As we've seen the Standards do not teach obligatory weekly observance, but they use Acts 2:42 as a proof text for the Lord's Supper or the means of grace generally at WCF 21.5, 21.6, 26.2, WLC 63, 108, 154, 174, 175 and WSC 50 and 88.
My apologies. John Weaver's sermon does have something to say about the meaning of 'breaking bread', but you are correct that it is a sort of 'polemic'.
No problem. He also had some things to say about deacons that go against what is commonly believed in many cases.
