# Lord’s Supper
|
||||
|
||||
Paul used the words "Lord's Supper" to write about the Passover meal that Jesus ate with his disciples. Jesus did this on the night the Jewish leaders arrested him (see: Matthew 26:17-30; Mark 14:12-26; Luke 22:7-23; 1 Corinthians 11:17-33). During this meal, Jesus broke the Passover bread into pieces and called it his body. He did this to talk about how his body would soon be beaten and killed. He called the cup of wine his blood. He did this to talk about how his blood would soon come out of him as he died as a sacrifice for sin. Jesus commanded that whenever his followers share this meal together, they need to remember his death and resurrection.

Christians in the early church often had a complete meal together when they celebrated the Lord’s Supper. This was a time of fellowship for Christians. It was also called the “love feast” (see: Jude 1:12).

People today often use the word "communion" to refer to the Lord's Supper. It is also called "Last Supper" and “Eucharist.” In present times, some people think that the Lord’s Supper is symbolic. They think it helps Christians remember what Jesus did. Other people think Jesus is present in a special way when Christians celebrate the Lord’s Supper.
