What's the World Coming to? Global pandemics? A financial crash? There are plans for a cashless system - digital currencies. Alex Antic warns of Smart Cities. Half of all South Australian marriages end in divorce. There’s a breakdown of the family unit. Millions are on antidepressants - “happy pills”. 2 Tim 3:1-5 …in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy… lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God. 1 Tim 4:1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils. There’s all kinds of deceptive miracles, signs, and marvels. Our Lord warns: Matthew 24:11 …many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. We see a spirit of deception. 2 Thess 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed… 9 Even him (the Antichrist), whose coming is after the working of satan with all power and signs and lying wonders. The Antichrist will exercise global control. There’s increasing mass surveillance, smart devices, facial recognition. We're being listened to, watched, tracked, hacked, followed, mapped. 2 Tim 4:3-4 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. It seems some preachers dwell on foolish stories, and fictions. Our Lord warns of deception and counterfeits. Matthew 24:4 Take heed that no man deceive you! 7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences… We are on the brink of a world war. We face "the worst food crisis in modern history". The Rockefeller Foundation controls the seeds of 95% of global cereal crops. Countless farms are being shut down to save us from climate change. We have pestilences – epidemics - horrendous plagues. The WHO warns of drug-resistant germs: “...a post-antibiotic era, in which many common infections will no longer have a cure and, once again, [will] kill unabated.” Another sign: 9 …ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. Right now over 360 million Christians are suffering persecution. One out of every seven Christians. 2022 was the worst year ever. 24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. We are told of powerful signs and wonders. The stage is being set for the Antichrist. Australia is facing God's judgment... We see increasing immorality - Corruption, violence, and a rejection of God, as in Noah's day. Entertainment is full of obscenities and godlessness. The Cambridge Dictionary now defines 'Man' and 'Woman' to suit transgender views. Around 100,000 abortions occur in Australia each year. We have increasing access to euthanasia. More than 10,000 people are killed by euthanasia in Canada every year. There’s a rising of a World Government - a New World Order. There’s plans of "hackable humans." - "We can pick up and decode faces that you're seeing in your mind -- simple shapes, numbers, your PIN number to your bank account." The Bible tells of a coming One World Government System (Rev. 13:1-8). Total world control. We have had covid lockdowns. Get ready for climate lockdowns. The Bible describes: a One World Economy, a One World Religious System. The Beast's 666 system will mandate a mark system. There’s already biochips, planted in people’s skin. Our activities are to be monitored 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We see "United Religions" - a worldwide UN interfaith network. It seems like our modern culture has a tolerance for everyone but Christians. The church has become consumer-friendly, yet spiritually bankrupt. Preparations are under way for the rebuilding of the Temple in Jerusalem. The temple’s vessels and priestly clothing are being prepared, right now. Australia is racing to judgment. The Lord’s return is promised 300 times. 1 Thess 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. We have a Blessed Hope - Titus 2:13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; “Maranatha” - The Lord cometh (1 Cor. 16:22) - This was a frequent greeting between believers, as well as the triumphant cry of the martyrs. Revelation 22:20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Even so, Come Lord Jesus. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MiLyI7TBlA

1 Corinthians 5:8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. Our Lord says: Keep the Feast. The Passover was a Festival - a joyful time. A Holy Day - a holy event. As we feast we do so in... Commemoration of the Lord's Death; Memorial - in memory of His Death; Victory Celebration - Deliverance from bondage The early church called it a Love Feast. We declare and proclaim our love relationship to the Lord. • The Lord is the honoured Guest at this Feast. • Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us (v. 7). • He wants to minister to us through its observance… The early believers were "continually devoting themselves" to the apostles' teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Acts 2:42 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. Let’s not neglect it, but rather… Keep it Continue it. This feast… is... • Wondrous in its simplicity • Profound in its truth • Eternal in its dimension. We confess Christ and our faith and love for Him by this service. And so it is important that we conduct it rightfully… We want a right observation of the feast - this involves getting rid of leaven, and taking unleavened bread. At Passover they made sure of this. Get rid of Leaven. Leaven speaks of sin or error. We have need for judgment… • For testing of self. • For examination of our walk. There’s a call here, for removing… • Malice • Wickedness Cleanse your heart from… • Worldliness and • Disobedience. It’s needful that we address Sin… Here’s a quote: “No sin is small - it is against an infinite God and may have consequences immeasurable. “No grain of sand is small in the mechanism of a watch.” - So said Hudson Taylor. A little leaven can do much harm. This challenge prompts us… • To faithfulness • To resolve • To devotion There’s need for examination - of the self. Is there leaven in my life? In this gathering? Malice, or Wickedness. Let it be removed. Today. The best way to get rid of sin… is to be open to the Lord. It is said, that “Whenever a man is ready to uncover his sins God is always ready to cover them with His blood.” So Keep the feast, it says. Get rid of the leaven. And, also, we need… Unleavened Bread We are an unleavened loaf. It is a picture of Christian fellowship Of the unity of the church Of the purity of the church. • Be pure and truthful. • Partake with sincerity of heart. The Unleavened Bread is also a type - a picture… That represents… • the sinless body of Christ • the finished work of Christ for us. Partake of Christ, by fa ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OXWZmFdAdSo
