Christ, our Passover!

1 Cor 5:7---"...Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us." Our Passover? What does that mean? Exodus 12:13,23---"When I see the blood, I will pass over you; and the plague shall not be on you to destroy you...When HE sees the blood the Lord will pass over and not allow the destroyer to come into your houses." Did you catch the meaning? The wrath of God abides on men...God will destroy men because of there sin (John 3:36). But if we have Christ as our passover Lamb, Who was sacrificed for us, taking the wrath from God that we deserve, we will be saved from death!!!
I like what Clay said about the snow. After snow falls, all you see is beautiful white. All the dirt is covered. "though your sins are like scarlet they shall be white as snow"---"These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb." (Is 1:18, Rev 7:14) It is the blood of the Lamb that makes our sins white as snow.
"To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood"!!!! Praise God!!!

Also included: a little side lesson from Samuel to "to good and share for with such sacrifices the Lord is well pleased" Heb 13:16. I'm not sure he was a very cheerful giver though. =)
