Do This in Remembrance of Me
I. THE LORD’S SUPPER IS DEEPLY MEANINGFUL
A. The Passover – the meaning of the old memorial
1. The Passover looked back to deliverance from Egypt by the sacrifice of a lamb
2.The Passover looked forward to deliverance from sin by the sacrifice of the Lamb of God (John 1:29)
B. The Lord’s Supper – the meaning of the new memorial
1. The Lord’s Supper looks back to the death of Christ
2. The Lord’s Supper looks forward to the second coming of Christ (I Corinthians 11:26)
II. THE LORD’S SUPPER IS DEEPLY PERSONAL
A. The bread represents “My body which is given for you”
B. The cup represents “My blood which is shed for you”
“Do this is remembrance of Me”
