7/19/10 From YahuShua HaMashiach, Jesus The Christ, Our Lord and Savior - A Letter Given to Timothy, For Suzanne, And For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear

The following was brought before The Lord, on Suzanne’s behalf... She said: “I have been thinking of plastering the sides of my truck with something like, ‘Adoption is the Loving Option’. I have not heard either yes or no. The reason I am asking you, to ask The Lord, is that I do not want to take away from what is already on the back tailgate of my truck (the Trumpet Call website sign)”.

Thus says The Lord: Regarding the sign and trumpet, by which you reveal Me and My Word to others, detract not from it... Let it stand alone, a bright and shining lamp post, an ensign for this sleeping generation.
Your intentions are well and good, and the intent of your heart is well pleasing in My eyes, yet trumpet My Word only. For in My word is this cause brought to light, with many strong and fierce warnings. And those who receive My words, concerning abortion, will indeed seek other options, choosing life. And those who reject My word and destroy My gifts, those who murder the little ones, they will receive full recompense for their error!... I AM THE LORD!

Therefore, again I tell you, trumpet My word only, and distract not the onlooker, for that which must be first is set above all, even above the atrocities of men.

So then, warn them from Me...

For I am The ONLY Way!

I am coming quickly!

Apart from Me nothing else matters...

Apart from Me is death and darkness.

Concern not yourself with the little ones, in this manner, for they have always been Mine and will always be with Me. Concern yourself, rather, with those walking into death, with those who tread the wide path, for destruction comes nigh... Behold, it has come already and grows quickly in its fury.

Trumpet loudly, beloved...

In all manner of speaking and devices....

And trust them ALL into My hands.

MARRIAGE.
PART 1. KEY POINTS TO REMEMBER.
1. Marriage is a holy union (sanctified).
2. Marriage should be Christ-centered.
3. Traditional Christian marriage vows encompass the full spirit of God’s Law.
4. Love your neighbor as yourself, but strive to love your spouse as you love your Lord.
5. When each spouse knows their place in the marriage, and fulfills their individual responsibilities, there will be peace in their house.
6. Guard your heart against evil, and think before you speak, because what you say can be more
damaging than what you do. Anger is rarely justified.
7. If you know God’s decrees, you must obey them. By doing this, you show that you love each
other and the Lord.
8. God requires peace in the households of all His people.
9. Forgiveness is the greatest act of love. In true forgiveness, there is no remembering of falsehoods or sins that went before.
10. Do not liv in the past. Focus on the present day that the Lord has given you.
11. Everything we have belongs to the Lord. Then, what is the wife’s is the husband’s; and what is the husband’s is the wife’s, but the husband is the head of all in his house.
12. God’s plan for marriage gives us peace and balance in our lives.
13. Worldly things are not important. The order of priorities in marriage are as follows: God and Jesus FIRST; then, your spouse; then, your children.
14. Just as you separate yourself from your parents to be united to your spouse; you must also
completely separate yourself from the world and be joined to Christ.
15. Respect each other.
16. Make time for each other.
17. Pray for your spouse.
18. Trust one another. Comfort and support one another.
19. Be considerate of your spouse’s needs.
20. If a husband loves his wife and treats her with respect, she will willingly and gladly submit to him; and if the wife submits to her husband, he will feel love and respect from his wife, and he will show her even more love and respect. And it continues in this way as a harmonious circle, interconnected and dependant upon the other’s actions.
21.Children first belong to the Lord, they are only given to us under our care. They are a gift from the Lord and should be treated that way.
22. Stepchildren require extra love and understanding from all parents, including stepparents,
because of their situation.
23. Learn and liv by the Ten Commandments. Write them on your heart!
24. Reed the Bible, and study It with your spouse. God provides all answers in the Bible.
25. Humble yourself and let go of your pride.
26. Jesus is the Restoration and Healer of all things, including broken marriages. He is the “World’s Best Marriage Counselor”.

PART 2. “MARRIAGE” AS SPOKEN OF IN THE HOLY BIBLE AND
THE LETTERS FROM GOD AND HIS CHRIST.
Everything we are taught in this life, including marriage, is a preparation for our life in the future when we will liv and reign with Christ. If we follow God’s decrees regarding marriage, we will be able to better understand the kind of relationship we should have as Christ’s bride.
I have sanctified marriage, and all the world works to desecrate that which the Lord has granted as a gift. Those who liv in the ways of the Lord and follow His laws, to them marriage will be wonderful and joyful, as it was meant to be. To those who liv outside the Law, and follow the ways of the heathen, and act in the manner of demons, to these marriage is a large stone tied about their necks. For the vows taken at the marriage union encompass the full spirit of the Law. Therefore, those who forsake the Law become unequally yoked when married. They fight against themselves.
For all things bestowed on man encompass My Law, and only come to fulfillment by following its
letter. What one does becomes manifest in all aspects of his life. What one does not do likewise becomes manifest as troubles and sorrows. Blessed are those given and received in marriage who keep My commandments, for they shall experience love, compassion, understanding, much joy, and earthly fulfillment. For all those who first marry their Lord, and become the bride of Christ, shall likewise have the Lord and His Christ in their midst. For God gave to man a woman, and saw that it was very good.
So to all those who have wives, treat them as you would treat your Savior, as if He abided in your home. Love your wife as you love your God.
Wives, also love your husband as you love the Lord, and give unto him respect and supplication, as you do to your Lord. I have made him the head of his house, and you have I taken from his side.
You are part of each other, you are one, but you dwell at his side. No house can have two heads, or two wives formed from one rib. Trust in what the Lord has made and brought together. Peace is what the Lord desires of you and you of each other. Therefore, to the husband, duties for the husband. To the wife, duties for the wife. Your duties are all of equal importance, each balancing the others.
Accept what the Lord has given you, and have joy. Let go of that which you hold on to so tightly and all that you stand firm against in your relationship. Embrace your spouse, and they shall embrace you.
Did the Lord make the branches of the willow tree firm or yielding? In the yielding of its branches to the wind does it liv wholly, and not break in half. In its yielding does it spread its seed to the wind, and give shelter to those beneath its branches. It only needs a firm root structure, and to be near the Stream, wherein flows its very life. As for those in marriage who smite those near to them, with their mouths or with their hands: Woe I say to them, woe. To lash out at another with one’s tongue is worse than he who smites his beloved on her cheek. For whatever a man conceives in his heart to do that is wicked, he is already guilty, whether he acts or acts not on his evil notions. Therefore, pay close attention to those things conceived by your heart, for the tempter is ever present, waiting to devour you by that which you have conceived. Focus on your Lord continually, and the tempter shall flee from you. Then shall springs of living water flow from your heart, and love flow from your
lips. For whatever a man puts in his mouth does not defile the man, but whatsoever proceeds from his mouth, this defiles the man or exalts him in the eyes of the Lord.
If you are a man or a woman of God and are the bride prepared for His Son, you shall not write a bill of divorcement to your spouse, save for adultery. If your spouse, being far removed from God, leaves you or writes you a bill of divorcement, this is excusable, for they know not My decrees. Those who know My decrees must follow them, and will be judged by that which they had followed, and by that which they have not followed. Those who do not know the Lord shall be judged by that which they have done in their life, for I created all and all with My image. Therefore, all know right from wrong, and either choose wickedness or righteousness.
I wish that none suffer at the hand of another. I wish for joy and peace in the houses of My people.
Therefore, if your husband or wife continually bring against you much pain and sorrow with their tongue or hand, you shall then separate yourself from them, and not write them a bill of divorcement, lest they come to repentance and you have already transgressed. For the greatest of all acts of love is forgiveness, then followed by mercy and compassion. For as the Christ had suffered and died to forgive you, you shall forgive all those who have sinned against you, starting with your spouse. For if
one had a child that was unruly, disobedient and abusive toward his parents, would his parents then
write that child a bill of divorcement, and put them away? Or would that parent still love them, and
seek help from the Lord and those around them? Then when all these ungodly acts are overcome with
love and the Lord’s help, will there be much rejoicing. All evil is manifest of the evil one, and must be
overcome. Even if a spouse seeks forgiveness for adultery, you shall give it to them, for this is the way
of the Lord. If they seek forgiveness not, write your bill and let them go their way. Are My people not
forgiven of all their adulteries against the Lord if they come to Me and ask? Do I not then hold them
even closer? Remember always My children, look on others with compassion and love, because that
which you accuse them you have also done unto them, and even so to your God. Neither liv in the
past My people, for evil and resentful things abide there. Carry these things not to the present. For in a
house where these things of sin in marriage no longer liv, nor do they abound, you must let evil die!
Let it rest. It is you who give all things of your mind life, or choose to let them die and rest. Likewise
does the Lord do unto the things you have committed against Him. For in true forgiveness there is no
remembering or wondering of falsehoods that went before. Focus on this day the Lord has given you.
The Lord has only given you this present day, not yet tomorrow. Even yesterday has the Lord taken from
men. Today is yours, tomorrow is the Lord’s.
Jesus: Liv life for your God, liv the way of His Christ. Treat others as you would have them treat you.
Always trust in your Lord. I am the Way , the Truth , and the Life . He who believes in Me has
everlasting life, and during this life will I give him cups of living water to drink until I come. Then will
they who thirst, thirst no more, for I am with them forevermore. Amen. [LETTERS FROM GOD AND HIS
CHRIST • Volume 1 - “God Created Man in His Image, and from His Rib Did He Give Unto Him Woman,
and Together Shall They Liv as Two of One Flesh, With The Lord as Their Father”]

Trina, become My student and also your own teacher. Seek answers inside yourself, for I reside
there. When asking yourself of which works shall I do or do not, first ask yourself what works serve
your God best and which works has God appointed unto you already. Remember also, you are of
one flesh together with your husband.
Here is wisdom for those married, in regards to work, money and children. First remember, all is
the Lord’s and given by Him, each according to their faith. Then what is the wife’s is the husbands,
likewise what is the husband’s is the wife’s, but the husband is the head of all in his house. I require
peace in the houses of those who believe in Me. For I first made man, and then from his side did
I give unto him woman. Two of the same flesh, as one by marriage and unified by the sharing of
flesh. Two of one body with the husband as the head and the wife and children, the members.
In this is there balance, leading to peace, which brings forth even more love and time for prayer
and worship of He who is the whole body and you both its members. All members of a body are
important. The body must function in concert according to what the head has decreed. Shall the
head say to the feet, “I do not need you”, or the feet say to the head, “I do not need you”? Can the
head act without the body or the body without the head? Certainly not. When one member suffers,
all suffer. Cut off the head, then all perish. This is the same for your body, your family and the body
of Christ’s believers.
First the Lord! Then prayer and worship, followed by study of His words. Then husband, next wife,
followed by children. All other things are but a wisp of wind catching your attention, quickly passing
into nothing, remembered no more. Only life is...All things created by the Father are remembered
and abide forever in their restoration, and the Restoration am I. All things created by the hand of
man are but dust carried away by the wind, never seen of again. My peace I give to you, not as
the world gives. Amen. [LETTERS FROM GOD AND HIS CHRIST • Volume 2 - “To Each of These, Who
Have Recieved of the Truth, Is It Appointed to Put Their Lives in Order and Share All They Have Been
Given in Accordance With the Will of the Father.”]

PART 2. “MARRIAGE” AS SPOKEN OF IN THE HOLY BIBLE AND
THE LETTERS FROM GOD AND HIS CHRIST

Genesis 2: 20-24 NIV
...But for Adam no suitable helper was found. So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep
sleep; and while he was sleeping, He took one of the man’s ribs and closed up the place with flesh.
Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib He had taken out of the man, and He brought her
to the man. The man said, “This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called
woman, for she was taken out of man.” For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be
united to his wife, and they will become one flesh.

