At the last passover celebration with the disciples before His crucifixion, Jesus instituted the Lord's Supper or Communion. This was to be a time for:
1. Reflection - Remembering Christ's broken body and shed blood on the cross.
2. Examination - Carefully humbling ourselves and searching out and confessing all sin and pride.
3. Anticipation - Looking ahead to the promised coming of Jesus Christ.
As we reflect on the death of Christ we remember:
1. Blood Announced - God proclaimed and demonstrated that only blood can cleanse sin and remove judgment.
2. Blood Available - To make blood available there had to be a satisfactory, substitutional, sacrificial death.
3. Blood Applied - Cleansing, comforting, conquering, compelling blood has been made available to all but it must be applied individually by faith.
Walk with the Lord, washed in the blood!!!
