Detailed Synoptic comparison of Last Supper: Paul, Mark, Matthew, and Luke all describe the same sequence

Skeptics Wrongly Claim Apostle Paul Didn’t Know Jesus 00:33:50 – 00:36:25

Mike does a detailed side-by-side comparison of the Last Supper accounts across Paul and the three Synoptic Gospels.

Paul (1 Cor 11): betrayal night → takes bread → gives thanks → breaks it → 'This is my body' → takes cup after supper → 'New Covenant in my blood.' Mark 14:22: eating → takes bread → blesses it → breaks it → gives it → 'This is my body' → takes cup → gives thanks → they drink → 'This is my blood.' Matthew 26:26: blesses → breaks → distributes → 'This is my body' → takes cup → gives thanks → 'Drink of it.' Luke 22:19-20: same pattern. Mike notes they are not verbatim copies — they vary as independent accounts would — but the sequence and core phrases consistently match. This confirms Paul and the Gospels describe the same historical event, undermining any theory of two different Jesuses.