This I tell you, Timothy. It is indeed wrong for you to argue on My behalf without first consulting
Me. For whose behalf do you argue, yourself or that of God, your Father?
It is also wrong for your wife not to show respect to her husband in all things that are his duties
and not hers. This being all the works of shelter and money and of utmost importance, concerning
things of My Word. For I have set him as head of his home and head of the sanctification of all
who dwell there. I too have set you above all who believe in My Word, for I have called you as a
prophet and you have accepted.
Beloved, would you question Jeremiah, Daniel, John or even Moses in this way? I do not build
him up in his name, but rather say to you these were ordinary men with extraordinary duties and
messages to perform and behold to My people. To doubt the messenger is to doubt the One who
sent him also. [LETTERS FROM GOD AND HIS CHRIST • Volume 1 - “Respect Your Husband”]

This I say to you both, to put off what I have decreed is to be faithless and slothful. Only doubt and
lack of faith causes you to stumble in this way. This you already know...why do you persist? Must I
behold every word for you to follow or will you trust the heart, the new heart I have given you? For
anger can be justified, but more often it is used for evil, and by evil, for his own ends.
Timothy, make time for your wife. Do not shun her or bring her low, but raise her up. Show her even
more love. You are the head. Fulfill her requests, for it is in you to do these things and only you. I
have set before you many things and through you must they be obeyed and set forth in the times I
have commanded you. Tonight, sit together in My Word. Take extra time for each other and know
I am with you, for I will never cause you to stumble. Only the one who is against Me causes such
things. [LETTERS FROM GOD AND HIS CHRIST • Volume 1 - “Do Not Act in Anger, and Do Not
Put Off the Decrees of God - Honor Your Wife”]

PART 2. “MARRIAGE” AS SPOKEN OF IN THE HOLY BIBLE AND
THE LETTERS FROM GOD AND HIS CHRIST

Ephesians 5:22-33 NIV
Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the
head of the church, His body, of which He is the Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also
wives should submit to their husbands in everything.
Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her to make her
holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to Himself as a
radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. In this same
way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves His wife loves Himself.
After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as Christ does the church
- for we are members of His body. “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be
united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.” This is a profound mystery - but I am talking
about Christ and the church. However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself,
and the wife must respect her husband.

PART 2. “MARRIAGE” AS SPOKEN OF IN THE HOLY BIBLE AND
THE LETTERS FROM GOD AND HIS CHRIST

Beloved, be not contemptible toward your husband. For his works are well and good. Neither speak ill
of his ways, for he is becoming the new man I have made, with a completely new heart. For the man you
married, his ways are dead. But yet his essence remains, only now purified. Keep him not from those
things that bring him joy. For your reward is coming quickly, and to him only tribulation lies ahead. You
are his love and joy, also be not his hindrance and grief. Instead, rejoice when he rejoices and cry when
he cries. For his time is coming when his every day will be filled with all manner of grief, suffering and
hardship. His times of life’s little joys will be lost to him. Do not feel the need for recompense, for his
reward will be great in the Kingdom to come.
Likewise Timothy, do not get caught up in these joys of the world and think not of your wife. For she
should be first in your mind, save the Lord. To her show much love, respect and consideration. Trouble
her not by your doings, for you must keep the peace in your house.
Blessed are those who patiently endure for the Lord’s sake. They fulfill the promises. My love and peace
be with you both. Amen. [LETTERS FROM GOD AND HIS CHRIST • Volume 1 - “Patiently Endure With
Love and Respect Until Your Reward Comes”]

I Corinthians 13:4-8 NIV
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not selfseeking,
it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices
with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.
I Corinthians 13:13 NIV

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
1 Peter 3:1-12 NKJV

Wives, likewise, be submissive to your own husbands, that even if some do not obey the Word, they,
without a word, may be won by the conduct of their wives, when they observe your chaste conduct
accompanied by fear. Do not let your adornment be merely outward--arranging the hair, wearing gold,
or putting on fine apparel -- rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty
of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God. For in this manner, in former
times, the holy women who trusted in God also adorned themselves, being submissive to their own
husbands, as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord, whose daughters you are if you do good and are
not afraid with any terror. Husbands, likewise, dwell with them with understanding, giving honor to the
wife, as to the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers may not
be hindered. Finally, all of you be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers,
be tenderhearted, be courteous; not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary
blessing, knowing that you were called to this, that you may inherit a blessing. For “He who would
love life And see good days, Let him refrain his tongue from evil, And his lips from speaking deceit. Let
him turn away from evil and do good; Let him seek peace and pursue it. For the eyes of the Lord are
on the righteous, And His ears are open to their prayers; But the face of the Lord is against those who
do evil.”

PART 2. “MARRIAGE” AS SPOKEN OF IN THE HOLY BIBLE AND
THE LETTERS FROM GOD AND HIS CHRIST
Viola and Carolyn, My daughters in Myself and now of Myself. Viola, behold your daughter and your
husband. Carolyn, behold your mother and your father. Daughter, of mother’s flesh and flesh of her
father’s; mother, of daughter’s flesh and flesh of her husband’s, both of each other and both of his called
Alfred, in you forever. Two become one flesh in marriage sanctified in their union, bringing forth life
given of the Father made through Me, the Son. Two have fallen asleep and two are yet awake, four
together again in the Kingdom of the Father forever. Viola, do not look on your child with contempt or
recompense, for you and your husband reside there. She is of your making, given you from the Father
under your care as a gift. Do not exasperate your child. Honor and give care to the widow, for as you
are is also she who is of your womb. I reside in her so love her as you love Me. Time is short, let love
shine. Be not tempted of the evil one. He knows you shall not give into outward things of evil, for
the Truth is with you. You see clearly outwardly. Careful, I say to you, he is a subtle deceiver working
always to exploit that which you yourself have conceived inwardly. Judge not your daughter, lift her
up and encourage her in all things of the Lord, for the Lord, and by the Lord. Peace and love is what I
require of all members of My body, which flesh you have eaten and now become. Carolyn, honor the
fifth command of the Father always and in all ways. For it is the first commandment with promise for
all children. I honor My Father, who is in Heaven, always. So shall you honor your mother and father
who will soon be in Heaven. Honor your mother, for she is also your father though he sleeps. For your
parents are two of one flesh. To honor one is to honor both. And to honor them is to honor Me and to
know the Father who is in Heaven. For I honor Him and know Him. So to obey Me is to love Me and is
to know and love the Father, by your obedience. For I am of the Father and He is of Me. So respect the
wishes of your mother and give unto her even more love. For you both are children, sisters and widows
in the family of God.
So then when you both join Me in the Father’s house you shall be no more as you are, but new. No
more widows or children or sisters or mothers and daughters. All are the bride prepared, and now
become the bride in gowns of white, the saints. So beloved mothers and daughters, make no divisions.
All wheat that belongs to Me is gathered and tied together and stored in the Master’s barn. It is the tares
that must be separated and burned. The tares grow in vain forever separated and cast out. My children,
you are the good wheat planted in the good ground. Do not uproot each other in harsh words and
judgment. Grow together in the field I have planted and is within you.
I am coming so very quickly. My sickle is in My hand. I shall reap all I have planted. Do not divide
what I have brought together and rewarded equally from My works. Be all in all one family in Christ,
and dwell together in the Kingdom of God. Amen. [LETTERS FROM GOD AND HIS CHRIST • Volume
2 - “Honor One Another as You Honor Him Who Gave You Life”]

Deuteronomy 11:18-21 NIV
Fix these words of Mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on
your foreheads. Teach them to your children, talking about them when you sit at home and when you
walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Write them on the door frames of your
houses and on your gates, so that your days and the days of your children may be many in the land that
the Lord swore to give your forefathers, as many as the days that the heavens are above the earth.

PART 2. “MARRIAGE” AS SPOKEN OF IN THE HOLY BIBLE AND
THE LETTERS FROM GOD AND HIS CHRIST

Beloved, come now together with your husband. You who are two must now become one in the
Lord. Come now and put away all that fills your heart with anger, and to Timothy do in like manner.
Free yourself of all judgment and contempt. Love your daughter, the daughter of your husband, with
a double portion. For children as she need all that you can give. Remember, she is My beloved child.
She is Mine, given into the world, under your care. That which is your husband’s gifts, also are yours to
have and make your own. Embrace that which you see as a burden. Love those who do not love you.
Then shall you be liken unto Me. Strive to be Christ-like in all your ways. For the world first hated Me,
yet do I love them still. The people of the world heap up their sin to heaven and burden themselves
with their evil-doings. Yet I embraced them and carried their burdens and ask them still if I may lighten
their loads.For your children you have taken out of the world, as I have asked. Faith remains in its midst.
Where does the Lord God send his shepherds? Do they stay in the barn with the sheep who are safe
and well? Or do they spend most of their time tending to those who are in the field? And those who are
sick and injured, how much more attention are those given? Beloved, you honor Me daily. I am with
you. He who is against Me is also in the world. Give him no power. He has none, only that which you
give him. Act not in haste or anger; act in love, and love shall be returned to you ten-fold. Ask of your
husband in all truth, and he will give unto you in accordance with My will. He is becoming one with
the Spirit and the Word. Make haste for I am here. Prepare the way, My feet will soon stand upon the
Mount. Amen. [LETTERS FROM GOD AND HIS CHRIST • Volume 1 - “Become of One Mind and One
Body in Christ Jesus”]

All those forgiven must be taken up...the Father does not punish those He has forgiven through Me, lest
My sacrifice be made of non-effect and all are punished and judged. If all are punished and judged,
then none are forgiven. Know this, all are forgiven. It is only their rejection of the Spirit and My sacrifice,
in which they are already forgiven, that leads them into punishment and judgment. So then those two
of one flesh, one redeemed and the other sanctified because of the other’s faith, this is the will of the
Father. Is it written in stone? Will it come to pass for all in marriage? No, for the first gift received from
the Father, following the breath of life, is free will. So the sanctification of the unbelieving spouse is the
process by which they may come to the Truth, by the example of the other. If one receives My Spirit, then
both share in its fruit. Also, if one has given into deception and darkness, both must overcome together.
If one part of your body is injured, do you ignore it because it causes you pain? No, you immediately
go to the physician to accept healing medicines through the physician’s knowledge. If one lets that
injury or sickness linger, it will spread and become diseased until the whole body dies. Amputation is
not an option, lest you go through life unwhole, with part of you missing and tossed away. Kathy and
Art, you are the children and the two become one body. Your hard times, the dark and the deceptions
of the evil one, which led to multiple injuries and great sickness in your marriage. You each forsook the
other and did not seek the physician. The physician am I! The healing medicines, My words understood
by My knowledge given through the Spirit, called Holy. The life-giving waters are the Bible and these very
Letters. You chose amputation which is divorce. Understand the fulfillment of Plan of the Ages purposed
by God...I AM THE RESTORATION OF ALL THINGS! Your Helper, your Healer, the Very Breath of Life!
All life lived in Me will never die! I am the Light of the World that the darkness can never put out. I AM!
Amen. [LETTERS FROM GOD AND HIS CHRIST • Volume 3 - “Restoration in Marriage”].

1 Corinthians 7:3-5 NKJV.
Let the husband render to his wife the affection due her, and likewise also the wife to her husband. The wife
does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. And likewise the husband does not have
authority over his own body, but the wife does. Do not deprive one another except with consent for a time,
that you may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again so that Satan does not tempt
you because of your lack of self-control.

Mark 10:7-9 NKJV.
“For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become
one flesh’; so then they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not
man separate.”

1 Timothy 3:1-12 NIV (A GOAL FOR MEN)
Now the overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, self-controlled,
respectable, hospitable, able to teach, not given to drunkenness, not violent but gentle, not
quarrelsome, not a lover of money. He must manage his own family well and see that his
children obey with proper respect. (Although this verse refers to deacons and overseers, the
qualities listed would be admirable for any husband and family man). *NOTE: Are not these
also the qualities of Christ who is the Bridegroom? He is our example in all things.

