What would happen if the liturgy for the Lord's Supper started with the images in the New Testament rather than the divisions of our past? It would be like going through an open door into a new world. There we would find a new Passover celebration, a new covenant, and remembrance and proclamation of Jesus' death and resurrection--all in the context of the kingdom of God. It would be an evangelical Lord's Supper. This is a high-risk operation, given the reliance by many on transactional sacrifice and the tendency to reduce the Supper to a sacrament of penance for individuals. Ideas rejected by Luther and Calvin now reappear even among Protestants. The goal cannot be reached by subtracting a few things and adding references to eschatology and joy. The good news is that many churches have already taken steps to reform their liturgies.

Many commentaries and devotionals have been writ-ten on the Book of Jeremiah; however, Baccus has focused on chapter 29 as it relates to Christian living and spiritual growth for the Christian today.

Gods promises for an expected end are for all Christians who are willing to prepare themselves by submission to the refining the work of God in their lives.
