In the same way, there is a core truth of the Bible on which our salvation pivots on. It is the Passover of the new covenant.
The Passover is a feast appointed by God which contains the blessings of eternal life, forgiveness of our sins, and protection from disasters. We can also come to know the true God through this feast.

Passover: Loving God with All Your Heart, Soul and Mind
