Exploring Passover's Significance and Symbolism

Alright, let's go to Psalms 111 and verse 10. I'm going to show you how you get the understanding of the Bible, because you don't. You lack the understanding of the scriptures. You don't know your nationality. You don't know your nationality. I'm so proud to understand, but I call it the thought breakers, because what? I want you to know how broke you really are. That's right! 10 scripts are showing you what it really meant. Could he understand that? Absolutely not. Why not? Read that again. A good understanding of all that do his commandments. They don't want you to know how great you really are. What the Passover is about. I want a brother who has not been with us for more than a year to get up and tell us what it's about. Let me hear you, bro. Alright, the Passover is about the children of Israel coming out of Egypt and God delivering us from Egypt to us. He's the Passover from Genesis. He's the Passover from Genesis. Exactly, exactly. The Passover is a memorial of what the Most High God did for us to free us out of the hand of the Egyptians. Exactly. Alright, we're going to start off in Exodus chapter 12. We're going to read the majority of the chapter. Start at verse 1. This is the book of Exodus chapter 12 and verse 1 And the Lord spake unto Moses and Aaron and the land of Egypt saying this month shall be unto you the beginning of months It shall be the first of the year to you, which year is he speaking of? What's the name of that year? I mean, month. Brother Jack. I'm sorry? A bit. How do you know that? I forgot while reading it. Okay, but you know. Who can help him out? The book of Deuteronomy, chapter 16, verse 1. Right, let's go there. Deuteronomy, chapter 16, verse 1. All right, read. This is Deuteronomy chapter 16 and verse 1. Observe the month of Abel and keep the Passover unto the Lord thy God. For in the month of Abel, the Lord thy God brought thee forth out of the sea. to Egypt by night. Exactly. So that shows that that is the first month of the year. Brother Jason asked a good question at Camp 101 a few days ago about how can we prove that there's 12 months in a year year how can we prove that it's 12 months a year go to the book of esther chapter 9 in verse 1 what high holy day did we just keep brothers and sisters exactly all right so we're going to go to the book of esther and find out uh what time period that took place let's read that this is the book of esther chapter 9 in verse 1 uh-huh now in the 12th month that is the month of dawn it says now in the what Now in the twelfth month That is the month of dawn So we know what? Right now we're currently living in that month Alright? The first month begins when? Passover Exactly, which is the month of Abed Read that again Now in the twelfth month That is the month of dawn On the thirteenth day of the same When the king's commandment and his decree Drew near to be put in execution and the day that the enemies of the Jews hoped to have power over them, though it was turned to the contrary, that the Jews had ruled over them. them that hated them and as you read down it shows that we celebrated the feast of perim with joyfulness and gladness in the same month all right so let's go back to the book of exodus 12 i believe we left off at verse 2 this is the book of exodus chapter 12 and verse 2 this month shall be unto you the beginning of months it shall be the first month of the year to you read speak ye unto all the congregation of israel say 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 a house and if the household be too little for the lamb let it him and his neighbor next to his house take it according to the number of the souls every man according to his eating shall make your account for the lamb read on your lamb shall be without blemish a male of the first year ye shall take it out from the sheep or from the goats and ye shall keep it up until the 14th day of the same month and the whole assembly of the congregation of israel shall kill it in the evening, and they shall take the blood and strike it on the two sides posts and on the upper door posts of the houses wherein they shall eat it, and they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire and unleavened bread, and with bitter herbs they shall eat it. Eat not of it raw nor sodden, and at all with water, but roast with fire and His head with his legs And with the prudence Thereof Verse 9 So I know a lot of brothers and sisters Won't be able to make it to Dallas for the Passover Atlanta or Orlando Some brothers and sisters may be staying back home Just to keep it with their families So I want to make sure Being your first time How are we to cook the Passover lamb? What you got? You got a roast over fire? Can you Pan fry it? No sir. Why not? Because they ain't no fire. I want a better answer. Why can't we not pan fry it? Pan fry it. Don't think deep. State a scripture. Why can't we pan fry it? Scripture said roast it over fire. That's why. Exactly. That's all we're looking for. So don't be creative. Just do what it say. You don't got to come up with a new. Don't cook it on the George Farmer grill. Don't do that because that's not what it says. It say roast it over fire. All right. So just in case you were wondering, could I do pan fry? Can I bake it? Can I boil it? No, you can't. You can only cook it over fire. Does everybody understand that? Yes, sir. All right, all praises. Let's read on. Verse 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. Alright. Who can break that down? What is that going into? That verse right there. Verse 10. Hands, hands. Yes, brother. Um, whatever you don't eat, you got to get rid of. We can't have any leftovers? No. Alright, y'all hear that, right? So in the morning, if you said, dang, that lamb was good last night. No, you cannot have leftovers. If you wanted it, you got to eat until you're full, and that's it. Throw the rest out. Alright? Read on. Verse 11, And thus shall ye eat 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. Brother Mordecai, remember when you asked us that question probably like two, three years ago? You don't remember that? Alright, what's the answer, brother? What is that going into? Read it again for them. I want you to break it down. Why is it saying this right here? Verse 11, And thus shall ye eat with your lawns girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand. And ye shall eat in haste. It is the Lord's Passover. Alright, you're on. You're on. So what it's saying is, first you have to eat it fast, and then you're going to eat it fast. He forgot. He forgot to understand. Brother, get your study game up, brother. I'm just playing. What you got, Joshua? What you got? Okay, so then we have to hurry up and get out of there because we're just chasing after this again. We're having a great time. That is correct. That is correct. So, it's not saying today, hurry up and cook the Passover, man. Hey, give me my staff. You don't have to do that. You can eat it with your brothers, you can laugh and enjoy the company. That's what was going on. We was doing what? Getting all the things together so we can get out of Egypt. That's why I said, eat with your staff in your hand, hurry up, and do it in haste. So the brother is correct. That's the