The Significance Of The Lord’s Supper

Passage: Matthew 26:17-30 17 Now on the first day of the feast of unleavened bread, the disciples came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the Passover? 18 And he said, Go ye into the city to such a man, and say to him, The master saith, My time is at hand: I will keep the Passover at thine house with my disciples. 19 And the disciples did as Jesus had given them charge, and made ready the Passover. 20 So when the even was come, he sat down with the twelve. 21 And as they did eat, he said, Verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me. 22 And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto him, Is it I, Master? 23 And he answered and said, He that dipppeth his hand with me in the dish, he shall betray me. 24 Surely the Son of man goeth his way, as it is written of him: but woe be to that man, by whom the Son of man is betrayed: it had been good for that man, if he had never been born. 25 Then Judas which betrayed him, answered, and said, Is it I, master? He said unto him, Thou hast said it. 26 ¶ And as they did eat, Jesus took the bread, and when he had blessed, he brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat: this is my body. 27 Also he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it them, saying, Drink ye all of it. 28 For this is my blood of the new Testament that is shed for many, for the remission of sins. 29 I say unto you that I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine until that day, when I shall drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom. 30 And when they had sung Psalm, they went out into the mount of Olives.
