Tuesday, 29 July 2025   Then He said to them, “What man is there among you who has one sheep, and if it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will not lay hold of it and lift it out? Matthew 12:11   “And He said to them, ‘What man, he will be from you, who he will have one sheep, and if this, it should fall into a pit on the Sabbaths, not he will seize it and he will raise it?'” (CG).   In the previous verse, Matthew noted a man with a withered hand in the synagogue and that the Pharisees asked Jesus if it was lawful to heal on the Sabbath. He now records, “And He said to them, ‘What man, he will be from you, who he will have one sheep.'”   In the original, the word sheep is singular, followed by the definitive word “one.” The meaning is clear. The man possesses a single sheep, not a few or many. As such, it is more precious to him than if he had a whole flock where one could be overlooked. In such a case, it may be that this sheep was specifically kept for the Passover.   Because of the nature of the situation, the sheep would be carefully tended to. However, things happen, even to well-tended sheep. Therefore, Jesus continues, saying, “and if this, it should fall into a pit.”   The word empiptó, to fall in, is introduced. Thus, it signifies being entrapped or overwhelmed with. The idea is that the sheep has fallen into a bothunos, a hole. It is another new word, signifying a hole in the ground.   The word is connected to the verb bathunó, to be deep, and the adjective bathus, deep. As such, this isn't just a shallow hole, but a pit or cistern. It is a hole that has overwhelmed the sheep so that it cannot get out of it. With that understood, Jesus adds to the dilemma, saying it was “on the Sabbaths.”   The subject of the conversation is that of healing on the Sabbaths. There is a man right there among the Pharisees and Jesus who has a withered hand. Jesus is making a direct connection between the two.   It is true that the man has only one sheep, but the value of a sheep cannot be compared to a usable hand. And more, without a usable hand, the man probably could not lift the sheep out of the pit. Thus, there is a double dilemma, at least for him.   However, for anyone else, there is still the question concerning the sheep. What will the man do? Jesus says, “not he will seize it and he will raise it?”   The answer begs a positive response. Regardless of what is later recorded in the Talmud, and which very well may have been because of Jesus' words here concerning this matter, His very wording indicates that the answer would be positive. Yes, they would seize it and raise it.   As this is true, Jesus will make a point concerning the man that will fully answer their question.   Life application: The comparison of Jesus' words to Himself should not be overlooked. Jesus is called the Amnos tou Theou, the Lamb of God, in John 1:29. The word signifies a young sheep. Jesus was tried and crucified on a Friday, dying in the afternoon. The Bible specifically speaks of Him being interred quickly, before the Sabbath (such as in John 19:31).   Thus, He was essentially in a pit on the Sabbath. The common thinking at the time of Jesus was that someone with a sheep in a pit on the Sabbath would take hold of it and retrieve it, particularly if it was his one sheep. How much more if he needed it for the annual Passover!   This man, however, had a hand that would have precluded him from helping his sheep. Jesus, therefore, stands as a Substitute for man who cannot retrieve the sacrificial lamb. God the Father did not raise Jesus on the Sabbath. Instead, it says in Mark 16:9, “Now when He rose early on the first day of the week.”   All four gospels indicate this. The healing of the human condition, being lost in sin, was being dealt with by God through Jesus' interment over the Sabbath, He being our Passover Lamb. The irony of Jesus' words in Matthew concerning the raising of a lamb and its being connected to the healing of a man would be handled by God in the most magnificent way.   “For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. 8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him. 10 For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. 11 And not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.” Romans 5:6-11   Lord God, You gave Your only begotten Son for us. When we could not save ourselves, You sent Him to save us, not sparing Him who is of the greatest value of all. Thank You for Your goodness to us in the giving of Your Son, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.

 Exodus 12:1-13Senior Pastor, Clint PressleySunday July 27, 2025

In this sermon, Pastor Mack Jarvis teaches about the Passover as the Israelites prepared to leave Egypt and what that last plague of judgement means for us today, as it foreshadows the Passover Lamb, who would take away the sins of the world.

