Theme: I Believe in Communion

A Holy Assembly

Read Leviticus 19:1–6

In the Old Testament, one person’s sin could bring God’s judgment down on the entire community. This happened because God has high standards. He expects His children to follow His lead.

Speak to the entire assembly of Israel and say to them: “Be holy because I, the Lord your God, am holy” (Leviticus 19:2).

Even today, Christians are called to be a holy assembly to show the world how the Savior changes people. The Church is made up of flawed, sinful people who have accepted God’s offer of salvation. We are not holy in ourselves. However, God’s Spirit in us makes us holy.

Believers are also called to be an assembly. We are not called to act alone. We are called to join with brothers and sisters in Christ to encourage one another, worship together, learn how to live properly, and remember Christ’s sacrifice at Calvary. His sacrifice makes it all possible, and we should celebrate that victory over sin and death.

Challenge for Today: Remembering Christ’s broken body and spilled blood, act in holiness today.
