Luke 22:19-20
And He took bread, gave
thanks and broke it, and gave it to them saying, “This is My body which is
given for you; do this in remembrance of Me. Likewise, He also took the cup
after supper saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is shed
for you.”
The only safety is to live the life hid
with Christ in God. As long as we are consciously there, we are not there. It
is only when we are there that… others are getting the blessings of God through
us and are helping themselves to us, even as Jesus Christ was made broken bread
and poured out wine for us. God cannot make some of us into broken bread
because there are bits of unbaked dough in us that would produce indigestion.
We have to go into the furnace again to be baked properly until we are not more
like Ephraim, “a cake unturned.”
