Passover: The Killing of Jesus
/Weekly Service
The Holy Week of Passover memorializes forever the sacrificial death of Jesus, the Passover Lamb of God. So important was his death that it became central to Messianic Judaism and later Christianity as seen in the Passover Seder, the Catholic Eucharist, and the Protestant Communion. In the words of the Apostle Paul, "For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which He was betrayed took bread; and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “This is My body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” In the same way He took the cup also after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.” For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until He comes" (1 Corinthians 11:23-26). His death, rather than His resurrection, was to be the emphasis for all believers, in every place, and in every generation. Join is to find out why!
