Hello, this is Sarah for the first commandment. So there's
-
so many churches in this world, like the stand by
-
the seashore, But they are not keeping the first commandment,
-
which which is the passover. If they are not keeping
-
the first commandment, which is the passover, then they are
-
worshiping other gods. Without keeping the passover. No one can
-
enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Matthew twenty two, verse thirty four.
-
Hearing that Jesus has silenced the Sadducees, the Pharisees got together.
-
One of them an expert, and the Law tested him
-
with his question, Teacher, what is their greatest commandment in
-
the law. Jesus replied, love the Lord your God with
-
all your heart, and with all your soul, and with
-
all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment.
-
Then the first commandment was to love God with all
-
your heart, all your soul, and all your mind. Then
-
we need to find an example of those who love
-
God with all their heart's, soul and mind, because this
-
is the first commandment. Second Kings twenty three, verse twenty one.
-
The King gave his orders to all the people celebrate
-
the passover to the Lord your God, as it is
-
written in this Book of the Covenant. Neither in the
-
days of the Judges led Israel, nor in the days
-
of the Kings of Israel and the King of Judah,
-
had any such passover been observed. But in the eighteenth
-
year of King Josiah, the passorver was celebrated to the
-
Lord in Jerusalem. Furthermore, Joseih got rid of all the
-
mediums and spirituists, the household God, the idols, and all
-
other detestable things seen in Judah and Jerusalem. This he
-
did to fulfill the requirements of the law written in
-
the book that Helkaia the priests had discovered in the
-
Temple of the Lord. Neither before and thereafter Josiah was
-
there a king like him who turned to the Lord
-
as he did with all his heart, with all his soul,
-
with all his strengths, and accordance with all the law
-
of Moses. Then King Josiah celebrated what he celebrated, the Passover.
-
After King Josiah celebrated the Holy Passover, he was said
-
to love God with all his heart, soul and mind.
-
Then he kept the first commandment by loving God with
-
all his heart, soul, mind, by keeping the passover because
-
he was able to not worship other gods, because he
-
destroyed all the other gods after keeping the passover. Exodus thirteen,
-
verse eight. You shall tell your son on that day,
-
it is because of what the Lord did for me
-
when I came out of Egypt. And it shall be
-
to you as a sign on your hands and as
-
a memorial between your eyes, that the law of the
-
Lord may be in your mouth, For with a strong hand,
-
the Lord has brought you out of Egypt. You shall
-
therefore keep these statues at the appointed time from year
-
after year. So what did God bring his people out
-
of Egypt with? Is said he did this because of
-
what God did for him when he came out of Egypt.
-
That the law should be on your lips and a
-
sign on your hand. Then what's stopped you did? Should
-
we keep up the appointed time year after year when
-
the people came out of Egypt. Let's see in Exodus twelve,
-
verse eleven, this is how you are to eat it,
-
with your cloak tucked into your belt, your sandals on
-
your feet, eat it and stop. Eat it, and your
-
staff in your hands, even in haste. It is the
-
Lord's passover. On that same night, I will pass through Egypt,
-
Egypt and strike down every fir firstborn of both people
-
and animals, and I will bring judgment on all the
-
gods of Egypt. I am the Lord. The butt will
-
be assigned for you on the houses where you are.
-
When I see the blood, I will pass over you.
-
No destructive play will touch you when I strike Egypt.
-
So the Passover was on the night when he passed
-
through Egypt to strike down every firstborn. It was the
-
passover at the appointed time. This is a day you
-
are to commemorate for the generation's county or celebrity as
-
a festival to the Lord. A lasting ordinance. The passover
-
at the time of Ecodus is never abolished. It's the
-
lasting ordinance kept at the appointed time. It has passed
-
over that stint and hates the most because it's the
-
day when he is judged. The Second Chronicles thirty verse one,
-
hezekiactant words all Israel and Judah also wrote letters to
-
ephrom Maniston invite and if it comes to the Temple
-
of the Lord in Jerusalem, and to celebrate the past
-
on the whole assembling. Jerusalem decided to celebrate the Passover
-
in the Second month. They had not been able to
-
celebrate at the regular time because not enough priests had
-
consecrated themselves and the people had not assembled in Jerusalem.
-
The planets seemed right both to the king and to
-
the whole assembly. They decided to send a proclamation throughout Israel,
-
from Beersheba to Dan, calling the people that comes to
-
Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover to the Lord. The God
-
of Israel, had not been celebrated in large numbers according
-
to what was written. So to return to God, we
-
have to keep the Passover in all ages Second Chronicles
-
thirty one, verse one. When all this had ended, the
-
Israelites two were there, went out to the towns of Judas,
-
smashed the sacred stones and cut down these sharepoels that
-
destroyed the high places and the altars throughout Judah and
-
Benjamin and Ephraim Amenista. After they've destroyed all of them,
-
the Israelites return to their own towns, into their own property.
-
At all times, other gods are destroyed by keeping the
-
Passover holy. When they kept the past Over holy, they
-
realize the idols and destroyed them. All idols are other
-
gods Exodus twenty, verse one, and God spoke all these words.
-
This is the ten Commandments. Verse two. I'm the Lord
-
your God who brought you out of Egypt, out of
-
the land of slavery. You shall have no other gods
-
before me. Then the first commandment is you shall have
-
no other gods before me. But we learned the passover
-
is the way to have no other gods before God.
-
Then the pastorver fulfills worshiping God only because it judges
-
other gods at old times. Deuteronomy thirteen, Verse one. If
-
a prophet, one who for tells by dreams, appears among
-
you and announces to you a sign or wonder, and
-
if the signer wonder is spoken of takes place, and
-
the prophet says, let us follow other gods God you
-
have not known, and let us worship them, you must
-
not listen to the words of that prophet or dreamer.
-
The Lord your God is testing you to find out
-
whether you love him with all your heart, with all
-
your soul. It is the Lord God you must follow,
-
and him you must revere, keep his commands and obey him,
-
serve him, and hold fast him. That prophet or dream
-
must be put to death for insight and rebellion against
-
the Lord your God had brought you out of Egypt
-
and redeemed you from the land of slavery. The prophet's
-
dreamer tried to turn you away from the Lord your
-
God commanded to follow. You must purge that you will
-
from wrong you. False prophets are misleading people. They must
-
be put to death, being immobilized. A false prophet to
-
prevent people from keeping the Passover in all ages, what
-
thieves must be keep to fulfilled the first commandment, it's
-
the Passover. What thieves must be fulfilled. Yeah, the first
-
commandment is the Passover. That's that's the peace you must keep.
-
People who claim to believe in God but don't keep
-
the Passover, or like the isralit to claim to believe
-
in God but worships all sorts of idols. God is
-
going to judge the whole world in these last days
-
Isaiah twenty four to one. See, the Lord is going
-
to lay waste the earth been devastated. He will ruin
-
its face and scatter its inhabitants. It will be the
-
same for precess for people, from masters, for servants for mistress,
-
as for a servant for cellar, as for buyer for borrower,
-
as for lenders, for depth dress for creditor. The Earth
-
will be completely raised and totally plundered. The Lord has
-
spoken this word. The earth drives up and withers. The
-
world languages and withers the heaven language with the earth.
-
The Earth is defiled by its people. They have disobeyed
-
the law, as violated the statues, and broken the Everlasting Covenant.
-
The Earth will be punished and judge and judge for
-
violating and breaking the Everlasting Covenant. The Everlasting Covenant is
-
a new covenant pass over Jesus established with his last
-
thank you,
