THE HOLY COMMUNION

God bless you for taking your time to study. 

THE HOLY COMMUNION

MONDAY AUGUST 22nd

TEXT: LUKE. 22: 19 –20

Key verse: For as often as ye eat this bread and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he comes. I Corinthians 11:26
The Holy Communion or Lord’s Supper is a rite Jesus instituted for His followers to observe in remembrance of His sacrificial death until He returns to rapture the church. The fact that it was carried out in the evening does not mean it must only be taken in the evening. What is significant is the memory it gives to the church concerning the sacrificial death of Jesus anytime it is taken.
1 Corinthians 11:23-26
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 comes.
The following are stated in Paul’s presentation:
 The bread represents the body
 The wine (non-alcoholic) represents the blood
 Taking these two items is in remembrance of Jesus’ death till He returns
 The rite is to be observed often by the church
 The partakes must ensure there is no un-confessed sin in their lives
 It is dangerous for sinners to partake of this rite in their sin
 Judgment follows those who take this in sin.

Thought for the day: Holy Communion shows the Lord’s death till He comes.

Song for the day: In the cross, in the cross…

Bible reading for the day: 
Psalms 119:49-104; 1Corinthians 4

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

Every Word Of God For Daily Living For taking your time to study remain blessed July Tuesday 9th TOPIC: WE ARE IN THE TWILIGHT HOUR OF RAPTURE TEXT: Ephesians 5:26-27 KEY VERSE: Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Seeing the traces of the features of the next dispensation in this present dispensation, you should know that you are in the twilight hour. What is a twilight hour? A twilight hour is that hour of the day that you begin to see the traces of the night while it is still daylight (probably 7:00pm to 7:30pm). It is not completely dark, yet it is not complete bright either. While it is still day, you are seeing the traces of the night. A twilight hour is the hour when you are still in this dispensation but you are already seeing traces of the next. The twilight hour is the time that our Lord Jesus Christ was born and even though He came with the New Test...
