Old Testament Passover And New Testament Sacrament
Another Look At The Word And The Sacraments
Baptism is the first sacrament. A sacrament is a sacred act of God for forgiveness of sins as instituted by Jesus Christ.
The second sacrament is called the Lord's Supper or the Last Supper because it was the last meal of our Lord on earth. It is also called Holy Communion because in it God gives us union with him and with one another. In addition, it is called the Sacrament because in, through, and under the bread and wine, God is acting to give us the body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ.
