Now let’s continue on and see, how then, we have redemption, deliverance which then includes sanctification, justification; and also to help us as we go on our exodus leaving this world as it were and developing the righteousness of Christ.

Now let’s come to I Peter 1 and let’s see how he brings all of this together in this chapter. This is really quite a tremendous chapter, and we will see how it intersperses the things of the Passover – through redemption, setting aside; and also how it pictures deliverance and how it pictures our overcoming, and how it pictures how we are to grow in grace and knowledge, all in this one single chapter.

So let’s begin right here in verse 1: “Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the elect strangers scattered in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia [these are the Gentiles who were scattered out there]; who have been chosen according to the predetermined knowledge of God the Father…” So we’ve been chosen. So being redeemed, we’ve been chosen, or chosen then redeemed. “…According to the predetermined knowledge of God the Father, by sanctification through the Spirit…” Now this becomes very, very important: “…unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: grace and peace be multiplied to you.” So all of this results in grace from God, peace with God, we are delivered.

Now hold your place here and come to I John 3 and let’s see how this also works together in sanctification of the Spirit, because once we have been redeemed, and delivered, and sanctified we have been sanctified by the Spirit of God and we become part of the church of the firstborn. We belong to God. Like God said, “All the firstborn are Mine.” Now you think on that a little bit more and that helps you understand the severity of the unpardonable sin.

Now, I John 3:1: “Behold! What glorious love the Father has given to us, that we should be called the children of God!” Not yet born – we are begotten, but we are the children of God, selected by Him, chosen by Him, redeemed by Him, delivered by Him, you see. “For this very reason, the world does not know us because it did not know Him. Beloved, now we are the children of God [just like a child in the womb is growing and developing], and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be [because we haven’t been born again yet – that takes place at the resurrection]; but we know that when He is manifested, we shall be like Him, because we shall see Him exactly as He is.” And that’s born again at the resurrection.

Now verse 3, a very key thing concerning the hope we talked about with Abraham and the hope that we are going to talk about here in I Peter 1: “And everyone who has this hope in him purifies himself, even as He is pure.” And that’s what the Feast of Unleavened Bread is all about – to overcome sin, to get rid of sin, to have our minds cleansed, to have our hearts purified. You see, it is a process because God is creating in us His Holy and His perfect character through His Spirit. And this requires then our love and obedience and dedication because we’ve been sanctified by God.

Now here is the contrast. We are going to see this. And this is why God constantly instructed the children of Israel to not go back into Egypt, because that personifies the way of the world, the way of Satan the devil. We are not to be living in sin. Now verse 4: “Everyone who practices sin is also practicing lawlessness, for sin is lawlessness.” And the KJV says sin is the transgression of the law. “And you know that He appeared in order that He might take away our sins; and in Him is no sin.” There is the substitutionary sacrifice, correct? Yes. “Everyone who dwells in Him [which we are by the power of God’s Holy Spirit] does not practice sin…” And that’s the whole purpose of the Feast of Unleavened Bread that leaven is a type of sin. We are to put the leaven out of our homes, we are to put sin out of our lives, and all that ties in together. It doesn’t say we don’t sin, because as long as we have the law of sin and death in us, as we have seen as the apostle Paul wrote there in Romans 7, we are going to be sinning, but as long as we do not sin a sin unto death it is a forgivable sin and upon repentance we are forgiven and the grace of God applies to us here. “…Anyone who practices sin has not seen Him [now he’s talking about those false anti-Christ prophets that were coming around and saying it’s ok to sin], nor has known Him. Little children, do not allow anyone to deceive you…” And that’s another thing concerning the Feast of Unleavened Bread, because unleavened bread strips bare human nature before God and shows how then in spirit and in truth we will not then be deceived. “…Do not allow anyone to deceive you; the one who practices righteousness is righteous, even as He is righteous. The one who practices sin is of the devil because the devil has been sinning from the beginning.” So you see, that’s why Paul said, “Do we abolish law because of grace? God forbid. We establish law.” See, because it’s to be written in our hearts and our minds and that’s the whole purpose of the Feast of Unleavened Bread because the more of the Word of God we get in, the more sin we put out; the more of the power of God’s Holy Spirit we have, the more that He exposes in us the sin that is within so we can repent. And all of those things work together, and that’s what the spiritual purpose of the Feast of Unleavened Bread is for.

                        “For this purpose the Son of God appeared that He might destroy the works of the devil.” And the first place to begin destroying it is within our lives. Now, stop and think about this in relationship to the Passover: Did He not destroy all the works of the devil in Egypt in judging Egypt with all the plagues and all the things that were there and on the Passover night judging all the gods and religious practices of Egypt? Yes, indeed. And He’s going to destroy every one of the works of the devil when He returns.

