Seder

Yesterday we had a Seder dinner with our church. It was a good reminder of how the old Covenant God had with Israel was just a shadow of the new Covenant we as Christians have with Jesus Christ. After we got home I read this passage from Hebrews 9 as a part of my reading plan.


But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and more perfect tent (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation)  he entered once for all into the holy places, not by means of the blood of goats and calves but by means of his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption.  For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the sprinkling of defiled persons with the ashes of a heifer, sanctify for the purification of the flesh,  how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God,purify our conscience from dead works to serve the living God.


It was so neat to read this after such a special service.  Hallelujah what a Savior!
