The Continuing Church of God is pleased to announce this sermon from its ContinuingCOG channel:
1:14:12
Christians, Change, and the Days of Unleavened Bread
What are the Days of Unleavened Bread? Should Christians keep them? What does the Bible teach? What is leaven? What does leaven represent? What does unleavened bread represent? How do Christians keep the Days of Unleavened Bread? Does the New Testament teach anything about it? Why seven days? Should you be examining yourself then? Once we are converted and accept Jesus’ sacrifice do we really need to change? Or is simply believing enough? Will you use righteous judgment or look to outward appearances? Will you obey the God of the Bible or prefer your own traditions? What does God require from His people? Dr. Thiel answers these questions and more.
