I’m Rev Jay Stuart Glover and you are listening to Faith Talk. On the first Sunday of the month many Baptist Congregations are having a Communion Service. Today I would like to share a bit about the communion service through the lens of the Baptist tradition.
There are two biblical ordinances observed in the Baptist Tradition:
Baptism and The Lord’s Supper.
To add some context right here let me say this:
Jesus gathered his disciples together to partake of the Passover Meal. This historical event prior to the arrest of Jesus, has come to be known to us as the “Last Supper.” The theological parallels between the celebration of the Passover and the modern day Communion service are profound. Together they both speak to themes of liberation and redemption throughout the biblical narrative.
Thank you for joining our global listening audience. Today I’d like to send a special shout out to listeners in Germany and India.
