Repentance and the Lord's Supper - Audio

The Heights Baptist Church

Look at what surrounds the call to prayer: humility and repentance. Our repentance may have more impact on America, on Israel, than our requests. Now it is not hard to confess other people’s sins. We can with self-righteousness call out the sins of our nation, or those of Israel. Note the call to humility. There may be many sins plaguing our land that we are not guilty of, but that does not mean we are innocent. This is not just about calling out the sins of the nation, but calling out our own sins as a part of this nation. And how readily we who know the Lord should do this, for we have the security of knowing we have His forgiveness. We are going to do this today with the Lord’s Supper, that which should bring us joyfully to humility as we think on how great God’s love is. To rightly celebrate this moment, it is done in humility and repentance.
