1 | should you eat or drink in the Sanctura | 1 Cor 11:34 | EdB | 237078 | ||
This pasage isn't talking about eating or drinking in the Sanctuary but rather about taking communion. In those days most people met in houses. How we treat God's house (church or sanctuary) should reflect our respect of God. At one time sanctuaries were viewed as very hallowed and people displayed a lot of respect. Over the years many people have taken a more casual attitude toward God and things of God. Today in some churches food and drink are brought into the sanctuary in other churches this is still prohibited. Personally I think there are many reasons to justify a prohibition of all food and drink from the sanctuary. The top two being respect for holiness of God and cleanliness (keeping the seating and carpeting free of food stains). |

Again this passage 1 Cor 11:34 is dealing with communion only. Some people were not taking communion in a proper fashion. You need to read the whole passage in context. Start your reading with verse 1 Cor 11:17 to the end of the chapter. The admonishment found in verse 34 is saying if you are hungry eat at home don't expect or try to fillup on communion. |

Hi, Wayne... It would depend on who you are talking to. This would be something that would be based on the particular congregation doing the baptizing. I would say that orthodox Christianity would insist that water is an essential element of baptism. There would be variation relative to the mode, and relative to who was eligible to be baptized. Christians have been deliberating this subject since the earliest days of the primitive church. As an Historic Baptist, we hold that baptismal immersion seems to reflect the Biblical pattern better than other modes -- even the Greek word for baptism means immersion. However, we also would insist that the only eligible subject of baptism is a person who can properly articulate their faith and who gives evidence of their regeneration (cf 1689 London Baptist Confession of Faith, chapter 29).
