    THERES STILL TIME TO PARTAKE.

    Having conducted the ritual of the last supper my wife daughter & myself held the ceremony asked for by jesus christ

    We all ate the bread, we all drank the wine.i even ate and drank for those of us so called apostates who could not or would not partake ,i felt that the watchtower or organization was and has been a stumbling block for many true christians, they are the ones keeping people away from jehovahs loving kindness, they are the ones not allowing the scriptures to be fulfilled they are the stumbling block to many honest people ,

    We all feel a special peace and tranquility effecting the house, we have eaten the body of jesus & drank his blood in doing this we have given ourselves freedom of worship ,we won't rely on any organization to do this for us.

    WE NEVER USED THE BIBLE.

    AS JESUS NEVER USED ANY BIBLE THEREFORE WE KEPT WITH REAL TRADITION IN DOING THIS.WE USED OUR HEARTS AND SPIRIT.

    WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO .CELEBRATE OR NOT ITS YOUR CHOICE.

    hi NW

    i just had my bread and vino tinto 15 mins ago. just a simple read of a couple of scriptures, gave thanks, and ate and drank. i'm glad to do it the right way for a change.

    cheers pleasuredome,

    I would hazard aguess that not many free spirits want to paartake of the only command expressed by jesus christ

    in so observing this meaningfull tradition , i feel that i have taken back my empowerment which had been abused by elders promoting things not mentioned within the scriptures,having realised that my token gesture was more important to jehovah than all the hypocritical sayings and deeds permeated by the borg ,we feel stronger and more in tune with ourselves,its not to everyones liking but i feel great for so many years we allowed imperfect man to stop us eating and drinking the body of christ,thanks for your reply,

    agape

    cheers to you allso

    I often wondered about this:

    According to JW Law, we aren't supposed to eat or drink blood; and yet, at the Memorial, if we are of the annointed class, we are supposed to drink the wine, as an representation of the blood, and eat the bread as a representation of the body. (of Christ)

    Does this make reasonable sense? Nope.

    Sorry, I really don't mean to offend anyone, but this sounds kinda sick to me.

    I perform the ritual of remembrance any ol' time I get in the mood and not necessairly only on the night that I think corresponds to Nisan whatever. And I don't use Mogen David wine and I don't always have any matzoh around when I do it. Thus I'm forced to use a nice Dom Perignon 1951 and fresh-baked yeast rolls. You can carry this symbology stuff a little too far if you axe me.

    At least you show a leaning towards keeping this memorial ,to be honest we used ( a slice of brown bread a little golden port, but its the thought that counts, welcome to the club,maybe next time we should use the succulent rolls and bevearage you have talked about sounds very tastfeul ,i allso know that this is a very touchy subject leaving otheres to either agree or disagree,the other posting about drinking blood and eating someone elses body ,yep yuk is the accepted word for cannobolism within its own right ,but its the significance behind the act.which permeates acceptance of a tradition for jesus followers .

    seems to be a slow thread

    agape to you all

    Francois,

    If you have a case of 51 Dom Perignon please send a bottle my way to help me in the Truth. Yes that will save my cheap-wine aflicted soul. I can accept Pomerol de Château Pétrus as a substitute to keep me faithful, if you have some. Beggers cant be choosers.

    Hi Nightwarrior,

    LOL, don't feel that way! I think that there are quite a few here who join in proclaiming the Lord's death until he comes.....! My husband and I did. I think that there have been quite a few threads with this topic and well, maybe they just didn't feel the need to repond again. As for the blood drinking comment...wow...I think that since the blood is the 'symbol of life' then partaking of Jesus' blood symbolically is to drink eternal life. It is only 'yuk' to those who have no need for Christ. By the way, my husband and I were moved to tears of joy during and did feel quite peaceful afterwards. Love in Christ, dj

    I am sure the Mr NW can cope. LOL

    I understand how you felt - i also felt very emotional after our 'memorial'.

    I felt very close to my Creator, and a feeling a peace descended.. I was very emotional.

    I haven't done anything in memorial yet but I plan to. I feel bad, but perhaps it's not so much the actual date that matters, but more a genuine appreciate of what Jesus did. (Which I don't feel I have yet, by the way.)
