The Lord's Table

This study will examine if the Lord's table is the same as the Lord's supper.
In the verses below we see the setting for the table is the sanctuary.

44:15 But the priests the Levites, the sons of Zadok, that kept the charge of my sanctuary when the children of Israel went astray from me, they shall come near to me to minister unto me, and they shall stand before me to offer unto me the fat and the blood, saith the Lord GOD:

44:16 They shall enter into my sanctuary, and they shall come near to my table, to minister unto me, and they shall keep my charge. Ezekiel 44:15-16

Showbread in the passage below represents Christ, who was broken for us. The showbread is set upon table.
25:30 And thou shalt set upon the table showbread before me always. Exodus 25:30
The verse below speaks to the coming kingdom, in which Israel will reign with Christ and be a blessing to the nations on earth. The table set in the kingdom will be to commune with Christ and the twelve apostles will judge Israel.

22:30 That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel. Luke 22:30

Paul is admonishing the believers below that they can't be partakers of Christ and his kingdom by partaking of his provision at the table and at the same time have fellowship with the idolatry of devils.
10:21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils. 1 Corinthians 10:21

In the Lord's supper the cup represents his blood which was shed to forgive all sin and provide the new covenant.
Below the cup is the cup of the provision for salvation.

116:13 I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the LORD. Psalms 116:13
The Lord's table is where we have fellowship in and with Christ, it is the celebration of the provision that is made for the new covenant, for Israel and the body of Christ.
The Lord's supper is a memorial of Christ's body and blood sacrifice which put the new covenant in motion. It is not the feast of unleavened bread and the passover sacrifice.
Both openly proclaim the victory Christ gave us over sin and death and both share in breaking bread and the cup of blessing. The Lord's table and supper appear to me, to be one and the same.

No, the Lord's supper is not the same thing as the Lord's table.
The Lord's supper refers to Jesus eating the Passover meal with the Disciples as one of the Feasts of the Lord that the children of Israel were commanded to keep.
The Lord's table is the sacrifices to God on the altar at the Temple.

The Bible doesn't say what the Lord had for supper.

The broken bread and the wine were taken after supper.

"Likewise He also took the cup after supper, saying, 'This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is shed for you.'" (Luke 22:20)

Review the seder meal. You'll find that Jesus was celebrating the Passover meal when he instituted a change in the Passover meal and made himself the lamb who was slain.

The sacrament of the Lord's Supper is a heresy built upon the gospel accounts of the last supper. The Lord's Supper sacrament was conjured up after the apostolic age. Why?
To justify the clerical priesthood that set aside the priesthood of all believers. The Lord's Supper, anglican and catholic, belongs to the man made religion that is the church.

My faith is not in the church or its religion. Believing in the church maybe your definition of a Christian. I do not place my faith in being a so called Christian, but in being an adopted son of God in Christ according to the Father's pleasure. The church desperately needs to return to the simple plain truths of the New Testament.The central reality is the glory of God not the church and its religion.

I had to read twice to follow you.
What I believe you are addressing is the false teaching that God's grace is extended through the participation in communion and other sacraments created by the church at Rome. If I have understood you correctly, I then agree with you.
Jesus did institute the Lord's supper as a covenantal remembrance of his sacrificial atonement for the sins of the elect.

Indeed, it is by God's gracious favor that He made us alive in Christ and adopted us as His children in the Kingdom.

Ephesians 1:4-5
[4]Even before he made the world, God loved us and chose us in Christ to be holy and without fault in his eyes.
[5]God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure.
Romans 8
[15]So you have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God’s Spirit when he adopted you as his own children. Now we call him, “Abba, Father.”

But Jesus said, "but go to My brethren and say to them, 'I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to My God and your God.'"

My Father and your Father would be the same Father.

Our biological father gives us life, but our Spirit Father gives us eternal life.

The Christian denominations have changed the form of the Lord's Supper from a Passover Seder to either "wafers and wine" or "crackers and grape juice".
