We were invited for an evening program.when we got there the pastor was preaching after that,he said its time for communion.they shared it round,the pastor asked us why we are not partaking,my husband told him we are first timers but the pastor said it doesnt matter and insist we take it,but we refuse.
A lady also refuse that she is a first timer too,the pastor got angry.
Please i want to know if its right or wrong.

To my own understanding,holy communion is to be taking by those who are holy and rightousley bathised by the name of the father,of the son and of the holy spirit in the river by a reverend father or a pastor' that is when you pass the lecture of batism.if not you just take in a curse. May the lord deliverd us of our ignorance

This can be of help to you.

1 Corinthians 11:24-27

And when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, “This is my body which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” In the same way also he took the cup, after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.” For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes. Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty concerning the body and blood of the Lord.

IN 1 Corinthians 11:28

Let a person examine himself, then, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup.

Ist let me know why u ddnt take it? (Don't tell me it's because u're new). Could it be bc u don't trust the pastor yet?

Its very WRONG!!

Its very WRONG!!

Hw can it be wrong?
It is a communion for crying out loud. Communion is d joining together of minds and spirits. Synonyms are fellowship, partnership, participation, harmony, agreement.
If u could eat d spiritual food with them (d word) wht stops u from feeding on the physical. If u dont agree with their doctrines, fine. But leave out the unnecessary bias

It is 100% right.....ready to answer questions on this

The examination being talked abt is motive. Some brethren eat and drink to excess while others do not get at all. Discretion is adviced.

1co11.21.kjv For in eating every one taketh before other his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken.

you should have taken the communion dear

Aren't you a christain dear?

blesoh:

baptised by immersion

But John clearly told u dt water baptism was his and dt Jesus baptised with d Holy Spirit and with fire.
Why exactly do u think water baptism is necessary for communion?
