The Lord’s Supper: Meaning, Purpose, and Practice (1 Corinthians 11:24-28 )
During the Lenten season, we remember Jesus’ final days which marked the pivotal foundations of our faith. The Lord’s Supper, traditionally celebrated every Maundy Thursday, celebrates the communion of God and man through the offering of Jesus’ flesh and blood.
A key event in the Bible is the Lord’s Supper. Also known as the Eucharist or the Holy Communion, this commemorates Jesus Christ’s final night with His disciples. This is the definite institution of Jesus’ sacrifice of his body and blood for the sake of saving humanity.
Starting from the Acts of the Apostles and the Letters of St. Paul, Christians practiced this ritual commemoration to celebrate the Kingdom of God.
During the celebration of the Lord’s Supper, Christians consume consecrated bread and wine as a community. This sacrament is a public banquet first told in the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke.
"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."
