Section 10

We are all one bread, one Body, because we all partake of the one bread. Our joint partaking of the one bread testifies that we all are one. This indicates that our partaking of Christ makes us all His one Body. The very Christ of whom we all partake constitutes us into His one Body.

Verse 20 of Luke 22 says, "And similarly the cup after they had dined, saying, This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is being poured out for you." Once again, this is not the cup of the Passover; rather, this cup is the new covenant in the Lord's blood.

God made a covenant with redeemed Israel in Exodus 24:3-8 (Heb. 9:18-21), which became the old testament, as a base for Him to deal with His redeemed people in the dispensation of law. The Man-Savior came to accomplish God's eter nal redemption for God's chosen people by His death, according to God's will (Heb. 10:7, 9-10), and with His blood instituted a new covenant, a better covenant (Heb. 8:6-13), which became the new testament after His resurrection (Heb. 9:16-17), as a base for God to be one with His redeemed and regenerated people in the dispen sation of grace. This new covenant replaced the old covenant and simultaneously changed God's old dispensation to His new dispensation. The

Man-Savior wanted His disciples to know this and live a life based on it and according to it after His resurrection.
