The Lord’s Day

The Lord’s Day

On the Lord’s own day gather together, break bread, and give thanks, after you have first confessed your offenses, so that your sacrifice may be pure. But let no one who has a quarrel with a companion join you until they have been reconciled, so that your sacrifice is not defiled. For this is what was spoken by the Lord: “In every place and time offer me a pure sacrifice; for I am a great King, says the Lord, and my name is wonderful among the nations.”