In this sixth installment of the UnFiltered Church sermon series from First Christian Church in Brazil, IN, we delve into 1 Corinthians 5, where Paul addresses the critical topic of church discipline. This episode unpacks the Corinthian church's struggle with pride and tolerance of sin, specifically a shocking case of sexual immorality (1 Corinthians 5:1). The sermon highlights how church discipline, rooted in love, aims to restore believers to holiness, not to condemn them. Drawing from Hebrews 12:6-11 and Matthew 18:15-17, the message emphasizes God's desire for His people to live as a holy, set-apart community, reflecting Christ's transformative grace.Key Topics Discussed:The Corinthian Crisis: Paul confronts the church's prideful tolerance of sin, particularly a man's relationship with his stepmother, which even pagans found shocking (1 Corinthians 5:1-2).What is Church Discipline?: Discipline is a loving process to correct sin, restore believers, and protect the church's integrity, as seen in Hebrews 12:6-11.Judging Rightly: Jesus' teaching in Matthew 7:1 and Matthew 18:15-17 clarifies that discipline involves confronting sin within the church, not hypocritical judgment or judging outsiders (1 Corinthians 5:9-13).The Leaven of Sin: Paul warns that unaddressed sin spreads like leaven, urging the church to live in sincerity and truth (1 Corinthians 5:6-8).Restoration and Holiness: Discipline is about shaping lives in God's grace, encouraging believers to live out their identity in Christ, who is our Passover Lamb.Timestamps:Introduction: Setting the stage for 1 Corinthians 5 in the UnFiltered Church series.The Corinthian Crisis: Exploring the shocking sin and the church's prideful response.Defining Church Discipline: Its purpose, rooted in love, with insights from Hebrews 12:6-11.Jesus' Process for Discipline: Unpacking Matthew 18:15-17's three-step approach.The Leaven of Sin: How unaddressed sin impacts the church (1 Corinthians 5:6-8).Judging Inside, Not Outside: Paul's call to accountability within the church (1 Corinthians 5:9-13).Final Challenge: Embracing discipline as a path to love, restoration, and holiness.Additional Notes:The sermon draws on quotes from Charles Spurgeon, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and John MacArthur to underscore the importance of discipline for holiness and the church's witness.Listeners are challenged to reflect on personal sin, community accountability, and living as God's chosen people.For further study, explore related sermons on 1 Corinthians at The Gospel Coalition or SermonAudio.Connect with Us:Website: fccbrazil.orgFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/fccbrazil/Email: office@fccbrazil.orgPodcast: Subscribe on Apple Podcasts or Spotify for more sermons in the UnFiltered Church series.

