JESUS’ DEATH AND RESURRECTION – LESSON 3

THE SIGN OF JONAH

 

Today is the first full day of Passover. It began last night (Friday) at sundown when Jesus was placed in the tomb. Passover is a “death event” marking Jesus’ three days and three nights of his dead physical body in the burial tomb.

 

But it was only his body in the tomb. He, himself, spent those three full days in Sheol (Hades), the abode of those previously deceased, preaching to them. Then, with His resurrection, He led them (believers) that had been held captive in their ascension to heaven. Their full redemption was based on the blood he had just shed on the cross to atone for them.

 

In Matthew 12:40 and verified again in Luke 11:29, Jesus had said that as the prophet Jonah had been in the belly of the great fish (KJV whale), so also would he be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth (Hades, Sheol).

 

We must remember that a Jew’s day begins at sundown and ends the next day at sundown. This will help us understand the three days.  During Jesus’ “passion week” that meant Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, (beginning our Wednesday evening) and ending at sundown on Saturday (beginning of our Sunday, the first day of the week) were those three days.

 

 In today’s timeline of 2022 that means he entered the tomb at sundown last night, Passover, (our Friday, Jews’ Saturday) and sundown today completes his first day in the grave. Sundown tonight beings their “Sunday” and sundown Sunday, April 17, 2022, completes the second full day and night. Sundown Sunday (the Jews’ Monday) to sundown Monday April 18, 2022, completes the third full day.

 

Therefore, it was at some time after sundown Monday evening (beginning of the Jews’ Tuesday) that he arose from the grave. He arose “very early” that morning. Yes, “morning” for the Jews begins at sundown. It is then by today’s 2022 calendar, that Mary discovered the empty tomb at the first light of day on Tuesday (which started at sundown on Monday). The grave had already been empty of His body all night (Jews’ beginning of day) , but she had to wait until early dawn to go there.

 

So, this year, 2022, it is Tuesday that would actually be the true resurrection day, not “Easter Sunday” as the church declares. Of course, I have no problem celebrating Jesus’ resurrection on “Easter Sunday” because any of our 365 days that we choose to honor His resurrection is a good thing. We prefer to call it Resurrection Day rather than Easter.

 

So, let us rejoice in His resurrection to life and the eternal life it brings to us rather than celebrating Easter which is named for a pagan fertility goddess Ishtar ( Astarte). Let us not forget to praise and thank Him on Tuesday for His resurrection. In fact, it is a good thing to thank him every day and thank Father who raised Him from the dead!

OUR GUARANTEE

 

With this being the weekend that the world celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ, called Easter, we need to establish some things. In Genesis God told Adam and Eve that one would come and crush the head of the serpent. It would come down through their seed. Blood was shed by killing an animal and putting the skin on them to “cover them.”

 

The Mosaic Law came in with requirements for a yearly sacrifice for sin. The Jews would bring a lamb or turtledove to the temple. Its blood would be shed, and it covered their sin for a year. It did not put away their sin. It simply covered it. 

 

Down through the years they looked for one that would come, a Messiah that would give them total freedom from their sin. Many died looking forward to His coming. They were put in a holding place (not purgatory) until Jesus died on the cross. After his death by crucifixion, it tells us in Ephesians 4:9-10 “(Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth. He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.”) This shows us where Jesus was during those three days in the grave. It shows us that people are alive after death and have their full faculties.

 

In I Peter 3:18-19 it says, “For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison…”

 

Jesus preached to those captives the “gospel of salvation” and they, like those of us that received salvation by faith, also received salvation. In Ephesians 4:8 it says, “Wherefore he saith, “When he ascended up on high, He led captivity captive, and gave gifts to men.”

 

This preaching by Jesus while he was three days in the heart of the earth (that’s where hell is) set the captives in Sheol free, just like faith in Jesus today sets the living sinner free. Those in Sheol had faith in his coming. We have faith that he came. Those in Sheol were under the Old Covenant which looked to the cross and the resurrection, while those alive today are under the New Covenant and look back to the finished work of the cross and resurrection.

 

Jesus’ shed blood is our guarantee just like it was theirs. The teaching of purgatory is not biblical. The scripture clearly tells us that it is appointed unto man once to die and then the judgment. This scripture was written after the resurrection which began the New Covenant.

 

There is no more holding place like there was in the Old Testament. Jesus has done everything that possibly can be done for salvation. His shed blood placed on the altar in heaven is our guarantee of eternal life. No one else had sinless blood shed but Jesus. Praise God we have this guarantee!

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION


We must always remember that God gives us another chance when we fail. He "reroutes" us with his spiritual GPS. If you feel like you are at that point, then expect God to show you the way to get back on track. He is the best guide you can ever have.


Apostle Pat Murray

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION


Today is the day that christians and churches have come to know as Good Friday. However, on that fateful day so long ago…Things were looking really hopeless and a somber mood was on Christ’s loved ones, His disciples and the crowd. Now perhaps some of you are feeling much the same way…And things may indeed be looking bleak and hopeless in your world as well. Oh, but just hold on rejoice... For things won’t always be this way. Sure today is Friday..But Sunday is on the way; And the glorious Resurrection of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior is almost here. So be blessed as you reflect back on this day…Remembering how Jesus Paid it All…And Sunday is definitely on the way.
