COMMUNION |
|
|
The Lord’s Supper is a ritual instituted by Jesus
leading up to the crucifixion. It took place on the night of the
Passover meal when the God-man chose two elements – bread and wine –
to represent His body and blood. The apostle Paul set forth how
communion should be conducted. If we would judge ourselves, it
wouldn’t be necessary for God to judge us, yet that is exactly what
occurs when we eat and drink in an unworthy manner. Interestingly,
the God-man also instituted the less popular tradition of foot
washing in the same setting with the promise that the New Testament
church would understand later on. Judas Iscariot loved Jesus even
though he betrayed the Son of God to the Jewish religious
leadership. What was his reasoning? To force the God-man into using
supernatural power to re-establish Israel, drive out the Romans, and
conquer the world. Fortunately, the Kabbalistic dream later
described in the Book of Revelation did not materialize and remains
on hold even today. |
