1st Day of Unleavened Bread Sermon for 2018: Leaven and Sin


Unleavened Bread

The Continuing Church of God is pleased to announce this sermon from its ContinuingCOGchannel, which is intended to be watched on the first day of unleavened bread (which is March 31, in 2018):

What is leaven? What, according to the Bible, is sin? Did Jesus indicate that leaven was like sin? What are some of the similarities between leaven and sin? Are the Days of Unleavened Bread just some practice of the ancient Hebrews or were they also enjoined upon God’s people in the New Testament? Did early Christians keep the Days of Unleavened Bread? Should you avoid leaven and eat unleavened bread on each of the seven days of unleavened bread? What can you do to help put sin out of your life?
