Classic Christianity – The Lord’s Supper – Part 3 – 4-02-26

~ Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect. Matthew 5:48

Only perfection will do. And Jesus had to do that for us, when we place Faith in Him. He comes to live inside of us, and gives us His Holy Spirit to give us Life. For that Life is in Him, and He is in us, and we are in Him together as the church is made one in Christ Jesus. And the church is the body of Christ that is to be celebrated as the Lord’s Supper, not as people celebrate it today, but it was to be a picture of Jesus in us, and his body and blood we partake of when we come to Him by faith. Today’s Lord Supper celebrations are perversions of the original intended meaning in the word of God. Very few understand the Truth of this in the word of God, and they pervert the meaning to be some sort of introspection of sins, and to clean yourself up. Think about it folks, how much sense does that even make if God is no longer counting your sins against you and remembers your sins no more? So Satan has brainwashed the Christian world into believing this lie, along with other lies, that subvert the True Gospel. Stop partaking of the lies, and stand in Truth. Call them out on it, even if it is your pastor. Because this is just the tip of the iceberg in regards to the lies that are taught in Christianity today.

…..

And a certain ruler asked Him, saying, “Good Teacher, having done what, will I inherit eternal life?”
And Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good, except God alone. Luke 18:18,19

~ “Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.” 1 John 5:12

~ Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life; the one believing in Me, even if he should die, he will live. And everyone living and believing in Me shall never die, to the age. Do you believe this?” John 11:25,26

Pray to God:

Do you really want to know the WHOLE Truth of what is going on today?

Lord Jesus, teach me the truth of the world today and give me the wisdom to know the truth and identify the lies of the devil. Thank you God.”

~ “And what did James say? If you kept them all and in your entire life, just violated one, you have violated all of them. How many want to stand before God saying how obedient you’ve been at the law? What. With that as a criteria, I don’t think so. And so he nailed the law to the cross with its regulations that was against us and stood opposed to us. He took it away, nailing it to the cross. Now, folks, in doing that, he neutralized the HEBREW who had the law. The gentile never did have the law. He neutralized us all down to one level. All have sinned and all have fallen short of the glory of God, and there’s only one way to salvation, and that’s through faith in Christ, Jesus. So he neutralized us and brought us all down to one level. And so he said, I’m sending you to them to open up their eyes than to turn them from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God. How come? So that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are set apart by faith in Him. Christ took away our sins the next day, remember John said, look, the Lamb of God, who does what guys takes away the sins of the world. Takes it away from where. Now as guys see people say, take away sin. Doesn’t seem like I’ve taken away from me. How many of you know that he hadn’t taken it away from you? In practice, who do you take it away from? The eyes of God so that God is not dealing with you and me on the basis of sin today, sins of the world have already been judged. The verdict was guilty. The punishment was what death and who took it? Jesus. How much of it? All of it. Only one sin attributable to man, according to Jesus, the sin and the rejection of the Son of God, that the world’s sin is unbelief in me. And the only question God will ever ask any man on earth is, what did you do with my Son? No man will ever go to hell because of his sins, only the sin of the rejection of the Son of God.” ~ Bob George

And what did James say? If you kept them all and in your entire life, just violated one, you have violated all of them. How many want to stand before God saying how obedient you’ve been at the law? What. With that as a criteria, I don’t think so. And so he nailed the law to the cross with its regulations that was against us and stood opposed to us. He took it away, nailing it to the cross. Now, folks, in doing that, he neutralized the HEBREW who had the law. The gentile never did have the law. He neutralized us all down to one level. All have sinned and all have fallen short of the glory of God, and there’s only one way to salvation, and that’s through faith in Christ, Jesus. So he neutralized us and brought us all down to one level. And so he said, I’m sending you to them to open up their eyes than to turn them from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God. How come? So that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are set apart by faith in Him. Christ took away our sins the next day, remember John said, look, the Lamb of God, who does what guys takes away the sins of the world. Takes it away from where. Now as guys see people say, take away sin. Doesn’t seem like I’ve taken away from me. How many of you know that he hadn’t taken it away from you? In practice, who do you take it away from? The eyes of God so that God is not dealing with you and me on the basis of sin today, sins of the world have already been judged. The verdict was guilty. The punishment was what death and who took it? Jesus. How much of it? All of it. Only one sin attributable to man, according to Jesus, the sin and the rejection of the Son of God, that the world’s sin is unbelief in me. And the only question God will ever ask any man on earth is, what did you do with my Son? No man will ever go to hell because of his sins, only the sin of the rejection of the Son of God.

