Brothers and Sisters, our Lord Jesus has taught us that He came to bring life and salvation. On this table, Jesus gives us life. At this table, Jesus makes the antithesis clear: Bread and Wine for my people only. This table marks the difference between the New Israel and Old Egypt. Jesus says this table is for those who are marked by baptism and for those who have made Yahweh glad. As Proverbs teaches, “A wise son makes glad His father.” So, come and eat for your Heavenly Father is pleased with you.
