1 | The significance of Communion | 1 Cor 10:14 | EdB | 225489 | ||
With all due respect the presuppositions that you infer are errant are based on the meaning of the word koinenia. Your response never speaks to the meaning of word koinenia. You simply take the stance that communion is physical activity that doesn't perform any magic. To me that answer is simply ignoring the fact that many physical activities have spiritual consequences both good and bad. If you don't want to explore the full meaning of koinenia and all that it is entails fine but don't poopoo the question as being based on errant persuppositions. There has to be more to it than just a physical activity or Paul would have never used the analogy comparing partaking of food offered to idols with partaking of the bread and wine of communion. I believe grasping the full meaning of the word koinenia is important to understand what Paul is saying. |

Dear EdB, Knowing that you - as a long time contributor to the forum, I am surprised to read of your using word (the "poopoo" word) inappropriately. I am afraid you might have forgotten the TOU (after some time of departure from the forum) which I hope you might refresh your mind with it again. * You agree to interact with each other in a Christian spirit, with respect and grace. May you continue to grace the forum and edify one another with brotherly love. Shalom Azure |

If the use of the word Poopoo offended or violated the guidelines in any way I certainly apologize. The use of the word was not a reference to excrement but rather it was as a colloquialism for brushing aside, discounting, ignoring, spurn or snub. Perhaps I should have used the more British spelling Pooh-Pooh and that would have avoided any consternation. Again I apologize for offending or violating any rules and I will in the future refrain from using the term |

Dear EdB, Thank you very much for your explanation. See how a word spelled differently could cause unnecessary misunderstanding! I should also be mindful of myself for making the same problem. Thank you again. Shalom Azure |
