TOPIC: PARTAKE RESPONSIBLY

TEXT: 1 Corinthians 11:23-29

23 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread: 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. 25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.

26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come. 27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. 28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup. 29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.

INTRODUCTION TEXT

In our text, we see divine emphasis on the need for a clear understanding of the mystery of Holy Communion, before partaking in it. This sacrament was instituted by God to illustrate the force of the New Covenant expressed in the Body and Blood of Jesus. So, each time we partake of the Holy Communion, we remember Christ's death: Its purpose and power.

How then should we approach the Holy Communion? We should do it with reverence, discernment and faith, trusting God to revalidate the force of Christ in our lives every time we partake of the Holy Communion. When we do, we will enjoy the power of the New Covenant expressed in the elements of the Holy Communion.

Prayer: Dear Lord, help me to see the mystery of the Holy Communion, Amen!
