Why is the Passover significant in Christianity?

Answered in 1 source

The Passover represents the blood of Christ that protects believers from death and judgment.

The Passover is highly significant as it marks the historical event where the Israelites were spared from the death of the firstborn in Egypt through the application of the blood of the lamb on their doorposts. This act is a foreshadowing of Jesus Christ, our Passover Lamb, whose sacrificial death spares believers from eternal judgment (Exodus 12:12-13). The emphasis is on God's promise that He will 'pass over' those marked by the blood, showing that salvation is solely based on God's grace through faith in Christ’s atoning work, not on our merit or efforts (1 Corinthians 5:7).
