Communion

A worship song by Third Day. In 1 Corinthians 11:23-26, Paul reminds the Corinthians why they partake of the Communion that Jesus had commanded them to do. "For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, 'This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.' In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, 'This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me.' For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes."

The Communion is an emblem that Christians partake of, in remembrance of Christ, whose body was broken and blood spilled, on the cross for our sins. Some partake of it monthly, some weekly, and some as often as when they meet. While the Communion serves as a reminder, it also serves as a time of reflection on our lives as well. Following v. 26, Paul goes on to explain that "whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord." (v. 27). Therefore, we are to examine ourselves before partaking of the Communion, for there is judgment for those who partake of it in an unworthy manner (v. 28-29). Oh Lord help us not take the Communion lightly. This is Your body, this is Your blood.
