6. READ: 1 CORINTHIANS 11:23-26 AND 1 CORINTHIANS 10:14-17
[1 Corinthians 11:23] "For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night He was betrayed, took bread, [24] 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.' [25] 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.' [26] For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until He comes."
[1 Corinthians 10:14] "Therefore, my dear friends, flee from idolatry. [15] I speak to sensible people; judge for yourselves what I say. [16] Is not the cup of thanksgiving for which we give thanks a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ? [17] Because there is one loaf, we, who are many, are one body, for we all partake of the one loaf."
