And it shall come to pass, when your children shall say unto you, What mean ye by this service? - Exodus 12:26
In answer to that question, ye shall say, “It is the sacrifice of the Lord's passover, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he smote the Egyptians and delivered our houses.”
When we are asked concerning our observance of the Lord's Supper and are asked, “What mean ye by this service?” what shall we reply?
- It is the memory of him who is salvation.
- It is in token of our faith and trust in him.
- It is evidence of our obedience to him.
- It is a type of our communion with him, “Christ in you is the hope of glory.
- It is the blessed hope of drinking it new with him shortly (Luke 22:18).
