Imagine if you will that surfing the internet in Malaysia you come across a Christian website that documents a church’s ‘innovative’ attempts at having the Lord’s supper ‘the way the New Testament church did it’. As you look at the photographs of Malaysian Christians gathered around a reenacted Passover with bitter herbs, unleavened bread and a lamb roast, you feel, as an Asian, the inherent appeal in this approach. The gathering of Christian community around a meal, the continuity with God’s OT people, the sacrificial atoning death of Jesus, all these seem to flow naturally from these glossy images.
