Happy Easter and Passover. Both Holy Days celebrate the same thing, on different planes. The angel of death “passed over” those Hebrew households with the lambs’ blood on their doorposts. Those so protected stayed alive while the unprotected were killed.

Easter commemorates the lifting of a death sentence on all those within the Kingdom of God. Eternal death “passes over” those who die in a state of Grace, just as it did for Christ.

Unfortunately, many do not use their time on earth to grow closer to The Programmer. Just as many “good” people died because their houses were not marked with lambs’ blood, so many “good” people will not go to Heaven because they did not endeavor to be in a state of grace at the end.

Our job is to do what we can to explain this. Many, who would otherwise be lost, can appreciate God once they understand Him as having the ability to program everything in creation and make all things work together for good.
