OBEY JESUS BY REMEMBERING HIM!
Apparently people in the early church considered it important to
remember Jesus daily [Ac 2:46]. Over the years soon people were
complaining (in historical documents) that people were only
remembering Jesus this way once a month and then some less
frequently. Remembering Jesus by taking the bread to remember
His body and the cup of the fruit of the vine to remember His blood
is one of the few specific church related commands Jesus gave us
when He told us to “DO THIS TO REMEMBER ME” [Lk
22:19 IC]{1 Co 11:24,25}. . Some developed a manmade doctrine
to scare people away by suggesting a person might be unworthy to
remember Jesus. Jesus never suggested such an idea. Some also
make up teachings to prevent children from remembering Jesus
with the bread and the cup even though Jesus clearly stated “LET
THE LITTLE CHILDREN COME TO ME, AND DO NOT
FORBID THEM” [Lk 18:16 NKJ]. Be encouraged to obey Jesus
and remember Him the way He said, as often as possible. Do you
remember Jesus with the bread and the cup frequently?
