Exodus 12:21-23 KJV Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said unto them, Draw out and take you a lamb according to your families, and kill the passover. (22) And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the bason, and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that is in the bason; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning. (23) For the LORD will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, the LORD will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you.
ALL THAT STOOD BETWEEN THE FIRSTBORN AND DEATH WAS THE BLOOD STAINS OF A LITTLE DEAD LAMB.
To walk through that threshold and stake your entire life and survival upon a meek little lamb’s bloodstains on the doorway IS TO HAVE FAITH!
When you stake your entire eternity and your soul’s destiny on getting baptized into the death of Jesus Christ, INSTEAD OF ALL YOUR GOOD DEEDS YOU CAN MUSTER UP TO EARN YOUR WAY TO HEAVEN BY GOOD WORKS, THAT IS FAITH!
You cannot even see what’s happening.
• You are on the inside of the house and outside the destroyer comes and outside the blood of the lamb is displayed before that destroyer, and God’s Spirit stands between the destroyer and you because He sees that blood.
• That represents how in the unseen realm, outside of our physical reality, God’s Spirit sees faith in our hearts upon the death of Jesus as our only means of deliverance from the destruction of eternal death, and that death is prohibited by God to NOT TOUCH US, THAT IS FAITH!
People are so caught up in what they see and what they can physically do that it’s utter foolishness for them to BELIEVE THE DEATH OF JESUS is what they must rely on for salvation.
Call it hate and call it whatever you like. God chose the foolishness of faith in the death of Christ to save us.
It makes much more SENSE to do GOOD and earn your way to glory. But it's FOLLY in the eyes of the world to believe Christ's death is the only things that saves us.
God did not look for works to deliver Israel that night. He didn't look for kind deeds to others. They would have all perished that night if they tried to earn deliverance from good works. he looked for the BLOOD OF THE LAMB.
That's not hate. It's the greatest LOVE there is in God sending His Son to die for humanity that would have all crucified and hated him if they were in Israel's shoes that day.
Call it hate all you like!
