Sermon Tone Analysis

Start with the remembrance of communion coming to the Lord's table.

And I have a mic turned off all of a sudden.

No. Okay.

I just got here myself in the monitor.

Okay.

All right so I'm assuming you can hear me cuz I can't hear me but I'm so we are coming and we are remembering the Lord's table if you did not buy the way.

I grabbed one of those, those cops as you came in, please raise your hand and and I sure will we'll make sure that you get one, but as we come, it's a beautiful time of remembering and honestly last week is, we had that that potluck dinner and we all sat down with our plates and in our Dream since and we were fellowshipping, we were talking with one another and and just sharing.

I pause, I sat in a place where I can pause just a little bit.

To listen and listen to some of the conversations.

And it was such a blessing to to hear the church, fellowshipping breaking bread together and in many cases, lifting up our Lord.

That's communion when we come to his table and we Fellowship together and as we do.

So we remember What he has done.

It says, in the night that Jesus was betrayed.

Then he met with his disciples.

He took the bread.

None of them fully understood that night, but all they would come to appreciate it so well.

Something they would do on a regular basis of taking bread and breaking it.

And when Jesus broke the bread, he said this is my body.

Which is broken for you as often as you eat of it.

Remember me?

And he asked a blessing.

So, before we we partake of the bread, let me ask a blessing.

Heavenly Father, we we remember

we remember this morning, the sacrifice that you gave through your son His body broken and beaten.

For our sin.

And God, we thank you for that.

We thank you for that gracious.

Gift that you would bear upon your body.

The consequences of our sin was alarmed as we come this morning to the bread.

We remember.

And we are grateful and we ask your blessing on it in Jesus name, amen.

Shall we partake together?

In another beautiful picture.

Jesus would take the cup.

he said to him then he says this car is the Covenant in my blood which is given for you.

As often as you drink it, do it in remembrance of me.

And as he did that, that night, he has them partake of it.

You and I as we remember his sacrifice, the blood shed on the cross.

We remember what it cost, we enter into that New Covenant.

You know what Jesus said?

I won't drink of this again until I return.

We're going to talk about that in just a moment.

let me ask a blessing on this cup, as we remember,

Heavenly Father.

There is a cost to our sin.

And the covering for that is the blood of a spotless lamb.

God, you sent your son.

Pure and perfect.

And Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God shed his blood on that cross for us.

Got we are reminded this morning of the cost.

Of arson.

And we thank you.

We ask this blessing in Jesus name.

Amen.

Shall we partake together?

I love.

that is Jesus would

would give that to his followers.

as as Paul would later, remind the church, as they would celebrate this over and over.

And remember,

That we are to do this until he returns.

We're talking about that this morning.

In our passage is reminding us of things to come things, which will come in the future.

Go to fun to come to to the scriptures and I'm Peak.

Look ahead, just a little bit.

How many of you I want to?

I'm just curious on, this isn't my nose.

I'm just here watching a movie and how many of you actually go and look at How It Ends before the movies done, how do any of you do that?

Know how many of you have ever read the last chapter in a book before you read the whole?

Okay, it's okay.

I've read the last chapter in this book to rate, spoiler alert Godwin's, okay?

It's a great thing and Peter is reminding them of of things to come the rapture.

Is the next big event in God's revealed plant.

Nice.

They reveal plan because God is constantly working and there is some amazing things that are going on in this world right now, but the Rapture is God's next big event.

Turn with me.

As we look at some things.

In 2nd, Peter chapter 3, we're going to pick up where we left off last week, but we're going to jump back one first because I believe it's pertinent to the topic at hand verse 9. Says this, the Lord is not slow about his promise as some count slowness.

But his patients Ward, you not wishing for any to perish, but for all to come to repentance But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a Roar.

And the elements will be destroyed with intense Heat and the earth, and its Works will be burned up.

since all these things are to be destroyed in this way, What sort of people ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, looking for, and hastening the coming of the day of the God, because of which the heavens will be destroyed by burning in the elements will melt with intense Heat.

But according to his promise, we are looking for the new heavens and new earth in which righteousness dwells there for belong.

Since you look for these things, be diligent to be found by him.

And peace spotless and blameless and regard the patience of Our Lord, as salvation, Just as also, our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom, given him wrote to you as also in all his letters, speaking in them of these things, and which are some things hard to understand.

I agree.

Which was untaught, which the untaught in the unstable, distort as they do also the rest of the scriptures to their own destruction, May the Lord, add a blessing to the reading of his word.

And as we come to this passage, I want us to consider some upcoming events.

Okay.

And I even put together a nice little slide here, so it's kind of a map of future things and I don't know about you.

But when I look at a map, I like to know where I'm at.

It helps me, figure out where we're going.

Okay, so you are here, all right, we are here in the church age, the time from the cross, the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

When the Holy Spirit came at Pentecost began that the age of the church, you and I are living in that age as the Bride of Jesus Christ, Waiting with anticipation.

For his return for his bride, that's the exciting part, isn't it?

And the thing is, is we are here.

But at any moment, we could be here because the return, the rapture is is an imminent event.

It could happen at any moment.

I was hoping preaching and I say that one time and find a man that would be really cool time.

Okay.

Don't have a relationship with him in like, oh no,