Who watched a little excerpt last night on _____ ______, nice guy, you can’t get much worse if you were to name A sinner than _____ _______. You know what he talked about in the end of the interview, that he had come to know Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior, and that he was a child of the living God. Do you believe that ______ _______, who cut people up and cannibalism and murdered people, he’s in heaven. Yeah, the best thing that those prisoners ever did for _____ ______ was kill him so that he could go into the presence of Christ.

Now, people say, Oh, that’s not fair. I’ve been so good. And Jesus said, I’m not interested in how good you’ve been or how bad you’ve been, it’s how dead you are. I’m here to cure death, and the only solution to death is life, and the only life available to you is the resurrected life of my Son, Jesus. And when you refuse him, you remain dead. That’s the good news of the gospel, guys. So Christ was sacrificed, how many times? Once, to take away the sins of many people, and he will appear a second time not to bear sin, but to bring salvation for those waiting for him, why isn’t when Jesus comes back, he coming to bear sin? Why isn’t he going to do it? Well, he’s already done it. Why isn’t he going to come to get to offer more forgiveness for us? Because there isn’t any more forgiveness without the shedding of blood. There is what? No forgiveness. If there was any further forgiveness to be executed on your and my half behalf, if we truly believe what the Bible says, that without the shedding of blood, there’s no forgiveness, what would Jesus have to do? Die again. Do you want him to do that? I have people, oh, they just keep asking God all the time, please forgive me. Please forgive me, because it makes me feel good. So in other words, you want to crucify the Son of God all over again so you can feel good. You ought to think how good it feels to just wake up in the morning knowing you’re a forgiven person. You ought to test that one sometime and see how good it makes you feel that I’m not good because I’ve done something. I’m free because HE did something, and we’ve reversed it and made this out of a stupid religion whereby we go to the confession booth, or you go to your first John one nines, or you go back to your days of atonement, or you go, we’ve made a religion out of what Jesus said, I finished it. I did it. Not you. There is no more forgiveness to be executed. He cried out from the cross, what? It’s finished now, when are we going to believe that? When are we going to believe it? Said, you know that he appeared so that he might do what take away our sins. And in him is what? There isn’t any sin in him. And so my dear children, he said, I write this to you so that you won’t sin. But if anyone does, we have one who speaks to the Father in our defense, Jesus Christ, the righteous one. And he is the one who turns aside God’s wrath, taking away our sin, and not only ours, but the sins of the entire world.

Remember this: atonement covered sins, Christ took away sins. What is the only conclusion that you can come to as a born again believer who has come into a relationship with the living, Risen Christ? Because what was provided for then is only received in his resurrection. You don’t come forward to get forgiveness. You already are forgiven. You come forward to get life. And that’s why it said in Romans that while we were yet enemies, that means lost guys, while we were yet enemies we were that means past tense, already done, reconciled to God through the death of his Son. How much more having been reconciled, that being now an accomplished fact, shall we be saved by his what his life? That’s the importance of Easter. That’s the importance of this Sunday. It’s the day that man received life called eternal life. Why is it eternal? Because of the eternal consequence of what he did on the day of preparation, took away eternally the cause of spiritual death. Is that good news, guys? That’s the good news of the gospel.

