Wednesday, Dec 23- 1 Corinthians 11:23-26

23For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread,
-Paul just said what was said to him. That's kind of our job also. Just pass on what we were given.

24and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, "This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me."
-This is a very important event. The one that Paul wants to point out as importance of what was given to him to pass on. We shouldn't forget this event.

25In 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."
-forgetting is often easier than we think. Wish we weren't so forgetful of stuff.

26For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.
-Proclaim is a very vocal word. We should be proclaiming these things so others can see it and know it.
