Listen Later

This sermon explores the significance of the Lord's Supper as a sacred ordinance given to the church. It emphasizes the importance of observing communion as a unified body of believers, highlighting its role as a remembrance of Christ's sacrifice and a symbol of the church's unity. Pastor Joe Fant explains the biblical basis for the practice, differentiates it from other interpretations, and stresses the importance of participating in a worthy manner within the context of the local church gathering.

Key Points:

  • The Lord's Supper is a replacement for the Old Testament Passover
  • It is a visual representation of the gospel, along with baptism
