Pentecost Sunday, The Sending Of The Promised HELPER

Video Introduction: https://www.instagram.com/reel/Csw8s2NgF2C/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

We come to the Celebration of Pentecost and remember Jesus’s promise John 14:26 "But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you.

 27 "Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful.

John 16:7 ¶ "But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you.

Though the HOLY SPIRIT is promised in the New Testament, HE has been active throughout the Narrative and was the Active member of the TRINITY in inspiring the writing of the Biblical Narrative.

So, we must note, this expanded Mission of the HOLY SPIRIT preordained is NOT a Change in HIS Mission of Awakening Dead Souls to the Truth of the Gospel, as in the Old Testament the protection and documentation of the Narrow Path that can be followed from Genesis to the Birth of Jesus is fully recorded in detail.

Now that the path was fulfilled, there was no longer a need for the Narrow and step for step path, and the SPIRIT’S role increases to open even Our Dead Souls eyes.

First Reading

Old Testament Reading

Jonah 3:4-10 

4 Then Jonah began to go through the city one day's walk; and he cried out and said, "Yet forty days and Nineveh will be overthrown."

 5 ¶ Then the people of Nineveh believed in God; and they called a fast and put on sackcloth from the greatest to the least of them.

 6 When the word reached the king of Nineveh, he arose from his throne, laid aside his robe from him, covered himself with sackcloth and sat on the ashes.

 7 He issued a proclamation and it said, "In Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles: Do not let man, beast, herd, or flock taste a thing. Do not let them eat or drink water.

 8 "But both man and beast must be covered with sackcloth; and let men call on God earnestly that each may turn from his wicked way and from the violence which is in his hands.

 9 "Who knows, God may turn and relent and withdraw His burning anger so that we will not perish."

 10 When God saw their deeds, that they turned from their wicked way, then God relented concerning the calamity which He had declared He would bring upon them. And He did not do it.

(NAS95)

This is the WORD of The LORD

Response By All: Thanks Be To GOD!

The LORD’S Prayer & Apostles Creed

Matthew 6:9 ¶ And Jesus said "In this manner, therefore, pray:

Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name.

 10 Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven.

 11 Give us this day our daily bread.

 12 And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors.

 13 And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.

Christian What Do You Believe?

I believe in God the Father Almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth:

And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord,
Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost,
Born of the Virgin Mary,
Suffered under Pontius Pilate,
Was crucified, dead, and buried:
He descended into hell;
The third day he rose again from the dead;
He ascended into heaven,
And sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
From thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Ghost;
The Holy Catholic Church;

The Communion of Saints;
The Forgiveness of sins;
The Resurrection of the body,
And the Life everlasting.
Amen.

Pentecost Homily 

As we have discussed previously though to those trained to “Preach the WORD of GOD” it might be the first time they ever heard this but it is NOT the Pastor’s words that open the eyes of our Congregations but the HOLY SPIRIT alone who awakens our dead souls (through regeneration), opens our eyes and allows us to see the full context of the Bible even though the weekly fragmentist misses the point completely. I invite you to click on the link and go to the webpage section on Fractured Fairy Tales;  https://sites.google.com/view/itsallaboutjesus-paulwallace/learning-to-listen-again

Our readings and homily though a repeat of one I post yearly for Pentecost should remind us of something not taught in Seminaries, that we Pastors are indeed preaching to Tombstones (we Pastors too are Tombstones (sadly many still are and are Pretending)Save the LORD’S Awakening us too from the Dead)as by the Will of the FATHER, through the Full Purchase Paid by the SON Jesus Christ, and the Full Regeneration of the HOLY SPIRIT are we saved, IN SPITE of our Pastors NOT because of them.

With the readings as long as they need to be and woven into this piece, I will not get in the way of the HOLY SPIRIT’S work, with my humble comments so they will be real short.

We will notice that Dr. Luke the writer of Acts tells us the time of the day that this occurred 9:00AM as the third hour is marked from 6:00AM.

Next we notice that the languages being spoken by these Galilean Fishermen are recognizable Languages NOT Gibberish!!!  This is extremely important as it clearly refutes many misunderstandings of speaking in lounges as the speaking is must be able to be interpreted by others. 