Now verse 9 is a key thing: “Everyone who has been begotten by God does not practice sin because His seed of begettal is dwelling within him, and he is not able to practice sin because he has been begotten by God” (I John 3:1-9, FV). Now let me explain this verse thoroughly to you, which is this: You have the Holy Spirit of God which is the begettal. You come along and as exposed by the Feast of Unleavened Bread and God’s Spirit in you, you see sin in your life. You are convicted of what sin is and you repent of it. That is God working in your life so you don’t practice sin. Now notice it doesn’t say: You do not sin. It says you do not practice sin.

Now come over here to I John 5, and this is very important for us to understand concerning sin. Verse 16: “If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin that is not unto death…” In other words it is a forgivable sin as Jesus said, “ ‘Because of this, I say to you, every sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven to men except the blasphemy against the Holy Spirit; that shall not be forgiven to men. And whoever speaks a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this age nor in the coming age.’ ” (Matt. 12:31-32, FV). So Jesus there in Matthew 12 showed there are forgivable and unforgivable sins. So a sin that is not unto death is a forgivable sin. So if you are convicted in conscience of sin within and you repent of it, it is forgiven, it is a forgivable sin.

Now if you want to know about the unpardonable sin, go to our series in the book of Hebrews, or get the tapes on that, or in our new book that we’re publishing here pretty soon we are going to have in there about what the unpardonable sin is.

Now: “…he shall ask [now if you see a brother sinning, pray for him], and He [that is God] will give him life for those who do not sin unto death.” In other words He’ll lead them to repentance. That’s all of God’s purpose – to lead us to repentance. “There is a sin unto death; concerning that sin, I do not say that he should make any supplication to God” (I John 5:16, FV).

            So, back here to Chapter 3. We don’t practice sin. Now let’s read verse 10 because it becomes very important in understanding this: “By this standard are manifest the children of God [who are the church of the firstborn – chosen, set aside by God, redeemed, delivered by God] and the children of the devil. Everyone who does not practice righteousness is not of God, and neither is the one who does not love his brother” So there we go. Now come over here just a few more verses toward Chapter 3 and let’s read this here, verse 18, here’s the whole sum of it. This is where we are headed. This is the goal of our behavior: “My little children, we should not love in word, nor with our tongues; rather, we should love in deed and in truth. And in this way we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before Him…” So God wants us to have the confidence. Now we go back and we can apply this to the children of Israel leaving the land of Egypt. They left with a high hand. In other words they had confidence – confidence in God, trust in God, although it didn’t last very long, as we will see, because they didn’t have the Holy Spirit of God. But here we have the Spirit of God and we are to assure our hearts before God and to know that we are right with God. That’s what everything that God wants us to do is all about.

Verse 20: “…That if our hearts condemn us [because we’ve sinned – it’s a forgivable sin], God is greater than our hearts, and knows all things. Beloved, if our hearts do not condemn us, then we have confidence toward God. And whatever we may ask we receive from Him because we keep His commandments and practice those things that are pleasing in His sight” (I John 3:10, 18-22, FV). And that’s what God wants us to do.

Now let’s come back to I Peter 1, and we are going to see all of these elements here again in the first chapter concerning what God has done. Now let’s begin here in verse 3. That’s where we left off before with verse 2: “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Who, according to His abundant mercy, has begotten us again unto a living hope…” And that living hope is through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead because He is the firstborn from among many brethren, and we are the church of the firstborn, and what we are going to look at here is the process of perfection.

Now hold your place here and come back to Hebrews 12 because I refer to this, but let’s see what it is that God is doing with us, and let’s see how He is doing it, and let’s see the purpose in it. Sometimes we expect things to go totally perfect in our lives every day in every way and we end up with many difficulties and challenges and problems and maybe even get depressed over sinning and all of these things. Well look, that’s all a part of God dealing with you so you’re going to trust in Him, as we will see, and trust in Him for your deliverance because that’s what the Feast of Unleavened Bread is all about.

Now here is the goal. Let’s come here to Hebrews 12:22: “But you have come to Mount Sion, and to the city of the living God, heavenly Jerusalem; and to an innumerable company of angels; to the joyous festival gathering; and to the church of the firstborn…” That is us, and all of the saints down through time beginning with Abel and until the return of Jesus Christ. Now at the resurrection when we are born again and become the literal family of the firstborn of God, redeemed, delivered, resurrected, given eternal life – that’s the goal. “…To the joyous festival gathering [so you see, that’s why I said this also ties into Pentecost, as we will see]; and to the church of the firstborn, registered in the book of life in heaven; and to God, the Judge of all; and to the spirits of the just who have been perfected…” (Heb. 12:22-23, FV). Now that’s what God is doing in our lives. That’s why we go through the things that we go through – to be perfected.