only reason. you have to eat it in haste. Everybody understand that? Yeah, they were eating it in haste. There's no law to say that. that you can't eat standing up, can't eat sitting down. The reason why it says it right there is simply because of the situation. Say eat it in haste because we have to go. We have to flee. That's why. Read on. Verse 12. For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night and will smite all the firstborns in the land of Egypt both man and beast and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment. I will am the Lord. Breathe. And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where you are. And when I see the blood I will pass over you. And the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you when I smite the land of Egypt. Breathe. And this day shall be unto you for a memorial and ye shall keep it a feast to the Lord throughout your generations. Ye shall keep it a feast by ordinance forever. Seven days shall you eat unleavened bread. Even the first day ye shall put away leaven out of your houses. For whosoever eateth leavened bread from the first day unto the seventh day that soul shall be cut off from Israel. Verse 15. Who can break that down? What is verse 15 going into? Brother, what did they do? He's going to the unleavened bread. He's supposed to get rid of the folder packs over there. So if he didn't count even, why did you get put in there? He's supposed to have nothing unleavened in the house. What do you mean, leaven? Leaven. With leaven, right, right, right. So just bread, right? You can have like other products in your house have leaven in it, it's good. No, nothing can have leaven in it. Nothing can have leaven in it, so you need to get it all out. All right, what does it symbolize, brothers? Brother Jason? It symbolizes sin. It symbolizes sin. How do you know that? There's a priest out there. This brother right here. Who can help the brother out? Who knows, who knows? I don't It's supposed to be pretty simple. Ah yes. Is it the latest 5 and 9? No. Oh. Ah, wait wait wait, I think there is one to get. That's not the one I'm looking for. Read that, read that real quick. I think, yeah that is one too. But y'all know the one I'm looking for. Who got it? Joshua. You got it? Ah, 1 Corinthians 5 and 7. Right, that's the one I want. 1 Corinthians 5 and 7. Read yours first though brother. Alright, I got it. I think that is, I think that goes with that. Let me see. Here it comes.. It says a little lemon, lemon is the whole lot. Right, yeah that's going, that's the precept with this, so yeah. But let's read 1 Corinthians 5 and 7. This is the book of 1 Corinthians, chapter 5 and verse 7. Purge out therefore the old lemon, that ye may be a new love as ye are unleavened for even Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us therefore let us keep the feast not with old leaven neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. Y'all see that? So that's representing sin. Now, before time when we kept the feast, go to Numbers chapter 9 and verse 6. Actually start in verse 2. We're going to read down. 2 to 6. Alright? Before Christ was our Passover lamb, if you had an infirmity or if you were defiled, you could not keep the Passover. So, Alright, so let's read that. This is Numbers chapter 9 and verse 2. Let the children of Israel also keep the Passover at his appointed season. In the 14th day of this month and evening, ye shall keep it in his appointed season, according to all the rites of it, and according to all the ceremonies thereof shall ye keep it. And Moses spake unto the children of Israel, that they should keep the Passover and that they kept the Passover on the 14th day of the first month and even in the the children of Sennacherib according to all that the Lord commanded Moses so did the children of Israel here's the point verse 6 and and there were certain men who were devoured by the dead body of a man. So meaning they touched the dead body. Alright? So what is he talking about when he says that man was defiled because of the body of a dead man? What does he mean by that? Defiled according to what brothers? Hands. What you got? No. Yes brother. Um He's defiled because he touched a dead body, man. Is that in the business? I don't know exactly where. I mean, yes, we know he's defiled because he touched a dead body, but why couldn't he come amongst the people according to what laws were in place at this time? These were laws pertaining to something. Yes? Was it the temple? Right, exactly, the temple, the tabernacle, alright? Because if you were maimed, or if you had an ailment, or if you were unclean, you could not... Now what? You couldn't go into the tabernacle just like when sisters are set apart for their seven days. They could not be around. That's what that was going into. So this is the precept right here going into we have any infirmities, any impurities. No. you are not to keep the feast. That old leaven has got to go. Just like the priest said to Brother Poole, a little leaven, leaveneth the whole lump. That's what that's going into. Read again. And there were certain men who were defiled by the dead body of a man that they could not keep the Passover on that day. And they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day. You know what, read on because brothers, let me ask you before we read down. Let's Let's say something happened, right? Let's say you were trying to make it to Dallas, but you were in a cold state or country, and your flight got delayed, and you had to stay in the airport for three days, right? So you missed the feast with your brothers and sisters. What can you do according to the law if that were to happen? No, I want to hear these brothers. According to the law, what can be done to make that up? Or can you make it up? Did you sin? Did you just miss the Passover? What do we do now? I want to see some hands. I want to see at least an answer. Some type of answer. Brother F.E.O. Like, that's a law where you have to be there, so you're not in the same state of sin. Okay, the brother says that's a law, you have to be there. If you don't make it, you are in sin. Uh, yes? Uh, you have another chance to keep the Passover. He says you have another chance to keep the Passover. Where's that coming from? You read on down, that brother's smart, that brother's very smart, let's read on down. He is correct, you have another chance to keep the Passover, that's correct. Numbers chapter 9 and verse 7, and those men said unto him, We are defiled by the dead body of man. Wherefore are we kept back That we may not offer A offering of the Lord In his appointed season among the children Of Israel And Moses said unto them stand still And I will hear what the Lord Will command man concerning you. So these brothers, they wanted to do what? They wanted to be righteous. They wanted to keep the law. So Moses did what? He intervened for those brothers to the Mosiah. Read. And the Lord spake unto Moses saying, speaking to the children of Israel, saying, if any man of you or of your posterity shall be unclean by reason of a dead body or be in a journey of far off, yet he He shall keep the Passover unto the Lord. So he's saying if that does come up, they still have to keep the feast. Just at another time. That was going to give you the time. Read. The 14th day of the second month. Of the what? Of the second month. So no longer is it the first. It's what? The second month. Same day, second month. Read. And even they shall keep it. Uh-huh. And eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs. Uh-huh. They shall leave none of it unto the morning. nor break any bone of it according to all the ordinances of the Passover they shall keep it let's go back to Exodus 12 let's see verse 10 Alright. No, no, no. We were, uh, I think it was 14. 