Remember

Exodus 12
14 “This is a day to remember. Each year, from generation to generation, you must celebrate it as a special festival to the Lord.”

God is giving instructions for the Passover Meal. On that first Passover, the firstborn of the children of Israel were spared from the angel of death, who killed the firstborn of all the Egyptians, their animals, etc. As Christians, we know Jesus as our Passover Lamb. His Blood was shed to protect us from spiritual death (separation from God). The Firstborn of all Creation was sacrificed so that we could have eternal life. When Jesus instituted the Lord’s Supper, he told us to do this in remembrance of Him. Each week, we do so. May we never be guilty of forgetting Who Jesus is, and what He has done (and is doing) for those who follow Him.
