Passover on SermonAudio

Luke 22:7-23

This sermon explores the Last Supper as the pathway of communion, highlighting Jesus Christ's intense desire for fellowship with His disciples before His suffering. The preacher connects the Passover ritual to Christ as the fulfillment of the sacrificial lamb, whose body and blood were given as a substitute for humanity. Despite knowing that Judas would betray Him and the other disciples would forsake Him, Jesus remained faithful and steadfast in His mission to Calvary. The message emphasizes that God seeks genuine worship and communion among believers, reflecting Christ's own longing to be with His people. Ultimately, the sermon presents Christ's obedience and love as the foundation for Christian fellowship and hope.

We are preparing to enter into the most sacred and holy truth of all scripture. We come closer and closer to the beating heart of the Gospel and find the One waiting there is glorious beyond all description! He is the One who has loved us, who has given Himself for us and who will one day return and take us home to be with Him forever!! He is not the cold vengeance-filled god born of Muhammed's imagination… He is not the feeble, vapid and effete godlett of American liberal "Christianity". He is not the demon-gods of the Hindu, nor the happy fat Buddha, but He is the God of the Bible. He ALONE is God and He ALONE is worthy to be praised!! The God who holds out the glory of the Gospel is YHWH, creator of Heaven and Earth... He is Jesus Christ, YHWH made flesh, the second person of the Eternal Godhead and He has entered the true Holiest Place, entered the very throne room of Heaven and paid the ransom for our sin! He has purchased us back with the price of His Own Blood!! The most perfect sacrifice and the absolute, total payment for sin!

Before taking the Lord's Supper today we explore its significance by tracing its roots from the Old Testament Passover to Christ's ultimate sacrifice. It explains how Jesus fulfills the role of the Lamb of God, offering eternal redemption through His blood rather than temporary animal sacrifices. The message emphasizes that believers must remember this profound act of grace, acknowledging their former status as enemies of God and their new identity as redeemed children. By reflecting on Christ's victory over death and sin, the congregation is encouraged to remain steadfast in their faith and service. The central call is to look back at the cross with gratitude and forward to eternal life with hope all the while remembering what He has done for us.

Our Lord gives his people a means of remembering our redemption and deliverance.

We review a small section of a sermon that makes some claims about the use of the word Easter in the KJV

Passover Seder Demonstrated and Preached by Missionary Eugene Kozachenko.

The sermon explores the narrative of Peter's miraculous prison release in Acts 12 to illustrate the power and nature of effective prayer. It highlights how the early church prayed specifically and earnestly for Peter, yet remained astonished when God answered in a way that exceeded their expectations. The preacher emphasizes that while believers may possess theological knowledge that God hears and answers prayer, true faith often falls short of anticipating divine intervention in impossible circumstances. By connecting this event to the Passover, the message underscores God's ability to deliver His people without human strategy or power. The central call is for believers to persist in specific, fervent prayer for their pressing burdens, trusting that God can produce outcomes that leave them astonished.

The sermon examines the women's journey to Jesus' tomb in Mark 16, highlighting their fervent devotion and fearlessness despite physical obstacles like the sealed stone. It contrasts their eager service with the hypocrisy of religious leaders who observed Passover rituals while having orchestrated the crucifixion. The preacher emphasizes that God miraculously removed these barriers before the women arrived, demonstrating His sovereignty over human problems. Central to the message is the angel's declaration that Jesus has risen, confirming that believers serve a living Savior rather than a dead deity. The transcript concludes with an exhortation for Christians to exhibit similar zeal and courage in sharing the good news of the resurrection.
