Matthew 26:1-5 refers to PASSOVER NEWS.

Matthew 26:1-2
26:1. Now it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these sayings, that He said to His disciples,
26:2. "You know that after two days is the Passover, and the Son of Man will be delivered up to be crucified."


In the Old Testament, passover was signified with killing the lamb.
In the New Testament, passover was signified with crucifixion of Jesus as The Lamb of God.

Exodus 12:14-15
12:14. 'So this day shall be to you a memorial; and you shall keep it as a feast to the LORD throughout your generations. You shall keep it as a feast by an everlasting ordinance.
12:15. 'Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread. On the first day you shall remove leaven from your houses. For whoever eats leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that person shall be cut off from Israel.


Provision to feast passover is one must eat unleavened bread= may not have leaven. Life who eats and keeps the leaven will be cut off or perished.

In the New Testament, leaven refers to false teaching and sin leaven.

John 8:44
8:44. "You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.

Satan is source of sins who wants to fill sin leaven into mortar pot of God's son or God's servant that the mortar pot is destroyed and perished. Leaven sin which is being filled by satan starts from hatred and lie/trickery.

Matthew 26:3-4
26:3. Then the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders of the peopleassembled at the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,
26:4. and plotted to take Jesus by trickery and kill Him.


'Chief priests and the elders of the people' refer to servants of God and sons of God.

Leaven of hatred and lie will grow rapidly until top of sin, that is sin of eating-drinking and marrying-giving in marriage. The consequence is he/she will perish= become destroyed mortar pot.

Our formulation is better to throw away leaven of sin and false teaching with all risk than being cut off/destroyedforever.

I Corinthians 5:7-8
5:7. Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us.
5:8. Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of
sincerity and truth.

Leaven of sin can be cut off only by the power of Jesus' blood/blood of Passover Lamb, that we can live in truth and sincerity.

Proverbs 28:13
28:13. He who covers his sins will not prosper, But whoever confesses and forsakesthem will have mercy.

Processes for throwing leaven of sin away are:
  1. Confessing sin honestly to God and others. Jesus' blood will forgive and cover our sin until there is no remnant of the sin = throwing leaven of sin away.
  2. Having determination to forsake forgiven sin= not sinning anymore. We live in truth and sincerity.
The results of throwing leaven of sin away are:
  1. We are worthy to call Name of Jesus= worshiping God= strecthing out hand to God.

    II Timothy 2:19
    2:19. Nevertheless the solid foundation of God stands, having this seal: "The Lord knows those who are His," and, "Let everyone who names the name of Christ depart from iniquity."

    If there is a sin, we can not pray and worship God that our spirituality withers.

  2. We experience love of God= Hand of compassion, gift and mercy of God are being outstretched to us that we experience power of God.

    Proverbs 28:13
    28:13. He who covers his sins will not prosper, But whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy.

    In the mercy of God, there are 3 kinds of the power of God, those are:
    • Healing power from physical and spiritual illness.
      Mark 1:40-42
      1:40. Now a leper came to Him, imploring Him, kneeling down to Him and saying to Him, "If You are willing, You can make me clean."
      1:41. Then Jesus, moved with compassion, stretched out His hand and touched him, and said to him, "I am willing; be cleansed."
      1:42. As soon as He had spoken, immediately the leprosy left him, and he was cleansed.


      Physical illness is leprosy which is hard even impossible to be cured.
      Spiritual illness is spritual leprosy, self truth. Self truth is covering sin with blaming others. The right attitude is confessing each other and forgiving each other.

      Self truth also refers to life who easily grumbles, dealing with angel of death. Healing power brings us for giving thanks to God always.

    • Preservation power of God miraculously in the middle of world crisis.
      Mark 6:34, 37, 41-42
      6:34. And Jesus, when He came out, saw a great multitude and was moved with compassion for them, because they were like sheep not having a shepherd. So He began to teach them many things.
      6:37. But He answered and said to them, "You give them something to eat." And they said to Him, "Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give them something to eat?"
      6:41. And when He had taken the five loaves and the two fish, He looked up to heaven, blessed and broke the loaves, and gave them to His disciples to set before them; and the two fish He divided among them all.
      6:42. So they all ate and were filled.


      God's Hand of compassion is able to preserve us in the middle of world crisis until the time of antichrist's reigning over the world.

    • Power of resurrection.
      Luke 7:12-15
      7:12. And when He came near the gate of the city, behold, a dead man was being carried out, the only son of his mother; and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the city was with her.
      7:13. When the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her and said to her, "Do not weep."
      7:14. Then He came and touched the open coffin, and those who carried him stood still. And He said, "Young man, I say to you, arise."
      7:15. So he who was dead sat up and began to speak. And He presented him to his mother.


      God's Hand of compassion is able to rise what has already been dead physically (work, study, marriage and children, etc) and spiritually.

      God rises spiritually= God is able to rise our life who has already been destroyed in sin, being changed into golden pot that had manna. We become the bride who can greet God's second coming on the gloriuos cloud.
      Changing of life started from no hatred and no lie.
God blesses us.