Pastor Charles Choe preaches on The Passover Lamb from Exodus 12:1-13

Forthe first three hours, Jesus hung on the cross, the people mocked Him, theymade fun of Him, they laughed at Him, and they yelled at Him. Thenat the sixth hour, which would have been noon, verse 44 says there was darknessover all the earth until the ninth hour. The three hours of darkness was amiracle. It was not an eclipse because that would have been impossible duringPassover because it was the season of a full moon. It was a God-sent darkness, recognizingand also amplifying the fact that the whole world was in darkness, in sin andshame, and men were loving that darkness. Even when Jesus began His ministry, Matthew4:16 tells us: “The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to themwhich sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up”. Andnow when this darkness takes place, remember it is the time of the feast of thePassover. This reminds us of Exodus 10:21-22 which tells us of the last plague whichwas a darkness that was sent over all the land of Egypt for three days. Thiswas just before the Passover lamb was slain and the blood was applied to thedoorpost in Exodus 12. When Jesus was on the cross, three hours of darknesspreceded the death of God's Passover Lamb for the sins of the world (John1:29).  Nowfor three hours, the earth is shrouded in darkness as God made His Son tobecome sin for us who knew no sin, as stated in 2 Corinthians 5:21. It was asthough all nature was sympathizing with the Creator as He suffered and died.  And so we see that Jesus was on the cross,dying on the cross as the Lamb of God in these three hours of darkness. Nowalso we believe that on the cross, Jesus, at this time, somewhere during thesethree hours of darkness, according to Matthew 27:45-46 and Mark 15:33-34, criedout, quoting from Psalm 22:1, "My God, My God, why have You forsakenMe?"  Tomorrow,I'm going to take more time to talk about how many times Jesus called HisFather. In fact, this last three hours on the cross ended when Jesus' lastprayer on the cross was, "Father, into Thy hands I commit My spirit."But during these three hours of darkness, I can't explain it totally. I cannever understand it completely, but as far as I'm concerned, as I've looked atand studied it over the years, it was during these the three hours of darkness thatJesus suffered an eternity of outer darkness, an eternity of hell.  TheBible says that hell is a place of outer darkness. Jesus went into outerdarkness. There in these three hours, the wrath of God was poured out on Him.He was bruised by God (Isaiah 53), as we talked about yesterday, for our sins.He suffered. He was separated from His Father. His favorite reference, the mostused word in the Gospel of John, is the word Father. Jesus loved His Father.His Father loved Him. But now His Father turned His back on His Son and pouredout His wrath upon Him to be crucified, to die, to shed His blood for my sinsand your sins.  Myfriend, what great love that God had. And that's why Jesus cried out, "MyGod, My God," somehow God turned His back on His Son. Again, I don'tunderstand it, but He did according to the Scripture. And then it says in verse45 that “the veil of the temple was torn in two”. The Gospel accounts ofMark and Matthew add, “from top to bottom”. My friend, this is becauseGod from heaven miraculously tore that veil that separated “The Most Holy Place”from everyone except the High Priest once a year.  Thismiracle announced to the priests and people that the way into God's presencewas open for all who would come to Him by faith through Jesus Christ (Hebrews9:1-10:25). No more do sinners need earthly temples, altars, sacrifices, orpriests, for all had now been fulfilled in the finished work of the Son of God. Areyou experiencing and enjoying this open access to our Father in heaven today? Godbless!

In today’s devotional, Whitney Hopler draws a powerful parallel between environmental cleanup and spiritual renewal. Just like small pieces of litter accumulate to cause environmental damage, “little sins”—like gossip, white lies, or procrastination—can add up to serious spiritual harm. This episode reminds us that the seemingly small compromises in our faith walk can spread through our hearts like yeast in dough, impacting our thoughts, actions, and relationship with God. But the good news? Jesus, our Passover Lamb, has already made a way for us to be cleansed and renewed. If you’re wondering how to deal with those “no big deal” moments in your spiritual life—this one’s for you. Highlights ✨ Small sins can have big spiritual consequences – just like yeast spreads through dough (1 Cor. 5:6).✨ Sin left unchecked can damage your relationship with God and others—even if it seems minor.✨ Cleaning out sin is not about legalism—it’s about living in the freedom Jesus offers.✨ Confession, repentance, and grace are the steps to remove “old yeast” from your life.✨ We need the Holy Spirit’s help to see where sin may be subtly growing.

The sermon unpacks the historical and spiritual meaning of Passover, highlighting how the temple, once a place for free worship, had become a marketplace corrupted by greed and hypocrisy. Jesus' zealous act of cleansing the temple is described not simply as anger, but as a deep expression of love for God, the temple, and the people, calling them back to genuine worship and relationship with God. The focus shifts to Jesus as the true Passover Lamb, whose sacrifice renders animal offerings obsolete and opens the way for all people to worship God freely. Jer encourages listeners to reject self-centered worship and pursue a relationship with Jesus, recognizing Him as the fulfillment of God's promise and the only means of salvation.

Behold the  PASSOVER Lamb of God!https://youtu.be/mv9QKNa2Kkc

The Passover lamb, without blemish, was a type of Christ, the Lamb of God, who was perfectly righteous and pure. Just as the Israelites were spared by the blood of the lamb, we are saved from sin and guilt by the shed blood of Jesus Christ, our Passover Lamb. The post The Lamb of God appeared first on Mt. Rose OPC.

