Read 2 Peter 1:4 – Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature and escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.
The Lord's Supper, consisting of the elements – bread and the fruit of the vine – is the symbol expressing our sharing the divine nature of our Lord Jesus Christ. Communion is a memorial of his suffering and death.
When we participate in communion we are memorializing the death and resurrection of Christ. We are connecting with His sacrifice and His resurrection. We are declaring our partaking of His divine nature. We are making a statement to the world that we have changed our old life for His new life! We are supernaturally changed to live a life free from the corruption of the old nature. What a privilege! What a declaration we are making to the world of His divine power in us!
