I had in my mind that, that was what that was about, (second resurrection group keeping the Passover, spiritually), but never knew about the verses you sent in Numbers 9:6-11. Putting it all together with the polluted vessels clears up a lot for me. 2 Chron 30;13 says.... a very great congregation, (implying the second resurrection). As always I really appreciate your time, (laying down your life for me). R____
Wow! I had never noticed the fact that that passover in 2 Chronicles was in the second month! Look at this verse: 2Ch 30:3 For they could not keep it at that time, because the priests had not sanctified themselves sufficiently, neither had the people gathered themselves together to Jerusalem. The priests had not sanctified themselves... neither had the people gathered themselves to Jerusalem. When you know who is Jerusalem you know that this is a confirmation of this verse: Rev 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee. [Jerusalem- Rev.3:12] Rev 3:12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, [which is] new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and [I will write upon him] my new name. You are laying down your life for me, too, Rick, and I really do appreciate it. Mike
