Reflecting on Communion: The Cups of Judgment and Salvation
Dear Church Family,
We hope you are still reflecting on our recent communion service to the praise of God's name!
Summary:
Our sermon explored Psalm 75, focusing on the themes of judgment and salvation. We delved into how communion helps us recount God's most wondrous deed: saving us from our deserved judgment. The sermon highlighted the contrast between the cup of judgment that we all deserve due to our sin, and the cup of salvation offered through Jesus Christ's sacrifice on our behalf.
Takeaways:
- We all stand guilty before God's righteous judgment, unable to rely on our own merits or strength.
- Jesus Christ drank the cup of God's judgment on our behalf, offering us the cup of salvation instead.
- Communion is a powerful reminder of Christ's sacrifice and our new covenant relationship with God.
As we go about our week, let's continue to reflect on the immense grace we've been shown. May we approach future communion services with renewed reverence and gratitude, never taking for granted the salvation we've been offered.
In Christ's love,
The Elders at NLBC
