“Do this in remembrance of me.” – Luke 22:19 (ESV)
📜 The Command
At the Lord’s Supper, Jesus commanded His followers to continually remember His sacrifice through the bread and cup.
🕊 Theological Depth
- Remembrance – Communion looks back to the cross, proclaims Christ in the present, and anticipates His return (1 Corinthians 11:26).
- Covenant Meal – The bread and cup confirm our participation in the New Covenant (Jeremiah 31:31–34).
🗝 Word Study
- Do – Greek: poieō (ποιέω, poy-EH-oh) – to practice regularly, to carry out continually.
💎 Diamond of Truth
The Table is a reminder that grace was costly. Each time we eat and drink, we preach Christ crucified.
💬 Reflect and Respond
- Do I approach communion with gratitude and reverence?
- Am I proclaiming His death until He comes?