Now I want us to turn over to Corinthians, in the 11th chapter of Corinthians. And if it brings us to what is the meaning of this supper, what is the meaning of this event that we do, that we call the Lord’s Supper? Well, what I’m going to do is to read from the Scripture, not from our tradition, not from our Baptist teaching or charismatic teaching or anything else, but from the Scripture, the only place that talks about the Lord’s Supper. I’m going to read from it. Paul says in the following directives, I don’t, I have no praise for you. I don’t think he had much praise for anything. The Corinthian church, to be real honest, it’s probably the most unholy group of people that ever lived on the face of the earth. And that’s, that’s where you had to go minister.

In the following directories. I have no praise for you for your meeting to do more harm than good in the first place. I hear that when you come together as a church, there are divisions among you, and to some extent, I believe it, no doubt there have to be differences among you to show which of you have God’s approval. But when you come together, is it not the Lord’s Supper you eat? For as you eat, each one of you goes ahead without waiting on anybody else. One remains hungry, another gets drunk. Now, Don’t you wonder how you got drunk on that grape juice? It’s amazing, and we’ve built that into doctrine, oh my Lord, would never touch wine. You know the passage, do not get drunk on grape juice, wherein is excess? That a little bit of grape juice makes your heart happy. Come on, people. Grow up. Grow up. Quit acting like morons in regard to these things, God says that we’re not to go out and abuse alcohol and that type of thing. But where in the world does he say that your lips are never supposed to touch it? And I’m not advocating drinking. I don’t like to drink. I drank enough to last a lifetime. That’s not the issue. It’s an issue of quit perverting scripture. And what it says in Scripture is, don’t you have homes to eat and drink in? There’s a solution. You’re coming together and. One remains hungry, another gets drunk.

Now what is he saying here? Well, he’s saying you’re getting ready to come and have the Lord’s supper together as a body of Christ. And the Lord’s Supper has a picture to it. There’s a picture that God wants us to see. And so you come into the room, and you’ve got the food and everything in here, and all of this room over here comes and looks at the table, and it’s all empty. All the food’s gone, all the wine’s gone. And here this group over there, sitting over there, fat, dumb and happy, and they’ve eaten all the food, drank up all the booze, and you’re coming for supper. And he’s saying, You guys are not thinking about the body of Christ. All you’re thinking about is yourself. You’re gluttons. That’s what he’s saying here. Don’t you have homes to eat and drink? And he says, or do you despise the Church of God? Do you despise your brothers and sisters in Christ so that you’re sitting there and happy that all the food’s gone because you filled your belly? He said, humiliate those who have nothing. What shall I say? Shall I praise you for this? He said, certainly not.

I’m going to go down to verse 27 Therefore whoever eats the bread and drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner? What is the unworthy manner in which the Corinthian church was taking the Lord’s Supper? What was the unworthy manner? Do what? Not waiting on your brother, eating up all the food, drinking up all the wine before the rest of the people got there. Now, what have we taught in the church today? That you have to make yourself worthy so we dim the lights, play the organ and sit there in maudlin introspection trying to get all of your sins confessed as you celebrate the new covenant, which says their sins and lawless acts, I’ll remember no more, and where these have been forgiven, there’s no longer any sacrifice for sins, and we’re sitting there forgetting that and drinking the cup of the new covenant, and don’t have a clue what the New Covenant says. Pervert, talk about perversion of truth.

