Full Text:
When you have the celebration of the Lord’s Table . . . you have a congregation gathered together that all of the time is constantly being reminded: some of you in this room have paid for abortions; some of you in this room were what the world calls porn stars; some of you in this room were embezzlers and gamblers and wife abusers; some of you in this room were covetous, smug [churchgoers]; some of you in this room have violated the law of God in all of these many ways, but in Christ, the destroyer has passed over you. You are forgiven, not because God has turned in ignorance from you, but because God has placed your sins upon Jesus, and he has been through hell for you. This is a warning of judgment. It is also a magnificent proclamation of the liberating power of God.
–Russell D. Moore, “Jesus, Take the Meal: Why We’re Afraid of the Lord’s Table (Luke 22:7-30)”, 5
