Bible Question: Wasn't the Passover to be celebrated 7 days and would not 14 days been wrong? |
Bible Answer: It's difficult to answer your question without knowing the motivation behind it. Is it wrong to celebrate (i.e., worship) Almighty God and all that He has done for us, for more than 30 minutes during a church service? Or, is it wrong to worship Almighty God (our Lord Jesus Christ)for more than 10 minutes a day? I think not, especially considering that God Almighty has forgiven us our sins (passed over us), simply because we believe in the atoning power of the precious blood of Jesus (i.e, the sinless Lamb of God). We were created to worship the Lord. Oftentimes, we get so "stuck" in our religious rituals and traditions that we miss out on the movement of the Holy Spirit within us and a marvelous time of fellowship and intimacy with our Lord. Jesus tells us, in John 4:23, "But an hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks to be His worshipers." I pray this helps! prazn |
