"The Lord Jesus the same night in which He was betrayed took bread: and when He had given thanks, He brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is My body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of Me. After the same manner also He took the cup, when He had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in My blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of Me. For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do show the Lord's death till He come." 1 Cor. 11:23-26.

At Herren Jesus i den nat, da han blev forrådt, tog brødet, takkede, brød det og sagde: "Dette er mit legeme, som gives for jer, gør dette til ihukommelse af mig!" Ligeså tog han kalken efter aftensmåltidet og sagde: "Denne kalk er den nye pagt ved mit blod, gør dette, så ofte som I drikker den, til ihukommelse af mig." Thi så ofte som I spiser dette brød og drikker kalken, forkynder I Herrens død, indtil han kommer." 1Kor.11,23-26.
