It's Easter. What does that mean? ("Easter" is really just the Old English/Saxon name for the month of April.) Passover / Resurrection Day What is Passover? Exod 12 (vs 7 - Blood on doorposts) The blood of the lamb saved. The "Last Supper" was a Passover supper. - Passover began at sunset. So Jesus was crucified on Passover day. This was God's plan from the beginning. - Psm 22 - Isaiah 52, 53 So, why? Why did Jesus die? - The Passover Lamb John 3:3-8, 14-19, John 10:27-28, John 11:25 - Eternal life?? But, we still die, right? - "That which is born of flesh is flesh and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit." - We are all born of the flesh and we all die in the flesh. - When we are born, we are all dead in the spirit. When we accept Jesus we are "born again". - - (Romans 5:12, 18-19) Born twice, die once. Born once, die twice. Die twice?? Yes! - Revelation 2:11 - Revelation 20:14-15 - Revelation 21:8 Ok. So How? The Roman Road - 3:23, All have sinned. - 6:23, The wages. - 5:8 Christ died for us. - 10:9-10 Confess and believe.
