Description:For a thousand years, baptized children partook of the Eucharist before the practice fell off in the Western Church. Following the Reformation, Protestant churches have largely continued to bar children's participation until a confirmation or formalized profession when they are older.In Feed My Lambs , Tim Gallant offers a comprehensive defense of the original practice, outlining the biblical roots of children's participation, as well as answering common objections, such as appeals to 1 Corinthians 11.Building upon the "one bread, one body" theme of 1 Corinthians 10:16-17, Gallant shows that both Old Testament precedents and new covenant realities solidify the paedocommunion case. He also provides an overview of the early practice in church history, demonstrating that the communing of children is no novelty, but the ancient norm.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