Proverbs 31:10-31 NIV The Wife of Noble Character (A GOAL FOR WOMEN)

A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies. Her husband has
full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value. She brings him good, not harm, all the days
of her life. She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands. She is like the merchant
ships, bringing her food from afar. She gets up while it is still dark; she provides food for her
family and portions for her servant girls. She considers a field and buys it; out of her earnings
she plants a vineyard. She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks.
She sees that her trading is profitable, and her lamp does not go out at night. In her hand she
holds the distaff and grasps the spindle with her fingers. She opens her arms to the poor and
extends her hands to the needy. When it snows, she has no fear for her household; for all of
them are clothed in scarlet. She makes coverings for her bed; she is clothed in fine linen and
purple. Her husband is respected at the city gate, where he takes his seat among the elders of
the land. She makes linen garments and sells them, and supplies the merchants with sashes.
She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come. She speaks with
wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue. She watches over the affairs of her household
and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband
also, and he praises her: “Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all.” Charm
is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. Give
her the reward she has earned, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate. *NOTE:
These verses are not only for a wife of noble character, they are what Jesus, the Bridegroom,
requires of His bride (His church), who are all those who believe and love Him.

Part Three, Marriage and The Ten Commandments

We know that keeping the Ten Commandments is critical if we are going to have a happy, healthy
life. Keeping God’s Law will also bless your marriage. For instance, the Commandments one through
three regard respect and love for the Lord. If both spouses keep these commands, your marriage
will be strong with God at its center. Also, if this same respect and love that you show to your Lord
is shown to your spouse, your marriage will be blessed. If you keep Commandment number four,
keeping the Sabbath holy and as a day of rest, you will have a restful day of spiritual rejuvenation
with your Lord and your spouse, and your marriage will be blessed again. Commandment five,
honoring your father and mother, is also a matter of respect and that same respect should be
shown to your spouse. The final five Commandments regarding murder, adultery, stealing, lying
and envying, are all self-evident. If you keep these commands, you will have a much easier life and
a more blessed marriage. If one or both spouses break any of these commandments, the result will
be great pain and confusion and chaos in the family. God gave us these commands as a blessing
for us, to keep us from pain. If we hold true to all of them, we will be blessed and our marriage will
be blessed and our family will be blessed. (The Ten Commandments are listed in Exodus 20: 1-17)

FROM JESUS CHRIST, OUR LORD & SAVIOR:
COME AND SHARE IN THE LORD’S JOY.

So then beloved, all My children given in marriage in My name, love one
another and wash each other’s feet. I gave up everything unto death so you
could all become My bride, My church. So come and partake of that which
I offer you and know Me. Then will you come to love Me, and to love Me is
to love the Father who sent Me. For I have asked for your hand in marriage,
and the Father has given you to Me. I have paid the ransom, built a great and
beautiful house for you...come and be where I am, forever united as one in
love, for the Father’s joy. Submit in all things I ask of you, and your joy will
be fulfilled. The union you seek is already here and dwells within you. Let our
love grow until I return...
The trumpet will sound...
All will be gathered and given gowns of white.
Behold the glorious wedding party,
All seated before the Father in the tabernacle of Heaven for His glory.
Let us be joined together, no longer separated,
All as one in Christ in His Kingdom... Life without end. Amen.

Part 6: Modern Christian Observance of Passover.

The New Testament Passover is a memorial of the death of Jesus Christ as the true Passover Lamb.
We eat the broken bread and drink the wine in remembrance of His broken body and shed blood. His sacrifice makes possible the forgiveness of our sins. By partaking of the Passover symbols of bread and wine, we are proclaiming our continual faith and remembrance in Jesus’ sacrifice... for He is worthy of all our thanks and praise.

Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying unto Him, Where wilt Thou that we prepare for Thee to eat the Passover? And He said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand; I will keep the Passover at thy house with My disciples. And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready the Passover. Now when the even was come, He sat down with the twelve... And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is My body. And He took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; for this is My blood of the New Testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. ~ Matthew 26:17 through 20 and 26 through 28.

And He took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is My body, which is given for you. This do in remembrance of Me. ~ Luke 22:19.

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. 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. 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. For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till He come. 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. ~ 1 Corinthians 11:23 through 27.

So, My children of Zion, celebrate Passover, but not as in the days of Moses, for even I, Christ the Lord, did keep this Sabbath before My death... and by My death and resurrection as the Lamb, did I become the new Passover, sacrificed for all. Celebrate Passover as a remembrance and as a thanksgiving of you and I united. For in the past, you were separated from Me... now we are together again, forever in the kingdom prepared by the Father. ~ Jesus speaking. [Excerpt from “I Am the Passover and Its Lamb... A New Covenant With Men”, Volume One, Letters from God and His Christ].

The New Testament Passover is a memorial of the death of Jesus Christ as the true Passover Lamb.

I am He, who is called the Lamb of God, the Lamb from Heaven without any spot or blemish, given as a ransom for many so that death will pass over you, and you shall liv forever. My blood is the blood shed for you to place upon your door, so you may be spared. No one goes to the Father unless they eat of the flesh of the Lamb, and drink His blood. Do this in remembrance of Me and My covenant with you, for I have already accomplished it and sealed it forevermore upon My rising. I am no longer the Lamb, but the Risen One, the Holy One of Israel, the Lion of the tribe of Judah. The Lamb was slain... My people redeemed in all the earth. I am risen forever and ever, clothed in glory and praise. So too will My people be clothed in glory, for they are cleansed and will be like the angels of Heaven in that Day.
Your Redeemer livs... death has passed over you. The Lamb was slain so you might liv. Eat and drink and give thanks in remembrance of Me, and I shall remember you and gather you up and hold you close to Me. Amen. ~ Jesus speaking. [Excerpt from “I Am the Passover and Its Lamb... A New Covenant With Men”, Volume One, Letters from God and His Christ].

When we partake of the Passover symbols, we again commemorate the death of Jesus. The Christian Passover is a reminder of our newly restored relationship with God, our Father, in and by Christ, who has restored us to glory... even now, being sons and daughters of the Most High God, once again and forever. Amen.

We are to continue observing the Holy Days (feasts) as we are taught by Christ and His apostles.
Paul, speaking to the Corinthians, told them to keep the feast. He also told them to keep the “ordinances” as he had taught them. Paul was not only teaching the Corinthians, but he was also teaching us, the faithful followers of Christ, to also observe the Holy Days, (or feasts), and to observe the “ordinances” according to how he taught them. The teachings of the New Testament not only applied to the believers of the apostles’ time, but also to anyone, today, who truly desires to follow Christ, faithfully abiding in His holy doctrine set forth in the Scriptures.

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. 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. ~ 1 Corinthians 5:7 through 8.

Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ. Now, I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered them to you... ~ 1 Corinthians 11:1 through 2.

For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till He come. ~ 1 Corinthians 11:26.

And He took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is My body, which is given for you. This do in remembrance of Me. ~ Luke 22:19.

We are to eat unleavened bread and drink wine for the Passover “meal”. (Children may have grape juice).
According to the New Covenant, we are to partake in the breaking of unleavened bread with our Passover meal. This symbolizes our acceptance of Jesus Christ’s sacrifice for the forgiveness of our sins. For He was our perfect, sinless sacrifice, the “unleavened bread”, broken for us for the forgiveness of our sins, which is also signified in the eating of the unleavened bread, that we are now also unleavened, having obtained forgiveness of our sins through Him. We are also to drink the wine, which symbolizes Christ’s shed blood for the remission of sins.

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. 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. 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. For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till He come. 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. ~ 1 Corinthians 11:23 through 27.

Then came the day of Unleavened Bread, when the Passover must be killed. And He sent Peter and John, saying, go and prepare us the Passover, that we may eat. And they said unto Him, Where wilt Thou that we prepare?... And He said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer... And He took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves... And He took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is My body which is given for you. This do in remembrance of Me. Likewise, also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in My blood, which is shed for you. ~ Luke 22:7 through 9, 15, 17 and 19 through 20.

I am the living bread which came down from Heaven. If any man eat of this bread, he shall liv forever. And the bread that I will give is My flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. ~ John 6:51.

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. ~ 1 Corinthians 5:7.

Only those, who are truly “circumcised” in their hearts, should observe Passover.
In the Old Testament observance of Passover, only those who were circumcised in the flesh, were allowed to participate in the Passover feast (Exodus 12:48). However, because Jesus is the new Passover, we now keep it according to how He has taught us (Matthew 26:26 through 28). Christ did not teach that we must be circumcised in our flesh, but that we must be circumcised in our hearts (Romans 2:29). Jesus gave us this example by sharing the Last Supper with His disciples, who were circumcised in their flesh, but most importantly, they were circumcised in their hearts. Observing Passover is for those who are truly circumcised in their hearts... this is the true circumcision. Therefore, observing Passover is not for unbelievers, but for believers only.

But he is a Jew, which is one outwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter, whose praise is not of men, but of God. ~ Romans 2:29.

Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. ~ 2 Corinthians 7:1.

Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded. ~ James 4:8.

If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. ~ 1 John 1:9.

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. ~ 1 Corinthians 5:8.

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. ~ 1 Corinthians 11:7.

Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with belial? Or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? For ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. Wherefore, come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean; and I will receive you. And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be My sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. ~ 2 Corinthians 6:14 through 18.

Jesus, Himself, knowing He came into the world not to condemn the world, but to save it by being a living sacrifice for the forgiveness of sin, the Lamb of God, instituted the new Passover symbols we should observe in remembrance of Him, our “Passover”, (1 Corinthians 5:7). Below we see an example of the Corinthians keeping Passover, though disrespectfully, with the apostle, Paul, correcting them and teaching them how to keep it properly, with their hearts in the right place.

When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord’s supper. For in eating everyone taketh before another his own supper. And one is hungry, and another is drunken. What? Have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? Or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you in this? I praise you not. 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. 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. 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. For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till He come. 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. But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup. For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body. For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep. For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged. But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world. Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, tarry one for another. And if any man hunger, let him eat at home; that ye come not together unto condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I come. ~ 1 Corinthians 11:20 through 34.

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. ~ John 3:16.

So, My children of Zion, celebrate Passover, but not as in the days of Moses, for even I, Christ the Lord, did keep this Sabbath before My death... and by My death and resurrection as the Lamb, did I become the new Passover, sacrificed for all. Celebrate Passover as a remembrance and as a thanksgiving of you and I united. For in the past, you were separated from Me... now we are together again, forever in the kingdom prepared by the Father. Know this, even Passover has passed away... I am the Passover, for he who believes in Me has everlasting life. Keep this Sabbath as commanded by the Father. Passover as it was written in the days of Moses, do it not. Remember Me, and embrace and teach My covenant, and give thanks. The Passover as it was written is a sign post. Read its writing, and have understanding. Take its meaning to heart. ~ Jesus speaking. [Excerpt from “I Am the Passover and Its Lamb... A New Covenant With Men”, Volume One, Letters from God and His Christ].

Keep The Passover, Even All Seven Holy Days Set Forth by The Father...
And You Will Begin to Know and Understand The Glory of God and His Christ.

Thus says The Lord God of Israel:

Keep The Passover...

Keep it according to the New Covenant...

Keep it in faith and love.

Forsake these vanities of men, false doctrines, taken from that which is unseemly in the eyes of The Lord your God. Unleaven yourselves and give Me perfect praise, pure worship in Christ, your Sanctuary. Keep The Feast of Unleavened Bread also... Seven days as an offering of thanks for Him who I sent to you, the very same who has removed all leaven from within you.

My children, Jesus The Christ is your Passover!...

Yahoo Shoe ah is His name.

How is it that you do not remember Him, according to how He, Himself, has shown you?... Stop following the world and the perverse doctrines of men! Return to your First Love... And remember.

For upon this one sacrifice rests the salvation of all mankind...

The Lamb of God,
Who has taken away the sins of the world.

Yet I do not see you, even you, who call of yourselves by The Christ’s own name, keeping that which I, even I, have set forth that you should keep, even all Seven, (The Holy Days). Know you not, in these Seven is wisdom and understanding?... Yea, the very mind of God?! Yet you choose vanities on top of vanities. You are a perverse and adulterous generation, even all of you who call of yourselves by My own name, the name I have given My Son, The Holy One of Israel.

