MATTHEW
26:26-29
26
And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it; and He
gave to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is My body.
27 And He took a cup, and gave thanks, and gave to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; 28 for this is My blood
of the covenant, which is poured out for many unto remission of sins. 29 But I say unto you, I shall not drink henceforth
of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in My
Father's kingdom.

CORINTHIANS 10:16; 11:20-34
16
The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not a communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not a communion of the body of Christ?
11:20-34
20 When therefore ye assemble yourselves
together, it is not possible to eat the Lord's supper: 21 for in your eating each one of you taketh before
other his own supper; and one is hungry, and another is drunken. 22 What, have
ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and put
them to shame that have not? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you? In
this I praise you not. 23 For I received of the Lord what which also I
delivered unto you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which He was betrayed
took bread; 24 and when He had given thanks, He brake it, and said, This is My
body, which is for you: this
do in remembrance of Me. 25 In
like manner also the cup, after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in
My blood: this do, as
often as ye drink it, in remembrance of Me. 26 For as
often as ye eat this bread, and drink the cup, ye proclaim the Lord's death
till He come. 27 Wherefore
whosoever shall eat the bread or drink the cup of the Lord in an unworthy
manner, shall be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord. 28 But let a man
prove himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and drink of the cup. 29 For he
that eateth and drinketh, eateth and drinketh judgment unto himself, if he
discern not the body. 30 For this cause many among you are weak and sickly, and
not a few sleep. 31 But if we discerned ourselves, we should not be judged. 32
But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we may not be
condemned with the world. 33 Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, wait one ye for another. 34 If any man is hungry, let
him eat at home; that your coming together be not unto judgment, And the rest
will I set in order whensoever I come.
