Read John 13:1-17
“Over the years, I learned that each part of the evening focuses on a particular phase of God’s ministry in our lives.
The bread and the cup commemorate the past act of Jesus’ shed blood and his body given for the forgiveness of our sins once and for all.
The footwashing focuses on the present and daily need for cleansing from sin ().
Jesus told Peter, ‘a person who has had a bath needs only to wash his feet’ ().
Finally, the future is symbolised in the agape as a precursor to the wedding supper of the Lamb ().
Jesus gives the meal this futuristic emphasis when he states ‘I will not eat it again until it finds fulfilment in the kingdom of God’ ().” -Tom Barlow

Reminds us that we are washed clean from our sin; Christ shed his blood that we may have access to the presence of God!
We are promised in “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
We are given a principle in (ESV) “Whoever conceals his transgressions will not prosper but he who confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy.”
It is the Lord’s desire that we be cleansed, Jesus said, (ESV) “I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance.”

Take this as an opportunity to reflect on that last meal Jesus had with his disciples.
We are looking ahead to the wedding supper of the Lamb () At the beginning of the service, I read from .
In verse 16, Jesus says, “For I tell you I will not eat it until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.”().
16 For I tell you I will not eat it until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.”
He will return; “And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.”
And our God is a God who keeps his promises.

3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.
25 But Jesus called them to him and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.
26 It shall not be so among you.
But whoever would be great among you must be your servant, 27 and whoever would be first among you must be your slave, 28 even as the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
