THE LORD’S SUPPER

At the Passover Meal, a new element was introduced. This is called, “The Lord’s Supper”. This was not something that the Lord Jesus had taught earlier. This was entirely new.

“Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, ‘Take this and divide it among yourselves; for I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.’ And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, ‘This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.’ Likewise He also took the cup after supper, saying, ‘This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is shed for you.’”

Luke 22:17-20

1. The Cup

“Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, ‘Take this and divide it among yourselves; for I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.”

a. The giving of thanks to God.
b. The Cup was to be shared among the Disciples.
c. This was the last Supper with His Disciples.
d. The Kingdom of God.
i. There were things to fulfil yet.
ii. He would not eat and drink with them until all things have been fulfilled.

2. An Important Explanation

a. The Bread and its meaning:
i. The Bread represents the Body of the Lord Jesus.
ii. His Body would be given to make redemption possible.
iii. The Lord’s Supper is to be observed in remembrance of His death.
b. The Cup and its Meaning:
i. A New Covenant was given.
ii. The Cup contained wine, which represented the Blood of the Lord Jesus.
iii. His blood would be shed to confirm the New Covenant that was given.

3. A New Covenant was prophesied by Jeremiah the prophet.

“‘Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah— not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, My covenant which they broke, though I was a husband to them, says the LORD. But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the LORD: I will put My law in their minds, and write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. No more shall every man teach his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the LORD,’ for they all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says the LORD. For I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more.”

Jeremiah 31:31-34

a. This was prophesied by Jeremiah the prophet.
b. This was fulfilled by the Lord Jesus Christ.

经文:路加福音 22:17-20

圣餐

在逾越节的筵席,引入了一个新元素。这被称为“圣餐”。这并不是主耶稣先前教导过的。这是全新的概念。

“耶稣接过杯来,祝谢了,说:‘你们拿这个,大家分着喝。我告诉你们,从今以后,我不再喝这葡萄汁,直等神的国来到。’又拿起饼来,祝谢了,就掰开,递给他们,说:‘这是我的身体,为你们舍的。你们也应当如此行,为的是记念我。’饭后也照样拿起杯来,说:‘这杯是用我血所立的新约,是为你们流出来的。”

《路加福音 22:17-20》

3. 耶利米先知预言了一个新约

“耶和华说:‘日子将到,我要与以色列家和犹大家另立新约。不像我拉着他们祖宗的手领他们出埃及地的时候,与他们所立的约,我虽做他们的丈夫,他们却背了我的约。’这是耶和华说的。耶和华说:‘那些日子以后,我与以色列家所立的约乃是这样:我要将我的律法放在他们里面,写在他们心上;我要做他们的神,他们要做我的子民。他们各人不再教导自己的邻舍和自己的弟兄说‘你该认识耶和华’,因为他们从最小的到至大的都必认识我。我要赦免他们的罪孽,不再记念他们的罪恶。’这是耶和华说的。”

《耶利米书 31:31-34》
