The Lord's supper was not a passover meal...cant eat the sacrifice without killing it first...
Why was the Passover lamb killed before the meal that night?:
"Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed. And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat" (Lk.22:7-8).
"And the first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the passover, his disciples said unto him, Where wilt thou that we go and prepare that thou mayest eat the passover?" (Mk.14:12).
Are you saying that the Apostles had the Passover lamb killed in order that they could eat it with the Lord Jesus that night but they never ate it? For what reason would they kill it unless they were going to eat it?