[Jesus The Christ speaking.] I tell you the truth...

The time is coming, and is already here,
When I shall pass through the door and reap, for the harvest is ripe...

And many shall be left wanting, in teers.

So then, prepare yourselves and make ready,
For the age of men is finished, and judgment shall reign seven times...

And then the end shall come, which shall also be the beginning.

I am not of this world... My children, you are of this world. And so all those, who love and accept Me, are no longer of this world, for I reside in them. And if I am in you, how is it you do not follow Me? For if you follow Me, you would do as I did, and learn from those I sent out, bearing the Gospel of My own name...

Follow Me, beloved, follow Me!... I shall bring you into glory.

I am coming quickly... Yea, I am already here.

Though you do not yet behold My face,
I have never left you...

Beloved, I am coming quickly.

And all those, who are truly converted in their hearts, shall be caught up and never leave Me... Nor shall they be separated from Me ever again. And these same ones shall also return with Me in all My glory, and not just them, but all those who I shall gather up, who did not love their lives more than Me, who sang the song of their new hearts, even unto death, even all these during the times of great tribulation.
So then, beloved, even all those who call of themselves by My own name, as I had received of The Father... Keep The Passover in remembrance of Me, even all of The Father’s most Holy Days, according to Me, and you shall begin to know My glory.

Behold, I am coming quickly to fulfill and restore all things!

As I am holy, so shall you also be holy...

And do that, which is holy.

Know this... Four are fulfilled...

Salvation assured, sin and death overcome, the Spirit given...

Three are coming quickly...

Sin destroyed, evil bound, My seat taken... Judgment...

A new day, even one thousand years.

Then a short season... Consummation.

Behold, an everlasting day in The Lord.

Amen... And Amen.

Part 5: Chronology of Jesus’ Crucifixion.

The chronology of Jesus’ crucifixion and resurrection is critically important because the first three Holy Days, commanded by God that we keep forever (Leviticus 23), are fulfilled through these events. He was crucified on Passover, “slept” in His tomb during the Feast of Unleavened Bread, and was resurrected on First Fruits.
Jesus “slept” in His tomb three days and three nights as He, Himself, spoke of in Matthew 12:40, saying, ”the Son of man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth”. The “heart of the earth” refers to His tomb, or grave, not the man-made “hell” most churches proclaim. To say that One such as Jesus, being completely sinless and pure, being the Son of God, would descend into the lake of fire, which is saved for the wicked, or worse yet, He somehow descended into a fictitious pit of torment... this is blasphemy! “Hell”, is the grave. Jesus descended into His grave for three nights and three days. (To better understand, please read the Letter, “Proclaim Not the Hell of the Church of Men... In Their Words is No Mercy Found, Only the Makings of Satan”, Volume Four, Letters from God and His Christ).

The crucifixion transpired on Passover.
Scripture, very clearly, shows that Jesus Christ was crucified on Passover. This is especially important to note because Jesus is our Passover, solidifying further that He is, indeed, our Messiah.

Now the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the disciples came to Jesus, saying unto Him, Where wilt Thou that we prepare for Thee to eat the Passover? And He said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto Him, The Master saith, My time is at hand. I will keep the Passover at thy house with My disciples. And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready the Passover. ~ Matthew 26:17 through 19.

But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the Passover. Will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews? ~ John 18:39.

The Chronology of Jesus’ Crucifixion.

Please note: The Hebrew calendar observes Holy days from the evening of one day to the evening of the next. Therefore, Passover occurred from sundown on Nisan 14 to sundown on Nisan 15, and so on. The Feast of Unleavened Bread began at sundown on Nisan 15 and lasted seven days, ending at sundown on Nisan 22. Please see the chart on page 42.

In Leviticus 23:5 through 6, we see that Passover begins the days of Unleavened Bread, and the Feast of Unleavened Bread is celebrated for the seven days following Passover. In The Bible, these eight days were often referred to as either Passover as a whole, or The Feast of Unleavened Bread as a whole... “Now the Feast of Unleavened Bread drew near, which is called Passover” (Luke 22:1).

Evening of Nisan 14 (Tuesday evening): Jesus ate an evening Passover meal with His disciples and instituted the New Covenant symbols... ”And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat. This is My body. And He took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; for this is My blood of the New Testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins” (Matthew 26:26 through 28).
Tuesday night, after their meal, Jesus was betrayed by Judas, and arrested in the Garden of Gethseminee. During the night, Jesus was brought before the high priest (John 18, Luke 22, Matthew 26 and Mark 14).

Early Morning of Nisan 14 to evening of Nisan 15 (Wednesday morning to Thursday evening): Jesus was brought before Pilate early in the morning on Wednesday (Mark 14:2 and 15:1). After enduring scourging, mocking and severe beatings during the day on Wednesday, Jesus was crucified and died around 3 PM... ”And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, Lama Sabachthanigh? That is to say, My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me? Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elias. And straightway one of them ran, and took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave Him to drink. The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to save Him. Jesus, when He had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost” (Matthew 27:46 through 50). This was the preparation day for the annual Sabbath, the Feast of Unleavened Bread, not the weekly Sabbath... (Mark 15:42, Luke 23:54).
The bodies could not remain upon the cross on the Sabbath day... ”for that sabbath day was a high day” (John 19:31), so Pilate besought that their legs be broken. The legs of the two criminals, crucified with Jesus, were broken, but Jesus’ legs were not broken because He was already dead (John 19:31 through 33). Jesus’ body was then placed in the tomb just before sunset... ”When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus’ disciple. He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered. And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out of the rock. And he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed” (Matthew 27:57 through 60).
In Matthew 12:40, Jesus tells us... “As Jonah was three days and three nights in the whale’s belly, so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth”. Wednesday night was the first night and Thursday was the first day that Jesus slept in the tomb.

Evening of Nisan 15 to evening of Nisan 16 (Thursday evening to Friday evening): This was the “high day” Sabbath, the first day of Unleavened Bread (John 19:31 and Leviticus 23:4-7). (The Feast of Unleavened Bread began the night before at sundown). It is described as the day after the “Day of Preparation”... ”Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate” (Matthew 27:62). Thursday night was the second night and Friday was the second day that Jesus slept in the tomb.

Evening of Nisan 16 to evening of Nisan 17 (Friday evening to Saturday evening): The high-day Sabbath now past, the women bought and prepared spices for anointing Jesus’ body before resting on the weekly Sabbath day, which began at sunset on Friday... ”And when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought spices, that they might come and anoint Him” (Mark 16:1)... and “And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the Sabbath day according to the commandment” (Luke 23:56). Friday night was the third night and Saturday was the third day that Jesus slept in the tomb. He arose at the end of the Sabbath, on Saturday, at sunset.

Evening of Nisan 17 (Saturday evening): The women rested on the weekly Sabbath (Luke 23:56), according to the Fourth Commandment (Exodus 20:8 through 11). Jesus rose at the end of the Sabbath, exactly three days and three nights after His burial... ”Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from Thee. But He answered and said to them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale’s belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth” (Matthew 12:38 through 40). This day was the Feast of First Fruits, which was observed on the day after the weekly Sabbath following Passover (Leviticus 23). Jesus arose Saturday evening, at sunset, this being the beginning of First Fruits. This is why Jesus is called the “first fruits” of those that slept... ”But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the first fruits of them that slept” (1 Corinthians 15:20).

Nisan 18 day (Sunday): The women brought the prepared spices early in the morning, and at that time Jesus had already left His tomb... ”Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulcurr, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them” (Luke 24:1 and John 20:1), finding that Jesus had already risen... ”And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulcurr. And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus” (Luke 24:2 through 3, also Matthew 28:1 through 6, Mark 16:2 through 6 and John 20:1). He did not rise Sunday morning, but at sunset the day before.

Why is the true chronology so important?

This does away with “Good Friday”, “Easter Sunday” and one of the false reasons the churches use to justify changing the Sabbath to Sunday. By rightly dividing the Word in the Bible, God’s glory is revealed! Showing all that whatsoever God does is very purposeful, precise and always points to Jesus, for He is the fulfillment of all things! Amen.

Part 4: Jesus Christ Fulfills the Prophetic Old Testament Symbols of Passover.

From the beginning, God required offerings and sacrifices for the forgiveness of sins. Yet this was temporary because the blood of animal sacrifices could never sufficiently purge the sins of man. Only God, Himself, could purge our sins, once for all time, by sending His own Son to liv a sinless life as a man, in our image... sacrificed for us... the Just for the unjust... the Righteous for the transgressor... the Upright for the fallen.

Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire, Mine ears hast thou opened. Burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required. Then said I, Lo, I come. In the volume of the Book it is written of Me. I delight to do Thy will, O My God. Yea, Thy law is within My heart. ~ Psalm 40:6 through 8.

But Christ being come a high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building. Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by His own blood He entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us. For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh, how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? ~ Hebrews 9:11 through 15.

The penalty of sin is death. Jesus Christ, “the Lamb of God”, has caused death to “pass over” us because of His sacrifice for our sin, having died in our place on the cross.

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. ~ 1 Corinthians 5:7.

The great sacrifice of the Messiah, Jesus Christ, our Passover, was of such a kind, that only through the power of God, by His Messiah, could the sins of mankind be atoned for, by the precious blood of His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, the perfect Lamb of God without spot or blemish... sacrificed for all through His death, even death on the cross... so all might be raised from death, having been freed from the power of sin which is death, by the resurrection of Christ Jesus, whereby He abolished sin and conquered death, forever. This is the New Covenant.

And for this cause He is the Mediator of the New Testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance. ~ Hebrews 9:14 through 15.

God would save His people from His wrath and judgment by the blood of a sacrificial lamb.
In the Old Testament, God required the blood of a sacrificial lamb to spare His people from His wrath and the judgment He would pour out on Egypt. Likewise, by the New Covenant, we are spared from God’s wrath and judgment by the shed blood of Christ, our Passover.

For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment. I am the Lord. 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. ~ Exodus 12:12 through 13.

But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him. ~ Romans 5:8 through 9.

I am He who is called the Lamb of God, the Lamb from Heaven without any spot or blemish, given as a ransom for many so that death will pass over you, and you shall liv forever. My blood is the blood shed for you to place upon your door, so you may be spared. No one goes to the Father unless they eat of the flesh of the Lamb, and drink His blood. Do this in remembrance of Me and My covenant with you, for I have already accomplished it and sealed it forevermore upon My rising. I am no longer the Lamb, but the Risen One, the Holy One of Israel, the Lion of the tribe of Judah. The Lamb was slain, My people redeemed in all the earth. I am risen forever and ever, clothed in glory and praise. So too will My people be clothed in glory, for they are cleansed and will be like the angels of Heaven in that Day.
Your Redeemer livs... death has passed over you. The Lamb was slain so you might liv. Eat and drink and give thanks in remembrance of Me, and I shall remember you and gather you up and hold you close to Me. Amen. ~ Jesus speaking. [Excerpt from “I Am the Passover and Its Lamb... A New Covenant With Men”, Volume One, Letters from God and His Christ].

Through the precious blood of Christ, we will escape not only God’s “judgment or condemnation” for our sins, but we will also escape His impending “judgments”, (John 5:24), during the seven-year period of tribulation, to come, (Daniel 9:27), being taken up to Heaven for a short time*, while God’s judgments fall upon the whole earth, (Book of Revelation). *Please see the “Rapture or Gathering Up” Study at, trumpet call of god dot calm, for more information.

The Sacrificial Lamb must be a lamb without blemish, (sin).
In Exodus 12:5, God required that the sacrificial lamb be without spot or blemish. Likewise, we are told many times in the New Testament, that Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God, was without spot or blemish, meaning He was completely void of sin.

Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year. Ye shall take it out from the sheep, or from the goats. ~ Exodus 12:5.

Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a Lamb without blemish and without spot. ~ 1 Peter 1:18 through 19.

