The Saviour came into the world to work for


               others. He lived to help and save those who



               are needy and sinful. He wants us to do as He


               did.



               The  disciples  were  now  ashamed  of  their


               jealousy  and  selfishness.  Their  hearts  were


               filled  with  love  for  their  Lord  and  for  one


               another. Now they could give heed to Christ's


               teaching.



               As  they  were  still  at  the  table,  Jesus  took



               bread,  and  gave  thanks,  and  broke  it,  and


               gave to them, saying, “This is My body which


               is  given  for  you:  this  do  in  remembrance  of


               Me.



               “Likewise  also  the  cup  after  supper,  saying,


               This cup is the New Testament in My blood,


               which is shed for you.” Luke 22:19, 20.



               The Bible says, “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.
