So come to His table, listening only to His words and receiving what He gives. All your doing doesn't count against you anymore. There is none of you, none of your doing outside of Jesus forgiveness. Nothing can separate you from Him, for He has borne it all and answered for it in your place. The Lord invites you to His table, family and fellowship to share all His happy good. This is how much He loves you. And by this Meal the Lord brings you on your way to that glad feast that is the feast of the Lamb with all His saints.Saints - that is you and me and all His disciples, the many accounted righteous, whose iniquities He bore, whose chastisement He took, those whom He makes whole by what He did as the sacrifice for sin and by what He gives us to share together at His table. Amen.Selected Sermons of Normal Nagel - page 112
