“And he took bread, gave
thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body given for
you; do this in remembrance of me.” In the same way, after the supper he
took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured
out for you. But the hand of him who is going to betray me
is with mine on the table.” Luke

countless Christians into a closer relationship with
God.
