As Jesus commanded, ‘this do in remembrance of me’ (Luke 22:19)
When? ‘upon the first day of the week when they came together to break bread.’ (Acts 20:7 & 1 Corinthians 11:28)
We Practice the New Testament Stewardship
Upon the first day of the week, let everyone lay in store as he has prospered.’ (1 Corinthian 1:2)
Every man according as he purposes in his heart so let him give, for God loves a cheerful giver. (2 Corinthians 9:7)
Living the New Testament Life
‘And they continued in this Apostles doctrine in fellowship, in breaking of bread and in prayer. (Acts 2:42) ‘To grow in grace and knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.’ (2 Peter 1:6-10) ‘Be faithful unto death and receive the crown of life.’ (Revelations 2:10)
Preaching the New Testament Gospel
‘But, if we, or Angels from Heaven, preach any other gospel, let him be accursed.’ (Galatians 1:8) ‘Go into all the world and preach the gospel.’ (Mark 16:15) Why? ‘I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God unto Salvation in everyone that believes.’ (Romans 1:16)
