It is my belief that together with verse 41, we see in these verses an enumeration of what we commonly think of as "the means of grace." Baptism, the preaching of the word (apostles' doctrine), fellowship, breaking of bread (communion), and prayer.
Thank you. Does anyone here think that "breaking of bread" here refers to anything other than the Lord's Supper?
I don't think it is a good and necessary inference to relate it to the Lord's Supper. That doesn't mean that it is not, but it cannot be proven.

See this thread: http://www.puritanboard.com/f19/reas...-supper-30013/

Also this sermon by John Weaver is good: http://www.sermonaudio.com/sermoninf...ID=51406231526
