00:00:08.000 --> 00:00:11.679
<v SPEAKER_00>I just want to lead you into a time of communion now.

00:00:12.480 --> 00:00:15.439
<v SPEAKER_00>Can you remember going back to year six or seven?

00:00:15.519 --> 00:00:16.879
<v SPEAKER_00>That's been a long time ago.

00:00:17.120 --> 00:00:28.399
<v SPEAKER_00>Remember those science experiments where you had you put a magnet near a collection of iron filings, and that magnet will keep picking them up on and on and on.

00:00:28.719 --> 00:00:33.359
<v SPEAKER_00>The magnet never loses its power over the iron filings.

00:00:33.439 --> 00:00:37.280
<v SPEAKER_00>The magnet never loses its authority over the iron filings.

00:00:37.679 --> 00:00:46.960
<v SPEAKER_00>The other thing that I thought, if I take out new insurance, they send me a legal document saying what they will do for me.

00:00:47.280 --> 00:00:50.479
<v SPEAKER_00>And I'm just looking at Mark 14, 24 to 8.

00:00:50.560 --> 00:00:57.600
<v SPEAKER_00>It says, Jesus says, This is my blood, which confirms a new covenant between God and His people.

00:00:58.079 --> 00:01:03.200
<v SPEAKER_00>This is God's legal commitment to his people through his blood.

00:01:03.439 --> 00:01:08.000
<v SPEAKER_00>And looked at eight things that God gives us through the blood of Jesus.

00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:10.640
<v SPEAKER_00>There's probably so many more, but eight.

00:01:10.799 --> 00:01:12.879
<v SPEAKER_00>There's forgiveness of sins.

00:01:13.359 --> 00:01:15.040
<v SPEAKER_00>There's peace with God.

00:01:16.079 --> 00:01:21.040
<v SPEAKER_00>We're transferred from enemies into friends with God.

00:01:21.439 --> 00:01:25.519
<v SPEAKER_00>We have moved from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of light.

00:01:25.760 --> 00:01:27.920
<v SPEAKER_00>We are united with Christ.

00:01:28.239 --> 00:01:32.079
<v SPEAKER_00>Once we were far away, but now we have been brought close.

00:01:32.640 --> 00:01:37.680
<v SPEAKER_00>As we are united with Christ, we have received an inheritance from God.

00:01:38.239 --> 00:01:41.200
<v SPEAKER_00>And lastly, thank you so much.

00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:42.000
<v unknown>Goody.

00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:44.400
<v SPEAKER_00>There is no condemnation.

00:01:44.719 --> 00:01:50.640
<v SPEAKER_00>That legal document gives us those things, and there's so many more that we could find.

00:01:50.879 --> 00:01:54.959
<v SPEAKER_00>As we take the blood and the bread.

00:01:55.280 --> 00:02:04.239
<v SPEAKER_00>Well, let us rejoice that we are legally committed in a covenant relationship with God and He gives us so much.

00:02:04.480 --> 00:02:09.199
<v SPEAKER_00>Let's be grateful, let's rejoice in all that He gives us.

00:02:09.439 --> 00:02:16.479
<v SPEAKER_00>And as you are taking the bread and the wine, I'll invite the worship team to come up there when it's appropriate for them.
