In this Resurrection Sunday Message, we finished our examination of the Testing of the Lamb of God, which began on Palm Sunday. The lamb of God was examined and tested in parallel to how the paschal lamb of sacrifice was to be examined and then sacrificed on the Passover. So too, Christ was examined and then found blameless and qualified, as He became the lamb of God that takes away the sins of the World on the Passover. We then moved into our Resurrection Sunday examination of the Feast or Day of First Fruits, Yom HaBikkurim (יוֹם הַבִּכּוּרִים), which is a picture that was fulfilled by the person of Yeshua HaMoshiach - Jesus Christ the Anointed who delivers Israel and all men from sin's judgment. |