Today,we're focusing on verses 14–16, which say, "When the hour had come, He,Jesus, sat down, and the twelve apostles with Him. Then He said to them, 'Withfervent desire I have desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.For I say to you, I will no longer eat of it until it is fulfilled in thekingdom of God.'" Most Bible scholars believe that the following verses17–20, which describe the institution of the Lord's Supper, take place at theend of the supper, so we'll come back to those verses. Toget the full glimpse of what is taking place we remember that that it is Thursdayevening, which would have been the Jewish Friday, because sundown begins thenext day for the Jewish people. We also believe these events took place in theupper room in the city of Jerusalem. Whenever I have visited Israel we always goto this location I Jerusalem, not the same building, but an upper room where wetake the Lord's Supper with our tour group. Webelieve that's what takes place in verses 17–20. But before Jesus institutedthe Lord's Supper, the Lord has the Jewish Passover supper with His disciples. Rememberthat Jesus sent Peter and John ahead to prepare for this supper. The lamb hasbeen slaughtered and roasted. Some tell us that the lamb was roasted with apomegranate stick stuck through the middle and another crossway through thelamb, then roasted over the fire for the Passover meal—a picture of the crossof Christ, suffering on a cross, crucified for our sins and your sins. Inverse 14, it says, "When the hour had come," and we've talkedabout the hour that Jesus knew would be on that day, an hour that He would goto a cross and suffer. During this time, the Passover supper takes place inthis upper room. If you want to read the details of what was said in the upperroom, go to John chapters 13, 14, 15, 16, and possibly even chapter 17, whereJesus prays His High Priestly Prayer. We know that prayer could have takenplace in the upper room or on the way to Gethsemane when He left, because John18:1 says, “When Jesus had spoken these words, He went out with His disciplesover the Brook Kidron, where there was a garden, which He and His disciplesentered.” Somethingelse to notice in John chapter 13: the first thing Jesus did when they enteredthe room, as the host of the Passover dinner, was kiss each of the disciples,which means He would have kissed Judas, whom He knew would betray Him. Somebelieve Judas sat on His left and John on His right, as described in John12:23. In the upper room, Jesus washes the disciples' feet giving them anexample of humility. Which apparently the disciples didn't learn from it. Becauselater, after the Passover meal, the disciples argue over who's going to begreatest in the kingdom (Luke 22:24-30).  InJohn 14, Jesus tells the disciples not to let their hearts be troubled and givesthem the promise of heaven, the promise that He will come again, and thepromise of the Holy Spirit. In John 15, Jesus gives the message of abiding inHim—He is the vine, and we are the branches. In John 16, He goes into detailabout the Holy Spirit, the Comforter who will come and be with them. Jesusknows the hour has come and says, “I will no longer eat of it until it isfulfilled in the kingdom of God."(v.16). Jesus no doubt said this because He knew this Passover time would fulfillall the Old Testament scriptures of the Passover Lamb. Jesus, that PassoverLamb, is the last Passover. In verses 17–20, we see the institution of theLord's Supper, which is now left for us, the church. Theseare very interesting scriptures. I trust you will get a glimpse into thesuffering of our Lord and understand what He did for you and me in a specialand unique way. Godbless!

