An ordinance is a Christian experience with physical elements (water; bread and cup), that is celebrated when the church of Jesus comes together. This word is closely associated with the term sacrament, which is an outward and visible sign of an inward and invisible grace. Join us at 9 a.m. this Sunday 10/30 as we meditate on Jesus and the significance of His table, followed by an invitation to participate in the ordinance of communion together.
As we discovered last week, receiving God’s grace and forgiveness through faith in Jesus leads to a fresh start in a whole new life. Yet, this is just the beginning. After we believe in Jesus, he extends a new invitation, “Abide in me.” To abide means to live in a close continual dependent relationship with our resurrected Christ through the presence of his Holy Spirit who indwells all who put their faith in him. In this message we discover more about this beautiful way of life as well as the rewards for all who rsvp with a “yes” to this incredible invitation.
