—1 Corinthians 11:23-34
by: Gem Barton.
On the same night of Jesus’ betrayal and crucifixion, He participated in the Passover meal, which is often referred to as the Last Supper, with His disciples. Matthew 26:26 tells us that Jesus took bread, broke it, and gave it to His disciples saying, “Take, eat; this is My body.” In today’s passage, the Corinthians were being reminded that every time believers partake of communion, we are partaking of Christ’s body and blood. They were also reminded that communion should not be taken lightly, as it is being done in remembrance of our Lord’s suffering for us.
