1 Corinthians Week 95

  We had quite the study today in V.15-17, clarifying the importance of the Lord’s Supper / Communion, and our responsibility to approach it in humility and honesty.  We are responsible to keep short sin accounts, and make sure that we harbor no animosity or unforgiveness toward others.  It harms our fellowship with God and … Read more
