The Holy Communion

[Ivyc]

The sacrament of Holy Communion is one of the sacraments we keep as Christians. Throughout the entire process we must bear in mind that He blotted out our sins through baptism and the bloodshed at the cross. When He broke the bread during the last supper, he said take and eat this is my body, by faith we believe that we are saved that he once accepted our sins. He took the wine and He represented it to His disciples as His blood, the wine symbolized His blood at the cross. The salvation plan for mankind was completed during the Passover.

Mathew 26:26-28 While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying, take and eat; this is my body. Then he took a cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, saying, Drink from it, all of you. This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.

We eat and drink by believing that He died for our sins, this is a true spiritual rite of faith by those who participate the Holy Communion. Most of us participate in this event without knowing what is it’s really significance just because we are baptized. Does baptism grant one a chance to practice Holy Communion?

Yes it does. One must believe and follow all that Jesus did, as being exemplary. He was baptised before He made Passover feasts with His disciples. Whoever believes that Christ died and resurrected must die in water baptism and emerge/rise with Christ to life. In the like manner, the blood and body are said by Jesus to give life to whoever ate and drank them. It is the body that died and resurrected for our sins and those who eat the body are as clean as he the sinless who bore all for all.
