This past weekend the world celebrated a holy day, called Easter. It is meant to bring back to remembrance the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ and of course the easter bunny. The word easter comes in part from the word Eostre, or Eostrae, the Anglo-Saxon goddess of spring and fertility. This is the Easter the world honors. The enemy will and has done all in his power to water down and hide the true purpose of the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Some focus on the Resurrection, some on the easter bunny, and some on both.
But God commanded only one day to be a memorial (Holy Day) forever. The true Holy Day began with the night the Lord God of Israel passed over the children of Israel; the night He killed all the first born of the Egyptians. This last mighty plague convinced Pharoh, King of the Egyptians, to let God’s children go to serve Him.
Jesus did not partake or hold to any day called Easter. Jesus partook of Passover as commanded by his father. He ate of that Passover lamb as instructed in Exodus the 12th chapter. That same lamb, which he would become for all mankind, after his death and resurrection.
As our Passover lamb, if we eat and drink of him, death will have no strength or sting. Sin will not rule in our lives, and we will resurrect as he did into life everlasting.
Romans 6:5-7, For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. For he that is dead is freed from sin.
This is why we eat of the unleavened bread, which is his body, the body of the Passover Lamb, and drink the cup of the wine, which is his blood. The blood that covers us and protects us from the angel of death.
The true day of Passover Communion, which is in April, is fast approaching. 1 Corinthians 5:7, Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:
