Texts: Exodus 12:1-14; Matthew 26:26-29
Communion Foreshadowed in the Passover (Exodus 12:1-14)
- Communion’s roots can be traced back to Passover, where the Israelites were saved from death and delivered from slavery in Egypt.
- The Israelites marked their doorframes with the blood of the lamb and God “passed over” His people.
- The feast of Passover is a celebration of this event.
Communion Fulfilled in Jesus (Matthew 26:26-29)
- Communion is demonstrated in the bread (Christ’s body being broken) and the cup (Christ’s blood being poured out).
- These symbols portray the sacrifice of Christ on the cross for our sins.
