Use Your Life And Giving To Be An Encouragement To The Church Acts 20:1-6 1When the uproar had ended, Paul sent for the disciples and, after encouraging them, said goodbye and set out for Macedonia. 2He traveled through that area, speaking many words of encouragement to the people, and finally arrived in Greece, 3where he stayed three months. Because some Jews had plotted against him just as he was about to sail for Syria, he decided to go back through Macedonia. 4He was accompanied by Sopater son of Pyrrhus from Berea, Aristarchus and Secundus from Thessalonica, Gaius from Derbe, Timothy also, and Tychicus and Trophimus from the province of Asia. 5These men went on ahead and waited for us at Troas. 6But we sailed from Philippi after the Festival of Unleavened Bread, and five days later joined the others at Troas, where we stayed seven days.

Last time we explored God's commands regarding observance of the Passover and Feast of Unleavened Bread. This week we explore the prophetic significance of those Passover observances.

We're continuing our series on the appointed festivals of the Bible, diving into the Feast of Unleavened Bread and how this appointed time points us to Yeshua and reveals another part of the redemption story woven throughout Scripture.After the Passover, the Israelites were commanded to leave Egypt in haste. There was no time for their bread to rise, so they ate unleavened bread as they left. But what was God revealing through this command? And why did He establish seven days where His people were to remove leaven from their homes?Throughout Scripture, leaven becomes a powerful picture of sin, corruption, and what can spread throughout us. The Feast of Unleavened Bread calls God's people to remove the leaven and walk in obedience as they leave their old life behind.And when we look at this festival through the lens of Yeshua, we see an even deeper picture. Yeshua is the Bread of Life, and His sinless life points us to the unleavened bread that was set apart to God.In this episode, we'll dive into the biblical meaning of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, why God commanded His people to remove leaven, the connection between leaven and sin, and how this appointed festival foreshadows Yeshua and the freedom He brings.The appointed festivals aren't random traditions or simply “Jewish holidays.” They are part of God's story and when we look closely, we find Yeshua woven throughout them.──────────────Join our Group ChatGoodness Club Worship──────────────FOLLOW JUDITH:Website | TikTok | InstagramFOLLOW Goodness Club:Instagram──────────────promo codes:Act & Acre - JUDITHRIOS20Alice Chocolate Mushroom - JUDITH15Caraway Home - JUDITH10Cymbiotica - Shop through link for 15% offDog is Human - JUDITH25JS Health - JUDITHL15Jolie Filter - JUDITHLRIOSRevival Rugs - Shop through link for 15% offSakara - JUDITHSAKARA 25% off everythingPique - Shop through link for up to 20% off for life + a free starter kitall for His glory

Now the Festival of Unleavened Bread, called the Passover, was approaching, and the chief priests and the teachers of the law were looking for some way to get rid of Jesus, for they were afraid of the people. Then Satan entered Judas, called Iscariot, one of the Twelve. And Judas went to the chief priests and the officers of the temple guard and discussed with them how he might betray Jesus. They were delighted and agreed to give him money. He consented, and watched for an opportunity to hand Jesus over to them when no crowd was present. Luke 22:1-6 There are three illuminating ironies that we can learn from in today's text detailing Judas's betrayal plot. 1. The chief priests and scribes were planning for a salvation celebration. Passover and the feast of unleavened bread were times of sacred remembrance of the salvation of the Hebrews. It was a time when the leaders hearts were to be focused on God's deliverance, but instead they focus on killing the Savior himself. Their eyes are fixed on fear of the people and their own political and social power. When our eyes are not fixed on the majesty of Jesus, our worship of the Lord is abhorrent in His eyes. Don't fix your eyes on the ritual that represents salvation, but on the Savior himself. 2. The biggest conspirator in the story is not ever seen. Judas is not the most important character in Jesus's betrayal. We are told that Satan enters Judas. Satan is the puppet master. Satan shows up a number of times throughout the gospel story, and some of the most dangerous are when he is the most quiet. The devil is far more subtle and influential than mere overt displays of power. Make no mistake, Satan is speaking to your heart right now in ways that can make you think his ideas are your own. And note that mere physical proximity to Jesus does not inoculate you from Satan's advance. Judas and many others throughout scripture are corrupted by Satan when they are in the very physical presence of Jesus and likewise, we can be corrupted when we are physically present with the church. Satan is not scared of things of God when we are not using those things to draw us closer to Jesus. We must stay alert, as Satan is looking for our weakness. But note that Satan does not have complete power over us. He presents us with choices, but in the end we choose to yield our will to him. So we should always keep our eyes focused on God and resist the Devil. 3. Satan's big plan is all a part of God's bigger plan. The kings of the earth and the devils plot in vain. All of their plans are subject to God's will. There is nothing they can do to prevent God's will. They couldn't stop the plots against Jesus, and they still cannot stop the will and plans of God. Satan's plan is only in service to God's ultimate plan. In a world where it seems like Satan is winning, you can have faith and peace that no plan of Satan will succeed against God's bigger plan, which God calls us to be a part of. God can handle anything Satan throws against us. Call upon the name of Jesus today, and have eternal life and joy. Don't wait. His plan is perfect and cannot fail, and you are a part of it.