Today,as we look at Luke chapter 22, we need to remember the setting behind thischapter, focusing on what was happening in Jerusalem during the week ofPassover, what we call Passion Week. Therewas tremendous excitement this week in Jerusalem as the Passover was takingplace. Over 100,000, perhaps 300,000 or more, Jewish pilgrims had come to thecity. They had been looking for the Messiah for centuries and were expectingthat Jesus, who performed miracles and proclaimed Himself to be the Messiah,might be the one. John the Baptist had proclaimed that He was the Messiah, andmany had repented and followed John. After John the Baptist was killed, Jesuscontinued His ministry of teaching the people, proclaiming the message of theKingdom, healing people and doing miracles, for a total period of three and ahalf years. Jesus Christ was now back in Jerusalem during this week forPassover Week knowing He would be sacrificed as the Lamb of God to take awayour sins. TheJews were excited, but the Romans were scared and worried, thinking this mightbe a time for an uprising. This is likely why Pilate and Herod were both inJerusalem, though Herod would normally be at Caesarea in his palace, and Pilatewould be relaxing in Tiberias. As Roman rulers over Jerusalem and the Jews atthe time, they were present, knowing there could be a riot or uprising. Theywere responsible to Rome to keep peace in the land. As you can imagine, it wasa very electric time. Inthe first six verses, Judas went to the chief priest, elders, scribes,Pharisees, and religious leaders, making a deal to betray Jesus secretly. Theywere afraid that an open betrayal would cause issues with the people, and theyknew the Romans needed to be involved to make it appear as though the Romans,not the religious leaders, were responsible for putting Christ to death. Thereligious leaders were already struggling with their integrity andaccountability, especially since Jesus had publicly called them hypocrites. “Thencame the Day of Unleavened Bread, when the Passover lamb must be killed” (v 7). We believe this day wasThursday, as the Jewish day begins in the evening. (The evening of this daywould have been considered Friday, the day the Passover Lamb would be killed,and the same day Jesus would be crucified.) Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, "Goand prepare the Passover for us that we may eat." Jesus already knewwho Judas was. He knew from the beginning that Judas was a thief and wouldbetray Him. Jesus knew Judas had already gone to the chief priest and betrayedHim, and He knew a plot was underway to have Him crucified. He knew becausethat's why He came to Jerusalem; He knew what awaited Him there. So,He sent Peter and John secretly, because if Judas knew, he might have hadpeople come to arrest Jesus in the upper room. Only Peter and John knew theplan. When they asked Him where to prepare, He said, "Behold, whenyou've entered the city, a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water;follow him into the house where he enters." This was unusual becausemen typically didn't carry pitchers of water; women did. Seeing a man with apitcher would stand out, signaling, "That's the guy." He must havebeen a believer. They were to say to the master of the house, "TheTeacher says to you, 'Where is the guest room where I may eat the Passover withMy disciples?'" This man, likely a believer already preparing for thePassover, would show them a large, furnished upper room. They went and found itjust as He had said and prepared the Passover. Peterand John purchased the Passover lamb, took it to the chief priests, had itsacrificed and roasted, and waited in the upper room on Thursday evening forJesus and the rest of the disciples to come. Jesus knew what was going on, yetHe still gave His life as a ransom for you and me. Oh, what a Savior! What aSavior!Godbless!

