In Rememberance of Jesus Christ

Two Parts! There are two parts! Two parts to Passover. Two parts to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and
two parts to the holy communion.
Exodus 12:1-11 (KJV)
1 And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,
2 This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to
you.
3 Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth day of this month they shall
take to them every man a lamb, according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for an house:
4 And if the household be too little for the lamb, let him and his neighbour next unto his house
take it according to the number of the souls; every man according to his eating shall make your
count for the lamb.
5 Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year: ye shall take it out from the sheep,
or from the goats:
6 And ye shall keep it up until the fourteenth day of the same month: and the whole assembly of
the congregation of Israel shall kill it in the evening.
7 And they shall take of the blood, and strike it on the two side posts and on the upper door post
of the houses, wherein they shall eat it.
8 And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; and with bitter
herbs they shall eat it.
9 Eat not of it raw, nor sodden at all with water, but roast with fire; his head with his legs, and
with the purtenance thereof.
10 And ye shall let nothing of it remain until the morning; and that which remaineth of it until the
morning ye shall burn with fire.
11 And thus shall ye eat it; with your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your
hand; and ye shall eat it in haste: it is the LORD’S passover.
Most everybody that will read this has heard of, read about, or watched the movie (The Ten
Commandments) of how God worked with a man called Moses to deliver the Children of Israel
from the persecution that they were suffering at the hands of the Egyptians. The last night that
Israel was in Egypt God set up the observance of Passover. So named because the angel of death
passed over any house that had the blood on the lintel and door posts. But, there is more to
Passover than the blood on the door posts and lintel.
The Children of Israel had been in bondage for at least three hundred years. This means that they
didn’t have the best sanitation, the best food, the best medical services. In other words, they
weren’t in the best of shape and they were facing a long and arduous journey. But, God in His
loving and infinite knowledge set up part of the Passover to take care of the needs of Israel.
Psalm 105:37 (KJV)
37 He brought them forth also with silver and gold: and there was not one feeble person among their
tribes.How did God pull this off? Not one feeble (sick) person among them? There were over a million people
that left Egypt and no one was sick, not one limped, not one had ulcers or cancer or Hepatitis or
anything else. WHY? Because God instituted the eating of the flesh of the lamb for the healing of Israel
and the blood of the lamb for the deliverance from the consequences of sin. Whoever did what Moses
told them to do reaped the results of a healthy body.
Whoever, put the blood of the lamb on the door post was delivered from the death of the first born in
their house. Believing is an action verb. Unbelief, not putting the blood of the lamb on the door posts,
suffers the consequences, in this case the death of the first born of everything and everybody in their
house.
In the Crucifixion there are, again, two parts. The broken body and the shed blood.
Did you ever ask yourself why did God allow Jesus Christ to be whipped, to be beaten. to be so abused
that he was not recognizable as a man?
Isaiah 52:14 (KJV)
14 As many were astonied at thee; his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than
the sons of men:
1 Peter 2:24 (KJV)
24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live
unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
Galatians 3:13 (KJV)
13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed
is every one that hangeth on a tree:
Have you ever read the curse of the Law? Deuteronomy chapter 28 holds the blessings and curse of the
Law. In it you will find that two thirds of the curse is sickness! Christ by his broken body has delivered us
from the curse of the Law, from sickness and disease and much more. Let me ask you, is salvation for all
that want it? Yes! Then health HAS TO BE for everyone that wants it! We have lived so far below the
standard that God has set in His Word that we go to the doctor before we go to God Almighty for
deliverance.
I am not advocating “never going to the doctor,” what I am advocating is to build your understanding
and believing of what is spiritually available to you and appropriated it.. Sometimes we may fall short of
believing to the point of receiving. If that is the case we go to the doctor quick quick. But, you have to
understand that it is available to be healed.
The one thing that most Christians get right is that the blood is for the remission of sins.
1 Corinthians 5:7 (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:
Christ our Passover – two parts- the broken body and the shed blood.Ephesians 1:7 (KJV)
7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his
grace;
Romans 5:9 (KJV)
9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
Colossians 1:14 (KJV)
14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
1 Corinthians 11:23-30 (KJV)
23 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the
same night in which he was betrayed took bread:
24 And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is
broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
This is in remembrance of Jesus Christ. This isn’t his flesh, it is in remembrance of what he
accomplished as the lamb of God, in remembrance of our deliverance from sickness. There are
other ways God can heal you, but, it is available to be healed during the holy communion.
1 Corinthians 11:25-27 (KJV)
25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new
testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.
26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come.
27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of
the body and blood of the Lord.
Unworthily means unknowingly, not having the knowledge and thus not being able to believe
God’s promises for health and healing.
1 Corinthians 11:28-30 (KJV)
28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.
29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning
the Lord’s body.
30 For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.
The curse of the Law is still in full effect to those who don’t know the truth of the deliverance
that Christ accomplished in his body. He HAS REDEEMED US from the curse of the Law.
However, because you don’t know you can’t believe and since you don’t/can’t believe you are
just like the rest of humanity, tossed about and suffering the consequences of sin even though
you are redeemed, even though you are righteous in the eyes of God, even though you have
deliverance available to you.
“Sleep” in this case means to die prematurely.
Whether you partake of Holy Communion this year or not KNOW that you are delivered from
the curse of the Law and you have remission of sins.John 3:16-17 (KJV)
16 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.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might
be saved.
