The Lord's Supper focuses on the __ of Christ.

• A. crucifixion
• B. resurrection
• C. birth
• D. baptism

Answer: (A)

The Lord's Supper centers on Christ's crucifixion—the sacrifice He made for sin. At the Last Supper, Jesus established this practice, telling His disciples to eat the bread as His body broken for them and to drink the cup as His blood shed for many for the forgiveness of sins. These elements symbolize the new covenant secured by His death and invite believers to remember His sacrifice and proclaim His death until He comes. While the resurrection is foundational to the Christian faith, the meal itself specifically memorializes the atoning death on the cross, not birth or baptism. Birth marks humanity entering the world; baptism represents identification with Christ’s death and new life in Him, but neither is the focus of the Lord's Supper.
