EVALUATING THE CUP OF BLESSING FOR A TRUE PASSOVER

This article evaluates the article on “THE CUP OF BLESSINGS FOR PASSOVER”

(in http://www.restoringcaptivity.com ).

The cup concerning JESUS CHRIST’S ,1Co 10:16 , is for A TRUE Passover .

• All articles sent on “THE CROSS OF JESUS CHRIST” culminate with “THE CUP OF BLESSING”!---one should observe Passover  knowing the promises the LORD had given through His sacrifice.—many promises through the sacrifice of JESUS CHRIST were mentioned in that article.
• These articles may help you to examine, to discern the LORD’s body, 1 Co 11: 29---1 Co 11: 28  But let a man examine himself,-- 29-he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body. –Joh 6:54  Whoso eateth My flesh, and drinketh My blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.-
• Raising is from Ro 6: 3-7—therefore you have to go through BAPTIZM INTO HIS DEATH, TO DRINK HIS BLOOD. Then He will raise you as HE RAISED!
• PASSOVER BREAD- Jn 6.61, His flesh for the life of the world to be born—blood and flesh, vss 53-57

ETERNAL LIFE , RAISING IN THE LAST DAY IS PROMISED through A TRUE PASSOVER when you REALLY GO THROUGH HIS BLOOD, AT RO 6: 3-7!

When you have these promises OF RO 6: 3-7, 19,22, you have to be OBEDIENT TO THE WORD OF GOD--

2Co 7:1--having these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.---so one has to discern the promises and cleanse , SO THAT THE LORD COULD RAISE UP AT THE LAST DAY!

The LORD is working with His own chosen spiritual ISRAEL, Rom 9: 4,6, He would at first purify the house of ISRAEL, Ez 43: 10,11, then they would be royal priests, Jer 33: 25,26, to rule spiritual ISRAEL, and they would dwell with Him, Ez 48: 35, EVEN THE GENTILES WOULD BE JOINED TO THEM, Eze. 47: 22, gentiles would be counted as ISRAEL! .

The LORD chose to purify Levi on LORD’s day, Mal 3: 1-5, as He was assured of Judgment, Acts 17: 31,

They would be as silver and gold because of LORD’s sacrifice for them through which they would come out sinless, Ro 6: 3-7, freed of sin, vs. 18, and they were given knowledge of Him and Him crucified, as Paul preached, 1 Co 2: 2.

Then you have to discern how the LORD helps us SINNERS, when we eat and drink at Passover ! –examine spiritual blessings promised by Him.

Please read the article on “the cup of blessing” , and learn more from your own bible study. 1 Co 11: 28 gives that responsibility to each man!

When you examine the blessings, you are promised through His sacrifice, YOU OUGHT TO FOLLOW 2 CO 7: 1 AS STATED ABOVE! THEN SONS OF OBEDIENCE WOULD BE MADE SILVER AND GOLD! they would make the new covenant.

(NOW NOTICE—the LORD who is the owner of word of God, Re 19: 13, follows the word—i.e., ALL WHAT HE DOES IS RECORDED IN THE WORD—therefore we could see HOW HE IS LED BY THE WORD, this is why we too are commanded in Gal 5: 18 to be led by the spirit, (spirit is the words, Jn 6: 63)—

Gal 5: 18  But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

If you are led by the word (which is spirit, Jn 6: 63), you BECOME A DOER OF THE WORD! Then you are NOT UNDER LAW!

Such a royal Priesthood will then serve the LORD to RULE ISRAEL, His people,  (kings will serve KING, Re 19:16, in holiness, Zec 14: 20,21), He took an oath to do so, Jer 33: 25,26, they become a HOLY SEED, Isa 53:10, then generations of ISRAEL would continue, Isa 59: 21, and the LORD’s pleasure will be accomplished, Isa 53: 10, Isa 66: 22: 23.

True Passover  helps to END captivity, it is the TIME OF GATHERING ISRAEL, Zep 3:20 ---then, when you discern and acknowlegde the LORD’s sacrifice, and acknowledge that you had sinned, Jer 14: 20, Jer 3: 13,  THANK HIM FOR ALL WHAT HE HAD DONE, AND SINCERELY HOPE TO BECOME A DISCIPLE OF HIS, AS YOUR SPIRITUAL CAPTIVITY WOULD END.

