What Gives Us Confidence (Maundy Thursday)

This sermon explores feelings of embarrassment, imposter syndrome, shame, and comparison, contrasting them with standing in God's holy presence. It emphasizes that through Jesus' blood and sacrifice, believers can have confidence to approach God despite their sins. Exploring Hebrews 10, the sermon highlights that God purposefully chooses to forget the sins of those in Christ. It connects this to Old Testament rituals and the Lord's Supper, explaining that in Communion, believers receive Christ's forgiveness and holiness, uniting them with God and the Church. The sermon concludes by urging believers to come to God with their need, finding confidence not in themselves, but in Christ's sufficient sacrifice and continuous forgiveness.
