Brother chette777,

I want to apologize. While I think that most of what I said was doctrinally correct, it was not spoken in a loving manner. I can honestly say that I do not know what is the "proper" way for Christians to practice the Lord's supper, so I am in no position to judge anyone on how they decide to keep it.

My snide comments about grape juice and crackers was just plain wrong. If believers choose to practice the Lord's supper in that way it is none of my business. The Catholic tradition of communion is a grave error in my opinion, and that's the cause for my reaction. But that does not mean that everything that is the least bit similar to it is heresy. I hope you understand the reason for my concern. But again, I am not the judge and the only person I really need to spend time in judging is myself. Heaven forbid that my words would place a stumbling block in front of another brother.

16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: 17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
