Why The Lord's Supper Is So Vital

The Lord's Supper is a vital covenantal act instituted by Christ during the Passover meal, transforming the Old Testament memorial of Israel's deliverance into a sacred remembrance of His sacrificial death for the sins of His people. Regular reverent participation in the Supper is the response to Christ's love and a safeguard against spiritual complacency. Grace lies not in the elements themselves, but in the living Christ whom they signify.
