Now when you come together at the same place, you are not really eating the Lord’s Supper.

But Jesus<n id="1" /> said to him, &#8220;A man once gave a great banquet<n id="2" /> and invited<n id="3" /> many guests.<n id="4" />

For when it is time to eat, everyone proceeds with his own supper. One is hungry and another becomes drunk.

<p class="bodytext">But<n id="1" /> a suitable day<n id="2" /> came, when Herod gave a banquet on his birthday for his court officials, military commanders, and leaders of Galilee.

So they prepared a dinner for Jesus<n id="1" /> there. Martha<n id="2" /> was serving, and Lazarus was among those present at the table<n id="3" /> with him.

<p class="bodytext">Then<n id="1" /> the angel<n id="2" /> said to me, &#8220;Write the following: Blessed are those who are invited to the banquet at the wedding celebration of the Lamb!&#8221; He also said to me, &#8220;These are the true words of God.&#8221;

<p class="bodytext">Then<n id="1" /> I saw one angel standing in<n id="2" /> the sun, and he shouted in a loud voice to all the birds flying high in the sky:<n id="3" />p> <p class="poetry">&#8220;Come, gather around for the great banquet<n id="4" /> of God,p>

<p class="bodytext">He<n id="1" /> said also to the man<n id="2" /> who had invited him, &#8220;When you host a dinner or a banquet,<n id="3" /> don&#8217;t invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or rich neighbors so you can be invited by them in return and get repaid.
