  • The Blood of the Lamb.

    Passover. It was the last supper of Christ and the celebration of the Lord the father saving his people. The plague of death passed over those who spread the blood of the lamb. How very christian. For the blood of Christ to covers us from death. Christ was stripped and pierced for our iniquity. The bitter herbs and salt repressing the anguish of man. The wine and bread representative of Christ and how we are to be in fellowship with him.

        He is risen! So, why did the disciples not realize that He was going to come back to life? Didn't they realize Who He was after He calmed the stormy sea?
        If it weren't for the Resurrection of Jesus, we'd all be in DEEP TROUBLE!

          The bread and wine representative of the portion of the sin sacrifice to be eaten.
          Enter the Church and wash away your sins. For here there is a hospital and not a court of law. Do not be ashamed to enter the Church; be ashamed when you sin, but not when you repent. – St. John Chrysostom

            The middle matzoh taken and hidden away to be found later representing the second Person of the Trinity being hidden in a tomb and resurrected.

              Well, partly because they weren't expecting the Messiah to come to die. They expected the King, not the Sacrifice.

              And, they didn't have the Holy Spirit yet to enlighten them as we do. Don't forget, they were steeped from the time of their birth in the religious system that held them captive until the Lord came to free them.

              We would likely have been no better than they.

                Well, an action themed Messiah kicking Roman butt would have been cool...

                But what Jesus actually did is still much, much better!

                  Of course they thought it would be better for the Messiah to come as King, and He did, for a few minutes......

                  But that was not why He came. That time.......

                      I still can't help but pray for their salvation so they rock the new World too -- and maybe give the above a shot :-)
                      We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore on Christ's behalf: 'Be reconciled to God!!'
