Lesson Recap
In Memory Of
God wants us to remember certain events. To see this read Isaiah 46: 8-9a.
Have you ever done something your wished people would forget but they don't? The positive side of that is illustrated in Matt 26: 13.
The Bible records man's effort to recall God's interaction in his life. A few examples are:
- Gen 35: 6-7 Why did Jacob build an alter?
- Ex 17: 13-15 Why did Moses build an alter?
One of the more memorable examples of man constructing something to remember God's activity is found in Joshua 4: 4-7. What do we see God did here? Why did God want a memorial?
Let's look at one more example. This one is found in Luke 22.
In verse 19 what did Jesus tell them/us to do?
How is the Lord's Supper similar to the examples we looked at in the Old Testament? They are similar in the fact that they are used to remind us!
Some teachers would tell us we are never more close to God than when we are in communion with Him by taking communion. This is an act of worship He has directly instructed us to do. Why do you think God wants us to continue observing communion?
Message from Brad Slinkard on Cardinals Tickets
I want to apologize about not being there on May 20th. I was in New York
on May 27th and will be dropping my daughter off at the airport this Sunday on
the 3rd as she goes to Germany, Austria, Switzerland for a class trip. I should
be able to be at church after we drop her off and be able to get the tickets to
those who still need them. I still have plenty left and NEED desperately to get
rid of them so I can pay my Board of Education back the money. Come talk to me
Sunday, I'm going to say I'LL BE THERE at the welcome center to get tickets.
They are in Section 361.
