What is the Lord’s supper?

The Lord’s supper is a sacrament of the New Testament,a wherein, by giving and receiving bread and wine according to the appointment of Jesus Christ, his death is showed forth; and they that worthily communicate feed upon his body and blood, to their spiritual nourishment and growth in grace;b have their union and communion with him confirmed;c testify and renew their thankfulness,d and engagement to God,e and their mutual love and fellowship each with other, as members of the same mystical body.f