So he says in here, whoever drinks or eats the bread, drinks the cup in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body. If they’ve eaten up all the bread, drank up all the wine, who are they sinning against? The body of Christ. Are you guys all with me, the body of Christ? You’re the body of Christ. We’re all all he said, I’m going away, and when I do, I’m going to send my spirit to live in you, and you’re going to be my what? My body. Well, how, how’s this Lord’s supper going to have any meaning to it? If all the bread is gone on, all the all the wine’s been consumed, you’re not looking out after the body. And that’s what he says. Whoever eats the bread and drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy matter will be sinning against the body and the blood or the life of the Lord, and where does the life of God live? In you. You’re You’re sinning against the entirety of what I came to do. I made you a part of the body of Christ, and my life came to live within you. A man ought to examine himself before he eats. Bread and drinks a cup. What do you mean? Model an introspection? or examine himself, what’s it talking about here? Examine myself. Am I being a pig, or am I waiting on the body? Am I thinking about my brothers, or am I thinking only about getting my own body filled? Examine yourself. It isn’t sitting around and modeling introspection. It’s saying, Am I doing right, or am I doing wrong? For anyone who eats and drinks without recognizing the body of the Lord, eats and drinks judgment on himself, judgment from who folks? How do you know that that this is judgment from the body and not judgment from God? Because our sins have already been judged, have they not? Folks, it’s amazing to me. I’ve said and taught these things to people, and people are sit there as dead as a hammer and don’t believe a word of it here, it’s right in the Bible, sit there as dead as a mule and don’t believe it, because their tradition doesn’t tell me so. That’s sick, and we need to get rid of this tradition stuff and start going to the Word of God and saying, What does the word of God say in regard to these issues? And then start following them if we’re going to walk by what? Faith, which is the only thing that pleases God. It’s amazing how stubborn people can be when they’ve learned Baptist theology or Presbyterian theology or Methodist theology and boy, anything, don’t you tell me anything outside of those. Of course, none of them agree with each other, so somebody’s right or wrong. Examine yourself before you eat the bread and drink the cup. Anyone who eats and drinks without recognizing the body eats and drinks judgment on himself from the body. That’s why many of you are weak and sick, and a number of you have fallen asleep. That word is passed out.

What do you do when you eat too much and drink too much? What do you do? You go to sleep. You fall asleep, you pass out. I’ve seen some of you do that while I’m teaching without drinking wine. That’s what happens. You gorge yourself. Get there and drink too much wine. What were you going to do? What you do on Sunday, the head bobbers.

If we judged ourselves, we wouldn’t come under judgment, judgment from WHO? From the body. If you judged your own actions, you wouldn’t come under judgment from the rest of the body. When we’re judged by God, which he is judging this action, or he would be writing it, we’re being disciplined, and we’re not being condemned with the world. This Book is a Book of Discipline. That’s what’s called discipleship. And every time I if I was a Corinthian and I was sitting here, and this is what I had been doing, this book would discipline me. I’d read that and say, Brother, I’ve been acting like a moron, according to God, I need to cut this out, and we need to start as a body of the Christ, recognizing the entire body, wouldn’t you, that’s what it’s for.

So my brothers, here’s the conclusion to this guys. So my brothers, when you come to eat, wait for each other. There’s a conclusion to this. Wait for each other. And if anyone’s hungry, he should eat at home, so that when we meet together, it may not result in judgment. That’s the Lord’s Supper according to the Bible. That wasn’t the Lord’s Supper according to the Christian church I grew up in, or the Presbyterian Church or but that’s what the Lord’s Supper is in regard to the Bible.

Now let’s see what this picture is there for. This was on the night, day before Jesus was being betrayed, and so he was leaving his disciples with this picture. It’s a visual aid, and he was using this piece of bread as an example, if you were to look for the body of Christ 2000 years ago, you would have had to go back to Israel and look for Jesus of Nazareth, wouldn’t you, and there you would have found the body of Christ. But what did he say? He said, this body is going away, but be glad it’s going away, because when I do, then I’m going to send my Spirit into you, and you’re going to be my body. In other words, right now, my body is confined to Israel, but in a few days, my body’s going to be all over the world at the same time, because you are going to be my body? Do we realize that we’re the part of the body of Christ? And so he used that as an example, as a picture, this is my body. It didn’t mean that this loaf was his body. It didn’t mean that when you eat it, that you’re eating Jesus. It’s an example. It’s an example. And he said, this represents my body, which is going to be broken for you. I says, Take and eat.

