Re: Preterism and Communion
Technically, the "communion" practiced in most churches (regardless of theology) isn't biblical.
The Lord's Supper was designed to be a full meal of fellowship, reverence, joy, and celebration as we look forward to dining with the Lord in the Kingdom.
Today... we have a ceremonial wafer and thimble of grape juice (a Catholic innovation).
Since attending house church and actually partaking in The Lord's Supper... I'll never see what we call "communion" the same again. We had a single loaf of bread passed around the table for us to partake of. A brother started to cry as he tore off his peice of bread. That's when I realized the bread... that symbolizes the body of Christ... was being ripped apart by all of us. I think I wept through the entire serving.

I was under the impression for quite some time now that the true "communion" as it should be practiced is virtually indistinguishable from what we now know as Thanksgiving.

At the risk of highjacking my own thread (if it's not already been done...  )
1 Cor 11
20 When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord's supper.
21 For in eating every one taketh before other his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken.
22 What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? what shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not.
I'm thinking there's no way what was occuring in the Corinthian church could have occured with a wafer and tiny cup of grape juice.

It is! It IS a bad thing. There must be at least 3-4 thimbles in a shot.