Now come back here to I Peter 1 and let’s see how this is. You see, we have the living hope. We don’t trust into the flesh. We don’t trust in the physical things around us. We need them to exist as long as we are physical human beings, that is true, but we don’t look at that as a great thing. We’re thankful and grateful for all that God gives us and does for us and provides for us because we need it, that is true. But here is what we are looking to because our hope goes beyond this life.

Verse 4: “…Unto an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and unfading, reserved in heaven for us…” See, because on the Passover night Jesus told His apostles what? “I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go I will come again and receive you to Myself so that where I am you may be also.” That is our hope – reserved, unfading, undefiled. Now notice verse 5: “…Who are being safeguarded by the power of God through faith, for salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time.” That’s the way that God does. He sets the goal, He sets the perspective whereas you could say “the vision” because without vision the people perish, and God has given this vision of the hope of our calling and where we are going and what we are doing, and that’s what the Feast of Unleavened Bread is all about – that we desire to get rid of sin, that we desire to overcome human nature, that we desire to be delivered out of the difficulties and problems that we are in, and all of those work for the character of building love and hope and faith and grace and temperance and longsuffering and mercy and understanding – all the fruits of the Holy Spirit, all of the character that comes from God.

Now verse 6: “In this you yourselves greatly rejoice [which we ought to]; though for the present, if it is necessary, you are in distress for a little while by various trials; in order that the proving of your faith…” Just like God proved Abraham’s faith, correct? Yes. “…Which is much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is being tested by fire, may be found unto praise and honor and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ…” (I Peter 1:4-7, FV).

Now let’s look how we trust in God to redeem us and to deliver us. Hold your place here because we’ll come back to I Peter 1. Let’s come to Titus 2. First we must be redeemed. That’s what God did with the children of Israel, right? He redeemed them. Next then we have to be delivered, and we will see that. Let’s go up here to verse 11 and follow through with how Paul wrote. You know many of the things that are written in Greek, they have long run-on sentences which are unacceptable in English but they work just fine in Greek.

Verse 11: “For the grace of God, which brings salvation for all men, has appeared…” That’s Christ, His sacrifice, His resurrection. All of that is the grace of God and salvation. “…Teaching us that, having denied ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live moderately and righteously and godly in this present world…” That’s how we are to be. That’s what unleavened bread is all about. “…Looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our Savior and great God, Jesus Christ; Who gave Himself for us, so that He might redeem us from all lawlessness…” There you have it. Just like when God redeemed Israel when He slew all the first born in Egypt, He redeemed Abraham, He redeemed Isaac, and here’s the purpose: “…and might purify for Himself [that’s the whole process of growing, changing, and overcoming, and the purpose of Unleavened Bread] a unique people, zealous of good works.” That’s what we should be. “Speak these things, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Do not let anyone despise you” (Titus 2:11-15, FV). So there is redemption.

Now let’s look at some deliverance. When we get into the trials and difficulties that Peter spoke of let’s see how we are to look to God to deliver us. Let’s come to Psalm 7. And we all need deliverance. Sometimes there are times when we go before God… I know I do. I know you do. And sometimes there are so many things pressing in upon you that the only thing you can do is like one of the psalms there where he starts out, he says, “Help.” And another one says, “Hear me.” And another one is, “O God, I’m so overwhelmed I can hardly lift up my head.” And sometimes you get into those things. Alright, let’s pick it up here in Psalm 7. Here is how we are to approach God, because first there is redemption and then there is deliverance. And deliverance is based upon hope and trust and so forth.

Verse 1: “O Lord my God, in Thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me…” And so you go before God and say, “Oh God I’m overwhelmed with this. Please just intervene, deliver me, help me, open the way, open the door, give me understanding, help me to realize why I’m going through what I’m going through. Give me of Your Spirit, give me of Your truth, deliver me from this situation.” “…Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver” (Psa. 7:1-2, KJV).

Now come over here to Psalm 25. This is quite a psalm of deliverance, and one that we can also apply to our prayers and our thoughts and yieldedness to God asking God to deliver us, you see. Now in deliverance there is trust. You must trust in God, which is active faith, active belief, knowing that what God has said that He’s a God that cannot and will not lie, His Word is true. You know, sometimes, just like the man who wanted to have the demon cast out of his son and Jesus said, “If you believe, all things are possible.” He said, “Lord, I believe. Help my unbelief.” So lots of times we need to go to God in that way and we need to look to Him and just ask Him, “Help us.” But that trust and faith go hand in hand with redemption.

