The Message of Purim

3 June, 2024

Listen to Sermon

Speaking about Old Testament events, Paul says in 1 Corinthians 10:11: Now these things befell them by way of a figure [as an example and warning to us]; they were written to admonish and fit us for right action by good instruction, we in whose days the ages have reached their climax (their consummation and concluding period). In other words, what God did in Old Testament times, especially in the Biblical Feasts, prefigured or pointed towards God’s dealings with His sons & daughters, especially for us living in these last days. This message looks at the Feast of Purim which was celebrated this year from sundown on March 6 until sundown on March 7 & at the things that God would use “to admonish and to fit us for right action by good instruction today.
