Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the history of close communion within the Baptist Church, tracing its origins and development. The author, a former close communionist, provides a personal account of his own journey toward open communion, offering a compelling argument for the unity of all believers in Christ. The book examines the biblical basis for communion, focusing on Jesus' command to "do this in remembrance of me." The author argues that this command is not conditional upon any particular form of baptism and that it extends to all who believe in Christ. The author also addresses the concerns of those who believe that close communion is necessary to maintain doctrinal purity. He argues that this practice has the unintended consequence of dividing the body of Christ and that it is more important to focus on the unity of believers than on minor doctrinal differences. This book's insights are valuable to anyone interested in the history of the Christian Church, the practice of communion, or the broader issue of Christian unity.
