Tradition has 4 cups because of G_d promised:

I will take you out

I will rescue you

I will redeem you

I will bring you in

Blessed are You, Lord our G_d, King of the universe who creates the fruit of the vine.

We thank You, G_d for giving us the gift of festivals and the joy of feast days for happiness, among them Passover, the festival of liberation, a day sacred to the Jewish people for their Exodus out of Egypt and a festival unto the believers in Messiah for this example of our exodus out of the bondage of sin and death.

There is a Jewish word Dayenu, which means It would have been enough.

So thank You Lord G_d for taking us out of bondage... Dayenu, that would have been enough.