1Co 14:27 If anyone speaks in a tongue, it should be by two or at the most three, and each in turn, and one must interpret;

 28 but if there is no interpreter, he must keep silent in the church; and let him speak to himself and to God.

 29 Let two or three prophets speak, and let the others pass judgment.

For example it is as if we walked out the door having never learned the language we spoke perfect Japanese, as proven by the Japanese in the audience understanding.

We see Peter explain that they are not drunk as it is only 9:00AM, if you go through the Bible you will find the drinking was done after work or at night and yes they drank see Boaz, see David and Uriah, see Noah implied. It is also important to note for those who claim the wine of that day was not the alcohol based fermented drink of today, a popular fabrication of those denominations who like to forbid everything including dancing, another think David did, and yet the honest reading of the scriptures is that they truly were drunk, and it wasn’t on straight grape juice!

Next we see Peter proclaim the Gospel using a very Novel approach and one I would suggest bluntly that we are well served in putting Sermons together as Peter, Stephen, Paul, used scripture to speak on Scripture, not the latest Theologians book, that may leave more questions than answers. 

One other thought, as with the Message brought without heart for the audience by Jonah, and the half message brought by Peter, it is the HOLY SPIRIT who opens eyes, and not how long we teach. In fact the LORD "uses" this great message (hint the LORD alone opens eyes) to convert more than 120,000 persons "Yet forty days and Nineveh will be overthrown."

But the Purpose of Pentecost from the Start to the end of the Church was a sign just like Baptism that the Triune GOD, as promised by our LORD Jesus Christ will be there personally to Guide the Church.

Pentecost is another of the Celebrations in the Church Year that should NEVER be overlooked.

Acts 2

1 ¶ When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place.

 2 And suddenly there came from heaven a noise like a violent rushing wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.

 3 And there appeared to them tongues as of fire distributing themselves, and they rested on each one of them.

 4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit was giving them utterance.

 5 ¶ Now there were Jews living in Jerusalem, devout men from every nation under heaven.

 6 And when this sound occurred, the crowd came together, and were bewildered because each one of them was hearing them speak in his own language.

 7 They were amazed and astonished, saying, "Why, are not all these who are speaking Galileans?

 8 "And how is it that we each hear them in our own language to which we were born?

 9 "Parthians and Medes and Elamites, and residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,

 10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the districts of Libya around Cyrene, and visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes,

 11 Cretans and Arabs--we hear them in our own tongues speaking of the mighty deeds of God."

 12 And they all continued in amazement and great perplexity, saying to one another, "What does this mean?"

 13 But others were mocking and saying, "They are full of sweet wine."

 14 ¶ But Peter, taking his stand with the eleven, raised his voice and declared to them: "Men of Judea and all you who live in Jerusalem, let this be known to you and give heed to my words.

 15 "For these men are not drunk, as you suppose, for it is only the third hour of the day;

 16 but this is what was spoken of through the prophet Joel:

 17 'AND IT SHALL BE IN THE LAST DAYS,' God says, 'THAT I WILL POUR FORTH OF MY SPIRIT ON ALL MANKIND; AND YOUR SONS AND YOUR DAUGHTERS SHALL PROPHESY, AND YOUR YOUNG MEN SHALL SEE VISIONS, AND YOUR OLD MEN SHALL DREAM DREAMS;

 18 EVEN ON MY BONDSLAVES, BOTH MEN AND WOMEN, I WILL IN THOSE DAYS POUR FORTH OF MY SPIRIT And they shall prophesy.

 19 'AND I WILL GRANT WONDERS IN THE SKY ABOVE AND SIGNS ON THE EARTH BELOW, BLOOD, AND FIRE, AND VAPOR OF SMOKE.

 20 'THE SUN WILL BE TURNED INTO DARKNESS AND THE MOON INTO BLOOD, BEFORE THE GREAT AND GLORIOUS DAY OF THE LORD SHALL COME.

 21 'AND IT SHALL BE THAT EVERYONE WHO CALLS ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED.'

 22 "Men of Israel, listen to these words: Jesus the Nazarene, a man attested to you by God with miracles and wonders and signs which God performed through Him in your midst, just as you yourselves know--

 23 this Man, delivered over by the predetermined plan and foreknowledge of God, you nailed to a cross by the hands of godless men and put Him to death.

