Luke 22: Communion...Threatened

The importance of the death, burial, and resurrection can be seen in the Lord’s Supper—communion—which the early church observed every Sunday (Acts 2:42; 20:7-11; 1 Corinthians 11:23-29). The word “communion” has to do with fellowship between the worshipper and God as well as fellowship among all true worshippers. The scene of verses 14-23 is one that includes this idea. But the fellowship must be understood and maintained by worshipers who treat one another as brothers and sisters outside of worship. To do otherwise will threaten this communion (verses 24-30). And that will cut us off from God.