For He hath made Him to be sin for us, who knew no sin, that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him. ~ 2 Corinthians 5:21.

How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, purge your consciences from dead works to serve the living God? ~ Hebrews 9:14.

I gave them the Lamb, without blemish, for them to sacrifice for the cleansing of all men. ~ God speaking. [Excerpt from “Wisdom Given to Timothy Regarding Those Who Killed Jesus the Christ” , Volume One, Letters from God and His Christ].

I am He who is called the Lamb of God, the Lamb from Heaven without any spot or blemish, given as a ransom for many so that death will pass over you, and you shall liv forever. ~ Jesus speaking. [Excerpt from “I Am the Passover and Its Lamb... A New Covenant With Men”, Volume One, Letters from God and His Christ].

[Jesus speaking.] Hear the Word of the Lord, the Risen One, your Redeemer: I had come to you as a man, clothed in the flesh of men, humble, My glory set aside, God become man, living as all have lived in the body, but not as man livs in the spirit... for I am clean, having no sin in My body nor in My spirit, having obeyed every command of the Father... blameless.
[God speaking.] Behold the Lamb of God! Without spot or blemish, sent to die for the sins of the world, bearing the full weight of transgression in His own body. My Son, You are, and will always be, the Risen Lamb of God, whereby You took the leaven of the world, having completely unleavened all men once for all time by Your blood, having been the perfect sacrifice for sin, acceptable to God, whereby men have been reconciled to the Father... they themselves becoming, once again, My sons and daughters, free to enter the Garden and My love from which they shall never again be separated... their new life lived in, and for, Christ Jesus, the Lord and Savior, in whom I am well pleased. ~ God and Jesus speaking. [Excerpt from “Unleavened”, Volume Five, Letters from God and His Christ].

Thus says the Everlasting who would be man, Emmanuel, born into the world, of a virgin, the chosen vessel by which the salvation of man comes, as a babe, growing, living as men, yet remaining unspotted from the world and sin, completely blameless... Amen. ~ Jesus speaking. [Excerpt from “He is Risen!” , Volume Five, Letters from God and His Christ].

The Israelites would be responsible for killing the sacrificial lamb.
The Passover lamb was to be killed by “the congregation of Israel”. God stated this in His instructions regarding Passover in Exodus 12. Likewise, the nation of Israel was responsible for the crucifixion death of Jesus Christ.

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. ~ Exodus 12:6.

When the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put Him to death. ~ Matthew 27:1.

But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus. ~ Matthew 27:20.

Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let Him be crucified. And the governor said, Why, what evil hath He done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let Him be crucified. When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person. See ye to it. Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children. ~ Matthew 27:22 through 25.

Those, who say the Jews condemned The Christ Jesus to death, speak rightly, for I, God Almighty, know all the works of men, and in that day did I harden their hearts to accomplish My purpose in the salvation of men. In the days of Abraham, even unto Moses, did I establish My people as the chosen to give sacrifice for the cleansing of sin... And so they only, and only they, did I chose to carry out My will, according to the New Testament I have set forth with all men in Christ Jesus. I gave them The Lamb, without blemish, for them to sacrifice for the cleansing of all men. No other nation would I allow to carry out My will in this, so all that written by the prophets of old would come to pass, and all that written of The Son of Man would be fulfilled in Christ Jesus. ~ God speaking. [Excerpt from “Wisdom Given to Timothy Regarding Those Who Killed Jesus the Christ”, Volume One, Letters from God and His Christ].

Nothing of the sacrificial lamb should remain until morning.
God commanded the Israelites, regarding the Passover meal, that none of it should remain until morning. Likewise, Jesus’ body was removed from the cross near evening, before the beginning of a high holy day, the Feast of Unleavened Bread.

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. ~ Exodus 12:10.

The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that Sabbath day was a high day,) besought Pilate their legs might be broken, and they might be taken away. ~ John 19:31.

When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus’ disciple. He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered. And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out of the rock. And he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.” ~ Matthew 27:57 through 60.

We are to eat unleavened bread with the Passover meal.
In Exodus 12, God commanded the Israelites to eat unleavened bread with the Passover feast. Also, according to the New Covenant, we are to partake in the breaking of unleavened bread with our Passover meal. This signifies our acceptance of Jesus Christ’s sacrifice for our sins. For He was our perfect, sinless sacrifice, the “unleavened bread”, broken for us for the forgiveness of our sins, which is also signified in the eating of the unleavened bread, that we are now also unleavened, having obtained forgiveness of our sins through Him.

And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire and unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat it. ~ Exodus 12:8.

Then came the day of Unleavened Bread, when the Passover must be killed. And He sent Peter and John, saying, go and prepare us the Passover, that we may eat. And they said unto Him, Where wilt Thou that we prepare? And He said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer... And He took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves... And He took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is My body which is given for you. This do in remembrance of Me. Likewise, also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in My blood, which is shed for you. ~ Luke 22:7 through 9, 15, 17, and 19 through 20.

I am that Bread of Life...This is the bread which cometh down from Heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die. ~ John 6:48 and 50.

I am the living bread which came down from Heaven. If any man eat of this bread, he shall liv forever. And the bread that I will give is My flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. ~ John 6:51.

This is that bread which came down from Heaven. Not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead. He that eateth of this bread shall liv forever. ~ John 6:58.

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. ~ 1 Corinthians 5:7.

The feast of the sacrificial lamb is called the Passover.
This feast was called the Passover because the Lord “passed over” Israel during the night of the fourteenth. Likewise is Christ appropriately called our “Passover”, because by His shed blood, God’s wrath will “pass over” us.

It is the Lord’s Passover. For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment. I am the Lord. And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye 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. ~ Exodus 12:11 through 13.

For even Christ, our Passover, is sacrificed for us. Therefore, let us keep the feast. ~
1 Corinthians 5:7 through 8.

My blood is the blood shed for you to place upon your door, so you may be spared... I am the Passover... for he, who believes in Me, has everlasting life. ~ Jesus speaking. [Excerpt from “I Am the Passover and Its Lamb... A New Covenant With Men”, Volume One, Letters from God and His Christ].

My children, Jesus the Christ, Yesh ooah is His name, is your Passover! ~ God speaking. [Excerpt from “Keep the Passover, Even All Seven Holy Days Set Forth by the Father, and You Will Begin to Know and Understand the Glory of God and His Christ”, Volume Six, Letters from God and His Christ].

Only those, who were ceremonially “clean” and “circumcised”, were allowed to partake of the Passover. Strangers were not allowed to eat of the Passover.
In the Passover of the Old Testament, God commanded that His people be “ceremonially clean” and also be circumcised. He also told the Israelites that no stranger may partake of the Passover. Likewise, today, we are not to take the observation of the Feast lightly. We are to observe the Passover, of the New Covenant, with reverence and joy and thankfulness for Christ and His great sacrifice. This spiritual cleanliness intimates the “clean” of the Old Testament Passover. We must be spiritually “clean”, truly being “circumcised” in our hearts, to partake of the Passover of the New Covenant. To observe the Passover, unworthily, is sin.

And when a stranger shall sojourn with thee, and will keep the Passover to the Lord, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land. For no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof. ~ Exodus 12:48.

But he is a Jew, which is one outwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter, whose praise is not of men, but of God. ~ Romans 2:29.

Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. ~ 2 Corinthians 7:1.

Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye doubleminded. ~ James 4:8.

If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. ~ 1 John 1:9.

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. ~ 1 Corinthians 5:8.

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. ~ 1 Corinthians 11:7.

Passover shall be unto God’s people a memorial.
God tells the Israelites, even from the very first Passover, that they would keep this day as a memorial forever. In the same manner, we are to observe Passover, with the new symbols instituted by Christ, as a memorial for Christ’s crucifixion. He was crucified on Passover and has become our Passover. Therefore, we, as believers, memorialize Him by observing Passover. He tells us to do this in remembrance of Him.

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. ~ Exodus 12:1-14.

And He took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is My body, which is given for you. This do in remembrance of Me. ~ Luke 22:19.

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. 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. 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. For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do show the Lord’s death till He come. 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. ~
1 Corinthians 11:23 through 27.

So, My children of Zion, celebrate Passover, but not as in the days of Moses, for even I, Christ the Lord, did keep this Sabbath before My death... and by My death and resurrection as the Lamb, did I become the new Passover, sacrificed for all. Celebrate Passover as a remembrance and as a thanksgiving of you and I united. For in the past, you were separated from Me...now we are together again, forever in the Kingdom prepared by the Father. ~ Jesus speaking. [Excerpt from “I Am the Passover and Its Lamb... A New Covenant With Men”, Volume One, Letters from God and His Christ].

I am He who is called the Lamb of God, the Lamb from Heaven without any spot or blemish, given as a ransom for many so that death will pass over you, and you shall liv forever. My blood is the blood shed for you to place upon your door, so you may be spared. No one goes to the Father unless they eat of the flesh of the Lamb, and drink His blood. Do this in remembrance of Me and My covenant with you, for I have already accomplished it and sealed it forevermore upon My rising. I am no longer the Lamb, but the Risen One, the Holy One of Israel, the Lion of the tribe of Judah. The Lamb was slain, My people redeemed in all the earth. I am risen forever and ever, clothed in glory and praise. So too will My people be clothed in glory, for they are cleansed and will be like the angels of Heaven in that Day.
Your Redeemer livs...death has passed over you. The Lamb was slain so you might liv. Eat and drink and give thanks in remembrance of Me, and I shall remember you and gather you up and hold you close to Me. Amen. ~ Jesus speaking. [Excerpt from “I Am the Passover and Its Lamb... A New Covenant With Men”, Volume One, Letters from God and His Christ].

Through faith, we keep Passover.
Through faith, Moses kept Passover, believing that God would indeed deliver him and the Israelites from Egypt. Likewise, should Christ’s church observe the Passover with faith in God and faith in Christ, fully accepting and acknowledging Jesus’ sacrifice for us, until He comes again.

Through faith he kept the Passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest He that destroyed the firstborn should touch them. ~ Hebrews 11:28.

For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do show the Lord’s death till He come. ~ 1 Corinthians 11:26.

Jesus Christ Is The “Lamb Of God”.

Jesus Christ, our Passover, is the Lamb of God. He is the Lamb, without blemish or sin, slain for our sakes so we may have eternal life with Him. Through Jesus Christ’s own shed blood, He reconciled us to our Father in Heaven, allowing us once again be the children of God....Thank you, Jesus!

The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold The Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. ~ John 1:29.

And I beheld, and lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. And He came and took the book out of the right hand of Him that sat upon the throne. And when He had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odors, which are the prayers of saints. ~ Revelation 5:6 through 8.

Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing. And every creature which is in Heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honor, and glory, and power, be unto Him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb forever and ever. ~ Revelation 5:12 through 13.

Behold the Lamb of God! Without spot or blemish, sent to die for the sins of the world, bearing the full weight of transgression in His own body. My Son, You are, and will always be, the Risen Lamb of God, whereby You took the leaven of the world, having completely unleavened all men once for all time by Your blood, having been the perfect sacrifice for sin, acceptable to God, whereby men have been reconciled to the Father... they themselves becoming, once again, My sons and daughters, free to enter the Garden and My love from which they shall never again be separated... their new life lived in, and for, Christ Jesus, the Lord and Savior, in whom I am well pleased. ~ God speaking. [Excerpt from “Unleavened”, Volume Five, Letters from God and His Christ].

End of Part 4.

Part 3: The Passover of the New Testament.

Jesus, Himself, kept the Passover prior to and during His ministry. His parents, His disciples and His followers also kept the Passover before and after the crucifixion.
However, after Jesus’ crucifixion, the followers of Christ now observed Passover as Christ had taught them, in remembrance of Him. They did not keep the Passover of the Old Testament but observed the new Passover, with the new symbols set forth by Christ, of which Jesus Christ had fulfilled on the cross.

The Passover Feast was observed before Jesus’ crucifixion, by Jesus, His parents and His followers.

