†. 1Cor 11:25 . . Do this in memory of me
The Lord's Supper (as Protestants prefer to label a communion service) is Christianity's equivalent of a Memorial Day.
†. 1 Cor 11:26 . .Whenever you eat of this bread and drink from this cup, you are proclaiming the death of the Lord until he comes
That's precisely why I sincerely believe communion services should never be held behind closed doors or in secret chambers; but always be observed in full view of the whole congregation, both the saved and the unsaved-- as not only a reminder, but also as an advertisement.
†. Mrk 16:15 . . Go into all the world and preach the gospel to everyone, everywhere.
The Lord's Supper is a pretty good way to comply with that mandate. Communion consists of but two elements; but they speak volumes.
The world of today lacks an adequate concept of justice. The cross' concept is vivid. One look at that bloody spectacle and there's no mistaking that the Bible God's heart is set on retribution.
†. Isa 52:14 . . Many were amazed when they saw him-- beaten and bloodied: so disfigured one would scarcely tell he was human.
The Romans whipped the Lord to within an inch of his life, slapped him around, crowned him with thorns, and drove nails into his palms and his feet. But that was child's play compared to what God did. By the time those hours of darkness lifted; the Lord's own mother would have trouble recognizing him.
†. Luke 23:48 . .When all the people who had gathered to witness this sight saw what took place, they beat their breasts and went away.
Yes, of course they beat their breasts; and you know why? Because they were having trouble catching their breath. The extent of that man's injuries were so horrific that they could scarcely tell he was the same man. If that's what his own Father did to him during those three hours of darkness on the cross; then just think what the Bible's God has in store for people who pooh-pooh its purpose as silly nonsense. At the very minimum; they too will be beaten and bloodied beyond recognition. I suspect that by the time some people's day in court is completed at the Great White Throne depicted at Rev 20:11-15; they will look as though they were dragged through a field of concertina wire and dropped into a cotton gin.

The Lord's Memorial or 'BIRTHDAY' of Earth is what day??
Pss.135
[1] Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the name of the LORD; praise him, O ye servants of the LORD.
[2] Ye that stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God,
[3] Praise the LORD; for the LORD is good: sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant.
[4] For the LORD hath chosen Jacob unto himself, and Israel for his peculiar treasure.
[5] For I know that the LORD is great, and that our Lord is above all gods.
[6] Whatsoever the LORD pleased, that did he in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places.
....
[13] Thy name, O LORD, endureth for ever; and [[thy:seehearspeak memorial]], O LORD, throughout all generations.
But what had happened? verse 2 ibid (or Dan. 7:25)
Ye that stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God???
Eze. 8
[15] Then said he unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations than these.
[16] And he brought me into the inner court of the LORD's house, and, behold, at the door of the temple of the LORD, between the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty men, with their backs toward the temple of the LORD, and their faces toward the east; and they worshipped the sun toward the east.
[17] Then he said unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? Is it a light thing to the house of Judah that they commit the abominations which they commit here? for they have filled the land with violence, and have returned to provoke me to anger: and, lo, they put the branch to their nose.
[18] Therefore will I also deal in fury: mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity: and though they cry in mine ears with a loud voice, yet will I not hear them.

Lets jut post up another verse or two from Inspiration's N.T side of Mark 2.
Christ said...
[27] And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:
[28] Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
And the Adam man was no Jew!