14? It was written at 14. That's 14? Uh-huh. Exodus chapter 11, verse 14. 12. 12 and 14. Exodus chapter 12 and verse 14. And this day shall be unto you for a memorial, and ye shall keep it a feast to the Lord throughout your generations. Ye shall keep it a feast by an ordinance forever. Seven days shall ye eat. 11 bread even the first day ye shall put away 11 out of your houses for whatsoever eat 11 bread from the first day unto the seventh day that soul shall be cut off from israel three and in the first day there shall be a holy convocation and in the seventh day there shall be a holy convocation to you no matter of work shall be done in them save that which every man must eat that only may be done of you alright so what is this going into brothers who can break that down it says that in the first day there shall be a holy convocation and in the seventh day there shall be a holy convocation who can break this down yes Both days will be the Sabbath day. Right, the first day will be the Sabbath and the last day will be Sabbath. So you treat it as such, no work, no buying or selling, so on and so on. Now, new brothers, y'all may ask, what's the difference between Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread? Who knows? Or is there a difference? Who knows? What you got, Brother Jack? It's the same. You say it's the same. And how so? It's the same. How do you know? It says on 9-17, about to, uh, you shall observe the feast of unleavened bread for the selfsame day. Have I brought your armies out of the land of Egypt? So, if I was, just say I'm a new brother, right? So, we want to be more specific. We want to use scriptures with the words in it. So, we're looking for something that says Passover. Alright? But no, you are correct. You are correct. It is the same. So, now we just got to find out. how we what? How do we prove it? How do we prove that Passover and Feast of the 11th are better to say? The book of Luke chapter 22 verse 1. That's right. Let's go there. Luke 22 and verse 1. Luke 22 and verse 1. this is the book of luke chapter 22 and verse 1 now the feast of unleavened bread drew nine which is called the passover y'all see that it said which is called the passover so what the passover is the first night of the feast of unleavened bread. That's what it's talking about. And after that, we ate unleavened bread for the remaining of the feast, remaining days of the feast. All right? So let's go back to Exodus 12, and I think it's 17, 16. Exodus 12 and 16, 17, okay. Exodus chapter 12 and verse 17. And ye shall observe the feast of eleven bread, for in this selfsame day have I brought... your armies out of the land of Egypt. Therefore shall ye observe this day in your generations by an ordinance forever. In the first month on the 14th day of the month at evening, ye shall eat, unleavened bread until the one and twentieth day of the month at even seven days shall there be no leaven found in your houses for whatsoever eat it that which is leavened even that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel whether he be a stranger or born in the land ye shall eat nothing leavened and all your hermitations shall ye eat unleavened bread bread. What about your, um, what about your cars, brother? Your car, you don't live in your car, so can you have bread in your car? Right, that's your habitation, that's where you at, so make sure before the feast, let's vacuum out our cars, let's clean out our cars, alright? Everywhere in your house, wherever your habitation is, let's make sure we clean that up. Alright, we on? verse 21 then moses called for all the elders of israel and said unto them draw out and take you a lamb according to your families and kill the Passover and ye shall take a bunch of hyssop and dip it in the blood that is in the basin and strike the little and the side post with the blood that is on the basin and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning for the Lord will pass through to smite the Egyptians and when he sent the blood the lentil and on the two side posts the Lord will pass over the door and will not suffer the destroyer to come in until your houses to smite you Exactly And ye shall observe this thing For an ordinance To thee and to thy sons forever And it shall come to pass When ye When ye become to the land Which the Lord will give you According as he Hath promised that ye shall keep This service And it shall come to pass When your children shall say unto you What mean ye by this service That ye ye shall say it is the sacrifice of the Lord's Passover who passed over the houses of the children of Israel and Egypt when he smoked the Egyptians and delivered our houses and the people bowed their head and worshipped. So brothers make sure y'all take notes. Make sure y'all are studied enough because a lot of y'all have children. Alright so when they ask of you why do we do this? Why do we do that? You're able to what? ... teacher exactly what this symbolizes when we keep this speech. Read on. Verse 28. And the children of Israel went away and did as the Lord had commanded Moses and Aaron. So they did. Read. And it came to pass that at midnight the Lord smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon and all the firstborn of cattle. And Pharaoh rose up in the night he and all his servants and all the Egyptians and there was a great cry in Egypt for there was not a house where there was not one dead. And he called for Moses and Aaron by night and said rise up and get you forth from among my people both ye and the children of Israel and go serve the Lord as ye have said. Also take your flocks and your herds, as ye have said, and be gone, and bless me also. And the Egyptians were urging upon the people that they might send them out of the land in haste. For they said, we be all dead men. So they all acknowledged what? That we were the children of God. So they said, alright, we see what happened. We don't want anything else to do with this. So alright, y'all can get out. Just go. Because we don't all want to die. Read on. And the people took their dough before it was leavened. Their knitting trolls being bound up in their clothes upon their shoulders. And the children of Israel did according to the word of Moses. And they barred of the Egyptians jewels of silver and jewels of gold and raiment. And the Lord gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians. Egyptians so that they lent unto them such things as they required. And they spoiled the Egyptians. And the children of Israel journeyed from Ramses to Sukkot, about 600,000 on foot that were men besides children. So that was a great multitude showing you how greatly we grow when we were in Egypt, just at 600,000 of us. All right, we're going. And amidst. multitude went up also with them and flocks and herds even very much cattle and they baked unleavened cakes of the dough which they brought forth out of Egypt for it was not leavened because they were thrust out of Egypt and could not carry neither had they prepared for themselves any victuals now the sojourning of the children of Israel who dwelt in Egypt was for much 430 years. Alright, let's stop right there. 