The supper is for all disciples of Jesus.
1Co 10:16 The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ? The bread that we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ?
1Co 10:17 Because there is one bread, we who are many are one body, for we all partake of the one bread.
When I was studying this issue a few months back, this was one of the "clincher" passages for me. 1 Cor. 10:17 makes it clear that the body of Christ and the Lord's Table are coextensive.
Are believers' children part of the Lord's body? Yes.
Then should they partake of the one bread? Yes, according to this passage.
I wonder if there are any Presbyterian denominations that permit PC? I have considered looking for a Calvinistic Anglican church, but I'm not all that thrilled with their form of church government.
