070114 Morning Revival Service - 1 Corinthians 11:23-34


The entire recording linked to this article's title is of the Sunday morning worship service at Dexter during our community-wide spiritual revival was different for us after having heard Elston McLain’s messages on Friday twice and on Saturday once. His message centers around the unique reconciliation experience in the eucharist. We thank him and his church, Center Grove United Methodist Church, for sharing his time, talent and message with us.

The scripture is as follows:

23 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered to you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread: 24 And when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me. 25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do you, as oft as you drink it, in remembrance of me. 26 For as often as you eat this bread, and drink this cup, you do show the Lord's death till he come. 27 Why whoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. 28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup. 29 For he that eats and drinks unworthily, eats and drinks damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body. 30 For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep. 31 For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged. 32 But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world. 33 Why, my brothers, when you come together to eat, tarry one for another. 34 And if any man hunger, let him eat at home; that you come not together to condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I come.
