This week, Communion Sunday, Rick teaches from John 1:29: "The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, 'Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!'" In the absence of a sacrificial lamb, all people are subject to destruction. Justice must be served. Christ came as the Sacrificial Lamb and put himself between those who deserve justice and the justified. Christ's blood on the cross redeems the whole of humanity and makes the believers saints. We need to come to the communion table as sinners and as saints.
