Have the most blessed day of your\r\nlife thus far! (There are even better ones in store.)<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe past Coffee Break began with my sharing the fact that I have walked with\r\nthe Lord for virtually every day of my life, and that I cannot think back to a\r\nday or time when I haven't known the Lord. When I stated, \"I can say with\r\nfull assurance and conviction, and yet in deep humility, that I have not walked\r\na sinful life,\" some folks didn't read the following addition.\r\n\"That's not to say that I have not committed sin.\" I went on to say\r\nthat I have indeed failed the Lord miserably at different times. In fact, I\r\nhave committed sins. That's not the same as walking or living a sinful life.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe apostle Paul wrote, <em>\"For all have sinned and come short of the\r\nGlory of God.\"<\/em> (Romans 3:23)<br>\r\n<br>\r\nYup. Absolutely. Me included. What many folks fail to understand is that\r\nthey've been erased. Those sins don't exist any longer. When I repented and\r\nasked the Lord to forgive me of my shortcomings and failures, He did just that.\r\nWhat's more, He erased them completely from existence by the Blood of the Lord\r\nJesus Christ. You can't find them anywhere.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe fundamental difference between committing sins and walking a sinful life is\r\none's personal relationship with Jesus Christ. If out of 67+ years of walking\r\nwith the Lord, a sum total of three months of that time (and I'm just picking\r\nan arbitrary number) have been engaged in some kind of missing the mark, that's\r\na far cry from \"a sinful life.\" Let's see..... how was it that John\r\nput it?<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<em>\"Whosoever <span class=SpellE>abideth<\/span> in him <span\r\nclass=SpellE>sinneth<\/span> not: whosoever <span class=SpellE>sinneth<\/span>\r\nhath not seen him, neither known him .......... Whosoever is born of God doth\r\nnot commit sin; for his seed <span class=SpellE>remaineth<\/span> in him: and he\r\ncannot sin, because he is born of God.\"<\/em> (I John 3:6, 9)<br>\r\n<br>\r\nWhat is missing from many of our English translations is the tense that occurs\r\nhere in the Greek text. It should be translated like this: <em>\"Whosoever\r\nabides in Him does not willfully and repeatedly sin. Whosoever is born of God\r\ndoes not willfully and habitually commit sin because God's seed remains in him:\r\nand he cannot willfully and repeatedly commit sin, because he is born of\r\nGod.\"<\/em><br>\r\n<br>\r\nDo you see the difference? Good. Now you understand the context of my\r\nstatements. Let's move on.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nOne more thing that needs clarification is my statement in The Table of the\r\nLord VII concerning what happens when we eat of the Bread and drink of the Cup.\r\nThere is a doctrine known as \"transubstantiation\" which teaches that\r\nthe Bread actually becomes the body of the Lord Jesus Christ, and that the Cup\r\nactually becomes His blood. That is not what I am saying, nor should it be\r\ninferred in any way, shape or form. There is a supernatural thing that occurs\r\nwhen we eat and drink at the Table of the Lord, but the supernatural change and\r\ntransformation is that which occurs in us -- NOT the Bread or the Cup!<br>\r\n<br>\r\nAgain, let me clarify: change -- transformation -- in us and of us takes place\r\nat the Table of the Lord ONLY when we believe the Word that Jesus spoke, and\r\nONLY when faith is exercised as we eat. Jesus commanded us to eat of His Table\r\n(and there is a commemorative aspect to this act) for the same reason that He\r\ncommanded water baptism: there is an act of submission on our part to Him, to\r\nHis Word, and to the cleansing, redeeming and restorative nature and character\r\nHe seeks to accomplish in us.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nNow, was that clearer?<br>\r\n<br>\r\nOK! Let's talk about the Bread of Life.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nSeems like I've mentioned this before, but let's go there anyway. Take a look\r\nat Matthew 26. Jesus and His disciples have gathered for the Passover -- the\r\nFeast of Unleavened Bread. They all eat and drink together of the Passover\r\nsupper, after which Jesus takes whole bread (Greek: <span class=SpellE>artos<\/span>:\r\nraised or whole bread) instead of the unleavened bread (Greek: <span\r\nclass=SpellE>azumos<\/span>: flat bread -- no leaven added) of which they've\r\njust been eating, and says, <em>\"Take, eat; this is my body<\/em> (Greek: <em>soma\r\n< <span class=SpellE>sozo<\/span><\/em>: whole, sound, healthy, complete\r\nbody).