It's alright. Pastor Jerry is going to come and give the good word.

That works.

Anything else? It's good to see each one of you this morning. The lord has laid on my heart, a message that they see more. Doctrinal been inspirational, but I hope it's both. You know, we is Baptist. Understand the scripture to tell us that we have two symbols or two ordinances that the Lord has asked us. To do one. We're commanded to do that is to follow him in baptism. Matthew 28, it says, baptized them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, we have been privileged this month to see several baptisms and Patricia. I apologize for hitting your head.

To remember.

Okay, I thought I had it on. Sorry about that. All those people online. Anyway. The Lord's Supper Jesus asked us to do it as often as we wanted to. To remember, his sacrifice for us, is human sacrifice for us on that, terrible Friday. When he hung on that cross. And died for us, we are to remember that. But there's more to it with the Lord's. Supper The Lord's Supper is a foreshadowing of the Messianic banquet in the kingdom of God. Now, my son would say that's nerdville speaking but you needed to hear that because that's going to be a time with a Heavenly fellowship with the Believers from all ages. with Christ, Our Messiah, and God, the Father,

That should have gotten an email me and then we're going to have a banquet, the prophet Isaiah wrote several hundred years before Jesus came. He wrote to prophesy the time when God's people would feast in his presence. He wrote

For here on this mountain, god of the army, angels will throw a feast for all the people of the world of feast of finest Foods. A feast of Vintage Wines, a feast of seven courses, A feast lavish with Gourmet desserts. Ready field. Oh yeah, that's that's that's mine. And here on this mountain, the prophet said God will banish the Pall of Doom hanging over all peoples. The shadow of Doom darkening. All the nation. Yes. He'll banish death forever and God will wipe away the tears. From every face. Do you remove every sign of disgrace from his people, whoever wherever they are? Yes God says so. Wow. Wow, what a prophecy. This bright prophecy. Look forward to an age when people from all people groups and Nations will have fellowship with God. In a festive celebration.

Note that the occasion takes the format of a Middle East. Banquet, some of us went on a mission trip and experienced a Middle East, then quit. I hope we have chairs and tables.

Mankind is made. In the image of God were told. Made to live in a meaningful live relationship with his creator. And since we're made like him, we also are made for celebration. It appears that of all the creatures that God made only mankind. Truly knows how to celebrate. Our God is a party God. Amen. He loves for us to celebrate to celebrate Kim. Not because he needs our celebration. But he knows, we need to celebrate. We need to celebrate what he has done for us. All the way from creation to Salvation.

And that is the best that we can do is celebrate him.

And our celebration of the Lord's. Banquet will be so joyous. And complete that sorrow and death themselves will be banished. You can't have fun with that hanging over your head. And God says, there ain't going to be, what kind of celebrate Will be there be no more. The Lord himself will wipe away our tears and forgive us until all shame and guilt cease to be exist. Man, what a party. the Apostle Paul cut the vision of this, when he wrote to his son, Timothy his son in the Lord. This is now been made evident Through the appearing of Our Savior Jesus Christ, who has abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.

Did you catch that? It's Jesus Christ. Cool polish death by his death. And Graces Life by his resurrection. Paul also wrote to the early Church in Greece. He said death has been swallowed up in Victory. Hold that almost calls for a victory elf. Doesn't it has been swallowed up in Victory? Jesus is Victorious. And we followed Jesus. We are victorious. We're not defeated. We just waiting. Here's the Chloe, promise of Life abundant with God in eternity. It has been anticipated for centuries. and one day, And I hope one day soon.

It'll happen, it'll come. That day will come. We're all called to remember this. When we are for taking in the Lord's Supper not just what he did the agony, what he did but what he's going to do. We can look forward to what he's going to do.

Going to call as soon as party. The Apostle Matthew record, Jesus healing the Roman centurions servant and Jesus was amazed at the soldiers faith. He said to Jesus only say the word and my servant will be healed, you don't have to go just say it. And cheese has commended commented on the officer's face. And said, I tell you that many, like you will come from east and west and recline at the table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the Kingdom of Heaven. Did you catch that? We're going to get to have dinner with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

And Mary the mother of Jesus and Paul, and I've got a lot of questions to ask Paul. It's going to take an eternity for him to answer them all. We're going to get to celebrate with all of the Saints of Glory.

and this verse shows us that Jesus and Vincent envisioned, the international interracial character of the Kingdom,

Have you saw it as a banquet? We're all going to get together. I don't know how the Lord's going to do it. But I believe I'm going to be able to see the end of the table down there at the end of the table down there. And we're going to celebrate with everybody in between if that doesn't put joy and a smile on your face this morning,

Guitar God. That's what he wants for us.

One of the most vivid descriptions of this Kingdom. As a feast is found in the 14th chapter of Luke, we're look recalled with a one of those who reclined at the table, with Jesus heard these things, he said to him, the one who will, Who will eat bread in the kingdom of God is blessed. Then Jesus told e. A man was giving us a large banquet and invited many. At the time of the banquet, he sent his slave to tell those who were invited come, Because everything is now ready? But without exception, they all began to make excuses. The first one said to him, I have a field I bought and I must go and see it. I asked to be excused another set. I just bought five yoke of oxen. Well, wealthy man, and I'm going to try them out, I asked to be excused, another said I just got married and then for up there for them, unable to come. So the slave back and reported these things to the master. Then an anger, the Master of the House total to sleep, go out quickly into the streets, the alleys of the city and bring in all the poor, the maimed, the supply, the lame.

