What does it mean to keep the Passover?

Keeping the Passover involves a deep understanding and acceptance of what the Passover lamb symbolizes—Christ Jesus, our ultimate sacrifice. As seen in Exodus 12, the blood on the doorposts marked families for protection from judgment. Similarly, Christians 'keep the Passover' by acknowledging and resting in the finished work of Christ on the cross. It signifies an active faith that embraces the grace of God and the gift of eternal life. Faith in the Passover fulfillment ensures that believers are forever secured under God's mercy, as evidenced in Hebrews 11:28, where Moses' faith led to obedience in keeping the Passover.
