Introduction

Most people around the world today celebrate Easter for various reasons; some with a religious significance attached to it, while others just see it as another Bank Holiday and a time to let their hair down, go out, and have fun with friends and family.

For me it has become a season of expectation and inspiration. In April 2013, the Holy Spirit inspired me to write a book which I titled, "The Pain and The Passion of Christ." A book that shares revelations about the very foundation upon which the Easter season itself is built on – The death and the resurrection of Christ.

This year He has inspired me to write yet another eye-opening book about one of the greatest Kingdom mysteries ever known to man. A mystery that is tied to the Easter celebrations and for what it stands for. It is very important for you to understand that the Kingdom of God is governed by mysteries–hidden truths or divine secrets - which can only be revealed to us, by the Holy Spirit. His key ministry is to guide and teach us in the word of God, until our life reflects the very image of, and the glory of Christ Himself – ICorinthians 3:8-10.

In this book I will be sharing deep insights form God’s word that will help shed more light on the power and the blessings of the Holy Communion.

John 8:32

And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

IT IS NOT A RELIGIOUS ORDINANCE

For many generations since the birth of the Church, quite a number of Church denominations have been treating the ‘ Holy Communion ’ which is also known as " the LORD’s Table ", as a religious ordinance. An ordinance that is only partaken of at certain Church gatherings or specials occasions. 

Part of my Christian experience included growing up in the Anglican Church, which I attended with my parents. We were made to believe that Christianity was all about going to church on Sunday, reading the Bible with your family, and going to confirmation classes.

It was not until I got saved, while at University, that I came to understand that Christianity was about accepting Jesus Christ as your LORD and Saviour and living a holy life. I have had my fair share of treating the Holy Communion as just another religious rite, while I was still in the Anglican fold. This didn’t really change when I first became a born-again believer.

As I began to study and grow in the word of God, the Holy Spirit began to open my understanding to the mysteries of the Kingdom. It was then I realised that the Holy Communion is not a religious ordinance but a "Covenant of Life."

It is one of the greatest mysteries that has ever been revealed to man. Its power and blessings have been hidden in Christ before the very foundations of the earth itself.

Paul had this to say in Ephesians 3: 8-11;

Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ; And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our LORD:

There are certain "Kingdom Secrets" relating to our Salvation in Christ and our purpose here on the earth that were hidden in God before He even created the first man.

These secrets, which are supernatural weapons in the hands of the believer, are out of the reach of the devil himself and his forces of darkness. The Holy Communion is one of such weapons. There is so much power and blessings contained in this great Kingdom ordinance, that you can no longer treat it as just another Church ritual. There is more to the "Holy Communion" than meets the eye, and this is what this book is all about, to open your eyes and enlighten your spirit with the truth.

THE OLD TESTAMENT

Shadows and Types

The Old Testament is full of shadow of things which only became a reality or came into existence in the New Testament. The Holy Communion as we know it today was introduced to us by Jesus at the Last Supper with his disciples.

"And he said unto them, with desire I have desired to
