Celebrating the Lord's supper

Why do we do what we do? So easy to follow patterns handed on from previous generations without really understand their point. This week pastor Brian unpacks what we do when we celebrate the Lord’s Supper . . . Discussion Questions (Week commencing Sunday 24th May 2020) Text: 1 Corinthians 11:17-34 The Corinthians church had a number of issues/problems, that Paul tried to address. What experience have you had of dysfunctional church? When you “look back” in the act of Communion what picture or image or memory most strongly comes to mind? When you “look forward” in the act of Communion—to the nLord’s coming again—what do you most eagerly anticipate? When you “look inward” (self-examination) during the Lord’s Supper do you judge yourself more harshly, or less harshly, than God might do? How does one “eat the bread or drink the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner”? What is the most significant challenge to you from Jesus’ words in Matthew 5:23-24? What did James have in mind in James 1:26-27?