• We should understand that ISRAEL failed through law, but it is the grace of JESUS CHRIST that saves ISRAEL, Ro 3:24  Being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:, Eph 1:7  In whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;Ro 5:21  That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.—

FORGIVENESS, REDEMPTION CAME THROUGH HIS BLOOD, through GRACE OF JESUS CHRIST, while ISRAEL failed through law of Moses. --Joh 1:17  For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

Zec 12:10  And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon Me whom they have pierced,

(ONE SHOULD MARVEL HOW THE LORD IS WORKING ACCORDING TO THE WORD!)

Heb 8: 12-- their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.

The LORD forgives, and He says “no more abominations, Eze. 44:6

THEREFORE WE SHOULD BELIEVE THAT THE LORD WILL PERFORM HIS WORDS—HE WOULD ACT ACCORDING TO HIS WORDS—SO SHOULD WE!

WHATEVER IS COMMANDED MUST BE DONE BY US!

• Paul taught us two things, JESUS CHRIST, and Him crucified-1Co 2:2  -and he boasted on cross, Ga 6:14 , we could study Isa chap. 52,---53 in relation to Him crucified, (Isa 52: 2 says  loose thyself from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of ZION), Paul minister to gentiles, Rom 15: 16, magnified his office, Rom 11: 13 (enlarged or magnified with the grafting of gentiles, Ro 11:17), because ISRAEL does not hear, Acts 28: 28,

• ISRAEL did not obtain, and gentiles became the ELECT, Rom 11: 7-14, and gentiles became the 1^st fruits of poor, Isa 14: 30, (poor of the flock, waited upon Me knew that it was the word of the LORD, Zec 11: 11), and we were made to serve ISRAEL, Isa 14: 1-2, to give light of JESUS CHRIST to ISRAEL, Isa 60: 3 (the light is to know how gentiles were cleansed to serve Him, it is by blood, Eph 2: 13, and by raising as He raised, Eph. 2: 5,6—Eph 1: 20, WHICH MEANS THAT GENTILES WERE MADE TO BE BAPTIZED INTO HIS DEATH---OTHERWISE NO ONE COULD BE RAISED BY HIM AND HIS SACRIFICE OF BLOOD! IT IS ONLY THROUGH THE BAPTIZM INTO HIS DEATH THAT WE COULD BE RAISED IN Righteousness, RO 6: 3-7, 18-22.

• As the ISRAEL’S eyes were closed, Rom 11: 10, and through the fall of ISRAEL, salvation came to gentiles, Rom 11: 11, and that is to PROVOKE ISRAEL INTO JEALOUSY, Rom 11: 11, since ISRAEL does not have faith in JESUS CHRIST to be saved, GENTILES ARE SHOWING ISRAEL THE LIGHT OF HIM CRUCIFED, TO RETURN FROM THEIR CAPTIVITY, Isa 52: 2, THROUGH HIS MERCY, AND HIS SACRIFICE ON THE CROSS, Isa 53: 10,11!—ISRAEL HAS TO HAVE FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST FOR THEM TO BE REDEEMED, Isa 54: 5, Isa 9: 6, Ps. 83: 18.

• Isa 52: 15  - which they had not heard shall they consider. (the word says that ISRAEL had not heard these!—SO THEY SHOULD CONSIDER) READ Isa 52, 53, which records the slain JESUS CHRIST, those chapters give us knowledge of His death which relates to Passover, when we remember His death .

• Joh 4:2  (Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,)—in history all were baptized unto Moses, in sea, 1Co 10:2 , now as ISRAEL is in sea, the LORD baptizes ISRAEL into His name sending His fire, and spirit. (please read “the cup of blessing”). Now He is baptising—baptised into His death, Ro 6:3-This baptsim of JESUS CHRIST will make you to have a good conscience toward God, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, 1Pe 3:21.

• RESURRECTED JESUS CHRIST shows the POWER OF HIS CROSS- it is resurrection of JESUS CHRIST that assured the Judgment on Levi, on LORD’s day, Acts 17: 31, --that fulfills the Judgment on Levi, in Mal 3:1-5,  on LORD’s day.

Lu 9:23  -WE TOO HAVE TO GO THROUGH CROSS! ---Gal 5: 24  And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. –WHEN YOU DO SO--2 Tim 2: 19-- the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are His. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.

