Very true. And the early church even had an entire meal, with each family bringing their own food. There are many different minor variants in the way the Lord's Supper has been taken over the centuries. I tend to agree with raekwon, this is a sprinkling/submersion type of debate...


It just amazes me that some will argue vehemently against one position which has "no scriptural warrant" while advancing in theory, or at least practicing, another position which, as far as anyone can tell, has as little to do with scriptural practice as the first one.
