    Rules for Communion

    Yes, that all makes sense to me. In this case though, children of the same age (8-9 years) are told that unless you have been baptized, you're not allowed to take communion. Where in the bible does it say that baptism goes before communion??? That's the issue I've been trying to understand...

    Rules for Communion

    Hi everyone, I've been a christian for 16 years and I'm married with two children. I have a question that has just recently concerned me in regards to communion. I just recently found out that the church we've been going to doesn't allow the kids to partake in communion unless they have...
