It is the highest expression of Christian worship. &nbsp;&nbsp;What is\nits meaning?&nbsp; How do we participate?&nbsp; Why is this act different from any other act\nof service or witness?&nbsp; To discover the\nBiblical answer, we turn to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><li>Historical\nContext: Written in approximately 55 A.D., <a href=\"http:\/\/bible.logos.com\/passage\/niv\/1%20Corinthians%201.1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">1 Corinthians 1:1<\/a> identifies the author of\nthe Book of 1 Corinthians as the Apostle Paul.&nbsp;\nHe started the church in Corinth.\nA few years after leaving the church, the Apostle Paul heard some disturbing\nreports about the Corinthian church. It was full of pride, the church was\nexcusing sexual immorality, spiritual gifts were being used improperly, and\nthere was rampant misunderstanding of key Christian doctrines. The Apostle Paul\nwrote 1 Corinthians in an attempt to restore the Corinthian church to its\nfoundation \u2013 Jesus Christ.&nbsp; The Lord\u2019s\nSupper, or communion, played a dynamic role in reversing the misbehavior of the\nCorinthians.&nbsp; <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><li>Grammatical\nUsage: \u201cRemembrance\u201d in the Greek is \u201canamnesis\u201d meaning, \u201can affectionate\ncalling of the Person Himself to mind or spiritual reality.\u201d&nbsp; The popular misinterpretation \u201cin memory of\u201d\nis not at all associated with the Greek.&nbsp;\nThe Greek harkens back to the sacrifices under the law which was not\nsimply an external bringing to remembrance, but an awakening of mind, or\nspirit, in the midst of an act of worship (Lev. 24:7; Num. 10:10; Pss. 38 &amp;\n70).<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><li>Literal\nApplication: And after He had given thanks, He broke it and said, \u2018This is my\nbody, the (broken, given, crucified) for you.&nbsp;\nDo this to recall Myself unto you.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><li>Contextual\nInterpretation: The Passover was the most sacred feast of the Jewish\nreligious year. It commemorated the final plague on Egypt when the firstborn of the\nEgyptians died and the Israelites were spared because the blood of a lamb was\nsprinkled on their doorposts. The lamb then was roasted and eaten with\nunleavened bread. God\u2019s command was that throughout the generations to come the\nfeast would be celebrated. The story is recorded in Exodus 12.<br>\n<br>\nDuring the celebration, Jesus and the disciples sang together one or more of\nthe Hallel Psalms (Psalms 111 \u2013 118). Jesus, taking a loaf of bread, gave\nthanks to God. As He broke it and gave it to them, He said, \u201cThis is my body\ngiven for you; do this in remembrance of me. In the same way, after the supper\nhe took the cup, saying, \u2018This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is\npoured out for you\u2019\u201d (<a href=\"http:\/\/bible.logos.com\/passage\/niv\/Luke%2022.19-21\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Luke 22:19-21<\/a>). He concluded the feast by\nsinging a hymn (<a href=\"http:\/\/bible.logos.com\/passage\/niv\/Matthew%2026.30\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Matthew 26:30<\/a>) and\nthey went out into the night to the Mount of Olives.\nIt was there that Jesus was betrayed, as predicted, by Judas. The following day\nHe was crucified.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><li>Scriptural Comparison: The accounts\nof the Lord\u2019s Supper are found in the Gospels in <a href=\"http:\/\/bible.logos.com\/passage\/niv\/Matthew%2026.26-29\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Matthew 26:26-29<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/bible.logos.com\/passage\/niv\/Mark%2014.17-25\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mark 14:17-25<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/bible.logos.com\/passage\/niv\/Luke%2022.7-22\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Luke 22:7-22<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/bible.logos.com\/passage\/niv\/John%2013.21-30\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">John 13:21-30<\/a>.