Todaywe're looking at Luke chapter 22. We believe this chapter describes the eventsthat took place on Thursday of Passover Week and what we also call PassionWeek. This is the day that Jesus would prepare for the Passover with Hisdisciples because He knew He was the Passover Lamb. Remember the story of theExodus when the Passover lamb was killed, the blood was sprinkled on thedoorpost and lintel, and the firstborn would be spared. The death angel would “passover” that house because the blood had been applied. Whata beautiful picture when Jesus shows up three and a half years earlier and Johnthe Baptist said, "Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of theworld." The next day John sees Jesus coming again and simply says, "Beholdthe Lamb of God." (John 1:29-35). Today I pray that you and I willbehold Jesus, the Passover Lamb of God, submissive and obedient to His Father andis led as a lamb to the slaughter (Isaiah 53:7 - “He was oppressed and Hewas afflicted, Yet He opened not His mouth; He was led as a lamb to theslaughter, And as a sheep before its shearers is silent, So He opened not Hismouth”). And Who takes away our sin, gives us forgiveness, heals us, andgrants us eternal life.  ThenI pray that you will behold Jesus, the Passover Lamb of God, in His beauty,courage, strength, death, burial, and resurrection. What a beautiful picture wehave of Jesus in His great love for us, fulfilling John 3:16: "For God soloved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Himwould not perish but have everlasting life." My friend, that word"whosoever" includes you and me.  I'mconvinced Jesus Christ and God love every person on planet Earth with aneternal love, and He sent His only Son so that “whosoever—anyone”—can be saved.No one is predestined to be saved or lost; we are all called to salvation. Thedifference is we must choose whether we will believe in Jesus as the Son ofGod, the Lamb of God who alone can take away our sin. When we repent, believeand receive Jesus as our only hope, we discover we are the chosen ones who believed,chosen in Christ before the foundation of the world, according to Ephesianschapter 1. We have an eternal choice that everyone has: to trust Christ orreject Him. He is Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God. Jesusknows all this. He knows why He came into the world—"not to condemn theworld but that the world through Him might be saved” (John 3:16-21). We knowmen love darkness rather than light because their deeds are evil. ThePharisees, scribes, and chief priests rejected Christ because of hypocrisy, andas Pilate points out, because of envy and jealousy. They loved the darkness of theirreligion and sin. And Jesus was infringing on their religious business. Jesusalways challenges religion and religious business. He came to seek and savethat which was lost. Today, trust Him. Duringthis time of Passover, some 100,000 to 300,000 Jewish pilgrims would flood intoJerusalem. Historian Josephus said 250,000 lambs would be slaughtered for apopulation of 500,000 to a million Jewish people. On this Thursday, Jesus ispreparing for the Passover while the scribes, Pharisees, and chief priests areplotting to kill Him. Judas, filled with Satan's animosity and hatred forChrist and God, is led to betray Jesus. This is all taking place as Jesusprepares to be that Passover Lamb. We see the preparation for the supper takeplace in verses 7 through 13 as they prepare for this special commemorative meal!Today,let us remember to get rid of the leaven of sin and bitterness in our heartsand come cleanly to the feast of the Passover with our hearts open, rememberingthe death of Jesus Christ till He comes.Godbless!

We mentioned at that time that we would look at the fulfillment of the feasts later. Today, we have that opportunity. * Today, we turn to the events of the final day prior to His crucifixion. Our text states that it was the time of the Feast of Unleavened Bread which was also referred to as Passover. It is important for us to understand the Old Testament timing and significance of this event. * For though the primary focus of this passage is upon Judas' betrayal of Jesus, there is baked within it the Jewish leaders' betrayal of YHWH at the time of a Feast which set to remind them of their redemption by YHWH. * This message was presented by Bob Corbin on June 8, 2025 at Family Bible Church in Martinez, Georgia.

Welcometo Pastor's Chat. I prerecorded the chat for today in my office in NorthCarolina, but today I'm actually in Kingsland, Georgia, celebrating mygranddaughter Kaitlyn's high school graduation. Both this chat and Sunday's wasdone there, but I still wanted to share this wonderful passage from Lukechapter 19. InLuke 19, Jesus sent the disciples to find a colt to ride into Jerusalem. Wecall this Palm Sunday, marking the last week of Jesus' ministry before Hiscrucifixion on Friday and resurrection the following Sunday. We will be goingthrough this week in the final chapters of Luke. Jesus is preparing to enterJerusalem and needs a colt. This is the only place in the New Testament whereJesus allows a celebration of Himself as the Messiah. There are several reasonsfor this. First,He's fulfilling the Old Testament prophecy in Zechariah 9, riding in on adonkey. To us, a donkey might not seem exciting, but in those days, it was abeast used for royalty, for a king to ride into town triumphantly as the crowdcelebrated. As Jesus enters Jerusalem, the crowds celebrate Him as the Messiah,shouting, “Hosanna in the highest!” In verse 35, it says, “And as he went, manyspread their clothes on the road.” Then, in verse 37, as He was drawing nearthe descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of disciples began torejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works they hadseen. Imagine,for three and a half years, Jesus has been healing the sick, raising the dead,giving sight to the blind, feeding the hungry, caring for the poor, preachingthe kingdom, and casting out demons. The word has spread, and people arelooking for a deliverer, a king to free them from Roman rule. They're hopingfor someone like Moses to lift the Roman oppression. So they praise God,saying, “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heavenand glory in the highest!”  It'sinteresting—the Gospel of Luke begins with the angel proclaiming, “Peace onearth and goodwill toward men.” Now the people are saying, “Peace in heaven andglory in the highest,” celebrating not only peace on earth but also peace inheaven with the King of glory. Because the King was rejected, there could be nopeace on earth. Instead, there would be constant bitter conflict between thekingdom of God and the kingdom of evil (Luke 12:49-53). There would be no peaceon earth but, thanks to Christ's work on the cross, there is "peace withGod" in heaven (Rom. 5:1; Col. 1:20). The appeal today is, "Be yereconciled to God!" (2 Cor. 5:17-21) SomePharisees in the crowd told Jesus, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples.” But Hereplied, “I tell you, if these should keep silent, the stones would immediatelycry out.” As He drew near, He saw the city and wept over it—a moment we'llexplore tomorrow. For now, Jesus allows this great celebration as the peopleproclaim the King has come. Thesecond reason for this celebration is that Jesus knew it would provoke theJewish leaders to a point where they could no longer tolerate Him. In verse 47,it says that as He was teaching daily in the temple, the chief priests,scribes, and leaders of the people sought to destroy Him. They had alreadytried to stone Him or throw Him off a cliff, but it wasn't time yet. Now,during Passover week, Jesus, the Passover Lamb, fulfills the Old Testamentprophecies. This is why He allows this demonstration, letting the crowdproclaim Him as the Messiah, the King who has come. God'stiming is always perfect and every prophecy concerning Jesus was fulfilled! Todaywith faith and great confidence we can believe that Jesus is indeed the Son ofGod and by believing we have life through His name!

