This Do in Remembrance of Me

The Lord's Day Morning August 14, 2011 “This Do in Remembrance of Me” Luke 22:14-19 The Reverend Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to Luke chapter 22. We’ll be looking at verses 14 to 19 today. When we looked at the first part of this chapter last week, we said that it was the last Passover, and it is. Let me remind you of where this is happening. Jesus and His disciples are in an upper room somewhere inside the city walls of Jerusalem, and you understand the theological significance of that. You understand the importance of that in the history of God's purposes of redemption with His people, don't you? Two thousand years before Jesus stood with His disciples gathering in the upper room and preparing to recline at the…

Prepare the Passover

The Lord's Day Morning August 7, 2011 “Prepare the Passover” Luke 22:1-13 The Reverend Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to Luke chapter 22. We have reached the crescendo of the gospel of Luke. From Luke 22 to the end of this book, we will consider the sufferings and death and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. And in the material that Luke gives us, we will enter into the very holy of holies, the heart of the Christian faith. And in the passage before us today in Luke 22:1-13, we find ourselves on Thursday, the fourteenth of Nisan, the Thursday of the Passion Week, and it's the day of the preparation for the Passover lamb. And Jesus is giving Peter and John instructions on getting the Passover meal itself and all of its…

Arranged

Wednesday Evening January 24, 2007 Numbers 2 “Arranged” Dr. Ligon Duncan III Amen. If you have your Bibles, I’d invite you to turn with me to Numbers 2. Thank you. It’s not quite as long a passage as last week, but it’s a fairly long passage. Last week we were in Numbers 1, which gave us the numbering of the tribes; now in Numbers 2, we come to the arranging of the tribes. And we’ve said as we have come to the book of Numbers that this book, though it is filled with history that is unfamiliar to some, history that is suspected to be boring by others…we’ve said that Moses tells the stories of the history of God’s people in such a way in this book that these stories are electric, and they are filled with wisdom and with Christ for us. We also…

Oil and Loaves: An Everlasting Covenant

Wednesday Evening August 3, 2005 Leviticus 24:1-9 “An Everlasting Covenant” The Reverend Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to Leviticus, chapter 24, as we continue to work our way through this great book. We are on track, by the way, Lord willing, to finish Leviticus at the end of this month on Wednesday nights. By the 31st we should come to the final chapter of this book, in Leviticus 27, and then we will launch forth into the third book of…

Things My Dad Taught Me Never to Talk About in Public

Wednesday Evening May 4, 2005 Leviticus 15:1-33 “Things My Dad Taught Me Never to Talk About in Public” Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III Amen. If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to Leviticus 15. This is again one of the passages in the midst of the holiness code in Leviticus in which God is explaining to the children of Israel how He wants them to keep themselves pure and separate from the nations around them, and how He wants them to be clean before they come into His…

Ligon Duncan III If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to Leviticus, chapter six. Tonight we will be looking again at what has been called the grain offering or the meal offering.

The Sacrifice of Peace: The Fellowship Offering

The Lord's Day Evening October 10, 2004 Leviticus 3:1-17 “The Sacrifice of Peace: The Fellowship Offering” Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III I invite you to turn with me to Leviticus, chapter three. As we began our study of the Book of Leviticus, we observed a number of things about the structure of this book. The first half deals with the various sacrifices, the ordination of the priests, and culminates in chapter sixteen with the description of the sacrifice of atonement on the Day of Atonement.…

The Blood of the Covenant

Exodus 24:1-11The Glory Blood of the Covenant If you have your Bibles, I would invite you to turn with me to Exodus 24. During the summer on Wednesday evenings, we worked through the Book of the Covenant. Now, keep your finger at Exodus 24, and turn back to Exodus 20, and look at verse 22. The Book of the Covenant begins in that verse. The Book of the Covenant contains the applications and illustrations of how the Ten Commandments apply to the daily life of Israel as individuals and as a…