430 years. What is also symbolic about the Passover that is soon to come? Who can put the pieces of it together? The same way we were delivered from Egypt, what is the Passover reminding us of that is going to come as well? Let me hear Elijah. The... Just coming out of home. Jeremiah 23, 7 and 8. He said 23, 7 and 8. Alright. Read that. This is the book of Jeremiah chapter 23 and verse 7. Therefore behold the days come, said the Lord, that they shall no more say, the Lord liveth, which brought up the children of Israel. out of the land of Egypt but the Lord liveth which brought up and which led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country and from all countries whither I had driven them and they shall dwell in their own land now how do we know that's not talking about actual Babylon right there how do we know that Because of Psalms 137 and 7, the daughter of Babylon, also two other components, we are still talking about the Lord who brought us out of Egypt. We're still keeping the Passover, right? So, this deliverance is going to be totally different. Go to the book of Wisdom of Solomon, chapter 5, and start at verse 1. Start at verse 1. This is the book of wisdom of Solomon chapter 5 and verse 1 before the face of such as have afflicted him And made no account of his labor. So that's what happened to us in Egypt, right? They was like, all right. Hey, we got to get them out of here. That's the real That's the God. That's the only God in heaven and earth. He is their God and not ours. So they had to come to that realization. Give me that in Exodus 15 and 3 real quick. Come right back and read down a little bit. Because that's what the Egyptians realized. They realized, hold up, he sent plagues against us and he just killed thousands of us just for these people. So they had to humble down and realize that he is not their God. He is only our God. He's the one true God. Read that real quick. Exodus chapter 15, verse 3. The Lord is a man of war. The Lord is his name. Pharaoh's chariots and his host have he cast into the sea. His chosen captains are... also are drowned in the Red Sea. Showing you what? That the Mosiah, he didn't care. He did not care about the Egyptians because they were not his people. Now go back to the book of Wisdom of Solomon, chapter 5, verse 1. Wisdom of Solomon, chapter 5, verse 1. Then shall the righteous man stand in great boldness before the face of such as have afflicted him. That's the same thing that went on. They afflicted us. They had us in hard bondage, hard labor. They oppressed us for over 400 years. That sounds real familiar. Read on. And made no account of his labors. When they see it, they shall be troubled. And that's exactly how the Egyptians were. When they saw it, it's like, hey, y'all got to go. All right? They shall be troubled with fear and shall be amazed at the strangeness of his salvation. They shall be troubled with fear. So the scripture said when the heathen see this the oppressor, when they see this when they see the most high God jacking them up and shall be amazed at the strangeness of his salvation. So at that time when we were delivered from Egypt how were we delivered? What happened? Who can walk us through it? Brother Elijah. First God told him that he could barely let us go, and he didn't. So he sent different plagues and different plagues. And after he wouldn't, then he sent a major plague that basically we had to put the... blood of the lamb on the door, which the Pharaoh... Can you condense it for us, bro? Can you condense it? Make it smaller. Okay. Appreciate you. Basically, the Pharaoh got tired of the plague, so he sent us out, and then he chased us and got swallowed by the river. Okay, that's what I want. The river. That's not normal. It's not normal The Red Sea, it was parted That's the strangeness of our salvation Who's ever seen that? At that point in time They're like, oh my goodness This is some supernatural stuff I see the Red Sea Now I see the sea's floor That's not normal right there So the Most High God held still He held still the sea Just for us And once we passed through What did he do? And killed the Egyptian right so read the verse again when they see it they shall be troubled with terrible fear and shall be amazed at the strangeness of his salvation now keep in mind we read in jeremiah 23 it says No more will we remember the salvation of Egypt. Now we're going to remember what? The strangeness of our salvation out of the land of the north. Talk about North America, out of Babylon. How are we going to get delivered, brothers and sisters? What's going to be the strangeness of our deliverance this time? Brother Alan Ice? The chariots. The chariots. How do we know that? Psalm 144, Psalm 147. Well, I mean, that's a chariot precept. but I'm talking about our deliverance. How do we know that's how we're going to get delivered? Brother Obadiah. Psalm 91. Psalm 91. Let's go to Psalm 91 in verse 1. This is the strangeness that has not happened yet. And in that day, we're going to forget what happened before. This is going to be the new Exodus. Psalms 91 in 1. This is the book of Psalms, chapter 91 in verse 1. He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High. Go ahead and write this precept down. The secret place of the Most High, Psalms 119, 114. Thank you guys for sitting. the place of the most high. Read. Shall abide under the shadow of the almighty. Read. I will say of the Lord, he is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in him will I trust. Read. Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler and from the noisome pestilence. Read. He shall cover thee with his feathers and under his wings shall thy trust. Uh-huh. His truth shall be the shield and book. Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night, nor for the arrow that flyeth by day. That's not talking about a normal bow and arrow. That's talking about nuclear missiles. That's what it's going into. At that time, there was no sustained missiles. Read. Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness. Read. Nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. That wasteth at noonday. That's talking about the waster. That's talking about nuclear missile. It speaks to that in Jeremiah. Read. A thousand shall... fall at thy side and ten thousand at thy right hand but it shall not come nigh thee only with thy eyes shall thou behold and see the reward of the wicked so our eyes we are going to see the reward of the wicked meaning the punishment of the wicked as we are caught up in those cherries we'll be what we'll be seeing Babylon on fire that's what we will be seeing according to the scriptures read because thou hast has made the Lord, which is my refuge. Even the most high, thy have predations. There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. Hello, I'm Elton Nathaniel, Israel United and Fox.

