feast Which Totally Depicts And Portrays The Redemptive Sacrifice Of The Lord Jesus Christ Through The Shedding Of His Blood. The Pattern, Preparation, And Process Of Passover Was A Total Depiction Of The Last Few Days Of Our Saviours Natural Life(Exodus 12).(1) The Choosing Of The Lamb-Picture Jesus Triumphantly Riding Into Jerusalem On The Foal Of An Ass, Being Hailed As The Messiah, The Son Of David, The Peoples' Choice. (2) The Removal Of Leaven(which represents sin) From The House, Or The Feast Of Unleaven Bread-See Jesus(The Bread Of Life) Going Into The Temple(The House Of God), Turning Over The Tables, And Driving Out The Money Changers, Totally Cleansing And Purifying(Restoring Holiness) To The House. (3) The Examination Of The Lamb For Faults And Blemishes By The Elders-See Jesus Taken Before The Sanhedrin(Scribes, Pharisees,Elders, Fathers Of The Faith), And Even Before Pilate(Who Represented the World, Mixed Multitude, Gentiles), And Found To Be Without Fault, Therefore He Was The Only Sacrifice Qualified To Be The Redemptive Lamb Of God. See The Lamb(Jesus), Go Through The Preparation Of Sacrifice(Scourged, Beaten, Crowned With Thorns And Disrobed), And Then Finally Put Upon The Altar of Calvarys' Cross, Thus Becoming Our Substitute, Totally Consumed As Gods' Ultimate Eternal Sacrifice, That Allows Us To Cover Ourselves(Our Houses-Temples Of God) With The Blood Of Our Sacrificial Lamb, And Thus We Passover From Death To Life, Totally Redeemed From The Bondage of The Enemy(sin). (4) The Feast Of First Fruit-See Jesus Overcome The Power  Of Death, Thus Becoming The First Born(First Fruit) Of The Resurrection, And Also Of Many Brethren(Kingdom Harvest) Of Which We Represent Because Of The Newness of Life That Has Now Been Instilled In Us Through the Blood Of The Lamb. Passover And All That It Depicts and Entails, Sets Us On A Glorious Path Toward Our Ultimate Destiny In God and Our Place Of Promise! Passover Also Represents The First Court Of The Tabernacle, The Outer Court, Because All Are Invited And Welcome To Receive The Redemption, Deliverance and Healing, That Are Wrought For Us By God Through The Blood Of Our Passover Lamb! Blessings!
