One cup

One God,

One Father, one Jesus Christ, one Holy Spirit,

One Lord,

One faith.

 

One family

One woman, one man,

One husband, one wife,

One love…

 

One Gate,

Narrow…

One Way,

Difficult…

 

One Life,

In this world and hereafter,

In Paradise or in Hell

In the New Jerusalem or the Lake of Fire and Brimstone.

 

It all depends on a single decision,

Reason or the heart,

Which makes a difference,

Between the chosen and the called.

 

There is only one Cup of the New Covenant,

It is the Cup of Salvation

Those who drink from it agree,

to take part with their blood in this Pact.

 

It is impossible to make an omelet without frying eggs,

There is no salvation without a sacrificial faith

There is no Pact without sacrifice from both sides,

From the Creator and man.

 

Can a marriage survive without the couple’s sacrifice?

Can an alliance survive without the sacrifice of those involved?

Can a person drink from the Cup of the New Covenant of the Blood of Jesus without personally sacrificing?

“…whoever eats this bread or drink this cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner (without sacrificing their life), will be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 11.27

 

There is only One Cup of Salvation,

It represents Jesus, the True Vine.

Those who partake of Him agree with the covenant of God the Father,

In a practical way, by sacrificing their own will.
