The potency of holy communion

It is a name given to a practice which was unveiled by Jesus. 
It is about taking the flesh and the blood of Jesus. What does it even mean and how important could it be? This is a question that has been on for ages; some even call it mystery. Understand this, Jesus dint come to create a new movement but to fulfil the law. 

The reason for this topic is to open your eyes to the potency of holy communion. You need to start seeing it beyond a remembrance thing or a commandment. 

What is communion? 
In Luke 24:30-31, we could see (aside from remembrance sake) what else communion could do, and this was shown by Jesus - it opens their eyes just the way the forbidden fruit changed Adam. 
Communion is just as potent as the trees in the garden of Eden; it is like a software (a coding system), which automatically registers a function following installation. The Bible says 'and there eye of understanding was opened' 

Jesus was described as the bread of life and the explanation is easy. The nourishment of the tree of life is the word (man shall live...by word) which became (refined into) flesh (bread). 
Adam lived by the fruit of the tree of life in the garden of Eden. This fruit contains what Adam needed on daily basis and it constituent kept changing to take care of Adam's need; so also is the communion. 

Two examples: 
1. Intake of manna (it sustained the Israelites for 40 years and none was sick). 
2. 1King19:8, Elijah needed to embark on a journey and just a single meal sustained him for 40 days . 

Lessons: 
1. It should be taken on regular basis with understanding even in your home. 
2. Taking it unlawfully is a disaster (because it is more than a remembrance thing, it is very potent), that was why God chased Adam away from the garden.
