The Passover is the core truth of the [[New Covenant|new covenant]] which God established to save all humanity. On the evening of the 14th day of the first month by the sacred calendar, [[Jesus Christ]] established the new covenant by keeping the Passover with His disciples with bread and wine representing His flesh and blood. Just as in the times of the Old Testament, when the Israelites were freed from Egypt by keeping the Passover and entered the land of Canaan, in the times of the New Testament, God's people are given eternal life and freed from the sinful world by keeping the [[The New Covenant Passover|Passover of the new covenant]], and enter the [[Heaven|kingdom of heaven]].
