Lessons

The message on April 12, 2020 was for Easter 2020 and Wayne used the Passover feast to explain how it was one of nine feasts established with Israel to worship God properly if you are a Jew.  We learned in the Genesis study that God created and the Earth was part of that creation that was overthrown and had judgement brought upon it.  This foundation of the world had a before and a from or since with it.  In The Mystery, we learned that it was hidden in God before the foundation and that was the same timeframe Peter described of the Lamb of Christ in 1 Peter 1:18-21 when he wrote “18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; 19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: 20 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,”  God’s love was established amongst the Godhead before the foundation of the world and when God refashioned the Earth He established the firmament which positioned the stars the testify of the plan for salvation in Christ.  This Easter message encouraged us to celebrate the love of Christ as the Lamb presented to God without blemish so that through the resurrection of Christ, we will defeat death as we are saved through the operation of God.  The scripture reading was from 1 Corinthians 5:7-8 KJV

“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: 8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.”
