Let’s look at the Lord’s supper from another angle. Let’s start at the beginning. Deliverance From Sin And Death 16And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, “Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; 17but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.” Genesis 2:16, God basically said to Adam, “Hey, don’t do this dumb thing or you will suffer a horrible consequence.” The consequence of sinning is death. Now, death is a big word. It means curses, eternal hell, physical death, tears, suffering and more. Sin leads to death. Romans 6:23 states that “…the wages of sin is death….” After Adam and Eve sinned, God looked down from heaven at man’s condition and saw two things that He did not like. He saw man doing stupid things on the earth, i.e., sin. And, He saw the horrible…

3 As His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, 2 Peter 1:3 The apostle Peter is implying in the above scripture that the great rewards and goals of the Gospel are life and godliness. It seems that the Christian walk can be categorized by these two great words. Let’s relate these two themes to the Lord’s Supper and the cross. Jesus delivered us from sin so that we can be godly. Godliness is the goal of the bread. Also, Jesus experienced death for us so that we can experience life. Life is the goal of the cup. In other words, the Holy Spirit is pleading and waiting for us to take our sin to the cross so that He can lead us into godliness (righteousness, obedience, etc.) By experiencing the deliverance of the cross, we are freed up to be…

16The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ? 1 Corinthians 10:16 The Taste of the Bread & the Taste of the Cup The cup of the Lord’s Supper is a delicious drink. It is called in Scripture, “the cup of blessing.” Whether it is wine or grape juice, this drink is physically pleasing to sip. This fact is not accidental. This delightful drink, this cup of blessing, stands for a delightful message: He suffered death for me that I might have life. He took my judgment on Himself. I don’t have to pay for my sins; instead, I get to inherit a blessing. When a judge declares you not guilty, you are delighted and relieved. This is an easy message to swallow and the drink that symbolizes this message is similarly easy to swallow. On the…

6 Your glorying is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump? 7 Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us. 8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. 1 Corinthians 5:6-8 19 For seven days no leaven shall be found in your houses, since whoever eats what is leavened, that same person shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he is a stranger or a native of the land. 20You shall eat nothing leavened; in all your dwellings you shall eat unleavened bread.”‘ Exodus 12:19-20 10 By that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. Hebrews 10:10 The Unleavened Bread Primarily…

16 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ? 1 Corinthians 10:16 Communing with His Body and Blood When we die to self or reckon ourselves dead to some sin, and are lead by the Spirit instead, we are communing with the body of Christ (I Peter 2:24, Hebrews 10:5-10, I Corinthians 5:6-8, etc.). Whenever we exercise the authority of the blood over some area of condemnation or death (lack, sickness, alienation, boredom, sickness, etc.) and believe a promise for life and blessing in its stead, we are communing with the blood of Christ. If one thinks about it, every minute of our day as Christians is spent acting out one or both of these two basic themes. When a person walks into his or her workplace, he is immediately concerned about what he should be…
