  6. Examples from New Testament • The last supper is probably the most obvious example from the new testament.

Also, he consecrated the bread and wine into the body and blood of Christ. • When Jesus fed the crowd of 5,000 with only a few loaves of bread and a couple fish. • Jesus said, " I am the living bread that came down from heaven; if anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever... Who ever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life... abides in me, and i in him." (John 6:51,54,56) Image. 2012. Web. 3 March 2012 www.calledtocommunion.com.
