Moriah AG celebrates Holy Communion on the first Sunday of each month. This is one way to remember our Lord Jesus' death on the cross for us. The Lord Jesus instructed his followers to remember him through the symbols of bread and wine. This act of remembrance is called Holy Communion or the Lord's Supper.
Christians who believe in Jesus Christ participate in Holy Communion. Holy Communion is a sacred time for reflection and prayer that nourishes our souls by faith.
1 Corinthians 11:24-26 says
"For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, 'This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.' In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, 'This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me.' For whenever you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes."
In Holy Communion, we remember who Jesus is. When we take the bread and drink from the cup we remember He is God's Son, Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord.
We remember who we are We are sinners in need of forgiveness. It's important to take some quiet moment to confess our sins to God and ask Him for forgiveness.
We remember what He did Holy Communion helps us to remember that Christ died for our sins. Christ loves us so much that He died for our sins so that we would no longer be separated from God.
Holy Communion reminds us that Jesus gave His life, represented by the bread on the cross for our sins. Jesus also bled on the cross, the cup represents his blood. He died and was buried but He rose from the grave to live again so that we could with God forever in heaven.
We remember that He is coming back One day Jesus is coming back in a wonderful way, we do not know the exact time when He will return. While we wait, we remember Him through Holy Communion.
