Communion

In Luke 22:1–38, Jesus shares the Last Supper with his disciples, establishes the new covenant through his blood, predicts Peter’s denial, and teaches what true leadership looks like. Discover how Christ calls his followers away from recognition and control toward humble, faithful service.

Far too many Christians today are all about wanting the awe. They just don’t have much interest in the Scripture, fellowship, communion, and prayer part. Today’s passage reminds us that God leads us to awe…through the basic disciplines of the faith. 

The penalty of sin is death, a penalty that Jesus took on himself. “For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed” (1 Corinthians 5:7b). Because of Jesus, eternal death passes over us, and we pass over from physical death to eternal life.
