Evangelical.

So in your denomination people don't have to be baptized to receive communion?

Need they believe that "the cup of blessing which we bless, is the communion of the blood of Christ?"

If the "Rainbow Sash" people came to your church --- the self-described gay-affirming Christian group I mentioned at #8 --- they could receive?

For that matter (this is just hypothetical, since I would not want to) --- could I?

Oh. And to pick up something that was dropped a little while back:

What do the keys in Matthew 16 signify?

I know evangelical churches who will not admit an unbaptized person to Communion (if they know the person is unbaptized.)

Evangelical Lutheran Church, ULG 49: “All baptized persons are welcomed to communion when they are visiting in the congregations of this church”.

So I think that varies amongst evangelicals.
