Seeing Jesus in The CommunionFire of Scripture

He opened the scriptures to them revealing who He is! But they didn't recognize Him.
Early on when we first started sharing about The Miracle of CommunionFire someone said, "You know Bob, its not all about CommunionFire!" My response was, "For me it is all about Communion and CommunionFire!" 

Perhaps they were thinking that their observation might help to balance out my preoccupation and intense focus on encountering the Lord Jesus at His Table. 

As I observe the condition of Christianity today it seems every pulpit is talking about the need for unity in the Body of Christ, for vision, for encountering Jesus, for developing your relationship with Jesus and similar themes. But no one offers His solution! Outside of things you must do (attend church, read the scriptures, pray, do good to others, love the Lord with all your heart). On the other hand Jesus says, "Come. Sit. Dine with me." 

It's about who He is, knowing Him and what He has done. 

Its not about what we can do to help Jesus build His Kingdom, about us making ourselves holy or righteous or even making Communion with Him or each other happen. We just plain don't know how! Let's look at how this is reflected in the pages of the Holy Scriptures.

Jesus is the reason for all Holy Scripture. If you are reading or studying or memorizing the Scriptures for any other reason than to see and know Jesus - you are doing it for the wrong reason. I didn't say this - Jesus did! It is Him. He is The Word. The Scriptures are His Testimony and we are His witnesses. What is revealed in natural light and candlelight sunlight and kindle light is a manifestation of Jesus. It is the revelation of Jesus and the final exclamation point of all Scripture is a Book called The Revelation of Jesus Christ!  

That is what the scriptures are for. When did Jesus make this the clearest? 

It is the first thing Jesus did after His resurrection on the Emmaus Road. 

He opened up the Law and the Prophets about Himself to Cleopas and Mary. It caused their hearts to burn within them. Then, when He blessed and broke the bread at their house, their eyes were opened and then they recognized Jesus - and He disappeared! Then when they got back to Jerusalem, Jesus re-appeared when Cleopas and Mary shared how their eyes were opened in the breaking of the bread to recognize Him. Immediately Jesus "appeared in the midst of them". He spent all night, again, revealing Himself to the disciples through the Law, the Prophets and the Psalms. 

(Muggeridge on Emmaus confirming our thoughts about Cleopas and Mary - "the other disciple")

Each name and story in the Scriptures (graphe) reveals Jesus (The Logos) by the Holy Spirit (the breath of the Logos). The Word became flesh! Jesus said we must eat His flesh and drink His blood to have His life at work in us and around us. In effect if all of scripture is about the revelation of Jesus then all of scripture is about Communion - His Body and His Blood. For it is the Scriptures that enlighten our eyes and allow us to read about Him in this life to ourselves and our children. But it is His meal where we feast on the reality of His presence. Every time we come to His Table He now opens our eyes to recognize what is eternal. We see Him. We see His face! We see the light of His glory. We experience and encounter His real presence as a result of eating His real flesh and drinking His real blood. (Again, I didn't say it - He did!) He goes on to say that if we don't - we have no life in us. Only Jesus can reveal Himself as the Bread of Life to you. We feed on His presence. 

From the very beginning - after the fall in the garden by eating the forbidden fruit, God told Adam that from then on the Adamic nature would be bound to work by the sweat of his brow to have bread to eat. This is the first appearance of bread in the Scripture. Then God sent them away from the presence of the Lord and Communion with Him in the Garden! That bread only feeds the physical body and we have to work for it. Thats the curse of inheriting the Adamic nature. 

Even the Children of Israel in the wilderness, who survived by the miracle of the Manna from Heaven, were told by Jesus that the miracle bread was not enough to give them eternal life. 

Jesus said, "I am the bread of life, if you eat this bread you shall have eternal life!" (John 6)

Got Communion?
Come to the Table of the Lord. Sit down with Him. Feast on Him with thanksgiving and drink Him in with great joy! You are the righteousness of God in Christ for He who knew no sin was made to be sin for you that you might be the righteousness of God in Him! "Do this" Jesus says and He can open your eyes to recognize Him. He is waiting just for you - to love you where you are, as you are for who you are.

    This was a Campus Crusader who wanted Early Church authenticity - I was called into the ministry under the street preaching of this wonderful Man of God in Berkeley, CA in 1971. He was a founder of God's Love household for Street Christians, the publisher of the Jesus People's Movement called "Right On" and through an amazing series of transformations throughout his ministry He was a founder of The University of Orthodox Theology (now called St. Athanasius Academy of Orthodox Theology) and oversaw the creation of The Orthodox Study Bible before the Lord moved him to his new address in heaven. Thanks Fr. Jack N. Sparks, Ph.D The Witness of Jack and his estimed Associates from Grace Haven Farms, New Covenant Apostolic Order, The Evangelical Orthodox Churches and theis eventual assimilation into the Antiochian Orthodox Church of America is truely one of the Great Church Histories of the 20th and 21st Century.

    Luke 3:16 "He will baptize you with the Holy Ghost and fire."  Ask Jesus to baptize you in the Holy Spirit and fire today.
    Another significant influence in my life is the life and ministry of Winkey Pratney. His lifelong commitment to the study and application of Revival as both an apologist and polemicist raised the bar for me and he accomplished what I only dreamed - to Produce the Revival Study Bible. He has also been an intrinsic Man of God from the days of the Jesus People Movement and a part of my experience as a visiting teacher at Christ for the Nations in Dallas in 1975 and one of the principles in Y.W.A.M. Youth With A Mission that has had a direct impact on my sister, daughters, nephews and grandchildren. Thanks Brother Winkey for the legacy you have deposited into my life and the life of so many others.