I want that to sink in for just a moment. The master the slave said, what you have ordered has been done with the stillroom? then the master told him go out in the highways in the lanes and make them come in so that my banquet house may be filled for, I tell you not one of those who were invited will enjoy the banquet

Receipt. That the kingdom of God.

And our Thief. Is a thing of great joy. Just think about who's going to be there. Indeed, we can we can say that Joy is the essence of Christianity.

Again, our God is a party God. He loves the party with us. unhappy and joyless Christianity is That's a contradiction in terms, in a contradictions in reality.

Sorry that I have to drink like this. But it's not from colgador. From my son, it's from years of misuse of my voice.

The Aesthetics. Them up out of step in the spirit of Jesus, we're not supposed to be. Downface.

Think about how many times in the gospel, the rider show us the the master, is that a meal? He's at a banquet wedding party.

And he was even Accused by the Pharisees. I'm just hanging out with drunkards and partygoers.

I wish I could have been there cuz I know what Peter did.

That's us. Probably the best well-known saying of Jesus call it the Beatitudes. Actually, each one starts with. Oh, how happy?

now, if you're good King James English, that so blessed but no, no, it means happy you are, how fortunate you are when you're poor spirit and all of those I don't know how many people. Have told me that they wouldn't want to be a Christian. Because you people never have any fun.

How many times does the scripture record God telling his people to remember and to celebrate

The Passover itself is remember. And party for 7 days. Yeah. That's what they did. Nearly all of their festivals lasted 7 days. We got that party for 7 days. Remember remember what God has done for you and the banquet that we're being invited to that. We symbolize when we take the Lord's, Supper is, remember what's going to happen? What you're looking forward to?

There's a party. A banquet coming. Like, no other has ever been a great Festival, like no other

Old people. All people are invited to this party to that, then quit.

The invitation. Does have an RSVP a condition.

You must have a ticket from juice. you must have an invitation a copy of the invitation from Jesus that please don't take that literally what I'm saying is,

We must accept Jesus is invitation by giving our lives to him. By committing ourselves to follow him. By agreeing with him that we can't save ourselves. We can't go to the banquet by ourselves. We have to go with him. It's his invitation, it's his banquet.

As we participate in the Lord's, Supper we are witnessing our commitment to follow Jesus. We remember what he did for us and we say we follow him. A reminder of what he paid for us to receive his invitation to his supper.

At the first supper, Jesus said, but I tell you from this moment, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine until the day, when I drink it in a new way, in my father's house in my father's Kingdom with you.

With you. He said to his followers who were there, by the way, you noticed that the word day is capitalized. That's because it refers to the in time reference of the day of the Lord. The day of the Lord means the day he comes back. When Jesus is coming back. Everybody agree. Jesus is coming back. Yes, he's coming back and he's coming back in power. And then judgment. But he's also coming back with the invitation.

This day of the Lord looks forward. It looks forward to the time when all the redeemed of all the ages will sit down at a table with the Lord in heaven. And what a feast? Oh, what a party. So for all of those who still question of whether we're going to eat and enjoy food, come to the party, come to the banquet. We're not going to be floating around on clouds strumming harps. I don't believe the Lord is that desperate. He doesn't want these strumming, a heart. No, but we're coming to the banquet, we're all on that day. We get to sit at this table.

There are a number of what we called me attitudes in the Book of Revelation. If you haven't seen him, it's a good study. Go through and find them all and read them one speaks of this, heavenly banquet

Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb. Now.

Let's remember. This is the middle. This is from the Middle East. You know, how long? A marriage party lasted.

At least 7 days.

Go through the wedding. Then you start partying. And you party for 7 days. You don't go home. That would be rude. You stay and celebrate.

Got a couple Go off into their thing, but we're still party.

That's that's a good Middle Eastern. When? and blessed, are those of us who are invited to the wedding, not only are we invited to the wedding, where the bride

Where's the prime? He's the groom. As followers of Jesus Christ. We invited now this morning to the Lord's table. To remember, What he's done for us. But it also leads us to look forward to joining the host of the table. The host of both tables. And the heavenly banquet of Our Lord in heaven.

so, come Let us celebrate the Lord's supper and hear these words of invitation come not because you're strong but because you're weak come not because of Any goodness of your own gives you a right to come. Do because you need mercy and help come because you love the Lord a little and you would love to love him even more come. Because he loved you and gave himself for you. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled. Okay, stop and see that God is good. Join me in prayer.

Oh God, our Father back on the table at the side table in the back table or are covid. Type elements. I asked if those of you who are baptized Believers and wish to participate this morning to go get One of those elements from the back to your chair and wait for all of us to take it together.

Okay, the trick to getting out the bread is to push down first, then the little cellophane thing pops up.

Just like that.

Okay, no peel that back. And you have the bread. Think a moment look at it. Yes, it's unleavened. And yes, it's not supposed to taste like anything. K. Because it symbolizes the body of Our Lord. Remember, What he did for you. What his body did for you.

Now, the juice is red like blood. It symbolizes the blood, he spilt. for you, and I

The blood he shed for you.

Remember. And drink it all.

And remember the parties coming and then come to the party.