Yeshua has fulfilled Passover, Unleavened Bread, First-Fruits, and Pentecost, the first four Feasts of YHWH. What about the final three [fall] feasts of YHWH, the Feast of Trumpets, Yom Kippur, and Sukkot or Tabernacles? Yes!

Deuteronomy 16:1-17 presents three annual feasts — Passover, the Feast of Weeks, and the Feast of Tabernacles — as institutions of Old Covenant Israel's corporate worship, each tethering Israel's communal life to God's redemptive acts. This exposition traces how each feast was bound to the central sanctuary, expressed the theme of divine redemption, and anticipated a greater fulfillment in Christ. Main points: - the Feast of Passover and Unleavened Bread — remembrance of redemption from Egypt - the Feast of Weeks — firstfruits and freewill offering in response to God's provision - the Feast of Tabernacles — rejoicing before the Lord for the fullness of his blessing Scripture references: - Exodus 12:1-28; 23:14-17; 34:18-23 - Leviticus 23:4-44 - Numbers 28:16-31 - Deuteronomy 12:5-14; 15:1-18; 16:1-17 - John 1:29; 7:2-39 - 1 Corinthians 5:7-8; 15:20-23 - Colossians 2:16-17 - Hebrews 10:1-14 Free Grace Baptist Church — https://www.freegrace.ca Full transcript & sermon notes: https://sermons.freegrace.ca/sermons/bible-study-deuteronomy-16-1-17-the-annual-feasts-of-israel Description generated by Tyrannus.ai: https://www.tyrannus.ai

As we enter the month of Tishrei—the seventh month of the Hebrew calendar—hosts Shelley and June Volk dive deep into the spiritual significance of the Feasts of the Lord. From the fulfillment of the Spring Feasts in Jesus' first coming to the forward-looking promise of the Fall Feasts, this episode offers a roadmap for spiritual rededication. Learn about the Feast of Trumpets (Yom Teruah / Rosh Hashanah), the 10 Days of Awe, and the powerful family tradition of Tashlich, where sins are symbolically cast into the sea. Discover how these sacred, appointed times serve as a call for both Jewish and Gentile believers to align their hearts with God. Key Takeaways: The Spring Feasts Fulfilled: Passover, Unleavened Bread, First Fruits, and Pentecost (Shavuot) all directly point to Christ's sacrifice, sinless nature, resurrection, and the sending of the Holy Spirit. The Prophetic Fall Feasts: The Feast of Trumpets, Day of Atonement, and Feast of Tabernacles point toward the end times, global repentance, and the ultimate gathering of God's people. The 10 Days of Awe & Tashlich: Starting on Rosh Hashanah, this 10-day season invites believers to reflect, seek forgiveness, and symbolically cast away sins—a practice rooted in the book of Micah. A Universal Call to Renewal: The appointed times of the Lord are not strictly for one background; they offer every believer an opportunity to rededicate their life, purge hidden sins, and prepare for the Lord's return.

Believers celebrate, dedicate, and educate on their redemption. In this message from Exodus 13:1-16, God returns His people to the theme of remembrance. Knowing how quickly we forget, He gives Israel three practical “forget-me-nots”: the annual celebration of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the dedication of every firstborn, and the deliberate education of the next generation by fathers. These practices were designed so that the memory of their powerful redemption from slavery would never fade. The same call remains for us. We who have been redeemed by the blood of the Lamb must celebrate, dedicate, and educate—so that neither we nor our children forget what God has done.

