Opening Hymn; As I have done for you by Dan Shutte
I, your Lord and Master,
Now become your servant.
I who made the moon and stars
Will kneel to wash your feet.
This is My commandment:
To love as I have loved you.
Kneel to wash each other’s feet
As I have done for you.
All the world will know
You are My disciples
By the love that you offer,
The kindness you show.
You have heard the voice of God
In the words that I have spoken.
You beheld Heaven’s glory
And have seen the face of God.
I, your Lord and Master,
Now become your servant.
I who made the moon and stars
Will kneel to wash your feet.
This is My commandment:
To love as I have loved you.
Kneel to wash each other’s feet
As I have done for you.
Sermon:
Holy Thursday is the day that Jesus did a lot of things on this earth 2000 years ago and then had his last supper with his diciples. This is what happened right after they ate, Jesus took bread and broke it, and said, this is my body broken for you, take and eat it. He did the same thing with a cup of wine back in those days, and it was passed around and they took a sip and this was his blood shed for all, so sins are forgiven. Today this is called Holy communion. You should do this as often as you want Jesus said. It would not be a bad idea to take a little grape juice and cracker and have your own Holy communion once in a while. When people go to church they get it when the church does it, but you should do this on your own with your Heavenly Father. Just a suggestion. Soon after the supper was over, Judas Iscariot betrayed Jesus with a kiss. Jesus then was arrested. Many years later it has been found that Jesus was crucified. People said it was on Friday because it was taught that way, but it has been found that it was very late on Holy Thursday. Jesus had said he would die and then rose on the 3rd day, so Thursday about 1 to 5 minutes before midnight, Friday , and Saturday and Sunday he rose again at 6:00am in the morning or before that, not sure. Remember, we are finding out new facts that were hidden from us that will come out. The other ministers did not lie about things, because it was hidden from them. In these last days, a lot of things have been found that were hidden from us.
John 13:28 Jesus said to him, “What you are about to do, do quickly.
Psalm 23:6 Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
You have to remember when Jesus and the disciples were; there was lack of understanding and communication, but one thing that was understood was that Jesus had to be put on the cross to save people from thier sins. They did not really want to do this.
John 6:53 Jesus said to them, Very truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you.
John 13:1It was just before the Passover Festival. Jesus knew that the hour had come for him to leave this world and go to the Father. Having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.
Closing Hymn; Thank you for the cross Lord, by Hillsong worship;
Thank You for the cross, Lord;
Thank You for the price You paid;
Bearing all my sin and shame,
In love You came,
And gave amazing grace.
Thank You for this love, Lord;
Thank You for the nail-pierced hands;
Washed me in Your cleansing flow,
Now all I know
Your forgiveness and embrace.
Worthy is the Lamb, seated on the throne;
Crown You now with many crowns,
You reign victorious.
High and lifted up, Jesus Son of God,
The Darling of Heaven crucified;
Worthy is the Lamb, Worthy is the Lamb.
Closing Prayer; Heavenly Father we thank you for Jesus dying on the cross for our sins, and we thank you for your word, and how it never changed yesterday and will not change today. We thank you in the name of Jesus. Amen.
