Honestly shivers go up and down my spine, what a glorious day this will be in my life. because meeting the man face to face that saved me for my sins I cant wait to celbrate.

It points to the past to remind us all that Jesus Christ was given by God to give the world salvation from sins. It looks to the fuuture because we will share eternal life in the presence of God.

because all will be brought together, all evil will be destroyed and all goodness will prevail. Our thoughts should be to follow Godd wishes to the tee, no variations. Give God the excat obedience that he demands. Be rready for that glorious day when the righteous will reign in the Kingdom of heaven.

There are so many teachings because I feel that this is such an important thing that Christians will be experiencing in the future. people from the four corners of the earth coming together (Never has this happened), All being judged by theie accomplaiments in thier life. Celebrating all together the wonderful banquet for the Lord.

Eating the Bread of Life" nourishes our faith because as we believe and follow in the teachings of Jesus Christ, our faith flourishes. As in a tree, that starts out as a seed and as it ages and learns grows in to a great tree. This is in common with the Words of Institution because of meaning the same thing as we feed on God in our hearts our faith grows, flourishes, and spreads.

Jesus emphasizes this so much because it is so important for us to follow. This is the ultimate thing that we must accomplish in order to reach the Kingdom of Heaven on Judgement Day. The mark of true disciples is to believe and hold to all his teachings. The Twelve disciples followed Christ, people that turned away did so because they did not believe totally in Christ, by not believeing and holding to his teachings.

Taking part in the bread is celebrating with the Lord Jesus Christ for proviiding us with salvation by forgiving sins in the world. I believe the actual meaning is that the Bread is Christ which he will give as a sacrifice. The similarities are that it is the same thing but just said a different times.

"eating the Bread of Life" means in practical terms to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. Nibbling to me would be going part of the way, not believing with all your heart and all your soul. We has Christians know that we must believe TOTALLY, NO DEVIATIONS, EXACTLY AS GOD DEMANDS.

God is eternal, God is everything, God is overflowing with righteousness, goodness, nourishment, cleanliness, purity, and etc. We need to quench our thirst in God by drinking his knowledge, ministering, believing, worshiping,, helping, forgiving, etc. (the List goes on).

I think like in everything else we take many things for granted and feel that at times things are so menial that we could work them out. We can do all things in God, we just need to ask for strength, his guidance, health, really everything with out taking him for granted. God is not a take for granted person, he Demands exact obedience.

yes, in matter of fact right now in my life. I am nourishing my faith daily, learning more and more, ready the word of God, praying with God. I am presently taking (4) Bible study courses, although sometimes it feels overwhelming I am learning so much and my faith in God is strong and is the strongest it has been in years. I am a Leader in a Community Ministry program, I am also equipping myself to join a prison ministry because that is the path the Lord has asked me to follow. So right now especially I need to rely on God as my Shepherd.

Yes, i do believe that Abraham expected God to provide a sacrifice because he stated in his conversation with his son that God would provide a sacrifice. To me this showed full faith in the Lord. Is there any conditions we have to meet in order for God to supply our needs, sure there is. Pretty Basic, believe in God, with all our hearts and all our souls, pretty basic but it is harder then we thiunk.

Wow, what a question but a very good one. There is so much disunity in the churches of today. There are many congregations that Pastor's feel they are "yahweh". Instead of staying within the confines of the "House of God", they get involved with politics, boycots, etc places that I personally feel the church does not belong unless they are specifically affected. I liv on the "Buckle" of the Bible Belt of the United States and there is so much movement in the churches. There are people joining churches but there are more leaving churches. I have spoken to many parishoners from various churches in the area and they will give you a number of registered members, regular members of thier congregations. Many registered members co0nsist of people who havent attended in some years. Disunity is all around us. EVERYWHERE!!!!!!!! Disunity in the churches today is first hand evidence that Satan is working very hard. The Bible verse 1 Corinthians 10:16-17 says it all: "Is not the cup of thanksgiving for which we give thanks a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ? Because there is one loaf, we, who are many, are one body, for we all partake of the one loaf."

"One Loaf" signifies unity and stated very well in both of these verses. in living by what was written for us to follow is our commitment to forgive. These relate to Paul's teaching because partaking and participating in the Body of Christ we need to follow what Jesus Christ wanted. Jesus being crucified on nthe cross for our salvation , in turn when we partake and share in the Lord's Supper we must forgive all and proceed to the table of Jesus Christ with a oure heart and soul.

it is a blessing to Jesus Christ and the wonderful life we are able to share with him.Cup of Blessing is a gesture of thanks for being able to participate in the Bllod of Christ, and reap the most astonishing rewards. When the cup is lifted high (heavenward)
