Just a symbolic remembrance of His broken body and shed blood.

There's something else that is not just as symbolic as the bread and wine shared at the Last Supper, or even more so, and that is the sacrifices made since The Fall until the Cross which anticipated the Slain Lamb of God.

But neither the sacrifice of bulls and of goats, nor the shewbread could take away sin, nor can baked bread or grape juice which have never literally been changed.

Jesus did not pour out transubstantiated grape juice to cover and wash away sin.

Only the Blood which He shed once for all time and eternity could do that.

That is EXACTLY right! Also,

Then one of the elders answered, saying to me, "These who are clothed in the white robes, who are they, and where have they come from?" I said to him, "My lord, you know." And he said to me, "These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. (Revelation 7:13-14)

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin. (I John 1:7)

Amen and Amen!