Now His parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the Passover. And when He was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem after the custom of the feast. And when they had fulfilled the days, as they returned, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem. And Joseph and His mother knew not of it. ~ Luke 2:41 through 43.

And the Jews’ Passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. ~ John 2:13.
Now when He was in Jerusalem at the Passover, in the feast day, many believed in His name, when they saw the miracles which He did. ~ John 2:23.

The Passover Feast was observed before Jesus’ crucifixion, by Jesus, His parents and His followers.

Now the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying unto Him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for Thee to eat the Passover? And He said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand; I will keep the Passover at thy house with My disciples. And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready the Passover. Now when the even was come, He sat down with the twelve... And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is My body. And He took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; for this is My blood of the New Testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. ~ Matthew 26:17 through 20 and 26 through 28.

The Passover was observed after Jesus’ crucifixion, with the new symbols set forth by Christ... the New Covenant.
Jesus, Himself, knowing He came into the world not to condemn the world, but to save it by being a living sacrifice for the forgiveness of sin, the Lamb of God, instituted the new Passover symbols we should observe in remembrance of Him, our “Passover”. (1 Corinthians 5:7). Below we see an example of the Corinthians keeping Passover, though disrespectfully, with the apostle, Paul, correcting them and teaching them how to keep it properly, with their hearts in the right place.

When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord’s supper. For in eating everyone taketh before another his own supper. And one is hungry, and another is drunken. What? Have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? Or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you in this? I praise you not. 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. 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. 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. For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till He come. 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. But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup. For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body. For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep. For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged. But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world. Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, tarry one for another. And if any man hunger, let him eat at home; that ye come not together unto condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I come. ~ 1 Corinthians 11:20 through 34.

End of Part 3.

God’s forgiveness can be summed up in one name - YahShua HaMashiach, Jesus The Christ; and by one
event. - His sacrifice on the cross. This sacrifice was of such a kind, that only by the power of God, through
the Messiah, could the sins of mankind be atoned for. With the precious blood of God’s only Son, Jesus
Christ, the perfect Lamb without spot or blemish, all nations were sprinkled. Jesus laid down His life, even
enduring death on the cross, so all who believe and accept His sacrifice would be freed from the power of
death, which is sin, thereby granting them eternal life...
YahShua, the Greatest of All Loves.
The greatest love of all is to die for those who hate you. For I did not come just to die for My friends and
those who love Me... I came to give up My life for those who hate Me, and for those who do not know Me,
and for those who know of Me but wish to have nothing to do with Me, who hate My name and the sound
of My voice, so in time they may come to know Me and hear Me. And when this day comes, there will be
great rejoicing, for I had already saved them and forgiven them by My blood, though they did not ask. ~
Jesus. [Letters from God and His Christ, Volume Six. - Understand Love, Know Forgiveness... Partake of the
Whole Fruit of the Spirit and Make It Part of You].
Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; Yet we
esteemed Him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. But He was
wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities;
The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we
are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; We have turned, every
one, to his own way; and the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us
all. ~ Isaiah 53:4-6.
... Just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and
to give His life a ransom for many. ~ Matthew 20:28.
Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures
forever. Oh, give thanks to the God of gods! For His mercy endures
forever. Oh, give thanks to the Lord of lords! For His mercy endures
forever: ~ Psalm 136:1-3.

Do not anguish over your past sins, for I have washed them away... All of them... Past sin, present sin, and yes,
your sins of tomorrow. ~ Jesus. [Letters from God and His Christ, Volume One. - Jesus Christ’s Love and Forgiveness
Are With You].
Blessed are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven, and whose sins are covered; Blessed is the man to whom the
Lord shall not impute sin. ~ Romans 4:7-8.
All those forgiven must be taken up... The Father does not punish those He has forgiven through Me, lest My
sacrifice be made of non-effect and all are punished and judged. If all are punished and judged, then none are
forgiven. Know this, all are forgiven. It is only their rejection of the Spirit and My sacrifice, in which they are
already forgiven, that leeds them into punishment and judgment. ~ Jesus [Letters from God and His Christ, Volume
Three - Restoration in Marriage]
There are three that testify on My Son, Christ and Jesus’ behalf: They are the Spirit, the Water and the Blood; and
by these three shall you be saved. These three are in agreement, and are one, leading one way along the road
called Holy. ~ God [Letters from God and His Christ, Volume Four. - “One”].
“There was a certain creditor who had two debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty. And
when they had nothing with which to repay, he freely forgave them both. Tell Me, therefore, which of them will
love him more?” Simon answered and said, “I suppose the one whom he forgave more.” And He said to him,
“You have rightly judged.” Then He turned to the woman and said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered
your house; you gave Me no water for My feet, but she has washed My feet with her tears and wiped them with
the hair of her head. You gave Me no kiss, but this woman has not ceased to kiss My feet since the time I came
in. You did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman has anointed My feet with fragrant oil. Therefore I say
to you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves
little.” ~ Luke 7:41-47.
NOTE: The verses above are similar to Luke 18 below, where Jesus teaches the same lesson, but
according to a humble and penitent man, compared with a man who thinks himself righteous.
Those, who are forgiven much, love the Lord more than those who are forgiven little... Just as
those who humble themselves, begging for mercy, love the Lord more because of His mercies.
The high-minded man loves the Lord less, because he does not feel he is in need of a Savior or
the mercies of God..
“Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood and
prayed thus with himself, ‘God, I thank You that I am not like other men--extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even
as this tax collector. I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I possess.’ And the tax collector, standing afar off,
would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me a sinner!’ I
tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be
humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.” ~ Luke 18:10-14.
Who comes to love Me the most? Those whom I have forgiven a little or those forgiven much?... For this reason did
I come into the world - to save the afflicted who are gravely ill. In Me shall all find healing from sin, by My death
suffered on the cross, raised to life the third day... As all those who shall also receive life in the third day. ~ Jesus
[Letters from God and His Christ, Volume Six - Let the Lord Lead and His Word Be Your Guide].

...Come now and confess all that you have done, and ask My forgiveness. Cast all that has become burdensome
upon Me. I shall carry it for you. Oh beloved, open your heart to Me, and let Me fill it to overflowing with the
Water of Life. Trina, My most precious one, you have done wrong, yes, as have all. Not one upon the earth has
done right. Know this beyond question... You are forgiven, for your name was written in My book before the
very foundation of the earth. ~ Jesus. [Letters from God and His Christ, Volume One. - The Seas Rage; The Earth, It
Trembles... All is Quiet For Those Who Rest In the Lord].
And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him,
having forgiven you all trespasses, having wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was
contrary to us. And He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross. ~ Colossians 2:13-14.
He has sinned as you have, as all have, and is forgiven equally to you and those who have sinned. Even those
who have sinned greater or lesser than Timothy are forgiven equally of My Covenant. All sin is sin and requires
forgiveness leading to salvation. ~ Jesus. [Letters from God and His Christ, Volume Two. - Harken to Those Who
God Has Sent to You, For They Prepare the Way of Christ’s Coming and Will Guide Many Out of the Storm and
Many More Through the Storm].
Thus says the Lord to His servant: You are forgiven your sins, by the blood shed for you, by My only begotten Son. By
His blood, alone, are you made worthy. By His suffering were you cleansed. By His own stripes were you healed for
today’s sins, for yesterday’s sins and those of tomorrow. One, who asks anything in Jesus’ own name, shall surely have
it, starting with forgiveness of sins. ~ God [Letters from God and His Christ, Volume Six - Men of Promise].
Though we remain imperfect, yet by our belief in God’s only Son, accepting His sacrifice for the forgiveness of
our sins, are we made righteous. Though we yet stumble, by our belief and love for Christ, we will surely be lifted
up... We shall not fall. By grace we are saved... The gift of God in Christ Jesus. Amen. ~ Timothy. [Letters from God
and His Christ, Volume Six - A Letter from Timothy, Inspired by the Spirit - To Elder Moses].
Therefore let it be known to you, brethren, that through this Man is preached to you the forgiveness of sins; and by
Him everyone who believes is justified from all things from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.
~ Acts 13:38-39.
We have entered into an inward spiritual covenant, the circumcision in our hearts, a freedom from sin by
forgiveness, an everlasting atonement in the blood of Christ. ~ Timothy, Inspired by the Spirit [Letters from God
and His Christ, Volume Four - Love, Forgiveness and the Law (The Ten Commandments)].
Beloved, you are beloved of the Lord and have become My disciple; and if you ask of Me forgiveness, you shall
surely have it for even all you have done... Yet if he comes to Me, and asks of Me forgiveness, a continual washing
in My own blood, he shall have it. Even if he comes to Me seven times, even seven times seventy times, I shall
forgive him. I forgive all those who come to Me... So then, beloved, come to Me... I shall forgive you. ~ Jesus.
[Letters from God and His Christ, Volume Six. - Blessed Are Those Who Overcome For My Name’s Sake].
I write to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for His name’s sake. ~ 1 John 2:12.
Let all forgiven be rewarded equally to their forgiveness which is equal. ~ God. [Letters from God and His Christ,
Volume Two - God is Sovereign].
Yes, I have died for the forgiveness of your sins... Those of today, yesterday, and those sins of tomorrow. Yet man
does continually stumble in this world, and so he must continually come to Me... And even seventy times seven
times shall I cleanse him and lift him up. ~ Jesus [Letters from God and His Christ, Volume Six - Born Again].

You speak without full understanding of the mercies of God, fulfilled in Christ. You only need look to the thief on the
cross and have understanding. A man, having never known baptism by water, nor stepping foot in any church, was
assured of salvation, having asked the Christ with a true and penitent heart. In that same moment, He was forgiven and
will enter into paradise at the Last Day, as Jesus had spoken to him that day, saying, “In truth I speak to you this day, you
shall be with Me in paradise.” ~ God. [Letters from God and His Christ, Volume Six - To the Church at the Lord’s Right
Hand... Hear the Word of the Lord].
I will deliver you from the Jewish people, as well as from the Gentiles, to whom I now send you, to open their eyes, in
order to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins
and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me. ~ Acts 26:17-18.
All those, without sin, liv forever and suffer not. And so I was without sin and abide forever, and came to carry the
infirmities of those who came to Me in faith, asking that I should heal them. In the same way, I carried their sin, though
I had no part in sin Myself. How can one, who is in need of a physician, heal others? Or one, who has sinned, bear
and forgive the sins of another? Trent, I was completely clean, so by this, you and all those who seek Me, might also
be clean. Remember and understand My words, spoken and written down in the Scriptures of Truth: No man takes
My life from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have the power to lay it down, and I have the power to take it up again.
This commandment have I received of My Father... I am and will always be the perfect Lamb without spot or blemish...
Given up for many... Sacrificed... I am the restoration of all things. ~ Jesus. [Letters from God and His Christ, Volume Six.
- Whatsoever You Have Done to the Least of These, My Children, Assuredly I Tell You, You Have Done It Even Unto Me,
Their Father, Says the Lord Your Redeemer].
Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.” And they divided His garments and cast
lots. ~ Luke 23:34.
Note: Even during the crucifixion, Jesus was our Advocate (1 John 2:1), asking the Father to forgive
even those who were responsible for His suffering (Luke 23:34). If we were in His place, would we
have done the same? Unfortunately, most people would not. Truly the Lord’s ways are not our ways
(Romans 11:33)...
By grace are we saved (Ephesians 2:8).
Behold the Lamb of God!... Without spot or blemish sent to die for the sins of the world, bearing the full weight of
transgression in His own body. My Son, you are, and will always be, the Risen Lamb of God, whereby you took the
leaven of the world, having completely unleavened all men once for all time by your blood, having been the perfect
sacrifice for sin, acceptable to God, whereby men have been reconciled to the Father... They themselves becoming
once again My sons and daughters free to enter the Garden and My love, which they shall never again be separated...
Their new life lived in and for Christ Jesus, the Lord and Savior, in whom I am well pleased. ~ God. [Letters from God
and His Christ, Volume Five. - Unleavened].
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly
places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without
blame before Him in love, having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good
pleasure of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He has made us accepted in the Beloved. In Him
we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace which He made
to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence, having made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His
good pleasure which He purposed in Himself, that in the dispensation of the fullness of the times He might gather
together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on earth--in Him. ~ Ephesians 1:3-10.