You don't know your nationality. I'm so proud to understand, but I call it the thought breakers, because what? I want you to know how broke you really are.

That's right! 10 scripts are showing you what it really meant. Could he understand that?

Absolutely not. Why not? Read that again.

A good understanding of all that do his commandments. They don't want you to know how great you really are. What the Passover is about. I want a brother who has not been with us for more than a year to get up and tell us what it's about. Let me hear you, bro.

Alright, the Passover is about the children of Israel coming out of Egypt and God delivering us from Egypt to us. He's the Passover from Genesis. He's the Passover from Genesis. Exactly, exactly. The Passover is a memorial of what the Most High God did for us to free us out of the hand of the Egyptians.

Exactly. Alright, we're going to start off in Exodus chapter 12. We're going to read the majority of the chapter. Start at verse 1. This is the book of Exodus chapter 12 and verse 1 And the Lord spake unto Moses and Aaron and the land of Egypt saying this month shall be unto you the beginning of months It shall be the first of the year to you, which year is he speaking of? What's the name of that year? I mean, month.

Brother Jack. I'm sorry? A bit.

How do you know that? I forgot while reading it. Okay, but you know. Who can help him out? The book of Deuteronomy, chapter 16, verse 1. Right, let's go there.

Deuteronomy, chapter 16, verse 1. All right, read. This is Deuteronomy chapter 16 and verse 1. Observe the month of Abel and keep the Passover unto the Lord thy God. For in the month of Abel, the Lord thy God brought thee forth out of the sea.

to Egypt by night. Exactly. So that shows that that is the first month of the year.

Brother Jason asked a good question at Camp 101 a few days ago about how can we prove that there's 12 months in a year year how can we prove that it's 12 months a year go to the book of esther chapter 9 in verse 1 what high holy day did we just keep brothers and sisters exactly all right so we're going to go to the book of esther and find out uh what time period that took place let's read that this is the book of esther chapter 9 in verse 1 uh-huh now in the 12th month that is the month of dawn it says now in the what Now in the twelfth month That is the month of dawn So we know what? Right now we're currently living in that month Alright? The first month begins when? Passover Exactly, which is the month of Abed Read that again Now in the twelfth month That is the month of dawn On the thirteenth day of the same When the king's commandment and his decree Drew near to be put in execution and the day that the enemies of the Jews hoped to have power over them, though it was turned to the contrary, that the Jews had ruled over them.

them that hated them and as you read down it shows that we celebrated the feast of perim with joyfulness and gladness in the same month all right so let's go back to the book of exodus 12 i believe we left off at verse 2 this is the book of exodus chapter 12 and verse 2 this month shall be unto you the beginning of months it shall be the first month of the year to you read speak ye unto all the congregation of israel say 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 a house and if the household be too little for the lamb let it him and his neighbor next to his house take it according to the number of the souls every man according to his eating shall make your account for the lamb read on your lamb shall be without blemish a male of the first year ye shall take it out from the sheep or from the goats and ye shall keep it up until the 14th day of the same month and the whole assembly of the congregation of israel shall kill it in the evening, and they shall take the blood and strike it on the two sides posts and on the upper door posts of the houses wherein they shall eat it, and they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire and unleavened bread, and with bitter herbs they shall eat it. Eat not of it raw nor sodden, and at all with water, but roast with fire and His head with his legs And with the prudence Thereof Verse 9 So I know a lot of brothers and sisters Won't be able to make it to Dallas for the Passover Atlanta or Orlando Some brothers and sisters may be staying back home Just to keep it with their families So I want to make sure Being your first time How are we to cook the Passover lamb? What you got? You got a roast over fire? Can you Pan fry it?

No sir. Why not? Because they ain't no fire.

I want a better answer. Why can't we not pan fry it? Pan fry it. Don't think deep. State a scripture.

Why can't we pan fry it? Scripture said roast it over fire. That's why.

Exactly. That's all we're looking for. So don't be creative.

Just do what it say. You don't got to come up with a new. Don't cook it on the George Farmer grill.

Don't do that because that's not what it says. It say roast it over fire. All right. So just in case you were wondering, could I do pan fry?

Can I bake it? Can I boil it? No, you can't. You can only cook it over fire.

Does everybody understand that? Yes, sir. All right, all praises.

Let's read on. Verse 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. Alright. Who can break that down?

What is that going into? That verse right there. Verse 10. Hands, hands. Yes, brother.

Um, whatever you don't eat, you got to get rid of. We can't have any leftovers? No.

Alright, y'all hear that, right? So in the morning, if you said, dang, that lamb was good last night. No, you cannot have leftovers. If you wanted it, you got to eat until you're full, and that's it.

Throw the rest out. Alright? Read on.

Verse 11, And thus shall ye eat 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. Brother Mordecai, remember when you asked us that question probably like two, three years ago? You don't remember that?

Alright, what's the answer, brother? What is that going into? Read it again for them. I want you to break it down. Why is it saying this right here?

Verse 11, And thus shall ye eat with your lawns girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand. And ye shall eat in haste. It is the Lord's Passover. Alright, you're on.

You're on. So what it's saying is, first you have to eat it fast, and then you're going to eat it fast. He forgot. He forgot to understand.

Brother, get your study game up, brother. I'm just playing. What you got, Joshua? What you got? Okay, so then we have to hurry up and get out of there because we're just chasing after this again.

We're having a great time. That is correct. That is correct. So, it's not saying today, hurry up and cook the Passover, man. Hey, give me my staff.

You don't have to do that. You can eat it with your brothers, you can laugh and enjoy the company. That's what was going on. We was doing what?

Getting all the things together so we can get out of Egypt. That's why I said, eat with your staff in your hand, hurry up, and do it in haste. So the brother is correct. That's the only reason.

you have to eat it in haste. Everybody understand that? Yeah, they were eating it in haste.

