Turning to the Pauline churches, he points out that meals did not include everyone in the eating and drinking and were understood as apocalyptic holy space, replete with charismatic phenomena. Still, in serving to build up the body of Christ, these meals also promoted missionary expansion. A number of passages not usually taken to be eucharistic, such as Romans 12 and 2 Corinthians 8-9, are then explored, showing that good cases can be made for seeing them as allusions to ritual meals and noting that many of these passages also exhibit missionary concerns.Finally, Professor Koenig links the results of his study to contemporary church life, arguing that eucharistic presence denotes all of the persons of the Trinity, the kingdom, and ourselves in a unique interplay that strengthens our vocation within God's redeeming plan. John T. Koenig is Sub-Dean for Academic Affairs and Professor of New Testament at the General Theological Seminary, New York. His is the author of Rediscovering New Testament Prayer: Boldness and Blessing in the Name of Jesus (.
