Why is remembrance of Christ's sacrifice important for Christians?

The act of remembrance is vital for Christians as it acknowledges the foundation of their faith: the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ. In 1 Corinthians 11:24-25, Paul instructs believers to partake of the Lord's Supper in remembrance of Him. This act not only commemorates His sacrifice but also serves as a reminder of the depth of our sin and the immeasurable grace extended to us. It keeps us humble and reliant on Christ’s blood, which cleanses us from all sin (1 John 1:7), reinforcing our continual need for God's grace and mercy throughout our lives.
