The Body and Blood of the Lamb

God's provision for His New Testament people is likewise the body and blood a Lamb!

The Lamb of God is the Lord Jesus Christ.

John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.

Under the Old Testament, the blood of the lamb provided for sin: the body of the lamb provided healing.

Psalm 105:37 He brought them forth also with silver and gold: and there was not one feeble person among their tribes.

Psalm 103:2,3 Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;

Many Christians do not understand all God's benefits of the New Covenant. In communion they realise the purpose of partaking of the cup: this deals with sin; when confessed and forsaken it is forgiven; yet they fail to perceive the purpose in partaking of the bread. Eating the bread deals with sickness: healing is the children's bread.

Matthew 15:26, 27 But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and cast it to dogs. And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters' table.
