The Lord’s Supper Examining the practice from Luke 22 and I Corinthians 11

The Lord’s Supper Background (Luke 22:1-13) – Jesus was about to die Betrayed by Judas Iscariot (Luke 22:1-6) Timing and opportunity (John 7:30; Luke 22:1, 53) Peter & John sent to prepare (Luke 22:7-13)

The Lord’s Supper Lord’s Supper instituted (Luke 22:14-21) – By Jesus, not a council of men Continued to be observed (Jerusalem, Troas, Corinth) – Communion with Christ in kingdom (Matt. 26:29) – Elements Unleavened bread (Exo. 12:15, 19-20; also Deut. 16:3-4) Fruit of the vine Other food was present (lamb, etc), but only the bread and juice were chosen for this memorial

The Lord’s Supper False doctrines – Alcoholic wine used (many denominations) Timothy wasn’t drinking alcohol (I Tim. 5:23) Bible warns against alcohol No scriptural basis – pleases man

The Lord’s Supper False doctrines – Consubstantiation and transubstantiation Consubstantiation (Lutheran) – body and blood are literally present in the Lord’s Supper Transubstantiation (Catholic) – bread and wine literally become body and blood Jews likewise misunderstood metaphor (John 6:52-60) Similar metaphors used – “I am the vine” (John 15:5)

The Lord’s Supper False doctrines – The “One Cup” doctrine Some claim there is no authority to separate juice into individual containers (Mark 14:23) “Cup” represents contents – you don’t drink the container – Container is insignificant Added detail in Luke 22:17-20 – they divided the juice among themselves before eating the bread

The Lord’s Supper A few more points – Bread represents body; juice represents blood – Observed in memory of Christ – Associated with thanksgiving We have much to be thankful for

The Lord’s Supper Lessons from Corinth (I Cor. 11:20-34) – Purpose for Sunday assemblies Come together to break bread (I Cor. 11:20; Acts 20:7) – Frequency – many ideas Annually, quarterly, holidays, weddings, any time First day of the week (I Cor. 16:2; Acts 20:7) Significance of Sunday – Jesus raised on the first day of the week (Mark 16:9) – It is the “Lord’s day” (Rev. 1:10), just as it is the Lord’s supper – First citizens added to kingdom (Acts 2; on Pentecost) – Christians devoted to four spiritual things (Acts 2:42)

The Lord’s Supper Lessons from Corinth – Not a common meal (I Cor. 11:20-22) Non-spiritual activities should be done elsewhere Reminder of purpose (I Cor. 11:23-26) Not optional (John 6:53) – Renewed focus (I Cor. 11:27-34) Observing unworthily is a serious offense Open your Bible if you find yourself distracted An easy passage to remember is Matthew 27:27

The Lord’s Supper The Lord’s church observes the Lord’s Supper on every Lord’s day
