Unleavened Bread for Burial

Today's Message: Thanksgiving for Jesus the Messiah | Unleavened Bread for Burial In this week's sermon, Robin Kinstead explores the Feast of Unleavened Bread in Leviticus 23 and its fulfilment in Jesus Christ, connecting Israel’s removal of leaven to the Christian call to holy living. Through Scripture—including 1 Corinthians 5—Robin explains how leaven symbolises sin’s corrupting power and how Jesus, our Passover Lamb, not only died and rose again but was buried so our sin might be buried with Him. He encourages the church to examine their lives, identify the “leaven” that threatens their spiritual health, and pursue sincere, truth-filled discipleship empowered by the Holy Spirit. The message includes pastoral encouragement, reflection on holiness, and an invitation to respond as God’s redeemed people.5 Questions to Think About 1. What is the “one thing” in your life—your personal leaven—that is most dangerous to your spiritual health? 2. How does understanding Jesus’ burial deepen your appreciation of His work in removing and burying your sin? 3. In what ways can pride, bitterness, or hidden sin subtly “leaven” your relationships within the church? 4. What practical steps could you take to create space for God to cultivate sincerity and truth in your daily life? 5. Who can help you walk in holiness—through accountability, prayer, or shared encouragement?3 Things to Take Away 1. Jesus, our Passover Lamb, has not only died for sin but buried it—calling us to bury our sin with Him. 2. A little leaven (sin) affects the whole community; holiness is both an individual and shared responsibility. 3. God provides the Spirit, His Word, and His people to help us continually “spring clean” our lives and grow in sincerity and truth.

Scripture References: Leviticus 23:6-8, 1 Corinthians 5:6-8
