Holy Communion

Tomorrow is the first Sunday of the month, our time to observe Holy Communion. Sometimes I approach this sacred time in a clearly non-biblical way. I rush in, with no forethought, no preparation. Not this time.

I am thinking tonight about what Christ accomplished on the cross. How much eternal good was accomplished in six hours on one Friday so long ago?

Count Nikolaus Ludwig Von Zinzendorf said, “For all at once, all sin is atoned for on the Cross, the entire Fall is erased, and the whole obligation to Satan and the entire sentence passed upon the fall of Adam is torn up, cancelled, and annulled by the nails of Jesus.”

How much has He done for me and what should be my response?
