Communion: Following Christ in Giving Ourselves Up -- Santosh Poonen -- April 20, 2024
Santosh Poonen · Apr 21, 2024
The speaker contrasts the ritual of communion with the ultimate sacrifice of Calvary, emphasizing that Jesus's giving of himself was an invitation for others to draw from his brokenness. He teaches that receiving Christ's life should compel believers not just to be thankful, but to actively take up their own cross and become giving, mirroring Christ's self-emptying nature. The goal is to move beyond mere gratitude to actively becoming like Christ through a willingness to suffer and give.