Join us as we dig deeper into last Sunday's sermon from Pastor Nicholas González "The Gospel Rescued" and hear from Amy Duncan and Nya Martinez on "Promises".   Digging Deeper Questions: When have you experienced God working in a way you did not expect? How did that experience shape your faith?   Where do you see opportunities for the Gospel to keep moving forward through ordinary conversations, relationships, or moments in your life?    What helps you remember that your identity and hope are secure in Jesus, even when circumstances around you feel uncertain?   How might knowing that Jesus has rescued you change the way you approach someone who is struggling, afraid, or in need of hope?   Scripture Reading: Acts 12:1-19 1 About that time Herod the king laid violent hands on some who belonged to the church. 2 He killed James the brother of John with the sword, 3 and when he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to arrest Peter also. This was during the days of Unleavened Bread. 4 And when he had seized him, he put him in prison, delivering him over to four squads of soldiers to guard him, intending after the Passover to bring him out to the people. 5 So Peter was kept in prison, but earnest prayer for him was made to God by the church.   6 Now when Herod was about to bring him out, on that very night, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and sentries before the door were guarding the prison. 7 And behold, an angel of the Lord stood next to him, and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him, saying, "Get up quickly." And the chains fell off his hands. 8 And the angel said to him, "Dress yourself and put on your sandals." And he did so. And he said to him, "Wrap your cloak around you and follow me." 9 And he went out and followed him. He did not know that what was being done by the angel was real, but thought he was seeing a vision. 10 When they had passed the first and the second guard, they came to the iron gate leading into the city. It opened for them of its own accord, and they went out and went along one street, and immediately the angel left him. 11 When Peter came to himself, he said, "Now I am sure that the Lord has sent his angel and rescued me from the hand of Herod and from all that the Jewish people were expecting."   12 When he realized this, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John whose other name was Mark, where many were gathered together and were praying. 13 And when he knocked at the door of the gateway, a servant girl named Rhoda came to answer. 14 Recognizing Peter's voice, in her joy she did not open the gate but ran in and reported that Peter was standing at the gate. 15 They said to her, "You are out of your mind." But she kept insisting that it was so, and they kept saying, "It is his angel!" 16 But Peter continued knocking, and when they opened, they saw him and were amazed. 17 But motioning to them with his hand to be silent, he described to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, "Tell these things to James and to the brothers." Then he departed and went to another place.   18 Now when day came, there was no little disturbance among the soldiers over what had become of Peter. 19 And after Herod searched for him and did not find him, he examined the sentries and ordered that they should be put to death. Then he went down from Judea to Caesarea and spent time there.    Intro/Outro Song: "Only One" Nate Zuellig ULC Artist In Residence    "Promises" Maverick City Music CCLI Song # 7149439   CCLI License # 11254293

God commands His children to remember their salvation through regular celebration and education. In this message from Exodus 12:14-38, God establishes the Feast of Unleavened Bread as a permanent ordinance. Right after the Passover, Israel is commanded to celebrate this week-long feast of matza so that the memory of their deliverance will not fade. Through intentional celebration and the education of the next generation, God's people are to keep the reality of their salvation alive. This text reminds us that we are a forgetful people. God graciously gives us tangible ways—celebration, symbols, and teaching—to remember what He has done so that gratitude and faithfulness do not leak from our minds.

In Can We Keep the Biblical Pilgrimage Festivals Today?, we explore whether believers outside Jerusalem can faithfully keep Unleavened Bread, Shavuot, and Sukkot. Torah provides accommodations for unavoidable circumstances, and both diaspora Jews and early Christians honored these festivals wherever they lived. Scripture ReferencesDeut 16:16; Ex 23:14–17; Num 9:6–13; Deut 14:22–25; 1 Cor 5:7–8; 1 Cor 16:1–4 TakeawayYHWH desires faithful obedience. Even when literal pilgrimage is impossible, we can honor the festivals by keeping every commandment we are able to fulfill and directing our hearts toward His chosen place.