There's no law to say that. that you can't eat standing up, can't eat sitting down. The reason why it says it right there is simply because of the situation.

Say eat it in haste because we have to go. We have to flee. That's why.

Read on. Verse 12. For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night and will smite all the firstborns in the land of Egypt both man and beast and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment. I will am the Lord. Breathe.

And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where you are. And when I see the blood I will pass over you. And the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you when I smite the land of Egypt.

Breathe. And this day shall be unto you for a memorial and ye shall keep it a feast to the Lord throughout your generations. Ye shall keep it a feast by ordinance forever. Seven days shall you eat unleavened bread. Even the first day ye shall put away leaven out of your houses.

For whosoever eateth leavened bread from the first day unto the seventh day that soul shall be cut off from Israel. Verse 15. Who can break that down? What is verse 15 going into? Brother, what did they do?

He's going to the unleavened bread. He's supposed to get rid of the folder packs over there. So if he didn't count even, why did you get put in there? He's supposed to have nothing unleavened in the house.

What do you mean, leaven? Leaven. With leaven, right, right, right.

So just bread, right? You can have like other products in your house have leaven in it, it's good. No, nothing can have leaven in it.

Nothing can have leaven in it, so you need to get it all out. All right, what does it symbolize, brothers? Brother Jason?

It symbolizes sin. It symbolizes sin. How do you know that? There's a priest out there.

This brother right here. Who can help the brother out? Who knows, who knows?

I don't It's supposed to be pretty simple. Ah yes. Is it the latest 5 and 9?

No. Oh. Ah, wait wait wait, I think there is one to get. That's not the one I'm looking for.

Read that, read that real quick. I think, yeah that is one too. But y'all know the one I'm looking for.

Who got it? Joshua. You got it? Ah, 1 Corinthians 5 and 7. Right, that's the one I want.

1 Corinthians 5 and 7. Read yours first though brother. Alright, I got it. I think that is, I think that goes with that.

Let me see. Here it comes.. It says a little lemon, lemon is the whole lot. Right, yeah that's going, that's the precept with this, so yeah.

But let's read 1 Corinthians 5 and 7. This is the book of 1 Corinthians, chapter 5 and verse 7. Purge out therefore the old lemon, that ye may be a new love as ye are unleavened for even Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us therefore let us keep the feast not with old leaven neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. Y'all see that? So that's representing sin.

Now, before time when we kept the feast, go to Numbers chapter 9 and verse 6. Actually start in verse 2. We're going to read down. 2 to 6. Alright? Before Christ was our Passover lamb, if you had an infirmity or if you were defiled, you could not keep the Passover.

So, Alright, so let's read that. This is Numbers chapter 9 and verse 2. Let the children of Israel also keep the Passover at his appointed season. In the 14th day of this month and evening, ye shall keep it in his appointed season, according to all the rites of it, and according to all the ceremonies thereof shall ye keep it. And Moses spake unto the children of Israel, that they should keep the Passover and that they kept the Passover on the 14th day of the first month and even in the the children of Sennacherib according to all that the Lord commanded Moses so did the children of Israel here's the point verse 6 and and there were certain men who were devoured by the dead body of a man.

So meaning they touched the dead body. Alright? So what is he talking about when he says that man was defiled because of the body of a dead man? What does he mean by that?

Defiled according to what brothers? Hands. What you got? No.

Yes brother. Um He's defiled because he touched a dead body, man. Is that in the business?

I don't know exactly where. I mean, yes, we know he's defiled because he touched a dead body, but why couldn't he come amongst the people according to what laws were in place at this time? These were laws pertaining to something. Yes?

Was it the temple? Right, exactly, the temple, the tabernacle, alright? Because if you were maimed, or if you had an ailment, or if you were unclean, you could not...

Now what? You couldn't go into the tabernacle just like when sisters are set apart for their seven days. They could not be around. That's what that was going into.

So this is the precept right here going into we have any infirmities, any impurities. No. you are not to keep the feast. That old leaven has got to go. Just like the priest said to Brother Poole, a little leaven, leaveneth the whole lump.

That's what that's going into. Read again. And there were certain men who were defiled by the dead body of a man that they could not keep the Passover on that day. And they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day. You know what, read on because brothers, let me ask you before we read down.

Let's Let's say something happened, right? Let's say you were trying to make it to Dallas, but you were in a cold state or country, and your flight got delayed, and you had to stay in the airport for three days, right? So you missed the feast with your brothers and sisters. What can you do according to the law if that were to happen? No, I want to hear these brothers.

According to the law, what can be done to make that up? Or can you make it up? Did you sin? Did you just miss the Passover?

What do we do now? I want to see some hands. I want to see at least an answer. Some type of answer. Brother F.E.O. Like, that's a law where you have to be there, so you're not in the same state of sin.

Okay, the brother says that's a law, you have to be there. If you don't make it, you are in sin. Uh, yes?

Uh, you have another chance to keep the Passover. He says you have another chance to keep the Passover. Where's that coming from? You read on down, that brother's smart, that brother's very smart, let's read on down.

He is correct, you have another chance to keep the Passover, that's correct. Numbers chapter 9 and verse 7, and those men said unto him, We are defiled by the dead body of man. Wherefore are we kept back That we may not offer A offering of the Lord In his appointed season among the children Of Israel And Moses said unto them stand still And I will hear what the Lord Will command man concerning you. So these brothers, they wanted to do what?

They wanted to be righteous. They wanted to keep the law. So Moses did what? He intervened for those brothers to the Mosiah. Read.

And the Lord spake unto Moses saying, speaking to the children of Israel, saying, if any man of you or of your posterity shall be unclean by reason of a dead body or be in a journey of far off, yet he He shall keep the Passover unto the Lord. So he's saying if that does come up, they still have to keep the feast. Just at another time. That was going to give you the time.

Read. The 14th day of the second month. Of the what?

Of the second month. So no longer is it the first. It's what?

