Communion
Easton's Bible Dictionary
Fellowship with God (Genesis 18:17-33; Exodus 33:9-11; Numbers 12:7,8 ), between Christ and his people (John 14:23 ), by the Spirit (2 Corinthians 13:14; Philippians 2:1 ), of believers with one another (Ephesians 4:1-6 ). The Lord's Supper is so called (1 Corinthians 10:16,17 ), because in it there is fellowship between Christ and his disciples, and of the disciples with one another. Copyright Statement