Why? We Can Question Why Something Bad Happens, But We Will Never See The World From God's Perspective: Just Remain Vertically Focused Acts 12:1-4 1It was about this time that King Herod arrested some who belonged to the church, intending to persecute them. 2He had James, the brother of John, put to death with the sword. 3When he saw that this met with approval among the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also. This happened during the Festival of Unleavened Bread. 4After arresting him, he put him in prison, handing him over to be guarded by four squads of four soldiers each. Herod intended to bring him out for public trial after the Passover.

This chapter highlights how Hezekiah led the people to celebrate the Passover and Feasts of Unleavened Bread.

Packinghouse's Wednesday night worship service from July 29, 2026. Pastor Greg teaches through Exodus 13, showing how God established lasting reminders so Israel would never forget His mighty work of redemption. The message explains the significance of consecrating the firstborn, observing the Feast of Unleavened Bread, and carrying Joseph's bones as continual reminders of God's faithfulness and deliverance from Egypt. Drawing parallels to the Lord's Supper, the study encourages believers to remember that their identity is found not in slavery to sin but in God's redeeming grace through Christ, trusting His guidance even when He leads them by the longer path. - Greg Opean - Wednesday, July 29, 2026

JULY 26 | Who Is This King? | Mark 14:12-31 ...On the first day of the Festival of Unleavened Bread, when it was customary to sacrifice the Passover lamb, Jesus' disciples asked him, “Where do you want us to go and make preparations for you to eat the Passover?”So he sent two of his disciples, telling them, “Go into the city, and a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him. Say to the owner of the house he enters, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is my guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?' He will show you a large room upstairs, furnished and ready. Make preparations for us there." The disciples left, went into the city and found things just as Jesus had told them. So they prepared the Passover.When evening came, Jesus arrived with the Twelve. While they were reclining at the table eating, he said, “Truly I tell you, one of you will betray me—one who is eating with me." They were saddened, and one by one they said to him, “Surely you don't mean me?” “It is one of the Twelve,” he replied, “one who dips bread into the bowl with me. The Son of Man will go just as it is written about him. But woe to that man who betrays the Son of Man! It would be better for him if he had not been born.”While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take it; this is my body.”Then he took a cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, and they all drank from it. “This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many,” he said to them. “Truly I tell you, I will not drink again from the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.” When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.“You will all fall away,” Jesus told them, “for it is written:“‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.'But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.” Peter declared, “Even if all fall away, I will not.” “Truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “today—yes, tonight—before the rooster crows twice you yourself will disown me three times.” But Peter insisted emphatically, “Even if I have to die with you, I will never disown you.” And all the others said the same.

It would be better for him if he had not been born.”While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take it; this is my body.”Then he took a cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, and they all drank from it. “This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many,” he said to them. “Truly I tell you, I will not drink again from the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.” When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.“You will all fall away,” Jesus told them, “for it is written:“‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.'But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.” Peter declared, “Even if all fall away, I will not.” “Truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “today—yes, tonight—before the rooster crows twice you yourself will disown me three times.” But Peter insisted emphatically, “Even if I have to die with you, I will never disown you.” And all the others said the same.

JULY 26 | Who Is This King? | Mark 14:12-31 ...On the first day of the Festival of Unleavened Bread, when it was customary to sacrifice the Passover lamb, Jesus' disciples asked him, “Where do you want us to go and make preparations for you to eat the Passover?”So he sent two of his disciples, telling them, “Go into the city, and a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him. Say to the owner of the house he enters, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is my guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?' He will show you a large room upstairs, furnished and ready. Make preparations for us there." The disciples left, went into the city and found things just as Jesus had told them. So they prepared the Passover.When evening came, Jesus arrived with the Twelve. While they were reclining at the table eating, he said, “Truly I tell you, one of you will betray me—one who is eating with me." They were saddened, and one by one they said to him, “Surely you don't mean me?” “It is one of the Twelve,” he replied, “one who dips bread into the bowl with me. The Son of Man will go just as it is written about him. But woe to that man who betrays the Son of Man! It would be better for him if he had not been born.”While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take it; this is my body.”Then he took a cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, and they all drank from it. “This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many,” he said to them. “Truly I tell you, I will not drink again from the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.” When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.“You will all fall away,” Jesus told them, “for it is written:“‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.'But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.” Peter declared, “Even if all fall away, I will not.” “Truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “today—yes, tonight—before the rooster crows twice you yourself will disown me three times.” But Peter insisted emphatically, “Even if I have to die with you, I will never disown you.” And all the others said the same.