The second month. Same day, second month. Read.

And even they shall keep it. Uh-huh. And eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.

Uh-huh. They shall leave none of it unto the morning. nor break any bone of it according to all the ordinances of the Passover they shall keep it let's go back to Exodus 12 let's see verse 10 Alright. No, no, no.

We were, uh, I think it was 14. 14? It was written at 14. That's 14? Uh-huh. Exodus chapter 11, verse 14. 12. 12 and 14. Exodus chapter 12 and verse 14. And this day shall be unto you for a memorial, and ye shall keep it a feast to the Lord throughout your generations. Ye shall keep it a feast by an ordinance forever.

Seven days shall ye eat. 11 bread even the first day ye shall put away 11 out of your houses for whatsoever eat 11 bread from the first day unto the seventh day that soul shall be cut off from israel three and in the first day there shall be a holy convocation and in the seventh day there shall be a holy convocation to you no matter of work shall be done in them save that which every man must eat that only may be done of you alright so what is this going into brothers who can break that down it says that in the first day there shall be a holy convocation and in the seventh day there shall be a holy convocation who can break this down yes Both days will be the Sabbath day. Right, the first day will be the Sabbath and the last day will be Sabbath. So you treat it as such, no work, no buying or selling, so on and so on.

Now, new brothers, y'all may ask, what's the difference between Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread? Who knows? Or is there a difference? Who knows? What you got, Brother Jack?

It's the same. You say it's the same. And how so? It's the same.

How do you know? It says on 9-17, about to, uh, you shall observe the feast of unleavened bread for the selfsame day. Have I brought your armies out of the land of Egypt?

So, if I was, just say I'm a new brother, right? So, we want to be more specific. We want to use scriptures with the words in it.

So, we're looking for something that says Passover. Alright? But no, you are correct. You are correct. It is the same.

So, now we just got to find out. how we what? How do we prove it? How do we prove that Passover and Feast of the 11th are better to say?

The book of Luke chapter 22 verse 1. That's right. Let's go there. Luke 22 and verse 1. Luke 22 and verse 1. this is the book of luke chapter 22 and verse 1 now the feast of unleavened bread drew nine which is called the passover y'all see that it said which is called the passover so what the passover is the first night of the feast of unleavened bread. That's what it's talking about.

And after that, we ate unleavened bread for the remaining of the feast, remaining days of the feast. All right? So let's go back to Exodus 12, and I think it's 17, 16. Exodus 12 and 16, 17, okay.

Exodus chapter 12 and verse 17. And ye shall observe the feast of eleven bread, for in this selfsame day have I brought... your armies out of the land of Egypt. Therefore shall ye observe this day in your generations by an ordinance forever. In the first month on the 14th day of the month at evening, ye shall eat, unleavened bread until the one and twentieth day of the month at even seven days shall there be no leaven found in your houses for whatsoever eat it that which is leavened even that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel whether he be a stranger or born in the land ye shall eat nothing leavened and all your hermitations shall ye eat unleavened bread bread. What about your, um, what about your cars, brother?

Your car, you don't live in your car, so can you have bread in your car? Right, that's your habitation, that's where you at, so make sure before the feast, let's vacuum out our cars, let's clean out our cars, alright? Everywhere in your house, wherever your habitation is, let's make sure we clean that up. Alright, we on? verse 21 then moses called for all the elders of israel and said unto them draw out and take you a lamb according to your families and kill the Passover and ye shall take a bunch of hyssop and dip it in the blood that is in the basin and strike the little and the side post with the blood that is on the basin and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning for the Lord will pass through to smite the Egyptians and when he sent the blood the lentil and on the two side posts the Lord will pass over the door and will not suffer the destroyer to come in until your houses to smite you Exactly And ye shall observe this thing For an ordinance To thee and to thy sons forever And it shall come to pass When ye When ye become to the land Which the Lord will give you According as he Hath promised that ye shall keep This service And it shall come to pass When your children shall say unto you What mean ye by this service That ye ye shall say it is the sacrifice of the Lord's Passover who passed over the houses of the children of Israel and Egypt when he smoked the Egyptians and delivered our houses and the people bowed their head and worshipped.

So brothers make sure y'all take notes. Make sure y'all are studied enough because a lot of y'all have children. Alright so when they ask of you why do we do this?

Why do we do that? You're able to what? ...

teacher exactly what this symbolizes when we keep this speech. Read on. Verse 28. And the children of Israel went away and did as the Lord had commanded Moses and Aaron. So they did.

Read. And it came to pass that at midnight the Lord smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon and all the firstborn of cattle. And Pharaoh rose up in the night he and all his servants and all the Egyptians and there was a great cry in Egypt for there was not a house where there was not one dead. And he called for Moses and Aaron by night and said rise up and get you forth from among my people both ye and the children of Israel and go serve the Lord as ye have said.

Also take your flocks and your herds, as ye have said, and be gone, and bless me also. And the Egyptians were urging upon the people that they might send them out of the land in haste. For they said, we be all dead men. So they all acknowledged what?

That we were the children of God. So they said, alright, we see what happened. We don't want anything else to do with this.

So alright, y'all can get out. Just go. Because we don't all want to die. Read on. And the people took their dough before it was leavened.

Their knitting trolls being bound up in their clothes upon their shoulders. And the children of Israel did according to the word of Moses. And they barred of the Egyptians jewels of silver and jewels of gold and raiment.

And the Lord gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians. Egyptians so that they lent unto them such things as they required. And they spoiled the Egyptians.

And the children of Israel journeyed from Ramses to Sukkot, about 600,000 on foot that were men besides children. So that was a great multitude showing you how greatly we grow when we were in Egypt, just at 600,000 of us. All right, we're going.

