Christ’s words are simple. Is means is. He institutes this supper to bring all the benefits from His cross to us today. We confess that it is the true body and blood because He is truly there. The same Jesus on the cross we receive in that bread and wine. If Christ is truly there and we believe His words, we receive what He promises: forgiveness, life, and salvation.