JULY 19 | Who Is This King? | Mark 14:1-11 ...Now the Passover and the Festival of Unleavened Bread were only two days away, and the chief priests and the teachers of the law were scheming to arrest Jesus secretly and kill him. “But not during the festival,” they said, “or the people may riot.”While he was in Bethany, reclining at the table in the home of Simon the Leper, a woman came with an alabaster jar of very expensive perfume, made of pure nard. She broke the jar and poured the perfume on his head.Some of those present were saying indignantly to one another, “Why this waste of perfume? It could have been sold for more than a year's wages and the money given to the poor.” And they rebuked her harshly.“Leave her alone,” said Jesus. “Why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful thing to me. The poor you will always have with you, and you can help them any time you want. But you will not always have me. She did what she could. She poured perfume on my body beforehand to prepare for my burial. Truly I tell you, wherever the gospel is preached throughout the world, what she has done will also be told, in memory of her.”Then Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve, went to the chief priests to betray Jesus to them. They were delighted to hear this and promised to give him money. So he watched for an opportunity to hand him over.

Luke 22: 7-24 Selected Verses 7 Then came the day of Unleavened Bread on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed. 8 Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and make preparations for us to eat the Passover.”14 When the hour came, Jesus and his apostles reclined at the table. 19 And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.”20 In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.[a] 

The history of Israel series continues as we move into Judges 6 with the start of the story of Gideon. The Israelites have fallen away from the worship of Yahweh, so God sends the Midianites to oppress them. After 7 years, they cry out to God for relief and He sends Gideon...the youngest man from an insignificant family. Gideon's faith is tested as God calls him to do a difficult task before taking on the Midianites. Then, after that's done, God whittles down his force to such a small number that it will have to be recognized that God won the battle. How does that happen?

Luke 22: 1-6 As the Feast of Unleavened Bread and Passover drew near, the chief priests and scribes desperately sought a way to put Jesus to death — but feared the people. Then Satan entered Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve, who went to the religious leaders and agreed to hand Jesus over for money, quietly watching for the right moment away from the crowd.

Was the resurrection of Jesus planned long before it happened?

