The Lord's Supper



Just as God was supernaturally present at the original 
Passover...so is He supernaturally present in our Lord's Supper.


We do not try to explain how Jesus is present under the bread and wine of the Lord’s Supper, rather we believe, teach, confess and rejoice that He is present. 

We Lutherans let the words of Jesus stand without arguing about their possibility, or trying to explain how they are true. 

As Luther put it so clearly, “We maintain that the bread and the wine in the Supper are the true body and blood of Christ” (SA 111.6) . 

Everyone who communes receives into their mouths the body and blood of Jesus Christ, whether they believe it or not, be they worthy or unworthy.

*The Body & the Blood


True Christians Partake

New International Version
Jesus said to them, "Very truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you.


New Living Translation
So Jesus said again, “I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you cannot have eternal life within you.

St Luther stated that a true Christian will be drawn to the Table of the Lord. These are thoughts for all who read this to think about. I pray that you all stay in close communion with our Lord, Jesus the Christ.