* You can get the sermon note sheet at: http://family-bible-church.org/2025Messages/25May11.pdf * Jesus has entered into Jerusalem. He initially went into the Temple, cleared out the money-changers, and declared that the Temple was meant to be a house of prayer for all nations, but the religious establishment had made it into an emporium of thieves! * For the next four days, from His entrance into the city to His death on the cross, Jesus taught the people in the Temple. * Also on those the next four days, the religious leaders sought to trap Him and find public fault in Him or His teachings. This is important because as Psalm 118 declared, He would also be the Festal Sacrifice. * Jesus was the fulfillment of the Passover Lamb. In Exodus 12, YHWH gave specific instructions for processing of the Passover Lamb. It was supposed to be chosen on the 10th day of the month, examined for the next four days to assure that it was without blemish, and then slaughtered at twilight on the 14th day of the month. (Exodus 12:2-7) * Unknowingly, the religious leaders were certifying Jesus' fulfillment of this prophecy! * Through the rest of this chapter, we see several of these "tests" which the leaders brought to Jesus. * Each of the tests, leave of us with applications to our lives as well. * Today, we see YHWH's expectations for us in relationship to earthly authority and His heavenly authority! * This message was presented by Bob Corbin on May 11, 2025 at Family Bible Church in Martinez, Georgia.

When the wages of sin is death, the blood of the spotless lamb is the only way of salvation.

Why did John the Baptist call Jesus the Lamb of God? How does the message of John the Baptist relate to us today? Rabbi Schneider shares that John the Baptist was a real, historical person. His purpose is what ours is today: 1. A voice crying in the wilderness and, 2. John the Baptist was a forerunner of Jesus. By pointing out Jesus as the Lamb of God, he introduces Jesus as the fulfillment of the ancient Passover Lamb from Exodus chapter 12. As John the Baptist cried out in the wilderness, so are we to also cry out in the wilderness to prepare the world for Jesus' return. The New Testament is not separate from the Old Testament. It's the fulfillment of the Old Testament. The Bible is for revealing God, but is not God. Expect God to reveal Himself to you as you learn more about God through the Bible.   Visit our website at DiscoveringTheJewishJesus.com

