“For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do show the Lord’s death till He come” (1 Corinthians 11:26).
If we are true Christians, we have the privilege of remembering the Lord every Lord’s day. Of course, we can do it oftener than that too, but it is especially important to do it on Lord’s day—the day He rose from the dead. However, Paul reminded the Corinthians that it was a privilege they would have only until the Lord comes to take us home.
When we are in heaven, we will certainly remember that the Lord suffered for us, but we will not need a loaf of bread and a cup of wine. We will forever be able to see the nail prints in His hands and the spear mark in His side, to remind us of how much He suffered for us.
However, it is a special privilege to be able to remember Him down here in this world. It is here that He suffered for us, and it is here that we can “show the Lord’s death” to the world. If you are truly saved, are you remembering the Lord in His death?
