Communion (The Lord's Supper) - 11

The Scriptures established Communion as an ordinance to be celebrated until Jesus comes. The Lord’s Supper consists of the elements – bread and the fruit of the vine – which represent the broken body and shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ and serve as symbols that remind us of our unbroken covenant with Him. In addition, healing and restoration are released as believers receive the Communion elements and by faith appropriate the redemptive work of Christ those elements represent. (See Matthew 26:26-28; Luke 22:19-20; John 6:48-51; Acts 2:42-46; 1 Corinthians 11:17-34.)