\" Luke adds the phrase (see Luke 22), <em>\"which is given for\r\nyou.\"<\/em><br>\r\n<br>\r\nAnd what was Jesus giving? He was instructing them to eat of all that He is --\r\nwholeness, soundness, perfect health, completeness in every sense of the Word.\r\nConsider what Jesus said when He was preaching to the multitudes (see Matthew\r\n6:25, 30-33).<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<em>\"Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye\r\nshall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on.\r\nIs not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? Wherefore, if God so\r\nclothe the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into the\r\noven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? Therefore take\r\nno thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal\r\nshall we be clothed? (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek for your\r\nheavenly Father <span class=SpellE>knoweth<\/span> that ye have need of all\r\nthese things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and\r\nall these things shall be added unto you.\"<\/em><br>\r\n<br>\r\nYou're seeing it, I'm sure. This is what Jesus was distributing at the Table:\r\nHimself: <em>\"All these things.\"<\/em><br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe apostle Paul put it like this: <em>\"But my God shall supply all your need\r\naccording to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.\"<\/em> (Philippians 4:19)<br>\r\n<br>\r\nLet's get to some basics concerning what Jesus said (and is still saying\r\ntoday). <em>\"Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you,\r\nMoses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father <span class=SpellE>giveth<\/span>\r\nyou the true bread from heaven. For the bread of God is He which cometh down\r\nfrom heaven, and <span class=SpellE>giveth<\/span> life unto the world. And\r\nJesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never\r\nhunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.\"<\/em> (John\r\n6:32-33, 35)<br>\r\n<br>\r\nQuestion! Why would Jesus make such a point of \"life\" in His\r\nteaching? It's simple really. When Adam and Eve ate of the Tree of the\r\nKnowledge of Good and Evil, they brought death upon the human race. Because man\r\nwas never designed to die in the first place, the imposition of death in our\r\ngenetic structure created an opening for the spirit we know as \"the Fear\r\nof Death.\"<br>\r\n<br>\r\nIn his general epistle to the Hebrews, Paul says, <em>\"Forasmuch then as\r\nthe children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took\r\npart of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of\r\ndeath, that is, the devil; And deliver them who through fear of death were all\r\ntheir lifetime subject to bondage.\"<\/em> (Hebrews 2:13-14)<br>\r\n<br>\r\nIt may seem like I'm getting off-track here, but there is a point to this.\r\nJesus gave us Himself at the Table. Because death is so ingrained into human\r\nthought processes and into the expectations of nearly every person, it is\r\nnecessary that we receive deliverance from a \"death mindset.\" I'll\r\ncome back to this momentarily.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nReturning to Jesus' discourse with the disciples in John 6, He continues: <em>\"Verily,\r\nverily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life. I am\r\nthat bread of life. Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.\r\nThis is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof,\r\nand not die. I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat\r\nof this bread, he shall live forever: and the bread that I will give is my\r\nflesh, which I will give for the life of the world.\"<\/em><br>\r\n<br>\r\nSounds a whole lot like our discussion on death cancellation, doesn't it? And\r\nJesus made statements like this often in His teaching and sharing. Watch what\r\nHe says next! (John 6:53-58)<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<em>\"Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye\r\neat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.