    Brother, you're just assuming he has an interest in the Lord's Supper. He certainly may be curious about what's going on, but we don't have the right to offer communion so he won't feel rejected.

    If the pastor takes the time to teach about the LS, then he will understand why he is not to participate. It is a beautiful teachable moment. It just might be an education for some of the members, as well.

    I keep thinking about those Corinth FBC members who were dead, and some sick, because they did not treat the LS with proper respect.
