What if the Passover table has been telling the story of Jesus all along?
In this quarterly Communion service, Rock Harbor observes the Lord's Supper from its original Hebraic perspective, walking through the ancient Passover elements to reveal Jesus in every symbol. Two candles that picture the two comings of the Messiah. A woman lighting them, echoing the promise of Genesis 3:15. Three matzahs in one linen bag, with only the second one brought out, broken, wrapped in linen, hidden, and found again. Striped and pierced bread that reads like Isaiah 53. An empty chair and a cup waiting for Elijah. Four cups, and a Savior who stopped at the third.
In this message, Pastor Brandon Holthaus explains the meaning behind each element, the warning of 1 Corinthians 11 about taking the Supper in an unworthy manner, the difference between salvation and fellowship pictured in the washing of feet, and why Jesus refuses to drink the fourth cup until we are with Him at the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
The Lord's Supper is not a ritual to rush through on the way out the door. It is the death, burial, and resurrection of the Messiah pictured in bread and cup, proclaimed until He returns. And He is returning soon.
