Course Description
What makes the church different from a social club or a potluck? One of the main differences is the sacraments. The church practices Baptism and Communion as commanded by Jesus as the way to enter the New Covenant and to continually renew our covenant commitment. These are two of the most sacred events in life that God has given to us for our edification. There is broad agreement among all Christians that these two sacraments are the definitive activities of a church. Absent Baptism and Communion, there is no Christian church.
