Eucharist: Withholding the communion cup from the laity began in 1416 AD. Withholding the communion cup from the laity began in 1416 AD. A. Christ instructed all to drink the cup: "And when He had taken a cup and given thanks, He gave it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you;" Matthew 26:27 "For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until He comes. ...

Tithing is a method by which the message of Jesus Christ is proclaimed to the world. Malachi 3:8-I0; Matthew 6:21; 23:23; ... ...

Jesus Christ is that foundation according to I Corinthians 3:11. In addition to a good foundation, quality materials, ingredients and workmanship must go into the building of a good life. Let's briefly consider some of these. The first ingredient is strong faith or trust in God. The Christian life has its beginning and conclusion in faith.

461: Lesson 10: Attendance Of Worship
... We are encouraged not to let this happen in Galatians 6:9, "And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not loose heart." But for us to obtain our eternal reward we must be consistent. Our Lord says in Revelation 2:10, "Be faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life." Only if we remain faithful are we promised eternal life. Some people may ask, do I have to attend Sunday night and Wednesday night services? If we really love God and Christ we will never ask such questions. Jesus says in Luke 17:10, "So likewise you, when you have done all those things which you are commanded, say, we ... in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord."

467: Boer, Harry R.: A Short History of the Early Church
... The church recognized the mystery of the person of Christ, but rather than debating the mystery it adored and revered it. This mystery aspect of the person of our Lord has never been lost in genuine Christianity. However, it has often been pressed into the background. This is what happened during the fourth through eighth centuries, when the person of Jesus Christ became a subject of intense theological debate not always very spiritual in character. There were three outstanding reasons for the church's concern with the question: a. The spread of the gospel to the Gentiles introduced Greeks into the church. The educated Greek mind was highly studious and intellectual. It loved to reflect on difficult problems in theology and philosophy. b. Greek philosophy made a sharp distinction between the spiritual and the material. Becoming a Christian did not always alter this Greek way of thinking. For the Greeks the creation of the world and the incarnation of the Son of God were major religious ... ...

Our ministers and clergy are at liberty to hold other personal opinions and Christian doctrinal beliefs, or important matters pertaining to dress code, hair length, observations of days, and informal or formal worship etc., outside of the Articles of Faith without the restraints of ecclesiastical powers. The brotherhood and sisterhood of the CECC in Canada is a product of and a moving force in the great "Second Reformation." This has fanned the blaze of a spiritual fire of religious freedom that has burned brighter through the years. It held spiritual UNITY as its benchmark and goal of returning to a more apostolic format not unlike the first century church. Our brotherhood came into existence because of a growing conviction concerning a united Church, the "One Body of Christ." There was no attempt to do away with any other church or form a new division within the Protestant Movement, but CECC is bringing together all those who want and need a direct relationship with Jesus Christ ... ...

... While the New Testament writers say a great deal about God, Jesus, and the Spirit of each, no New Testament writer expounds on the relationship among the three in the detail that later Christian writers do. The earliest New Testament evidence for a tripartite formula comes in 2 Corinthians 13.13, where Paul wishes that "the grace of the Lord Jesus, the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit" be with the people of Corinth. It is possible that this three part formula derives from later liturgical usage and was added to the text of 2 Corinthians as it was copied. In support of the authenticity of the passage, however, it must be said that the phrasing is much closer to Paul's understandings of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit than to a more fully developed concept of the Trinity. Jesus, referred to not as Son but as Lord and Christ, is mentioned first and is connected with the central Pauline theme of grace. God is referred to as a source of love, not as father, and the Spirit ... ...

The Apostle Paul was given an opportunity to speak before King Agrippa, and tell why he was a believer in Jesus. At the conclusion of his speech, King Agrippa said, "almost thou persuade me to be a Christian". The Apostle Peter gives us some very direct instructions formed in his first letter, I Peter, Chapter 4, verse 16. First he warns us not to be a murderer, or a thief, or an evil doer, or a busy-body in other peoples business. (This is in verse 15). Following these statements he says: "Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf".
