NEITHER NOR
Read Romans 8:31-39

Holy Week
April 8, 2009
The following thoughts I have taken and adapted from John Eldredge's book, "Waking the Dead". It blessed my life I pray it will bless yours.
"Jesus of Nazareth was sentenced to death by a vain puppet of the Roman government acting as a district governor of Jerusalem. He was nailed on a cross by a handful of Roman soldiers who happened to be on duty, and left there to die. He died sometime around 3 o'clock in the afternoon on a Friday. The cause...a broken heart. An innocent man, bleeding for the sin and sins of the world. We have rebelled, and the penalty for our rebellion was death. To lose us to sin was too great a pain for God to bear, and so he took it upon HIMSELF to rescue us. This innocent man, the Son of God came to "give his life as a ransom for many" (Matthew 20:28)
Each and every one of us has been ransomed by Him who is called the Christ. Our treachery is forgiven. Our lives, entirely pardoned for every wrong thought and desire and deed. This is what the vast majority of Christians understand as the central work of Christ for us. And make no mistake about it...it is a deep and stunning truth that will set you free and give you great joy. It is this truth, echoed by the Roman centurion standing guard that day as he witnessed this man on the cross, when he states, "Surely he was the son of God!"
Because of what was effected on that day,
we call it...
GOOD FRIDAY!
May we never forget the reason for this season and why we celebrate Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday...Easter.
From Eric and Chris Tomlin..............
Shalom Dewey,

“These are the feasts of the L-rd, holy convocations which you shall proclaim at their appointed times.” Leviticus 23:4
Passover – Yeshua, Jesus, Sacrificed
The Israelites selected a Lamb 4 days before Passover. They lived with it, became very close to it, as we do our pets. The Lamb was slaughtered on Passover, its blood put on the lintel & doorposts of the house, so that the death angel would “pass over” the household. That household, Jew or Gentile, would not die if there was blood on the doorframe. Exodus 12:1-13; Leviticus 23:5
The sacrificed Lamb, Yeshua, Jesus, is the Lamb given by the Father, as a sacrifice for our sins, our transgressions. Tabernacle sacrifices were made twice daily. The first at 9 a.m., the second at 3 p.m. These sacrifices were made on behalf of the entire Nation of Israel. On the day Yeshua was crucified and died, he was crucified during the 9 a.m. sacrifice. He cried out to our Father, “IT IS FINISHED!”, at 3 p.m.
Feast of Unleavened Bread – Yeshua in the Tomb
Leaven, yeast, often a metaphor for sin, is removed from the home before Passover. Bread, without leaven, is eaten for seven days. It is a reminder to get the sin out of our lives. Exodus 12:14-20; Leviticus 23:6; 1 Corinthians 5:6-7
This is also the time of year that the first grain, the barley, ripens in Israel. Israelites eagerly awaited its ripening. When the whole nation of Israel was praying for bread from earth, Yeshua, the Bread of Life, was in the earth. Barley was the poor man’s grain. How like our Saviour to humble himself.
First Fruits – Yeshua’s Resurrection
Israelites presented the very first of their harvest, their “first fruits”: The barley is waved before the L-rd. With great faith, they offered this first fruit to the L-rd: “L-rd, this is all I have. I know that whatever may happen; hail, flood, drought, fire, I’ll trust you to provide the remainder of the harvest.” Leviticus 23:9-10
Yeshua, the First Fruits of Salvation is raised from the dead. 1 Corinthians 15:20
________________________________________________________________________
These are the feasts of the L-rd, holy convocations which you shall proclaim at their
appointed times. On the fourteenth day of the first month at twilight is the L-rd’s Passover.
And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the Feast of Unleavened Bread
to the L-rd; seven days you must eat unleavend bread. . . And the L-rd spoke
to Moses, saying, “Speak to the Children of Israel and say them, ‘When you come
into the Land which I give to you, and reap its harvest, then you shall bring a sheaf
of the firstfruits of your harvest to the priest.’ “ Leviticus 23:4-6;9-10
Let us pray..........
Dear Father,
May we make you smile Father, may that be all of our goals.....too make YOU smile. In the name of Jesus, AMEN.
In the Love of Christ, Dewey Sharon and family
Lord willing we many have another post before Resurrection Sunday.
