Just One Sin

Posted on Saturday, August 23, 2014 by Douglas Wilson - 2 comments

We come to the Table in order to be nourished. We need to be nourished and strengthened so that we might have grace in our spiritual limbs when we come to do battle. And when we come to do battle, it should be directed against sin. The author of Hebrews (Heb. 12:4) exhorts his readers …

See Your Neighbor in the Supper

Posted on Saturday, August 16, 2014 by Douglas Wilson - 5 comments

We are here to discern the Lord’s body. We are not here to do metaphysical speculations about what might be happening to the bread and wine on the subatomic level—although we do confess that God ministers to us spiritually with these material elements. We are not here to go spelunking in the deep caverns of …

And We Have Come

Posted on Saturday, August 9, 2014 by Douglas Wilson - 2 comments

What we are doing here involves our minds, but it is not what we would call a mental exercise. It involves our mouths and throats, but it is not just ordinary eating. What we do here engages our hearts, but it is not meal of sentiment. So what are we doing then? The apostle Paul …

Little Plastic Cups

Posted on Saturday, August 2, 2014 by Douglas Wilson

The bread and wine here represent and embody the most precious gift that has ever been given to anyone. You were redeemed, Peter says, not with gold or with silver, but with the precious blood of Jesus Christ (1 Pet. 1:18-19). This is a precious gift indeed. What kind of vessel should this be put …

The Backdrop of Resurrection

Posted on Saturday, June 14, 2014 by Douglas Wilson

This meal commemorates the death of Jesus Christ. This bread represents His body, and this wine represents His blood. This Table is all about the crucifixion. The cross is what we are talking about. The affliction He went through on our behalf is the message. But we have to presuppose the resurrection in order to …

What We Are In For

Posted on Saturday, June 7, 2014 by Douglas Wilson

This is a meal, and so one of the things we do here is taste. “O taste and see that the Lord is good: Blessed is the man that trusteth in him” (Ps. 34:8). As we see in this passage, to taste the Lord is to trust Him. It is to believe Him. This is …

Thanks In, and Thanks For

Posted on Saturday, May 31, 2014 by Douglas Wilson - 1 comment

This is a Eucharistic meal, and that word comes from the Greek word for thanksgiving. This is our weekly thanksgiving meal. Because this meal is offered us by the sovereign Lord over all things, we must not think of it as an oasis of thanksgiving in the midst of a wilderness of grumbles. It is …

The Lord is Your Cup

Posted on Saturday, May 24, 2014 by Douglas Wilson - 1 comment

The message of Psalm 16 is one that speaks clearly of Christ, but also of His people. The New Testament tells us plainly that God’s promise to Christ in the grave was given in this psalm. God would not allow His holy one to see corruption, which is why Christ was in the grave for …

An Unworthy Objection

Posted on Saturday, May 17, 2014Saturday, May 17, 2014 by Douglas Wilson - 1 comment

We are told in Scripture to walk worthy of the calling we have received. We do this by knowing that we are unworthy, and have been made fit to approach God in this fashion by the grace that He offers us in Jesus Christ. We are to walk worthy in the Lord Jesus. If you …

Just Enough

Posted on Saturday, May 10, 2014 by Douglas Wilson

This Table has been set for us by God as a means of grace. The bread and the wine are for us rations of grace. One of the remarkable things about these rations is that they are exactly suited to the difficulties that each one of you will encounter in the coming days. Some of …
