The Passover the Solution for Great Disasters

Now, there are so many disasters everywhere in the world: wars between nations, ethnic conflicts, terrors, famines, earthquakes, and deadly cold or heat or flood caused by changes in weather patterns. Whenever such things occur, people tremble with fear, not knowing who or what they should set their hearts on. The Bible already prophesied about the coming disasters and what people would do in the day of such disasters.

2 Pe 3:7-10 "By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men. ... But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare."

However, God has prepared a way to escape the disaster when such dreadful day comes. He has made the way-the good news of salvation-known to us. We can get it only through the Bible, not through any high-tech equipment developed by scientists.

Passover is the way to escape the disaster

Let's take a careful look at God's word of promise to let us escape any disaster.

Ex 12:11-14 "... it is the LORD's Passover. On that same night I will pass through Egypt and strike down every firstborn-both men and animals ... The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are; and when I see the blood, I will pass over you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt. ... "

At the time of the Exodus, when the plague of destroying every firstborn was brought upon Egypt, no plague befell to the Israeli houses which kept the Passover. In other words, the plague passed over them. Thus, Passover (pascha in Greek, pesach in Hebrew) implies "Plagues pass over."

Then, in this age, too, should we keep the Passover by putting the blood of a lamb on the sides of the door?

"This[The Passover bread] is my body given for you; do this in rememberance of me."(Luke22:19)

"This cup[The Passover wine] is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you."

Jesus established the Passover of the new covenant with bread and wine. In this age, we can be saved from disasters when we keep the Passover of the new covenant with bread and wine, following the word of Jesus!!! Then, which church keeps the Passover, following the way Jesus taught? It is only the Church of God that keeps the Passover just as Jesus ordered. The only way to escape the last disaster, which scientiest are warning about, is to keep the Passover.

Keep the Passover, the way God taught, and be saved from the great disaster!