Psalm 25:1: “Unto Thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul. O my God, I trust in Thee…” That’s what we are to do – trust in God. What is the scripture which says, “Trust no man.” Every time you trust some man you get in trouble, right? Yes, we’ve got a long history of that, don’t we? Yes.

“…Let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me. Yea, let none that wait on Thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause.” Now notice what happens then when we have that kind of attitude, and when we are trusting in God and looking to Him: “Shew me Thy ways, O LORD; teach me Thy paths. Lead me in Thy truth, and teach me…” See, this is what we need to be – teachable by God with His Spirit and in truth. “…For Thou art the God of my salvation; on Thee do I wait all the day.” Now notice how he reminded God. When you get down and desperate and in the fiery trial that Peter was talking about here in I Peter 1, remember this, verse 6: “Remember, O LORD, Thy tender mercies and Thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old. Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to Thy mercy remember Thou me for Thy goodness’ sake, O LORD. Good and upright is the LORD: therefore will He teach sinners in the way. The meek will He guide in judgment: and the meek will He teach His way.” And that’s what the Exodus is all about – it is “the way” of God. “All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep His covenant and His testimonies.” Then he says: “For Thy name’s sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great” (Psa. 25:1-11, KJV).

Come over here to Chapter 27 now and let’s see how this is also amplified here, and how we have trust, we have deliverance, we have yieldedness to God. Verse 11: “Teach me Thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path…” And that’s what we need God to do – God, with His Spirit to teach us. Then in every situation that we learn. Now many times we get frustrated in some of the things we are going through, and in overcoming there are very difficult challenges for us, but let’s have Him teach us, see.

“…Lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies. Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies…” Now notice, for here is a prophecy of Christ: “…for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty. I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living [projecting forward to the resurrection]. Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and He shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD” (Psa. 27:11-14, KJV) and He will deliver us. There is no question about it.

Now let’s come back to I Peter 1 here again and let’s see how Peter continues going on showing all of these elements that we have concerning the Feast of Unleavened Bread and growing and changing and overcoming in faith, in truth, and love, and all off those things are all combined together here in the first chapter of I Peter. So it’s really very interesting when you get in and you study the Bible and you see how God inspired them to write, you see how that all the elements of the truth of God are brought in different ways and in different manners. And so here we have this concerning many of the aspects of the Feast of Unleavened Bread and the redemption of the firstborn being sanctified and set aside by God for a special and a holy use.

Let’s go over verse 7 again: “…In order that the proving of your faith…” And that’s what it’s all about – He’s going to prove our faith. “…Which is much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is being tested by fire, may be found unto praise and honor and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ; Whom, not having seen, you love; in Whom, though at the present time you do not see Him, you believe…” So here we have hope, we have belief, we have faith, we have love. And also: “…rejoice with unspeakable joy, and filled with glory; and are receiving the end of your faith—even the salvation of your souls…” Well, it’s the salvation that we have been given here.

Now notice: “…concerning which salvation…” See, we’ve been redeemed, we have been delivered. And of course we ask God every day, “Deliver us from our sins, deliver us from the evil one.” And God has intervened to do that, you see. “…The prophets who prophesied of the grace that would come to you have diligently searched out and intently inquired, searching into what way and what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them was indicating, testifying beforehand of the sufferings of Christ, and these glories that would follow…” (I Peter 1:7-11, FV). So it’s quite a thing, isn’t it?

Now let’s see how that’s accomplished. Come here to Colossians 1 and let’s see again of the deliverance. And here in this case rescuing. God has to intervene and rescue us from Satan the devil, just exactly in the same way that He had to intervene and rescue the firstborn and the children of Israel in Egypt and deliver them.

Now let’s come over here to Colossians 1:10: “…That you may walk worthily of the Lord, unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work and growing in the knowledge of God…” And that’s what it needs to be. Every year we keep the Passover, keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread, and all the holy days of God; that we are growing in the knowledge of God so every year we learn more; we are preparing for the resurrection; we are growing in grace and knowledge; we are growing in love and faith and hope and trust and all of those things, you see.

Now notice what that does, verse 11: “…being strengthened with all power according to the might of His glory, unto all endurance [because we must endure to the end] and long-suffering with joy…” Now let’s understand something: every year there are going to be saints who are going to come to the end of their lives and die. God said there is a time to die. And when you die you’re going to die of something, aren’t you? Yes, because your body being physical, and your body being corruptible and being weak, is going to die of something. So we need to realize that. But let’s look at it the way that God looks at it. He says, “Blessed in the eyes of the Lord is the death of His saints.” Why? Because death is actually a graduation. You graduate from this physical life and are put in the grave and you wait the resurrection. And when you die there is no more sin, there is no more pain, there is no more wretchedness. But the next thought that you will have will be the resurrection and the angels carrying you up to meet Christ on the sea of glass in the air with all the other saints. So let’s keep focused on that, that we are enduring to the end and looking to the longsuffering of God to help us to do that.