And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be
forgiven. Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective,
fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. ~ James 5:15-16.
All sin is sin, and requires forgiveness. All sin is not equal, only forgiveness is equal. All sin is forgiven through the
cross. Only the people’s rejection of that sacrifice leaves them in the dark, separated from God. ~ God. [Letters
from God and His Christ, Volume Two - Those of Steadfast Faith in Christ are Free From Doubt; In Them Sin Has
Also Vanished].
My beloved daughter, I have both redeemed and forgiven you, by Him I sent to suffer and die for you. It
is only your rejection of that Truth that leads you into temptation. ~ God [Letters from God and His Christ,
Volume Four - “One”]
Assuredly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they may utter; but he
who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation”-- because
they said, “He has an unclean spirit.” ~ Mark 3:28-30.
I have forgiven all their sins!... Now, yesterday’s, and tomorrow’s... Nor do I remember them. ~ Jesus. [Letters from
God and His Christ, Volume Seven. - The Master’s Table].
For this reason we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you may be filled
with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; that you may walk worthy of the Lord,
fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; strengthened
with all might, according to His glorious power, for all patience and longsuffering with joy; giving thanks to the
Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light. He has delivered us from
the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, in whom we have redemption
through His blood, the forgiveness of sins. ~ Colossians 1:9-14.
...There is no sin too great that I have not forgiven you. I sent My Son to die for you and raised Him so you may
have eternal life with Me. Repent, and accept My Son, and I will separate your sins from you as far as the east is
from the west, and remember your iniquities no more. Open your heart to Me, and I will fill it with running waters
of joy, love and peace. ~ God. [Letters from God and His Christ, Volume One. - Boundless Love].
For your repentance to Me and love for the Son has caused me to remember your sin no more. It is separated from
you as far as the east is from the west. ~ God. [Letters from God and His Christ, Volume One. - A Warning About
Falling Back Into Sin and the Ways of Demons].
Forgiveness.
The God of our fathers raised up Jesus whom you murdered by hanging on a tree. Him God has exalted to His
right hand to be Prince and Savior, to give repentance to Israel and forgiveness of sins. ~ Acts 5:30-31.
The Lord lives, and forgives those who call on His name with all humility and supplication. Come to Me and
repent. To this end I gave My life as a ransom and payment in full for your sins past, present and those sins of
tomorrow. Now go out My beloved sheep, forgiven in My blood, and sin no more. ~ Jesus. [Letters from God and
His Christ, Volume One - Return Home, Your Father Calls].
All sin is sin and requires forgiveness, which is equal, as is the reward equal, given freely to all who ask. ~ God.
[Letters from God and His Christ, Volume Two. - Let the Lord Lead, You Only Need Follow... Let Go of Your Pride].

Even so, call on My name in all repentance and faith and you shall liv, for I first died for you and was raised so
you may also be as I am and dwell with Me where I dwell. ~ Jesus. [Letters from God and His Christ, Volume Two
- Innocence Destroyed in Evil Arrogance, With Slothful and Wicked Ignorance, Wrought by False Truth, Permitted
Under “Human Rights”].
Thus says the Christ, the Word of God.. Do you not understand I have broken all the cords that
bind you, and freed you from your chains of imprisonment? Yet you say, ‘Cast these cords from us’?
Do you not know the power and mercies of God?... I am that power, through which God has shown
His mercy... Beaten, mocked, bruised, scourged, nailed to the cross, pierced and buried, stricken by
God... Only to rise again on the third day, so you would be spared and healed in My blood, shed for
your transgressions against God.
Thus says the Lord God, the Only God: My mercies endure forever, for all who partake and accept of
My mercies. For these shall liv forever, abiding in the light of the Lord, because of My Mercy sent to
them. There is none other, nor any other way found by which you may enter into the love and mercy
of God. One Son given up for many... One Way to sanctification and life, life without end... For I so
loved the world, I gave My only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish, but
have everlasting life. ~ Jesus and God. [Letters from God and His Christ, Volume Five. - Stricken].

Part 2. Forgiving Others.
“Forgive everyone who sins against you, and I shall also forgive you,” says the Lord.
Are we only blessed by having obeyed God, knowing that disobeying God is sin? Or has God blessed us with
a deeper understanding? To obey God is righteousness, but to understand why we obey is a greater joy and a
blessing. We must forgive all others, so their sins against us can be released... And in this are we also freed,
by letting go of anger and not giving into hate. By allowing ourselves to be filled with anger and hate, we are
prevented from the fruit of the Spirit, having consumed the corrupt fruit of the devil. Give up hate, and judge not
your neighbor; neither hold onto trespasses. There is no forgiveness in the judging of those who have wronged
us. The person, who does not judge, has already forgiven them in their own heart. Trust in God! He is the only
Righteous Judge. We are the judged, having passed from judgment into life, by the grace of God, through Christ.
Rather, let us be fully converted in our hearts, embracing complete forgiveness, as Jesus has completely forgiven
us and those who have also sinned against us, by His death on the cross.
In absolute forgiveness is there also absolute freedom... Complete joy.
Yet I say to you, forgive him and love him. Honor your father despite his iniquities and wrongdoings. For the Son
has taken his punishment and forgiven him, if he so chooses to receive it. Therefore, as I have forgiven you in the
blood of My most beloved Son, also must you forgive those who have sinned against you. ~ God [Letters from
God and His Christ, Volume One - See With the Eyes of Christ]
I have commanded you to love one another and forgive those who have hurt you, as I have done for you. ~ Jesus.
[Letters from God and His Christ,. Volume Six. - The Kingdom of God and His Christ Is Coming... Awake!].
Tear down these walls and forgive. ~ Jesus. [Letters from God and His Christ., Volume Six. - Love One Another
and Obey All I Command You, Says the Lord Your Redeemer].
Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering;
bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ
forgave you, so you also must do. ~ Colossians 3:12-13.
As for they whom you love and also hate, control your anger. Careful, I say to you. Hate that which is against
God... Do not hate them who were created by God. For He is rich in mercy and forgiveness. ~ Jesus. [Letters
from God and His Christ,. Volume One. - The Servants of God Have Been Sent Out to Blow Their Trumpets to the
Nations... Hear Them, for the Spirit Dwells Within Them].
But if anyone has caused grief, he has not grieved me, but all of you to some extent--not to be too severe. This
punishment which was inflicted by the majority is sufficient for such a man, so that, on the contrary, you ought
rather to forgive and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one be swallowed up with too much sorrow. Therefore I
urge you to reaffirm your love to him. For to this end I also wrote, that I might put you to the test, whether you
are obedient in all things. Now whom you forgive anything, I also forgive. For if indeed I have forgiven anything, I
have forgiven that one for your sakes in the presence of Christ, lest Satan should take advantage of us; for we are
not ignorant of his devices. ~ 2 Corinthians 2:5-11.

I forgive you for those things spoken evil of me, as I am commanded by Him who has forgiven me in His blood
and suffering, who also has forgiven you if you so choose to accept that forgiveness. For we are commanded
that we forgive every one who sins against us, as we are forgiven by Him who all have sinned against. ~ Timothy.
[Letters from God and His Christ,. Volume Three. - The Word of God is Truth... Leading to Life].
And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God in Christ forgave you. ~ Ephesians 4:32
Yet one more command do I give to you, of which you know: Forgive. Do not just speak it aloud or say you have
done so. For it is written, and remains standing, “For if you do not forgive even every one who has trespassed
against you, neither will My Father in Heaven forgive you.” ~ Jesus. [Letters from God and His Christ,. Volume Six,
- Love One Another and Obey All I Command You, Says the Lord Your Redeemer].
For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men
their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. ~ Matthew 6:14-15
It is the strong man that chooses love and forgiveness through sacrifice of himself and his own desires, not
following after the ungodly men of this world. His justification is in the Lord and he chooses to follow Me... in My
very footsteps. ~ Jesus, [Letters from God and His Christ, Volume Six. - Keep Not the Company of the Wicked, This
is Where All Seeds of Dissension Grow].
And forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us. And do not lead us into temptation,
But deliver us from the evil one. ~ Luke 11:4.
Many in your life have sinned against you, and all have sinned against Me. Have I not forgiven them through My
Son’s sacrifice? ~ God. [Letters from God and His Christ, Volume One. -The Christian Path].
I ask you to love those who have hurt you; and to love them is to forgive them as I have forgiven them and you.
~ Jesus. [Letters from God and His Christ, Volume Six. - Understand Love, Know Forgiveness, Partake of the Whole
Fruit of the Spirit and Make It Part of You].
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. ~ Matthew 6:12
And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven
may also forgive you your trespasses. But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your
trespasses. ~ Mark 11:25-26
Yet in their heart, of which I know, they have not confessed; neither have they let go of offenses; neither have they
forgiven even everyone their sins, which have been wrought against them; neither have they given up that which
I require; neither, in their weakness, has My strength been made perfect in them. ~ Jesus. [Letters from God and
His Christ, Volume Six. - Whatsoever You Have Done to the Least of These, My Children, Assuredly I Tell You, You
Have Done It Even Unto Me, Their Father, Says the Lord Your Redeemer].
Take heed to yourselves. If your brother sins against you, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him. And if he
sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times in a day returns to you, saying, ‘I repent,’ you shall forgive
him. ~ Luke 17:3-4.
My commandment to you is to love those who have wronged you and forgive them, starting with your own self;
and be patient with those whom you have wronged. ~ Jesus [Letters from God and His Christ, Volume Six. - Bear
Fruit According to the Spirit of Truth].

Do you not know the Word of My mouth, in where I taught you, saying, “You must forgive everyone who has
sinned against you, and if you will not, neither can My Father in Heaven forgive you your trespasses”? ~ Jesus.
[Letters from God and His Christ, Volume Seven. - The Master’s Table].
“But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, and
pray for those who spitefully use you. To him who strikes you on the one cheek, offer the other also. And from
him who takes away your cloak, do not withhold your tunic either. Give to everyone who asks of you. And from
him who takes away your goods do not ask them back. And just as you want men to do to you, you also do to
them likewise. But if you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who
love them. And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the
same. And if you lend to those from whom you hope to receive back, what credit is that to you? For even sinners
lend to sinners to receive as much back. But love your enemies, do good, and lend, hoping for nothing in return;
and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High. For He is kind to the unthankful and evil.
Therefore be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful. Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn
not, and you shall not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. Give, and it will be given to you: good
measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same
measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.” ~ Luke 6:27-38
Remember the words of your Savior also, you shall forgive your brother even seventy times seven times, as I have
forgiven you. ~ God/ [Letters from God and His Christ, Volume One - Stand Firm in the Face of Those Who Would
Mock You for My Name’s Sake].
Then Peter came to Him and said, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to
seven times?” Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven. Therefore
the kingdom of heaven is like a certain king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants. And when he had
begun to settle accounts, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents. But as he was not able to
pay, his master commanded that he be sold, with his wife and children and all that he had, and that payment be
made. The servant therefore fell down before him, saying, ‘Master, have patience with me, and I will pay you all.’
Then the master of that servant was moved with compassion, released him, and forgave him the debt. But that
servant went out and found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii; and he laid hands on him
and took him by the throat, saying, ‘Pay me what you owe!’ So his fellow servant fell down at his feet and begged
him, saying, ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you all.’ And he would not, but went and threw him into
prison till he should pay the debt. So when his fellow servants saw what had been done, they were very grieved,
and came and told their master all that had been done. Then his master, after he had called him, said to him, ‘You
wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me. Should you not also have had compassion on
your fellow servant, just as I had pity on you?’ And his master was angry, and delivered him to the torturers until
he should pay all that was due to him. So My heavenly Father also will do to you if each of you, from his heart,
does not forgive his brother his trespasses.” ~ Matthew 18:21-35.

wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me. Should you not also have had compassion on
your fellow servant, just as I had pity on you?’ And his master was angry, and delivered him to the torturers until
he should pay all that was due to him. So My heavenly Father also will do to you if each of you, from his heart,
does not forgive his brother his trespasses.” ~ Matthew 18:21-35.

