Becoming fully acceptable to God by the fragrant sacrifice of Christ ought to lead us to extravagant gratitude.
This Good Friday Pastor Mike Fabarez looks at the crucifixion of Christ and its connection to the Passover lamb. Prepare for the resurrection celebration this Easter by remembering the reason Christ was crucified for us.
Just like the impending doom in the days of Noah, one day the door of mercy will be shut against those who do not walk through the door of repentance and trust in Christ and what he did on the cross.
Jesus, our Passover Lamb, has been sacrificed which enables God to “pass over” us in judgment and “pluck us out” from the slavery of sin.
Assuming responsibility for our sin (and in that sense Christ’s pain) is a prerequisite to enjoying the privilege of forgiveness and seeing the cross as a blessing. Additional note: there is no outline provided for this sermon.
Christians must take communion with an attitude of thanksgiving for the cross.
