The Lord's Table

The Lord's Supper. Emile Cailiet, a converted agnostic doctor of philosophy in Paris, in his book, Journey into Light, which recounts his discovery of Christ, says the journey to salvation must ultimately lead to the Lord's table. "It is there the luminosity of the Presence comes into full glow. Indeed, the Lord's table becomes a unique medium of His Presence to those who partake of the bread and wine, thereby being incorporated into His body, and showing His death and His coming in remembrance of His triumphal sacrifice." The Lord's supper consists of:

1. Upward look to God--"He gave thanks."

2. Backward look to Christ--"in remembrance of Him."

3. Inward look to self--"examine oneself."

4. Outward look to the world--"show His death."

5. Forward look to heaven--"till He come."