Part 2: The Passover of the Old Testament.

After many years of cruel slavery under the Egyptian Pharaoh, God heard the cries of the Israelites... “God heard their groaning, and God remembered His covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob. And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God had respect unto them.” (Exodus 2:23-25).
God chose Moses to bring forth His people out of Egypt, and God also chose Aaron, Moses’ brother, to help Moses accomplish this. Moses and Aaron brought the Lord’s request, to free the Israelites, before Pharaoh, but Pharaoh did not respect the Hebrew God, nor did Pharaoh care for the Israelites; and Pharaoh refused God’s command. “Then the Lord said unto Moses, Now shalt thou see what I will do to Pharaoh. For with a strong hand shall he let them go, and with a strong hand shall he drive them out of his land.” (Exodus 6:1). Through many plagues, God demonstrated His incredible power to Pharaoh, but Pharaoh still did not hearken. The final plague, cast on Egypt, was the death of all the firstborn of Egypt, both of men and beasts, (Exodus 11:5), yet the Lord allowed the Israelites to escape this unscathed...

And the Lord spake unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying, This month shall be unto you the beginning of months. It shall be the first month of the year to you. 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 a house. And if the household be too little for the lamb, let him and his neighbor 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. 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 fourteenth day of the same month. And the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it in the evening...

...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. 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 at all with water, but roast with fire; his head with his legs, and with the purtenance thereof. 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. 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. For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment. I am the Lord. And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye 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. 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. ~ Exodus 12:1 through 14.

Through faith, Moses kept the Passover.

Through faith he* kept the Passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest He that destroyed the firstborn should touch them. ~ Hebrews 11:28. [*He, is referring to Moses].

The Passover feast was and is held on the fourteenth day of the first month (Nisan) of the Hebrew calendar.

In the fourteenth day of the first month at even is the Lord’s Passover. ~ Leviticus 23:5.

And in the fourteenth day of the first month is the Passover of the Lord. ~ Numbers 28:16.

Only those Hebrews, who were ceremonially clean, who were circumcised in the flesh, were allowed to partake of the Passover. Strangers were not allowed to eat of the Passover. In Joshua 5, Israel had to be circumcised before they observed the Passover at Gilgal.

And the Lord said unto Moses and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the Passover: There shall no stranger eat thereof. ~ Exodus 12:43.

And when a stranger shall sojourn with thee, and will keep the Passover to the Lord, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land. For no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof. ~ Exodus 12:48.

The Passover feast of the Old Testament commemorates Israel’s deliverance from Egypt.
The Old Testament Passover is a memorial to God passing over the houses of the children in Israel when He smote the firstborn of man and beast in Egypt. The Passover of the Old Testament commemorates Israel’s deliverance from Egypt. The Passover is not a memorial to the exodus of Israel from Egypt.

...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. And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; 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. ~ Exodus 12:13 through 14

Observe the month of Abib, and keep the Passover unto the Lord thy God. For in the month of Abib, the Lord thy God brought thee forth out of Egypt by night... But at the place which the Lord thy God shall choose to place His name in, there thou shalt sacrifice the Passover at even, at the going down of the sun, at the season that thou camest forth out of Egypt. ~ Deuteronomy 16:1 and 6.

Passover involved purification and preparation of many things, but especially of the heart.
In the Old Testament Passover, purification rituals were required for all who partook of the Passover feast. But most importantly, we must “prepare our hearts to seek God” as Hezekiah prayed (verse below).

For they could not keep it, (the Passover), at that time, because the priest had not sanctified themselves sufficiently, neither had the people gathered themselves together to Jerusalem... then they killed the Passover on the fourteenth day of the second month. And the priests and the Levites were ashamed, and sanctified themselves, and brought in the burnt offerings into the house of the Lord... for there were many in the congregation that were not sanctified. Therefore, the Levites had the charge of the killing of the Passovers for everyone that was not clean, to sanctify them unto the Lord. For a multitude of the people, even many of Ephraim, and Manasseh, Issachar, and Zebulun, had not cleansed themselves, yet did they eat the Passover otherwise than it was written. But Hezekiah prayed for them, saying, The good Lord pardon every one that prepareth his heart to seek God, the Lord God of his fathers, though he be not cleansed according to the purification of the sanctuary. And the Lord hearkened to Hezekiah, and healed the people... then the priests, the Levites, arose and blessed the people. And their voice was heard, and their prayer came up to His holy dwelling place, even unto Heaven. ~ 2 Chronicles 30:3,15,17 through 20 and 27.

For the priests and Levites were purified together, all of them were pure, and killed the Passover for all the children of captivity, and for their brethren the priests, and for themselves. And the children of Israel, which were come again out of captivity, and all such as had separated themselves unto them from the filthiness of the heathen of the land, to seek the Lord God of Israel, did eat, and kept the Feast of Unleavened Bread seven days with joy. For the Lord had made them joyful, and turned the heart of the king of Assyria unto them, to strengthen their hands in the work of the house of God, the God of Israel. Ezra 6:20 through 22.

The Israelites were instructed to teach their children regarding the Passover feast.
And it shall come to pass, when your children shall say unto you, What mean ye by this service? That ye shall say, It is the sacrifice of the Lord’s Passover, Who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when He smote the Egyptians, and delivered our houses... ~ Exodus 12:26 through 27.

The Passover lamb was sacrificed and eaten.
The importance of the Passover lamb was evident by the specific instructions God gave regarding the feast. The male lamb was to be without spot or blemish. One Passover lamb was sacrificed for each household unless the household was too small, then they were to share it with their neighbors. The lamb’s blood was sprinkled on the houses. Then the lamb was to be cooked a certain way and eaten a certain way. God even gave instructions as to how to dispose of what was left after the meal... ”let nothing of it remain until the morning; and that which remaineth of it until the morning ye shall burn with fire.” (Exodus 12).

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. ~ Exodus 12:11.

Draw out and take you a lamb according to your families, and kill the Passover. ~ Exodus 12:21.

The Blood of the Passover lamb saved the Israelites from God’s wrath.
God has always required blood sacrifices for the forgiveness of sins, allowing His people to escape His wrath. In the Feast of Passover, God required the blood of a lamb, without spot or blemish, to save His people from wrath.

And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye 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. ~ Exodus 12:13.

God instructed the Israelites to keep this feast forever.
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. ~ Exodus 12:14.

Note: God said we shall keep the Passover Feast forever. We are still to keep this feast today, according to the New Covenant in Christ, who is the fulfillment of Passover. Christ has become our Passover, and we observe this day in remembrance of Him. We are, by no means, to observe Passover as in the Old Testament. This would be to deny Christ’s incredible sacrifice.

So, My children of Zion, celebrate Passover, but not as in the days of Moses, for even I, Christ the Lord, did keep this Sabbath before My death... and by My death and resurrection as the Lamb, did I become the new Passover, sacrificed for all. Celebrate Passover as a remembrance and as a thanksgiving of you and I united. For in the past, you were separated from Me... now we are together again, forever in the kingdom prepared by the Father. Know this, even Passover has passed away... I am the Passover, for he who believes in Me has everlasting life. Keep this Sabbath as commanded by the Father. Passover as it was written in the days of Moses, do it not. Remember Me, and embrace and teach My covenant, and give thanks. The Passover as it was written is a sign post. Read its writing, and have understanding. Take its meaning to heart. Your Redeemer livs... death has passed over you. The Lamb was slain so you might liv. Eat and drink and give thanks in remembrance of Me, and I shall remember you and gather you up, and hold you close to Me. Amen. ~ Jesus speaking. [Excerpt from, “I Am the Passover and Its Lamb... A New Covenant With Men”, Volume One, Letters from God and His Christ.]

Introduction.

God’s ultimate plan in the salvation of mankind begins with, and is built upon, Passover.
The Old Testament Passover, (Exodus 12:5 through 14.) was a foreshadowing of events to come, and by what means we must be redeemed, and forgiven of our sins... ”Our deliverance from the penalty of sin and death... death has passed over us.”

The whole of the Word of God rests solidly on Jesus Christ,
being the Carpenter and Fashioner, Author and Finisher,
the Beginning and the End... the Fulfillment of All Things.

Jesus was with God at creation... Jesus is the Beginning of all things.

And God said, Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. ~ Genesis 1:26.

All things were made by Him; and without Him, was not anything made that was made. ~ John 1:3.

God, who at sundry times and in diverse manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by His Son, whom He hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also He made the worlds. ~ Hebrews 1:1 through 2.

He was there at our formation, our Carpenter and Fashioner, the very One who breathed into us life (Genesis 2:7). So then, by Him, who made us and gave us life, being formed in His image, shall we also be saved from death, being once again restored to His image... ”In Him was life; and the life was the light of men” (John 1:4).

My children, Jesus the Christ, Yeh shoe ah is His name, is your Passover! ~ [God speaking.]

To restore us, once again, Jesus first had to come in our image and liv and die as a man... a living sacrifice for our sins. In this way, Jesus became our Passover, the very Passover Lamb that was slain for the sins of the world, so death would no longer have power over us.

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. ~ 1 Corinthians 5:7.

For as much as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a Lamb without blemish and without spot. ~ 1 Peter 1:18 through 19.

For as much, then, as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, He also, Himself, likewise took part of the same; that through death He might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil... Wherefore in all things it behoved Him to be make like unto His brethren, that He might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people. ~ Hebrews 2:14 and 17.

I am He who is called the Lamb of God, the Lamb from Heaven without any spot or blemish, given as a ransom for many so that death will pass over you, and you shall liv forever. My blood is the blood shed for you to place upon your door, so you may be spared. No one goes to the Father unless they eat of the flesh of the Lamb, and drink His blood. Do this in remembrance of Me and My covenant with you, for I have already accomplished it and sealed it forevermore upon My rising. I am no longer the Lamb, but the Risen One, the Holy One of Israel, the Lion of the tribe of Judah. The Lamb was slain, My people redeemed in all the earth. I am risen forever and ever, clothed in glory and praise. So too will My people be clothed in glory, for they are cleansed and will be like the angels of Heaven in that Day.
Your Redeemer livs... death has passed over you. The Lamb was slain so you might liv. Eat and drink and give thanks in remembrance of Me, and I shall remember you and gather you up and hold you close to Me. Amen. ~ Jesus speaking. [Excerpt from, “I Am the Passover and Its Lamb... A New Covenant With Men”, Volume One, Letters from God and His Christ].

Jesus’ sacrifice was a supreme act of love for humanity.
Just before the Passover feast that would see His execution, Jesus said that “for this purpose I came to this hour... And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all peoples to Myself”, (John 12:27 and 32). Jesus’ sacrifice is the pivotal event in God’s plan to save humanity. Speaking of His certain death, Christ said He, referring to Himself as the Son of Man, must be “lifted up”, (crucified), even as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so that all those who believe in Him should not perish but have eternal life.

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life”, (John 3:14 through 16).

This important event, Jesus Christ’s sacrifice on the cross, laid the foundation for the remaining annual Holy Days and festivals. It is the most important step in God’s plan.

The Meaning of the Hebrew Word, “Pesach”, and Greek Word “Pascha”.
The Hebrew, “pesach”, means a “passing over”, a pretermission, an exemption (Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance - #6453). It is derived from #6453, pasach, to hop, skip over, or spare.
The Greek, “pascha”, Strong’s #3957, means the Passover, the day, the festival or special sacrifices connected with it. The KJV incorrectly translated Passover as “Easter” in Acts 12:4, but other translations have written it correctly.

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. 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. ~ Exodus 12:1 through 14.
