Brothers and sisters, God is among us as we eat and drink with His beloved Son. The gospel was heard and now the gospel is eaten and drunk! Herein is truth, that Christ has provided eternal food and drink for his people so they may never hunger or thirst. We, who have already fallen on our faces before God and worship Him now feast with Him. We who have died with Christ have also been raised with Him. So this meal is for the church, but it is a prophetic meal to the world also. When we eat we say to the unbelieving world that only here can you find the Christ who satisfies your hunger and when we drink we say that only here can you find the Christ who satisfies your thirst. So let us eat and drink for our sakes and for the sake of the world. Amen.
