"Between the ...What's going on in Revelation 5:6? "Between the throne and the four living creatures and among the elders, I saw a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain..." I mean the Bible, and especially John, is full of meaningless details, NOT. So what's this "as though it had been slain." Is it, maybe, denoting a sacrifice? Within the context of Johannine theology and the context of the passage, I think it is safe to say that 1)Jesus is the Lamb and 2)It aint 33 AD. So what's happening in this passage? <BR/> Just something to chew on.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1275801814192618803.post-29777220714875761772007-10-02T23:47:00.000-04:002007-10-02T23:47:00.000-04:00It is interesting that you say that those particip...It is interesting that you say that those participating in the passover think of themselves as the ones actually being freed from bondage as though they were actually captives in Egypt. Sometimes we read a bit too much into the Scriptures. In the New Revised Standard Edition it states <BR/><BR/>Exodus 14 This day shall be a day of remembrance for you. You shall celebrate it as a festival to the Lord; throughout your generations you shall observe it as a perpetual ordinance. <BR/><BR/>It is signified as an act of remembrance, not a reinactment where the participants are transformed back into the state of bondage. This is a foreshadowing of the comming messiah. We have to ask ourselves, what saved the Hebrews that day, the Blood, the lamb or God Himself? The eating of the lamb and the posting of blood on the doorposts was an act of obedience, but it was not what saved them. It was God's mercy that saved them. He gave strict orders to have a feast to remember that day which was for remembrance. <BR/><BR/>24 You shall observe this rite as a perpetual ordinance for you and your children. 25 When you come to the land that the Lord will give you, as he has promised, you shall keep this observance. 26 And when your children ask you, ‘What do you mean by this observance?’ 27 you shall say, ‘It is the passover sacrifice to the Lord, for he passed over the houses of the Israelites in Egypt, when he struck down the Egyptians but spared our houses.’ ” And the people bowed down and worshiped.<BR/><BR/>That brings us to the fact that when Jesus spoke in the upper room, He spoke of doing this in remembrance. Just as those Jewish people today who celebrate passover in remembrance as an ordinance do not use the same lamb and blood, we do not place Jesus Christ back on the cross and sacrafice Him again. We remember what He did for us as our passover lamb. Just as we are to do through the Lord's Supper. Paul tells us that in Corinthians.<BR/><BR/>23 For I received from the Lord what I also handed on to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took a loaf of bread, 24 and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body that is fork you. Do this in remembrance of me.” 25 In the same way he took the cup also, after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.” 26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.<BR/><BR/>Notice that he says that He gave thanks and broke the bread, not that he blessed the bread so that it became His body. Just as God commanded to the Hebrews as He brought them out of Egypt, He also commands us to do this in remembrance, proclaiming the Lord's death until He comes. The significance of the Lord's Supper is not diminished by the fact that we are not actually partaking in the actual Blood and Body, the significance is in the remebrance of His sacrafice and honoring Jesus with our willingness to confess Him until He returns.
