Christ Our Passover
Our church's 2020 Lenten Celebration - Ash Wednesday to Easter
"Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed," writes Paul to the
Corinthians. "Therefore let us keep the Festival" (1 Corinthians 5:7-8).
Every year Jewish people around the world celebrate the Passover to remember
how God delivered their ancestors when they were slaves in Egypt. The heart of the
Passover festivities is the seder meal when lamb is eaten and participants tell the
story of how their ancestors painted lamb's blood on their doorframes. Wherever the
angel of death saw blood around a door, it passed over without killing the firstborn
within.
Jesus is God's final and greatest Passover Lamb. Because of His sacrifice on the
cross, God's wrath and judgment against our sin passes over us forever!
The Christ Our Passover Lenten worship series looks at the events of passion week
in the context of the Passover festival. It explains the purpose of Christ's passion,
relating the types, symbols, and elements of the seder meal to Christ's suffering and
death. Special consideration is given to the connection between the Passover
seder meal and the sacrament of the Lord's Supper.
This Lent we are going to get ready for the Easter "feast" by exploring how the
various elements of the Passover meal (seder) point to Jesus and explain what He
has done for all people. Our special midweek Lenten liturgies will include parts of
the actual Passover seder meal. Plan to join us every week!
