Born Again, What Now | Episode 7 | Breaking of Bread
from Duane Sheriff Ministries - Messages · host Duane Sheriff
"God never willed for me to get saved and stuck." Many believers receive Christ, miss a devil's hell, and yet never discover the spiritual nourishment and maturity God intended for them. One of the often-overlooked keys to spiritual growth is found in the third spiritual food group revealed in Acts 2:42: the breaking of bread.In Episode 7 of "Born Again, What Now?", Duane Sheriff teaches the profound significance of communion and why the breaking of bread was central to the life of the early church. Drawing from Acts 2, 1 Corinthians 11, and the biblical pattern of the Passover meal, he explains that communion is far more than a religious ritual. It is a powerful reminder of Christ's life, labor, and love, and serves as both a covenant meal and a witness to the world of Christ's death and coming return.The symbolism of Jesus as our Passover Lamb points to Christ's complete provision, reminding us that His sacrifice secured far more than forgiveness alone. When we break bread, whether in corporate worship or intimate fellowship, we declare to the world that God is real and Jesus is returning. Duane also explores Paul's warning in 1 Corinthians 11 that many remain weak and sick because they fail to discern the Lord's body—both Christ's sacrifice and the church as His body—revealing how communion calls believers into deeper fellowship, greater spiritual awareness, and a fuller understanding of their covenant relationship with Christ.
