Abraham, Jesus and the Cross

What is the connection between Abraham, Jesus and the cross? You may be surprised by the answer. We live in a world where there is a great deal of misinformation. Since the time of Jesus Christ, many people have interpreted what happened during the time of the Passover season and the Feast of unleavened bread differently. The time of the day Jesus died on the cross is very well documented, so there can be no disagreement about that. But the time when the Passover meal should be eaten is a completely different matter. There is a great deal of confusion about when we should partake of the Passover. Some claim the Passover should be celebrated at the very start of the day immediately after the sun has set and the 14th of Nisan is just beginning. Others will argue it should take place late in the afternoon, at the same time Jesus died on the cross. Still others claim it must be observed at the start of the 15th of Nisan, just after sunset on the 14th. With all these different interpretations for this event, how can we possibly know what is right and what is wrong. This is where we must trust the word of God to come to our rescue and lead us into the truth. The bible will reveal the truth if we are willing to read this amazing book with an open mind and heart. I always rely on God’s holy bible to interpret itself, it is absolutely amazing how it can do this, which is further proof that God is the real author of this book. It may have been written by many different men, but they were all inspired by the Holy Spirit and guide for every word recorded. We have been reassured of this in the book of 2 Peter in the New Testament. 2Pe 1:20 knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of private interpretation.