Now, as you and I pass this bread around, if we can get our guys to come up and help with this, please. As we do this, this example becomes an example of the day that you became a part of the body of Christ, and we had one loaf. And now, as you participate in that, just as you came to Christ individually, not collectively, not in a group, you came one at a time. That’s a picture of the day that you came to Christ one at a time. So as you take the bread to you, it’s a picture of the day you became a part of the body of Christ. When you see your neighbor, it’s a picture when he became a part of the body of Christ. And you begin to see this all going all the way around, of all of us from different backgrounds, color, creed, how God touched our hearts individually and made us into this marvelous Body of Christ. That’s what this is the picture of. So as we pass this bread to one another, and you partake of that, as you pass this to your neighbor. Why don’t you communicate to them what we know is true, and that is that, Bob, we belong to Christ and we belong to one another. Stephen, we belong to Christ, we belong to one another. Charlie, we belong to Christ, we belong to one another. Bob, we belong to Christ, and we belong to one another.

Take the bread individually, just as you came to Christ individually. Don’t wait on anybody else. You didn’t wait on somebody for salvation. You came to Christ on your own. To picture when God reached down to you, somebody, either through the Bible or communicated the good news of the gospel to you, and you responded. Could have rejected, but you responded and became a child of God, and your life changed, probably the greatest miracle that you and I will ever experience in our lives is the day we were born again. And when you think of the implication of that day, that’s the day that you inherited eternal life, and you stop to think of how important that is. It is the most important day in your life when you were born again, of the Spirit. There’s no greater favor that we can do for a loved one than to show them how they can have eternal life. And you don’t get it through religion, you get it through Jesus, and it’s all him and none of us.

Now we started with one loaf. Where is it? It’s gone. Where is it? It’s in you. That’s a picture of Christ in you, your hope of glory. That’s what the Lord that’s what God gave us that illustration for. It’s a visual aid of what took place in his life. Now, where is the body of Christ? Well, it’s here. It’s all over the world, quite frankly, of whoever’s in Christ, Jesus, that is the body of Christ. Again, we’ve kind of brought it down many times, that’s church membership. No, it’s his membership. We’re members of the Body of Christ, Jesus. How did we get to be that? Not by joining something here, but by being joined to Christ, Jesus, and him being joined to us.

So we read that what I received from the Lord, I also passed on to you the Lord Jesus, on the night that he was betrayed, he took bread, and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, This is my body, which is for you. So do this in remembrance of me. In the same way. After this 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. Now, what is he said? This is the cup of the what? The New Covenant. When did the New Covenant go into effect in the book of Hebrews? When do How many of you have wills? When were you? When will your will go into effect on the day that you die, not a day sooner? And so Jesus taught under the Old Covenant, the covenant of the law, and in so doing, buried us under it. Man had studied the law enough to think, Well, I haven’t committed adultery. And you had the shufflers, you had all kinds of things taking place. And Jesus said, You’ve missed the whole point, because I get underneath the skin, and I deal with things under the skin. The law deals with outward. I deal with the inward. And he buried them. You see guys statements like, be perfect. You know, is that encouraging? If God came up to you and said, Why don’t you be perfect, Roy, how perfect, Lord as perfect as Father in heaven, that’s all we’ll do. Isn’t that encouraging? Just how you going to pull that off? Well, Jesus, why did he say that the barriers to show you you can’t. When I say I can’t, I’m ready for the cross and resurrection, you can say, well, I’ve not committed adultery. Say, if you ever looked at a woman’s lust in your heart, well, yeah, well, then you’ve committed adultery. Say, Well, that didn’t make sense. I don’t care what makes sense or not. That’s what I say. If I’m looking on the inside, you’re looking on the outside. And that guy says, I think I’ve had it said, yeah, you have now you’re ready for the cross.
