Passover is a Jewish Holiday that has been observed for Millinenia.

But did you know that it has a special correlation and connection that is understood and observed by Christians?

What?

Well, Amazingly -- for thousands of years --

Passover predicted and pictured  the coming events of the Crucifixion and Resurrection of Christ and provided the reason why.

For a more detailed explanation of this

Today is Good Friday

Then said Jesus (while on the cross)

Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.

And they (the soldiers) parted his raiment, and cast lots

                     Luke 23:34 KJV

These were some of the words of Christ on the day He was Crucified.

As we approach Good Friday and Easter

"Since by man came death….by man came also the resurrection and the life…."

these are some of the words from Handel's Messiah.

As we approach Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday (aka Easter),

now is a good time to listen to them and think about these momentous events.

HERE'S THE LINK to Since By Man came Death

Why Did Jesus have to die?

 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:

That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

                                       John 3:14 -18   kjv

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.


                                        John 14: 6  kjv

Jesus said

As a follow up to yesterday's scripture

This is what Jesus said about how to obtain salvation.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, 

that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, 

but have everlasting life. 

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world;

but that the world through him might be saved. 

He that believeth on him is not condemned: 

but he that believeth not is condemned already, 

because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 
 
                        John 3 16-18       KJV    

and

“I am the way and the truth and the life. 

No one comes to the Father except through me."

                        John 14: 6  NIV

The ONLY way to salvation

For there is one God

and one Mediator between God and men,

the Man Christ Jesus,

who gave Himself a ransom for all …

              I Timothy 2: 5-6a    NKJV
