Lame Cherry: Sacrament of the Altar: Benefits

As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.

In thee examination of Dr. Martin Luther's Catechism concerning Communion, the question is asked in what benefits are there in partaking of Communion.
Communion as has been shown is the anniversary of the marriage or it is the physical remembrance of Christ's action in the Spiritual Marriage or Spiritual Covenant of restoring the Faithful back to eternal Life with God.

Jesus spoke on the night He was betrayed, this do in remembrance of me. What though is the benefit of remembering Jesus?

Jesus in the Last Supper was fulfilling the Law of the Passover, as that is when He laid down His Life literally was on the eve of the slaughter of the Passover lamb first observed in Egypt before the Exodus. In the children of Israel observing the Passover, they were remembering the Angel of the Lord who passed over all the houses which had the blood of the lamb on the door frame. Those the Angel did not pass over, were visited in the first born from children to livestock was slaughtered in Egypt.
This was the line of life and death and Jesus the Christ was that line then, as He was the Angel of the Lord administering Judgment. Egypt had every opportunity to observe the Law as Moses presented, but they instead after horrendous plagues still clung to their world superpower leader in Pharaoh for protection and life.

God mandated that the Israelites remembered the Passover and to educate their children as to the meaning of it, in order to remind them not only of the life and death deliverance the Law provided, but also that a Messiah would one day appear to fulfill all the Law for their Salvation.
Remembering the Passover had the benefit of disciplining the Israelites to Life and not death.

Communion is a reminder of the unbreakable Spiritual bond the Faithful have with the Father through Jesus the Christ. It is the reality that each Christian is already dead with Christ and raised with Christ. We are no longer the offspring of Adam who died under the penalty of sin, but the Spiritual offspring of Christ under Grace of Life.

II Corinthians 5

15 And that He died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto Him which died for them, and rose again.
16 Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.
17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

The benefit of Communion is the same benefit a spouse has with their spouse. You have access to all the privileges of that contract from house, to bank account to children legally yours under the law. In Christ, Communion affirms, as a court affidavit does to a legal fact, that Christ's Body and Blood were given and shed for the cancelling of sins or debt.

Think of it this way too in Communion is the wedding ring, which says, "I belong to someone else with all the legal protections and liberty to sex to again bank accounts" and that protects me from your sinful sexual disease and your IRS audits, because I am obeying the law.

What is the benefit of this eating and drinking?
These words, “Given and shed for you for the forgiveness of sins,” show us that in the Sacrament forgiveness of sins, life, and salvation are given us through these words. For where there is forgiveness of sins, there is also life and salvation.

St. Paul reveals the dichotomy of Christ and His children which is obvious when the Christian observes the lunacy of those who deny Christ. To those who repent, Christ and Christians are the welcome aroma of Life, but to those rejecting Christ and hating Christians it is the stench of their coming death.

Good News Translation
For those who are being lost, it is a deadly stench that kills; but for those who are being saved, it is a fragrance that brings life. Who, then, is capable for such a task?

This is the benefit which is the Peace of Christ for His children and the torment of satan in this existence of those who will not accept the benefits of entering into the Contract with Life with Christ. Christ is the same match and flame, but one group smells the smoke and realizes it means a hearth with warmth and food, while the other realizes they have no chimney and the smoke means their house is burning down.

II Corinthians 2

15 For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish:
16 To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things?
17 For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.

In Communion we remember our sins are forgiven Faithfully by Jesus the Christ, because we are in an unbreakable contract of Life with Christ. Jesus paid all of our debts. He washed us. He clothed us. He brought us home to the mansion with the locked gaits where we will live forever. The benefit is we are no longer homeless, but now legal owners of the mansion.

Communion is our profession of our Rights in Christ Whom we confess as our Lord.
