In our last post in answer to the question: What is pictured by the Cup?
We had determined that the Cup was a picture of the Sin Offering experiences of Jesus and the Church, of the sufferings, trials, ignominy and self-denials he endured and what all who would be joined to the body through his...
In the Communion or Memorial Service two emblems are brought to our attention, the bread and the cup, here though our focus is upon the cup. (Excerpts here were taken from an article entitled, Why two emblems? by Brother George Tabac)

"Are ye able to drink of the Cup that I shall drink of ?” (Matt 20:22)
“We might think of the word Cup as representing various experiences of life-that everybody has, his or her Cup of mingled joys and sorrows. But Jesus used the word in a different sense. When He was in the Garden of...
"Do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death (Made participators with him)?" (Rom 6:3)

BUT ONE OF THE ELDERS: (Those which we saw introduced in Chapter 4)
