Summary
Joe and Jimmy have another conversation about The Lord’s Supper in connection with the article we just released call, Virtual Communion. Because the context in which the Lord’s Supper was observed in the first century was when local churches gathered together, and because of the warnings and actions of God against those who partake of the ordinance in an unworthy manner, and because of God’s charge to leaders to exercise oversight and discipline during the observance of this ordinance, it is only when the local church is assembled, with the oversight of the elders, that we can properly observe this ordinance. Plus, the guys answer some related questions that came in via social media.