The cleansed ministry, would be teachers, who would be doers of the word, and teach people to be so!---THEY WOULD DEPART FROM INIQUITY AS 2 TIM 2:19 REQUIRES!

TO DEPART FROM INIQUITY, ONE SHOULD FOLLOW THE LORD’S LOVING WAYS WHICH ARE MENTIONED IN THE WORD, AND TO HELP US TO DO THAT THE LORD SHED HIS LOVE WHEN HE POURED HIS SPIRIT—- Rom 5: 5--the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. (in Joel 2: 28-29, Acts 2: 17-18 He poured His spirit, which are words, Jn 6: 63, which we gentiles send to ISRAEL.

Read---“laws of love of JESUS CHRIST”—and many other artilces relating to cross, in---http://www.restoringcaptivity.com

• SINCE THE LORD’S WAY IS IN THE SANCTUARY—the gentiles serve Him in Isa 56: 4-7, upholding His covenant, Sabbaths, and THE LORD IS PURIFYING MINISTRY OF ISRAEL during LORD’s day, through Judgment, Mal 3: 2-5,

(in Mal 3, He is the messenger of the covenant, that means we are cleansed as silver and gold to make the covenant!), cleansing through Judgment and burning spirit, Isa 4: 4, and it was shown that Judgment was assured through His resurrection, Acts 17: 31. therefore THE CROSS OF JESUS CHRIST IS EFFECTIVE FOR THE PURIFYING OF ISRAEL, of Rom 9: 4,6 (for all ISRAEL is not ISRAEL, but the called out in Rom 9: 4, Jn 6: 44, who would be taught by the LORD, during LORD’s day, through His servants, the gentiles), TO PARTAKE OF THE NEW COVENANT . THE LORD SHOWS HOW HE WOULD GIVE LIFE TO MINISTRY WHO BECAME SPIRITUALLY DEAD. All possible because He became the High Priest , Heb 8: 1,2, BECAUSE ALL THINGS ARE TO BE DONE THROUGH THE SANCTUARY as His ways are in SANCTUARY , Ps. 77: 13, gentiles serving Him, Zec 12: 8-10, Isa 56: 4-7.---AND NOW THE LORD HAD COMPLETED THAT WORK as shown in “cup of blessings for Passover ”.

• Joh 1:29  "LOOK AT LAMB who takes away the sin of the world! He came to save His people from sins, Mt 1: 21---MINISTRY IS SAVED FROM SINS—THEY ARE PURIFIED through MAL 3: 1-5,--the LORD has power to judge Levi through resurrection, Acts 17: 31, -JESUS CHRIST DIED AND RESURRECTED BY HIS OWN POWER!—Jn 10: 18, (No Father was involved in His resurrection!)—this is because He is the only God, Isa 9: 6, Ps. 83: 18, Zec 14:9-  And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and His name one.

• the LORD HAD TAKEN AN OATH! Jer 33: 25,26-- THE OATH--Jer 33: 14 onwards, the LORD promises to do a work (that is Rom 9: 28, Hab 1: 5, THROUGH THAT WORK THE LORD PURIFIES MINISTRY, MAL 3: 3) , vs. 22 says--As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured: so will I multiply the seed of David My servant, and the Levites that minister unto Me.

IT IS BUILDING A TRUE MINISTRY TO SERVE THE LORD IN Righteousness, IN CLEANNESS!  When the ministry is righteous, they would GUIDE THE SHEEP in truth! THEY WILL TEACH TRUTH TO BELIEVERS.

• They should have knowledge of God more than sacrifices, Ho 6:6, therefore HE SENT KNOWLEDGE IN ABUNDANCE, Isa 11: 9. --Isa 53: 11-He gives knowledge to justify many; for He shall bear their iniquities.---

Therefore giving knowledge is connected to bearing iniquities ON THE CROSS, which means giving knowledge to justify is also included in the cup of blessing from His blood.-- Zec 13:1  In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin and for uncleanness.—AND IT IS GIVING KNOWLEDGE, Isa 11: 9.

• According to LORD’s Judgment, He cut off the names of prophet and ministry, Zec 13:2, 4, Eze. 13: 9, and He gave them names of cities or countries, Ps. 87: 4-6 (they are Babylon, Egypt, Philistia etc, it is prophet who was sent to Babylon, Eze. 12: 11-13), and most names of these cities (mentioned in Jer 25, Ps. 83), are names of this prophet as he is the head, Jer 20: 16 (a man of cities), this is a time the LORD counts one as a thousand, and a small one as a nation, Isa 60: 22. SO NATIONS ARE MEN! (nations or servants of the LORD are judged for worldly things, Ps. 135: 14,15).

