1 | What liquid was in the communion cup? | 1 Cor 11:25 | DocTrinsograce | 232994 | ||
Dear Tim, I have watched this debate go back and forth in my own church circles relative to the correct constituency of the "wine" in communion. Some churches even offer both. Looking more broadly in a wider circle of debate across the denominational spectrum, I have noticed something: No one ever debates the appropriate content of the bread. I'm not embracing one side of the issue or the other. Just pondering. In Him, Doc |

Greetings Doc! Well, it would have to be unleavened bread! ;-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Unleavened certainly makes sense historically -- wheat grain, clearly. (I was at one church recently that used some kind of wafer that was, I think, rice.) Of course, it would have been stone ground in Biblical times. If the ethanol content of wine is an important factor, I wonder if refined GMO wheat is an issue. :-) Come to that, aren't there something over 5,000 grape varieties in the world? I wonder if the kind of grape that was used in the Middle East is still extant? | ||||||

Doc, Ironically I am reading Calvin on the sacraments in the institutes. I'll let you know if I he is for a specific type of grape. Haha. ;) In Christ, Beja |
