The Blood Upon The Door: Pesach/Passover 5778 - Good Friday 2018




"On the fourteenth day of the first month at twilight
is the Lord's Passover."
Leviticus 23:5




And There Was A Great Cry In Egypt
Arthur Hacker
(1898)




When the Lord passed over Egypt,
There was weeping everywhere,
For the angel smote the firstborn
Of each family dwelling there;
But some houses He passed over;
As His word had said before,
And death entered not the portals
Where the blood was on the door.

(Refrain)
Precious blood upon the door,
Saving blood upon the door;
O, my soul there is no danger,
When the blood is on the door.






We are in a land of danger;
And death lurks on every hand;
But that soul has perfect safety
Who obeys the Lord's command;
For secure in God's pavilion,
He can watch life's breakers roar;
For God's angels guard that dwelling
Where the blood is on the door.

(Refrain)


Not the blood of lambs or cattle,
Sprinkled over any part,
But the blood of Christ the Savior,
Can redeem a human heart;
Then when death those ties shall sever;
And we walk on earth no more,
We may live with Christ forever
If His blood is on the door.

(Refrain)



Jesus, King of Kings

"It is common at this time of the year for Jewish
believers in Jesus to host special church events with
titles like, "Messiah in the Passover Seder"
During these presentations, which can draw many
hundreds of people, the teaching will point to 
Jesus/Yeshua, the Lamb of God, as the
centerpiece of the Passover.
He is the One who paved the way for a
deliverance even greater than the Exodus from Egypt.
He is the One whose blood redeems us from God's judgement.
He is the Passover Lamb!
So, during the meal, the participants look back to Exodus,
they look back to the Cross, and they celebrate
the Jewish roots of their faith."
-Michael L. Brown


"Not to us, O Lord, not to us but
to Your name give glory, for Your mercy
and loving-kindness and for the sake of
Your truth and faithfulness!"
Psalm 115:1
