For anyone who eats and drinks without recognizing the body of the Lord eats and drinks judgment on himself. —1 Corinthians 11:29.
The Lord‘s Supper is a precious time for Christians. We remember the incredible sacrifice Jesus made to save us from our sins. We also realize that when Christians gather and take the Supper, we are formed into the Body of Christ, his physical presence on this earth (1 Corinthians 10:17). Whatever happens to one of us matters to the rest of Jesus’ Body. Every time we take the Supper, we must remember the other members of Christ’s Body around us. We must not forget that as we take the bread, we commit to live as Jesus’ bodily presence in the world and give thanks to Jesus. He offered his body for us on the cross to save us from our sins. As we remember these things, we recognize the body of the Lord and honor him for all he has done for us!
