1 | Why is communion a sin for sinners? | Luke 22:19 | Morant61 | 210593 | ||
Greetings Kelly First of all, welcome to the forum. The article on communion in the ISBE makes this point. "Paul is making a protest against Christians participating in idolatrous feasts on the ground that such feasts are really celebrated in honor of the demons associated with the idols, and that those who participate in them come into fellowship with demons. As a proof of this point the apostle cites the Lord's Supper with which his readers are familiar. By partaking of the cup and the bread the communicants are linked together in unity: "We, who are many, are one bread, one body: for we all partake of the one bread." Thus the communion of the elements is a real communion of the worshippers one with another and with Christ. Unless the communion be understood in this spiritual sense Paul's illustration falls short of the mark." How can one celebrate the body of Christ unless one is part of the Body of Christ? Tim Moran |