 24 "But God raised Him up again, putting an end to the agony of death, since it was impossible for Him to be held in its power.

 25 "For David says of Him, 'I SAW THE LORD ALWAYS IN MY PRESENCE; FOR HE IS AT MY RIGHT HAND, SO THAT I WILL NOT BE SHAKEN.

 26 'THEREFORE MY HEART WAS GLAD AND MY TONGUE EXULTED; MOREOVER MY FLESH ALSO WILL LIVE IN HOPE;

 27 BECAUSE YOU WILL NOT ABANDON MY SOUL TO HADES, NOR ALLOW YOUR HOLY ONE TO UNDERGO DECAY.

 28 'YOU HAVE MADE KNOWN TO ME THE WAYS OF LIFE; YOU WILL MAKE ME FULL OF GLADNESS WITH YOUR PRESENCE.'

 29 "Brethren, I may confidently say to you regarding the patriarch David that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day.

 30 "And so, because he was a prophet and knew that GOD HAD SWORN TO HIM WITH AN OATH TO SEAT one OF HIS DESCENDANTS ON HIS THRONE,

 31 he looked ahead and spoke of the resurrection of the Christ, that HE WAS NEITHER ABANDONED TO HADES, NOR DID His flesh SUFFER DECAY.

 32 "This Jesus God raised up again, to which we are all witnesses.

 33 "Therefore having been exalted to the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, He has poured forth this which you both see and hear.

 34 "For it was not David who ascended into heaven, but he himself says: 'THE LORD SAID TO MY LORD, "SIT AT MY RIGHT HAND,

 35 UNTIL I MAKE YOUR ENEMIES A FOOTSTOOL FOR YOUR FEET."'

 36 "Therefore let all the house of Israel know for certain that God has made Him both Lord and Christ--this Jesus whom you crucified."

 37 ¶ Now when they heard this, they were pierced to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, "Brethren, what shall we do?"

 38 Peter said to them, "Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

 39 "For the promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off, as many as the Lord our God will call to Himself."

 40 And with many other words he solemnly testified and kept on exhorting them, saying, "Be saved from this perverse generation!"

 41 So then, those who had received his word were baptized; and that day there were added about three thousand souls.

 42 ¶ They were continually devoting themselves to the apostles' teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.

 43 Everyone kept feeling a sense of awe; and many wonders and signs were taking place through the apostles.

 44 And all those who had believed were together and had all things in common;

 45 and they began selling their property and possessions and were sharing them with all, as anyone might have need.

 46 Day by day continuing with one mind in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they were taking their meals together with gladness and sincerity of heart,

 47 praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord was adding to their number day by day those who were being saved.

(NAS95)

This is the WORD of the LORD!

ALL: Thanks Be To GOD!!!

The LORD’S Table

1Co 11:23 ¶ For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which He was betrayed took bread;

 24 and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, "This is My body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of Me."

 25 In the same way He took the cup also after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me."

 26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until He comes.

 27 Therefore whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner, shall be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord.

 28 But a man must examine himself, and in so doing he is to eat of the bread and drink of the cup.

 29 For he who eats and drinks, eats and drinks judgment to himself if he does not judge the body rightly.

TRINITY Sunday

This week I ask if you could please Pray for Your Pastor, as I too can be short with a fellow driver that had two unfortunate driving miscues, but my reaction to this Soul shows I too as the Apostle  struggle with the old nature, and ask Your Prayers, as I was fully wrong to express my New Jersey opinion of His driving ability, though it may have been accurate, it was far from loving, and caused me to wonder why I still don’t treat others with the Love and forgiveness Jesus does me.

Thank you so much in advance for your prayers.

First Reading

Genesis  1

1 ¶ In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

 2 The earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters.

 3 ¶ Then God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light.

 4 God saw that the light was good; and God separated the light from the darkness.

 5 God called the light day, and the darkness He called night. And there was evening and there was morning, one day.

 6 ¶ Then God said, "Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters."

 7 God made the expanse, and separated the waters which were below the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse; and it was so.

 8 God called the expanse heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, a second day.

 9 ¶ Then God said, "Let the waters below the heavens be gathered into one place, and let the dry land appear"; and it was so.

