Bible Question:
I need some help understanding closed communion. Closed communion being that only memebers of the local Church (those with their names on the roll) can praticipate. Is this what it is? Why is it practiced? Is there any scriptural basis to it? Can anyone help me? I did a search and came up with nothing. later...wdc |
Bible Answer: Hello wdc Communion is viewed as the defining moment of intimate fellowship between believers. It is therefore guarded to the greatest degree so as not to allow unrepentant sin into the group. I don't see any Scriptural basis for it. Steve |
