Mark 14:22-26 (CSB)
When we partake of Communion and remember Jesus’ body broken and blood shed for us, we must celebrate that this was fulfilled on the cross and that this was promised long ago, all the way back in Genesis 14.
The meal of Melchizedek is the bread and the wine, but it’s so much more. We go beyond the appearances of bread and wine to the reality of the Son of God and His body and blood, soul and divinity. By that one sacrifice, we have confidence. By that one sacrifice, we have forgiveness. By that one sacrifice, we receive power to obey God.
