Puritan Board Freshman
I recently read the below book where the author argues that the church must return to the practice of the Lords Supper taken together with what is commonly called the "agape feast." In short, he argues that the correctives given in 1 Cor 10 were not meant to cause the whole church to separate the 'ritual' aspect of the Supper from the communal feast but was only meant temporarily as a disciplinary action for the church in Corinth who had abused it. He argues that this misunderstanding and abuse of the discipline by church leaders have lead the church away from the fellowship that Christ intended for his Church in the Supper.
Would love to hear everyone's thoughts on the agape feast, the separation of the feast from the Supper, and would appreciate some suggestions for studying this issue further.
