what we believe concerning the lord's supper
|
The Lord's Supper is an act of obedience whereby believers, through partaking of the bread and the fruit of the vine, memorialize the death of the Redeemer and anticipate His second coming. The Lord's Supper looks back to the finished work of Christ, it looks further to the soon returning Christ, and it looks present to the fellowship one has with Christ and fellow believers.
