The Devotion of the Church - Part 4: Communion

Series: The Dawn of the Church: Acts 1-2

Category: Gospel, The Church

Speaker: Jason Williams

In this sermon, we continued The Dawn of the Church sermon series by looking at the early Church's devotion to Communion. In Mark 14, Jesus reveals the full meaning of the Passover meal to His disciples and transitions the Passover meal into the Communion meal we practice today. In the Passover meal, we see that the promises of Exodus 6:6-7 are fulfilled in Jesus. As we take Communion together, we remember and celebrate everything the Passover meal symbolized: Only Jesus can rescue us from our burdens and our slavery to sin. Through His death and resurrection, we are redeemed from sin and death and adopted into His family as the people of God.
