The children of Israel kept the Passover as they were passing over from Egypt to the wilderness. They passed over from one place or state into another, from darkness into light, illustrated by the plague of darkness in Egypt. The Egyptians had three days of darkness, but the Israelites had light. What brings us into spiritual darkness is the absence of spiritual light; truth. There were three hours of darkness following the death of the light of the world, Jesus, as it is written, “Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.” Matthew 27:24. The three hours or days of darkness represent three thousand years of spiritual darkness. To understand what caused the death of God’s word, the light of spiritual truth, bringing spiritual darkness to mankind, we must go to the story of Jonah, who spent three days and three nights in darkness, in the belly of the fish… 

Holding the Spiritual Passover:
And the Lord spake unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying, This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year unto you. Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth day of this month they shall take to them every man a lamb, according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for an house. Exodus 12:3. The tenth day, like the tenth plague, is about death. The word tenth, means an accumulation, ten, to tithe, i.e. take or give a tenth. 

Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? God’s reply: In tithes and offerings. Malachi 3:8. Tithing is not about giving a tenth of your income to the Church. It’s about gathering up and sacrificing what is destroying your physical and spiritual life. When one offers carnal tithes, omitting spiritual tithing, or sacrifice, one is breaking God’s Commandment— “Thou shalt not steal.” Offering carnal tithes or sacrifices is stealing from God because what God wants is spiritual; a right spirit and a repentant and purified heart. We are to sacrifice a spiritual lamb, symbolizing our self-righteousness. A lamb for an house. We are each a house, responsible for gathering up and sacrificing our own lamb of sin. The lamb that Israel gathered up was according to their fathers, the traditions of which are vain; of no value with respect to spiritual life.  

Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year: ye shall take it out from the sheep, or from the goats:   Exodus 12:5: The lamb we gather up and put on the altar is not without blemish. The scripture is prophetic; revealing what the people of Israel would do fifteen hundred years down the road. Instead of sacrificing their own lamb of sin, they sacrificed the Lamb of God, one without blemish; without sin. He was a male of the first year, taken out from the sheep, symbolizing the Jews, and from the goats, symbolizing the Gentiles, murdered in the first year; in 1AD.  Father Abraham illustrated this sacrifice of innocence two thousand years earlier when he put his son on the altar. We have all put the spiritual son of God on the spiritual altar of our heart, sacrificing the truth of our heart through false beliefs. Abraham’s sacrifice also illustrated what should have taken place two thousand years ago, and what should be taking place now, at what is the start of the spiritual passover of the world, as Abraham ultimately sacrificed the ram, symbolizing idolatry, the worshipping of false images. It is our false religious and personal images or beliefs that we are to sacrifice, atoning for the death of truth that has taken place within us. Jesus, the spiritual Son of God the Father, died because of our sins, not in place of them, as religion teaches. Truth dies because ofour iniquities, because of our sins (Isaiah 53:5). 

Ye shall keep it up until the fourteenth day of the same month: and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it in the evening.   Exodus 12:6: The children of Israel were to keep it up, keep gathering up the lamb. But there is something more, referring to the actual Passover itself, which they were to keep observing until the fourteenth day. In God’s cycle of time, the fourteenth day was two thousand years ago. Jesus came in the fifth day; in the beginning of the fifth thousandth year: 1+2+3+4+(5) = 15. It was time to end carnal sacrificing, and commence with spiritual sacrificing. But they rejected the spiritual word of God, and the congregation of Israel, Jews and Gentiles alike, killed the Lamb of God on the evening of the fourteenth day, the days counted from evening to morning.    

And they shall take the blood and strike it on the two side posts and on the upper door post of the houses, wherein they shall eat it.  Exodus 12:7: The blood symbolizes death. The two side posts symbolize the two spiritual pillars or witnesses of the heart. The upper door post is the head of the door, the head symbolizing authority. And what has had authority over man, and is to be put to death, is man’s unholy spirit and unrighteous word. Through this spiritual sacrifice we make atonement for the death of God’s spirit and word, illustrated two thousand years ago by the beheading of John the Baptist and the crucifixion of Jesus the Christ…

And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and  unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat it.  Exodus 12:8: The flesh that is to be utterly consumed is our false word. The flesh they were to eat of two thousand years ago was God’s word. They sacrificed the wrong flesh… To eat means to accept into our heart, through obedience. The fire symbolizes the spiritual judgment that consumes our lamb of sin. The word bread means to overcome. The word unleavened means without sin, the spiritual state we reach by overcoming the false beliefs that make up our lamb of sin. The bitter herbs symbolize the bitterness associated with the death of truth. When we put the word of truth to death, we became confused, causing us to make wrong choices in our life, the negative consequences of which have caused us to become bitter. Jesus was given gall mixed with vinegar to drink upon his death, illustrating the bitterness that results from sacrificing the truth that wants to live in our heart.
