Whole Wheat Communion Bread

[precepts]

If the process of bleaching flour is a modern invention, why is it that there's not even one church today that serves whole wheat communion bread? The process of bleaching flour is post Christ's time, so they must have ate whole wheat bread throughout the entire bible. Food for thought, Christ said the bread was his flesh.

The Lord's Supper, Communion, is not about the flour used for the bread. It goes beyond that.

That's only your opinion. Christ said the bread is his flesh, it makes a world of difference. "Beware of the bread of the Pharisees."

If you think you need to look for the correct type of flour, look for it and make your own bread. Do you have the correct recipe? How legalist are you going to be with it?

Maybe you should go back to the first time you posted this question on May 12. Maybe if you re-post this question several more times you will get the answer you want to get.

The truth is an offence but not a sin.

it must be unleavened bread

 

[WhiteKnuckle]

I can see it probably should be unleavened.

The reason for the unleavened (meaning has no yeast) is the example that "a little leaven leavens the whole batch". Unleavened bread is symbolic of a sinless life. Therefore the bread beaing Jesus' flesh, is symbolic of his body that was broken yet was without sin.

Whole grain, bleached, multi grain, what ever it is,, that doesn't matter.

Now, if you would like to be involved in the ritual as you may see how it might have been back then, do so, and honor God with it.

As for arguing or causing controversy, it's useless and will lead to nothing good.
