Last night in our study on James, we looked at the way that the rich and the poor were treating Communion (see 1 Corinthians 11:17-22). Paul found nothing to commend in the selfishness of the rich who brought plenty to the love feast, but equally took plenty!
It’s always good to focus on what we are really doing when we take Communion and ponder the sacrifice Christ has made for us. Here are two very different songs on the same theme:
Matt Redman’s ‘Remembrance’:
‘Remembrance’, Matt Redman
Charlie Hall’s ‘Mystery’:
‘Mystery’, Charlie Hall
‘Sweet Jesus Christ, my sanity.
Sweet Jesus Christ, my clarity…
Bread of heaven, broken for me…
Christ has died
Christ is risen
Christ will come again.’
