Memory Selection: “But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.”—l Corinthians 11:28. Lesson Text: * I Corinthians 11:20-34. Continuing our study of Paul’s letter to the young church at Corinth, we find that certain pa gan customs, which had been practiced before they accepted Christ, had crept into their formal worship services. It seems that the church held a “church meal” before their observance of the Lord’s Supper. This was all right in itself, but the common meal was made such an occasion of in dulgence that some even became drunk, and it was not possible to observe the Lord’s Supper with any semblance of meaning and S worship. f In order to instruct the Corinth < ian Christians about the proper J observance of the Supper, Paul | tells them of the revelation he ! received from the Lord as to its | institution and meaning. | On the night of his betrayal, Je i sus instituted a memorial, which < Christians from that day on have \ observed. Bread was used to symbolize his body, and the cup Chowan County Churches EDENTON BAPTIST REV. R. N. CARROLL, Pastor Sunday School at H:45 A. M. Morning worship service. 11 A. M.

OCTOBER Sl.'lM7. was used to symbolize his blood. Both the bread and the wine rep resent Christ’s self-giving on the Cross, his sufferings for the sal vation of the world. Therefore, the elements used in the Supper declare the sacred truths related to the atonement for sin. We are saved by partaking through faith of the benefits of Christ’s sacri fice. The observance of the Lord’s Supper, qr Holy Communion as it is called in some churches, is the most sacred ritual of the church. It is a universal reminder of the Saviour. “Wherever bread is eat en,” said Rev. J. G. Greenbough, “and wherever men may take some simple drink to allay their thirst, and that is much the same as to say, wherever human beings live, there the materials for this highest religious service are found and there the memory is helped to recall and realize once more the divine sufferings which were endured for human sin, and the pitiful dying love which brought the world salvation.” Another thought is suggested by the same author: “Besides this there must have been another thought in the Saviour’s mind to show us that the humblest scenes and the common extractions of life may be made holy, may be made even sublime.
