The Feast of Unleavened Bread begins on the fifteenth day of the first
month and ends on the twenty-first day of the first month Ex 12:15-20. You shall eat nothing leavened and you shall
have no leaven within your dwellings. This Festival lasts a complete seven days. The first and the last days being
holy days upon which no work of any kind (servile work) may be done.
Israel went out of Egypt on the evening
beginning the fifteenth day of the first month, the first day of this Feast. This day is a memorial of the coming forth
from Egypt. Israel journeyed six days and came to the Red Sea. On the sixth day they passed through the Red Sea,
upon dry land, while the armies of Egypt were all drowned. The six days of creation reveal a completed physical creation
in Genesis, while the seventh day was a Sabbath of peace in the presence of God. This physical creation was a type or
allegory of a spiritual creation. For six thousand years God is calling and perfecting His firstfruits, in preparation
for a thousand year Sabbath of peace in the Kingdom of God on the earth, Rev 5:10, Rev 20:6, Heb 4:4-11 and 2 Pet 3:8. Even
so, the six days of Unleavened Bread reveal a six thousand year process of the spiritual creation of the Firstfruits of the
New Covenant, The Bride of Christ, 2 Pet 3:8. While the seventh day celebrates a millennium, a Sabbath of peace
in the presence of God. The leaven represents sin and for six thousand years God is putting sin out of and purifying His firstfruits!
Israel as a type of God's firstfruits, was called out of Egypt even as the firstfruits have been called out of this
world. The first six days of unleavened bread represent six thousand years 2 Pet 3:8 that God is calling out His firstfruits
and purging from them the leaven of sin. From righteous Abel through Noah, Moses, Elijah, Joshua, Daniel, Job,
David and Isaiah to John, Paul and the thousands of others called to this way of the ETERNAL GOD. The first day is HOLY
because it marks the beginning of God's plan for humanity, His plan to qualify a people to be reborn as the
spiritual children of God For six thousand years the task continues. The seventh day is holy because it represents
a millennium, a Sabbath of rest, in the presence of God.
On the sixth day, Israel was baptized in the Red
Sea 1 Cor 10:1-2. Thus completing the process of bringing them out of Egypt. Baptism washes away sin, through Christ
Acts 22:16, thus Israel symbolically fulfilled a role, as a type of the called of the new covenant. Baptism is a figurative
death of the old sinful nature and the begetting of a new nature in Christ. It is a type of DEATH AND RESURRECTION!
As Israel was baptized in the sea near the end of the sixth day, so spiritual Israel SHALL rise from death in a resurrection
of the firstfruits on the end of the sixth day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread! At the end of six thousand years, God will
complete the process of calling out and purifying His firstfruits and raise them up in the resurrection! Total VICTORY
through the POWER OF GOD will be achieved over the god of this world, even as total victory was granted to Israel at the Red
Sea. The sixth day pictures the firstfruits, unpolluted by the leaven of sin, through the application of the sacrifice
of the Lamb of God, resurrected and given VICTORY over satan. The seventh day pictures a Sabbath, a millennium
of rest Heb 3:9 for the people of God.
It has often been taught that Israel went through the sea on the seventh
day. There is nothing in scripture to support this error. If anyone can find any statement anywhere in the Holy Scriptures
that says that Israel came through the Red Sea on the seventh day of Unleavened Bread, PLEASE send me the reference
Yes, my friends; the Spring Harvest is truly reaped IN THE SPRING and NOT in the Autumn as so many have been taught.
