Charis, since Jesus said only "as often as you do this" it should be in remembrance of Him, one would be hard pressed, it seems to me, to attach any mandatory time schedule to the sacred ordinance. There are those communions who observe the Lord's Supper weekly or even more frequently. There are others who observe it less frequently, perhaps monthly or quarterly. In the church I attend, it is the view that too frequent an observance runs the risk of causing it to become merely a routine observance, mechanical and diluted in meaning. When we observe the Lord's Supper, the entire service -- the music, the pastor's message, everything -- is dedicated to this one ordinance of our Lord. It is beautiful and truly meaningful. --Hank | ||||||
