The Supper of the Lamb

Kenny Benge preached a sermon entitled “The Supper of the Lamb” based on Exodus 12:1-14 on September 3, 2011. Exodus give us the basic pattern of God’s saving activity for all ages.  What place does the Bible give to feasts or meals in the pattern of God’s saving activity?  Meals and feasts are central to God's saving activity, whether as sacramental reminders of who God is, such as the Passover and Psalm 23, Jesus' practice of table fellowship (Luke 15), Jesus' Easter meals with his followers (John 21) and ultimately in the reframing and transformation of Passover by Jesus in the institution of the Lord's Supper.
