OUR SACRED COMMUNION WITH JESUS OUR GOD

As they brought Jesus the third cup of wine, the "cup of blessing," He arose from the couch and, taking the cup in his hands, blessed it, saying:
"Take this cup, all of you, and drink of it. This shall be the cup of My remembrance. This is the cup of the blessing of a new Dispensation of grace and Truth. This shall be to you the emblem of the bestowal and ministry of the Divine Spirit of Truth. And I will not again drink this cup with you until I drink in new form with you in the Father's Eternal Kingdom."The apostles all sensed that something out of the ordinary was transpiring as they drank of this cup of blessing in profound reverence and perfect silence. The old Passover commemorated the emergence of their fathers from a state of racial slavery into individual freedom; now the Master was instituting a new remembrance supper as a symbol of the new dispensation wherein the enslaved individual emerges from the bondage of ceremonialism and selfishness into the spiritual joy of the brotherhood and fellowship of the liberated faith sons of the living God.
When they had finished drinking this new cup of remembrance, the Master took up the bread and, after giving thanks, broke it in pieces and, directing them to pass it around, said:
"Take this bread of remembrance and eat it. I have told you that I am the bread of life. And this bread of life is the united life of the Father and the Son in One Gift. The Word of the Father, as revealed in the Son, is indeed the bread of life."When they had partaken of the bread of remembrance, the symbol of the Living Word of Truth incarnated in the likeness of mortal flesh, they all sat down.
This supper of remembrance, when it is partaken of by those who are Son-believing and God-knowing, does not need to have associated with its symbolism any of man's puerile [childish] misinterpretations regarding the meaning of the Divine Presence, for upon all such occasions the Master is really present. The remembrance supper is the believer's symbolic rendezvous with Jesus Christ Michael. When you become thus spirit-conscious, the Son is actually present, and his spirit fraternizes with the indwelling fragment of his Father. [The pure spirit Light of God within each and every mortal here on earth.]
