3. I Corinthians 11:23-28 NKJV
“For I received from the Lord that which I also
delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same
night in which He was betrayed took bread;
and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said,
“Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you;
do this in remembrance of Me.”
In the same manner He also took the cup after
supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My
blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in
remembrance of Me…
4. I Corinthians 11:23-28 NKJV
…For as often as you eat this bread and drink this
cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death till He comes.
Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks this
cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be
guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat
of the bread and drink of the cup.”
6. Most merciful God,
We confess that we have sinned against you in thought,
word and deed, by what we have done and by what we
have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole
heart; we have not loved our neighbors as our selves.
We are truly sorry and we humbly repent.
For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on
us and forgive us; that we may delight in your will, and
walk in your ways, to the glory of your Name.
Amen
8. Eternal God, heavenly Father, you have graciously accepted
us as living members of your Son our Savior Jesus Christ,
and you have fed us with spiritual food in the Sacrament of
His Body and Blood.
Send us now into the world in peace, and grant us strength
and courage to love and serve you with gladness and
singleness of heart; through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
