John 6:51-57
From a biblical point of view, Lord's Supper has deep theological and spiritual meaning. Jesus tells His disciples that they are to observe this ordinance in remembrance of Him. It is a time to remember what Jesus did for us, and every time we take it, we proclaim the death and return of our Lord.

· It is a process, not an act.
Making a decision, being baptized and receiving the Lord’s supper does not automatically give you an abundant life

· Abiding Presence of Christ ... abides in Me, and I in him
· Living Because of Christ ... will live because of Me