Isa 52:15  So shall He sprinkle many nations. Kings shall shut their mouths at Him; For what had not been told them they shall see, And what they had not heard they shall consider. (only the ministry is being sent the knowledge through the LORD’s work!—only the called out ISRAEL would be told ,Jn 6: 44, 45!))

ISRAEL would BE SPRINKLED HIS BLOOD, Eze. 43: 18! And water, Eze. 36: 25--

Eze. 43; 18-These are the ordinances of the altar in the day when they shall make it, to offer burnt offerings thereon, and to sprinkle blood thereon.-- Eze 36:25 - Then will I sprinkle clean water,

SO THIS SPRINKLING HIS BLOOD AND CLEAN WATER IS WRITTEN IN Eze. TEMPLE MATTERS, AND ONE SHOULD KNOW THAT THE LORD SPEAKS HIS KINGDOM MATTERS IN PARABLES !—the SPRINKLING IS DONE ON nations---that IS ON MEN. Who were CUT OFF, IN Zec 13: 2,4, and given names of nations!

• As the LORD purifies the ministry, they form the bride category in new Jerusalem, Re 19: 7, Re 21: 2, and ISRAEL would make the new covenant, and they would be entiltled to their inheritance as recorded in Eze. Chapters 47, 48, (Eze. 48: 35—‘THE LORD IS THERE”!), which is also seen in Re chap. 21, 22.

• Therefore the cup of blessing through the CROSS OF JESUS CHRIST is given to the minitry FIRST, to purify themselves, TO BECOME TEACHERS, as first fruits of ISRAEL. The gentiles became the seed of JESUS CHRIST, Ps. 22: 30-31, Rom 9: 29, they are 1^st fruits of gentiles, Isa 14: 30, who would be joined as ISRAEL, Eze. 47: 22. gentile seed bear children among ISRAEL, Eze. 47: 22, therefore through gentiles,  the LORD IS GATHERING ISRAEL, Eze. 47: 22,  when the captivity would be over, Zep 3: 20,

Ps. 22: 30  A seed shall serve Him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.--31  They shall come, and shall declare His righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that He hath done this.(this is also Isa 14: 30)--

PLEASE NOTE IN Ps. 22: 30-31—THIS SEED HAD NOW DECLARED HIS Righteousness TO THE PEOPLE WHO WILL BE BORN—this is Eze. 47: 22—therefore the gentiles bear children among ISRAEL!—Eze. 47: 22

Look at that vs.—Eze. 47: 22  And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot for an inheritance unto you, and to the strangers that sojourn among you, which shall beget children among you: and they shall be unto you as born in the country among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel. 23--And it shall come to pass, that in what tribe the stranger sojourneth, there shall ye give him his inheritance, saith the Lord GOD.

SO WE SEE THE RIGHTEOUS JESUS CHRIST REWARDING THE GENTILES FOR THEIR SERVICE AMONG THE ISRAEL, HIS PEOPLE!

• IT IS WRITTEN THAT ISRAEL WOULD INSTANTLY SERVE JESUS CHRIST --Ac 26:7  Unto which promise our twelve tribes, instantly serving God day and night, hope to come.

SERVE DAY AND NIGHT--Re 7:15  Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve Him day and night in His temple: and He that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them.

AND HE DWELLS AMONG THEM--Eze. 48: 35  -- and the name of the city from that day shall be, The LORD is there, Re 21:3- Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God.

Isa 66:9  Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the LORD: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? saith thy God.

Page 74 (Psalm 98) 
Sing Praises And Rejoice!   

"O sing a new song to the Lord, for wonders He hath done! 
His right hand and His holy arm Him victory hath won! 
The Lord, His salvation, hath caused it to be known; 
His justice in the nations sight, He openly hath shown.

"He mindful of His grace and truth to Isr'el's house hath been; 
The great salvation of our God all ends of the earth hath seen! 
Let  all the earth unto the Lord send forth a joyful noise, 
Lift up your voice aloud to Him, sing praises and rejoice!"

ALL PRAISE TO JESUS CHRIST, THE REDEEMER OF ISRAEL, Isa 54:5, Amen.