The Triumphal Entry marks a pivotal moment in Scripture where Mark's Gospel dramatically slows down, devoting six chapters to Jesus' final week after racing through three years of ministry in just ten chapters. When Jesus sends disciples to find "a colt on which no one has ever sat," He's demonstrating both divine foreknowledge and fulfilling Zechariah's prophecy. The crowds' enthusiastic reception—laying cloaks on the road, waving palm branches, shouting "Hosanna" and "Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David"—wasn't random celebration but deliberate messianic recognition. They were quoting Psalm 118 and explicitly acknowledging Jesus as the promised Davidic king.What makes this event extraordinary is its timing and symbolism. Jesus purposefully enters Jerusalem during Passover when families selected perfect lambs for sacrifice, presenting Himself as the ultimate Passover Lamb. By entering from the Mount of Olives, He fulfills Ezekiel's vision of God's glory returning to the temple. The palm branches connect this moment to the Feast of Tabernacles, the future Millennial Kingdom, and even heavenly worship as described in Revelation.Listen as we unpack how this familiar story contains deeper spiritual meanings that reveal God's intricate plan across Scripture and time.

Journey with us through Exodus 12 as we uncover how the first Passover points to the ultimate sacrifice of Christ. Each element—the bitter herbs, unleavened bread, and lamb's blood—tells a story of suffering, urgency, and redemption. God's justice and mercy come together powerfully, foreshadowing the salvation we now have in Jesus, our true Passover Lamb. This reflection calls us to approach communion with fresh reverence and gratitude, remembering the grace that covers us.

Did you know that the same power that raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you as a Believer?In this episode of the Curt Landry Podcast, Rabbi Curt and Darrell Puckett talk about how Jesus' resurrection connects to Passover and how we are indwelled with His resurrection life through the Holy Spirit.Jesus laid down His life to take it up again. He died as the Passover Lamb and rose as the Lion of Judah, making a public spectacle of death and darkness. The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is alive and dwells in the hearts of men and women alike who believe and call on His Name. He fills us with resurrection power, restores us to our true identity in Him, and empowers us to speak, serve, and minister in His Kingdom.Join Rabbi and Darrell as they unpack the truth that death does not have the final say, why the resurrection distinguishes Christianity from other faiths, and how Jesus' triumph over death is the greatest comfort for hearts experiencing grief and loss.

In the fourth episode of "The Cross," Duane Sheriff teaches the connection between the Old Testament Passover meal and Jesus Christ as the ultimate Passover Lamb. God uses types and shadows in the Old Testament to foreshadow the cross, emphasizing that the mystery of salvation was hidden from Satan but revealed to believers.Exodus 12 demonstrates how God instituted the Passover Meal to foreshadow Christ's sacrifice. The imagery of eating the lamb and applying its blood speaks to how we must internalize Christ's sacrifice and allow it to cover every aspect of our lives. The blood of the innocent lamb protected the Israelites from judgment, just as Christ's blood covers us now. This parallel illustrates that our salvation relies not on our righteousness but on our faith in the ultimate Lamb of God.Click for FREE offer ➡️https://pastorduane.com/the-cross/

Brother Duane teaches that Easter is not about celebrating a day but embracing a living person - Jesus Christ! The message, "From Death To Life," examines how Jesus is the proof that death is not the final word in our lives. Through His death and resurrection, Jesus offers complete freedom from sin and a new life filled with power.The Old and New Testaments point to Jesus as the ultimate Passover Lamb through three components: declaring the gospel to others, receiving its truth in our hearts, and standing firm in the freedom Jesus gives us. When we place our faith in Jesus, we are completely transformed and free to live in the power of His resurrection every day!

Before time began, God had a plan—not just to forgive you, but to make you righteous through the finished work of Jesus. The Cross ended the reign of sin, and the Resurrection launched a new life where peace with God is not earned, but received. So today, we don't strive for approval—we celebrate that we already have it.

In the Torah, God healed the Israelites from snake bites when they looked up at the bronze serpent—not because it had power, but because they repented and trusted Him. As former slaves in Egypt, they knew the belief: “The thing that bites you can heal you.” Likewise, Yeshua was lifted up so we could look to Him, repent, and live. Sometimes, what's hurting you is what God uses to lift your eyes to Him.
