The Church of God stated the purpose of the event, “We hold blood drives to commemorate the sacred birth of God Ahnsahnghong who came to the earth a second time and to save lives in critical condition due to blood shortage, following the example of the love of God who gives eternal life to mankind through the New Covenant Passover,” and added, “We want to alert people to a trend to make light of human life and to lead the world to share the love of God.”

In the case of overseas churches, about 2,200 Churches of God in 170 countries in North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Oceania and Africa where the Church of God is established, will perform it. The Church said, “It will continue until April 5th on which the 2012 Passover Assembly is held.”
The Church of God will provide its church buildings which are located in important places worldwide as temporary places for blood donation. In some regions, the members will visit a blood center, a blood donation center of the Red Cross or a university hospital to donate blood. The members of the Church of God will not only take part in the blood donation but also inform the importance of blood donation by conducting a blood donation campaign extensively and leading their neighbors to participate in it, too.

Following the teachings of Jesus Christ, the Church of God keeps the Passover by eating bread and drinking wine in the evening of the 14th day of the first month in the sacred calendar every year. As its name imparts, the Church says that disasters pass over those who keep the Passover. It originated from the Exodus when the Israelites were protected from the disaster by putting the blood of the lamb on the sides and tops of the door frames of their houses.

The Passover is God's feast that has meaning, "diasters pass over."
Jusus kept the Passover with His disciples and promised the forgiveness of sins and eternal life.
Come to keep the Passover

and the only solution to escape the great disaster.

world mission society church of God "Loving thy neighbors by cleaning up"
Loving thy neighbors by cleaning up their waste
Volunteers with Charlotte church go layers deep into litter at West Boulevard and Remount Road
A darkened storefront on West Boulevard tells passersby it’s “All About Labor.”
Out back, the words have been brought to life.
Here on Sunday morning, just east of Remount Road, volunteers from the World Mission Society Church of God attacked an acre of brush and woods that can be best described as three parts active landfill and one part outdoor toilet.
Generations of drinkers and drug users have left a legacy of trash. The ground clinks with it. The air is rife with it. Several groups have taken one glimpse, one whiff and decided their community-service efforts were better directed elsewhere.
Working with the city of Charlotte, the World Society Church of God delegation waded right in. Working in blue T-shirts and vests, they filled hundreds of trash bags and hauled away everything from animal carcasses to refrigerator doors. The more they carted out, the more they found.
“I knew it was going to be bad, but we all hoped it would be better than this,” said church volunteer James Lindsay, hacking at the overgrowth with a machete.
“It’s sad to see people treat the earth this way,” said Allison Danley, a church member from north Charlotte. “This is disrespecting God.”
The Tyvola Road congregation took on the cleanup as part of a worldwide effort by its church. The 2,200 branches of the World Mission Society are performing community service to prepare themselves for the celebration of Passover on April 5.
Jack Kim, the Charlotte church’s missionary and coordinator of the event, said the morning offered members a chance for environmental awareness, “to cleanse our own souls,” and to love thy neighbor.
In this case, some of those neighbors aren’t much for litter laws and personal hygiene.
“There are more politically corrects terms we could use, but we’re talking about homeless vagrants and crackheads, and they are out here every day,” said Chris Lyon, a Charlotte-Mecklenburg police officer assigned to the area.
The cleanup started at 9 a.m. About 70 volunteers showed up with 100 trash bags. At 9:30, they went out and bought 200 more.
By that time, 80-year-old David Moryas had seen the work on a TV newscast and driven over to help. Machete in one hand, the native of Kenya pointed at the nearby businesses.
“The shop owners should be participating,” he said, “so they can know what’s going on in their neighborhood, what their customers have done.”
At the nearby Jeman Express convenience store, Kay Aho was opening up.
Does the area have a problem with loiterers? “Ha, this is West Boulevard,” he said.
Asked if he knew what the church volunteers were doing, he retreated. “I work up here. I don’t know what goes on back there.”
Back there, two messages have been painted on the cinder block. No loitering. No p---ing. Based on available evidence, both have been ignored.
Lyon, who worked alongside the church volunteers, said police make arrests in the woods almost every day. The department and the city have also begun the legal process to get the owner of the vacant property to take more responsibility.
He looked around at the volunteers. “The church is great,” he said.
Nearby, a small mountain of filled trash bags had begun to emerge near West Boulevard. And still more came. Mattresses, furniture, tires and hundreds upon hundreds of bottles and cans. Lindsay tossed something heavy over a fence onto the back parking lot – the gas tank of a car.
Later in the morning, Vickie McClain sat on a rock to catch her breath.
“I’m from Charlotte, and I know West Boulevard. But I had no idea what was in those bushes,” she said. “Look at some of those bottles. They’ve got to be 30 years old.”
McClain looked at her watch: 11 a.m. An hour of work to go. She grabbed her bag and a picker, and headed back into the brush.

