According to Mathew 26:26-28, what is the sign of the New Covenant?

 

1.        According to the Mathew 26:26-28, The bread and wine are the sign of New Covenant. The bread represents the body of Christ and the wine represent the blood of Christ. taking bread and drinking wine will not change our life but it reminds us what Christ has done for us. the bread and wine are like the wedding ring of bridegroom for his bride.  The ring reminds bride her bridegroom's love, commitment for her. in the same way, the two elements of the lord's supper bread and wine reminds us Christ love and commitment for everyone who partake on it. It is the new covenant of Christ for his people. Some people believe that the blood and body of Christ is literally changed in the wine and bread of the lord's supper whereas others say it is the only symbolled. I believe that it is only symbols.

God never to do that, he will not hide anyone’s sin and evil work but judge it righteously. Habakkuk 1:13 says’ your eyes are too pure to look on evil and you can’t tolerate wrong. God can’t tolerate the wrong. If God tolerate the wrong, he can be unjust gods but he is not like that. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of God’s throne (89:14).   How can God love and judge at the same time?  One can this happening on the cross.

God is not unscrupulous janitor so he judged Christ and destroy the sin saved the...