The kind of bread, whether <a href=\"http:\/\/christiananswers.net\/dictionary\/leaven.html\">leavened<\/a> or unleavened, is not specified.\nUnleavened bread was at that moment on the paschal [<a href=\"http:\/\/christiananswers.net\/dictionary\/passover.html\">Passover<\/a>] table. <a href=\"http:\/\/christiananswers.net\/dictionary\/wine.html\">Wine<\/a> (unfermented), and no other liquid, is to be used (<a href=\"http:\/\/christiananswers.net\/bible\/mat26.html#26\">Matt.\n26:26-29<\/a>). Believers \u201cfeed\u201d on Christ&#8217;s body and blood, (1) not with\nthe mouth in any manner, but (2) by the soul alone, and (3) by <a href=\"http:\/\/christiananswers.net\/dictionary\/faith.html\">faith<\/a>, which is the mouth or hand of the\nsoul. This they do <strong>(4) by the power of\nthe <a href=\"http:\/\/christiananswers.net\/dictionary\/holyghost.html\">Holy Ghost<\/a><\/strong>. This \u201cfeeding\u201d on Christ,\nhowever, takes place not in the Lord&#8217;s Supper alone, but whenever faith in Him\nis exercised but specifically designated corporately during the ordinance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Paul includes a\nstatement not found in the Gospels: \u201cTherefore, whoever eats the bread or\ndrinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning\nagainst the body and blood of the Lord. A man ought to examine himself before\nhe eats of the bread and drinks of the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks\nwithout recognizing the body of the Lord eats and drinks judgment on himself.\nFor this reason many among you are weak and sick, and a number sleep.\u201d (<a href=\"http:\/\/bible.logos.com\/passage\/niv\/1%20Corinthians%2011.27-29\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">1 Corinthians 11:27-<\/a>30).\nWe may ask what it means to partake of the bread and the cup \u201cin an unworthy manner.\u201d\nIt means to disregard the true meaning of the bread and cup, forgetting the\ntremendous price our Savior paid for our salvation. This explains why one would\ncome to the Lord\u2019s Supper with unconfessed sin. In keeping with Paul\u2019s\ninstruction, each should examine himself before eating of the bread and\ndrinking of the cup.&nbsp; The result of\nparticipation in the Communion without a proper spiritual recognition of its\ngreat significance and consequent spiritual preparation, in terms of objective\nintrospection, repentance, request for forgiveness and a new yielding to the\nHoly Spirit is great.&nbsp; The Greek\nconditional tense indicates that consequences are not automatic, but highly\nprobable.&nbsp; It also indicates that known,\nunconfessed sin harbored during the act of Communion, invites the wrath of God\nimmediately or in time.&nbsp; This is very\ndifferent from the wrath of God intended for the unsaved as they have an\n\u201cappointed time\u201d (1 Thes. 5:9) to experience God\u2019s wrath.&nbsp; The difference is one of chastening vs.\npunishment (v. 32).&nbsp; God does not punish\nthe devil\u2019s children (Jn 8:44) before the time, but He does chastise His own\n(Heb. 12:5-8).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">V. 30 is clear as\nto the forms of chastening: weak, sick and death.&nbsp; Why should ill health, debilitation and even\nphysical death be the punishment for the misuse of the Lord \u2019s table?&nbsp; Because the Christian is the temple of the\nHoly Spirit (1 Cor. 6:19, 20; 3:16).&nbsp;\nThus, the sinning Christian forces the Holy Spirit into a compromising\nposition.&nbsp; He cannot leave (contrary to\nthe Armenian position) since by Him we are sealed until the resurrection (Eph.\n1:13, 14; 4:30).&nbsp; Thus if we defile the\ntemple (our bodies) God will destroy the temple (1 Cor. 3: 16, 17).&nbsp; It is the sin unto physical death visited\nupon the backslidden and <em>persistently<\/em>\nrebellious Christian (Cf. Acts 5:1-11; 1 Cor. 5:1-5; 1 Jn 5:16).&nbsp; The unrepentant saint who sits at the Lord\u2019s\ntable is particularly sinful because of the spiritual significance and mystical\nexchange taking place in the participatory act itself.