The Lord's Table is designed to make us remember what our Lord accomplished on Calvary. Our text tells us, "For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death till He comes." (1 Corinthians 11:26) Why do we bother to take the Lord's Table? There are several reasons. The first has to be because the Lord commands us to participate in the Lord's Supper. Another very important reason is because it pictures for us something very important. The first Lord's Supper marked for us the initiation of the new covenant in Christ's blood. Each of the accounts of the Lord's Supper in the New Testament mention this covenant. We read here in 1 Corinthians 11:25 these words, "In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, 'This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.'" Why is this important for us to understand when we come to the Lord's Supper? It is important for two reasons: I. Our Relationship with God Is Always Based On a Covenant II. In Christ, God Made a New Covenant with Us.
