Yeah...I think I remember that verse...though I can't recall the chapter and verse: "Thou shalt only partake of the Lord's Supper if thou art a member of a local congregation."
:P
I agree with Bunyan that baptism is not even required for partaking of the Supper!!! Confessing your faith in Christ as Lord and Savior and examing yourself prior to partaking is sufficient. 1 Cor 11:23-32 Differences in Judgment about Water Baptism - No Bar to Communion by John Bunyan

When all souls are saved and all mourners comforted we may venture to discuss recondite theories, but not while graveyards are filling with those who know not God. -- CH Spurgeon