 10 God called the dry land earth, and the gathering of the waters He called seas; and God saw that it was good.

 11 Then God said, "Let the earth sprout vegetation: plants yielding seed, and fruit trees on the earth bearing fruit after their kind with seed in them"; and it was so.

 12 The earth brought forth vegetation, plants yielding seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit with seed in them, after their kind; and God saw that it was good.

 13 There was evening and there was morning, a third day.

 14 ¶ Then God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night, and let them be for signs and for seasons and for days and years;

 15 and let them be for lights in the expanse of the heavens to give light on the earth"; and it was so.

 16 God made the two great lights, the greater light to govern the day, and the lesser light to govern the night; He made the stars also.

 17 God placed them in the expanse of the heavens to give light on the earth,

 18 and to govern the day and the night, and to separate the light from the darkness; and God saw that it was good.

 19 There was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.

 20 ¶ Then God said, "Let the waters teem with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open expanse of the heavens."

 21 God created the great sea monsters and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarmed after their kind, and every winged bird after its kind; and God saw that it was good.

 22 God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth."

 23 There was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.

 24 ¶ Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind: cattle and creeping things and beasts of the earth after their kind"; and it was so.

 25 God made the beasts of the earth after their kind, and the cattle after their kind, and everything that creeps on the ground after its kind; and God saw that it was good.

 26 ¶ Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."

 27 God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

 28 God blessed them; and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over every living thing that moves on the earth."

 29 ¶ Then God said, "Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree which has fruit yielding seed; it shall be food for you;

 30 and to every beast of the earth and to every bird of the sky and to every thing that moves on the earth which has life, I have given every green plant for food"; and it was so.

 31 ¶ God saw all that He had made, and behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.

Second Reading

Mt 3:1 ¶ Now in those days John the Baptist *came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea, saying,

 2 "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

 3 For this is the one referred to by Isaiah the prophet when he said, "THE VOICE OF ONE CRYING IN THE WILDERNESS, 'MAKE READY THE WAY OF THE LORD, MAKE HIS PATHS STRAIGHT!'"

 4 Now John himself had a garment of camel's hair and a leather belt around his waist; and his food was locusts and wild honey.

 5 Then Jerusalem was going out to him, and all Judea and all the district around the Jordan;

 6 and they were being baptized by him in the Jordan River, as they confessed their sins.

 7 ¶ But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming for baptism, he said to them, "You brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

 8 "Therefore bear fruit in keeping with repentance;

 9 and do not suppose that you can say to yourselves, 'We have Abraham for our father'; for I say to you that from these stones God is able to raise up children to Abraham.

 10 "The axe is already laid at the root of the trees; therefore every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

 11 "As for me, I baptize you with water for repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, and I am not fit to remove His sandals; He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

 12 "His winnowing fork is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clear His threshing floor; and He will gather His wheat into the barn, but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire."

 13 ¶ Then Jesus *arrived from Galilee at the Jordan coming to John, to be baptized by him.

 14 But John tried to prevent Him, saying, "I have need to be baptized by You, and do You come to me?"

 15 But Jesus answering said to him, "Permit it at this time; for in this way it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness." Then he *permitted Him.

 16 After being baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove and lighting on Him,

 17 and behold, a voice out of the heavens said, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well-pleased."

Response: All Glory To YOU LORD Christ

Homily The TRINITY, ONE GOD Forever And Ever

First it is important to make clear the word Trinity is NOT in the Bible that said the understanding of a Triune GOD sure is and is crystal clear!

Next we ask ourselves is the Trinity a New Testament understanding, or is it also found in the Old Testament understanding too?

Well by now I would hope that a resounding Both Testaments or as I believe the One Testament that is the Whole Bible cover to cover.

Jesus gives the Great Commission at the end of Matthew, and before of course Matthew was written, basing this understanding on the Old Testament.

Today’s readings will a small Sample of the Old Testament text, and two New Testament texts

 3 And one called out to another and said, "Holy, Holy, Holy, is the LORD of hosts, The whole earth is full of His glory."

 4 And the foundations of the thresholds trembled at the voice of him who called out, while the temple was filling with smoke.

 5 ¶ Then I said, "Woe is me, for I am ruined! Because I am a man of unclean lips, And I live among a people of unclean lips; For my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts."

