Jesus the Lamb and Lion

Jesus of course instituted the Lord’s Supper and represented himself as the lamb chosen by God to be sacrificed for the sins of the world… sins past, sins present and sins future. In so doing he represents himself as weak and humble allowing himself to be abused by creatures lessor than himself. Jesus the Lamb of God.

Jesus is represented in an entirely different manner in the Revelation… eyes like a flame of fire, a roaring voice, a sword coming out of his mouth. Jesus the Lion of God.

At the end of time we’ll see Jesus the warrior King coming back to earth and on that day it will be the last time that we participate in the Lords Supper and eat the bread which represents the broken body of the Lamb of God.

Until then we faithfully assemble and humbly eat the bread that represents Christ’s body and drink the cup which is his blood.
