As
we conclude our service of worship, we come to the Communion Table, also known
as the Eucharist. Sometimes protestants
are afraid to call this the Eucharist because that is what the Roman Catholics
call it and we do not believe what they teach about the Eucharist.
But
we do believe in the name – Eucharist is what you will do on Thursday this
week. Eucharist is Thanksgiving and so
Eucharist is what Christians are to participate in all of their days. Thanksgiving to God and to His Christ.
Thanksgiving
is a testimony in a dark world of the Light that has come. This Table is a testimony that this is a
world not moving towards a funeral but rather towards a great Wedding
Feast. And so Thanksgiving also
celebrates all that is coming and is to come.
Come and welcome to Jesus Christ.