Thursday, 25 June 2026   saying to them, “Go into the village opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Loose them and bring them to Me. Matthew 21:2   “Saying to them, ‘You go into the village, the ‘opposite you,' and immediately you will find ‘donkey, having been bound', and ‘colt, with her'. Having loosened, you bring to Me.'” (CG)   The previous verse noted that Jesus and those with Him drew near to Jerusalem, coming to Bethphage by the Mount of Olives. At this point, it needs to be understood that Matthew is giving details categorically, not necessarily chronologically.   John's gospel includes the death and the raising of Lazarus, coming before the triumphal entry. Therefore, there is time and there are events between leaving Jericho and the events that will take place that occurred while Jesus was in this area. Understanding that, when there, He sent two disciples. Matthew next records, “Saying to them, ‘You go into the village, the ‘opposite you,'.'”   The village is not identified. Some argue it is Bethphage, the city just mentioned in verse 1. Others, because of the term “opposite you,” think it refers to Bethany. John Gill, with lively defense, suggests it is Nob, a city of the priests mentioned first in 1 Samuel 21.   Regardless, because the name is not given, it has purposefully been left out to keep the narrative typology untarnished. Once in this city, Jesus continues, saying, “and immediately you will find ‘donkey, having been bound'.”   The onus, donkey, is introduced here. It is a primary word. Donkeys are found in both testaments. The Topical Lexicon says it is “a symbol of humble service, patient endurance, and covenant blessing.” This word is found five times in the New Testament in Matthew, Luke, and John. Although onomastic scholars don't generally tie this word onus to our modern word onus, signifying a burden, it is a likely candidate for its etymological root.   This is a female donkey, a jenny. That makes her comparable to the Hebrew word athon, coming from ethan, permanence or enduring. As such, the idea of “patient endurance” noted above is written right into the Hebrew naming of this animal. Jesus continues with, “and ‘colt, with her'.”   Another new word, pólos, a foal or filly, especially a young donkey, is seen. This word is found twelve times, only in all four gospels. In Zechariah 9:9, it says of the coming Messiah that He would be “riding upon jack (khamor, a male donkey), and upon colt (ayir), ‘son, jenny'.”   The words are telling a story. The khamor, jack, is derived from khamar, to boil (but with the sense of redness as in a reddened boiling pot). The word ayir, colt, is from ur, to awaken. Thus, it is a colt that is just being broken. The athon, jenny signifies permanence.   This will be further explored when we come to verses 4 and 5, where the prophecy is explicitly cited. Of these two donkeys, it next says, “Having loosened, you bring to Me.”   Jesus is specifically directing what will be the fulfillment of this ancient prophecy. Matthew is the only one who notes two donkeys. The other gospels focus only on the one Jesus will ride on. This makes sense because Matthew's writing is directed most specifically to the Jewish people, presenting Jesus as the King of the Jews and the fulfillment of their Scriptures.   The colt would follow its mother as she led it along in this procession.   Life application: An ancient analysis of these verses from Jerome looks to the mother donkey as representing the Jewish people who had, for many hundreds of years, borne the yoke of the Law of Moses. He points to the colt as representing the Gentiles, being as yet unbroken until the time Christ sat on it.   Considering the roots of the words presented above, does that fit with what is being said and what fits into the dispensational model? Think about this as the verses continue to be evaluated. God is not just telling us surface stories of what actually took place. Rather, He is giving us deeper information in His word.   What is said and anticipated in the Old Testament through typology is confirmed in the New. The physical reality of the past is teaching us spiritual truths concerning God, the coming of Christ, the effects of His work, etc.   Many scholars call this “mystical,” as if it were a fanciful notion of made-up stuff. Some dismiss typology altogether, as if it has no use in biblical interpretation. What is wrong with such evaluations? The answer is found explicitly right in the New Testament, in passages such as 1 Corinthians 10:1-6 and Galatians 4:21-31.   In those passages, Paul says that the stories of the Old Testament were examples of Christ being presented through typology. He even says it indirectly in verses such as in 1 Corinthians 5 –   “Your glorying is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump? 7 Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us. 8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.” 1 Corinthians 5:6-8   Paul makes a one-to-one comparison between the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread to Christ and our life in Christ. God is working through types and pictures in the Old Testament, conveying information about what lies ahead. Every word and every detail of these ancient passages is given to point us to spiritual truths.   Be sure to think about what you are reading in the Old Testament. It is all pointing to Jesus, what He has done, and how it applies to us. Typology is how God is doing this.   Lord God, thank You for how Your wisdom is on display in ancient passages of Your word that seem to make no sense... until we look for Jesus. Then they fall into place, making all the sense in the world. What a treat it is for us to search out our Lord in them! Amen.  

Some Old Covenant practices of the Feast of Unleavened Bread (like sacrifices and the wave sheaf offering) are fulfilled and no longer required through Christ, key elements—such as removing leaven and eating unleavened bread—remain as spiritually meaningful practices for New Covenant believers. We need to remove sin and pride (“leaven”) from our life and replace them with sincerity and truth through Christ. This understanding comes from directly from Paul's teaching in 1 Corinthians 5 and the direct teaching of Jesus.

Was the resurrection of Jesus actually scheduled thousands of years before it happened? In this episode, Dr. Bryan Cutshall uncovers the remarkable connection between the biblical feasts of Israel and the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. What many people view as separate events in Scripture were actually part of a divine plan that had been rehearsed for centuries through God’s appointed feasts. Discover how Passover, Unleavened Bread, and Firstfruits pointed directly to Jesus and why His crucifixion and resurrection took place on the exact days these feasts prescribed. Far from being a coincidence, the events surrounding Easter reveal the precision, purpose, and faithfulness of God throughout history. In this episode, you’ll learn: • Why the resurrection was not a random event • How Passover foreshadowed Jesus as the Lamb of God • What the Bible means by “holy convocations” or holy rehearsals • How Jesus fulfilled the spring feasts with exact precision • Why the timing of the crucifixion matters • What the Feast of Firstfruits reveals about the resurrection • How God’s plan of redemption was established long before the cross If you’ve ever wondered how the Old Testament connects to the resurrection of Jesus, this teaching will give you a deeper appreciation for the accuracy of Scripture and the incredible detail of God’s redemptive plan.

