REVELATION 5:9–10
“They sang a new song, saying, ‘Worthy are you to take the scroll and to open its seals, for you were slain, and by your blood you ransomed people for God from every tribe and language and people and nation, and you have made them a kingdom and priests to our God, and they shall reign on the earth.’”

Why are we, as saved sinners, given the privilege of feasting at the Communion table before a holy God? Because He has provided an atonement for our rebellion! In his sermon “The Lamb of God,” Alistair traces man’s search for a substitutionary sacrifice throughout Scripture, starting with Isaac, who asks his father, “Where is the lamb?” The ultimate answer, of course, comes centuries later, when John the Baptist introduces Jesus as the unblemished Lamb who takes away the sin of the world. By becoming sin for us on the cross, Christ Jesus provides perfect redemption—and perfect communion—for all who believe.
By nature, men and women act self-reliant, often burdened by the futility of trying to make sense of their existence or attempting to please God through self-effort. Jesus invites all sinners to come and find rest in Him. While His call is universal, it’s also very personal. Those who accept His invitation are expected to learn from Him.
“Changes,” a popular ’70s-era song, captures well the feeling many of us have toward the notion of change:
Everyone is going through changes;No one knows what’s going on;And everybody changes places,But the world still carries on.Love must always change to sorrow,And everyone must play the game;It’s here today and gone tomorrow,But the world goes on the same.

Dear Friend,
It happens to me every year on the Fourth of July: I find myself torn between the country of my birth and my adopted homeland. The first thirty-one years of my life were spent in the UK, but in many ways, the past forty-one in the US have actually deepened my ties with family and friends who still live on the opposite side of the Atlantic.
The book of Psalms is known as the hymnbook of the Bible, and Psalm 23 is perhaps the most well-known of all the psalms. It begins with the verse “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.” You may have read it many times or even have it memorized. In the new book The Lord of Psalm 23: Jesus Our Shepherd, Companion, and Host, you’ll plumb the depths of these “almost too familiar words” so you can fully grasp what it means to trust in Jesus as the Shepherd who protects us, comforts us, and leads us home.
“What’s wrong with the world?” someone asks. Many explanations are on offer: economic turmoil, moral collapse, political extremism. Certainly these are things that are going wrong. But are they “what’s wrong with the world”?

“If our Christianity costs us nothing, it is worth nothing.” —Alistair Begg
