The Lord's Supper, or Communion, is part of our worship and fellowship together. Christ gave it to us as a reminder of His suffering and death for our sins. Unfortunately, many take Communion without much throught as to its significance. This should not be so in your case. Now that you are a believer, the Lord's Supper will take on new meaning. It will become for you a beautiful time of communion with Christ. When you accepted Christ as your personal Savior, His blood cleansed you from all sin. You are now pure and holy in God's sight. All this was possible because of the Cross. It was our sins that nailed Jesus there. The Lord's Supper is a time to remember Christ's sacrifice and to thank Him for His infinite love. As you sit in His presence with faith in your heart, He is able to minister to your every need.

Read Matthew 26:26-28. What do the bread and the cup represents? For what reason did Christ shed His blood? Read 1 Corinthians 10:16-17. What are we sharing together when we participate in Communion? Why did the early Christians all eat from the same loaf? Read 1 Corinthians 11:27-32. What happens when someone takes the Lord's Supper in an unworthy manner? Why does the Lord discipline those who fall short in this way? How can you avoid this discipline?
