1 Corinthians Explanation of the Text

Jesus thus fulfills Jeremiah’s prophecy that God himself would provide a “new covenant” for his people that would involve the forgiveness of their iniquity and that he would “remember their sins no more” (Jer 31:31–34).

The blood covenant between both parties usually signifies both parties were committed to the treaty. Jesus’ death speaks of his person commitment to the new covenant.

The simplicity of the Lord’s Supper eliminates social, economical, and racial devisions. We all eat the same bread and drink of the cup.

Remember to look forward

Proclaim the historical event of our salvation. We are remembering our baptism.

The passover status of the Lord’s Supper conveys the truth of blessings and curses.

The exodus and covenant. Those who trust Jesus are blessed. Those who don’t trust God are cursed.

We are preaching salvation until Jesus returns. We are keeping a short account of our sins.

Remember to look within

We are not disciplined forever. God doesn’t discipline us out of disgust. He disciplines us because he wants to spare us greater pain.

Remember to look around
