The First and Second Great Commandment

The Eucharist is the symbolic or consecrated bread and wine eaten and drunk during the ceremony of Communion by many Christian churches. In a ritualized form, this meal has become a sacrament of many Christian churches, considered to have been established by Jesus Christ to bring grace to those participating in or receiving it. The Eucharist, from the perspective of these Christian churches is also known as the Lord's Supper. Traditionally, Jesus' command to his disciples at the Last Supper to eat the bread and drink the wine “in remembrance of me” constitutes the institution of the Eucharist. This thesis however, does not focus on the shadowy rites and tradition of contemporary churches, rather its preoccupied concern is to make known to the spiritual class, the true meaning and significance of the Last supper and the distinction between the Lord's supper and the Last supper.

Matthew 3:11; I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me (the  begotten of the Father, or the Christ) is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall

Many Christians have memorized and can recite the Ten Commandments but they understand little about the significance of these commandments, especially the first and the second great commandments. The purpose of this thesis is to unfold to us the true definition and meaning of the first and second great commandments and why these two laws are regarded as ‘the great commandments’. These two commandments are the premier of all scriptural commandments and ought to be understood from the perspective of embracement (willing acceptance) rather than disinclination. These commandments should be obeyed; not by compulsion, although spiritual adepts, with a degree of importance, regard highly, and joyfully compel themselves to following strictly these commandments; having a foreknowledge of the manifold spiritual blessings bestowed on those who value with intensity these commandments. Psalms 119 was written solely to celebrate the commandments of the Lord and to show its importance to our Chri
