Then after they ate that meal, Jesus picked up a cup of wine and said, “Drink from this cup. God has agreed to save people, and I will die so he can do that. My blood will come out, and it is like I’m using my blood to sign God’s new agreement with everyone. So every time you have this special meal and drink from this cup, remember that my blood came out and I died for you.” That’s what Jesus said that night.
