Maundy Thursday

"Maundy" is Old English taken from French taken from Latin"Mandatum novum". In Latin it is the first word in the phrase " A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another." John 13:34

I suppose I could preach a great sermon about love here, but let me encourage you to do your own sermon. Go to http://www.crosswalk.com/ or http://www.biblegateway.com/ or another Bible study site and do a search for "love". Narrow your search down to John or John's epistles or you'll have too long of a list. Then read those verses that show up in the search and then the Holy Spirit will tell you what you need to hear.

Maundy Thursday is a time to remember Christ's servant love as he washed the disciples' feet, the Last Supper, Judas' betrayal and the arrest and trials. Tune in tomorrow to read about Good Friday.
