Will we fully follow Christ? The stories of Caleb, the leader of Judah at the time of the Exodus, and Jeremiah and the generals of Israel at the time of the Babylonian captivity, are linked by this common thread. We are all called upon to make a choice as to whether we will do God’s will and fully follow our Great Shepherd . Most of the adults of ancient Israelites who left Egypt did not follow through on their promise of obedience to the Lord God. They allowed fear and doubt to overwhelm them and forgot all of God’s miracles. Much later the people of Israel when confronted with the spectre of Babylonian tyranny also lacked the faithfulness needed to follow through on their promise. So what does God expect of his people and what were the lessons that Paul reflected on when describing our ancestors in the faith and their journey from Red Sea to the Promised land?
Let the scriptures encourage you in your walk so you can fully follow Christ.

When God draws people to Himself, as he did at the time of the Exodus from Egypt, and calls them His own because of His mercy, what does God expect? How do people become God’s nation? How do they remain God’s people? Are we truly Christian nations, nations that do not lie to God or betray Him?

If we know the biblical accounts, then we know this is a time when our spiritual ancestors would have been leading unleavened lives. For they had physically removed the yeast of leavened bread from their homes. But, the Christian world is divided when it comes to how to celebrate or remember the events that the bible recounts at this time of year. Most conventional Christians embrace the Good Friday – Easter Sunday tradition. If they think about it at all, they may consider Passover, and the idea of eating ‘unleavened bread,’ matzah, as quaint Jewish customs. But in favouring tradition over ‘sola scriptura’ believers are missing important lessons that we are told to remember. So how did our spiritual ancestors worship and what insight did this give them?

Nisan 15 – Holy Day
Leading Unleavened Lives
Paul knew, that like leaven, a little spiritual corruption could become pervasive. And in time that leaven of sin could destroy the whole congregation. Paul’s advice was to remove the leaven of malice and vice, by leading unleavened lives in sincerity and untainted truth. Consider this profound message during the Passover season.
Unleavened Bread — Our Spiritual Heritage
Paul in writing to the Corinthians reminded them of their spiritual heritage. He had instructed them to ‘put out the leaven’ in accordance with the Lord God’s instructions in the book of Exodus. For even though Gentiles by birth, they had become part of God’s people by baptism. But there was a problem. They had removed the physical leaven from their homes. But, they were not leading unleavened lives. They were ‘leavened’ by tolerating sexual sin in their midst. And Paul knew, that like leaven, a little spiritual corruption could become pervasive. And in time that leaven of sin could destroy the whole congregation. Paul’s advice was to remove the leaven of malice and vice, and walk with God in sincerity and untainted truth. So, are we leading unleavened lives?
The actual chronology of the biblical accounts is evidence of Jesus having been in the tomb three days and three nights. He was in the tomb Wednesday late afternoon before sunset and left the tomb late Saturday (Sabbath)afternoon just before sunset. Paul was convinced that Jesus was the Messiah for he fulfilled the prophecies. But even more, Paul had a personal experience talking to the resurrected Jesus. Like Mary and all of the other disciples, Paul knew from personal experience that Jesus had risen from the dead! And, he had fulfilled the symbolism of the wave sheaf … so what did that mean?
Historically speaking, there was a time when Britains and Canadians would not have questioned their status as Christian nations. Yet, when David Cameron had the audacity to say that Britains should be, “more confident about our status as a Christian country.” there was a political uproar against this idea. Today atheists, and others among the elite of society are loudly denouncing any connection to Christianity. They are decrying the notion of a godly code of conduct as ‘abhorrent’ and twisting God’s light into darkness with their rhetoric. They hate those who exercise their right to free speech to express the hope of salvation and the promises of God that Paul preached. So let’s examine the apostle Paul’s defence before the Roman authorities, Felix and Festus, to help us understand what it means to be a Christian, or a Christian nation.
Understand the lessons of this time of year as the new sacred year begins.
Abib/Nisan 1 is Thursday March 19 in 2026.
The New Covenant Passover is Tuesday March 31st at sunset and the Holy Day begins Wednesday April 1st at sunset in 2026
In ancient religions, sacrifices were often made with the idea of “buying off the gods” and this has translated into a more modern notion that offering a sacrifice, somehow, makes it “right to do wrong.” But is that the scriptural reality, or are there some profound insights that Christians can discern from the lessons of Sacrifice and Passover? And does sacrifice really atone for intentional sins? The bible provides the answers.