 6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a burning coal in his hand, which he had taken from the altar with tongs.

 7 He touched my mouth with it and said, "Behold, this has touched your lips; and your iniquity is taken away and your sin is forgiven."

 Jg 6:11 ¶ Then the angel of the LORD came and sat under the oak that was in Ophrah, which belonged to Joash the Abiezrite as his son Gideon was beating out wheat in the wine press in order to save it from the Midianites.

 Jg 6:12 The angel of the LORD appeared to him and said to him, "The LORD is with you, O valiant warrior."

 Jg 6:21 Then the angel of the LORD put out the end of the staff that was in his hand and touched the meat and the unleavened bread; and fire sprang up from the rock and consumed the meat and the unleavened bread. Then the angel of the LORD vanished from his sight.

 Jg 6:22 When Gideon saw that he was the angel of the LORD, he said, "Alas, O Lord GOD! For now I have seen the angel of the LORD face to face."

The SPIRIT OF GOD (indwells the People of GOD and part of the Creation from the start)

Genesis 1:2 The earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters.

Exodus 31:3 "I have filled him with the Spirit of God in wisdom, in understanding, in knowledge, and in all kinds of craftsmanship,

Exodus 35:31 "And He has filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding and in knowledge and in all craftsmanship;

Numbers 11:25 Then the LORD came down in the cloud and spoke to him; and He took of the Spirit who was upon him and placed Him upon the seventy elders. And when the Spirit rested upon them, they prophesied. But they did not do it again.

Judges 3:10 The Spirit of the LORD came upon him, and he judged Israel. When he went out to war, the LORD gave Cushan-rishathaim king of Mesopotamia into his hand, so that he prevailed over Cushan-rishathaim.

 Judges 6:34 So the Spirit of the LORD came upon Gideon; and he blew a trumpet, and the Abiezrites were called together to follow him.

 Judges 11:29 ¶ Now the Spirit of the LORD came upon Jephthah, so that he passed through Gilead and Manasseh; then he passed through Mizpah of Gilead, and from Mizpah of Gilead he went on to the sons of Ammon.

1Samuel 16:13 Then Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the midst of his brothers; and the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon David from that day forward. And Samuel arose and went to Ramah.

Matthew 3:11 "As for me, I baptize you with water for repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, and I am not fit to remove His sandals; He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

 12 "His winnowing fork is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clear His threshing floor; and He will gather His wheat into the barn, but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire."

 13 ¶ Then Jesus *arrived from Galilee at the Jordan coming to John, to be baptized by him.

 14 But John tried to prevent Him, saying, "I have need to be baptized by You, and do You come to me?"

 15 But Jesus answering said to him, "Permit it at this time; for in this way it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness." Then he *permitted Him.

 16 After being baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove and lighting on Him,

 17 and behold, a voice out of the heavens said, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well-pleased."

Matthew 28:17 When they saw Him, they worshiped Him; but some were doubtful.

 18 And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.

 19 "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,

 20 teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age."

As we have read, The TRINITY Has been without any possible doubt through out existence, and will continue to be, as the whole Foundational Understanding and Life itself directed by GOD.

We will see, and clearly understand that each attribute of GOD fulfills THEIR unique and important role not as separate beings, as we are NOT Polytheist, but as One GOD, FATHER, SON, & HOLY SPIRIT, YET all ONE PERSON, or Monotheism.

TRINITY Sunday reconfirms our total belief in ONE GOD, in THREE PERSON’S FATHER Who Ordains All Things, The SON Who Redeems in Full, Judges, and Advocates, The HOLY SPIRIT who Awakens us Spiritually From the dead, and Walks, and grows us to be more and more Christ Like.

May GOD Bless You All, In Christ Alone, Pastor Paul

Hymn For The Feast

And Can It Be

The LORD’S Table

1Co 11:23 ¶ For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which He was betrayed took bread;

 24 and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, "This is My body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of Me."

 25 In the same way He took the cup also after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me."

 26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until He comes.

 27 Therefore whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner, shall be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord.

 28 But a man must examine himself, and in so doing he is to eat of the bread and drink of the cup.

 29 For he who eats and drinks, eats and drinks judgment to himself if he does not judge the body rightly.
