    The Lords Supper a reverent celebration of thanksgiving

    1 Cor 11: 24 And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me. 25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye...

    An Unworthy Manner: The Truth About The Lord's Supper

    “Therefore, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord. A man ought to examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without recognizing the body...

    Question about the Lord's Supper

    I'm new to the LCMS church (not a member yet but been attending for a while) and I'm struggling to understand the concept that the act of taking communion forgives sins if we obtain salvation through faith, not works/actions. Coming from an Anglican background, I understand the concept of the...

    Covid(16) Christ Over Virus Infections And Diseases - Cure For Covid-19 - A Spiritual Body

    Spending time in His presence changes our world realities to word realities! There is a reality of the world and there is a reality in the word. Sometimes the reality of the world says there is no way out, it is a deathly situation, it is a deadly disease. The reality of the world speaks of that...

    OO/EO discussion (not debate): Is it a good thing that we show up in each others' churches?

    Note: Even though I already put it in the thread title, I want to reiterate that I'm posting this in St. Basil the Great's Hall, not St. Justin's, because I don't see any need that this turn into a debate. I don't want one. (This is also why I didn't put it in the general forum.) It's a pretty...

    Does it creep you out when your life is recorded in heaven

    I read Hebrews 4:13 that says Nothing in all creations is hidden from God. Everything is naked and exposed before his eyes and he is the on to whom we are accountable.

    Why does it seem like God abandoned me?

    I hope this is the last time I ask these kinds of questions here, as I've not really contributed back anything, I just need help discerning my circumstances. Long story short, I was convicted to leave my school, I'm guessing it had something to do with idolatry but I was really against the idea...

    Why not to receive Holy Communion in the hand.

    Good day everyone, I am going to make this post not as a judgement, but on my views as to why Communion should always be received kneeling (or genuflecting) and on the tongue. I am also open to any counter arguments that would be made. Prior to Vatican II and more specifically shortly after...

    Questions About Anglicanism

    I've had an interest in the Anglican Tradition for a while. I have a few questions, most of which have to do with the ACNA. First, aside from having a stronger position on not ordaining women and breaking away from the Episcopal Church at a different time, I’m a little fuzzy on what makes the...

    Early Christians on Communion

    Hello, everyone. Today I'll be arguing through early christian sources that the early Christians (c.100-325AD) believed in the Real Presence. I'm not a Catholic (or any denomination for that matter) so I've got no vested interest in defending this doctrine but I'm pointing out that the early...
