Our Ultimate Passover Lamb: Jesus Met All the Requirements

By William Mashao

This book serves to emphasize that Lord Jesus remains our Passover
Lamb. He ultimately meets all the requirements of the Lamb in the Old
Testament. Jesus remains the only reason for salvation. His crucifixion was
the tool for the remission of our sins, and this was God's eternal plan of
redemption for humanity. Jesus is our ultimate Passover Lamb, and His life
is a proof enough to us that He was a Selected Lamb and came to the earth
to serve a purpose of bringing redemption to the all human race and both
His suffering and victory is a symbol of a sacrificial Lamb and was gentle,
blemishless, and pure yet sacrificed. Jesus, our Passover Lamb, was
sacrificed for us to have the executive privilege of becoming the Sons or
rightful Heirs in the Kingdom of God. He is the very template and a pattern
to God the Father, His Suffering and Death was not only for us to attain
salvation however it was for us to become the exact representation of who
He is here on the Earth. All this activity was celebrated during the Feast of
Passover. The feasts in the bible begin with the Feast of Passover, two
weeks before the Exodus. Passover is celebrated in the first month of the
year. This feast is called the “feast of freedom” because it celebrates the
deliverance of the Israelite from bondage in Egypt and memorizes when the
blood of the Lamb protected those who were obedient to the Lord. The first
Passover in Exodus 12 was the actual day of deliverance from the wicked
system of Egypt. The Hebrew word Pesach, for Passover, means passed
over” the houses of Israel when He brought judgment against the Egyptians.
Other Passover celebration is the celebration of that great day of the
deliverance of the first Passover

William Mashao has a unique and powerful ministry in the body of Christ universally, as an apostolic/prophetic teacher and scribe. This handbook is a must-read for everyone in ministry since the profundity in his writing is priceless, practical, profound and insightful. The book is purely Christ-centred, written to bring forth enlightenment, revelation and understanding.

- Prophet Griffith Makuse –

Leading founder of, Walk of Nabi int ministries and traveling prophetic mentoring programme.

Having read the book, I recommend every believer should get a copy as it explains line upon line the historical background of the Feast of Passover and its significance, and it further touches one of the most important subjects or doctrine within the Christendom which is the hypostatic union, so in essence what I am saying is that this book can be used for group teachings and personal development.

-Apostle Varega (Vara) Nchunu-

Leading founder of, El-Bethel Church

William, as an apostolic voice to our generation and a great scribe, has excellently taken us through the origins, history and the present-day meaning of Passover. In this book, he has proved how Christ Jesus fulfilled all the requirements of being a sacrificial lamb to bring atonement and redemption. He further gives us life-changing principles that are to be drawn from the inception and establishment of the Feast of Passover.

In this case study, we find tools that equip not only in presenting the teaching of Passover as a recycled message that has lost its effect, but gives us present-day truth as it relates to the Feast. William has excellently proven that Christ Jesus is not just the Lamb that was sacrificed but as the High Priest gave the sacrifice, he further, prove the Deity of Christ Jesus and how it relates to the Feast of Passover. This book as a breath of fresh air; relevant to our day and it is also an excellent tool to aid in the interpretation and teaching of Scripture, it is with that I recommend and endorse this book.

S'thembiso Mokoena-Gqetywa

I personally think that the ultimate Passover Lamb book is a must-have for all Christians across all Christian camps, the evangelical, Pentecostal and the apostolic, in that it outlays the end and the process of how Christ serves as a qualifying LAMB to redeem humanity in that all the events around his death point to the divine province of God in the old testament in how he sought to preserve humanity for himself, having achieved that forever through Jesus Christ, to us this advocates that Christ is the undeniable providence, supreme and divine, the centre of it all as we see it unfold in the course of his very own natural life.

Rebecca Teffu

It is indeed an honor to witness a gift from the infancy and see it grow to maturity to impact the world. William M Mashao is not afraid to challenge some schools of thought on certain issues that would give you a broader perspective in certain schools of thought. This book can be used as a study material as it has repetition of scriptures and headings to drive the point home and establish a profound doctrine. If one needs a summary of the Bible, the background and history of Bible events, the distinction between the old and the new testaments and the correlation of the two testaments in the light of Who Christ Jesus, The Lamb of God is, then this book is a must have. Our Ultimate Passover Lamb is the true essence of Christianity to redirect the distorted message of the cross in the dying world.

Foreword

William Mashao is a son in ministry, he has showed his love for the Word of God, and I have witnessed his love for God throughout our journey. The grace of God is evident i his life to communicate the mind of God in our time through his writing and through ministerial work of God. The book Our Ultimate Passover Lamb is Christocentric (Christ Centred) Book, it conveys the attributes in which points Christ as the Ultimate Passover Lamb which was slain for our sins. It records the historical background on the biblical events in the old testament and how the events link with the new testament in bringing the evidence that Jesus is the Ultimate Passover Lamb.

In the Old Testament the events regarding the Passover are recorded in the book of Exodus, which is one of the five Torah books written by Moses the prophet, the book of Exodus is the proof that the Old Testament books centrality is not on the Law but rather it reflect God who fulfil His promises, Who is Gracious  and loving towards His children (as the Passover was introduced in Exodus 13 before the Mosaic Law commenced), this was seen when Israelites were kept in captive in Egypt by Pharaoh the ruler of Egypt, then God appointed Moses to Perform the 10 Plagues in Egypt which Death of the First born sons of any household that did apply the blood of the Lamb on the two door-posts, and on the lintel was the last and the tenth plague which was ultimatum for Pharaoh to release the Israelite from Captive, the Lamb was without a blemish, a male of a year old and was selected by the father of the house hold. All this transpired in the Old testament however in the New Testament we see Christ fulfilling the same promises as He was selected by God the Father and He remain without a sin yet He died for our Sins He became our Kinsmen redeemer and the Saviour of the World. He ultimately met all the requirement of becoming our Ultimate Passover Lamb and redeem mankind from the Original Sin Committed by first man Adam. Christ also restored the image that man lost after the fall, Christ is the templet, the pattern and the prototype in which mankind need to observe