This teaching series is based on the tradition of “Shabbat Shuva,” or the “Shabbat of Return,” which falls between Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur (the Day of Trumpets and the Day of Atonement). The text for this tradition is Hoshea (Hosea) chapter 14, which begins, “O Yisra'el, return to Yahweh your Elohim…” After having gone through the Spring Feasts – Passover, Unleavened Bread, and Shavuot, which are types and shadows of the Hebrews' exodus from Egypt and journey to Mt. Sinai, have you maintained a faithful, straight walk in Torah? Or have you gotten “off the path” a little or a lot? Do you sense a call to return to the path, to Yahweh? • What is meant by “crookedness”? What does crookedness cause you to do? • Regarding the call to return – return to what? From there, Rabbi Berkson takes us into Leviticus 26 to examine the reasons for returning to the Covenant. In Leviticus chapter 26, the blessings and curses associated with Yahweh's Covenant with His people are listed. • How will you be able to walk in Covenant with the Creator? From Leviticus, we go to Deuteronomy 4:25, where we see that Yahweh has an issue with His people and their idol worship. How can we relate to them today regarding ‘idol worship'? Rabbi Berkson then takes us to Deuteronomy chapter 30 to show us one of Moses' final exhortations to the people as they are about to cross over into the Promised Land. Interestingly, Yahweh, through Moses, told the people that in their future they would stray from the path they were supposed to walk and be taken from the Land by their enemies, but as they were living in a foreign land, their hearts would turn back to Yahweh, and they would return once again to possess and live in their Promised Land. • In this chapter, we see the phrase, “circumcise your heart” – what does that mean? Isn’t that just a “New Testament” concept? What is it doing left of Matthew? And then we are taken to Romans chapter 10, where Rabbi Berkson points out that the apostle Paul is clearly writing about Torah observance and, indeed, substitutes the word ‘Messiah' for the word ‘Torah' as he quotes Moses in Deuteronomy chapter 30. • What does Romans 10:4 really mean? • What is “the righteousness of belief”? • What is “the good news of the good”? • Was there “Good News” before the New Testament? Verse-by-verse and step-by-step, Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us on a journey of discovery and learning how to covenant with our Creator and Father, which, from time to time, requires us to turn around and return to His Word so that we can have a sure entrance into His Kingdom.

What if what we celebrate isn't just a moment in history—but a living reality that empowers your life today?In Godliness – The Gospel Scheme, Duane Sheriff teaches that the gospel is more than Jesus' death and resurrection—it includes His ascension and the promise it fulfilled. Jesus didn't just rise from the grave; He ascended to the Father so the Holy Spirit could be sent, empowering believers to live transformed, godly lives.Through the ancient Jewish feasts of Passover, Unleavened Bread, First Fruits, and Pentecost, we discover powerful prophetic shadows fulfilled in Christ. Passover reveals Jesus as our ultimate sacrifice, bearing God's wrath in our place. The Feast of Unleavened Bread unveils the stunning truth that we are now unleavened in God's sight—our sin buried with Christ and left in the grave. First Fruits declares Jesus as the firstborn of the resurrection, guaranteeing our new life and eternal future.Finally, we see why the ascension was necessary—not to abandon us, but to send the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, empowering us to overcome, walk in righteousness, and live as witnesses of Jesus every day.

Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) Gospel – Matthew 26:14-25 – One of the Twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests and said, “What are you willing to give me if I hand Him over to you?” They paid him thirty pieces of silver, and from that time on he looked for an opportunity to hand Him over. On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the disciples approached Jesus and said, “Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?” He said, “Go into the city to a certain man and tell him, ‘The Teacher says, “My appointed time draws near; in your house I shall celebrate the Passover with My disciples.”‘“ The disciples then did as Jesus had ordered, and prepared the Passover. When it was evening, He reclined at table with the Twelve. And while they were eating, He said, “Amen, I say to you, one of you will betray Me.” Deeply distressed at this, they began to say to Him one after another, “Surely it is not I, Lord?” He said in reply, “He who has dipped his hand into the dish with Me is the one who will betray Me.
