  2. 1 COR. 11:23-32 • THERE ARE 2 ORDINANCES GIVEN BY JESUS THAT ARE TO BE OBSERVED BY ALL TRUE CHRISTIAN CHURCHES. • 1. BAPTISM • 2. THE LORD’S SUPPER

  3. QUESTIONS THAT HAD BEEN ASKED • 1 COR. 7:1—”NOW FOR THE MATTERS YOU WROTE ABOUT…” • 8:1---”NOW ABOUT…” • 11:3---”NOW …” • 11:17---”I HEAR…” • 12:1---”NOW ABOUT SPIRITUAL GIFTS…” • 16:1---”NOW ABOUT THE COLLECTION…”

  4. 6 QUESTIONS • PAUL SEEMS TO BE ANSWERING 6 QUESTIONS THAT WERE ASKED BY THE CORINTHIANS.

  5. 1. WHAT? • 1. THE LORD’S SUPPER (1 Cor. 11:20, only here). • 2. Communion (1 Cor. 10:16, only place in the Bible). • 3. Breaking of bread (Acts 2:42 and throughout Acts). • 4. Eucharist (from the Greek word in 1 Cor. 11:24—”He had given thanks”---eucharistasas).

  6. 2. WHY? • Commanded--- “Do this…” • PAST--- “Do this in remembrance of Me.” (1 Cor. 11:24-25). • PRESENT--- “You proclaim the Lord’s death...” • FUTURE--- “…until he comes.”

  7. 3. WHEN? • “Whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup” (1 Cor. 11:25-26). • “Until he comes” (11:26).

  8. 4. WHO? • Who can come to the Lord’s Table? 1 Cor. 11:27-32. Those who are: • 1. Saved, • 2. Sins confessed, • 3. Symbolism recognized, • 4. United together as one body of Christ (“I hear…there are divisions among you…” (11:18)).

  9. 5. SO WHAT? • So Confess your sins. • Change your behavior. • Recognize the symbolism of the Lord’s body given for you and the cup is the new covenant in His blood. • Judge yourselves and you will not come under judgment or discipline, but never condemnation like the world (11:31-32).

  10. 6. SO NOW WHAT? • Having done those things we should all be united and observe the Lord’s Supper together remembering His death for our sins. • In doing so, properly, “you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes (11:26).” • “Nowhere is God so near to seen as in Jesus Christ: and nowhere is Christ so familiarly represented to us as in this holy sacrament.” Richard Baxter
