Should all believers partake of the emblems?
Jesus therefore said unto them, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, It was not Moses that gave you the bread out of heaven; but my Father gives you the true bread out of heaven.
For the bread of God is that which comes down out of heaven, and gives life unto the world." (John 6:32-33) Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believes has eternal life.
"I am the bread of life.
Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died. This is the bread which comes down out of heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die. I am the living bread which came down out of heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live forever: yea and the bread which I will give is my flesh, for the life of the world.
Now after listening to what Christ said about the bread of life which is offered up to give life to the eater, why would anyone reject this bread and pass it by without eating?
Yet, millions of Jehovah's Witnesses do!
Why? Truly it is because of Watchtower doctrine. Why do we choose to listen to the words of religious leaders rather than the words of Christ whom we claim to follow?
Watchtower readers are instructed to "Keep in Step with Jehovah's Organization!"
What happened to the phrase; Be Footstep followers of Christ?
Rather, should we not listen to the one who died for us?
Remember, in judgment,Christ will stand and ask, "Why say LORD LORD and you don't do the things I SAY?" (Luke 6:46)
Please consider what Christ said futher about the Bread which come from God:
"He that eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life: and I will raise him up at the last day" (John 6:54)
As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father; so he that eats me, he also shall live because of me. This is the bread which came down out of heaven: not as the fathers ate, and died; he that eats this bread shall live for ever. "He also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is shed for you. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me" Our heavenly Father gives us 'spirit', through the words he gave to Christ. If we seek God, we will be filled with his word, that is, his 'spirit'. Notice the scripture below:
" It is the spirit that gives life; the flesh profits nothing: the words that I have spoken unto you are spirit, and are life." (John 6:63)
Now friends, this is Christ's command to his followers!
compare:
(Matthew 28:20)
"Go therefore[ and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; "
The wine represents Christ's blood which he shed for the world of mankind. Anyone who would reject Christ's blood, or who passes by the wine, will be judged. Remember, life is in the blood. ( Leviticus 17:11)
Notice what Apostle Paul said here:
(Hebrews 10:29)
"Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace?
Compare John 12:48-
"Christ said, "He who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him—the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day."
Friends, WAKE UP! Listen to Christ and do not listen to anyone who tells you, the bread and wine is not for you.
