January 24 ~ Things in the Bible not really in the Bible…and a few surprises

 

Oops of the Day  

Only a priest or bishop can hand out the bread of the Lord’s Supper.  In fact, common worshipers are not allowed to touch it with their hands because it is so holy.  The priest or bishop has to set it on the tongue of the worshiper.

Matthew 26:26  –  Acts 20:4-8

Fact of the Day

No! Jesus gave the bread to his apostles and told them to break off a piece to eat.    He did not set it on their tongues.  Further, years after Jesus died, a group of Christians met together on the first day of the week to break bread.  (In Greek “met” was a religious meeting.) They broke their own piece of bread off to eat.
