Subject: Weekly Communion? |
Bible Note: In my translation - New Revised Standard life Application Bible - it has a footnote to verse Acts 20:7 that states "a fellowship dinner- much like a potluck supper was eaten before the Lord's supper was celebrated with the breaking of bread and the drinking of the cup". I'm not sure that this does specifically say that they did communion every week or not. "As often as possible" could also be taken to mean everyday. Luke 22:19 and 1Cor 11:24 say simply "do this in remembrance of me". 1Cor11:25 says "do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me". As I stated before there is no right answer as to how often. It all depends how your particular denomination believes. |
