Because every time you eat this bread and drink this Cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes "(1 Corinthians 11: 26)

Bible in a year: Judges 19-21

Try to pay attention to the attitude of the Church, including ourselves, while following the Lord's Supper. Some people do it in a routine and without flavor. In fact, some people prefer the taste of wine and the types of addresses the bread that is used, which may not suit his taste. Inevitably, in many churches, Holy Communion almost lost its meaning.
The Church at Corinth had also experienced the same thing. They perform routine Supper without living up to its meaning (verse 20). Paul reminds, the Lord's Supper are ordered by Christ himself, and every time we eat the bread and drink the wine, we're preaching exactly narnya the death of God (verses 23-26). This death will never be the same with the death of anyone. Not death due to not being able to resist the death pick up, but the death is planned and fulfilled as a manifestation of a great love. Tercabik body and blood gushing tells the story of human sin of luputnya the wrath of God by Christ's sacrifice. Through Holy Communion, the Church of God proclaim his death until he comes again (verse 26).
Therefore, we should not be raising the bread and the Cup with the paltry, especially arrogant attitude. We are the sinners who received the gift of fellow forgiveness through the death of Jesus. Banquet table facing each time, let this news fills us with a sense of amazement sanubari and respect to the Lord. Many people have yet to understand and experience his works. We should introduce the meaning of the bread and the Cup to them. --PBS
