During the days of Unleavened Bread, we are to do self-examinations, not as an act of self-centeredness, but as a work that draws us closer to God by strengthening our relationship. The Days of Unleavened Bread show that we have a fixed time frame and that our time on earth is limited. We are to use that time during our sanctification to eliminate our old traits and get rid of the old sinful man inside of us. There are several arguments against this being a time of self-examination. People wrongly argue that II Corinthians 13:5 only refers to the congregation and that an examination only need be made by the Corinthian church. These scoffers say that the over emphasis on looking at our own lives can lead us down a path of narcissism and putting ourselves instead of God at the center of the narrative. However, the path of redemption fully acknowledges that we cannot do that without God's help; it is to be done along with prayer and reading of the scriptures working with God every step of the way. Since Unleavened Bread represents a fixed time frame, let us work with God closely so we can be of appropriate character to enter His kingdom.
