THE CURRENT TEACHING OF THE MORMON CHURCH:
All baptized members of the church in good standing, eight years old and older, must partake, water is used instead of wine.
"The Lord’s supper is a testimony of our faithfulness and our determination to keep God’s commandments, and (2) a means whereby we receive "a continuing endowment of the Holy Spirit." Articles of Faith, Pg.175
WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS ABOUT COMMUNION:
1. COMMUNION IS FOR ALL CHRISTIANS:
| All believers are to partake of it. | 1Cr 10:16, 17 |
| Believers are to break bread regularly | Act 2:41, 42 |
| Believers are to partake of it until Jesus comes. | 1Cr 11:26 |
2. THOSE FOR WHOM JESUS DIED SHARE IN COMMUNION:
NOTE JESUS’S OWN WORDS: "And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, ‘This is my body which is given for you; THIS DO IN REMEMBRANCE OF ME.’" "Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, 'this is the new testament in my blood, WHICH IS SHED FOR YOU.'" Luk 22:14-19
