Why is it important for Christians to remember the past works of Christ?

Answered in 1 source

Remembering Christ's works assures believers of their salvation and motivates them to live faithfully.

The importance of remembering Christ's past works, as emphasized by Peter in his epistle, lies in the assurance it provides to believers regarding their salvation. By regularly reflecting on the gospel and the notable events of Christ's life, Christians are reminded of the depth of God's grace and the finished work of salvation accomplished at the cross. This remembrance not only solidifies their faith but also encourages them to live in a manner that glorifies God, as they are reminded of His love and sacrifice for them. The practice of remembrance is central to worship, particularly in celebrating the Lord's Supper, as it invites believers to actively engage with the truths of their faith.
