way, and there is a questionable
way to worship God.
i When it comes 'to the ofoser-
, vance of the Lord’s Supper, does
' it matter how often we partake
of it? Would people go wrong
. for insisting that it be observed
I on the first day of every week?
In the New Testament times it
was observed on the first day
of the week (Acts 20:7). By the
mentioning of the day of the
week, we gather that it was a
weekly affair. Had it been a year-
ly, or monthly affair, some other
language would have been used.
The Lord said, “For as often as
i ye eat this bread, and drink this
cup, ye do show the Lord’s death
till he come? (I Corinthians 11:
26). Wouldn’t the safest way
then be to do this on the first
day of every week? This would
not 'be questionable, but there
would be a question on doing
it less frequently!
The Bible being time, there is
a way that is right and cannot
be wrong. That way is God’s
■ ’ way! “There is a way that seem-
eth right unto a man, but the
end thereof are the ways of
death” (Proverbs 16:25). Why
would a man take a chance with
his soul?
Be sure and go to church Sun-
day.
anyone be condemned for insist-
ing on immersion? Suppose it
does matter—then what? Since
the Lord describes baptism as a
burial and resurrection (Romans -
6:4), the safer course to pursue
is for man to be immersed as the
Bible teaches.
What about church member-!
ship? Let us turn our attention
now to the church and use the
same line of reasoning we have
used all along. Does a man have
to be a member of the church to
be saved? Does it really matter?
If it doesn’t matter, then surely
no one would be condemned for
believing and preaching to the
contrary, but if it does matter, i
which would be the safer course?
The Bible tells us that the saved
are added to the church (Acts 2: ■
47). That being the case, church’
membership must be very import-
ant. Christ is said to be Savior
of the body (Ephesians 5:23).
That body is said to be His
church (Ephesians 1:22-23). If
Christ is the Savior of the church,
then the safest course is for a i
person to become a member of
