(Luke 22:19-20) Also, he took a loaf, gave thanks, broke it, and gave it to them, saying: “This means my body which is to be given in your behalf. Keep doing this in remembrance of me.” Also, the cup in the same way after they had the evening meal, he saying: “This cup means the new covenant by virtue of my blood, which is to be poured out in your behalf.
(Romans 6:23) For the wages sin pays is death, but the gift God gives is everlasting life by Christ Jesus our Lord. Adam threw away his wonderful change for perfect life forever for him and his offspring and instead has left us an inheritance of sin, which leads to death. But God has given us a wonderful gift, everlasting life by Christ through the ransom.
Think of a factory with a corrupt manager, everyone suffers because of his malfeasance, but a wealth benefactor restores the factory and all benefit.
(John 3:16) “For God loved the world so much that he gave his only-begotten Son, in order that everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life. Action is required on our part.
(James 2:24) You see that a man is to be declared righteous by works, and not by faith alone.
(James 2:26) Indeed, as the body without spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.
(Revelation 14:1) And I saw, and, look! the Lamb standing upon the Mount Zion, and with him a hundred and forty-four thousand having his name and the name of his Father written on their foreheads. Last year at the memorial, 17,672,443 attended, only 9,105 partook, there are very few of the 144,000 left on earth.
(Revelation 5:10) and you made them to be a kingdom and priests to our God, and they are to rule as kings over the earth.”
(Romans 8:16-17) The spirit itself bears witness with our spirit that we are God’s children. If, then, we are children, we are also heirs: heirs indeed of God, but joint heirs with Christ, provided we suffer together that we may also be glorified together. God’s holy spirit identifies those with the heavenly hope.
(Revelation 14:4) These are the ones that did not defile themselves with women; in fact, they are virgins. These are the ones that keep following the Lamb no matter where he goes. These were bought from among mankind as firstfruits to God and to the Lamb, They have not defiled themselves with false religion, and they are firstfruits, there will be more.
(John 10:16) “And I have other sheep, which are not of this fold; those also I must bring, and they will listen to my voice, and they will become one flock, one shepherd.
(Isaiah 65:21-23) And they will certainly build houses and have occupancy; and they will certainly plant vineyards and eat their fruitage. They will not build and someone else have occupancy; they will not plant and someone else do the eating. For like the days of a tree will the days of my people be; and the work of their own hands my chosen ones will use to the full. They will not toil for nothing, nor will they bring to birth for disturbance; because they are the offspring made up of the blessed ones of Jehovah, and their descendants with them. They see good results.
(1 Corinthians 11:23-24) For I received from the Lord that which I also handed on to you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which he was going to be handed over took a loaf and, after giving thanks, he broke it and said: “This means my body which is in your behalf. Keep doing this in remembrance of me.” The unleavened bread stands for Jesus perfect body.
(1 Corinthians 11:25) He did likewise respecting the cup also, after he had the evening meal, saying: “This cup means the new covenant by virtue of my blood. Keep doing this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.” Red wine symbol of Christ’s blood. Plain red wine, not fortified, like brandy, nothing added, like spices.
How do we show our appreciation?
(Matthew 11:28) Come to me, all you who are toiling and loaded down, and I will refresh you. Invitation from Jesus.
