"Don't we take into ourselves the body, the very life, of Christ? Because there is one loaf, our many-ness becomes one-ness ---Christ doesn't become fragmented in us. Rather, we become unified in him." 1 Corinthians 10:16-17 MSG. The Communion meal of bread and wine is a meaningful yet a mysterious part of our life in Yeshua. Communion faciltates our union with Him, our fellowship and partnership(son-ship)with Yeshua. It is a sacred and intimate experience which we enjoy....Daily!(frequently). At the very core of this communion is the miracle of two becoming one, much the same way that a man and woman are united into one flesh through covenant...Marriage! By participation in the bread and wine, the body and the blood of Yeshua, we are united into life with Him. And that's not all! We are also united with each other, our overcoming brothers and sisters who believe!!!Not only vertical(HIM & us) but also horizontal (us with each other)! God's presence always draws us deeper into intimate fellowship with Him and with one another! This Holy partnership will change our nation and the World! COMMUNION THE CENTERPIECE of FELLOWSHIP...Let's do it OFTEN!
Exodus 34:6 And the Lord passed before him and proclaimed, "The Lord, the Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering , and abounding in goodness and truth... In this verse IS the disposition of Messiah. The early church used this important verse to judge prophecy and conduct in the church atmosphere. There were three elders who were in charge of hearing and deciding if what was said and done in that time was in the disposition of Messiah. In this very shaky and explosive time we are living in (exciting & wonderful time I might add) it would serve us well if we would write this verse on the tablet of our heart and in every circumstance, situation we find ourselves apply it rightly and justly. By doing this, we, as the body of Christ, will start looking like the "church" the public has never seen!!!
