Of the Imitation of Christ/Book IV/Exhortation
A DEVOUT EXHORTATION TO HOLY COMMUNION.
OME unto Me all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will refresh you, saith the Lord.
"The bread which I will give is My flesh, which I will give for the life of the world."
"Take, eat: this is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me."
"He that eateth My flesh and drinketh My blood, dwelleth in Me, and I in him."
"The words which I speak unto you are spirit and life."
