[The Infant System by Samuel Wilderspin]@TWC D-Link bookThe Infant System CHAPTER XV 30/47
Q.What do you mean by the last supper? A.A sacrament instituted by Jesus Christ himself. Q.What do you understand by a sacrament? A.There are two sacraments, baptism and the holy supper, and they are both observed by true Christians.
Q.We will speak about baptism presently, but as we have the picture of the holy supper before as, let me ask if it is called by any other name? A.Yes; it is said that Jesus kept the passover with his disciples, and when the even was come he sat down with them, and as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave to his disciples, saying, Take, eat, this is my body.
Q.What took place next? A.He took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it them, saying, This is my blood, the blood of the New Testament, which is shed for many.
Q.Did Jesus command this ordinance to be observed by his people? A.Yes; he said in another place, This do in remembrance of me (Luke xxii.
19).
