The ordinance of the Lord’s supper is a call for all Christians to remind themselves of the true cost of salvation and to live in the light of the blessed hope of the Rapture of the Church

The Lord’s Supper is a time of self-examination of our walk with the Lord in the light of what it took for Jesus to provide our salvation for us. What is the gospel of our salvation? It is the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ on the third day according to the scripture. The shedding of God’s own blood to pay our sin debt. It is also connected to the Pretribulation Rapture of the Church!

“For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come.” 1 Corinthians 11:26 (KJB)

Paul says that when we observe the ordinance of the Lord’s supper, we are reminding ourselves of 1). The true cost of our salvation, and 2). The Return of Jesus at the Rapture of the Church. John says that this ‘blessed hope’ is a purifying hope. So what then is the real reason for remembering the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus? To keep ourselves on a short leash with the Lord.

YOU ARE INVITED to come worship with us each Sunday morning starting at 10 AM at Bethany Baptist Church in Saint Augustine, Florida
