The Gospels: The Lord's Supper
Matthew 26:21-35
(v.26) Quite a few religions and denominations have gone astray on this verse...Jesus didn't make the bread His body...He broke the bread and told them to eat it. We have to remember that in those days, the two most common things served at meals, were bread and wine. Jesus wanted them to remember His crucifixion every day they ate their supper...nothing more than that.
For if Jesus made the bread into His body, then the work on the cross was not finished, and He suffers still. We must be careful not to go astray from God's Word, and see the truth, not what churches who seek power say.
(v.29) They were doing the Seder for the Passover, and the fourth cup, is the Redemption cup. That will not be complete until we are all in heaven with Him! We will share that fourth cup with Jesus in heaven at the Marriage Supper of the Lamb! Rev 19:9
(v.35) Peter gets a lot of flack when we talk about him, but his heart was pure. What Peter didn't know was that Jesus had to be alone, and He had to die alone.
