From Adam to Christ: our problem and our Solution

We gather at the Lord’s table today with humility, remembering that we are all part of the problem. In Adam, we share in sin and death. But we also come with hope, because there is One who is the solution. His name is Jesus Christ.

As Paul writes: “Since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man. For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive” (1 Corinthians 15:21–22). In Holy Communion, we not only remember the cross, but we also proclaim the victory of the risen Lord who is our Solution.
