In Acts 2:42, the early church devoted themselves to the breaking of bread.  There is some debate as to whether this refers to simply eating meals together (part of their devotion to fellowship) or to the Lord’s Supper.  As the Lord’s Supper was often connected to eating together (see I Corinthians 11), the answer might be both.  As we already addressed their devotion to fellowship, let’s consider briefly their devotion to the Lord’s Supper.

As Jesus commanded, they were devoted to coming together to celebrate the Lord’s Supper.  They came together to remember Christ’s death for them.  We too need this devotion.  We too need to regularly remember what Christ has done for us.  Indeed Christ’s sacrifice for us is a large part of our motivation for the other three devotions, and all of our devotion. 

He died for me.  In amazement and gratitude, I’ll live for him.
