Who is to be blessed when the "cup of blessing" is lifted heavenward? 1 Corinthians 10:16 - Is not the cup of thanksgiving for which we give thanks a participation in the blood of Christ?

The focus of the Lord's Supper is on our heavenly Father and His Son, Jesus, and not us. As Pastor Ralph wrote in his commentary, 'However, too often we partake of the Lord's Supper for our own blessing rather than as a service of worship and blessing towards God. We must take care not to be self-focused, but focused on Christ as we partake of the Lord's Supper. It is a feast of remembrance, of proclamation, of blessing God, and of thanksgiving towards him. ' Who is to be blessed when the "cup of blessing" is lifted heavenward? Our Heavenly Father who has provided us with all blessings and especially by sending us His Son in order for Him to die for our sins.

JoanG Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 The focus on the "cup of blessing" is to be a blessing to the Lord. It is also to be a thanksgiving to God. For all of the great things that He does for us on a daily basis. We have been taught to be very self-centered during our worship. We have been taught that all of the blessings are for us. We have the idea that worship is there to amuse us or entertain us. We really need to put it back into proper perspectives that God should be the key element that we are there to worship.