Christ Ahnsahngong, Who Restored the Passover of the New Covenant
Christ Ahnsahngong, Who Restored the Passover of the New Covenant
The Passover was abolished at the Council of Nicaea in A.D. 325. At that time, the Passover completely disappeared from the world. Who on earth can have eternal life as the truth of life was abolished? Therefore, Jesus said that He would come a second time to restore the Passover.
Heb. 9:28 『. . . so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.』
Ahnsahnghong restored the Passover of the new covenant that had been abolished by Satan. Then, who do you think Ahnsahnghong is?
Isa. 25:6-9 『On this mountain the LORD Almighty will prepare a feast of rich food for all peoples, a banquet of aged wine—the best of meats and the finest of wines. On this mountain he will destroy the shroud that enfolds all peoples, the sheet that covers all nations; he will swallow up death forever. The Sovereign LORD will wipe away the tears from all faces; he will remove the disgrace of his people from all the earth. The LORD has spoken. In that day they will say, “Surely this is our God; we trusted in him, and he saved us. This is the LORD, we trusted in him; let us rejoice and be glad in his salvation.”』
Ahnsahnghong, who restored the Passover of the new covenant, is the Second Coming Christ—God—who appeared in accordance with all of the prophecies of the Bible. The saints of the Early Church had cherished and celebrated the Passover of the new covenant! Christ Ahnsahnghong came in the flesh and restored the Passover so that we may be saved from the impending plagues. The Passover of the new covenant is the very gospel of Christ.

Christ Ahnsahnghong came in the flesh and restored the Passover so that we may be saved from the impending plagues. The Passover of the new covenant is the very gospel of Christ.
The Last Plagues and the Passover
It is only through the Passover that we can be saved from God’s last plagues.
Matt. 24:37-39 『”As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.”』
1 Thess. 5:1-3 『Now, brothers, about times and dates we do not need to write to you, for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.』
The most urgent thing now is for us to listen to the news of salvation. Let’s study the verses in the Bible that show us how we can escape the last disaster. The earth will surely meet its doomsday, either by a world war or by God’s mighty power. There are many prophecies in the Bible concerning the end of the age. Whoever absolutely believes and follows the prophecies will be saved.
If anyone does not believe the message of salvation, he cannot obtain eternal life, even though he may try to seek salvation by his own means (such as making an underground shelter, going to another planet by rocket, fleeing to a peaceful country, or hiding himself within an atomic submarine under a North Pole iceberg). These are merely temporary methods to hide from danger. In regard to this, some prophets prophesied as follows:
Zeph. 1:18 『Neither their silver nor their gold will be able to save them on the day of the LORD’s wrath.』
Amos 9:2-4 『”Though they dig down to the depths of the grave, from there my hand will take them. Though they climb up to the heavens, from there I will bring them down. Though they hide themselves on the top of Carmel, there I will hunt them down and seize them. Though they hide from me at the bottom of the sea, there I will command the serpent to bite them. Though they are driven into exile by their enemies, there I will command the sword to slay them. I will fix my eyes upon them for evil and not for good.”』
Now, the time has come to study and to follow the way of salvation, according to God’s guidance, displayed in the prophecies of the Bible, instead of seeking man’s ways. In order to give salvation to those who believe in the prophecies, God has allowed the history of ancient times as a shadow, revealing what will happen in the end of the age.
Ex. 12:12-14 『”On that same night I will pass through Egypt and strike down every firstborn―both men and animals―and I will bring judgment on all the gods of Egypt. I am the LORD. The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are; and when I see the blood, I will pass over you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt. This is a day you are to commemorate; for the generations to come you shall celebrate it as a festival to the LORD―a lasting ordinance.”』
In Hebrews 11:28, it is written, “By faith he kept the Passover and the sprinkling of blood, so that the destroyer of the firstborn would not touch the firstborn of Israel.” This means that no destructive plague was brought upon the houses where the blood of the Passover lamb had been sprinkled, because it became a sign.
God’s last plagues will be brought upon this sinful world. At that moment, who on earth can escape? Can’t the people who have the blood of Jesus, who have celebrated the Passover, escape? The power of the Passover will be revealed when the last plagues are brought upon the earth. Those who have not celebrated the Passover will regret it, and they will face God’s wrath and punishment.
Matt. 24:37-39 『”As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.

Being Freed From Sin Through the Passover
In order to go back to the kingdom of heaven, lost because of our sins, we must first be forgiven for our sins. The Passover is the truth of God, through which we can have the forgiveness of our sins and can enter the kingdom of heaven.
Luke 4: 17-21 『The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. . . “He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind. . . “. . . and he began by saying to them, “Today this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.”』
Some may ask who men are captive to. Jesus freed His people from their sins and from the devil’s power through His precious blood, the blood of the Passover Lamb.
Rom 6:22 『But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves to God, the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life.』
The history of the Israelites—who entered the desert after being emancipated from Egypt, through the blood of the Passover lamb—reveals that in the New Testament times, the people who eat the flesh of Jesus, the Passover lamb, and drink His blood will enter the spiritual desert, after being freed from their sins (1 Cor. 10:1-12).

