One of the things our Lord reminds us of at this table every week is that our guilt is dead and gone. The body of Christ has been broken and your guilty charges were broken there with Him. He took them to the grave and didn’t bring them back when He rose from the dead. You have no right to talk back to Him about this matter. You have no warrant to crawl down into Hades and grovel in that guilt He has taken away.

You are on the mountain of the Lord at the feast of the Lamb, with bread and wine prepared, dressed in garments washed white by the blood of our Passover Lamb. It is your privilege and duty to live as liberated ones. This blood speaks a better word than the blood of Abel. Abel’s blood cried out from the ground, testifying to Cain’s guilt. And this blood dries out through the cup. God hears. And the message concerning you is: not guilty. So come in faith and welcome to Jesus Christ.