And amidst. multitude went up also with them and flocks and herds even very much cattle and they baked unleavened cakes of the dough which they brought forth out of Egypt for it was not leavened because they were thrust out of Egypt and could not carry neither had they prepared for themselves any victuals now the sojourning of the children of Israel who dwelt in Egypt was for much 430 years. Alright, let's stop right there. 430 years.

What is also symbolic about the Passover that is soon to come? Who can put the pieces of it together? The same way we were delivered from Egypt, what is the Passover reminding us of that is going to come as well?

Let me hear Elijah. The... Just coming out of home. Jeremiah 23, 7 and 8. He said 23, 7 and 8. Alright.

Read that. This is the book of Jeremiah chapter 23 and verse 7. Therefore behold the days come, said the Lord, that they shall no more say, the Lord liveth, which brought up the children of Israel. out of the land of Egypt but the Lord liveth which brought up and which led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country and from all countries whither I had driven them and they shall dwell in their own land now how do we know that's not talking about actual Babylon right there how do we know that Because of Psalms 137 and 7, the daughter of Babylon, also two other components, we are still talking about the Lord who brought us out of Egypt. We're still keeping the Passover, right? So, this deliverance is going to be totally different.

Go to the book of Wisdom of Solomon, chapter 5, and start at verse 1. Start at verse 1. This is the book of wisdom of Solomon chapter 5 and verse 1 before the face of such as have afflicted him And made no account of his labor. So that's what happened to us in Egypt, right? They was like, all right. Hey, we got to get them out of here.

That's the real That's the God. That's the only God in heaven and earth. He is their God and not ours. So they had to come to that realization.

Give me that in Exodus 15 and 3 real quick. Come right back and read down a little bit. Because that's what the Egyptians realized. They realized, hold up, he sent plagues against us and he just killed thousands of us just for these people. So they had to humble down and realize that he is not their God.

He is only our God. He's the one true God. Read that real quick.

Exodus chapter 15, verse 3. The Lord is a man of war. The Lord is his name. Pharaoh's chariots and his host have he cast into the sea.

His chosen captains are... also are drowned in the Red Sea. Showing you what?

That the Mosiah, he didn't care. He did not care about the Egyptians because they were not his people. Now go back to the book of Wisdom of Solomon, chapter 5, verse 1. Wisdom of Solomon, chapter 5, verse 1. Then shall the righteous man stand in great boldness before the face of such as have afflicted him. That's the same thing that went on.

They afflicted us. They had us in hard bondage, hard labor. They oppressed us for over 400 years. That sounds real familiar.

Read on. And made no account of his labors. When they see it, they shall be troubled. And that's exactly how the Egyptians were. When they saw it, it's like, hey, y'all got to go.

All right? They shall be troubled with fear and shall be amazed at the strangeness of his salvation. They shall be troubled with fear. So the scripture said when the heathen see this the oppressor, when they see this when they see the most high God jacking them up and shall be amazed at the strangeness of his salvation.

So at that time when we were delivered from Egypt how were we delivered? What happened? Who can walk us through it?

Brother Elijah. First God told him that he could barely let us go, and he didn't. So he sent different plagues and different plagues. And after he wouldn't, then he sent a major plague that basically we had to put the...

blood of the lamb on the door, which the Pharaoh... Can you condense it for us, bro? Can you condense it? Make it smaller.

Okay. Appreciate you. Basically, the Pharaoh got tired of the plague, so he sent us out, and then he chased us and got swallowed by the river.

Okay, that's what I want. The river. That's not normal.

It's not normal The Red Sea, it was parted That's the strangeness of our salvation Who's ever seen that? At that point in time They're like, oh my goodness This is some supernatural stuff I see the Red Sea Now I see the sea's floor That's not normal right there So the Most High God held still He held still the sea Just for us And once we passed through What did he do? And killed the Egyptian right so read the verse again when they see it they shall be troubled with terrible fear and shall be amazed at the strangeness of his salvation now keep in mind we read in jeremiah 23 it says No more will we remember the salvation of Egypt.

Now we're going to remember what? The strangeness of our salvation out of the land of the north. Talk about North America, out of Babylon. How are we going to get delivered, brothers and sisters?

What's going to be the strangeness of our deliverance this time? Brother Alan Ice? The chariots.

The chariots. How do we know that? Psalm 144, Psalm 147. Well, I mean, that's a chariot precept. but I'm talking about our deliverance. How do we know that's how we're going to get delivered?

Brother Obadiah. Psalm 91. Psalm 91. Let's go to Psalm 91 in verse 1. This is the strangeness that has not happened yet. And in that day, we're going to forget what happened before. This is going to be the new Exodus.

Psalms 91 in 1. This is the book of Psalms, chapter 91 in verse 1. He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High. Go ahead and write this precept down. The secret place of the Most High, Psalms 119, 114. Thank you guys for sitting. the place of the most high.

Read. Shall abide under the shadow of the almighty. Read. I will say of the Lord, he is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in him will I trust.

Read. Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler and from the noisome pestilence. Read. He shall cover thee with his feathers and under his wings shall thy trust. Uh-huh.

His truth shall be the shield and book. Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night, nor for the arrow that flyeth by day. That's not talking about a normal bow and arrow. That's talking about nuclear missiles. That's what it's going into.

At that time, there was no sustained missiles. Read. Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness.

Read. Nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. That wasteth at noonday.

That's talking about the waster. That's talking about nuclear missile. It speaks to that in Jeremiah. Read.

A thousand shall... fall at thy side and ten thousand at thy right hand but it shall not come nigh thee only with thy eyes shall thou behold and see the reward of the wicked so our eyes we are going to see the reward of the wicked meaning the punishment of the wicked as we are caught up in those cherries we'll be what we'll be seeing Babylon on fire that's what we will be seeing according to the scriptures read because thou hast has made the Lord, which is my refuge. Even the most high, thy have predations. There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. Hello, I'm Elton Nathaniel, Israel United and Fox.
