Take Communion

May 5, 2024    Pastor Scott Lothery

In the Christian church, there’s a long history of debate about the nature of communion, but all churches think that it was ordained by Jesus to be done with regularity in worship services. It’s not wrong to take communion elsewhere, like if you end up homebound and someone brings you it, but communion is first and foremost to be taken in your local church at the worship gathering. That’s God’s design for it. Matthew 26:26-28 describes three reasons Jesus wants us to participate in the Lord’s Supper.