God Promised to Give Us Eternal Life through the Passover
God Promised to Give Us Eternal Life through the Passover
All men desire to have eternal life, but men cannot give it. Just as God saved the Israelites during the Exodus, only God is able to give us salvation and eternal life.
1 John 5: 20 『We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true—even in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.』
Then, how will God grant us eternal life? God gives us salvation through the blood of Christ (1 Cor. 5:7), represented, during the time of the Exodus, by the blood of the Passover lamb.
John 6:53-55 『Jesus said to them, “I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink.”』
Jesus promised that the bread of the Passover was His flesh, and that the wine of the Passover was His blood.
Matt. 26:17-28 『. . . So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them and prepared the Passover . . . While they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take and eat; this is my body.” Then he took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.”』
The reason why we want to receive the flesh and blood of Jesus given to us through the Passover is because Jesus, who is life, promised that when we eat His flesh and drink His blood, we will live forever.
Since Jesus said, “unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you” (John 6:53), how can we receive eternal life unless we celebrate the Passover?
Jesus called the Passover the new covenant.
Luke 22:7-20 『Then came the day of Unleavened Bread on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed . . . When the hour came, Jesus and his apostles reclined at the table. And he said to them, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.”. . . And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.” In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.”』

The Origin of the Passover
God chose Moses and used him to bring about the emancipation of the Israelites, who had groaned under their Egyptian slavery for 430 years.
When Moses was eighty years old, God commanded him to ask Pharaoh to let the Israelites go; however, Pharaoh refused and he became even more rebellious against God, afflicting the Israelites more severely. God was enraged and brought plagues upon the whole land of Egypt: the plagues of blood, of frogs, of flies…of darkness. The heart of Pharaoh became more hardened and he stubbornly refused to let the Israelites go. God allowed Pharaoh’s heart to become hardened so that He could judge Egypt.
Through the tenth plague, God decided to kill every firstborn of Egypt both men and animals and appointed the fourteenth day of the first month, by sacred year. God didn’t want the firstborn of the Israelites to die along with the firstborn of the Egyptians, so He ordered the Israelites to put the blood of a year-old lamb on their doorframes and housetops.
Ex. 12:1-14 『. . . “The animals you choose must be year-old males without defect . . . Take care of them until the fourteenth day of the month, when all the people of the community of Israel must slaughter them at twilight . . . This is how you are to eat it: with your cloak tucked into your belt, your sandals on your feet and your staff in your hand. Eat it in haste; it is the LORD’s Passover . . . The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are; and when I see the blood, I will pass over you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt. This is a day you are to commemorate; for the generations to come you shall celebrate it as a festival to the LORD—a lasting ordinance.”』
The blood of the lamb became the sign of God’s people, and the destroying angels passed over the Israelites’ houses, where the blood had been painted. This day was called the Passover, meaning that the disaster would “pass over.”
On that day, the Israelites put the lamb’s blood on their doorframes, ate its roasted meat, and prepared to go on a journey. That night, as the Israelites waited, loud wailing could be heard. All of the firstborn of Egypt including the firstborn of Pharaoh were killed. During the night, Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and told them to leave Egypt. The Egyptians, who had suffered all kinds of plagues, wanted the Israelites to leave quickly and gave them articles of silver and gold, even clothing.
The Passover was the day when God freed the Israelites from the slavery of Egypt. This was a shadow of the things to come. In the New Testament times, the Passover is the only feast through which God’s people can receive the forgiveness of their sins and can be saved from all disasters.

PASSOVER - world mission society church of god
What is the PASSOVER ??
world mission society church of god
When Christians are asked, “Have you received salvation?” they reply, “Yes,” but if they are asked, “Do you celebrate the Passover?” most of them will hesitate in answering. Actually, no one can be said to be “saved” without knowing about the Passover.
The Church of God is the only church in the world that celebrates the Passover of the new covenant on the fourteenth day of the first month by sacred year as was written in the Bible (Lev. 23:4). The Church of God can celebrate the Passover because the Second Coming Christ, Ahnsahnghong, has restored the Passover that Jesus established two thousand years ago.
The Passover is one of the most important feasts that God has granted because God promised to give us the forgiveness of our sins and eternal life through the Passover.
Also, by celebrating the Passover, we can escape from all disasters. Even in the Old Testament times, there was a marked difference between the people who celebrated the Passover and the people who did not. Those who did not celebrate the Passover were always destroyed.
In other words, if we do not celebrate the Passover, we cannot have the forgiveness of our sins or eternal life, nor can we be saved from the last disasters. The Church of God, that believes in the prophecies of the Bible, celebrates the Passover the truth of the Early Church, following the teachings of Christ Ahnsahnghong.
