Reading: Isaiah 53, Romans 5:6\u20138, John 3:16. Questions for reflection: <i>\u201cDo I feel that His death was for me personally?\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cHe was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed.\u201d <cite><a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=Isaiah+53:5&amp;version=UKR\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Isa 53:5<\/a><\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2>Day 2 \u2014 Personal Examination<\/h2>\n<p>A time of silence and prayer. Reading: Psalm 139:23\u201324, 1 John 1:9. Question: <i>\u201cWhat in my heart needs forgiveness and change?\u201d<\/i> A written prayer of repentance may be suggested \u2014 not for public reading, but for personally bringing before God.<\/p>\n<h2>Day 3 \u2014 Grace and Reconciliation<\/h2>\n<p>If there is a division or offense in the community, this day is especially important before the Lord\u2019s Supper. Jesus said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIf you bring your gift to the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you \u2014 leave your gift there and go; first be reconciled to your brother.\u201d <cite><a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=Matthew+5:23-24&amp;version=UKR\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Matt 5:23\u201324<\/a><\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2>Day 4 \u2014 Resurrection and New Hope<\/h2>\n<p>Reading: 1 Corinthians 15:20\u201322, John 20:19\u201321. The cross is not the end \u2014 it is the beginning. Focus attention on the fact that Christ\u2019s resurrection is the foundation of our hope and the guarantee of our own resurrection.<\/p>\n<h2>The Lord\u2019s Supper Service<\/h2>\n<p>Conclude the week with the Supper, including foot washing and the breaking of bread. <b>The symbols are simple: bread and wine remind us that He gave His body and blood. The basin and towel remind us that He came not to be served, but to serve.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Such a program is not a mandatory standard, but an invitation. Each church adapts it to its own context.
