Series: At the Table
Sermon: Table Manners
“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 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 this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.”
1 Corinthians 11:23-26 NIV
INTRODUCTION: It is important to pass faith to the next generation!
“For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you..."
Three Table Manners:
Remember Jesus' Sacrifice...
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.”
-1 Corinthians 11:23b-24
Rejoice in Relationship...
“In the same way, after 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.””
-1 Corinthians 11:25
Respond with Thankgiving...
“So then, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord. Everyone ought to examine themselves before they eat of the bread and drink from the cup.”
-1 Corinthians 11:27-28 NIV
Conclusion: As we gather at the Lord's Table this Thanksgiving season, let us be thankful!
