For his sermon on the last day of unleavened bread Mr. Smith focuses on God's last day of unleavened bred command to Israel in Exodus 14:15 to "go forward." Israel crossed the Red Sea that day but later when God gave them the command to go forward into the promised land they would not obey. Mr. Smith then shows us New Testament instructions in the sermon on the mount and in II Peter 1 that show us steps to take in going forward to our goal of the kingdom of God.
