Table Fellowship.

Have You Anything Here To Eat?This episode is the audio of a sermon given on the Feast of Annunciation. The prescribed texts for the feast are Acts 1:1-12 and Luke 24:36-53. In the New Testament, table fellowship (koinonia) between Jews and non-Jews is an expression of the oneness of the Gospel. Peter was taught in Acts 10 that he must not call “common” what God has cleansed, and Jesus continued to teach that to his disciples until he was taken up into Heaven. The dietary differences between Jews and Gentiles didn’t matter because the food itself was secondary. The word of teaching cleansed what was considered common. In the table fellowship, the breaking of the bread, Jesus taught his disciples that the real food is the bread of instruction proceeding from his mouth. References Acts 10Luke 24:41 - ἀπὸ τῆς χαρᾶς (“falling away from the joy”)John 10:16Mark 16:19“Fortune Presents Gifts Not According To The Book” performed by Dead Can Dance.“Koran” performed by Delerium.Photo by Mizuno K: https://www.pexels.com/photo/men-with-coffee-13335452/
