Bible Question:
Reformer Joe, I sincerly appreciate your reply to my question. Your knowledge and understanding are truly inspirational and helpful. I wonder if you could elaborate on your conclusion: "That is why I believe that I am partaking of the divine life of Christ through the sacramental union between the sign (bread and wine) and the things that they signify (the body and blood of Christ)." What do you mean by 'partaking of the divine life of Christ'? thank you |
Bible Answer: kjv.1 Corn.11:29 for he that eateth and drinketh unworthy, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not decerning the Lord"s body. This is done to comemorate the death of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. This a memorial to his death.and we know He is not dead He is alive, but 1 Corn.11:25 part c as oft as ye drink it , in remembrance of me. Now the important thing is this, we are not supose to drink this unworthy, meaning we are to be forgiven of our sins and when it is time for us to part take of this great event we are to examine ourselves to make sure that we are worthy to part take of the memorial of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. jus to make it a little more plain , we are not to live any kind of life and then partake of this, and this is an personal thing, that we must work out our own soul salvation, then examine ourselves to see that we are pleasing in the sight of God and that we are following his instructions to the letter. meaning the bible. John 14:6 Jesus said I am the way the truth and the life: no man coneth to the father, but by me. you see Jesus died for my sins and your sins.God is so good and merciful who would"nt want to serve a God like my God. |