\r\nWhoso <span class=SpellE>eateth<\/span> my flesh, and <span class=SpellE>drinketh<\/span>\r\nmy blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. For my\r\nflesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He that <span class=SpellE>eateth<\/span>\r\nmy flesh, and <span class=SpellE>drinketh<\/span> my blood, <span class=SpellE>dwelleth<\/span>\r\nin me, and I in him. As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the\r\nFather: so he that <span class=SpellE>eateth<\/span> me, even he shall live by\r\nme. This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat\r\nmanna, and are dead: he that <span class=SpellE>eateth<\/span> of this bread\r\nshall live forever.\"<\/em><br>\r\n<br>\r\nWow! How do you like that doctrine? If you struggle with it, you're not alone.\r\nThis was intolerable when viewed through the words (not the Spirit) of the <span\r\nclass=SpellE>Levitical<\/span> Law.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<em>\"Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This\r\nis an hard saying; who can hear it? When Jesus knew in himself that his\r\ndisciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you? What and if\r\nye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before? It is the spirit\r\nthat <span class=SpellE>quickeneth<\/span>; the flesh <span class=SpellE>profiteth<\/span>\r\nnothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.\r\nBut there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning\r\nwho they were that believed not, and who should betray him. And he said,\r\nTherefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given\r\nunto him of my Father.\"<\/em><br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe next thing we see among Jesus' disciples is the same thing we see among\r\nreligious people today. <em>\"From that time many of his disciples went\r\nback, and walked no more with him.\"<\/em><br>\r\n<br>\r\nWhy is that? It's because they heard what He said through carnal,\r\ndeath-oriented thinking -- the same thinking molded and shaped by the Serpent\r\nin the Garden when he deceived Eve.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nRemember how John began his gospel? <em>\"In the beginning was the Word,\r\nand the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning\r\nwith God. All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made\r\nthat was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. ....... And\r\nthe Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the\r\nglory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.\"<\/em>\r\n(John 1:1-3, 14)<br>\r\n<br>\r\nLet's see if I can rephrase this so that it becomes clearer.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<em>\"In the beginning was The Word, and The Word was with God, and The\r\nWord was God. The Word was in the beginning with God. All things were made by\r\nThe Word; and without The Word was not anything made that was made. In The Word\r\nwas life; and the life was the light of men.\"<\/em><br>\r\n<br>\r\nTo this we add Paul's revelation in Hebrews 1:2-3: <em>\"[God] hath in\r\nthese last days spoken unto us by his Son [The Word], whom He hath appointed\r\nheir of all things, by whom also He [The Word] made the worlds; Who [The Word]\r\nbeing the brightness of His glory, and the express image of His person, and\r\nupholding all things by The Word of His power, when He had by Himself purged\r\nour sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high.\"<\/em><br>\r\n<br>\r\nThat's the same Word that was made flesh. That's the same Word that was Jesus!\r\nThat's the same Word that Jesus invited us to eat of at His Table. That's the\r\nBread of Life. That's the Bread of Heaven.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThis is that whole bread -- <span class=SpellE>artos<\/span> -- that Jesus gave\r\nus at His Last Supper. Jesus finished Passover. He brought to us the leaven of\r\nthe Kingdom of God. (See Matthew 13:33 and Luke 13:20-21) He was the <em>\"Lamb\r\nthat was slain before the foundation of the world.\"<\/em> (See Revelation\r\n13:8)<br>\r\n<br>\r\nJesus came to do more than simply cancel our appointment with death and remove\r\nthe curse of death hanging over the human race. He came to bring life, health,\r\nwholeness, deliverance, salvation, safety, prosperity, success, ruling and reigning\r\nin life -- and one of the primary ways He has made it available to those who\r\nwill receive it by faith is by our eating of Him. We see Him demonstrating this\r\nin two separate miracles, and I'll come to those momentarily.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nI just referenced this Scripture, but take a look at Matthew 13 where Jesus is\r\nspeaking of the multiplication that takes place with leaven. <em>\"Another\r\nparable <span class=SpellE>spake<\/span> he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is\r\nlike unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till\r\nthe whole was leavened.