This is My memorial unto all generations. Exodus 3:15
A memorial is a monument keeping in memory a past event or person. Biblically, it means bringing the offerer of a sacrifice into remembrance before God or God into a favourable remembrance with the offerer. The Passover was a remembrance of the Lord’s redemption of His people from slavery, a reminder to them to observe it and to revere the Lord in worship (Ex. 12:27b). The Lord’s Supper is our memorial feast to keep the Saviour in our memory until He returns (1 Cor. 11:26). May our memories of Him be precious today. —K. C. Ung
By Christ redeemed, in Christ restored, we keep the memory adored,
And show the death of our dear Lord, until He come.
His body broken in our stead is seen in this memorial bread,
And so our feeble love is fed until He come. —G. Rawson
