I understand why Christians observe communion but should Christians observe Passover ? Is there any benefit to it since Christ The Lamb Of God shed His blood for our justification ?

Many Christians do things out of a religious habit or a religious rite regardless of whether it is a must or not. So I think if they want to celebrate passover then they should just as if they should be able to not celebrate any holiday at all. I don't know if there are added benefits to celebrating it other than just creating a certain culture for ones life.

I think it would be great to celebrate passover, it is definately part of our inheritance....although we have rightly put our 'focus' on Christ at this season. God took the Israelites out of bondage in Egypt, but now he has offered us an even greater redemption than freedom from Egypt. That being said....here is an interesting question....How many of us who are 'saved' through Christ.....have allowed ourselves to slip back into the bondage of Egypt? (in principle, not the actual country)