\"<\/em><br>\r\n<br>\r\nThis parable should have been clear to all -- especially in the light of Jesus'\r\nprevious parable where He says, <em>\"The kingdom of heaven is like to a\r\ngrain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field: Which indeed\r\nis the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among\r\nherbs, and <span class=SpellE>becometh<\/span> a tree, so that the birds of the\r\nair come and lodge in the branches thereof.\"<\/em><br>\r\n<br>\r\nHis parable of the leaven was intended to demonstrate the multiplication that\r\ntakes place when we eat of Him. There is multiplication in every aspect of the\r\nKingdom of God -- and that takes place when we eat at the Table of the Lord.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nRemember Jesus statement to the disciples as they sat at the Last Supper? <em>\"Take,\r\neat; this is my body which is given for you.\"<\/em> Jesus wanted His\r\ndisciples -- and all of us who eat of Him -- to understand that He was\r\nmultiplying all that He was to all who would partake. This is fundamental to\r\nthe whole principle of the Table of the Lord.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nJesus had already demonstrated this multiplication twice. In Matthew 15:29-39\r\nJesus is ministering continually for three days to the lame, the blind, the\r\ndumb, the maimed -- not to mention a host of other diseases and infirmities --\r\nhealing them all. There were some four thousand men, not counting women and\r\nchildren. We can readily estimate a crowd conservatively at 15,000 - 20,000.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nHealing and restoring virtue is flowing out of His being, and He is suffering\r\nno depletion as a result. Seeing that the multitudes were beginning to faint\r\nfor lack of food, Jesus asks His disciples how much food they have on hand.\r\nThey tell him that they have seven loaves of whole bread and a few small\r\nfishes. He instructs the disciples to seat the multitude in an orderly fashion\r\nand proceeds to break apart the bread and the fishes.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThere's an interesting word that occurs in the Greek text of verse 38\r\ndescribing how the people ate. The word is <span class=SpellE><em>chortazo<\/em><\/span>,\r\nwhich literally means: to gorge oneself, to satiate to the full. Folks, these\r\npeople who ate from the broken bread and fish weren't just hungry; they were\r\nfamished, and they gorged themselves on the food to the point where they had no\r\nmore room to eat another bite. THAT's the kind of multiplication Jesus was\r\ndemonstrating.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe event repeats itself not long thereafter just prior to Passover when Jesus\r\nis ministering to a crowd of 5,000 men -- not counting women and children -- a\r\ncrowd easily numbering 25,000 - 30,000. This time the only food available is\r\nfive loaves of barley bread and two small fishes belonging to a young boy in\r\nthe crowd, who gladly offers it to Jesus. Again Jesus breaks the bread and\r\ndivides the fishes, and the disciples distribute to the people. John 6:11 tells\r\nus that the people took as much food to eat as they wanted -- without reservation\r\nor concern for there being enough food. Matthew (14:20) tells us once again\r\nthat the people gorged themselves -- like young calves going after fodder --\r\nuntil they were totally satisfied.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThat's precisely what Jesus wants to give us at His Table: utter, complete and\r\ntotal satisfaction. This kind of satisfaction (the kind that nourishes\r\ncompletely) doesn't come by any other means than by eating of the Lord Jesus\r\nChrist -- the Word made flesh, the Word made digestible, ready for assimilation\r\ninto our beings, spirit, soul and body.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThis kind of satisfaction is the kind that lasts and lasts and lasts -- through\r\neternity! There's no such thing as too much of Jesus in us. By the same token,\r\nHe can never run out of distributing Himself, His character, His likeness and\r\nimage into our beings. The more we eat of Him, the more change takes place. The\r\nmore we eat of Him, the more we are transformed into the very essence of who He\r\nis!<br>\r\n<br>\r\nIf you aren't already, begin eating of the Lord Jesus Christ daily at His\r\nTable.