Verse 12: “…giving thanks to the Father, Who has made us qualified for the share of the inheritance of the saints in the light…” Now notice verse 13. Very important thing: “…Who has personally rescued us from the power of darkness…” Now you go back and you can see that situation with the children of Israel when they were in Egypt. Was there not the plague of darkness? Does that not signify the darkness of Satan the devil? And did He not give light to the children of Israel who were living in Goshen at that time? Yes. “…personally rescued us from the power of darkness…” Who controls the power of darkness? Satan the devil. We are rescued and delivered from the evil one. Just like God rescued the children of Israel and brought them out of Egypt and rescued them from the evil of that terrible and wretched society and the slavery in which they were held captive. “…And has transferred us unto the kingdom of the Son of His love…” We are under the authority of God the Father and Jesus Christ. That’s what’s important to understand. “…In Whom we have redemption…” So here we go right back to the redeeming of the firstborn, the delivery of the firstborn, the walking in the way of God, the exodus out of sin. “…Even the remission of sins…” (Col. 1:10-14, FV).

Now let’s come back and we’ll finish I Peter 1 here. So you see how all of these things work. how all of these things come together, and how He saves us. Now come back here to I Peter 1 and let’s pick it up here in verse 11: “…searching into what way and what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them was indicating, testifying beforehand of the sufferings of Christ, and these glories that would follow; to whom it was revealed that, not for themselves, but to us they were ministering these things, which now have been announced to you by those who have preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit, sent from heaven—into which things the angels desire to look.”

Now here is the lesson we need to do. Here is the lesson for the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Because of all of this… Now see you start out with Chapter 1, verse 1 and you come down here to verse 13 and he gives the summary. Now he says: “For this reason, be prepared in your minds [that’s what the Feast of Unleavened Bread is all about], be self-controlled [with the Spirit of God], and be fully hoping in the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.” And the greatest grace we have to receive yet is what? The resurrection, right? Yes. Which will be when? When Christ returns.

Now: “As obedient children [this is what God wants us to be], do not conform yourselves to the former lusts, as you did in your ignorance.” Don’t go back and live the way that you lived. If it comes back, starts to creep back, that’s just like leaven growing in your life – get rid of it. Put in the unleavenedness of Christ. And that unleavenedness comes through the Spirit of God, as obedient children, see. Don’t go back the way that you did in your former lust as in your ignorance. Now you are educated with the Word of God and the Spirit of God. “But according as He Who has called you is holy, you yourselves also be holy in all your conduct; for it is written, ‘You be holy because I am holy.’ ” A perfect summation of the Feast of Unleavened Bread. We are to come from something which is leavened and unholy to something which is unleavened and holy. See, because leaven during the Feast of Unleavened Bread pictures a type of sin. And as we know that Paul said, “Let us keep the feast. Not with the old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness.” Notice how Paul and Peter agree. If you put I Corinthians 5 together with I Peter 1 they agree, don’t they?

Now notice: “And if you call upon the Father, Who judges according to each man’s work without respect of persons, pass the time of your life’s journey in the fear of God; knowing that you were not redeemed by corruptible things, by silver or gold, from your futile way of living, inherited by tradition from your forefathers; but by the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot…” Now that’s why we need to do the things that we do. So we have that we have been redeemed, we have been set aside, that we go forward in the way that God wants us to do.

Now let’s just finish a few verse here in closing. Verse 20: “…Who truly was foreknown before the foundation of the world, but was manifested in these last times for your sakes; even for you who through Him do believe in God, Who raised Him from the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope might be in God. Having purified your lives by obedience to the Truth unto unfeigned brotherly love through the Spirit, love one another fervently with a pure heart. For you have been begotten again, not from corruptible seed, but from incorruptible seed, by the living Word of God, which remains forever” (I Peter 1:11-23, FV).

And that’s the meaning of the Feast of Unleavened Bread. We are the church of the firstborn. We have been called and set aside and purified, delivered, to have faith and hope and trust and love with God. Have a good Feast of Unleavened Bread, brethren. And take these things and every day during the Feast do some extra Bible study and ask God to help you with His Spirit to grow, to change, to overcome, and to have your life transformed through this Feast of Unleavened Bread that you become more Christ-like.
