What’s up with yeast?
Throughout the Bible God’s children are directed to make unleavened bread, in fact yeast is often associated with sin, which if allowed to go unchecked can ruin a congregation or community. There are other instances where the use of yeast is encouraged and Jesus compares yeast to the Kingdom of heaven in one parable. To fully understand yeast as it relates to us as Christians, read the following scriptures and any others you may find to get the whole story. Lev 7:13, Mt 13:33; 16:6, Mk 8:15 & 1Cor 5: 7-9

THE PERFECT MADE PERFECT
Heb.5:9 says, "having been made perfect, he became to all who obey Him, the source of eternal salvation." How can our Messiah Jesus be made perfect, if He is already perfect (without sin)? The Greek word for perfect, here means complete, as in completing a mission. On the cross, when He said, "It is finished" that is when the mission was complete (perfected). If you want to be perfect and complete, then you will find it at the cross.
To go to the cross, means to die to self, let go of human priorities, and by losing your life, you will find it. If Messiah who was perfect, had to become perfect through suffering on the cross, how much more do we have to become perfect, who are not perfect. So don't fear the cross, don't fear the hard times, and don't fear dying to self. Because in the cross, even the perfect, and much more the imperfect, find perfection (completeness).
