'Again, there is to be one cup, just as there is one loaf. The church is one body, for Christ is not divided into one hundred or more fragments.'
Robert Letham, The Lord's Supper: Eternal Word in Broken Bread (Philipsburg: P&R, 2001), p. 42
'As we share the same cup, we realise that we have an equal share, a common interest in the same Saviour. We realise that we are all on the same level - just sinners saved by grace. There is a greater unity and sense of oneness.'Edwin Williams, 'The Lord's Supper', Riches of Grace, vii 5 (May 1932), p.214

Hi Jonathan,
Last Sunday, I preached on the importance of participating in The Lord's Supper. I wish I had read your blog and resources first!
Not that I was in error in anyway but your biblical posts on the sacraments are refreshing and have added much more life to my original study and understanding (and reading list!).
I hope you don't mind if I use some of your material during our Breaking of Bread services over the coming weeks!?
Thanks for taking the time to articulate great doctrines in understandable and faithful terms.
Keep on blogging!
Bless you mate,
your theologically challenged friend,
Mark
Thanks Mark! Glad to be of service.
