Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to the
disciples and said, "Take, eat; this is My body." 27 Then He took
the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, "Drink from
it, all of you. 28 For this is My blood of the new covenant, which
is shed for many for the remission of sins. 29 But I say to you, I
will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day
when I drink it new with you in My Father's kingdom." Luke 14:25-33

cost, whether he has enough to finish it lest, after he has laid
the foundation, and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to
mock him,30 saying, 'This man began to build and was not able to
finish.'31 Or what king, going to make war against another king,
does not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten
thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand?32

delegation and asks conditions of peace.33 So likewise, whoever of
