Well Debbie � its goes along the line of �not my will but thy will� or we can look at as �do not add to the word or take away from it�

YHVH instated Passover for many reasons but the main one was that it was a image (foreshadow) of the Messiah as the sacrificed lamb that took away the sins of the world � once the Messiah fulfilled the Passover we observe it as memorial to Him on Nissan 14 � Yahsuhua gave us personal instructions (commands) on how He wanted us to remember Him � Now, if fulfill those commands and then we add more things to them � like do them more times � do part of them more and other parts less � we are adding to the word � and I know its with good intensions we do these things that give praise and honor and thanks to Yah when we do them � but by adding to the word we are creating �traditions of man� which we have been trying to overcome for some time now � separating Yah�s word from mans traditions is what we asked for and I don�t remember having a pick and chose option. Understanding the truth about communion (what scriptures say) and the practice of what we understand those scriptures to mean should be what we strive for��..

The ol� Church of Christ has a motto that I�ve always thought to be wise it says, �to speak where the bible speaks and to be silent where the bible is silent� we will find that the communion that was commanded for us to observe was on Nissan 14 only - we should then speak where the bible speaks and observe it Nissan 14 only � and we also find that all other variants of the communion observance are the traditions of men and not in scripture � we should then be silent where the bible is silent � and not participate in those traditions.
