The Guaranty

"And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these sayings, He said unto His disciples, Ye know that after two days is the feast of the Passover, and the son of man is betrayed to be crucified. Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called Ciaphas, and consulted that they might take Jesus by subtlety and kill him. But they said, not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar of the people." (Matthew 26:1-5)

Every year, like scenes at a living history museum, the Passover represented Christ's death and He understood the prophesies that were hidden in the Biblical ordinances. Not only did He live His own life based on them, but taught His disciples to live by them too.

The chief priests, scribes and elders comprised the government. They were a numerous, powerful and august group. They pit themselves against Christ and the Bible prophesies and believed they could prevent Christ's death on the Passover. They forgot one thing. God's word is 100 percent guaranteed.
