Exodus 23:14–17, Three times thou shalt keep a feast unto me in the year.

The following events took place during the plagues of Egypt, and before the actual Passover. After seven of the ten plagues had occurred, Moses and Aaron were brought again unto Pharaoh: and he said unto them, Go, serve the Lord your God; but who are they that shall go? Notice: Who are they that shall… Continue reading The family-God’s unit of service

One of the most interesting studies on the Passover observance is found in the days of King Josiah. It intrigues us because we find ourselves in the same situation today as he did. The story begins long before the days of King Josiah, at the time of the division of the kingdom into the northern… Continue reading The Passover of warfare

By faith Moses, when he was grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter; choosing rather to share ill treatment with the people of Cod, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; accounting the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt: for he looked unto the… Continue reading By faith Moses kept the Passover

And it came to pass at midnight, that the Lord smote all the first-born in the land of Egypt, from the first-born of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the first-born of the captive that was in the dungeon; and all the first-born of cattle. Exodus 12:29. When God starts something, He does not… Continue reading The spoils of Egypt

We know a great deal about the longsuffering of God, for many times He seems to delay working out various purposes until we become quite impatient. However, the sixteenth chapter of Deuteronomy presents another side of the picture. This is one of the two chapters which gives the list of the feasts, the other being… Continue reading When God is impatient

The Epistle of Jude was written as a stern warning to the Christians in the early Church; and yet Jude is primarily speaking to the believers living in these final days before the return of the Lord. In these days of great spiritual conflict, ungodly men have crept into the Body of Christ in an… Continue reading Uncover the doubt-recover the faith

And as they were eating (the Passover feast), Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it; and he gave to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.

Satan knows his defeat is through the blood of Jesus Christ, but we need to see how far-reaching the victory of Christ really is.

And ye shall take… Continue reading None of you shall go out of the door until morning

The blood of the covenant is a most important truth in the Passover teaching. The blood of Jesus Christ, our Passover, is the means by which everything in heaven and earth is to be reconciled unto God, and one of the great instruments through which the Remnant in the end time will overcome Satan. And… Continue reading By the blood of the lamb and the word of their testimony

And Moses said, Thus saith the Lord, About midnight will I go out into the midst of Egypt: and all the first-born in the land of Egypt shall die, from the first-born of Pharaoh that sitteth upon his throne, even unto the first-born of the maidservant that is behind the mill; and all the first-born… Continue reading The midnight cry

When Israel went forth out of Egypt, The house of Jacob from a people of strange language; Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion. The sea saw it, and fled; The Jordan was driven back. The mountains skipped like rams, The little hills like lambs. What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleest? Thou… Continue reading Ye that have ears to hear

We observe the Feast of Passover—not in a literal sense of the Old Testament fulfillment, but in its New Testament application: Christ our Passover, crucified for us.

The Passover, one of the greatest miracles… Continue reading The principles of the first-born

As we keep the Feast of Passover in its spiritual significance, we live through experiences similar to the way the Israelites lived. Paul said those experiences happened to them by way of examples; and were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages are come (I Corinthians 10:11). We are those on… Continue reading Festival of freedoms

… there shall not a hoof be left behind; for thereof must we take to serve the Lord our God; and we know not with what we must serve the Lord until we come thither. Exodus 10:26. This verse occurs at the conclusion of the devastating plagues that came to judge Egypt. The tenth was… Continue reading We know not what the Lord will require of us

This message is a survey of what the Feast of Passover can really mean to us. There are many deep spiritual principles we need to understand, such as the principles of transference, substitution and appropriation, immunities, and the entering in to deliverance on the material level, which the children of Israel experienced. They not only… Continue reading A survey of the Passover

It has become increasingly important to learn how our young people, who have been in the midst of many problems and sins, can be released from their defilement and come into perfect righteousness, perfect purification.

Sometime during the Feast of Passover we need to hear again the story of the last Passover that Jesus kept with His disciples, going over it in our minds and hearts, and living it.

In the Old Testament, especially among the prophets and in the Psalms, there are many Scriptures about the Passover and about the Exodus out of the land of bondage into what God had for His people.

Have your souls been content with that which is only half a measure and half a blessing, or hast thou come to the place where thy soul is stirred within thee to believe that the Lord shall give thee the double portion, that thy cup shall run over, that thou shalt say unto the Lord,… Continue reading All of us-all the way

We are in a period of repentance, a period of sackcloth and ashes, in a sense. We are asking God to get rid of the things that are keeping us from being vessels of honor, sanctified and meet for the Master’s use, prepared for every good work. The Lord must deal with whatever it is… Continue reading Instead of the shame of bondage

By faith Moses, when he had… Continue reading By faith I have refused-by faith I have chosen