&nbsp; A backslidden Christian can usher, pass the\noffering plate, sing a solo or even preach a sermon without incurring God\u2019s\njudgment, but the Communion service is the very heart of Christianity where the\nSpirit is in the midst amidst the Biblical warnings of unworthy\nparticipation.&nbsp; In truth, while the\nCommunion table is a dangerous place for the careless Christian, it is indeed\nthe safest place for the Christian who observes the ordinance according to\nPaul\u2019s admonition.&nbsp; <br>\n<br>\nAnother statement Paul made that is not included in the gospel accounts is \u201cFor\nwhenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord\u2019s death\nuntil He comes\u201d (<a href=\"http:\/\/bible.logos.com\/passage\/niv\/1%20Corinthians%2011.26\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">1 Corinthians 11:26<\/a>).\nThis places a time limit on the ceremony\u2014until our Lord\u2019s return. From these\nbrief accounts we learn how Jesus used two of the frailest of elements as\nsymbols of His body and blood and initiated them to be a monument to His death.\nIt was not a monument of carved marble or molded brass, but of bread and wine.<br>\n<br>\nHe declared that the bread spoke of His body which would be broken. There was\nnot a broken bone, but His body was so badly broken that it was hardly\nrecognizable (<a href=\"http:\/\/bible.logos.com\/passage\/niv\/Psalm%2022.12-17\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Psalm 22:12-17<\/a>; <a href=\"http:\/\/bible.logos.com\/passage\/niv\/Isaiah%2053.4-7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Isaiah 53:4-7<\/a>). The wine spoke of His\nblood, indicating the terrible death He would soon experience. He, the perfect\nSon of God, became the fulfillment of the countless Old Testament prophecies\nconcerning a Redeemer (<a href=\"http:\/\/bible.logos.com\/passage\/niv\/Genesis%203.15\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Genesis 3:15<\/a>; Psalm 22; Isaiah 53). When He\nsaid, \u201cDo this in remembrance of me,\u201d He indicated this was an ordinance that\nmust be continued in the future. It indicated also that the Passover, which\nrequired the death of a lamb and looked forward to the coming of the Lamb of\nGod who would take away the sin of the world, was fulfilled in the Lord\u2019s Supper.\nThe New Covenant took its place when Christ, the Passover Lamb (<a href=\"http:\/\/bible.logos.com\/passage\/niv\/1%20Corinthians%205.7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">1 Corinthians 5:7<\/a>), was sacrificed (<a href=\"http:\/\/bible.logos.com\/passage\/niv\/Hebrews%208.8-13\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Hebrews 8:8-13<\/a>). The sacrificial system was\nno longer needed (<a href=\"http:\/\/bible.logos.com\/passage\/niv\/Hebrews%209.25-28\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Hebrews 9:25-28<\/a>). The\nLord\u2019s Supper \/ Christian Communion addresses what Christ did for us and a celebration\nof what we receive as a result of His sacrifice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><li>Conclusion: Many of the problems\nand questions the Corinthian church was dealing with are still present in the\nchurch today. Churches still struggle with divisions, with immorality, and with\nspiritual gifts. The book of 1 Corinthians very well could have been written to\nthe present-day church. Despite all the rebukes and corrections, 1 Corinthians\nbrings our focus back to where it should be. Genuine Christian love is the\nanswer to many problems (1 Corinthians chapter 13). A proper understanding of\nthe resurrection of Christ, and thereby a proper understand of our own\nresurrection \u2013 is the cure for what divides and defeats us (1 Corinthians\nchapter 15).&nbsp; The supernatural check in\nall of this is the abiding Holy Spirit manifested corporately within the\nCommunion.<\/li><\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I Corinthians 11:24: And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
